Chapter 390: Jinghe's Family Feast!
Chapter 390: Jinghe's Family Feast!
January 10th, a light snowfall.
"Howl~"
The Ice Kyuubi gracefully leaped around the cat trees scattered throughout the house and finally landed on the soft sofa, curling up into a ball. It began to clean its claws with its tongue and then used its claws to wash its face.
"Wuu~"
The Swift Dragon happily rolled around on the floor, then found its favorite blanket and sniffed it enthusiastically.
Confirmed.
Ice Kyuubi was a "felid," and Swift Dragon was a "canid."
Rotom skillfully slipped into the cleaning robot and began diligently cleaning the house.
Charcoal Little Servant sat on a small stone stool in the living room, holding a Pokemon Egg, and started gently wiping it with a handkerchief while emitting a warm heat from its body, as if the underfloor heating was turned on.
Gigaforg sat beside it, occasionally picking at a small piece of metal from somewhere and comparing it to Charcoal Little Servant's body, as if measuring something.
"Kuu~zzZ"
Bear Pupil sat in front of the TV, swaying drowsily under the influence of the warm air.
Jinghe, along with the Attentive Servant Siblings and Creamy Frost, headed into the kitchen.
The occasional sounds and wafting aromas indicated that they were preparing some food.
Outside the window, a light rain and snow mix fell, and a hazy white mist rose from the streets.
"Hengga~"
Gramps poked his head in through the door, skillfully opened it, and welcomed Sharon inside.
"Are you here?"
Hearing the noise, Jinghe popped out of the kitchen.
"Yes."
Sharon's face slightly flushed, and with Gramps' eager assistance, she took off her coat and windbreaker, revealing her long and alluring curves.
Jinghe wanted to ask, who said Sharon had a bad figure?
"The snow in Carnaze isn't cold at all."
She said with a smile.
"After all, Hoenn is further south than Sinnoh, and if it weren't for the sea, we might not even see snow."
Noticing Lie Yao Lu Qian and Lucario following Sharon, Jinghe naturally withdrew his gaze from her body.
After capturing those Pokemon hunters earlier, Jinghe, as the initiator of the operation, went to the Carnaze police station to file a simple report.
Then he returned home to prepare dinner.
Meanwhile, Sharon, led by Gramps, explored Carnaze City.
In Gramps' words, he wanted Sharon to see the "kingdom" he had built! The Lady Guardian's keen ability to detect strangers' activities was also related to the stray Pokemon that Gramps had "tamed" and were active on the streets of Carnaze City.
The cafe would provide them with free food, and they were happy to help out occasionally, such as distributing flyers.
"Hmm,"
Sharon nodded, "We went to the supermarket and bought some ingredients."
As she spoke, Gramps began taking out bags of items from his mouth.
"You went to the supermarket?" Jinghe's eyes widened slightly.
His gaze swept over Sharon and Gramps.
A "decision-making difficulty" patient and a "non-chooser" going to the supermarket?
Seeing Gramps had already taken out seven or eight large bags and was still pulling out more, Jinghe realized that the purple-skinned little fatty had taken advantage of his absence to buy all the things he usually didn't allow or restricted, all at once through Sharon.
"Did you bring the entire supermarket here?" Jinghe couldn't help but ask.
Sharon smiled, "Gramps likes it."
"Hengga~!"
Exactly!
The purple-skinned little fatty floated behind Sharon and started massaging her shoulders, looking like he had found a new "patron" and a new "sponsor."
"Besides," Sharon winked playfully, "It's all for us to eat anyway."
"So much...?" Jinghe felt a slight headache coming on.
"Roar!!"
Lie Yao Lu Qian, standing behind Sharon with his arms crossed, growled and glared at Jinghe coldly, revealing his sharp claws.
My family's money was spent on this, better be delicious, or else my claws will have something to say!
Although it seemed like a threat, the act of swallowing saliva betrayed his true thoughts.
Jinghe's cooking skills were well-known, which was why Gramps and Sharon bought so many ingredients at once.
"Please~" Sharon said in a coquettish tone.
Who could resist that?
"Don't worry!" Jinghe nodded.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he said, "Everyone, change locations!"
With so many things, there wasn't enough space in the house; they needed to go to the garden.
The little ones cheered in unison and sprang into action.
Even Bear Pupil, who had been dozing off, joined them in a daze after his bubble popped, still a bit confused.
In the garden.
"Hengga~ Hengga~"
Gramps and Swift Dragon pulled a large oilcloth, setting up a canopy in the air, with Lie Yao Lu Qian, Roserade, Mewtwo, and Gigaforg supporting it from the ground.
Roserade and Mewtwo used sticks to prop up the oilcloth, Lie Yao Lu Qian straightened it, and then Gigaforg secured it to the ground with ropes and nails.
Jinghe, along with the Attentive Servant Siblings, Creamy Frost, and Rotom, began bustling around the table under the large tent.
With so many ingredients, so many mouths to feed, and the weather, nothing could be more suitable than a hotpot.
"Kyuubi, the ice will enhance the flavor of the beef."
Jinghe handed over several plates of freshly cut beef from Rotom to Ice Kyuubi.
In his past life, there was a type of "ice hotpot" that used ice to stimulate the beef, enhancing its flavor.
The menu also included beef tripe, beef stomach, and fresh shrimp, which would taste even better after a quick freeze.
