Chapter 1141??
The kitchen of the Harris Island Manor, because of the participation in the design of the portrait of Helga Hufflepuff hanging here, although she was also driven to the living room by Allen at this time, the paintings that failed to stay in the kitchen box.
It looks somewhat similar to the kitchen in Hogwarts. It is a large room with high ceilings, which is larger than the dining room. There are many gleaming copper pots and basins piled on the surrounding stone walls, and The food storage cabinets that had been enchanted with freshness in the Hogwarts kitchens were completely missing.
Instead, those places are filled with beautiful, diamond-like flashes of jumping light, and the walls are covered with clocks, they are different in size, there are grandfather clocks and travel clocks, and a rapid and endless ticking sound fills the air. Beyond this corner, it sounded like thousands of subtle footsteps marching in line. The diamond-like bright jumping light came from the bell-shaped crystal glass covers in front of these clocks, in which various ingredients were stored, and Constantly changing the growth form - the cut mutton changes its meat quality in this time zone, although this does not make it resurrect from a piece of meat to a sheep, but it also makes it continue to grow from lamb to old mutton and then everything starts again Return to the ring.
In addition to the traditional large fireplace and oven at the other end, Hufflepuff, who has accepted modern cooking skills, also placed a lot of modern kitchen utensils here—many of them are Muggle kitchen utensils and wizards that are being developed by Umbrella. Experimental products, they are not yet on the market, but a few prototypes are given priority to the experience of the company's big boss.
But Alan, who has been in the kitchen for a while, hasn't used them yet. In fact, he found out when he was cooking that it takes a lot of practice to make good food—but fortunately, he is self-aware. Choosing something today is not complicated, and he himself is still struggling with those ball-shaped fish with two long legs and a spherical body on the chopping board.
Alan, who has never practiced knife skills, although his cutting skills are not good, but at least he has good attainments in magic. He didn't take any tools, and stroked the body of the fish with his hands like healed the fish. The colorful ball fish went crazy, its long webbed feet kicked wildly, and it also tried to bite Alan with its mouth, because the fish suddenly found itself in pain, and was stripped off by the wizard in front of it. clean.
Maggie in a little blue dress is following Alan, as Alan's little assistant, with the kind made by Luna that can protect against the time converter, she is putting some old mushrooms into the clock The shaped crystal glass cover is adjusted to be tender.
Originally, Kreacher of Black hid behind the apron rack at the door, secretly watching Ellen and Maggie's every move with jealous eyes. He murmured, "Old Kreacher is much better than that little guy. In the past, the mistress gave all the housework to Kreacher. Kreacher was the best... Oh, how could the master do it himself... This is a house elf Shame! See, what will others say if they find out..."
When Penello walked into the kitchen, she heard the murmur under the shelf. She walked over lightly and horizontally, stretched out her long arms, and reached for a small floral apron. elf.
Penelope snorted coldly, stretched out her long legs and kicked Kreacher to the side just enough without hurting the old elf——it was only then that Kreacher realized that his peeping behavior was being punished by the Muggle in front of him. The vicious witch found out, and knowing that she was not easy to provoke, he apologized and was about to run away, but the long nose and bloodshot eyes looked like Penelope, who had a bad relationship with Kreacher on weekdays. It's even less cute in the eyes.
Hearing the movement behind him and the rustling of the other party's apron,
Allen suspended the fish in his hand in the air so that he could not take advantage of it, then turned around and looked over: "Penello, are you hungry? We have to wait."
"Alan, you have been busy for a long time," Penello looked at Alan's pale and slender hands helplessly, and licked her lips with the tip of her tongue. She imagined some delicious things that these hands could make, and then shook her hands firmly. Shaking his head, he drove those delicious dishes out of his mind, and raised a smiling face to Allen, and his voice changed a little, "You tell me how to do it, and I will do it."
"Don't believe my craftsmanship?" Allen smiled and turned around and walked over, "Then help me do some preparations, I will cook later or I will come by myself...otherwise the other people who are called back will laugh at me Isn't it?" Then he lightly pressed Penello on the shoulders and turned her around, and began to tie her apron.
At this time, Maggie, who had been silent all the time, waved to Allen from the glass cover. Allen looked at the other party with some doubts, and found that Maggie used her prosthetic limb with gloves to take the most colorful ball fish. The fat one grabbed it, and then looked at Allen eagerly.
