Anime: My daily life traveling through time and space

(It’s okay, it hasn’t been that long. When was the last time I promised to teach him how to cook? Let me think… It’s been too long, I can’t remember, forget it, I won’t think about it anymore)

"Kubo-san, you brought me some watermelon!"

Shiina Mahiru picked up a big watermelon with both hands.

"Oh, I almost forgot, this is a gift for you to teach me how to cook. Why don't we split the watermelon in half and put it in the refrigerator first!"

Kubo Nagisa walked over and took the watermelon from Shiina Mahiru and went to the kitchen.

"Kubo-kun, are you okay?"

“No problem, no problem”

Shiina Mahiru: "That's good!"

Shiina Mahiru was relieved to hear such a positive answer from Kubo Nagisa, after all, Kubo Nagisa is an all-round player in school, even if she can't cook at home, she should have no problem cutting a watermelon.

(I feel like there is something wrong)

Kubo Nagisa put the watermelon in the kitchen and looked for a knife.

"I found Mr. Saiki, can you lend me your knife?"

Kubo Nagisa picked up a bag of knives and waved them in front of her. The brightness of the knife was so high that it could even reflect light and serve as a mirror.

"Yoshi"

[Wait a moment]

Qi Mu came to the kitchen but still worried

[Forget it, let me do it]

Kubo Nagisa [Are you worried about me, Saiki? Hehe]

(Yeah, that’s right, I’m worried)

"It's okay, Saiki-kun. Don't you still trust me?"

[Yeah, that’s right, I just don’t trust you]

Kubo Nagisa patted her chest and said, "It's just cutting a watermelon, it won't be a big deal."

Shiina Mahiru walked quietly to the side. Since even Saiki was worried, she could be sure of one thing. Since he was so far away, he probably rarely went into the kitchen.

"Okay, okay, let me take a look."

Kubo Nagisa didn't take it seriously. She stuck out her tongue, licked her lips, picked up the knife or watermelon, and was looking for a position.

Then he fixed the watermelon with one hand and stretched out his right hand with a kitchen knife as if to attack someone and kill him with one blow.

“Hey!!”

puff

The kitchen knife was stabbing deeply into the watermelon, and red juice was slowly oozing out of the wound, just like a murderer stabbing someone's heart and causing blood to ooze out. This first-time method made Saiki and Kubo Nagisa tremble with fear.

(This is how to cut a watermelon)

"Ah! No no, let me do it."

Shiina Mahiru saw Kubo Nagisa's unique way of cutting watermelon and walked aside to take the kitchen knife, saying: "Kubo-san, let me do it. You... you are so scared to watch me cutting watermelon. You should just rest aside!"

"Ah? But..."

Kubo Nagisa wanted to say something else.

Shiina Mahiru explained: "It's okay, go ahead. You are a guest, how can you let a guest do that?"

Kubo Nagisa always felt that this sentence was weird, but she still sat on the sofa obediently.

But he still turned his head and floated on the sofa to look at Shiina Mahiru. He slowly cut the watermelon in half from the top, and then cut the other half of the watermelon in half again, and then cut it into pieces and put them on the plate. Finally, he wrapped the watermelon that was not yet on the plate in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator.

"What's going on? It's similar to the way I cut the watermelon just now! Saiki-kun, aren't you right?"

Qi Mu nodded in agreement.

[Yeah, that’s about right…]

Shiina Mahiru untied her apron, hung it up, and placed a few slices of watermelon on the plate on the table.

Shiina Mahiru: "Watermelon is coming!"

Chapter 126 Kubo Nagisa starts learning to cook

……

After the three of them ate a piece of watermelon each, Shiina Mahiru prepared to leave. It looked like Saiki was going to teach Kubo Nagisa how to cook, so they wouldn't have to prepare lunch themselves.

"Shiina-san, are you going back?"

Kubo Nagisa originally thought that she and Saiki would stay from morning till night, but she didn't expect that they would go back at noon.

"Yeah, you guys should prepare lunch next, I have to go back first too."

In fact, she really wanted Qi Mu to ask her to stay, but she was too embarrassed to tell Qi Mu.

Shiina Mahiru stood up and said to Saiki, "Well, Saiki-san, I have to go back first."

Saiki said casually

[Why don’t we just eat here at noon? We have to prepare lunch anyway.]

(Anyway, Shiina-san usually takes good care of me, so I can ask him to stay for lunch, but I don’t know if he wants to. If he doesn’t want to, there’s no need to force him to stay…)

“Is… is that so?”

