Yu Sheng Nan didn't explain to her what had just happened, and she sensibly chose not to ask, though she couldn't help feeling a little happy.
My daughter has excellent taste!
After a while, Mrs. Yoshida blushed and pondered for a moment, then gently brushed a few strands of her hair that had fallen across her chest behind her back.
"lady?"
Yuzuru glanced at him with a look of doubt in his eyes.
Mrs. Yoshida smiled sweetly, as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring. "Sir, thank you so much for teaching me how to cook..."
For a moment, only the sound of chopping vegetables filled the kitchen, the rhythmic "clack-clack" sound seeming to tell of the warmth of the moment.
Students pay tuition, so teachers should teach them well.
Yu Sheng Nan squinted, his expression focused, patiently explaining each step: "Madam, you see, when cutting vegetables, you have to pay attention to the angle and pressure of the knife. That way, the vegetables will look nice and taste better."
"Hmm..."
Mrs. Yoshida nodded gently, lost in thought, making sure to remember every detail.
"Hiss~"
Looking at the papaya that had been cut into a terrible state, Yu Sheng Nan frowned slightly, slowed down his movements, and asked softly, "Madam, is this your first time making this kind of dish?"
"Hmm~" Mrs. Yoshida pouted, a hint of embarrassment on her face.
“No wonder…” Yu Shengnan smiled, his eyes full of encouragement. “It’s alright, just practice more. Madam is so smart and skillful, she will definitely learn it soon.”
Teaching beginners is always a troublesome task, but under Yuzuru Nanami's guidance, the making of papaya soup gradually got on track.
The kitchen was filled with the fresh aroma of papaya, its subtle sweetness creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that seemed to permeate the entire space.
"It's almost time to move it forward a little and put it in the pot to cook, Madam," Yu Shengnan said gently.
Mrs. Yoshida nodded obediently and, following Hanyu Nan's instructions, carefully held the ingredients, her expression focused and serious as she carried out the next step, just like a student diligently completing her homework.
While the soup was cooking, the atmosphere between the two became even more harmonious.
Mrs. Yoshida would occasionally look up and steal a glance at Yuzuru, and her heart would be filled with ripples of shyness and admiration, as if she had a thousand words to say.
As time passed, the soup in the pot began to bubble and simmer, and the aroma grew stronger, enveloping the entire kitchen in its enticing fragrance.
"It should be about ready." Yu Shengnan squinted and turned off the stove.
"Madam, come and taste our creations."
With a smile, Yuzuru ladled out a bowl of soup and gently handed it to Mrs. Yoshida.
Mrs. Yoshida took the soup, blew on it gently, took a small sip, and her eyes immediately lit up: "It's delicious!"
Seeing her satisfied expression, Yu Sheng Nan felt a sense of accomplishment fill his heart as well.
A good teacher produces outstanding students; I hope to cultivate the next Xiaomingmei.
He couldn't help but sigh, "From now on, Madam can make this soup for herself and Ayumi more often, so that you can both enjoy this delicious and nutritious soup."
"good."
Mrs. Yoshida nodded, her gaze tender as she looked at the milky white papaya soup in the bowl, as if she could see a happy future ahead.
...
In the bedroom, Ayumi, who was lying on her small desk, finally finished writing the small test assigned by Yuzuru Nanami, her face full of joy.
When she turned around and found that her brother Yuzuru was no longer in the room, she quickly grabbed her homework and ran out.
"Brother Yuzuru, Brother Yuzuru, I've finished writing!"
Ayumi's clear, childlike voice called out loudly in the living room. After not finding anyone in the living room, her small figure skipped and hopped towards the kitchen.
Upon hearing the cheerful sounds outside, a flurry of activity erupted in the kitchen. Through the frosted glass door, two figures could be seen touching and then separating.
"Brother Yuzuru, are you here?"
Ayumi ran to the kitchen door, eagerly pushed it open, and poked her little head inside. Her bright eyes darted around, searching for the figure she wanted to see.
Then, she received a gentle head pat.
Yu Sheng Nan squatted down and affectionately patted Ayumi's head, "Ayumi, you finished writing so quickly."
"Yes, Yuzuru-nii, I've finished writing it all."
Ayumi obediently allowed Yuzuru to caress her, her eyes curving into a cute arc, like a gentle and obedient kitten, extremely well-behaved.
As she spoke, she held up her notebook high, anticipating praise from Yuzuru Hanyu.
"Ayumi is great."
Yuzuru took it and looked at it.
Well, although there are still quite a few mistakes, considering that he set the questions based on Ai Haibara, it is still worth encouraging.
At this moment, Ayumi noticed her mother tidying clothes in the kitchen. Tilting her head, she asked in confusion, "Mom, what are you doing?"
"Brother is helping Mom cook. Ayumi, are you hungry?" Yuzuru smiled and helped Mrs. Yoshida out of her somewhat awkward situation.
"I'm hungry..." Ayumi rubbed her tummy, about to say something, when suddenly her eyes lit up, "Wow, Mom, you actually ate something delicious behind Ayumi's back!"
She stared at the glistening drop of soup on the edge of Mrs. Yoshida's lips, puffed out her cheeks, and deliberately pretended to be angry.
"I want some too!"
As her daughter ran over, Mrs. Yoshida, having regained her composure, quickly picked up a soup bowl from the side, ladled a bowl of soup from the pot, and said, "Alright, alright, our little Ayumi will eat too. Come and try the papaya soup that Mom and her brother made together."
Ayumi stepped forward, took a sniff, and exclaimed, "Wow, it smells so good!"
"Then try it quickly."
Mrs. Yoshida looked at her daughter with anticipation.
"It's so delicious! Thank you, Yuzuru-nii and Mom." Ayumi took a sip, her eyes curving like two adorable crescent moons.
Yu Sheng Nan patted Ayumi's head and said softly, "I'm glad you like it. As long as Ayumi likes it, your brother and mother will make it for you often in the future."
Mrs. Yoshida looked at her daughter's adorable appearance and a gentle smile appeared on her face.
She silently apologized in her heart:
"I'm sorry, my dear daughter..."
