The Fujiwara Family's villa was a large one, so naturally, the kitchen on the first floor was also oversized.
Opening the refrigerator, Fujiwara Chika showed everyone the ingredients inside.
"How about it? We have everything you could want!"
In addition to various vegetables, the freezer also had all kinds of different ats.
After looking at the ingredients and considering their number—eight people—the ingredients in this refrigerator would definitely not be used up.
Shirogane Miyuki, anwhile, began to think about what dishes to make.
"Hmm... how about each of us who can cook makes two dishes?" Shirogane Miyuki said with a smile, ", Kei, Asakura, and Sawamura—four people. Would eight dishes be enough? Or should I add one more dish and then a soup? For soup, those of you who can't cook could try it. We'll supervise, so there shouldn't be any problems."
"Yes, yes!"
Fujiwara Chika had wanted to get hands-on from the start, and she was the first to raise her hand in agreent.
And to supervise her older sister, Fujiwara Moeha also beca uncharacteristically serious: "Hmm, I'll help too."
Although Shinomiya Kaguya hadn't learned much about cooking, she showed no hesitation at this mont. The main reason was that, in addition to being able to eat dishes made by Shirogane Miyuki himself, she would also get to see him cook for the first ti.
As for Ishigami Yuu, after washing his hands and coming over, he chose to go to Kaede's side to help. There was no telling what kind of mischief Fujiwara Chika might get up to. Going to the Shirogane siblings' side, Shinomiya Kaguya's gaze towards him was also a bit terrifying, so he could only take refuge with Kaede, whom he wasn't particularly familiar with.
However, it just so happened that Kaede and Eriri's side also needed an extra helper. Eriri's chopping speed wasn't fast, so Ishigami Yuu could assist with that.
"Eriri, have you decided what to make?"
"Hmm~~~"
Eriri looked at the ingredients in front of her and said, "I don't know many dishes. I'll make the main course, how about seafood fried rice, and then Kung Pao chicken?"
"Kung Pao chicken? When did you learn that?"
Seeing Kaede's puzzled expression, Eriri showed a triumphant look and said, "Auntie Reiko taught last ti when we moved. She even sent her compiled recipes later. I'm her true disciple!"
This was sothing Kaede hadn't expected. His mother had actually given Eriri the recipes she had been recording for over a decade. He knew that many of the dishes his mother knew were ones she had learned from chefs outside, not just ordinary ho cooking.
Thinking about it... would he be in for a treat from now on?
After a mont of thought, Kaede's gaze swept over the ingredients on the table. He picked up an uncut piece of pork belly: "Although you're quite proud, Eriri, don't forget that I've been learning to cook with Mom for a long ti. While I only mastered the basics of most dishes, there are so I learned quite well. So, I'll make braised pork, plus a stir-fry."
In Fujiwara Chika's kitchen, in addition to common ingredients, various seasonings were also complete, allowing for the preparation of almost any cuisine.
"Ishigami-kun, please take these vegetables to wash first."
After handing the chosen vegetables to Ishigami Yuu, Kaede began to prepare the pork in front of him. When it ca to pork dishes, besides sweet and sour ribs, his favorites were braised pork and braised pork trotters.
Of course, I also like pork chops; I'm quite fond of both scallion-braised pork chops and fried pork cutlets.
Compared to Kaede and Eriri's side, whose nus leaned towards Western and Chinese dishes after being taught by Sawamura Sayuri and Asakura Reiko, Shirogane Miyuki and Shirogane Kei's cooking was more focused on everyday Japanese ho-style dishes. But both of them were very skilled, and the taste of their food would definitely not be bad.
The others who couldn't cook, naturally, were like Ishigami Yuu, either washing vegetables or helping with simple tasks.
During the lunch preparation, although Fujiwara Chika tried to add so seasonings she believed would enhance the flavor to the soup, she was imdiately stopped by Shirogane Miyuki and Kaede.
Finally, after bustling around until almost 12 o'clock, everyone had finished making lunch.
Seeing all sorts of dishes laid out on the dining table, Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't help but swallow. Although she was used to eating all kinds of delicacies, this was her first ti trying a grand al made by everyone together, just like the octopus sausages in Shirogane Miyuki's bento before.
After sitting down, Shirogane Miyuki couldn't help but exclaim, "I really didn't expect us to make so much at once, even though it was a bit chaotic during the process."
As the proposer of the idea, Fujiwara Chika was naturally the happiest at this mont, holding her chopsticks and saying, "Don't say anymore, President! Everyone, let's eat quickly, I can't wait!"
"I'm going to eat!"
Both Shirogane Miyuki and Shirogane Kei were excellent cooks, and the dishes they made were delicious. Kaede and Eriri, although they didn't know many dishes, made their most Skilled ones, so the taste was also good. Coupled with a soup that had no mishaps, everyone naturally ate very satisfyingly.
After the al, Shinomiya Kaguya, who was skilled in tea ceremony, personally brewed tea for everyone, chuckling as she said, "I couldn't help much with cooking, so leave the after-al tea to ."
Holding the teacup and taking a sip of the tea Shinomiya Kaguya had personally brewed, Shirogane Miyuki showed a satisfied smile: "As expected of Shinomiya, her skill is truly excellent."
Shinomiya Kaguya heard this and happily narrowed her eyes: "It's good as long as President likes to drink it."
On the other side, Kaede and Eriri quietly drank their tea, watching the show, and at the sa ti, their private chat was activated again.
'Eriri, when do you think these two will confess?'
'Hard to say. Also, Kaede-kun, who do you think will confess first?'
'Can't guess. From what I've observed, both of them are the type who won't show their true feelings about emotions. Unless a special situation arises, we'll have to wait a while.'
Eriri thought about it and couldn't help but nod. In fact, if Kaede hadn't been unable to resist and just went for it directly back then, they probably would have had to wait a while longer too.
Asking Eriri to confess actively at that ti would indeed have been a bit difficult for her.
Looking at Shinomiya Kaguya, Eriri felt as if she was seeing her past self, though she was still a bit weaker, as she wouldn't engage in various ways to chat with Shirogane Miyuki like Shinomiya Kaguya did.
Just then, Fujiwara Chika, after finishing a cup of tea, revealed a chillingly brilliant smile, stood up and said, "Everyone, we just finished eating and there's nothing to do. I have a ga here, let's play it together!"
Then, without waiting for anyone's opinion, she quickly went upstairs and brought down a small box, which clearly wasn't sothing bought from outside.
"Ta-da! This is a ga I worked overti on yesterday with so friends from the board ga club, HAPPY LIFE GA! Let's all play it together!"
Looking at the small box, everyone showed expressions of deep thought and unease.
