Chapter 10 The Tenth Word "Mom"

Chapter 10 The Tenth Word "Mom"

Baichuanmu opened the Poké Ball, and there was nothing inside. She glanced at Xiaoxia Youjie and guessed, "Xiaojie, do you want to put Charmander and Pikachu into the Poké Ball?"

"Hmm... um," Xiao Xia Youjie hummed, then nodded, and reached out to take the "empty" Poké Ball from Baichuanmu, "I want to put Charmander away, and Pikachu will stay outside for now, because it's the most special one."

"Haha, although Pikachu is a hidden blind box, I think Charmander is also very special. They are both unique," Baichuanmu chuckled and placed a children's meal in front of Xiaoxia Youjie. "Then put it away first. Put it in your schoolbag or in your mother's shoulder bag?"

"Then... one for each of us." Xiao Xia Youjie thought for a moment and said.

Xiao Xia Youjie put the "empty" Poké Ball into his pocket first, then grabbed the other Poké Balls, opened them, put the Charmander in them, and then put it in Baichuanmu's small shoulder bag. He also put the other Charmander into the Poké Ball and put it in his own bag.

But in this way, the Pikachu on the table seemed a little lonely... or maybe not so lonely, because it was placed between two children's meals, tilting its head and looking at Baichuan Mu and Xiaoxia Youjie, looking particularly cute.

The tableware of the children’s meal also provides wet wipes. Bai Chuanmu first wiped Xiao Xia Youjie’s hands with the wet wipes, and then wiped his own hands briefly.

"Then let's get started~"

"Yeah! I'm starting!"

The portion of the children's meal is indeed not very large, and the burger seems to be a little smaller?

This collaboration is a children's set meal, which includes a fried chicken burger, an egg tart, a milk pudding, and a drink. Xiao Xia Youjie's is hot oatmeal milk, while hers is a glass of iced cola with almost half a cup of ice cubes.

Bai Chuanmu took out a burger from the box. There was a special pattern printed on the bread. It looked like... a Squirtle? Not really. It was ugly and cute.

She glanced at the hamburger in Geto's hand. There was a Bulbasaur printed on the bun.

Charmander, Pikachu, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur, hahaha, it seems that the four Pokémon of this collaboration have been collected in disguise.

Xiao Xia Youjie couldn't wait to take a bite of the burger. He could hear the crispy sound of the fried chicken inside the burger. Just by listening to the sound, he could imagine how delicious it was. Then, seeing the happy smile on Xiao Xia Youjie's face, the deliciousness seemed even more tangible.

Bai Chuanmu's lips curled up slightly, and after a chuckle, she couldn't wait to take a big bite of the burger. She was very hungry and almost ate half of the burger in one bite.

The bread was soft and the fried chicken inside was crispy and delicious. She could hear the crisp sound more clearly. The burger was not very hot, the temperature was just right when she put it in her mouth. The fried chicken had a crispy coating, but the chicken was very tender, not dry or woody at all. It was a pity that it was not spicy. Bai Chuanmu's taste was heavier, so she liked the simple salty and fragrant taste, paired with sweet and sour salad dressing, and a piece of fresh lettuce. The taste was rich, which made Bai Chuanmu, who liked spicy food, couldn't help but smile. It was the most sincere and silent praise for the delicious food.

She ate the remaining half of the burger a little slower, dividing it into three bites.

After finishing the meal, Bai Chuanmu still felt a little unsatisfied and had the urge to buy another children's meal for two, but it was just a thought because the egg tarts and milk pudding had not been eaten yet.

Baichuan Mu first took a sip of ice cola. The cool cola bubbles jumped in her mouth, and her mood couldn't help but become joyful. No wonder people say that cola is the happy water of fat people. It is really the source of happiness.

Unfortunately, happiness was short-lived. She drank most of the cup in one breath, and the rest was basically ice cubes. Bai Chuanmu felt a little regretful. He wanted to wait and buy a big bottle from the supermarket to drink slowly at home. However, he had to set a good example for Xiao Xia Youjie. It was not good to drink beverages all the time. So he just bought a small bottle and drank it secretly.

The egg tart was still warm and a little hot, but Bai Chuanmu felt that the egg tarts that had just come out of the oven were the most delicious.

