I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 243
It was approaching 11:30 noon.
Hutaoze Foreign Confectionery Store has officially opened. At this time, the door is already full of waiting customers. Although there is a message on the door that the business hours will be postponed, there are still many customers who are very enthusiastic and queue up early.
At this moment, Hu Taosawa and his wife, who had changed into the costumes of pastry chefs, began to get busy, placing the bread, cakes and other foods that had just been taken out of the oven in the freezer cabinet. The entire pastry shop was occupied by this rich fragrance. When I walked to the door, I announced the official opening, and greeted the guests warmly. Suddenly, the whole pastry shop was crowded with customers.
"...It's a very popular store."
Li Yan watched from the side and said in surprise.
"Hmm, I always feel that bread and pastries taste delicious... Hey, the cake we had for lunch was also made by my uncle and aunt, right? Is the bread made by Satania's family so good?"
Vinette, who has always been interested in cooking, was surprised and asked.
"Jie Jie Jie... This is of course. As a noble Hutazawa family, no matter what we do, we pursue the most perfect thing in the world. The pastries made by my family contain all the hard work of my father and mother, but It’s a reputation that has been accumulated over many years.”
Satania held her back and said arrogantly.
It seems that it was the result of the delay in opening. The store was very busy all of a sudden, and the first batch of bread was sold out soon. This is because this pastry shop pursues freshly made and sold bread, so that the bread has the best taste and the most fragrant taste. After selling out, and seeing that there was still a large queue of customers, Satania's father began to return to the kitchen to prepare the next batch of pastries.
"Santanya, aren't you going to help?" Vinette asked curiously.
"Well, there is help. I usually help greet the guests outside the door. The inside is basically managed by my father and mother." Satania said with a smile.
"...In other words, you are completely useless in key positions?" Vinette narrowed her eyes and looked helplessly at the triumphant Satania.
"Just let me help. I have always been taken care of by my descendants' families, so I have to repay them."
Li Yan looked at the bustling interior of the store and said.
"!" Weinette was slightly startled when she heard what Li Yan said, and then said: "That's right, then I..."
"Wynette, aren't you going home? Your parents should be looking forward to your reunion. It's enough to have me as a helper here. You can go back with peace of mind. I will also disturb Uncle and Aunt Hutao Ze tonight. family, so we need to work harder to repay it.”
Li Yan smiled and told Wynette that after all, Saturday and Sunday were only two days, and he hoped that Wynette could stay at her house for a while.
"...I understand, then, senior, Satami, I will take my leave now and come to visit you early another day. Senior, please thank my aunt and uncle for me."
After thinking for a moment, Wynette nodded, said to them with a smile, bowed slightly, and walked toward the door.
After walking out of the door, Vinette couldn't help but stop and look back at the pastry shop located in a beautiful residential street. She smiled happily. She always felt that although the atmosphere of Hu Taosawa's house was It's a bit strange, but I really feel that this family is quite happy.
Just as they continued to move forward, Vinette saw Satania's younger brother, who was about five or six years old, returning from a friend's house.
"?"
Brother Satania also saw Vinette standing on the street, and immediately greeted him politely: "Hello, sister Vinette."
"Ah, hello, brother Hu Taozawa." Wenette said with a smile.
"Are you going back?"
"Yes, my home is nearby. I'm really sorry to cause you trouble today."
"It's okay. Sister Vinette, please take more care of my sister in the future. She doesn't have many friends. My parents were very happy when they heard that she had made many friends in the human world, so please take care of me more in the future. My sister, let’s play.”
Brother Satania shook his head and spoke to Vinette in a sincere tone.
"Forehead……"
There was a trace of cold sweat on Vinette's forehead. She always felt that compared to Satania, no, compared to the Hutaozawa family, this little boy seemed to be a little ahead of his maturity. He was already able to help his sister take care of her relationships at a young age. It’s related, what’s going on? !
"Um...Sata Miao is one of my most important friends, so I will definitely play with her. I have to rely on your sister a lot of times. The two of us have the best grades among the demon students who graduated in the last class. It’s almost the same. Because I can’t do bad things, it’s difficult for me to even lie. As an unqualified devil... maybe your sister is willing to be with a devil like me. Please take good care of me in the future, brother Kurumizawa.”
After Vinette finished speaking, she walked away, leaving behind this younger brother of Satania.
"Wait a moment……"
However, he suddenly realized something terrible.
Since Vinette's grades are about the same as her sister's, but she is obviously much smarter than her sister, the points deducted from her grades will be clear at a glance.
With a bitter expression on his face, he looked at the demon father in the pastry shop kitchen, who was still showing off how powerful he was when he studied abroad in the human world in front of the plain-faced Li Yan, and thought to himself: "Dad... stop talking... The person in front of you is really a monster..."
※※※
It was busy until 1:30 in the afternoon, and the business was finally over.
In her room, Satania took out a bunch of gold medals and silver cups from elementary school and junior high school sports games from the box. Because silver was lethal to weak demons, she put on gloves and took them out, preparing to give them to her seniors. Show it.
"Sister, what are you doing?" The petite brother asked as he watched her rummaging through the boxes.
"Do you even need to ask? Of course, I want to show all the glory I have gained since childhood to seniors. Seniors finally came here to be a guest. I have to show off myself well."
Satania showed a smile and said: "You are still young and don't know what the rules are for following an outstanding senior, that is, you have to show that you are qualified... Okay, let's put it all away. Just ask senior to come over and take a look."
"..."
Seeing the rare sister who worked so hard to prove herself, he seemed to feel how much his sister worshiped the devil from the east...
In fact, he didn't understand why he had to give out silver medals and cups like humans when he was clearly afraid of the demon world made of silver...
When Satania was happily preparing to go downstairs, the lights were not turned on at the entrance of the stairs. As a result, she walked too fast and accidentally stepped on the air. She rolled down and made a huge rumbling sound.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Li Yan and others on the first floor stuck their heads out and asked.
As a result, I saw Satania at the top of the stairs, dizzy from the fall, bruised and swollen.
"...Ouch...it hurts...my knee is bleeding..." Satania cried immediately.
Li Yan was startled and walked over. He looked at Satania's condition. She seemed to be in good health. Even if she rolled a few times on the stairs, it seemed that she was just scratched and bruised. .
"Okay, no bones were injured, so what exactly happened, Satania, how did you roll down the stairs in your home. How many times has it happened, why are you still so careless, even if you have motor nerves? No matter how good it is, once you make a mistake, you will have to pay the price. How many times do you have to suffer losses before you can remember the lesson?"
After Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief, his face began to look more and more ugly, and he scolded coldly without any politeness in his tone.
"..."
Tears fell from Satania's eyes, but she seemed used to being scolded by Li Yan and did not dare to say a word.
"And Satania, you crybaby, bear with it."
Li Yan took out some disinfectant and hemostatic patches that he brought with him and said expressionlessly.
…
In the corridor at the entrance of the stairs where the sun shone in, Li Yan almost stared at her with extreme seriousness every time. After that, he waited until Satania had cried enough before helping her up. After listening to Satania's words, After realizing the purpose, Li Yan was slightly stunned and followed Satania upstairs.
