In the Soul Realm, she didn’t feel anything even if she didn’t eat for several years. But now, if she doesn’t eat the food cooked by Xiaoxian for a day, Zi Gu feels like something is missing, and her heart is so empty.
Xue Huan had informed Zi Gu and the others in advance that they probably wouldn't be coming last night. Hearing this, she laughed and said, "Okay, I'll go make something delicious for our skinny and hungry Sister Zi Gu."
Xue Huan was abducted back to her cave by Zi Gu. The others were envious and jealous, so they had no choice but to gather in her cave.
"How about I make dumplings for you today?"
"Dumplings?" Zi Gu didn't know what kind of delicacy this was.
After these days of contact, Xue Huan has learned that the world where Zi Gu lives is probably similar to the ancient world where gods, immortals, demons, and monsters all exist. There are many talented people and immortals everywhere. The level of the world is much higher than the world where Xue Huan lives.
However, in the prehistoric world, humans were still a vulnerable group, and civilization had not yet developed. Humans lived in settlements, and there were few fixed cities and countries. People mostly relied on hunting and gathering to obtain food, and the only ways to cook food were simple and primitive methods such as roasting, boiling, and stewing.
This also explains why Zi Gu is a novice in cooking, because in the world she lives in, the skill of cooking has not been developed at all.
If the degree of development of culinary skills is quantified, then the modern world where Xue Huan originally lived reached 90%, the ancient world in this life was 50%, and Zi Gu's world was probably only 5%.
There is still a long way to go to achieve the goal of "never tired of fine food and never tired of delicate meat".
The worlds of Shen Baqian, Shi Tian, and Chen Yuan, although their development focuses are different, some are about cultivating immortals, some are about fantasy, and some are about Western high magic, but their strength levels are all very high.
On the contrary, the living standards of ordinary people are not very high.
When people are not even well fed and warmed, they will think about sex. How can they think about how to develop the delicious taste of food when they are not even well fed and warmed?
The only exception is the world where Wuhuan lives - a world where technology and cultivation are combined. The civilization of cultivation has spread to tens of millions of households, and even ordinary people can use the products produced by the combination of cultivation and technology, making life much more convenient.
Of course, no matter which world you are in, strength is respected.
However, Wuhuan was an autistic monk who rarely even left the house. The temple took care of his food and daily life, so he didn't need to do anything himself.
This is why the cooking skills of these big guys are very novice.
Seeing in the group that Xue Huan was going to make a kind of food they had never heard of, Shi Tian and the others rushed over, fearing that they would miss out if they were a step late.
They had stored the ingredients in advance, but they were still missing the most crucial thing - flour.
This is when the mall in the soul card comes in handy.
The goods in the mall are varied and all are brought in by players from the Soul Realm.
There are also farming players in Soul World who don’t like fighting and killing, but prefer farming, so Xue Huan found flour easily.
She was about to place an order when Zi Gu stopped her, "Wait, let me do it."
Xiaoxian is responsible for cooking, so why should she spend money to buy ingredients? She has such a small appetite and can't eat much.
Zi Gu bought several hundred kilograms of flour in one go.
Xue Huan opened her mouth but didn't stop in the end. Thinking of the big guys' appetites that were as terrifying as their strength, she felt that these hundreds of kilograms might not be enough.
After placing an order and paying, the product will appear directly in the storage room of the buyer's soul card and can be taken out directly.
Xue Huan first demonstrated the process of kneading dough to a few people.
Shi Tian: "It's easy, just leave the kneading of the dough to me."
Kneading dough may seem simple, but it is a technical job. The timing of adding water and the amount of water to add are very challenging and it is not just about having great strength.
Xue Huan stood by and gave instructions for a while, and Shi Tian finally stopped being so flustered.
Next, Xue Huan assigned the tasks of processing ingredients, rolling noodles, cutting dumpling wrappers, chopping stuffing, and making dumplings.
She just needs to coordinate and save the situation.
Among them, Shen Baqian was assigned the task of making dumplings. Thanks to the tentacles on his body, he had more than one pair of hands, and he worked quickly and flexibly, doing the work of two or three people.
The dumplings look very good.
After wrapping some dumplings, Xue Huan put them in the pot to cook. The early preparation work for eating dumplings is time-consuming, but it only takes about ten minutes to cook.
She scooped up the dumplings, plated them, and brought them to the table. In front of each person was a condiment dish containing chili sauce, vinegar, and minced garlic, adjusted to individual tastes. Those who could handle spicy food would add more, while those who couldn't handle spicy food or garlic, like Wu Huan, would only use vinegar.
The dumplings only smelled of the hot aroma of noodles, not as overpowering as hot pot or barbecue. A few people were a little disappointed. After working for so long, the dumplings didn't look that good.
Of course, when they actually eat it, they don’t think so anymore.
Oh my goodness! So delicious!
Xue Huan picked up a dumpling, blew on it, dipped it in chili sauce, and put the whole thing into her mouth.
She'd been eating a lot of dumplings the past couple of days and was getting a little tired of them, so she just decided to give them a try. However, the dumplings made with Soul Realm ingredients were surprisingly more delicious than those from outside, and she devoured several without realizing it.
No, no, she had to control herself, otherwise she would be the one who would feel uncomfortable if she ate too much.
A large plate of dumplings was gone in just a short while.
After tasting the delicious dumplings, Zi Gu and the others were extremely motivated to work. Some were kneading the dough, some were rolling the dough, and some were making dumplings. They were all working at a very fast speed, which was very exciting.
That night, several big guys were dominated by a small food called "dumplings", but they felt very happy.
*
On the first day of the New Year, relatives and friends greet each other and people return to their parents’ home on the second day.
Xue's mother has no maternal home, or it cannot be said that she has no maternal home, but even if she does have one, it is almost the same as not having it. She has not been back for many years and has basically cut off all ties with her original family.
In the past, when Xue Huan saw her friends returning to their maternal grandparents' home with their parents, she would envy them because she was the only one who didn't have a maternal grandparents' home to go to and had to play alone at home. Some villagers would tease her about this and ask her with a smile, "Huani'er, do you want to go with us?"
Xue's mother always felt sorry for her child, but Xue Huan was a sensible child and would comfort her in return. In the end, Xue Huan no longer cared about this matter. She only had her father and mother, so why did she need her in-laws?
Because she knew from her friends that not all in-laws welcomed their married daughters back home. Most of them wanted to take the opportunity to get benefits from their daughters. If not, the in-laws might say something unpleasant.
It’s better not to have such an outsider.
Over the years, the Xue family has become accustomed to staying at home alone on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
It’s also nice not to visit relatives. I can just sit at home, warm myself by the fire, chat, play ball, and have a relaxing and enjoyable time.
