Yum!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Totom, Mr. Gallus, and Mr. Ebus smile happily when they see the food on the table.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Seeing that, a smile comes to my face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was happy to see them happy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This looks delicious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I saw Mr. Ars secretly move a certain dish in front of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Apparently, he is interested in a dish of leafy vegetables wrapped in thinly sliced meat and grilled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is he trying to move the dish of stewed meat and root vegetables, too?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Do you think it will be okay?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Won't they spill it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, Mr. Ebus got angry with me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well then, let's eat."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Everyone looked at Mr. Ur and nodded.

「「「「「Itadakimasu」」」」」

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We eat the rice that Mr. Totom cooked.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am so glad that Mr. Ebus stopped Mr. Totom from opening the lid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The rice is cooked well.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

By the way, Tottom-san is very interesting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I asked him about the rice he always eats, he told me that he has been seasoning his rice with the same sauce for about 10 years.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was quite surprised by that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I asked him if he doesn't use other sauces, he said that it is too much trouble to find the one he prefers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Indeed, there are quite a few, including sauces from other villages and towns.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I saw many sauces in Mr. Totom's store as well.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

However, he has been using the same flavor for 10 years.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I said, "I'm going to get bored," Mr. Tottom told me sincerely, "You'll get bored.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I couldn't help but laugh at Tottom-san, who was choosing boredom over the trouble of searching for it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I laughed at him and said, "This is delicious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm glad you like it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I showed Mr. Tottom how to change the flavor by adding a few other sauces to the one he usually uses.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Since the base of the sauce is his usual sauce, it should not be too far from his favorite flavor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Just be careful not to add too much of the additional sauces."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Tottom's reply made me wonder if he would be okay. I was a little worried, but I had no choice but to leave the rest to him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am sure he will be fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Als, you've eaten too much. I mean, there's nothing left.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at the vegetable rolls in front of Ars and saw that they had been completely devoured.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was so delicious, I ate too much.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm glad to hear that, but I wonder if the others couldn't eat it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Maybe I should have divided it between two plates.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Tottom, aren't you closing early today?　Huh?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I told you not to come here today because I have something to do."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

From the back door, one of the men came in and stopped moving when he saw us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He looked at us with a rather strange expression on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He looks at us with a rather curious expression on his face, "You're not a collaborator, are you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Collaborators?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that a church-related thing?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No," he said. They are family and friends of the man who taught us how to cook rice."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The man looks at us as Tottom explains.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Rice?　Just as well, I have a few questions about how to cook rice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We are a little surprised at the man's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am sorry to say, but he looked so strong that he didn't look like a cook at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The man is also surprised to see me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He's a child.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Yes, sir. It's me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. I'm trying to cook rice. Can I take the lid off after turning off the heat?　The guy from Totom wet the paper, so I couldn't read the end. And there were parts in the middle I couldn't read."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Don't take the lid off. Let me explain from the beginning. Are you ready for the rice?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, I could read that part, so it's no problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then, set the pot with the lid closed on the stove over medium heat and bring it to a boil. Then reduce the heat a little and cook for 3 minutes, and finally reduce the heat as low as possible and cook for about 6 minutes. When the rice is finished cooking, remove the lid slightly and check to see if there is any water left in the pot. If there is no more water, close the lid and let the rice cook for 10 seconds. After turning off the heat, leave the pot steaming with the lid closed. The time is about 10 minutes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. I wonder if it's a problem with the pot I'm using, or if it spills over at medium heat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know if it's a problem with the pot, but it keeps spilling over when it's on medium heat. Then lower the heat to low and cook until the water has evaporated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So, you don't want it to spill over, huh? I see. Thank you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He seems to understand more than Tottom.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It must have been hard to teach Tottom. He seems to be very careful, but he's a rough learner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ha-ha. Well, a little bit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, it was tough.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Finished?　What are you doing here?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The man glared at Mr. Totom when he said that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "You, it's a document. I told you to check the contents, sign it, and deliver it to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?　I delivered it to you last night?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The man looks surprised at Mr. Totom's words, "What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Tottomu also looks at the man with a curious expression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't get it," he said. Did you put it somewhere?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I met Nou, so I asked him for it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The man tilted his head at Mr. Totom's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The man nods his head, "I didn't see the gnu yesterday. Maybe again?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Something seems to have gone wrong, but for some reason they both look dumbfounded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's going on?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm going over to Noo's house. Sorry to interrupt."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As the man walks out the back door, Mr. Totom apologizes to all of us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'That's all right, but are you all right?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Totom laughs at Mr. Ur's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Some people take their papers home, you know. They're probably at home, so it's okay."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah, so that's why the man went to Mr. Noh's house.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He ate up all of the food. Well, it's time to clean up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I checked my plate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I thought it was a little too much. I thought it was a bit much, but all the plates were empty.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I had finished off those three pieces of meat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Let's have something light for dinner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I stack up the plates and take them to the kitchen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Gallus and Mr. Ur had already washed them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy said, "All you have to do is bring the dishes. I'll take care of the rest."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I thanked Mr. Ur for his words and went back to get the other plates.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll leave Ars with these."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can take some more, can't I?　I can take some more, okay?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In Ars-san's hand, there are chopsticks for the number of people who used them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Surely, I can take some more with me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, Ars, this is fine. Please, don't poke yourself with the chopsticks."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That is indeed ...... Mr. Ars might have some.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She might bump into a large flowerpot on the main street, or hit her head on a signboard hanging from above.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's not as if there is no chance of a chopstick getting stuck in her when she stumbles.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Holding a platter stacked five high, I walk behind Ms. Ars.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She's walking normally.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You are not limping.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So why do I trip over so many times?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, no!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Rumble, rattle, rattle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Are you okay?　Thank God, I only used chopsticks. Are you hurt?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Ebus immediately went to Mr. Ars.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I got it. I hit my knee.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think I hit my knee on the floor because I was holding the chopsticks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is he going to be all right?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

For now, let's go put the platter down in the kitchen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then I'll come back to pick up the chopsticks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hurried to the kitchen and asked Mr. Gallus and the others for the platter, and then returned to Mr. Ars and the others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

On the way, I saw some chopsticks lying around, so I picked them up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is everything all right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm fine. I'm used to it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I laugh at Ars-san's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Even if you are used to it, something hurts.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at Ars-san's knee and saw that it had turned red.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She got a blue potion from Mr. Ebus and sprinkled a little bit on his knee.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The redness went away immediately, so it was probably just a bruise.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was glad. I'll take the chopsticks ...... with me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sure Ars-san is going to get hurt next time too.
