Chapter 728 Commemorating the Distant Hometown
Looking at the three girls whose friendship was broken up just for a name, Hanyu Kusunoki shook his head with a smile.
"Okay, okay," he walked over and picked up Yuanzi, who was standing on the table and arguing like a little fighter. "How about this, we use 'Chocolate Raspberry Golden Dumplings' for the official menu, but during special events we can launch a limited edition 'Love Dumplings' series?"
Sonoko's eyes lit up immediately, she hugged Hanyu Kusunoki's arm, and said coquettishly: "Kusu is the best! Then I want to be the first to launch the 'Kusunoko's Love Dumplings'!"
"No, we should go by age." Xiao Ai held her chin, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "'Kusanlan's Love Dumplings' comes out first."
"I, I'm fine..."
Xiaolan waved her hand. The feelings between her and Nan were deep and sincere, and could not be fully expressed by just a name.
When I argued with Sonoko just now, I was just teasing her as a good sister and enjoying this intimate time together.
Hanyu Kusunoki looked at the three girls preparing to start a new round of argument and smiled helplessly: "How about this, let's draw lots to decide the order, it's fair and just."
"..."
Yuanzi: "..."
Xiao Ai: “…”
The atmosphere in the store suddenly became quiet. The eldest lady and the little girl looked at Hanyu Nan speechlessly, not knowing whether to say something or not.
Sonoko and Ai both showed an expression of "Are you serious?" They looked at each other and tacitly reached a temporary alliance.
"Nan, are you serious?" Sonoko let go of Hanyu Nan's arm, put her hands on her hips, and put on a posture of questioning, "Let Xiaolan draw lots? What's the difference between this and directly announcing her the winner?"
Xiao Ai added expressionlessly: "According to statistics, Mao Lilan's luck value has exceeded the normal human range. Last month, she won three special prizes in a row in the convenience store lottery, which scared the store manager and thought the machine was broken."
"I, I'm not that exaggerated..." Xiaolan twisted her fingers awkwardly, her cheeks slightly flushed, "I was just a little bit lucky that time..."
Her voice became quieter and quieter, and she seemed a little embarrassed about her good luck.
"Just a little bit?" Yuanzi gestured exaggeratedly, waving her hands in the air, trying to emphasize the seriousness of the matter. "The capsule machine where you won the prize was later confirmed to have a wrong probability setting. The actual winning rate is 0.0001%!"
Hanyu Kusunoki touched his chin and felt that something was wrong: "How about this, let's change the method - use rock-paper-scissors to decide the order."
"Rock, paper, scissors?" the three asked in unison.
"Yes, but it's not just ordinary rock-paper-scissors." Hanyu Kusunoki smiled, "We're playing 'dumpling rock-paper-scissors', the rules are..."
He pulled out three small dumpling dolls from his pocket like a magician: "Rock is a fried dumpling, scissors is a boiled dumpling, and cloth is a steamed dumpling. It's a best-of-three game, and the winner gets to decide the order."
Xiao Ai narrowed her eyes: "When did you prepare these?"
"I just found it in the kitchen." Hanyu Kusunoki blinked, "There are various dumpling models in Chef Nakajima's sample room."
A qualified chef must love what he does.
Triple the salary is no joke.
Sonoko grabbed a fried dumpling doll and said, "This is so cute! I want this!"
Xiaolan picked up the dumpling doll hesitantly: "Then... I choose this one..."
Xiao sighed and picked up the last steamed dumpling doll: "Childish."
Although she said this, her fingers unconsciously pinched the doll's soft belly.
"Well, get ready—" Hanyu Kusunoki raised his hand, "Dumpling, rock-paper-scissors, start!"
“Fried dumplings!”
“Dumplings!”
“Steamed dumplings!”
Round 1: Yuanzi makes fried dumplings, Xiaolan makes boiled dumplings, and Xiaoai makes steamed dumplings.
"Fried dumplings are better than steamed dumplings, steamed dumplings are better than boiled dumplings, and boiled dumplings are better than fried dumplings," Hanyu Kusunoki announced. "So this round Sonoko beats Ai, Ai beats Ran, and Ran beats Sonoko...it's a draw!"
Yuanzi pouted: "What? It's so complicated!"
"Come again!" Xiao Ai held the doll tightly in defiance.
The second round begins.
“Fried dumplings!”
“Dumplings!”
“Steamed dumplings!”
The same result occurred again.
"This is not scientific..." Xiao Ai frowned, "Theoretically, the three options should be..."
Round three.
“Fried dumplings!”
“Dumplings!”
“Steamed dumplings!”
"Another draw!" Sonoko ruffled her short hair frantically, "There's something wrong with this game!"
Xiaolan raised her hand weakly: "How about...we try another way?"
Xiao Ai silently looked at someone beside her with a slight smile on his face. Even if she was stupid, she could tell something was wrong. What's more, she was a super talented and beautiful girl who graduated with a double doctorate degree at the age of 18.
According to probability theory.
It is impossible for all three to have the same result.
But Newton's coffin would not be able to close if he met someone, let alone just the theory of probability.
At this moment, Hanyu Kusunoki suddenly clapped his hands: "I have a good idea!"
"Huh?" The three turned to look at him.
Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and slowly told her plan: "Why don't we add an ultimate version! Combining the three people's ideas together - 'Kusen Ran Ai's Love Dumplings'!"
Xiao Ai's mouth twitched: "...The name is too long."
She couldn't help but complain, but at the same time she saw through Hanyu Nan's little thoughts. This guy's wolfish ambitions were obvious.
The dog man is really good at carrying water.
Don't offend anyone, and most importantly, get the advantage.
"But it's very memorable!" Sonoko was the first to agree: "It represents the common wishes of the four of us!"
Xiaolan smiled gently: "I think this is a good idea."
Xiao Ai looked at the expectant eyes of the three people, and finally sighed: "...It's up to you."
She was just fooling around with Yuanzi, but when she saw everyone was having so much fun, she didn't have the heart to object anymore.
The name problem was finally solved satisfactorily, and after some discussion, several people sat together and decided to use the simpler name - "Chocolate Raspberry Golden Dumplings" in normal times, and only during special events would they launch a special version full of the love of the four people - "Kusuzono Ran'ai's Love Dumplings".
In addition, every customer who purchases this special version of dumplings will receive a carefully prepared special gift.
If you don’t know, you might think they are a couple.
Actually...
Well, actually they are also a couple, just one pair of three.
If He Ye were here too, with her lively and fun-loving personality, she would definitely join in with great interest and add her own creativity to the name.
Next, everyone tasted several creative dumplings that were invented by Sonoko and then improved by Chef Nakajima.
After tasting the food, Hanyu Kusunoki put down his chopsticks, with a thoughtful look on his face, and suggested: "I think we can add something else."
"what?"
The girls looked at him curiously.
Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and explained, "Don't you think that just having dumplings would be a bit too monotonous? Customers may want to have more choices when they come to the store."
"Hmm... a little bit."
Mingmei, the deputy store manager, nodded thoughtfully.
Yuanzi was always impatient and couldn't wait to ask, "Then Nan, what do you think we should do?"
