Chapter 165 Italian Bolognese Pasta: China Limited Edition



For the next two days, they would go out to set up a stall, but instead of going in the afternoon, they would set off early in the morning and not return until noon.

Although there weren't many customers, they encountered a particularly generous customer who bought three palettes of eyeshadow and five lipsticks with 100 kilograms of rice. When they brought these items home, Cheng's parents were shocked and suspected they had committed robbery.

After Xiao Feiran's explanation, the two parents' shock only increased. In this day and age, there are still people who waste so much money to buy these non-essential items.

Cheng Ye, who was moving rice, was also puzzled. He recalled the five lipsticks he had just sold. "I don't understand either. She bought five identical lipsticks. Does she love them that much?"

Cheng Zhi: "...Dude, are you colorblind? They're clearly different."

Are they different? Cheng Ye began to doubt his eyes. But he quickly stopped doubting himself. There are so many lipstick colors for girls, it's normal that he can't tell them apart. It doesn't mean he's blind.

On the morning of the third day, the two of them got up early, wanting to get a good spot as soon as possible. But when they drew back the curtains, the outside world was a vast expanse of white.

Having already seen the aurora borealis, a snowfall wouldn't amaze them anymore. They yawned, pulled the curtains back, and asked, "So? Shall we go again today?"

Xiao Feiran reached out and picked up her phone, seeing the notes filled with her achievements. "Let's not go. There are fewer people on a snowy day anyway. We won't sell anything, and we don't want to catch a cold."

The two of them were of the same mind, so they covered themselves with the blankets and went back to sleep.

An hour or two later, they both woke up. Cheng Zhi went out to the living room and found that her parents and Cheng Ye were still asleep.

Everyone was still asleep, and they were quite bored. Since they hadn't been to the space for the past two days, they locked the door and slipped into the space.

The living room and dining room were still piled with the supplies the two of them had brought back over the past few days. Xiao Feiran looked at the pile of things and said, "It's not good to keep them here. Let's find a room to put them in."

Will they move it themselves? Of course not.

Now that Xiao Zhi is in the space, he takes care of most things. Xiao Feiran called out to Xiao Zhi, who was feeding the chickens, and told him to remember to put all the things back in the room when he had time.

The robot had no right to refuse, so it readily agreed. It circled the supplies twice and said, "Master has been making a lot of progress lately. Master Yiyi has also asked me to move things these past two days."

Upon hearing this from Xiao Zhi, Cheng Zhi and Xiao Feiran exchanged a glance. Could it be that Yi Yi also went out to buy things?

They searched the entire space but couldn't find Huang Yiyi's notebook. They couldn't see any changes in the items listed on the spreadsheet, so they weren't sure if Huang Yiyi had really gone out to buy things. They could only wait until evening to find out what she had been up to.

They weren't completely idle during their visit to the space. Seeing that there were too many potatoes piled up in the kitchen recently, they washed a few and prepared to make some fries and potato pancakes.

Looking at the golden, crispy potato pancakes, Cheng Zhi's tears welled up in her eyes, and she kept wanting to reach out and grab one.

Xiao Feiran was speechless when he saw her like this. "Anyone who didn't know better would think you haven't eaten for days. It can't be that bad."

"How can these be the same? Rice is rice, noodles are noodles, and they have absolutely nothing to do with potato pancakes. I'm not hungry, I'm just craving them." Cheng Zhi said this with a straight face and it made perfect sense.

Even so, Xiao Feiran did not agree to let her take it. "Then you have to wait until it cools down a bit. I just took it out of the oil."

With no other option, Cheng Zhi couldn't eat, so she could only do other things to distract herself. She looked at the spaghetti she had exchanged for that day and prepared to make breakfast.

An adult wouldn't make noodles too badly if they performed normally, so Xiao Feiran let her make breakfast.

When she finished frying the fries and hash browns, she looked back and saw that Cheng Zhi had already started plating them. At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with them, but upon closer inspection, it was quite something.

Xiao Feiran widened her eyes and walked to Cheng Zhi's side. "Chef Cheng, if I may ask, what kind of sauce do you put on this spaghetti?"

Cheng Zhi chuckled twice and waved the Lao Gan Ma chili sauce in her hand. "This is a modified version of Italian Bolognese. This sauce... no, this gravy, I put everyone's favorite Lao Gan Ma chili sauce and the spicy beef sauce that Zheng Wan made before. I guarantee it will be incredibly delicious!"

Xiao Feiran: "..." Stop hiding it! I heard the fried sauce!

Although Cheng Zhi's noodles had absolutely nothing to do with Italian food, they still looked quite appetizing, especially since she thoughtfully included a poached egg for everyone. If you didn't know it was Italian pasta, it would be a perfect homemade version of Zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste).

Once the food was ready, they prepared to take it out and then wake their parents up for dinner.

Xiao Feiran went to call her parents, while Cheng Zhi went to call her dear younger brother. She knocked twice to make sure Cheng Ye heard her, then pushed the door open and pounced on him, exclaiming, "Dear little brother, wake up! I made you spaghetti bolognese!"

Cheng Ye, who liked to sleep with his head covered, was almost crushed to death by his sister. He struggled to reach out, trying to break free. "Sis, could you move aside? If you don't leave, I'm leaving..."

The child could talk, so Cheng Zhi quickly got up, awkwardly patted his head, and went out.

Cheng Ye, who was still lying on the bed, finally caught his breath. He quickly got up to wash up and wanted to see the spaghetti bolognese that Cheng Zhi had made.

Gently awakened, Cheng's parents looked at the noodles with soybean paste in front of them with quite an appetite, especially Cheng's mother, who even took Xiao Feiran's hand and said, "Oh, Feiran, how did you know I wanted to eat noodles?"

Cheng Zhi stuck her face out, wedging it between the loving mother and daughter. "I made the mother, you're praising the wrong person!"

Upon hearing that it was Cheng Zhi who did it, Cheng's mother touched Cheng Zhi's face with her other hand to express her gratitude, feeling embarrassed.

Cheng's father, who was sitting next to him, had already started eating and thought the taste was pretty good. The noodles were smooth and chewy, the sauce was spicy and fragrant, and the crispy hash browns were a surprisingly good match for the two different textures and flavors.

Cheng Ye, sitting on the other side of the table, was dumbfounded. He knew something was wrong when he saw it, and after taking a bite, he felt even more uneasy. He picked up a bean from the Lao Gan Ma chili sauce and asked, "Are you sure you've made spaghetti bolognese? I can definitely taste the Lao Gan Ma flavor!"

Cheng Zhi smiled and replied, "Honey, I made a China-exclusive version of Italian bolognese, limited time and quantity, take it or leave it~"

Cheng Ye: "..." This is just outrageous.
