Chapter 153.1. Present From Grandpa
After the incident with the Washizu family, they didn’t show up again. So, Mii-chan enjoyed a heartwarming party. The roasted beef from Hornbear Cow was amazing. Hand in hand with Tamamo, she ran around the party venue.
Well, I thought it’d be better to have only the children at the party. The adults’ gift onslaught is such a hassle, such a hassle.
Do they think a 10 years old girl would be delighted to receive jewelry as a present? At least Mii-chan was happier with the stuffed toy, so I asked an unfamiliar maid nearby to put it away.
As for carrying the burden of the future of Takano County, that is up to Papa. Mii-chan believes in papa. The current family is the best, and papa is cool. She believes he will become a kind and cool noble who won’t succumb to the pressure of corrupt aristocrats.
It wouldn’t hurt to lend a hand a little, right?
The next day was a family-only party. I thought it would be good to use the leftovers from the previous party, but it seems the servants either ate them or took them home. What a shame.
That’s why Mii-chan decided to help out early.
“I made pizza, sandwiches, and fried chicken!”
In the living room, Mii-chan proudly spread her hands and presented the dishes lined up on the table.
I made the pizza by putting salami, tomatoes, corn, and wieners on a plain frozen sheet and baking it in the oven.
I stuffed the sandwiches with thin slices of various fillings and filled the egg sandwich generously with scrambled eggs. I properly buttered the bread.
I made the fried chicken with soy sauce-based marinade and fried it to perfect crispiness. I made it together with Ranko-san, and it turned out just right.
“Wow, did Mii-chan make everything?”
“Yes, your daughter was an excellent cook.”
“Mii-chan, you did a great job with the cooking. It looks delicious.”
There were also salad, cheese, and other things. As papa and the others looked at the displayed dishes and praised her with smiles, Mii-chan proudly blushed, breathing heavily with excitement.
That’s right. Mii-chan’s cooking skills are top-notch.
Specifically, it’s Cook III Proficiency 6. I worked hard to make the Divine Flower Cookies. I raised it on the side when I went to Gerer’s botanical garden to look for a treasure chest. I also became a master Appraiser IV.
Every night, I teleported to search for treasure chests, but I didn’t find a single one. It was there in the game. Feeling dejected, I exterminated monsters and gathered a large number of materials. I also became a Master in Ninja, so it wasn’t a waste. But the next day, going to school was incredibly tough.
Anyway, Mii-chan’s skill is on par with a professional. This time, I didn’t select the [Cook] command to avoid suspicion, so it’s simply my skills from my previous life’s reflection.
She has had such great skills for 10 years old that even our head chef praises her.
“It’s fine today because I didn’t use any ingredients with magical effects!”
“Let’s have Aburage-san look at Mi-chan’s cooking method next time.”
It’s okay. This time, I just made the food like ordinary chefs.
“I even taste-tested them, so it’s fine!”
“Yeah, I wanted you to taste yesterday’s cookies too.”
I nodded, avoiding papa’s gaze with a sullen expression.
All my friends who ate the cookies as a present became completely engrossed and devoured them.
“Well, well, dear. Instead of that, let’s eat the cookies that Mii-chan made for us.”
“Yeah, that’s right. It’s a day late. Merry Christmas! Cheers!”
“Cheers!”
Mama poured the juice into the glasses with a wry smile, and we all raised our glasses for a toast. Cheers!
Having a Christmas party with my family is the best. I look forward to it every year.
Stretching my small body as much as possible, sparkling my ice-blue eyes, I raised my glass with a beaming smile, brimming with happiness.
“The chicken karaage is delicious, Mii-chan.”
“Hehe, I did my best.”
“Today’s frozen foods are delicious, aren’t they?”
It’s delicious, you know. Frozen foods in my previous life were delicious too, but they’re delicious in this world too. The packages with labels like “Magic Vegetables” make it feel like a magical world.
We watched TV and talked about school events, and I carefully picked up the food with my small mouth, eating little by little.
Mii-chan happily enjoyed the family party, watching Papa and Mama smiling with warm expressions.
“It’s the best, right?” I sipped my juice and said, “It’s time for the main event,” and stood up straight.
Because it’s Christmas. It’s time for gift exchange. I know there’s no Santa Claus, as I learned in kindergarten, so it’s not that fancy, but still.
“Papa, mama, thank you always! Papa, this is for you. Mama, this is your gift!”
I brought the gift boxes that I had placed in the corner of the room and handed them to Papa and Mama with a Mii-chan smile.
“Thank you, Mii-chan. I wonder what it is? A tie, maybe?”
“I’m so happy, Mii-chan. Can I open it?”
“Yeah, go ahead and open it!”
It’s a nice gift. I want you to see it.
