The pet I raised comes from the second dimension.

Chapter 41 Zongzi! [This chapter includes illustrations~]

"Hakimi Nanbei Luduo, Ashiga Ashi."

"Asihaya cool dairy farmer, Hakimi Haji."

"..."

On the way back to the basement alone, Duoluo was in a very good mood. Humming a tune, his two short legs moved back and forth, shaking like a bell.

Although I didn’t manage to leave all the Oh Runji that I planted myself for others (Huang Musong),
It didn't even make a dime...

But Duoluo still feels very happy today.

I grew the Oh Runji myself and sold it for a lot of money, which I gave to Miss Freckles.

The full sense of accomplishment made it extremely happy!
To the point that I temporarily forgot about being hungry and my stomach stopped growling.

until
Near the basement,

The sudden fragrance that came towards him reawakened the gluttony in Duo Luo's stomach.

The fragrance is not strong, but very pure, and there is a faint feeling that it penetrates deep into the lungs.

The breath cannot be seen or touched,
It smells like a young girl's hair brushing against your face!
"Wow?"

"What is that? It smells so good."

He quickly stopped at the entrance of the basement, raised his head, and sniffed around with his nose.

Soon it located the source of the scent.
Unexpectedly, the fragrance came from the basement!
The basement is dark and has poor ventilation.

If there is no bad smell, the hygiene situation is excellent.

How could there be such a sweet smell?
A curiosity stronger than the fragrance was born in Doro's little head.

It quickened its pace and went into the basement
Guided by the fragrance, Duo Luo came to the private room of sanitation worker Aunt Liu. From the sound, he could guess that some kind of food was being stewed inside.

Because I had stolen Aunt Liu's eggs several days ago,

Although I paid it back later,

Huang Musong also exchanged gifts of more expensive fruits.

but……

Duo Luo remembered that he had never apologized to Aunt Liu in person.

So, when it smelled the fragrance, it felt embarrassed to knock on the door and disturb everyone.

Just beside the crack of the door,

Duoluo leaned over and imitated the dogs' smelling movements.

No matter how much you smell something unknown, you can never imagine it just by smelling it.

It has no idea what smells so good!

A few seconds later.
Huang Musong's voice actually came from Aunt Liu's single room.

Doro then realized that someone was also in the house.

If people are around,

Then I have nothing to be embarrassed about~
It pushed the door open without hesitation and walked into the room obediently. The first thing it did was to nod and bow to Aunt Liu.

The overly polite behavior expressed apology for stealing the eggs.
Duo Luo's understanding made Aunt Liu feel embarrassed.

"Ouch!"

"What are you doing, little guy..."

Aunt Liu wanted to help Dora stand up, but she was afraid that her hands covered with glutinous rice would dirty its fur, so she could only say polite words in a cheerful manner.

She was really embarrassed.
It was clearly me who was asking Huang Musong for help just now,

How could I tolerate the courtesy of the other person's pet now?

Aunt Liu hurriedly entertained them with a chattering voice.
She told Duoluo to feel free to sit on the bed and not to worry about dirtying the mat.

Duo Luo still has zero foundation and no knowledge of deep-level human relationships.

Facing warm hospitality
It laughs foolishly,
He bent over, stuck out his butt, and jumped onto the bed, then lay down and crawled over it.

So cool~!

The comfort of the cool mat caused a humming sound similar to snoring.

Huang Musong felt helpless when he saw this...

Ugh!
If I had known Duoluo was coming back now, I would have said no to visiting Aunt Liu's room. But now, Aunt Liu is bothering me, and I really can't refuse.

I sighed secretly,

Huang Musong had no intention of blaming Duo Luo.

He felt that it would be better to lie down and play games after waking up!

……

Half a quarter of an hour ago
It was almost time for Dora and Freckles to sell out their green tangerines.
Huang Musong, who had been sleeping in, woke up.

He opened his eyes, but didn't see Duoluo. He knew that the little guy must have gone out for a walk.

I am basically assured of Duoluo's safety.

Huang Musong planned to play games for a while and wait for it to come back.

It was more than an hour before noon and I hadn't had breakfast. Duoluo definitely couldn't withstand the hunger at noon.

So I ordered takeout in advance.
When he was picking up takeout, he happened to pass by Aunt Liu's room.

When he came out of the basement, Huang Musong smelled a fragrance and knew it was the smell of zongzi.

The weekend is Dragon Boat Festival.

It's normal to wrap zongzi in advance. He didn't think much of it and didn't plan to say hello to Aunt Liu.

however!
When he came back with the takeaway, Aunt Liu took the initiative to call him over and enthusiastically invited him into the house to sit down and chat.

Communication across generations must be based on the principle of "no visit without a request".

As expected, after some polite words, Aunt Liu hinted that she wanted to cause trouble.

"Xiao Huang..."

"Are you still single?"

