Chapter 175 Braised Assorted Dishes



Ling Miao patted the robot next to her; it had a round head and a round face.

A large heart appeared on the electronic display screen.

Welcome to our new team!

Although the voice was mechanical, it sounded childish and was quite cute.

Ling Miao smiled slightly.

"Oh right, I haven't asked you your name yet."

My name is Cecilia.

"What a beautiful name, just like you."

Ling Miao looked at her with admiration, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes.

Cecilia's appearance is as beautiful and captivating as her name.

Unlike the tall stature of modern interstellar people, her size was similar to Ling Miao's. If it weren't for their appearance, Ling Miao would really think that the other person was of the same race as her.

Cecilia has slender bones, a petite figure, a gentle and fair face, and a pair of bright blue eyes that make her look innocent and gentle.

Even his facial features were not as three-dimensional and deep as those of other interstellar people, but rather the same as Ling Miao's.

She possesses a gentle and refined beauty characteristic of people from the East.

Upon hearing the praise, Cecilia blushed, a rare occurrence for her. A faint blush rose from her fair cheeks, like a touch of rouge on a pristine white painting.

Thank you for your compliment.

"You're welcome. Please eat your food. There's more food here."

She urged the other person to eat.

With a major weight lifted from my mind, I felt much more relaxed.

Cecilia and her husband sat down with Perodua, looking at the shumai on the plate in front of them with curiosity in their eyes.

Perodua's mouth was stuffed full, but he still managed to grab one in each hand and hand them to his parents.

"It's...delicious."

Seeing her son eating with such happiness on his face, Cecilia felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welled up with tears, but she quickly hid them away.

She took the food from the child and ate it.

I had expected the dough to be soft, but it turned out to be surprisingly chewy and delicious.

The dough is not thick, but as thin as a cicada's wing, and the filling inside is stained with a darker brown than maltose.

The sticky glutinous rice becomes even more clump-like after being steamed at high temperatures. When you bite into it, you can enjoy the chewy and soft texture while also getting a taste of the rich filling inside.

The diced mushrooms and tender, steamed meat were easily detected by a discerning palate.

The glutinous rice absorbs the aroma of meat and rich mushrooms, making it even more flavorful.

It's so delicious!

Cecilia ate slowly, chewing each bite carefully, almost swallowing the last mouthful before reluctantly opening her eyes.

I've never eaten anything so delicious before.

In the past, when her husband was well-off, he would often take them out to restaurants for a treat.

But even the most delicious food in a restaurant can't compare to this shumai.

With its rich and chewy texture and soft, springy dough, each bite releases a burst of flavors that greatly satisfy the taste buds.

It was absolutely delicious.

Not only Cecilia was amazed, but even Commons, who never paid much attention to food, thought it was delicious.

Before I knew it, only four shumai remained on the plate.

Commons immediately stopped what he was doing and moved the plate to his son and wife.

"You guys eat, I'm full."

That sounds like a lie.

Cecilia's gentle eyes widened, and she forcefully picked up a shumai and stuffed it into her husband's mouth.

"I don't know you yet."

"If you don't eat, I won't eat either."

Seeing his parents being so considerate, the little boy took out a tissue and wiped his mouth and hands.

"I'm stuffed."

Afraid that his parents wouldn't believe him, he stretched out his clean little hand and patted his belly.

It is indeed round and bulging.

Cecilia, still not reassured, reached out and touched his abdomen, which was now slightly bulging from being stretched.

Are you really full?

She frowned as she looked at her son.

She was afraid that her son would deliberately swell up his belly for her and her husband's sake.

Ling Miao promptly brought out two plates of shumai.

"Don't worry, we provide food and lodging here, and you'll be well-fed."

"You can eat as much as you want."

Cecilia: "Thank you."

"You're welcome, there's more in the kitchen."

As we spoke, guests began to walk in from outside the restaurant.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, they smelled the aroma filling the air. They didn't care about the three strangers and greeted Ling Miao with practiced ease.

"What would the boss like to eat?"

"So it's shumai."

The other person shifted their gaze to the large electronic screen in front of them, and without showing any curiosity upon hearing the unfamiliar term, readily placed their order.

"Give me two baskets!"

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

It wasn't just him.

The customers who followed them in ordered multiple baskets of food at once.

I was afraid I wouldn't be able to catch up.

A guest entered the room.

Comens stood up to go into the kitchen to help, and even Cecilia wiped her mouth and stood up.

Ling Miao quickly stopped them.

"Your work will begin at noon today."

"Rest well now and tidy up your things."

Ling Miao led them to a room in the backyard.

The system has been upgraded five times, and the rooms, courtyard, and dining room have all been expanded several times over, making Ling Miao and her companion's place seem rather empty.

Now that the Commons family has moved in, the place finally doesn't feel so empty anymore.

After settling the other party into the room, she began preparing the dishes for today's live broadcast.

To avoid appearing lazy, she deliberately avoided the breakfast that was served this morning.

Seeing that Ling Miao had started live-streaming her cooking, Zheng Wenrun also came over.

What are you planning to do today?

"We're adding one vegetarian dish and one meat dish."

The other person rested their chin on their hand and quickly made a decision.

"I've been cooking meat all day, it's time to change things up."

Zheng Wenrun paused, wanting to tell her...

Meat is the best! Bland, tasteless vegetables are just not tasty at all!

But he opened his mouth and then hesitated to say it.

It would be so embarrassing if people knew he was a picky eater.

Ling Miao was unaware of Zheng Wenrun's inner thoughts. She selected the ingredients for the first vegetarian dish she was going to make and then started a live stream.

"Hello everyone, the first dish I'm going to make today is braised mixed vegetables."

As usual, she introduced the ingredients at hand and then prepared to begin.

Lu Ling, who was watching the live stream intently, suddenly perked up.

These days, thanks to the food at Youwei Restaurant, her complexion has improved a lot, and she is no longer as pale and thin as she was at the beginning.

Life slowly returned to his eyes, and his eyes lit up as he looked at the vegetarian dishes Ling Miao was introducing.

Although she eats both meat and vegetables, her body still mainly needs to be nourished, so the doctor advised her to focus on a light and vegetarian diet.

Because every dish in the restaurant was delicious, even though she could only eat a little bit at each meal.

However, if this happens too often, it will inevitably bring consequences.

She has a fever; her teeth are now red and swollen, showing signs of inflammation.

This new light vegetarian dish is perfect for cooling down the body.
