Mag finished the first plate of Yangzhou fried rice very soon and walked out with it.
When Sally saw the tray on Mag’s hand, her eyes brightened immediately. It’s so wonderful! This is that Yangzhou fried rice? The rice was coated with golden eggs; each ingredient was chopped into the size of a rice grain. The colors were all mixed in the plate, but in an orderly manner. The whole thing was like an elaborate piece of art. Its freshness whetted her appetite.
When Mag walked past her with the fried rice, a strong aroma wafted by, and she couldn’t help but take a sniff. She smelled eggs and the mixed smell of different ingredients, which made her even hungrier. She turned to look in Mobai’s direction in spite of herself.
"Your Yangzhou fried rice, please enjoy." Mag put the plate down in front of Mobai, with a spoon on the edge of the plate.
"Thank you." Mobai looked at the fried rice before him and couldn’t tear his eyes away from it. He couldn’t refrain from taking a deep sniff of the aroma that was tickling his nose. Although he had eaten four plates for his lunch already, he hadn’t lost his interest at all; instead, he wanted more, so when he finished his work in the afternoon, he wasted no time in coming here after he washed and changed.
Mobai picked up the spoon and brought a spoonful of rice to his mouth. He chewed carefully. The taste of the mixed ingredients spread out in his mouth immediately and slid down his throat like a warm current. Mobai felt warm all over. The fatigue from his work in the afternoon was relieved right away, and he felt so good that he wanted to cry out.
"It’s so good! Even if I eat it a hundred times, I’ll still find it good!" Mobai took another spoonful, and then one spoonful after another; he just couldn’t stop his hands.
Compared to his gobbling it at noon, he carefully chewed his dinner, tasting the flavor of every ingredient. This way, his taste buds were greatly satisfied, and he found the dish even more tasteful.
Sally heard herself swallow her saliva. She panicked for an instant. Fortunately, Mag was already in the kitchen preparing the second plate, and Mobai was too preoccupied with his dinner to notice her.
Is it really that good? Sally thought as she watched Mobai stuff himself with the colorful fried rice happily.
The aroma permeating the air was tempting her. Her expression indicated that she was struggling inwardly. She gripped her purse subconsciously. In it were only 12 dragon coins and eight gold coins; her senses were telling her that she couldn’t spend money randomly anymore.
However, it indeed
On top of that, she felt like trying the fried rice in the dwarf’s plate as she watched him eating, though she had always found these bearded beings obnoxious. She was ashamed of this feeling.
I’m a noble elf! How could I think that? Sally clenched her fist, but she still couldn’t tear her eyes away from the fried rice. How painful!
Mobai finished his first plate of fried rice, and not even one rice grain remained. He put down the spoon, not quite satisfied. When he lifted his eyes and caught Sally looking at him, he froze for an instant, but then he smiled. "Mag’s Yangzhou fried rice is really good, girl. You would regret it if you didn’t give it a try."
"Yeah, right." Sally turned away. Her pride as an elf made her unable to accept the food the dwarf recommended. Yet, looking at the menu before her, she was wrestling with herself again.
Perhaps he hasn’t eaten anything good. Maybe that’s why he finds it delicious?
The wet nurse once told me that humans touch the ingredients directly with their hands. Is it really safe to eat the food touched by that man?
Perhaps it’s fine for me to spend 600 copper coins on this meal? I still have 12 dragon coins, and I would spend the rest more carefully.
Mobai shrugged at her indifference and didn’t take it to heart, waiting for his seconds in expectation.
The elves are all like that, considering themselves better than the other species,Mobai thought. Judging from the color of her hair, she seems to be from one of the royal families. Actually, it’s very kind of her—she is sitting in the same restaurant with a dwarf.
Mobai felt like he was reborn after the four plates of Yangzhou fried rice at noon, comfortable all over, but perhaps because he had eaten too much for his lunch, he didn’t feel very hungry, so two plates were just enough for his dinner.
…
A childish voice with some sleepiness in it sounded from behind the counter. "Father…"
Mobai’s eyes brightened immediately, and he looked in the direction of the counter expectantly. The little girl was so cute. He had been despised by her several times at noon, and pretty much tricked into eating four plates of Yangzhou fried rice, but when he heard her voice, none of it mattered at all.
He closed his shop early, washed, and changed to come to this restaurant because he wanted to eat that delicious Yangzhou fried rice, yet that was not his sole reason. He had to admit that he came here to see that lovely little girl as well.
Sally was also a little surprised when she heard Amy’s voice. She looked to the counter. Sounds like a little girl, and she is the daughter of the owner?
While Sally was thinking, a little girl in her fluffy purple clothes appeared from behind the counter. She turned her little head and looked out. When she turned her gaze to Sally, she was taken aback as if she felt she had been mistaken. She rubbed her eyes and looked again. Her eyes widened immediately. She turned to his father in the kitchen, and said, "Father, look! A very beautiful elf big sister!"
So cute! Sally felt like her heart stopped for a moment. The look of the little girl rubbing her eyes in her purple bear sleepwear was extremely adorable, like a lovely little bear.
No, she was much lovelier than a little bear. Her fair and sweet little face made her want to pinch it, and her words from excitement made her blush a little. They were just innocent words from a child; nonetheless, she felt very happy.
Soon, Sally found herself looking at Amy’s pointy ears showing through her silver hair. She was a little surprised. She is a half-elf?
Mag walked out with the second fried rice and put it down before Mobai. He stroked Amy’s ahoge and smiled. "Amy waked up so soon."
Amy nodded. "Yes, Amy waked up and is hungry. Amy wants to eat Father’s rainbow fried rice, so I have come downstairs." Then she pointed at Sally excitedly. "And Father, that elf big sister is so beautiful. Amy has never seen someone so beautiful."
"Amy will be as beautiful as her when you grow up." Mag went down beside Amy whose mouth was still slightly open. He smiled at Sally, and said, "Right, Miss?"
