Chapter 444 The Test of Jixing Lao
"Squeak~"
With the sound of a door being opened that seemed like it had not been repaired for many years, Chen Anxia and Miyoko Hojo slowly walked into the interior of the Pole Star Residence.
The dim sight and the old Western-style environment, just like the haunted houses that often appear on TV, added to the spooky feeling and made Hojo Miyoko suddenly nervous.
At this moment, an old voice suddenly came from the stairs directly in front of us and said, "Oh, are you the two newcomers checking in today?"
The attention of Chen Anxia and Miyoko Hojo was immediately attracted, and a short, stooped figure slowly appeared in the dim sight. The old face looked a bit ferocious and gloomy at this moment.
Before Chen Anxia could say anything, Miyoko Hojo on the side couldn't help shouting in horror, "De... appeared, it's a ghost!!!"
At the same time, Miyoko Hojo couldn't help but shrank behind Chen Anxia, not daring to show her head. This was the first time Chen Anxia saw such a girly side of Miyoko Hojo, and she couldn't help but shook her head with a smile.
At this time, the old figure said angrily, "How rude, you actually called me, the 'Mother of the Pole Star,' Granny Wenxu, a ghost."
"Grandma Wenxu, you can't blame her, after all, the environment here is too easy for people to have bad associations." Chen Anxia said with a smile.
That's right, the person who appeared in front of Chen Anxia and Hojo Miyoko was the housekeeper of the Pole Star Residence, Omidou Fumio, who was called the "Pole Star Mother Yaksha". As for the "Pole Star Madonna", it was Omidou Fumio who named it to herself. No one agrees with the title.
"Well, that's true." Omidou Fumio unexpectedly nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
At the same time, Omidou Fumio ignored Miyoko Hojo's rudeness, looked at Chen Anxia and asked, "You should have prepared the ingredients."
"Of course." Chen Anxia responded with a smile.
"Then come with me." Omidou Fumio saw this and said directly, while leading the way and motioning for Chen Anxia and Hojo Miyoko to follow.
Miyoko Hojo came to her senses at this time and knew that she had made a big mistake, especially when she made a fool of herself in front of Chen Anxia. She lowered her head involuntarily, her face turned red with embarrassment.
But gradually, Miyoko Hojo was attracted by the surrounding environment. Although the environment of the Pole Star Residence inside was relatively old, it actually didn't look that eerie under the bright lights.
Soon, under the guidance of Omidou Fumio, Chen Anxia and Hojo Miyoko arrived at their destination, a large modern high-end kitchen that did not match the old appearance of Jisei Liao. In it, various kitchen utensils and common cooking equipment were placed. You can see it here.
Hojo Miyoko looked at the surrounding environment with some surprise. She really didn't expect that there would be such a place in the humble Jokusei Residence.
At the same time, Hojo Miyoko's curiosity reached its peak, and she could no longer hold back her curiosity and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Oh, didn't you know?" Omidou Fumio looked at Miyoko Hojo in surprise and asked.
"Is there anything I should know?" Miyoko Hojo responded in confusion.
"Grandma Fumio, Hojo is not the resident student this time. Another resident student is still on the way. Hojo just sent me here," Chen Anxia said at this time.
As he spoke, Chen Anxia began to check the kitchen equipment and prepare this meal. During the preparation process, Chen Anxia did not pay attention to the chat between Omidou Fumio and Hojo Miyoko.
Omidou Fumio was a little stunned when he heard this. At the same time, he looked at Chen Anxia and Hojo Miyoko and said with some ambiguity, "It's great to be young. I think I also had such a youthful and restless period back then."
Hearing this, Miyoko Hojo immediately knew that Omidou Fumio was thinking wrongly, and couldn't help but hurriedly explained, "My relationship with An Xia is not what you think, we are just..."
"I know, I know everything." Omidou Fumio didn't wait for Hojo Miyoko to finish speaking.
He interrupted Miyoko Hojo and said with an "I know everything" expression, "Young people like to be secretive like this as romance. It's understandable. I was the same way back then."
As Omidou Fumio spoke, he did not give Hojo Miyoko a chance to continue speaking, and then said, "But it's just right for you to be here. If you wait until this kid is unqualified, you can just take him away."
Hearing this, Miyoko Hojo didn't care what happened just now. She couldn't help but said in astonishment, "Mother-in-law, what are you talking about? What's unqualified?"
Omidou Fumio looked at Chen Anxia, who was taking out the ingredients and making preparations, and slowly explained, "Not everyone can live in our Jixing Residence. If you want to live in Jixing Residence, you must pass the test."
"This test is also very simple. It's about cooking. As long as you can cook something that satisfies me, you can stay at Ji Xing Lao. Of course, you can bring your own ingredients."
Miyoko Hojo couldn't help being stunned when she heard this. Miyoko Hojo didn't expect that Jokusei Residence had such weird rules. Is this still the student dormitory in her mind? However, this also shows that this Jiexing Lao does not seem to be that simple.
At the same time, Miyoko Hojo also understood why Chen Anxia had to prepare those materials before coming. It seemed that Chen Anxia had already known about the regulations of Jiexingliao.
Thinking of this, Miyoko Hojo couldn't help but said confidently, "An Xia will definitely pass the test."
Omidou Fumio couldn't help but smile when he heard this and said, "My test is not that easy to pass. I have tasted the dishes made by countless students over the years, and my taste is very tricky."
Miyoko Hojo couldn't help but smile when she heard this and said, "Mother-in-law, which one is more sophisticated, your taste or that of Takeda Asako-sensei?"
"Takeda Asako?" Omidou Fumio didn't expect Hojo Miyoko to say this name. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said without hesitation, "That must be Takeda Asako. No one in Totsuki Academy knows this. The reputation of Smiling Shura."
"Then if I say that An Xia received the highest praise from Mr. Takeda Asako in today's cooking class, would you still think that An Xia failed your test?" Miyoko Hojo said with a slight curl of her mouth.
"What did you say!?" Dai Midang Wenxu couldn't help but feel a little shocked when he heard this.
However, Omidou Fumio was a person who had gone through big storms after all. He quickly adjusted his mentality and calmed down. At the same time, he looked at Miyoko Hojo and joked, "Does his achievements make you so proud?"
Miyoko Hojo's face suddenly froze when she heard this, and she couldn't help but panic. At this moment, Miyoko Hojo felt that her heart was a little confused, and at the same time she secretly said in her heart, "Yes, why does his achievement make me feel Proud, can you say..."
The more she thought about it, the more confused Hojo Miyoko became.
Omidou Fumio couldn't help but smile when he saw this. He stopped teasing Miyoko Hojo. Instead, he looked at Chen Anxia and said to himself, "If what Miyoko Hojo said is true, then this newcomer's cooking is really worth it." It’s something to look forward to.”
