Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Bai Wutong was young, she had watched her grandmother knit countless times. With a flip of her hands, she easily knitted a piece of instant noodles.
So this was how the chopsticks in her hand were used. Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched her.
What was going on? They had to learn how to weave just to eat noodles?
The others were still in a daze.
Chu Tianbao learnt it at a glance. He followed immediately after Bai Wutong finished knitting.
Bai Wutong reminded the rest, “I’ve already taught you the first time!’
Cui Muzhi immediately panicked. The instant noodles that she knitted looked so complicated, and he could not understand the blueprint. He hurriedly focused himself and stared at the instant noodles that he was learning to knit.
During the second time, everyone watched attentively.
Sheng Huaixuan, Cui Lingyi, Qingfeng, and Lan Jingbai all learnt how to do it.
Cui Muzhi did not catch the first step, so he could no longer follow any steps after that. What he weaved was like the spiderweb of a thousand-year-old spider demon.
Cui Lingyi smiled and said, “Little Phoenix is still teaching one last time. If you still can’t learn it, you won’t have anything to eat later.”
Cui Muzhi glared at her and said angrily, “I’m already panicking enough, but cousin, you’re still mocking me.”
Cui Lingyi raised her eyebrows but her eyes were filled with smiles. “I’m clearly reminding you out of goodwill. Sigh, you don’t know how to appreciate kindness. You ‘re heartless.”
Cui Muzh was so angry that his cheeks puffed up. “Cousin!!! Wait and see, I’ll definitely knit better than yours!”
Cui Lingyi was not afraid at all. She even personally placed the half-knitted instant noodles in front of him. “Alright, you have to make something like this
Cui Lingyi knew how to weave in the first place. In her hand, the instant noodles were like a carefully unfolded work of art. They were neat and tidy. From any angle, they were the same.
Cui Muzhi’s eyes widened. He had a frightened expression on his face. He quietly hugged his head, afraid that Cui Lingyi would tease him again later.
The Cui family members were very smart. Even if they really did not have much talent as female workers, after studying hard and observing, Cui Muzhi finally successfully knitted the instant noodles.
Compared to Cui Lingyi’s instant noodles, the difference was not much. It was just a vast difference.
Everyone worked together to knit instant noodles. Chu Tianbao and Qingfeng were extremely fast. The others had only knitted two, but they had already knitted four or five.
After working for an hour, everyone was finally done with all the noodles.
Bai Wutong counted a total of 120.
The pot of oil had already heated up just right. The instant noodles were successful after deep frying.
She had to control the temperature of the instant noodles and the fire. The others could not help and only watched from the side.
Chu Tianbao sat at the stove and threw wood into it. His skilled movements made him no different from an ordinary villager.
On the other hand, Bai Wutong was holding a pair of large chopsticks. Her gaze was gentle as she kept flipping the instant noodles in the oil pot. Her exquisite face was a little out of place in her surroundings, but it also made people feel that it fit in.
They formed a wonderful and heartwarming painting. It was filled with warmth and was suggesting that the two of them did not belong there.
As the noddles were served, everyone’s attention was focused on the delicious food again.
How delicious must the noodles be after such a complicated cooking process? Everyone’s anticipation was about to burst out of their eyes.
After all 120 noodles were fried in batches, Cui Lingyi guessed, “Are we going to eat them after mixing them?”
Cui Muzhi speculated, “The fried noodles is crispy and dry. Of course, it has to be boiled and accompanied by soup!’
Bai Wutong smiled mysteriously again. “You’ll find out later.’
She wanted to show how to eat instant noodles, so she specially found a wooden fork for Stinky.
A wooden fork with instant noodles was the authentic way to eat!
Under everyone’s attention, she placed the piece of noodle into a large bowl and poured some concentrated essence of braised beef into it. Then she added water and covered it with a wooden board.
Everyone was instantly surprised. “So this is how it’s eaten! ”
‘What’s this noodles called?”
“Of course the noodles that are made are called instant noodles. Do you know what the other name is?”
Everyone shook their heads curiously.
Bai Wutong smiled and narrowed her eyes. “You’ll know later.”
She kept them in suspense, making everyone anxious.
After a while, she glanced at the time in the space and finally uncovered the board.
A magical fragrance immediately hooked everyone’s taste buds.
This was too fragrant!
It was just fried noodles, but the noodles made from it smelled so good!
It was so fragrant that Cui Muzhi almost drooled.
Bai Wutong stirred with a wooden fork, and the fragrance spread throughout the house. Xiaobai even rushed in from outside.
Bai Wutong picked up the extremely elastic instant noodles and smiled deeply. “The name of the instant noodles is because it’s very convenient.” Cui Muzhi asked, “It is so troublesome to make. How is it convenient?”
He knitted instant noodles until his hands hurt.
Bai Wutong scooped a wisp of instant noodles from each person’s plate and poured some broth. Then she said, “It feels complicated for us to make instant noodles, but when we go out with the noodles, we only need to soak it in hot water and we can eat noodles with soup. It can fill our stomachs. Isn’t that convenient?”
Suddenly, Chu Tianbao was stunned. He did not know why his mind would pop up an idea. This was very suitable as food for the soldiers when marching and at war.
Cui Muzhi immediately reacted. “Wow, this is too awesome! This is very suitable for students to carry during the imperial examination!”
Sheng Huaixuan smiled and said, “It’s not just the imperial examination. It’s very convenient during travels! ”
Cui Lingyi exclaimed, “It’s indeed instant noodles! The most magical noodles in the world!”
Cui Muzhi beamed with joy and said, “If there’s such delicious noodles every day, it definitely won’t be so tiring to travel.”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Everyone, try it. It tastes best when it’s hot.”
Everyone tasted the noodles. The noodles were sucked into their mouths as if they were alive. They were chewy and solid. Images of Chu Tianbao smashing the noodles and becoming one with it kept appearing in their minds. Cui Muzhi was a foodie. His eyes widened as he took another gulp of soup.
Fresh! Smooth! Chewy! Refreshing!
It was just too little and not satisfying.
Everyone looked as if they wanted more.
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “I’ll teach everyone how to eat the mixed noodles again.”
Everyone wanted to know how to eat the noodles, but they wished they could immediately suck a bowl of instant noodles. They could only listen to Bai Wutong’s arrangements with conflicted and expectant excitement.
After learning how to eat the noodles, Cui Muzhi could not take it anymore. He mixed a bowl of noodles in one go and made a bowl of instant noodles. After finishing them all, his stomach was bulging, and he still felt that he had not had enough.
Chu Tianbao had actually eaten three bowls!!
If not for the fact that he was stopped by Bai Wutong, he would have eaten a fourth bowl.
Everyone’s stomachs were full. There were so many noodles left. Bai Wutong gave each of them ten pieces and filled a jar with sauce for them to take away.
When Cui Muzhi returned home, he had two big bowls of instant noodles for lunch. Before night fell, he thought about eating instant noodles again.
He ran to the kitchen himself, asked for a large bowl, and returned to his room. He made noodles very solemnly, his expression solemn, like a faithful believer praying to God.
When the instant noodles were cooked, Cui Muzhi’s eyes seemed to shoot out lasers as he picked up the bowl happily.. Just as he picked up his chopsticks and before he could close his mouth, Cui Shiji appeared in front of him and shouted, “Let go of that bowl of noodles! Let me go first!”
