Chapter 117: Rice Noodles Incident
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“The most important thing about the dish is the soup. Only by making the soup base can the noodles be delicious,” Liao Ning emphasized, highlighting the significance of the broth.
Upon her arrival at the farm, Liao Ning noticed the presence of chickens, unlike her previous visits. However, she learned that the Interstellar Alliance had recognized the similarities between the meat of the “cooing bird” and chicken. As the cooing bird was larger in size, about two to three times that of a chicken, the raising of chickens had gradually been reduced. People also began to favor the more manageable meat of the cooing bird.
As a result, Liao Ning requested an old hen from Zhang Ting to create the soup base, utilizing the thigh bone and ham.
“This is a processed old hen. Once the water in the pot comes to a boil, we’ll add it whole, along with the femur of the beast and sliced ham, to simmer the soup base,” she explained.
To achieve the finest flavor of the “Snow Soup,” it was essential to simmer the rice noodles’ soup until the chicken meat was tender and falling off the bone. This process typically required more than three hours of boiling.
“Since the soup base for the rice noodles needs to simmer for over three hours, everyone can prepare the side dishes during this time,” Liao Ning suggested.
“The book mentions 108 side dishes for this particular dish in ancient times, but since it’s unclear what those 108 dishes are, I’ll simply prepare eight based on the preferences of the two cubs. When you all prepare your own side dishes, feel free to choose according to your liking.”
Meanwhile, Song He, the owner of the interstellar farm, was on a business trip to the distant Golden Light Planet when he received a message from his subordinate, Zhang Ting. Curious, he opened the message and discovered that it contained a forwarded livestream link featuring Liao Ning in the farm’s kitchen on the capital planet, showcasing ingredients sourced from their farm.
Intrigued, Song He promptly invested money to promote a trending topic for Liao Ning’s livestream, without hesitation. With the influence of the financial boost, Liao Ning’s livestream swiftly climbed to the ninth spot on the trending topics list.
Unaware of Song He’s actions, Liao Ning was taken aback by the sudden surge in viewers during her livestream, causing her to momentarily halt her preparation of the side dishes.
“Why are there so many people all of a sudden?” Liao Ning exclaimed, gazing at the astounding count of 200 million viewers in her livestream, wearing a bewildered expression.
[Liao Ning, Liao Ning, you’re on the trending searches all of a sudden. You’re even ranked in the top ten and now hold the ninth spot!]
[Is this a gourmet livestream?]
[I joined after seeing the interstellar farm’s new product title. I thought it would be a livestream featuring a new product, but I didn’t expect it to be a gourmet livestream. ]
[This livestreamer looks so familiar.]
[This is… This is the champion of that food competition, Liao Ning!]
[Oh, it’s her. I wonder if her food is as delicious as they say. I’ll stick around and see this time.]
[Remember to activate sensory sharing mode when the time comes, so we can all taste it and judge if it’s good.]
Liao Ning observed that most of the comments from the netizens were fairly normal, but a few of them carried disdain and insults towards her.
[The livestreamer is so good-looking. Who knows how she managed to win first place? Who said that first place can only be attained through cooking skills?]
[Exactly. I’ve never even heard of someone like Liao Ning before. A low-profile livestreamer conveniently won the championship in a food competition and acquired the right to be on the capital planet. I don’t think it’s solely based on merit.]
Mili and the wolf cub, who were following the livestream through the Al, grew furious and rushed towards the camera. Mili expressed her anger, “I always thought that only ignorant children would say such things. I didn’t expect adults to be even more ignorant than children!”
“Right. My aunt is amazing. Her food is the best. No one can compare to her. You know nothing, so who gave you the right to defame my aunt?!” The wolf cub seethed with anger, its eyes turning into cold vertical pupils due to its intense emotions.
Many of Liao Ning’s fans and sensible netizens joined in scolding these troublemakers alongside the two cubs. Soon, their comments were drowned amidst the flood of incoming comments.
Before long, some netizens were astonished to discover that the official account of the Zhou family had made a post—a lawyer’s letter. The account that had spoken rudely during Liao Ning’s livestream was explicitly mentioned in the letter. The final signature was from the most renowned law firm in the alliance, with Zhou Ling listed as the client.
The netizens were in an uproar. They were mesmerized by Colonel Zhou Ling’s domineering attitude of protecting his wife. Zhou Ling helped Liao Ning gain popularity again..
