Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Foley's Parent-Child Time

"Are you hungry, Braun?

We'll have dinner when your dad comes back.

Let me help you take off the scarf around your neck."

Millie Foley said lovingly to Braun.

"It's okay mom.

I drank a glass of pumpkin juice in Diagon Alley and am not very hungry now. "

"Your dad bought it for you again?

I told him many times..."

"Ya Ya, You can't let him drink anything that is cold in the winter.

And drinking too much of the spices in pumpkin juice is not good for children..."

Mr. Foley repeated helplessly as he made his way towards them, while handing the gloves and coat to Dolly, the house-elf.

"You remember that, but you still buy it for him!"

Millie Foley said angrily to her husband with big beautiful eyes.

Albert Foley said as if coaxing a child:

"Okay, okay.

My dear Millie, I won't do it next time. "

Mrs. Foley would not stop.

One has to admit that the relationship between the two of them is indeed very good.

Mr. Foley wiped his hands with a warm, damp towel:

"Dolly, what's today's dinner?"

"The main course is grilled steak. It is paired with Yorkshire pudding.

The side meal is mashed potatoes with broccoli. "

"What's for soup?"

"We prepared borscht and creamy mushroom soup."

"Which do you like Braun?"

"Borscht."

"Well, let's get borscht. And serve apple pie for dessert. "

"Yes, sir."

Dolly replied respectfully.

It didn't take long for a variety of dishes appear on the table.

Braun had to say, even after a month of being here, though he is already very familiar with flying knives and forks.

But seeing how under the flying knives and forks, the steak is cut into evenly bite sized pieces, he is always amazed by magic of the house elves.

"How is the steak?

This was sent over by your uncle.

It is said that what Angus cattle are famous in the Muggle world. "

Mr. Foley asked while eating the steak.

"It's delicious."

Braun replied.

The surface of the steak is well fried, and the marble lines are faintly visible.

It is topped with some cheese as a seasoning, and a circle of bacon is rolled around it.

A marbled steak like this, it is the first time Braun has seen it.

In his previous life, he was just a regular Tom who went to work before finishing high school.

Where could he get the money to eat such an expensive steak?

It has to be said that although the price of this beef is very expensive, but the taste is really good. 

Braun then turned his attention to the Yorkshire pudding.

Yorkshire pudding, although the name is pudding, is actually more like a type of bread, and the taste is similar to soft bread.

Slightly salty, it has the shape of a coffee cup, with a concave and soft interior and crispy exterior.

Simply put, Yorkshire pudding is a bread baked with proper cooking techniques, which is very delicious and savory, especially with juicy meats.

Braun divided the pudding in half.

Picked up half of the steak-stained broth and stuff it into his mouth for a special flavor.

"Something like Angie white film with bacon? Strange idea. "

" Braun! How many times have I said that only the little boys who eats more vegetables can grow taller. "

"Okay mom, but I really don't like broccoli."

Unable to bear the fiery gaze, Braun reluctantly, stuffed mashed potatoes and broccoli into his mouth.

It took Braun some real effort to shove these things into his mouth that had no taste or even softness when cooked.

The thing he hates the most is broccoli.

He always feels like this food exists to torture humans.

As for mashed potatoes...

Try eating mashed potatoes everyday for a month to see what it's like.

At first, Braun was surprised and liked them.

But gradually he became disgusted with these foods.

So not only did he not become strong by eating meat all day.

On the contrary, he started to look a lot thinner as days pass by.

This also made Mrs. Foley a little worried about his health.

Obviously he used to eat well, why has he become a picky eater after his magical outburst?

"Okay, okay.

If you don't want to eat it, don't force yourself to eat it.

Try the borscht, Braun? "

Mr. Foley as usual was the first to pamper him and ended up taking the heat.

"You are the reason he is spoiled like this ....."

A dinner ended with a lot of talk.

But Braun was very satisfied with the food.

Borscht tastes good.

Reminds him of the tomato beef soup cooked by the orphanage director.

So he continued to drink two large bowls with a nostalgic look.

At the moment, he is sitting on the sofa and touching his stomach with satisfaction.

"Do you want to start the next simulation when the cooldown is over?"

A prompt appeared in Braun's eyes.

If it weren't for the prompt, he would have almost forgotten that he still had a Gold Finger.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Braun stood up hurriedly:

"I'm heading up to my bedroom to study!"

After speaking, he ran upstairs.

"Why are you going to study again! Braun take a break! "

Mrs. Foley said with some dissatisfaction.

After the meal, it was usually a rare parent-child time in the Foley nest.

But due to the simulation chance, Braun forgot all about it and rushed to his room, turning this parent-child time be forced into a rare world for two.

Originally, Mrs. Foley planned to take advantage of the opportunity to tell her lovely son a story and try to motivate him to eat more vegetables.

But she didn't expect that as soon as they had just finished eating, her baby boy can not wait to ignore his mother and run off to his books breaking the tradition.
