A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 943 Won“t This Get Back To The Wind Forest?

“Huh…!?”

Shirley was stunned, and almost jumped up. Her usually calm demeanor changed instantly as she waved her hands, and said, “You can’t make this sort of comments out of the blue, Little Amy. Why would I be sleeping with him?!”

“But if you’re not sleeping with him, then why are you changing your clothes in the bathroom? It’s still not yet time to open the restaurant, so my father wouldn’t let the customers enter in advance. Furthermore, he wouldn’t have allowed others into the bathroom.” Amy had a knowing look on her face.

“This…” Shirley was taken aback. Even though the situation wasn’t what she had described, why did she feel that it was a very reasonable explanation?

“Amy!” Anna’s voice came from the stairway. Anna, who had already changed into that blue Lolita dress, poked her head out of the stairway. Then, she ran up the stairs with a smile and looked at Shirley in the bathroom. With her eyes shining bright and mouth slightly open in wonder, she said, “Wow, Big Sister Shirley. You look beautiful after you changed into the uniform!”

“Uniform?” Amy looked at Anna with some surprise and doubt, and said, “Big Sister Anna, why are you in the restaurant too?”

“Big Sister Shirley and I have become the restaurant’s staff. Our clothes are uniforms supplied by Uncle Mag,” Anna said with a smile.

Shirley recovered her calm demeanor. With a slight nod, she said, “That’s it.” Then, she looked at Anna with gratitude. She didn’t expect her to get her out of the mess.

“So, that was it.” Amy looked at Shirley with a tinge of disappointment, and silently said to herself, “There goes a chance to report an important piece of information to Sister Irina.”

However, Amy’s expression quickly lit up again. She grabbed Anna’s hand, and happily said, “That’s fantastic. I will be able to see Big Sister Anna every day.”

“Yup.” Anna had an equally happy smile on her face.

…

Mag was walking around in the market when he saw a huge eggplant as big as a winter melon, and said in his mind, “System, see how cheap these fresh big eggplants are. They cost less than one copper coin for 500g, and they’re nicely shaped and huge. We will need gene mutations to grow such huge eggplants on Earth, right? I have to buy more of this good stuff.”

“Host, you must be wondering why you still couldn’t bring out the best of the eggplant with garlic sauce as you had in mind, despite you having done your best with all the ingredients and steps?” the system asked calmly.

“Hmm?” Mag’s steps faltered, and he hesitantly asked, “So, System, are you going to give me the complete recipe?”

“No. The system is very happy that the host had come up with the best eggplant with garlic sauce recipe successfully by researching it with his own effort and enquiring mind.

“Now, you do not lack the technique, but the best eggplant. Nothing’s good when it’s done to the extreme. An eggplant as big as a winter melon can no longer be called an eggplant. An eggplant that can’t be put on a grill is an eggplant that has lost its soul.

“Also, the eggplant grown by this system came from the south slope of the Flying Fountain Mountain on the Dragon Islands, where there’s plenty of sunshine. The volcanic ash had supplied the eggplants with rich soil and nutrients. The eggplants have combined the strong points of both the long eggplants and round eggplants, and preserved the taste of the Earth eggplants perfectly. It’s the best choice for making eggplant with garlic sauce and spicy grilled eggplant!” the system said in a distinct passionate voice of a salesperson.

Mag furrowed his brows slightly, but he managed to calmly respond, “How much does your eggplant cost per 500g?”

“The excellent eggplants are sold individually as a single piece. The eggplants produced by this system are supple, nutritious—”

“How much per piece? How heavy is one?” Mag interrupted calmly.

“35 copper coins for a piece, and they weigh approximately 400g per piece. The price is marked clearly, honest and non-negotiable!” the system said seriously.

“It’s too expensive. I came up with this dish by myself, so you can’t decide on the ingredients. I would rather buy the huge eggplant that only costs one copper coin per 500g. There’s not much difference in texture.” Mag pursed his lips and walked to the seller at the side decisively.

“Hey, hey, hey! There’s no need to rush. We can still negotiate the price!” The system panicked. “You did come up with this dish by yourself. But, as a person who strives to be the God of Cookery, how could you allow the food that you cook to have flaws when you could achieve perfection?”

“30 copper coins for a piece, and not a single coin more. At the same time, you are going to open the purchase restrictions for the other ingredients for making eggplant with garlic sauce.” Mag’s lips curled a little.

“D-deal!” The system spat out through clenched teeth.

“Good.” Mag walked past the smiling vegetable seller and straight toward the entrance of the market.

It was the best to get the ingredients that the system provided. The little flaw in the texture indeed made Mag feel a little uncomfortable. Being a perfectionist was such a bother.

Mag saw a few workers from the Food Association adjusting the magical screen when he was cycling back to the restaurant. It looked like the new Delicious Cuisine Rankings would be going online soon.

Mag even ran into Firis along the way. Mag gave her a ride since the child seat removed yesterday was not put back yet.

“T-thank you… Boss,” Firis, who had never got so close to a man before, stammered with a blush when she got off the bicycle.

“You’re welcome.” Mag opened the door with a smile and prepared to go in with the bicycle.

“Miss Sally… Is she gone?” Firis suddenly asked in a soft voice.

Mag stopped, turned around, and looked at Firis. He nodded, and replied, “Yes, she went back last night.”

“Hmm…” Firis bit her lips, and her eyes reddened.

“Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.” Mag patted her shoulder gently, and went in with the bicycle.

“Princess… Are you still alright?” Firis stood at the restaurant’s entrance for a moment to calm her emotions before she opened the door and went in.

Firis! Shirley, who was drinking water gracefully, almost choked when she saw Firis walk through the door. She coughed, and her face turned red.

Firis, who had just walked in, was stunned to see such a beautiful elf, and a little elf too. How did they get in when the restaurant was not open yet?

“This is Big Sister Firis, also known as Big Sister Beansprout. She’s in charge of chopping vegetables and slicing ducks. Her knife skills are marvellous, only Father is slightly better than her.” Amy introduced her to Anna and Shirley. Then, she looked at Firis, and said, “Big Sister Beansprout, this is Big Sister Anna and Big Sister Shirley. They will be the employees of the restaurant from today onwards.”

Firis quickly nodded slightly, and said, “Nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you, Big Sister Firis,” Anna greeted her cordially.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . Fɪre

“Nice to meet you.” Shirley nodded slightly, and tried to make her appearance appear calm. Although she knew what happened in the Wind Forest, she was still taken aback and shocked to meet Firis directly!

Will the embarrassing news of me being a waitress get back to the Wind Forest? Shirley looked at Firis with a worried look.