Allen paused for a few seconds before he understood the meaning of this loyal house elf. He smiled wryly and nodded to Maggie, only to find that the other party had put away the fish—she planned to keep it for her pregnant mistress .
Penello, who was wearing an apron by Allen, lost the Auror's vigilance. She almost put her back in Allen's arms. She was very happy with this state and turned her head to look at Allen and asked in a sharp voice: " So Ellen, what should I do? Is there a recipe? What dish?"
"Help me put some mutton on the frozen mutton, remember the mutton soup you made last semester? This time it's also Qiu Zhang's dish, the taste is different from last time... the recipe is in my mind... Hmm? Don't look at me like that, you know that Cedric and Cho Chang are getting married, right?!" Allen looked helplessly at the change in the female Auror's expression, and put his hand between his chest and abdomen and the other's back I twitched so that I could continue to tie the apron belt under this body-to-body squeeze, "I just went to Qiu Zhang's parents' house today to ask for some condiments, and I only saw her parents..."
"I'm not... Ellen..." Penello's pale face began to flush again, "Morgan Le Fay is pregnant, and pregnant women should be more afraid of these fishy things." ——Penello and Lenn are neither Didn't tell the rest of the family that the mutton they ate that day was a lost pet from Aberforth in the Hog's Head.
"Ah?" Allen was a little surprised to find that he hadn't thought about it so much. He asked a little uncertainly, "What about the fish? As for the colored ball fish, can pregnant women eat it?"
"Morgan Le Fay is fine, and the ball fish has no fishy smell..." Penello was a little confused because of the name, "What should I do with the fish?"
"I prepared three kinds of food today... I think it's okay to eat dairy products, but if mother doesn't like mutton, then I have to prepare some other meat..." Although Alan caught the other party's expression, But he moved his hand away from the opponent's back with a natural expression, "Let me show you...Maggie, please help catch two." Allen asked the house elf to bring the ball fish over, and then According to the law, the fish scales on the ball fish that started kicking around were completely removed, and then the internal organs of the fish were also transported out of the fish's stomach, causing its death quickly, and then began to move carefully with hands little by little , "This process is a bit troublesome. I wanted to ensure the integrity of the fish when removing the bones, so I didn't cut them open, so I used this stupid method."
"Giggle..." Penello seemed to be amused by Allen's actions. She put one arm around her chest and touched her white chin with the other hand and said with some pride, "Look at the sister, I have A more convenient spell... I'll teach you how... that fellow Lockhart has used it to kill a lot of Death Eaters."
Penello didn't wait for Alan to respond, she started to do it after she finished speaking, and she directly and neatly tied the remaining two long legs of the colored ball fish around her body, which was kicked in Alan's hands before. The guy was as if he had been petrified and could not move. "The mermaid will treat the ball fish as a scourge, and will tie its long legs into a knot and let it drift away with the water." Then Penello and Allen took out the fish scales and internal organs in the same way as before, but then she waved her finger and pointed at the lost ball fish, shaking it, and shouted a spell, "Fishbone Fishbone Repair."
Under the effect of magic, this poor little guy collapsed in an instant, losing all his bones.
"Beautiful job! Sister!" Allen echoed Penello, and he recalled the appearance of the other party casting a spell, "I remember this spell... Was it originally invented by Lockhart on purpose? This guy didn't expect to hide it. It's much deeper than I imagined..."
"No... He really couldn't practice the healing spell at first... I heard her describe how powerful Lockhart is when I was teaching little Patricia... I asked that ghost to question..." Penelope Raising an eyebrow, "It turned out that he made mistakes in the pronunciation and the shaking of the wand when using this healing magic, but it is the same as the levitation spell that can summon the bison on the chest... This has become an attack spell... Although It’s not that powerful but it’s very practical, and it’s okay to use it in cooking…”
"When the university is really on the right track in terms of education, I don't think so many newly invented spells are accidental..." Allen paused, "Well, I'm sorry it's not the time to talk about these, Penello, then you Just help me deal with the other colored ball fish, I just happen to make a copper pot..."
"Okay, what's next? Is there anything else to deal with?" Penello asked.
"I'll do the cooking by myself. It's rare to have such an idea. Although the craftsmanship may be a bit poor...but this is the first time I cook for you, so it's more meaningful for me to do it myself..." Allen said in a tone Some unconfidently explained to Penello, and then suddenly paused and said, "After handling the fish, help me get the phonograph in the living room to the dining room. I plan to use special effects and The way of background music to make up... er, I mean extra points..."
