Chapter 770, Luxurious Rice Sauce

Translator: Silavin

 

What Su Bai obtained from the System today was a rice sauce, specifically a mushroom and chilli rice sauce.

 

It had been some time since he had eaten this kind of rice sauce. Back on Earth, rice sauce was highly sought after by people.

 

There were all varieties of rice sauces: spicy, salty, sweet and sour. Sometimes when eating without proper side dishes, they would bring out rice sauce to mix with their rice.

 

This solved many people’s problem of not knowing how to cook, or families too busy without time to prepare food for children.

 

Because rice sauce contained numerous ingredients, each bite had a very rich flavour.

 

“Shaman, what is this?” Yu Ying looked at those bottles of rice sauce on the table.

 

Yu Ying had never seen glass with such exquisite packaging, and there were many characters written on the outside that she couldn’t understand.

 

Most importantly, the colour coordination was extremely attractive. It was like a piece of art placed on the table.

 

“This is rice sauce. We’re having wheat rice for lunch right now, so you can try it.” Su Bai smiled.

 

It was already lunch hour. He had checked in with the System while Yu Ying entered the kitchen to bring out dishes.

 

Recently he had too many things keeping him busy. Sometimes upon waking in the morning, he would forget about checking in.

 

So, when he just remembered, he immediately checked in, avoiding wasting the day’s quota.

 

“Rice sauce?” Yu Ying had never heard this term. She tilted her head and asked. “Shaman, is it mixed into wheat rice to eat together?”

 

“That’s right. Open it and try.” Su Bai began opening the rice sauce.

 

This was from Earth. Yu Ying definitely could not open it. She wouldn’t even know how to remove the plastic film outside.

 

After Su Bai opened the rice sauce, he used a wooden spoon to scoop some out and place it on the wheat rice.

 

He took chopsticks and stirred that bowl of wheat rice, saying, “Come, try the taste.”

 

Yu Ying hastily shook her head, pushing that bowl of Wheat rice back, immediately saying. “Shaman, you eat first.”

 

Yu Ying felt somewhat overwhelmed by favour. She hadn’t expected the Shaman to push the first bowl of mixed rice to her.

 

You must understand this was simply impossible. A Shaman typically had a Shaman Priestess serving him. Now the Shaman personally mixing rice was one thing.

 

The important part was giving the first bowl to herself. How could Yu Ying endure such a ‘shock’.

 

“It’s fine. Otherwise, you won’t know how to prepare it either.” Su Bai had already begun mixing the second bowl of rice.

 

Yu Ying felt tremendously conflicted. She sighed, took the spoon and began eating. Just as it entered her mouth, her pink eyes widened.

 

She lowered her head and frantically ate several more bites, exclaiming. “Shaman, this rice sauce is delicious.”

 

Yu Ying rarely ate such delicious things. The good things she had previously eaten were all because of Su Bai.

 

If not for the Shaman, she would probably still be eating that meat with fur and heavy fishy smell.

 

“As long as you like it.” Su Bai also began eating heartily. Indeed, eating rice with rice sauce was very fragrant.

 

However, this taste was very familiar to him, while for Yu Ying it was novel.

 

This era had no wheat whatsoever, much less these seasoned foods. So for them, the food they ate each day could be considered Heaven’s blessing.

 

“Shaman, why is it so delicious? Did you make this rice sauce?” Yu Ying asked curiously.

 

Although she thought this, Yu Ying had never seen Su Bai making rice sauce.

 

Every day’s busy matters were extremely numerous. Sometimes he would work continuously from waking until closing his eyes at night.

 

Most importantly, she accompanied him most of the time. Where would the Shaman have extra time to make this rice sauce?

 

Even if he did make it, she should have seen it. Although she didn’t know what was inside the rice sauce, she could tell it definitely contained very many things.

 

If this rice sauce was personally made by the Shaman, then when the Shaman was preparing materials, she should have known about it.

 

But she had seen nothing, nor heard that the glass workshop had made such a container.

 

“Do you want to learn to make rice sauce?” Su Bai deflected the topic.

 

He didn’t know how to explain the rice sauce’s origin to Yu Ying. He couldn’t exactly say it came from the System, could he?

 

At this moment, he could only use other questions to evade. This was truly somewhat awkward.

 

“I want to learn. I want to learn how to make rice sauce.” Yu Ying said without hesitation.

 

Such delicious food. How could Yu Ying willingly pass up learning its preparation method?

 

“Then we’ll need to prepare some ingredients. Whether rice sauce tastes good depends entirely on the ingredients.” Su Bai smiled.

 

He also wanted to produce a batch of rice sauce in the Primitive Era. This way, when Warriors went on missions, they could bring one or two bottles along.

 

One or two bottles could last many days. Anyway, mission cycles weren’t particularly long. Sometimes it wasn’t possible to bring too many seasonings. Bringing one bottle of rice sauce would suffice.

 

“Shaman, what ingredients should I prepare? I’ll go prepare them right now.” Yu Ying had already stood up.

 

Yu Ying’s entire mind was on making rice sauce now. She had completely no appetite for the food before her.

 

“Don’t rush. Let’s first finish lunch. After eating, there’ll be time to make rice sauce.” Su Bai raised his hand in a calming gesture.

 

He knew Yu Ying definitely couldn’t sit still. Given her love for making delicious food, she would definitely want to learn immediately.

 

“Good.” Yu Ying sat down and began eating with her head lowered and focused intensity.

 

Yu Ying at this moment lost her usual refined manner. Instead, she displayed considerable drive.

 

Half an hour later, the two simply finished lunch. Yu Ying immediately had someone take the bowls and chopsticks down for washing.

 

“Shaman, can I go prepare the ingredients now?” Yu Ying’s pink eyes were watery and imploring.

 

Yu Ying had been restless while eating, her heart continuously wanting to finish quickly and go make rice sauce.

 

“Ha ha ha.” Su Bai laughed heartily, continuing: “First you need to prepare fresh meat. Any meat type will do. After that, prepare some chilli, garlic…”

 

He told Yu Ying all the materials needed to make rice sauce once through, pausing after each ingredient for a while to let her remember properly.

 

Who told Yu Ying she was not like Sha Lan? Her memory was not on par, so she could only memorize things slowly.

 

“Shaman, making rice sauce requires this many ingredients?” Yu Ying was somewhat dumbfounded.

 

“Of course. Whether rice sauce tastes good depends entirely on the ingredients.” Su Bai nodded without hesitation.

 

The rice sauce he wanted to make was different from Earth’s. The materials he selected were particularly numerous. It could be called luxurious rice sauce.

 

“Yes.” Yu Ying turned and ran out.
