The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 293 - 291: Sweetness Live

Nian Shutong noticed that the current Fu Yunhe was indeed becoming tougher.

However, she really wasn’t feeling very confident.

“Ms. Nian Shutong, Rubble needs Crystal Stones.”

Following the voice, Nian Shutong looked over, realizing for the first time that members of the Mechanical Clan could also have dark circles under their eyes.

She even curiously reached out a finger, rubbed Rubble’s dark circles firmly, and then looked at her own finger.

“It’s actually not drawn on.”

Rubble was left somewhat stupefied by Ms. Nian Shutong’s series of actions.

“Ms. Nian Shutong, why would Rubble do such a thing? We of the Mechanical Clan are a truthful people.”

“Alright, alright, you’re right,” Nian Shutong responded, spinning a Crystal Stone in her hand, teasingly saying to Rubble, “Do you want it?”

“Yes.”

Rubble firmly said one word, took the Crystal Stone, and left satisfactorily.

Fu Yunhe on the other hand, gave Nian Shutong a few more glances. Where did she get this top-grade Crystal Stone from?

Such a Crystal Stone, even the Royal Family didn’t possess many.

“What, you want one too?” Nian Shutong advised, not entirely approvingly, “You should wait until your body has recovered. Right now, cultivation isn’t too helpful.”

“I understand.”

After Fu Yunhe replied, he explained the method he had discussed the day before to Nian Shutong.

“How is it?”

“Very good!” Nian Shutong generously praised Fu Yunhe, giving him two thumbs up before heading to eat.

It had to be said, thanks to Fu Yunhe, she was really spared a lot of trouble.

Walking away, Nian Shutong was speaking to Xiao Ba.

“Xiao Ba, how many Crystal Stones do I owe you?”

“Host, you still owe Xiao Ba one hundred and eight Crystal Stones.”

That many!

Her previous advancement was supported by Xiao Ba’s overdraft of Crystal Stones.

“Xiao Ba, I’ve harvested so many crops, isn’t there a reward yet?”

“Host, after harvesting seventeen more acres, you will have a reward.”

Seventeen acres?

Nian Shutong looked towards the field, it won’t be long.

The previous grains and the vegetables provided later by Xiao Ba, some were planted late, and they would likely be harvested in a few days.

However, Nian Shutong also noticed, the more she farmed, the bigger the rewards became, but the needed acreage also increased.

It was quite fair and reasonable.

At the dining table, Nian Shutong called both Fu Yunhe and Rubble back to eat first.

After breakfast, Nian Shutong began tinkering with things again.

Now that she had grains, vinegar could be moved up on her agenda.

This important condiment, finally, could be started.

Nian Shutong, along with a few other individuals making soy sauce, opened up a new spot and began brewing vinegar.

Vinegar, which could be brewed from different kinds of grains.

Ms. Nian Shutong prepared several kinds of grains, all ready to be fermented.

The general process was washing the ingredients, soaking them, fermenting the pulp, then continuing the fermentation.

According to Daodao’s description, the traditional method of making vinegar produced a fragrant flavor that was neither too sour nor too bland; everything was just right.

Ms. Nian Shutong naturally wouldn’t make vinegar with additives; she wanted to eat only the best.

This kept her busy for a whole day, and she had only just completed the washing and soaking.

It seemed that the vinegar project would take about ten to fifteen days to complete.

At seven in the evening, Little River Live began on time.

Fu Yunhe, as usual, nodded to Ms. Nian Shutong seated opposite him before starting the livestream.

“Hello everyone, I’m Xiao He.”

“Today’s stream is going to be sweet because it’s all about sugary foods.”

[What about popcorn?]

[Popcorn! Popcorn!]

[Have you eaten sugar yet?]

[I love sweets.]

[I like them too, but I’m not a fan of brown sugar.]

[Right, the maltose from the little store totally saved my taste buds, but I could only find it once.]

[Real talk, it’s too scarce.]

[When does the popcorn start?]

There were comments about sugar and some about popcorn, equally dominating the chat.

Fu Yunhe had already taken out a bag of white sugar and placed it under the camera.

“Don’t worry, everyone, our boss promises to deliver.”

“Next, take a look at our white sugar; there’s going to be a lot of delicious sweets coming up.”

Under the camera, the pristine white sugar sparkled in the light.

“First up today, white sugar rice cake.”

As he mentioned rice cake, Fu Yunhe remembered the rice noodles he had promised everyone last time; he spoke up, “Last time I promised everyone rice noodles, I will cook a pot in a bit, but for the recipe, you guys can check out the Little River video.”

Next, Fu Yunhe began the process for the white sugar rice cake.

When a white sugar rice cake began to steam in the pot, Fu Yunhe grabbed a basket containing bright red strawberries.

“Next, I’ll dip some strawberries in candy for you guys.”

[What is that?]

[I know, these are strawberries.]

[Last time we had strawberry jam, and this time we finally see real strawberries.]

[What’s a candy apple?]

[You’ll see in a bit.]

By then, Fu Yunhe had washed the strawberries clean, dried them, and started skewering them with small bamboo sticks.

“If you’re making this yourself, you can skewer several, I’ll just do one to show you.”

By this time, he had poured the white sugar into a pot, saying, “The ratio of white sugar to water is six to one, more water than sugar.”

“Simmer on low heat until the sugar in it begins to bubble and turn red, then quickly roll the skewered strawberries in it.”

“Remember, just roll them once, not more.”

“Leave the coated strawberries on a plate to cool, don’t touch them, for about ten minutes.”

After Fu Yunhe had prepared several more, he set them aside to cool.

“These will be ready to eat in a bit; I’ll open them up for everyone virtually.”

“While we wait, let me cook a bowl of rice noodles for everyone.”

When a bowl of rice noodles had been taste-tested, before the viewers could even comment, Fu Yunhe also brought out the candied strawberries, starting the virtual session.

What else to say, grab them first.

[So sweet!]

[The crispy sugar coating, absolutely to die for!]

[How is a sweet-tooth like me supposed to continue living?]

[I just want a bit of the white sugar, I don’t ask for strawberries,]

[Sell the white sugar!]
