Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1715: Chapter 1695:

"A thousand per meal? Really?" He Wenyu jumped up instantly, looking like he intended to go out and cook a dozen meals a day.

"Really, really, no rush. Judging by his appearance, he shouldn’t leave anytime soon. This could be stable income." Luo Qianqian said calmly.

He Wenyu’s face was full of surprise: "It’s simply unexpected wealth. Should we also start selling desserts?"

"If you actually do that, the old man might expel you from the sect." Luo Qianqian hurriedly stopped him, not to mention buying things might violate the academy’s principles, plus, with that time, why not focus on cultivation? Are they here at the academy to do business?

Luo Xihan’s business isn’t enough? Do they also need to expand the business to every corner of the continent?

Even if that’s the case, He Wenyu needn’t do it personally, right?

At most, just earn some Glory Points on the side without affecting oneself, that’s all.

Nonetheless, He Wenyu calculated seriously: "However, I’m almost out of ingredients. What about you?" He frowned, looking like he was watching money fly away right in front of him.

Luo Qianqian shrugged: "I thought about it; when I cook, forget it, after all... you know. But when it’s your turn, you can totally have them prepare the ingredients, just need to provide seasonings."

"I’m also out of seasonings, let’s have them provide that too!" He Wenyu immediately suggested.

Luo Qianqian looked at He Wenyu, silent for a moment: "You know why their food doesn’t taste good? Plus, things sold in each place have a peculiar local taste, which disappears once you leave the area?"

"Why?" He Wenyu was stunned, a bit dumbfounded. But she somehow felt she should know the answer to Luo Qianqian’s question...

"Because the impurities in the seasonings affect the taste." Luo Qianqian explained quietly, looking at He Wenyu: "If you don’t believe me, you can try. But no matter how skilled your cooking is, I’d refuse to eat it; who knows what impurities might be inside."

"I kind of remember hearing this?" He Wenyu was silent for a moment before looking to Luo Qianqian for confirmation: "Wasn’t it mentioned on some cooking show?"

"...Do you think I watch cooking shows?" Luo Qianqian shook her head speechlessly: "High school chemistry, purifying coarse salt; not just salt, everything else is similar, right?"

"Oh... right, right, like calcium carbonate, and mixed with all sorts of small stones." He Wenyu nodded in realization; she knew she’d remembered this at some point.

But... why didn’t she recall it earlier? Luo Qianqian had to remind her, it seemed like she returned all the textbook knowledge to the teacher...

Luo Qianqian shook her head speechlessly: "But, for lunch, I want a stir-fry." Then immediately began to request, really can’t eat noodles anymore, probably won’t want these things for a month!

No matter if they’re boiled, soaked, or stir-fried, she doesn’t want them; noodles have become a conditioned response for her, seeing them makes her feel full.

It’s probably like seeing a sour plum automatically makes one salivate, right? But for them, it’s quenching thirst by looking at a plum, what would this be called? Perhaps... fullness by looking at noodles?

"Alright, I also want some rice." Without being prompted by Luo Qianqian, He Wenyu also didn’t want noodles anymore, truly fed up with them.

Twice a day, noodles for both meals.

Sometimes she thought even drinking the northwest wind would be better than this, right?

Sighed lightly, estimating the ingredients: "How about boiled fish? It’s more filling, and... no meat."

She hadn’t forgotten Luo Qianqian’s aversion to meat, and having chopped, grilled, and eaten so much yesterday, even she felt nauseated and didn’t want it for the time being.

"Have the teacher catch fish, okay? Make sure it’s fish, not crocodile, especially not poison crocodile... we’re out of antidote." He Wenyu stressed.

Luo Qianqian looked at the noodles in front of her, couldn’t eat anymore, and happily nodded, taking out the untouched two bowls of noodles, only to see Fu Qing looking longingly in the kitchen’s direction.

Dumbfounded for a moment, even those with no survival instinct still follow the foodie nature, right?

"We haven’t eaten these, they’re untouched, if you don’t mind..."

The next second, the noodles had already been carried away by Fu Qing, who sat in the corner eating quickly.

It’s not that he forgot to act; it’s just that if this were the daily fare, he genuinely wouldn’t mind being a useless senior disciple his whole life, even if meals cost money!

Um... Luo Qianqian watched Fu Qing’s actions, paused for a moment, then gently shook her head.

Poor guy, if he tried desserts or He Wenyu’s dishes, wouldn’t he cling to He Wenyu’s leg begging her to marry him?

"Hey... Shiliu said to make fish for lunch, asking you old man to catch some. No crocodiles, just the ones swimming, swimming, with no legs." Luo Qianqian inspected the empty pot, getting used to this over the days...

After hearing Luo Qianqian’s words, the old man jumped up: "Make fish? Fish is good! Wait!" With that, he had already left the yard...

"Uh... no need to rush... it’s lunch... we just finished breakfast..." Luo Qianqian was stunned, helplessly.

She could only shrug, casually browsing her surroundings without spotting anything potentially useful, then passing through the yard, glancing at the noodle-eater in the corner, subtly shaking her head, unsure if out of pity or sympathy.

Meanwhile, He Wenyu looked at Luo Qianqian with full resentment: "Every day I sleep, you cultivate. Now there’s finally time and such good weather, I’m recovered, and you’re still cultivating?"

"Why do you think we’re at the academy? Do you want to carry that badge for life?"

Even Yellow Class leaving the academy can’t avoid the badge’s restraint, so many choose to do things in Freedom Town, hoping for a chance to return to the academy. Or do something, earn Honor Points, then buy those valuable elixirs.

Otherwise, this single constraint would trap them in this realm for life.

Only by breaking through the established realm can they reach new heights.

Yet this height remains unreachable for many in their lifetime.

But between hopelessness and potential hope, most choose the latter.

Only those choosing the latter must possess a heaven-sent talent and driven diligence coupled with relentless effort.

"... Fine, you make sense." He Wenyu smiled helplessly.

It seemed that even without the badge, Luo Qianqian seldom chose to sleep, mostly using cultivation instead.

Strength is supreme, in this world, strength is everything.
