My Pokémon Story of Seasons

For dinner, Tong Hua decided to use the Baron potatoes and cabbage she had harvested that morning.

So he steamed the Baron potatoes, which were full of potato starch. Following the method he had seen in his previous life, he coated the mashed potatoes with flour and pressed them into dough.

This type of noodle, made entirely from potato starch, is called Hosseok Udon.

To recreate the taste from her memory as much as possible, Tong Hua also added chopped potatoes to the broth when cooking the noodles, giving the mellow and rich soup a more diverse texture.

Noodles alone are not enough; side dishes are also essential.

Fresh cabbage is shredded and quickly sautéed in olive oil. Then, potato pancakes, shaped and baked, are added, and a dish made 99% potatoes is complete.

【Gourmet Udon: Quality B. Made with premium Baron potatoes, this udon noodle dish features a springy texture and a natural sweetness. Paired with golden, crispy potato cakes and a rich, flavorful broth, it creates a wonderful potato trio.】

……

"Come on! Try it!"

Tong Hua brought out several bowls of udon from the kitchen, but before she could distribute them, they were all snatched up by several Pokémon.

The foam squirrel was the first to take the bowl. Its little nose twitched, and its eyes immediately lit up. "Terror!"

Grass Turtle also picked up his chopsticks and slurped it up. It was full of potato flavor, and the noodles were incredibly chewy and bouncy, bouncing around in his mouth and even hitting his teeth.

The two Celebi clearly eat a lot and even know the principle of drinking soup before eating noodles.

Elegantly scoop up a spoonful of broth with a small spoon. The umami essence of the potatoes is fully infused into the soup, making it thick and rich. In addition, you can occasionally taste bits of mashed potato, which makes the texture even richer and elevates the taste experience to several levels.

"La beep!"

At the same time, Big Milk Pot, Sweet Bamboo, and Tuotuo also took a bite, and their reactions were basically the same as Silapi and the others.

The potato pancakes served as a side dish are soft and sticky inside, while the surface is crispy and caramelized.

Seeing that everyone was praising the shaved ice udon, Tong Hua smiled and took a bite.

"Mmm, delicious!"

……

The next day, Tong Hua went to collect the milk she had squeezed herself from the large milk tank early in the morning, delivered it to Renmei, and then began preparing breakfast.

Today, Tong Hua specially made a sandwich to boost her energy, just like yesterday. This was not only for the added benefit, but also to save time making lunch.

After all, according to the plan set yesterday, the tasks for the next few days will be very heavy.

After breakfast, Tong Hua and the Pokémon watered the fields together.

"Game!"

When it comes to watering, the grass-fed turtle is the best.

Seeing that her help was not very efficient, Tong Hua gladly gave up her position and handed over the work in the field to the more suitable Cao Miao Gui and Tian Zhu Zhu.

As for himself, he rode his tug-of-war to go outside and find stones for paving the road.

Foam Squirrel and two Celebi followed along, hoping to be of use like the other Pokémon.

It's not just because they want to do their part for Fairy Tale Ranch, but also because they ate sandwiches! Now they're bursting with energy and have nowhere to vent it!

"La beep!"

Fortunately, the rabbis quickly found something they could do: using their superpowers to select suitable stones from the river and transport them back to the ranch.

These stones, used to pave roads, are much easier to walk on than the muddy paths that once existed on the pasture.

The gravel is laid on the road, and then the worm-shaped metal roller, weighing hundreds of kilograms, rolls over it, transforming into an earthworm-shaped road roller that perfectly compacts the road surface.

The foam squirrel was also busy, checking the smoothness of the road and whether the edges were intact with Tong Hua.

After the inspection, shallow drainage ditches need to be dug on both sides of the road to prevent water accumulation from softening the roadbed.

The group worked tirelessly on the ranch, moving stones, leveling the road, and digging drainage ditches. Even the large milk tanks on the pasture couldn't resist coming over to help compact the road by rolling them.