Shiina Mahiru said excitedly, then lowered her voice and tried to restore the corners of her mouth that had been raised but still let others see that she was very happy.

"Well...Since Saiki-san said so, I won't be polite, but then let me help you!"

(Looks very happy)

Kubo Nagisa looked at Shiina Mahiru who was trying her best to hide her feelings and quietly retreated to the side of Hatake, and whispered: "Shiina-san seems very happy!"

[Yeah, maybe I’m hungry.]

“How can you understand it this way?”

Although the conversation between Kubo Nagisa and Saiki was quiet, Shiina Mahiru still heard it.

Shiina Mahiru looked at Saiki with a hint of resentment in his eyes

Shiina Mahiru [It's not because I'm hungry]

(Why do you look at me like this?)

Shiina Mahiru: "So what are you going to do?"

Saiki looks at Kubo Nagisa

[Well, what do you want to learn?]

Kubo Nagisa: "Well, anything you teach me will do, but please keep it simple!"

[Simple, huh? Hmm——]

Saiki opened the refrigerator and looked at the dishes inside and said

[Then let’s make fried udon noodles]

"Okay, okay, I really like eating udon noodles."

Kubo Nagisa said with a smile

"Udon noodles, I've never eaten hyped ones."

“But we’ve run out of udon noodles at home.”

Shiina Mahiru reminded

Saiki opens the refrigerator. Okay, the udon noodles are indeed out of stock.

"Oh, it's all used up. What a pity. Should I change it to something else?"

Kubo Nagisa was a little disappointed, and then she thought carefully about what Shiina Mahiru had just said. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Shiina Mahiru with a little confusion.

Kubo Nagisa [What happened to Shiina-san? She knows the Saiki family so well, she looks like the hostess here]

……

[It’s okay if you don’t have it, just start with the noodles]

Qi Mu took out flour from the kitchen.

[Let’s get ready to start]

"Oh!"

Qi Mu took out the high-gluten flour.

[Kubo-san asks him to bring the iron bowl over]

"Ok"

Kubo Nagisa took out a large iron bowl and handed it to Saiki

[Making udon noodles? Just adjust the ratio. Water should be around 40%!]

Saiki poured the high-gluten flour into a bowl, and finally asked Kubo Nagisa to knead and fold it.

As for why Qi Mu didn't do it himself, it was definitely not because he wanted the beautiful girl to make it more delicious. They were all the same. After all, someone else taught him how to make it. How could he wrap it all by himself? If he had to do it, he would have done it more easily.

"Ok"

After Saiki put in the appropriate amount of salt, Kubo Nagisa began to rub it in the bowl.

As Saiki explained, he added appropriate amounts of water to make it easier for Kubo Nagisa to knead the dough so that it would not be too dry or too wet.

"Qi Mu-san, my hands are so sticky, did you add too much water?"

Kubo Nagisa felt that the hand was sucked tightly on her and she couldn't get away at all.

[No, it's fine. Just rub it harder and it will be fine.]

After a long time, Kubo Nagisa felt her hands were sore from pressing, and she stopped only when Saiki said it was enough.

[Well, barely OK]

“Just barely!”

[Don't complain]

Qi Mu arranged the dough and put it aside

[Next, let it rest for 30 minutes and prepare the dishes first.]

"What dish will Saiki-san prepare?"

Shiina Mahiru stood at the refrigerator door and asked

[Then bring green peppers, carrots, onions, and mushrooms, and a book and some pork!]

"Ok"

Shiina Mahiru took out a vegetable basket and took some vegetables to the kitchen and put them away.

“Great, I can finally cut vegetables.”

Kubo Nagisa said excitedly

“I’ve been waiting for this for a long time.”

Kubo Nagisa picked up the knife and said, "Saiki-san, I'll start by cutting the onions."

Saiki seemed to have some bad memories, remembering the last time Kubo Nagisa raised her knife and slashed it with such confidence that she almost cut off his finger, and he shuddered unconsciously.

Shiina Mahiru had already picked up the onion and placed it on the table. She skillfully peeled off the outermost layer of the onion skin and picked up a knife to demonstrate.

Kubo Nagisa [Although I have never cut an onion properly at home, I have practiced the technique of peeling onions hundreds of times and my onion peeling skills are now very good]

(Only Bo Onion has great skills)

[Wait for me a moment]

"What's wrong?"
