60 ③ Cooking research

After sending the men to the woods in Jomtien and breaking up with Gazran-Rutim, it is finally a study of cooking.

As she turned around behind the house and went between them, there were two ladies waiting for her.

He is the daughter-in-law of his eldest brother Ziza-Lou, Satti Ray-Lou, and his third sister, Lara-Lou.

"I've been waiting for you, Asta. Two of us are here to help you today."

Bright brown hair with slightly shorter, blackish eyes. A clear, laid-back young lady, Sati Ray-Luw, smiles calmly at me.

"Wow, what, those fangs and horns?... Which one did you steal?

Lara-Lew, slightly thirteen, with her bright red hair tied at the top of her head like a ponytail, slaps the same hatred.

"This is a waste of money before this job. Um, where should I keep it?"

"I'll keep it at home if you don't mind. Because it's important to know which part of the body has been dropped."

And how long will Satie Ray-Lew take the jewelry out of my hand and leave?

It is a truly unsavory standing behavior, but thanks to it, I have been alone with your less friendly daughter.

As you can see, Lara-Luu is coming at me with hatred.

"Ha! I thought Rutim was still more decent to pick up than his parents, but I don't think it's sane to let you do something about the wedding! Now Rutim is laughing all over the woods! Try being a parent Luu family, it's a big nuisance!

"Right. Then as far as I'm concerned, I'll have to do my best to make that laugh a little smaller."

As far as I was concerned, I had no choice but to respond with such light-heartedness because I had to be angry at your younger daughter's scolding.

Besides, there's no slight burden on the four Luu sisters, so there's only one thing she doesn't like about me.... Do you have to carry this cross for the rest of your life?

"Well, whatever it is, do me a favor.... but are the other jobs okay? I'm the one who asked for your help, but I didn't think you'd be coming from this hour."

"That's what Lady Tito Min and Mama Meer Ray decided, so you have to! I didn't even want to see your face!

And, after he freshly became a sinister face, he frowned and approached me with Zukazuka.

"... its, fangs and horns"

"Yeah?"

"You're increasing from eight to nine. Did you get that blessed around Gazran-Rutim or Ama-Min, too?

"Oh... uh, can I say... yeah, let's not"

"What the fuck! If you don't tell me, I'll tell my father about that morning!

"Well, that's very troublesome.... I got this from Donda's father."

Occasionally, an eclampsia squid ran over Lara-Luu's boy-like face.

"That can't be right! That's all I hated about you, Donda. Your father couldn't have blessed you! Don't be ridiculous, I mean it when I tear that thing apart!

"Yes, no, but it's the truth. I wasn't being stopped, and I'll be honest with you. This is the blessing Donda-Lou received that night after the feast."

Still, it was rally-crazy for a while, Lara-Lew, but gradually the colour of amazement darkened on its face more than anger.

"... you're not serious, are you? If you're trying to fool me any more, do you really want to check with Daddy Donda? So, if that's a lie, I'll rose all about that day"

"Ahhh. I just have to pray that Donda-Lou will tell me the truth already. I even hope he's not a lying piece of shit for self-esteem!

"No way...... really?

"Yeah," he nodded, and Lara-Lew exploded again.

"What the hell is that! Unbelievable! I didn't bless you for thinking about your father's feelings! Why is your father blessing you? I look like an idiot! Damn it, what the hell, already!

"Oh, uh, calm down... Dad has feelings and thoughts, I'm sure"

"Don't say you're my father or anything! Disgusting!"

"Sorry Nasai.... but this is personal, isn't it? Donda-Lou blessed me, so you don't have to follow it."

"Oh, my God, that! You can't take my blessing!

The more I speak, the more the girl gets.

When I was sighing wondering if there was compatibility, I was suddenly slammed flat in the tip of my nose.

I was put on top of it a little, giva fangs or horns, but one thing.

"... the previous meal was unscrupulously delicious. Before that, the Ziva woman also helped me. Lara-Luu congratulates Asta on the house of Fa"

Is there such a facial blessing or something as being in such a grumpy pole?

But I could gratefully pinch that white blessing.

"Thank you. I'm so happy."

"Hmm!" Lara-Lew snorts in a grand way, turning that way.

I'm sure you don't really care about me. I could realise that being able to acknowledge my existence from someone like that was as pleasant as a blessing from someone who admired me.

