Anime Crossover: Daily Points Start with Slice-of-Life Anime

The sky was vast and open, with no tall buildings obstructing the view. Although there was some fog, one could still feel the exhilaration of an unobstructed view.

Occasionally, a few long, drawn-out rooster crows, and occasionally, a few chirps of insects rise and fall. The quiet morning doesn't seem so quiet after all. Every life is busy following its instincts in the ordinary morning.

After walking for four or five minutes, the group, led by Chitanda Eru, arrived at a pavilion with a waterproof cloth supported by bamboo, providing shelter from the rain.

That's right, it can only block rain, not wind.

Judging from the appearance, this simple pavilion was probably temporarily erected in the last two days when there was a need. Under the pavilion were many tables, and the food was neatly piled up to one side. There were dedicated staff to help the workers who came to eat to get their meals.

Just like a school cafeteria.

"It looks like there's meat in it..."

Upon smelling the aroma of meat, Goto Ichiri couldn't help but let out a somewhat憨厚 (honest and simple) chuckle.

Chitanda Eru smiled when she heard this.

"It's all physical labor here, so every meal has to include meat. This morning it seems to be beef meatballs, and there's also rice and bread to choose from."

"The food is pretty good!"

Aoyama Nanami's eyes lit up immediately.

Living in dire poverty, she usually eats very simple meals, except for occasional part-time jobs where she can have some meals at work.

For her, a place where she could eat meat as much as she wanted was paradise.

Of course, this also applies to Wu Qing.

His food budget has been getting tighter lately, and he hasn't been able to eat high-protein foods to his heart's content for a long time.

It turns out that working part-time at Chitanda Eru's house is a great choice. Not only is the pay generous, but the food is also excellent, and you can even earn more for more work.

"Just go over there and get a bowl to line up."

Chitanda Eru led the group to a bamboo basket filled with disposable bowls and chopsticks.

Everyone took a set of tableware and then lined up behind only two people. Perhaps because they arrived a little late, there weren't many people there, and the other workers must have already eaten.

Are these all your friends?

When it was Chitanda Eru's turn, the Chitanda family employee in charge of serving the food looked at Chitanda Eru and asked her a question.

Anyone with eyes can see that.

Chitanda Eru is the first choice. She is very close to those people, and their relationship seems good. Secondly, these people are all about the same age as Chitanda Eru.

This is clearly a friend of a peer who was invited from school to work part-time.

"Um, yes."

Chitanda Eru smiled and nodded.

"Since he is your friend, Miss, I can't be negligent, hahaha!"

The female employee, holding a spoon, filled large portions of food for Chitanda Eru and the others. (Search 485[057.;)

Especially when it's foggy and clear.

Seeing that Wu Qing had a firm physique and could eat a lot, the female employee prepared a whole bowl of meat for him.

Sitting at the table with Chitanda Eru and the other girls, Kiriharu looked at the meat in her bowl and thought that this part-time job was definitely the right decision.

Thanks to Chitanda Eru, he received special treatment here. He could sleep directly in Chitanda Eru's room instead of squeezing in with the ordinary workers, and he could even eat more meat at meals. It really lived up to the old saying.

Home by their parents, go out to rely on friends.

The girls chatted and laughed as they ate their breakfast in small bites. According to Chitanda Eru, their work hours started in half an hour.

Therefore, there is still plenty of time.

Wu Qing and the three girls had nothing to talk about.

He just silently ate his meal with his head down. While Aoyama Nanami and the others had only taken a few bites, he had already quickly finished a full bowl of rice and a pile of meat.

"Haha, you mean Inoue-sensei, the geography teacher? She teaches our class too. She's really funny, she loves telling jokes..."

"Oh, is that so?"

Aoyama Nanami and Chitanda Eru chatted happily; both had rather lively personalities...

Goto Ichiri remained completely silent, holding her bowl with a look of utter despair, shoveling rice into her mouth one mouthful at a time.

Even in this kind of conversation, she can't get a word in edgewise; she truly lives up to her reputation as a lonely soul.

When Wu Qing stood up, several girls noticed the commotion at the same time, and Aoyama Nanami looked at Wu Qing with a puzzled expression.

"Has Wu Qing finished eating?"

