Chapter 14 Delicious Chicken Soup

Chapter 14 Delicious Chicken Soup

"Uncle Che, how about you try this chicken soup, especially the mushrooms and bamboo shoots. They have absorbed the fresh aroma of the chicken soup and are absolutely delicious." Tu Rongrong picked up a piece of mushroom and handed it to Tu Che's mouth to feed him.

The audience in the live broadcast room saw that the host, who was unwilling to give them permission no matter what they said, picked up mushrooms and bamboo shoots and passed them to other people's mouths. They couldn't help but open their mouths and exclaimed "ah", as if the host was going to pass these fragrant mushrooms to their mouths.

Tu Che couldn't help laughing when he saw Tu Rongrong's appearance. He opened his mouth and put the mushroom into his mouth, and then his eyes couldn't help but light up.

"This is delicious." Tu Che said with sparkling eyes, then he placed the chicken soup in front of Tu Yuanyuan, which he had blown until it was only slightly warm, and said, "Yuanyuan, try it too. Isn't it delicious?"

"Okay." Tu Yuanyuan was also very excited. She grabbed the handle of the spoon with her chubby hands, scooped a spoonful of soup into her mouth, and drank it with a slurp.

"Hmm, delicious." Tu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up. She took a sip of soup and scooped up a piece of mushroom to eat. Her mouth was bulging with food, and she looked very happy.

"If it tastes good, eat more. Uncle Che, you should eat more too." Tu Rongrong said with a smile, and then she started eating by herself.

She had been in the interstellar space for several days, and she hadn't eaten for a while before she traveled through time, so this was the first time she had eaten delicious food in a long time.

"Hmm..." Tu Rongrong scooped a spoonful of chicken soup, blew on it, and then leaned over to drink the soup. When the chicken soup flowed into her mouth and stimulated her taste buds, the delicious feeling instantly reached her brain.

Tu Rongrong had to admit that the pheasants from Aquamarine Star looked really good, and the chicken soup was really delicious, especially after stewing it with mushrooms and bamboo shoots. The taste was even more irresistible.

Tu Rongrong tried the chicken, which was very fresh and tender. It was not overcooked even after being stewed for nearly an hour, and it tasted really good. The mushrooms were already very fresh, and after absorbing the flavor of the chicken and bamboo shoots, they tasted even better.

Tu Rongrong was eating so much that she couldn't even lift her head, while Tu Che and Xiao Yuanyuan didn't say much and just kept eating.

Live broadcast room.

[Ahhhhh why am I so jealous seeing them eating so happily? ]

[Host, look at us, look at us, let us also taste the flavor of this chicken soup, Host! ]

[Anchor, look at us, anchor! ]

[What should I do? Seeing the host and her family enjoying their meal so much, I'm really jealous.]

[I really want to eat it, host, can you give me a taste? ]

[Host, please grant us permission, Qiuqiu. Let us have a taste!]

[What should I do? I can see it but I can't touch it or eat it. I feel really pitiful.]

[Anchor, please have some mercy on us, anchor. Please grant us some permissions.]

[Ahhh, I'm going to file a complaint against this anchor. She's abusing us viewers. Aa ...

【Wow, wow, I want to eat it too.】

[Host, are you still short of help? I know how to make machines. Host, are you still short of help? ]

[Anchor, please look at me, anchor. Please grant me the permissions.]

The more than a thousand viewers in the live broadcast room rioted because the host had enabled the sense of smell so they could all smell the very fragrant chicken soup. However, the host did not have the sense of touch and taste enabled so they could not taste it at all.

Live broadcasts in the interstellar era allow viewers to experience what the host is experiencing in an immersive way. That is to say, after all permissions are opened, the audience can have the same five senses as the host.

However, the visual, auditory and olfactory permissions in Tu Rongrong's live broadcast room are all open, but the tactile and taste permissions are not open, so the audience cannot touch anything in the live broadcast, nor can they eat the delicious food made by the host.

They could only watch and smell the aroma of the pheasant mushroom soup, but they couldn't eat it at all.

Tu Rongrong ignored the cries of the audience in the live broadcast room. After her sister finished a bowl of chicken soup and the mushrooms and bamboo shoots in the bowl, she stopped beating her and just gave her chicken wings to chew on.

The rest were eaten by Tu Rongrong and Tu Che together, of course most of them were eaten by Tu Che. After all, Tu Che is a robot, he also has a stomach, and the difference between his stomach and that of a human is that his stomach can convert food into energy.

Tu Che could eat as much as he wanted, so when Tu Rongrong was about 60% full, she gave all the remaining chicken soup to Tu Che. Then she put down the bowl and went to the extinguished stove to dig out the hardened mud ball.

"What is this?" Tu Che asked puzzledly as he looked at the mud block that Tu Rongrong dug out from the charcoal pile. Tu Che did not notice it when Tu Rongrong wrapped up the beggar chicken just now. At that time, he was still dealing with other pheasants.

"This is beggar's chicken," Tu Rongrong said with a smile. "Legend has it that a long time ago there was a beggar who, while begging for food, ended up in a village in Changshu County, China. He stumbled upon a chicken, and after killing it, he discovered he had neither meat nor seasoning. So he killed the chicken, removed its internal organs, and smeared the feathers with yellow mud and firewood. He then roasted the coated chicken over a fire. When the mud dried and the chicken was cooked, he peeled off the mud shell, and the feathers fell off along with it, revealing the chicken's meat."

"This is a story passed down from ancient Earth, but the origins of the beggar's chicken are actually untraceable," Tu Rongrong said with a smile. "Later, people improved the cooking method of beggar's chicken. Instead of wrapping it in yellow mud without plucking the feathers, they cleaned the chicken and wrapped it in lotus leaves. However, we don't have lotus leaves here, so I used bamboo leaves instead."

"The beggar's chicken is bright red in color, fragrant, crispy and tender, and has a unique flavor," Tu Rongrong continued. "I also stuffed some mushrooms and bamboo shoots into the chicken's belly, which makes it even more delicious."

"Uncle Che, would you like to try it?" Tu Rongrong asked with a smile.

"Yes." Before Tu Che could say anything, Tu Yuanyuan next to him excitedly grabbed her sister's clothes and said.

The smile on Tu Rongrong's face froze. She looked down at her sister grabbing her clothes with her chubby, greasy hands, and couldn't help revealing a desperate expression.

"Yuanyuan, don't grab my clothes with such oily hands. They are difficult to wash." Tu Rongrong looked desperate. Although she could ask Tu Che to help wash her clothes, she still felt uncomfortable seeing her clothes dirty.

Seeing her sister suddenly lose her temper, Tu Yuanyuan couldn't help but let out a guilty laugh, "Hehe", trying to get away with it.

The story behind beggar's chicken comes from Baidu Encyclopedia.
