Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback! novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: You Can Still Pick Mushrooms?!

“I’m pissed,” Jiang Yan cursed again, “These people are too much, aren’t they? They expect us to fend for ourselves even to sleep and to eat—I mean, at least you get food and shelter when you’re in jail!”

Jiang Li glanced coolly at him, “Or how about I call the police now and get you arrested?”

Jiang Yan: “……” Could this girl not tell he was joking?

“What are we going to eat in the morning?” Jiang Yan looked weary, “I’m telling you, all your brother can do is cook instant noodles, so don’t count on me.”

“I wasn’t counting on you.”

[I’m dying of laughter, haha, Lili is so savage.]

[I’m dead, they’re both so entertaining.]

[Jiang Li is so gentle and patient with others, but she’s a totally different person when it comes to Jiang Yan, true siblings LOL.]

Having already gotten up and started live streaming, Xiang Hao: [Of course, our Sister Li is the gentlest and most beautiful.]

Still lurking in the live streaming room and analyzing data, Lu Xingchao: [Sister Li soars bravely, Lu Xing forever by her side.]

Just woke up and still groggy, Jiang Shixu: [I’m her real little brother too, but Sister treats me well, so, Jiang Yan deserves it.]

Sharp-eyed netizens quickly noticed that today’s live stream room for Jiang Li had more voices supporting her than yesterday.

It truly had the vibe of a fan circle.

[No way, did Jiang Li clean up her image that fast? She already has die-hard fans?]

[With Lu Xing leading the charge, how could it not be fast? I still find her very annoying anyway, I don’t know what there is to be a fan of, she’s just a nobody trying to make some money.]

Jiang Li was clueless about what was happening in the live stream room.

Right now, she was busily dragging a big basket of stuff from the doorway.

Jiang Yan glanced over and his eyes widened, “Damn it, Jiang Li, it’s not like we’re so destitute we have to resort to this. What are you doing dragging a basket of mud over here?” fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Jiang Li ignored him.

She quietly carried the basket over to the well, drew up a bucket of clean water, and methodically started to wash the contents of the basket.

Jiang Yan, curious, walked over.

Only then did he realize she was actually washing a huge basket of mushrooms.

Having tasted all kinds of delicacies, he recognized what was in Jiang Li’s hands, and there were even a few precious wild mushrooms.

“Where did you get so many mushrooms from? Didn’t you say there was nowhere to buy stuff around here?”

Jiang Li’s voice was cold: “I picked them, of course.”

“You know how to forage for mushrooms?!” Jiang Yan was somewhat surprised, “Since when did you learn to farm behind my back?”

Jiang Li couldn’t be bothered to argue with him and issued him an ultimatum—

“If you don’t want to starve, come help me wash these, or else, this bucket of well water is your breakfast.”

Jiang Yan grimaced but had no choice but to squat down beside the well.

The two figures, one big and one small, squeezed together.

On the screen, Jiang Shixu pouted in secret.

He wanted to wash mushrooms with his sister too.

Lu Xingchao, on the other hand, was passionately pounding on the keyboard: [The goddess is so amazing, she even knows how to gather mushrooms!]

[Please, between the morning workouts and mushroom picking, isn’t this persona a bit too forced? So fake.]

[Exactly, Jiang Li is from the Capital, she normally wouldn’t come across such wild flavors, how can she tell which ones are edible and which ones are not? Don’t get poisoned later on.]

[I’m waiting for Jiang Li to prove them wrong!]

After washing them, Jiang Li brought the basket of mushrooms into the kitchen.

The camera followed her in.

She scooped out a basin of flour from the ceramic jar, added water, and began kneading it skillfully.

Her stepmother was also a spoon maestro; after being influenced by her for so long, she naturally picked up a bit of everything, not to mention these hand-pulled noodles that required no technical skill at all.

Jiang Yan, who was facing her and hungry enough that his belly was stuck to his back, made a move to snatch the noodles from her hands.

Jiang Li agilely dodged with a side-step.

“This isn’t for you.”

Jiang Yan complained, “I even helped you clean the mushrooms, and you won’t give me a bite to eat?”

“Grandpa just came back; this bowl is for him first,” Jiang Li said methodically, “Besides, if you want some, you can have it for five hundred a bowl; sign an IOU, and it’s yours.”

Jiang Yan: ???

“Jiang Li, have you gone crazy for money? A rental fee for a phone is one thing, but you’re charging me for noodles? Five hundred a bowl? What’s in these noodles, lobster or sea cucumber?”

Jiang Li remained unfazed and explained slowly, “I handpicked these mushrooms, and I hand-rolled these noodles; they’re priceless. Take it or leave it.”

Jiang Yan: “….”

He really couldn’t swallow his pride.

But that pot of noodles was just too fragrant, the umami from the mushrooms and the richness of the whole grain flour were all brought out in the simmer.

There was no meat or fish, yet it was as if it was the rich aroma of chicken soup.

To have such a bowl early in the morning…

“Alright, alright, five hundred it is!”

Jiang Yan swallowed hard and turned to run inside the house for paper and pen.

“LOL, Jiang Yan is getting more and more conscious now, he even started writing his own IOUs.”

“Are Jiang Li’s cooking skills really that aromatic? It does look delicious on the live broadcast.”

“When you’re starving, even cold water is fragrant, how tasty can such plain noodles be? And it’s made by Jiang Li.”
