Chapter 152 Midnight Diner (Day 3)



The moment the dining car's copper bell rang, Mingyue was adding ingredients into the oden pot.

The door made of fog had not yet fully formed when several brown shadows rushed in eagerly.

"Good evening!" The little squirrel brought three other little squirrels into the dining car, carrying a basket that was much bigger than them, and put the basket down breathlessly.

The other three little squirrels looked at the food cart and chirped.

"Wow! There's actually such a big space through that tree hole!"

“How amazing!”

"Kinli, you've been hiding this great place!"

It turned out that the little squirrel that commissioned him to make pine nut wine was called Jinli, and its appearance really lived up to the name, as it had the most golden fur among the little squirrels.

The other three new squirrels also looked different. One of them was grinning with its big teeth bared all the time, looking silly; one had pink fur and was probably an albino squirrel; and another had particularly long hair on its ears.

Jinli came running over, "Boss! We have a good chestnut harvest. My mom sent you a basket to thank you for helping me make pine wine."

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce them to you. These three are my brothers and sisters. They are Banya, Pinky, and Jianjian."

The names of the squirrels were all clear at a glance, and Mingyue immediately matched the names with the little squirrels.

The one with bared teeth and a silly smile is Banya, the one with pink fur is Pinkdudu, and the one with extra long fur on the ears is Jianjian.

The three little squirrels approached cautiously, seeming a little afraid of the two cats.

Jinli explained, "It's their first time going out, so they're a little shy."

"Is that so? Don't be afraid, I'll treat you to some quail eggs." Mingyue picked up the quail eggs with toothpicks and handed them to the little squirrels.

Ban Ya took the quail egg and took a bite.

Fendudu and Jianjian watched Jinli take it before they took the quail eggs.

"Thank you, sister." Fendudu thanked Mingyue in a crisp voice.

Mingyue couldn't suppress the aunt's smile on her face. The well-behaved little animals are the cutest.

While chewing on a fragrant quail egg, Jinli asked, "By the way, Boss, can we buy the sesame sauce separately? My whole family loves the spicy salad we brought back yesterday, so we'd like to buy some separately."

"Sure, if you like I can pack a box for you."

The sesame sauce in Mingyue’s store is her homemade Erba sauce made with peanut butter and sesame paste. Xiaoman and Mianbao also like to use it to dip meat.

After all, sesame sauce dipped in meat is yyds!

Jinli's eyes lit up, "Can you fill two bottles for me?"

Mingyue smiled and said, "It seems you really like it. Okay, I'll fill two bottles for you."

She pretended to open the cabinet, but actually took out two jam jars from the system warehouse and put the sesame paste in them.

"Anything else?"

"Thank you, boss. I won't eat in the store today. Mom is still waiting for us to go back."

"Okay, thank you for the chestnuts. Next time you come, I will use these to cook something delicious for you. By the way, pine cone wine is also being prepared." Mingyue has already thought of what to do with the chestnuts.

"Wow! That's great! Thank you, boss!" Jinli jumped on the spot excitedly before excitedly taking the jam bottle.

It lifted one by itself, and the remaining one was lifted by the three of them.

"Then let's go back! See you next time, boss!" After paying the bill, Jinli left holding the bottle full of sesame paste.

Bread carried the basket of chestnuts that Squirrel had brought to the counter. "Maomao, what are you going to do with these chestnuts?"

"Let's make candied chestnuts. They will definitely taste good."

While Mingyue was teaching Bread how to use a knife to cut open Li Zi, another customer came to the store. It was a hedgehog couple and they ordered oden.

Grandpa Hedgehog opened the box of fish and asked, "These are the fish I caught. Could you help me cook them?"

It was just something that happened easily, and Mingyue suddenly received a commission notification.

[You have a new client request, do you want to accept it? ]

【whether】

Of course the answer is yes.

【Commission accepted successfully.】

Hedgehog's Request - Fish Cooking

The hedgehog hopes you can help him cook the fish he caught.】

Mingyue looked up at the fish that the hedgehog brought. There was a bigger one and the rest were a dozen small fish.

"The big ones are quite big. I'll make you a grilled fish with the big ones, and deep-fry the small ones, okay?"

"Of course, it must be delicious. It took me a lot of effort to catch this fish." Grandpa Hedgehog immediately showed a proud smile on his face.

Grandma Hedgehog glanced at her husband next to her and said, "It's already a great honor for him to be willing to help with the cooking, and you're still asking for more."

It turned to Mingyue and smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, just watch and do what you want. It finally caught a big one and has no place to show off."

Bread asked curiously, "Did you catch it from the Green Water Pond, meow?"

"Yeah, how did you guess that?" Grandpa Hedgehog was a little surprised.

"The fish at the Green Water Pond have a hint of red at the tips of their tails."

"Hey, I see you fish too. Have you ever fished at Green Water Pond?"

The two fishing enthusiasts hit it off immediately.

While they chatted excitedly, Mingyue began to prepare the fish.

First, she scraped off the fish scales. As the scales fell off, the smooth fish meat was exposed. Then, she skillfully used a knife to cut an incision along the fish's belly and removed the internal organs one by one.

After processing the big fish, heat the pan with cold oil, put the fish into the pan, and do not turn it over first. Wait until the fish skin is fried for a while, then turn it over. This is to fix the shape and prevent the fish skin from breaking due to frequent turning.