Bai Chuanmu likes to eat the smooth part in the middle first. That part is delicate and soft, and filled with the aroma of eggs and milk. Unfortunately, there is too little of it, and he finishes it in a moment. Although the crust is also very crispy, Bai Chuanmu still feels that it is a little lacking. Perhaps it would be better to eat the egg tart crust first and then the filling?

The amount of milk pudding was not large, and it was all scooped out in three spoons. The milk taste was less, and the texture was more like jelly than pudding, and was quite chewy.

I feel like I'm only about 60% full, right?

Bai Chuanmu rubbed his stomach and it was almost time.

Bai Chuanmu had finished his "battle" here, and Xiao Xia Youjie next to him had only eaten half of his burger. He was eating very seriously, and there was a little salad dressing and fried chicken crumbs on his cheeks.

Baichuanmu chuckled, met Xiaoxia Youjie's gaze, and said, "Are you happy?"

"Happy~" Xiao Xia Youjie nodded, "I hope I can eat such delicious food every day...ah, I'm just talking, mom, don't worry about it."

Bai Chuanmu thought of the description of the taste of the Curse Spirit Ball, and her expression became a little more serious. She said, "Although I can't eat McDonald's every day, Mom will try her best to make delicious food for you every day."

"Yeah! Actually, I love all the food my mom cooks!"

"Hmm..." Bai Chuanmu pursed his lips and showed a gentle smile.

In fact, she didn’t really cook very often in the past. Most of the dishes she cooked were pre-prepared and she just heated them up.

It is convenient, but the taste and nutrition are worse.

This is also a helpless move due to busy work, but it won’t be like this anymore in the future.

Bai Chuanmu is still very confident. She used to help out in the kitchen at the orphanage and also worked odd jobs in restaurants in Chinatown, where she learned some skills. Although her cooking skills are not very good, she thinks they are not bad. Moreover, she now has the time and opportunity to slowly learn and improve her cooking skills.

What delicious food should I make for Xiao Xia Youjie tomorrow morning...

Before Xiao Xia Youjie finished his meal, Bai Chuanmu started planning his next meal.

But there didn't seem to be much food in the refrigerator? Even the pre-prepared dishes were gone. "She" had planned to go to the supermarket to buy some food after picking up Xiao Xia Youjie from school today.

After Xiao Xia Youjie finishes eating, she will go shopping in the supermarket to help digest the food. At this time, there will be a lot of discount labels on supermarket items! I hope she can grab some good and cheap ingredients.

Xiao Xia Youjie was eating attentively. He finished the hamburger and the egg tart, but he couldn't eat the milk pudding anymore. After drinking the oatmeal milk, he burped, and the milk pudding naturally belonged to Baichuanmu.

Bai Chuanmu used wet wipes to carefully wipe Xiao Xia Youjie's face and hands.

Xiao Xia Youjie stuffed Pikachu into Baichuanmu's hands: "Mom, your favorite Pikachu."

"Thank you, Xiaojie~ But mom likes Xiaojie the most!"

“Hehe~”

Then Bai Chuanmu took him away from McDonald's, and said goodbye to the store clerk when leaving.

While waiting for the bus at the bus stop, Baichuan Muyou noticed that Xiao Xia Youjie touched his pocket from time to time. His pocket was bulging, as if the Poké Ball was in it.

"Jon, you seem to like that Poké Ball very much."

"Um……"

Xiao Xia Youjie nodded silently. He looked like he was worried. But maybe he was tired? Children usually go to bed early.

Bai Chuanmu looked up at the street light in a daze, watching the little bugs circling around the glowing light bulb. The light bulb... a round light bulb.

I always feel like I have forgotten something... Is the light at home broken and do I need to buy a new bulb?

etc……

The two Charmanders were placed in two Poké Balls, one in each of her and Xiao Xia Youjie's bags, and Pikachu was held in her hand. Then...then the remaining Poké Ball should be empty, right?

Xiaojie had shown it to her before, and it was indeed empty... empty... Then... is it possible that she couldn't see it!

Bai Chuanmu finally reacted!

"Xiao Jie!" Bai Chuanmu suddenly turned sideways and pressed Xiao Xia You Jie's shoulder. Her voice trembled with excitement. "You... the Poké Ball in your pocket... doesn't contain a Curse Ball... right? That... little black ball?"