They only rested for half an hour in between, and worked from morning until evening before finally paving the roads in the ranch.

"call……"

Tong Hua stood in front of the ranch gate. The road started from here and connected to the northernmost Wind-Swept Forest.

"I can't believe it was completed in just one day..."

One of the most troublesome infrastructure projects was completed in just one day.

A top-tier construction team—I mean, a top-tier infrastructure team—their talent is just beginning to show!

On the third and fourth days, Tong Hua carried out his daily tasks while dismantling the old Pokémon house and collecting wood from the fast-growing forest to prepare for rebuilding the new house.

Meanwhile, the second batch of crops sown were also growing vigorously. To prevent wild birds from stealing them, Tong Hua also placed several scarecrows in the field.

Life went on very fulfillingly. Although he was always busy with work, making Tong Hua wish he could stretch the day into 48 hours, the feeling of improving his life little by little with his own hands was something he couldn't resist.

Finally, on the tenth day after arriving from the past, Tong Hua had gathered enough wood. He could begin constructing the deluxe Pokémon House!

"Okay, let's get started!"

The new cabin was chosen to be located next to where Big Milk Tank and Drooling currently live, which is where the old cabins originally stood.

After all, when it was originally designed, Acorn was an improvement on these old Pokémon houses.

This way, the original foundation and pillars can be used to the greatest extent, saving Tong Hua a lot of money.

So, the first step in building a new Pokémon house is to check the foundation!

"The base looks quite sturdy; it appears to be an independent column pit." Tong Hua inspected the base while comparing it with the location of the load-bearing columns on the design drawings.

After confirming that the foundation could be reused, Tong Hua suddenly discovered that one of the pillars was obviously infested with insects and could no longer be used.

So he removed the old pillar, picked up a long log that had been cut to the correct shape, and used it as the new pillar, installing it on the base.

Whether it was because he had been eating too much nutritious food lately or because his physique had been enhanced by some kind of magic, Tong Hua managed to install the several-meter-tall pillar by himself, even though it was a bit difficult for him.

"Boohoo!" The Pokémon watching from the sidelines, especially the pink Celebi, were shocked. She hadn't even used her psychic powers to help yet, how could she be all set up already?

Moreover, in her impression, Tong Hua shouldn't have such great strength, right?

Could it be... that my memory is faulty? Or...?

Pink Celebi fell into deep thought, while the other Pokémon began to help Tong Hua build the main framework.

Building a house, especially the initial process of constructing the main framework, is not fundamentally different from building with blocks.

It simply replaces building blocks with wooden boards, and replaces the connecting protrusions with nails and various mortise and tenon structures.

Moreover, with the blueprints, even a Slowpoke could build it by following the drawings.

Of course, this is not meant to mock Slowpoke...

With the help of Turtwig, Worm, and other Pokémon, the main framework was quickly completed. Tong Hua stood in front, wiping the sweat from his brow, and looked with satisfaction at the deluxe house that was beginning to take shape.

"Next are the walls and the roof..."

It was already noon, and Tong Hua took out sandwiches to share with everyone.

The energy boost from the sandwiches was, in Tong Hua's opinion, even more invigorating than caffeine. After wolfing down their food, the Pokémon were immediately back to their energetic construction work.

The foam squirrel and the grass turtle each delivered tools to Tong Hua precisely in their own way, while the worm used its body as a temporary scaffold, allowing Tong Hua to easily reach higher places.

The two Celebi even used their superpowers, one levitating and fixing the wooden plank, and the other using telekinesis to hammer in the nails. The teamwork was incredibly efficient.

"In the end, only the doors and windows were left..."

The cabin's design did not use glass windows, but rather blinds made of wooden slats.

Just like adding the finishing touch to a painting, this final step is taken with great solemnity.

Tong Hua carefully installed the window, then took the tools and nails from the foam squirrel and carefully embedded the hinge into the window frame...

Completed!

You're done!