"Oooowwww~~"
Ice Kyuubi exhaled a cold breath, quickly forming a small "iceberg" beside it.
With its focus on appearance and style, it hummed a little tune, using its tail to carefully arrange the ingredients.
Not to mention, with this plating skill, Ice Kyuubi could easily land a position in a top-tier restaurant.
"Bear Pupil, these are yours. Make them into meatballs!"
"Koo~!"
Transformed into the cafe's "Double Flower Red Stick," Bear Pupil looked serious, picking up two wooden sticks and starting to pound.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Maxado, stop daydreaming. You're in charge of deveining the shrimp."
"Ma...Maxado?"
Maxado, sitting under the table, stared at the large bowl of shrimp that had suddenly appeared in front of him, blinking in surprise.
As the esteemed "Shadow Guide," you're asking me to devein shrimp for you?! Maxado was furious.
In a fit of anger, he removed the veins from the entire bowl of shrimp!
"Maxado!"
Maxado crossed his arms and harrumphed.
Hmph, do you really think this "Guide" is easy to bully?
As a Ghost-type Pokemon, Maxado's shrimp deveining skills were comparable to Gramps's.
Bang!
"There's another bowl."
"
How dare you!
In another fit of anger, he angrily deveined the shrimp in the second bowl.
"Charcoal Little Servant, bring me two more pieces of charcoal."
"Guka~"
Charcoal Little Servant immediately placed the red-hot charcoal in the giant bronze pot in front of Jinghe.
This pot was a masterpiece crafted by Gigaforg, ensuring high quality.
"Add two more pieces of charcoal to the grill over there, and Lucario, remember to flip the food, or it'll burn."
"Lucario!"
Transformed into a barbecue chef, Lucario, wearing an apron, responded with a sullen grunt.
He was pondering a question.
When did I start following this human's commands and even feeling a sense of familiarity with him?
Looking at Jinghe, Lucario shook his head vigorously.
It must be an illusion!
This meal was for Bai Cai and the others!
Lucario found a reason to convince himself.
"Did you grow these turnips yourselves?"
At that moment, Sharon was squatting by a flower bed in the corner of the garden, looking at the ice turnips and black turnips growing there, feeling a bit puzzled.
She seemed to have read about these turnips in some ancient history books.
Apparently, they were also connected to a ruler who once reigned over the Galar region.
"Hmm? Oh, yeah, pull out some turnips to add a fragrant touch to the hot pot. These turnips are pretty tasty." Jinghe realized.
We also have top-notch ingredients.
"Oh." Sharon obediently pulled out a few turnips.
"They seem to be the food of a legendary Pokemon?"
"Hey, they're just turnips. Eat as you please." Jinghe waved his hand, speaking with a "grand" gesture.
Actually, Sharon wanted to ask if the food of a legendary Pokemon was something they could eat. But considering Jinghe's personality, she assumed he had already tried it, so she didn't pursue the question further.
"You've worked hard, Grotle."
Jinghe looked down at Grotle, who was fanning him, and said with a smile.
"Ssshhhh~o(////▽////)q"
If Sharon could make Ghost-type Pokemon so attentive, then Jinghe could also gain Grotle's favor. He couldn't be that bad, right?
He couldn't help but wonder why he seemed to have a special affinity with Ghost-type Pokemon. Was he a natural Ghost-type affinity saint?
It must be an illusion!
Amidst the busyness.
The pot was ready, and the bronze pot bubbled, emitting a "gurgling" sound and spreading a fragrant aroma.
Ice Kyuubi and Sharon helped with the final plating.
Preparations were complete.
Jinghe patted Bear Pupil's body, wiping his hands clean.
"Koo? (⊙＿⊙)"
"It's ready! Let's eat!"
"Unga!"
"Wooo!"
"Chomp!"
"Roar!"
"."
For a moment, ghostly howls and wolfish cries echoed from the garden, and the small creatures with green eyes immediately gathered around, drooling.
"Help yourselves to the condiments." Jinghe handed Sharon a dish of prepared condiments.
"Then..."
He deliberately prolonged his words, "Bon appetit!"
Boom!!
The scene almost got out of control for a moment.
"Don't be shy, eat quickly. Gramps and the others will show off later." Jinghe said to Sharon.
"Oh... oh."
Sharon nodded absentmindedly, then revealed a gentle smile.
This lively and bustling atmosphere was truly wonderful.
After the meal.
Jinghe and Sharon sat by the campfire, while Gramps and the others were still cleaning up.
"Are you participating in the Bellflower Tournament?" Sharon suddenly asked.
The Bellflower Tournament?
Jinghe turned to look at the cleared table, his mouth twitching.
With this setup, how could he not find a way to earn more?
There was still a Pokemon egg that hadn't hatched yet.
"Probably."
"Mm." Sharon nodded, "It'll be over just before you start school, so it's not long now."
Tournaments in various regions are usually held during school holidays to ensure they don't disrupt the regular studies of academy students.
However, the Bellflower Tournament in the Sinnoh region was scheduled to take place before the start of the school year.
The moonlight was hazy, and the snow suddenly intensified, but the garden remained warm and cozy.
Both of them couldn't help but immerse themselves once again in the cheerful and lively atmosphere.
This was probably the best life in the Pokemon world.
