Two Kinds of Miso Soup Are Ready! The Family Tries Miso Soup for the First Time!
“Thanks, Marle. I’m alright now.”
“This Marle will always be by Young Master’s side.”
Huh? Sniffling? What’s wrong, Sebas?
“Young Master… the miso soup I drank. To think it made Young Master cry so much. What a sinner I am. Sebas has been in your care for many years. Right here and now, this Sebas shall drink a thousand needles!”
Huh? No way!
“No! No, no! Sebas, that’s not it! I just cried because I was too moved. That’s all! So don’t drink a thousand needles!”
Don’t rush into something like that, Sebas!
“Ahh, that’s a relief. If I’d really been told to drink a thousand needles, I was worried whether a thousand needles would even fit in my stomach.”
Why are you relieved about that? You were worried about whether a thousand needles would fit in your stomach? Huh? That’s not the part you should be worrying about! Honestly, Sebas…
“Huh? That’s the part you were worried about?!”
Ahaha, I couldn’t help laughing.
Sebas probably knew.
That I was crying because I was happy.
And that he made me laugh so the tears would stop.
Everyone around me is so kind. Thank you.
“Alright, the two kinds of miso soup are done. Let’s have Papa and the others try them.”
“““Yes, understood.”””
Now then, it was dinner time.
Papa, Mama, and Ari were seated at the table.
Mama sat diagonally to Papa’s left.
Ari and I sat side by side diagonally to his right.
Our usual seating position.
Papa, Mama… you two okay? Not breaking out in a cold sweat, are you?
“Well then, Kaito prepared tonight’s dinner, correct? Explain the dishes.”
“Yes. Today I prepared two kinds of miso soup.”
“What is miso soup?”
“The miso taken from the miso bees was aged for half a year, and the miso I had envisioned has finally been completed. The soup made using that miso is miso soup.”
“Mm, I see. Kaito, you may sit. You explained it properly. Well done.”
Papa patted my head. That made me happy.
“Kai-kun, you explained it very well. Such a good boy. You’re even using polite speech properly.”
Mama smiled at me. That made me happy.
“Onii~chama, Ari is excited.”
Ahh, Ari… you’re way too cute.
The angel of our family.
“Thank you.”
“Now then, please bring the miso soup.”
At my signal, the maids served all at once.
Without a sound, carefully and swiftly, they set everything down.
Two soup bowls were placed in front of each person.
“Kaito, why does each person have two soup bowls?”
“I made two kinds.”
“Ugh! Two kinds… do we have to eat both? That’s torture.”
Tch! Papa, you probably thought you muttered that quietly, but I heard you.
“First, the fish soup. Go ahead.”
Even though it’s ara-jiru, I can’t really explain what ara-jiru means.
For a second I almost called it “old-man soup,” but that doesn’t sound tasty at all. “Ojisan soup” sounds awful. So since it’s fish, I just named it fish soup.
““………………””
Papa, Mama, the smell is fine. It doesn’t stink, it smells good. It’s definitely delicious, so stop pinching your noses!
“Papa, Mama, it’s okay. Just try drinking it first.”
“Hm? Huh? Where did that poop smell go? It actually smells pretty good.”
“Oh my, it really does smell delicious.”
Right? Right?
Come on, drink some miso, eat some miso, if you don’t, you’re missing out.
“It looks yummy, Onii~chama. Ari can’t wait anymore. Ari will try it first.”
Gulp…
Gulp, gulp.
Ari! A young lady isn’t supposed to eat so greedily!
Ah~ Papa, Mama, slow down too! No one’s going to take it from you!
“So? Is it good?”
Papa, Mama, and Ari all nodded silently, faces bobbing up and down, and they just kept bringing spoonful after spoonful to their mouths. I couldn’t stop laughing.
“Pahh! That was delicious. What is this incredible taste?”
“This is that miso? I can’t believe how delicious it is.”
“Onii~chama this is so yummy!”
Ugh~ Ari’s smile is way too cute.
Wait, Papa, Mama, that’s fast. You’re eating way too fast!
““Seconds!””
Ahaha, was it really that good?
Why are both of you crying?
“To think those miso bees could taste this good… We wasted so much until now. Ahh…”
“Sebas.”
“Yes, Master.”
“I order the miso bees to be captured from now on.”
“Yes, understood.”
Yep. Just as I expected!