"No, I want to get some more."

Wu Qing got up and went straight to the food area. In front of the female employee who was already resting and squatting by the table playing on her phone, she filled herself a large bowl with rice and meat.

"..."

The female employee looked at Wu Qing in surprise, then suddenly stood up and anxiously tried to dissuade her.

"Um, there's someone behind us who hasn't had their meal yet, would you mind...?"

However, as soon as she got up, Wu Qing poured the last piece of meat into the bowl.

Upon hearing what the female employee said, Wu Qing was stunned. "Wait, there are still people who haven't come to eat?" He was somewhat bewildered.

He and Chitanda Eru and the others arrived quite late, thinking they were the last group, and since they were also hungry, they ate everything they could.

I can't believe there are still people who haven't come...

Just as the atmosphere became somewhat awkward, a deep, resonant voice came from not far away.

"Manatsu, what's wrong?"

"Master, you are here."

The female employee immediately turned her head and bowed.

Wu Qing also saw who the newcomer was.

Chitanda Natsuya is Chitanda Eru's father (1.6) and the head of the Chitanda family.

"What happened?"

Chitanda Natsuya could hear the female employee's anxious voice from a distance, but she didn't know what had happened.

The female employee immediately began to explain.

Half a minute later, Chitanda Natsuya, having already understood what was going on, burst into laughter.

"Most young people have normal appetites. He has to work later, so let him eat his fill."

After saying that, Chitanda Natsu also looked at the somewhat bewildered Kirisho, "Young man, please eat as much as you like. If you're not full, just tell me, or you can tell Eru. My Chitanda family can't let our guests who come to help go hungry."

"Sorry, I have a huge appetite."

Wu Qing felt a little apologetic.

Through the conversation between the female employee and Chitanda Natsuya, it was learned that the female employee wanted to save some meat for Chitanda Natsuya, who had not yet eaten.

After all, Natsumi is the head of the Chitanda family.

But the mist and sunshine were all taken away by it...

Chapter 141: Time to Eat and Get to Work!

“It’s alright. You’re young and have plenty of energy, so it’s normal for you to eat a lot. I wish everyone here could eat as much as you. The Chitanda family is mostly made up of elderly people now, and we are in dire need of capable young people.”

Chitanda Natsuya looked at Kiriharu's figure and handsome appearance with eyes full of affection.

Despite being a large agricultural family, the Chitanda family in this generation is surprisingly lacking in shrewd and capable men, which has always been a headache for him.

Therefore, he liked Wu Qing very much.

Wu Qing not only has a very healthy physique, but she was also quite articulate while drinking last night. She is not a vulgar person who is all looks and no brains.

Damn it, why wasn't such an outstanding man born into the Chitanda family?

Although his daughter, Chitanda Eru, was a very remarkable girl—not only elegant in appearance but also intelligent—what agriculture needed most was a capable man...

After saying that, Chitanda Natsu also looked at the female employee behind her, "Have the kitchen make extra food for lunch, we must make sure everyone is well-fed!"

"understand!"

The female employee nodded immediately.

Ensuring that Kiriharu, the worker, is well-fed is something that the Chitanda family, the employers, should do.

We went through this little incident.

Kiriharu stood there and chatted with Chitanda Natsuya for a couple of minutes before going back to eat.

Even after he had finished all the meat that was supposed to be left for Chitanda Natsuya, he still seemed unsatisfied and went to get a lot more bread.

Poor Chitanda Natsuya.

Not only is there no meat to eat, but...

The last ten or so loaves of bread were gone too.

But he wasn't angry.

On the contrary, the more I look at Wu Qing, the more I like her.

In rural areas, workers who can eat are often more efficient than those who cannot.

This is almost like a stereotype.

When women in rural areas chat, they often boast about how much their men can eat, implying how capable and strong they are at work.

Chitanda Natsu is not a woman.

But he also believes that the more you can eat, the more capable you are.

Time passed little by little.

After eating two large bowls of rice, two large bowls of meat, and more than a dozen pieces of bread, Wu Qing finally felt three or four times full.

That's right, his appetite has become ridiculously large now.

Feeling three or four layers full only means you're not very hungry, but it's definitely not the optimal state.
