Plot
In an attempt to prove herself as a capable wife, Miia attempts to cook for the household. Miia diverges into a lewd daydream, staring blankly when she falls down, burning her hands from her cooking in the process.

Miia lays in her bed, sobbing as she looks at her now-bandaged hands, Kimihito speaks through the door to comfort her. Kimihito decides to leave her be, but as he leaves he steps on something. He inspects the item he stepped on when Miia suddenly panics and slams the door off the hinges, hitting Kimihito in the process. With Miia out of her room, Kimihito notices that she is shedding which causes Miia to blush and tear up in shame.

Miia explains that she does not want to be seen while she is shedding even though she cannot shed with her bandages. Kimihito tries to calm her down by reminding her that he has already seen her naked, Miia explains that for Lamia shedding is worse than being seen naked. Miia continues to sulk as she describes how her difficulty with shedding, cooking, cleaning, and laundry makes her feel unworthy of being his wife. Kimihito identifies that her shedding is only "partial shedding" and he knows this because Ms. Smith had advised him to study snake biology. Kimihito talks Miia into letting him help her by telling her she can help him "shed" whenever he gets sunburned.

Kimihito prepares humidifiers and dampens towels in hot water to place over Miia's tail for the shedding process. Miia gives another blank stare, admitting that she is still embarrassed. Kimihito easily pulls off her shed skin but stops when he notices that this arouses her. He mentally remarks that this makes it harder for him to stay calm and continues to pull skin. The next piece of shed skin leaves them both gasping. Miia screams suddenly and explains that he has reached the tip of her tail. Kimihito encourages her to stay calm so he can get the rest and continues pulling off skin. Miia wraps her tail around his neck to stop him, she explains that she cannot take much more stimulation. Kimihito encourages her again and continues.

Miia is left gasping and drooling as Kimihito removes the skin from the tip of her tail. Kimihito remarks that since that part is over, her front side should be easier, however, Miia wraps her tail around his eyes so he cannot look at her as she takes off her panties. Kimihito suggests that he should leave the rest to peel off by herself, Miia explains the skin left around her crotch would get itchy if he left it. Miia covers her crotch as Kimihito works around his hand, but when he touches near her hand she moves her hand as she throws her head back in a screaming moan. As she recovers she tells Kimihito that they are almost finished. Kimihito, still blinded by Miia's tail, repeats that she is covering herself with her hand so he could reach straight to the last piece of skin. Because of this misunderstanding Kimihito accidentally inserts his finger inside her vulva. Miia twists Kimihito's head in response.

Miia reheats the food she was cooking from before and serves it to Kimihito to apologise for hurting him. He eats all of Miia's cooking, believing that it was some sort of exotic Lamia food, however, Centorea and Papi arrive to warn him not to eat Miia's food. Kimihito finds out that she was actually trying to cook human food and had the other homestays taste test it for her. Kimihito asks if she followed the recipes, she replies that she cooked everything by memory from watching him so he forces Miia to start studying cook books before she continues cooking for the household.

Key Events

 * Miia wants to learn how to become a better housewife.
 * Miia's room is shown.
 * Lamia are shown to shed their skin at certain points in their life. Apparently, it's more embarrasing than being seen naked.
 * It's revealed Miia is an absolutely horrible cook, as she has accidentally incapacitated both Papi and Centorea for a whole chapter by giving them food poisoning.

Trivia

 * In the anime Mero and Suu are in this chapter portion due to it taken place after their introductions despite taken place before their introductions in the manga.
 * In the anime, Suu also shows sign of being poisoned by Miia's food, but this was a continuity error as is stated from the beginning of the manga series that Suu, as a Slime, is completely immune to the ill effects of Miia's cooking.
 * Several of the items Miia has "cooked" (curry, steak, pork miso soup) are made of or contain meat, which a Centaur, being a herbivore, cannot eat. In this respect, it is also possible that Centorea was doing badly because she ate meat, although Okayado probably didn't specifically consider this at the time, since it was only mentioned for the first time later in Chapter 21 that Centaurs are purely herbivores.