Now, the blessing given by Lew's house, ten.

With the exception of the infant Kota, the rest are only Ziza-Lou and Dalm-Lou.

I was wondering if all this would just take a lifetime or something, and Sati Ray-Luw finally came back from the house.

"Thank you for waiting. … oh, you hadn't started yet"

"Yes. I'm about to start. May I take a look at the vegetables in the food pantry first?

"Yeah, go ahead.... Speaking of which, where did I-Fa go? You were with us when you saw us, weren't you?

"Yes. I still didn't remember the location of Lew's house, so I asked Ai-Fa to show me around. You should be chasing Giva in the woods by now."

You can't miss a giva hunting job for five days. Leaving that behind, Ai-Fa left.

There's still a lot of meat left, and loose ends in the fangs and horns.

Still, hunters must hunt Gibba.

If the people by the woods fail to do their job as hunters, Gibba, flooded from the woods, strikes the fields of the kingdom to the west. Stopping it is the stump of the people by the woods - and that's what most of the people think.

Even though the human beings in the chieftaincy have completely forgotten such aspirations.

(Camua-Josh...... I guess I'll just have to make sure I get a chance to see him again and listen to him properly)

I plan to spend five days in this Luu settlement all the way to the feast and immerse myself in culinary research. Ai-Fa must not only hunt, but also do Fa's house work of managing the food vault and collecting Pico leaves.

Dinner is served at the main house of Lou, and we can spend time together in an empty house from night to morning. From morning to dusk after that, it will be a completely different course of action.

Even Diga-Sung, who was thrust down the river bottom, then didn't try to retaliate against Ai-Fa, so I guess even the Sung family can't imitate so viciously.

But when I think of my eyes like that wild dog in Dodd-Sung - I still can't pluck my anxiety.

Of course, it doesn't make a big difference in the circumstances because I sat in Fa's house and when I went into the woods on a hunting job, I acted differently.

Still, I guess we shouldn't stay like this forever, I guess.

"- What have you done, Asta?," called Sati Ray-Luu, and I rush back to this world to be conscious.

"It's nothing. Let's go to the pantry."

Whatever it is, it's work now.

The reward to be earned for this job is, of course, the shared property of Fa's house.

I think I'll make sure you succeed, even for Ai-Fa's sake.

Together with the two women, I set foot in the pantry.

The vegetables as I remember them are arranged on a wooden shelf with no doors.

I've been seeing a lot of things in Inn Town yesterday, so I'm getting more and more familiar with what these guys look like.

Well - you're gonna get along with me. When is that going to happen?

"I'll tell you my idea first," I told the ladies who were supposed to be behind me, testing those vegetables one by one.

"What I want to attack is Poitan."

"Poitan......?

"Yes. Is there any way to manage to make him taste good in the way he's been simmering? We want to start by studying it."

"Why? The baked Poitan is very tasty. I even feel like I can eat as much as I want with that poiton without meat or vegetables."

Oh, did Sati Ray-Luu want an unmatched carbohydrate lover?

I don't know what that feels like, but this research is the most important issue for me.

"But there are a lot of old people at the feast, aren't there? I thought those people might prefer liquid poitane to solid after all. Or so you put out the normal poitan juice as it is. Then the disparity with the younger population emerges. I want to explore whether there are cooking methods that can be enjoyed from the elderly to the young."

"Well......" Sati Ray-Luu only said.

It wasn't such a frightened voice, so I'll be fine.

"I think we're going to have to combine it with a lot of things eventually. Do you have any recommended ingredients? Conversely, I didn't really like the ingredients."

"Pra," I heard you bluffing.

Of course, it is Lara-Luu, the third woman.

A pra is a vegetable as bitter as a pepper.

"Er... Speaking of which, I think Meer Ray-Lew said Lara-Lew or Rud-Lew didn't like the pra or something. Maybe you don't like bitterness?

"Ugh! Why do you have to complain when you answered the question!

"I'm sorry. Feedback is appreciated without objection."

"... Leelo. Tarapa. Zozo. I hate it."

"Yeah, yeah. Leelo is a vanilla used in smoked meat, right? Which ingredients are Tarapa and Zozo?

"Tarapa is its red and big fruit. Zozo is the brown mass underneath."

