”HOT DAMN HOOTCHIE MOMMA...” I looked at armour ratings and had suddenly it has hit more than 11k. Hahahahaha... Not having an OP weapon but rather a set of normal armour with OP capabilities. YES AH... its time to grind for more monsters tomorrow.” I remarked to myself as I packed everything up and inserted into my storage as I went ahead to go for my shower.
Seeing me exit my room, Patricia approached me and asked if I could dab my body in the night and I just smiled at her. Knowing that it's a kind of obligation for her, I simply could carve a smile on my crooked face.
Hah Hah... If I just come out from a shower why would she still need to dab my body with a damp cloth again? Hmm... Dear readers, she might be up to something later tonight right?
I went for a shower and after that, I changed and went to the kitchen to see if the dessert was still there and indeed it was. A solitary steamed banana just for Yours Truly. Hah Hah... I got the rest of the banana and the raw yam and placed it in the steamer and fired it up after filling the pot with water.
”Hi Audemars, what are you doing so late in the kitchen? Are you hungry?” asked Patricia as she hadn't slept and had filled a bucket of water and had a wipe cloth inside it. She had caught me getting a bite from the steamed banana and was putting the rest of the raw bananas and yam inside the steamer.
”Just getting a bite to eat. I'm preparing the bananas and yam for tomorrow's breakfast. Would it be alright if you could get large jicama, a head of cabbage, shallots, chives, spring onions, skinless fried groundnuts, a bottle of spicy spaghetti sauce, 1 kilo of plain flour, a pint of milk, some eggs, breadcrumbs and some carrots? I want to make some Portuguese Rissole tomorrow for morning and afternoon tea as well as supper.”
”That's really a lot. What are your plans for breakfast?” she asked and I simply said I do not have any idea and eat these steamed bananas and yam instead. ”Once you had prepared the breakfast, could you help me to minced those vegetables I had mentioned and crush the fried groundnuts?”
”Take like 8 slices of meat and soak it to remove the salt. Just leave the flour, milk, eggs and breadcrumbs one side. I need to make the skin wrapper first before deep-frying them.” I explained the procedures and she immediately took note of it in her mobile phone app.
”The preparation sounds like a lot, frankly it's about 45 mins to prepare and once it's all done, it could be fried halfway and then refried fully once we wanted to consume it. Don't worry, it is going to be fun...!” I said as I pumped the bellows and shut off the air inlet of the rocket stove.
”You don't have to think too much about breakfast, just reheat this and it's done once the water boils,” I explained as I finished the food I was eating with my hands and washed the saucer.
”The meals you cooked for lunch and dinner was very good. I had kept the recipe and would one day tried it out,” she said and I told her she should try my garlic butter fried rice one day. ”Is it nice?” she asked since she never knew rice could be fried.
”Once you tried it, you would want to have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. So one menu at a time and at least you could be a proficient wife in the future and could whip up any meal or dishes in the future.” the mention of the term 'wife' made her eyes lit up and somehow she looked at me longingly.
I wonder how people get married to one another. See a woman you fancy in the street, clobber the head with a wooden club and carry her on your shoulders if she is a petite lady or pulls her by the hair if she is a little cow. Hah hah hah... There are no signs of faith here except for the crusader logo and a cross on their daggers. Hmm...
I hit the bellows a few times and watched the coals glowed red and then I went back to my room while Patricia followed me behind. We spend half the night chatting about the plans and she asked how is the wealth progress and when I mentioned it to her she was utterly shocked that I had gotten 40k in a single day. A person would normally earn that amount in 4 months.
I explained that due to the desire to open an establishment, sacrifices have to be made. Tomorrow I would be hitting the site of the goblin at least about 50 times again. Upon hearing it she was shocked but she understood my sheer determination to raise the funds needed.
She didn't dab my body that night but she sat on the floor and laid her head down on the side of the bed and I patted her head and let her snuggle in that manner till the cock crows.
