Upon hearing this, Shi Huang asked the house elf for a set of tableware.

Because he was afraid that Penelope would not be used to the food, he only shared a little bit of his breakfast.

“Try it first, if you like it, I’ll give you more.”

“”Thank you.”

Penelope thanked him and took the plate from Shi Huang to taste them one by one.

The buns were softer and sweeter than the bread she usually ate, and the salty and fresh meat filling made Penelope feel a little novel. The fried dough sticks were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. When you bite them, the aroma of fat fills your mouth, but it doesn’t make you feel too greasy.

There is also rich and mellow soy milk, which Penelope feels is better than coffee.

“Delicious! Is the food from the East so delicious?”Penelope widened her eyes and looked at Shi Huang and asked

“”Hmm.” Shi Huang nodded and said,”Don’t underestimate the food culture of an ancient country with thousands of years of history.”

“There is a story in our country that a foreigner came to my country for a trip and threatened to eat all the food in the country.”

“As a result, three years later, he couldn’t even leave a province.”

“Although this story is exaggerated, it also reflects the profound food culture of my country.”

Penelope said in amazement:”Wow, I must go to your country to see it if I have the chance.”

“Then I welcome you in advance on behalf of my country.”

Shi Huang smiled and brought the topic back to breakfast:”How about some more?”

Penelope was very tempted, but did not agree immediately. Instead, she asked:”Will you not be full if you share it with me?”

“No. As you can see, I still have a lot here, enough for three people.”

“”Then please give me a little more. Not too much, half a bun and a bowl of soy milk will be enough.”

Penelope said that she couldn’t eat too much.

Upon hearing this, Shi Huang gave her a breakfast according to her request.

The two ate and talked, and Penelope asked,”By the way, where did you get this Chinese breakfast?”

Shi Huang replied,”In the Hogwarts kitchen downstairs, I specially asked the house-elf there to make it.”

He didn’t expect that the Chinese breakfast made by Xingzhi, the house-elf, was quite authentic, and he didn’t know how good his cooking skills were for other dishes.

If it’s as authentic as breakfast, then he won’t have to worry about eating Chinese food in the future.

Penelope praised,”It’s amazing. You found the location of the Hogwarts kitchen on the second day of school.””

“I learned this from a Hufflepuff senior when I was in my second year.”

“I didn’t see you yesterday, were you exploring the castle?”

Shi Huang waved his hand and said,”How is that possible? I’m not a Gryffindor, and I don’t have that kind of adventurous spirit.”

“Have you forgotten what I told you? I suddenly received the Hogwarts admission letter when school started the day before yesterday. I rushed into school without any preparation.”

“So after class yesterday, Professor McGonagall took me to Diagon Alley to buy textbooks and magic props for this semester.”

“As for the location of the kitchen, I also happened to find out from the Hufflepuff senior this morning.”

“By the way, speaking of textbooks, I only bought the books I needed for my fifth grade classes when I went to Diagon Alley this time.”

“Would you mind lending me some books from previous school years?”

Penelope said,”Of course I don’t mind. But most of my books are at home, so you may have to wait a few days. I’ll ask my parents to send them to you by owl.”

“No problem.”

Shi Huang made an OK gesture and then thanked him,”Thank you in advance.”

“You’re welcome. Aren’t we friends? There’s no need to be so polite between friends.”

Penelope winked playfully and said,”Of course, I don’t mind if you insist on treating me to more oriental food.”

Compared with Orientals, Westerners’ way of expression and communication are not so implicit. They pay more attention to direct, clear and frank expression.

Just like Penelope at this moment, she would not hide her thoughts in her heart, and would say directly what she wanted.

Shi Huang did not hate this kind of frankness, at least he did not need to bother guessing what the other person was thinking.

“Sure, I’ll cook for you some good food if I get a chance.” Shi Huang promised.

“You can cook too?”

Penelope was a little surprised. She thought Shi Huang would let the house elves do it, but she didn’t expect that he was planning to cook it himself.

“Of course, don’t forget that my uncle does this”

“But haven’t you just met your uncle a few days ago?”

Shi Huang had also talked to Penelope about his uncle at the dinner the day before yesterday, so it was not surprising that she would ask this question.

Shi Huang smiled confidently and said,”I am a genius. A few days are enough for me to learn how to cook.”

This was half true and half false. He really didn’t learn to cook in the few days since he met his uncle.

He learned it long before he crossed over, and his cooking skills were just at the level of ordinary home cooking.

Although it was not bad, it was still a certain distance compared to his uncle’s level of being able to open a restaurant in Chinatown.

But it was true that Shi Huang said he was a genius, especially after his physical fitness improved a hundredfold, he was now able to learn everything quickly. If he really focused on studying cooking, he could also make obvious progress in a short period of time.

Of course, it was impossible to do so, and Shi Huang had not forgotten his primary task of improving his strength.

As for cooking, in his free time, he could go to the Hogwarts kitchen to find the house-elves to learn. If it really didn’t work, Shi Huang could also ask group members to get a few recipes from other worlds.

In short, there are many ways to satisfy Penelope’s desire to taste oriental food.

“Then I’ll wait and see.”

Penelope initially chose to believe Shi Huang’s words. After two times of getting along, she felt that he should not be the kind of person who would brag.

…………

Penelope didn’t have to wait too long, and soon she saw the genius of Shihuang.

After breakfast, the two checked the class schedule and found that they had no classes in the morning, so Penelope offered to teach Shihuang some basic spells.

The two went outside and found an open space by the Black Lake to start teaching spells.

Then Penelope was shocked.

She just explained the spell, wand waving gestures and principles, and demonstrated it herself, and then Shihuang learned it.

And as Shihuang cast spells again and again, his proficiency in spells also increased visibly, and soon surpassed Penelope, the teacher.

After repeating more than a dozen spells in this scene, Penelope finally couldn’t help but ask Shihuang:”Are you really a wizard who is in contact with magic for the first time?”