Looking at the better shown to Sati Ray-Luu, Tarapa was a large, bumpy tomato-like fruit like a pumpkin, and Zozozo was a brown chunk like a snake wrapped around a tuna.

They are very familiar vegetables because of their strong apparent impact.

"Hmm. What do you think of these two dishes by Satti Ray-Lew?

"Right...... Tarapa is very sour. Zozo has a very strong smell. I'm not bad at either - I think Tarapa felt better in a pot that didn't add poitin"

"Ugh."

"Tarapa is really sour, so it would have been easier to eat through the throat if it had been done in a pot that didn't contain poiton. I think Zozo - without poitin, if it doesn't smell like meat - even erases other smells and tastes bad."

"Wow! That's specific!

"Because I taught Asta something called a 'delicious meal'. Until then, I never cared about the difference between Tarapa and Zozo."

And, Sati Ray-Luu giggles.

Next to it, Lara-Luu is looking like he's going to tread again, even in the community.

"What the fuck! If this is the case, you don't need me! You and Satie Ray should get along!

"Lara, the words don't come out so well, it doesn't immediately cause a shortness of breath."

Satti Ray-Lew places her hands gently on the thin shoulder of her sister-in-law.

"Though you are powerful at feeling all sorts of things, you are not very good at words. But instead of being good at using words, I'm a person whose feelings don't move that much. If we work together like that, I'm sure we can do much more to help Asta than to work together one by one."

Satti Ray-Luu and I were about the thinnest of the Luu family - but the words alone made it possible that I was no longer a woman who was just calm and clear.

That's Ziza-Lou's companion - and if I think about it, I'm even a little scared.

What the hell kind of person does that Ziza-Lou and Kota-Lou, born between this Sati Ray-Lou, grow up to be? Think of it as something you'd like to see a little bit of, if possible.

"Is that it? Speaking of which, is it a boy named Kota-Lu? Are you a girl?

When I say it, you two are screwed.

"No, you know by name. It's up to the boys."

No, I don't know.

"Yes. My body is a little small, but it's a boy. We are not very blessed with our children, so I am glad that the first Kota I was given was a boy"

Sati Ray-Luu's face, who answers so, was truly delightful and proud.

Will that Kota-Lou eventually receive the seat of the head of the household, who will eventually be taken over from Donda-Lou to Ziza-Lou?

I don't know - yet, I get emotional.

"... oh, this zozozo smells amazing. It's more like medicine than ingredients. If you put this in the pan, it sure wouldn't blow up any other flavors."

And I decide to switch my head to reality.

"Right. If from now on you will always be able to eat odorless Giva meat, you may no longer be able to use it. Because Leelo and Zozo are just like they were putting in to get rid of the smell."

"I see. Then let me take those two dishes off the candidate once and for all. What about this tarapa? There were vegetables of the same color in my country called tomatoes, but there were so many uses."

"Really? Sure smells good, and I didn't hate the sour flavor, but I think the pot I couldn't put in was tastier than the pot I put in the poiton"

"Oh, maybe that..."

Imagine the taste of pounding tomatoes in poitan juice like that flour dissolved in water, and I got laid off too.

It may be versatile, but there may not be a turn for this one.

"So once Tarapa is excluded, too, he said. Then on the contrary, isn't there a recommended vegetable?

The two of you think "hmm" to this question.

"If it's a pot that doesn't add poitin, I can think of a few, but when it comes to simmering with poitin..."

"That's right. If that sounds delicious, I would have smacked him every day. He said he added a lot of vegetables."

And that's where Lara-Lew kept saying it.

"What's going on?," Sati Ray-Luu asks gently.

"No... it doesn't change the taste... there was something I liked the most"

"Well. Which vegetables?

"No, but after all, it's nothing! I don't even know why you liked it! The taste hasn't really changed at all!

"I'm kind of curious about that. Can you tell me which ingredient you want?

Did my story sound too steep, Lara-Lew doesn't even look like this old lady's daughter, she looks a little anxious.

But that laid-back fingertip points me to the deepest part of the food bin in a bit of a nasty way.

Oh, this is it? And I rounded my eyes.

I waited for a moment of secluded attention in a dim corner of the food pantry, the ingredient - no less than Zozo and Tarapa - left a strong presence in me with its apparent impact, a giant gobo of two meters, also known as "Gigo".