"It just so happens that my nephew is studying at the Central Conservatory of Music. I heard there are a lot of beautiful young girls there. I'll ask her to introduce one to you!"

It is polite to introduce someone to you.

What Aunt Liu actually wanted to express was to help deliver some rice dumplings to her nephew.

The Central Conservatory of Music is located in the center of the capital. It is too far to get there by bus and too expensive to take a taxi.

Considering that Huang Musong's workplace is also in the city,
It shouldn't be too much trouble to help deliver some things.

And it’s not for free,
The extra dozen or so dumplings I made were to reward him.

Huang Musong knew what Aunt Liu was up to, and he couldn't refuse or agree. He had quit his last job and didn't need to commute downtown every day, so how could he help deliver the dumplings?
Furthermore,

The university cafeteria sells rice dumplings near the Dragon Boat Festival...

Young people may not really care about the rice dumplings made by their relatives.

So I vaguely replied and didn't refuse,

Huang Musong planned to take Duo Luo back to the south of the city after noon to avoid trouble.

As a result, I met Duo Luo who happened to be back.
Its intervention changed the situation and made it impossible for Huang Musong to hide from the matter.

Lying on the mat and catching my breath.
After Duoluo recovered some strength,

I saw it curiously approaching the dining table beside the bed.

The rice cooker is divided into two layers, the upper part is for steaming rice dumplings, and the lower part is for boiling rice dumplings.

The mixed aromas emitted by different cooking methods will whet your taste buds!

Duo Luo was so hungry that he almost drooled.

After leaning towards Aunt Liu, it moved closer to the glutinous rice bowl and asked like a curious baby, "What's in there? It smells so good! Can I have one, just one? Thank you, Auntie~"

Blinking her big, sparkling eyes,
Dora looked like someone you couldn't refuse.

Aunt Liu was also worried that Huang Musong would be too lazy to help run errands to deliver the rice dumplings, so in order not to be rejected, she quickly picked out a freshly cooked one and put it into the bowl.

"This is called Zongzi, come and eat it."

“It’s best eaten while it’s hot!”

Sweet rice dumplings are easy to cook, but the taste will become lighter.

Aunt Liu enthusiastically poured a large layer of white sugar to enhance the flavor!
Then insert the chopsticks into the rice dumpling.
She took care of Duoluo as if he were her own child.

Duoluo has never eaten Zongzi.

At first, it thought even the lotus leaves were edible...

I found out that lotus leaves are not edible.
In line with the principle of not wasting anything, Duo Luo picked up the lotus leaf again and licked the glutinous rice grains stuck on it with his tongue.

Each grain of rice spreads its fragrance in your mouth.

The glue is sticky yet strong.

Sweet and suitable
The fragrance of lotus leaves can relieve greasiness!
Duo Luoxiang was amazed and felt like he had discovered a new world. He ate the rice dumplings with relish.

His mouth kept smacking, but the sound was not unpleasant.

Because it's too sticky,
It is difficult for it to chew the glutinous rice if it eats with its mouth closed.

Another big bite of rice dumpling, this time I ate it dry without dipping it in sugar, and it tasted just as great!
Duo Luo couldn't help but be conquered by the rice dumplings.

Oh……

yes~
I forgot to let the person (Huang Musong) take a bite first.

After swallowing the glutinous rice in his mouth as quickly as possible, Duoluo picked up the second rice dumpling and carefully peeled off the skin for Huang Musong.

This rice dumpling is wrapped in reed leaves.

The fragrance of reeds,
Very different from lotus leaves!
Stronger fragrance can easily cover up the original rice flavor of the rice dumpling.

After thinking about it, Duoluo's brain slowly started working, and the cooking skills of "I'm Thinking" were online again...

It ran out the door happily.

Take out the only green one from the sack, Runji.

I didn’t sell all the green tangerines and left one for someone.

Now is the perfect time to use it to flavor the rice dumplings!
After washing his little paws in the basin, Duoluo used chopsticks to cut the rice dumpling open and stuffed a small piece of Oh Runji in it.

"Ok?"

Huang Musong couldn't help but feel curious.

Why are there green tangerines for sale in this season?

He was confused for a moment, then realized that Duoluo was going to pick the orange tree that had been used to test the Bellowing Whale watering can.

While people are in a daze,
Duo Luo fed the rice dumplings with sour orange filling to Huang Musong.

The unique flavor of Ohrun Zongzi is better than regular Zongzi!
but
No need to praise the deliciousness,
Huang Musong's mind has completely shifted to new business ideas.

"If I can use my identity as Aunt Liu's nephew to get through to the orange market of Central University of Music and sell a batch of green oranges to go with rice dumplings... I will definitely make a lot of money, right? At the same time, let Duolu participate in the production of rice dumplings. With his cooking skills, I can assist... and even save the money of hiring people to make rice dumplings!" He secretly calculated in his heart and pondered the feasibility. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the new idea was a good one.
