"Nina, these sweet potatoes are all washed. We left some unwashed and stored them separately."
Kith placed the cleaned sweet potatoes in front of her.
"Alright, I'll teach you how to roast them."
Nina set some aside for roasting and others for steaming and boiling.
Ridan and the others stir-fried a few more dishes, and soon dinner was ready.
"Lady Nina, how do we eat this chestnut?" Ridan asked, holding up a roasted one.
"Just peel off the outer shell."
Nina demonstrated first, cracking one open with practiced ease.
The three little ones stared eagerly, eyes full of longing. The egg babies could only wobble nearby, inhaling the delicious aroma.
Nina mashed a small portion of chestnut into paste and prepared to feed them.
Kith gently took the bowl from her. "You eat first. I'll handle it."
"Alright—but just a little taste. Not too much," Nina reminded him, handing over the bowl. "You can also mash some sweet potato and let them try a bit."
"Understood."
