Chapter 959: Xiaoyao wants to become a disciple
"? Xiaoyao wants to be a chef?" Heath was a little shocked. He looked at Qianli and then at Xiaoyao, and even wondered if he had heard it wrong. But seeing Qianli's serious look, Heath knew that Qianli was probably serious, and Xiaoyao also looked at him with expectant eyes. It must be said that this made Heath a little confused. He originally thought that Qianli intended to let him cook a few more times or wanted to ask for some unique food, but Heath never expected that Qianli actually intended to let Xiaoyao worship him as a master?
This is really surprising. After all, Heath always thought that the protagonists in the original games, such as Haruka, would become excellent trainers. Even if Haruka became a coordinator in the future, that would be considered a regular profession. He never thought that Haruka would actually plan to become a chef. What is this? Has the world line changed? Heath is a little confused. If Haruka becomes a chef, will Ash still be able to meet Haruka when he travels to the Hoenn region in the future? Will there still be some kind of bond between them? Heath is not sure.
"Well, this child is very interested in cooking." Qianli smiled gently. He looked at his baby daughter and felt for the first time that his daughter had grown up and had her own ideas. She was no longer the little girl who pulled his hand to lift it up every day. This made Qianli inexplicably feel that he was getting old. Heath scratched his head, looking at Xiaoyao's expectant eyes, and the child obviously regarded him as an idol . He also knew that Xiaoyao was probably serious, but it seemed that it was not impossible to accept him as a disciple. The only problem was that he didn't know how to teach Xiaoyao to guess the guests' tastes.
Heath hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he had no objection . And there was another key issue. If he took Xiaoyao in, then Xiaoyao could replace Farfetch'd after training and help Farfetch'd. In this way, Farfetch'd could also rest, which was a good thing. Now Zoroark and Kirlia were taking turns to work, and Farfetch'd couldn't find anyone to replace him, so he could only come to work every day. Heath felt that Farfetch'd also needed some time to rest.
It's not bad to let Xiaoyao be his student. Children of this age have a strong learning ability. It is said that one should practice martial arts and study while young. Even learning to cook is the same. If you start practicing when you are young, you can become an excellent chef in the future. Otherwise, the later you start learning, the more effort you will need to put in. It can be said that this is more troublesome, so it is indeed a good choice for Xiaoyao to learn when he is still young.
But the problem now is that Heath will not stay in Chenghua City for too long, or even in the Hoenn region. He has his own things to do. In a few days, Heath will return to the Kanto region to continue his journey. But if I accept Xiaoyao as my apprentice, where will Xiaoyao live? Will she follow me back? But if she doesn't follow me back and stays in the Hoenn region, in just two days, let alone learning to be a chef, she can be said to be cheating if she can practice with a kitchen knife .
In two days, you can’t memorize much ancient poetry, and cooking skills need to be practiced from the basics. Knife skills are very important. How can you be a chef if you can’t even cut the vegetables properly?
" Of course you can, but the problem is that I won't stay in Hoenn for too long. I'll be going back to Kanto in two days." Heath raised his question. Although Heath didn't say it explicitly, Qianli understood what Heath meant. It has to be said that this made him a little hesitant. Although every child in the Pokémon world can embark on a journey to study, travel, and even participate in Pokémon battles to collect badges when they reach the age of ten, Xiaoyao is still some time away from being ten years old, and Qianli is reluctant to let Xiaoyao leave the Hoenn region.
A mother worries about her son even when he is far away. Hoenn and Kanto are still some distance apart, although it wouldn't take too long to fly over and take a look.
However, Qianli still didn't say anything, but looked at his daughter. He planned to see what his daughter thought. If his daughter wanted to go, Qianli would not stop her. However, at that time, he would have to let his daughter find a way to persuade her mother, otherwise, if her mother disagreed, Xiaoyao could not go.
Xiaoyao was not stupid, of course, she understood what this meant, and she was obviously very conflicted. After all, leaving her hometown to travel was something that every child would experience, especially for a child like her, because her father was the gym leader, so she would definitely not have to worry about money to travel. But if she left now, Xiaoyao always felt a little reluctant, and where would she live when the time came? Xiaoyao remembered that some news about Heath said that Mr. Heath's dining car had a special lounge. Could it be that she would sleep in Mr. Heath's lounge when the time came?
"Don't worry, I still have to stay in Chenghua City for a while. You can go back and think about it slowly." Heath comforted Xiaoyao. This kind of thing must be very confusing for a child, so it is not surprising that Xiaoyao is so confused. It is better to let Xiaoyao go back and think about it slowly. As for where Xiaoyao sleeps, Heath has already thought about it. His dining car lounge has been expanded, so he can just give Xiaoyao her room. Moreover, Heath himself has no idea about girls of Xiaoyao's age, so there is no need to consider safety issues.
Of course, although Heath thought so, he didn't know what others thought.
"The dishes are served. Would you like anything else to eat?" Heath asked Xiaoyao and Qianli with a smile. Although there was a dessert after the meal, Heath looked at Xiaoyao and Qianli and thought that they probably couldn't eat anymore, so he didn't make any.
"No, no, these dishes are a lot. Thank you for your help, Mr. Heath." Qianli waved his hands quickly. He didn't know if he could finish so many dishes. Although it seemed that the portions made by Heath were not very large, Qianli felt that he probably couldn't eat more. Besides, Xiaoyao seemed to be worried now, so he probably wouldn't be able to finish it either.
"Can we take it away?" Qianli asked, and Heath nodded. His restaurant didn't have any strange rules, so it was naturally no problem if they wanted to take it away.
