The smoke mushrooms with their outer membranes removed are extremely white. They are strung up on wooden skewers and placed directly on the fire. When exposed to the temperature of the flames, the skin swells up in an instant, which makes people tremble, as if they are about to explode in the next second.
"How have you been lately?"
Zheng Yuan flipped a handful of skewers in his hand casually, and then asked.
"It's very good. I didn't dare to sell the Kaidi sweet egg you gave me, so I ate it myself. I used the remaining eggshells to exchange for a lot of food coins, and then I saved them all in the food fund. I have a fixed amount of money every year. , so no one in the village does anything to me, as you can see, I have grown taller and fatter."
She stared blankly at the mushroom on the fire that seemed to be about to explode in the next second, but Yuanyuan felt no worry or fear in her heart and smiled happily at Zheng Yuan.
"Sorry, I was careless at that time. I should have paid you directly."
Zheng Yuan said a little guiltily. In the past, he was so stupid that he actually handed over a valuable gem egg to a little girl who had no power to protect him. Fortunately, Yuanyuan was smart enough, otherwise Zheng Yuan would regret it for the rest of his life.
"It's okay. You also said that my food luck is very good. Instead of worrying about something happening to me, it's better to worry about me eating too much and getting really round."
Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes and looked at Zheng Yuan, then pinched her round cheeks.
"That's so nice, so cute, so chubby."
Zheng Yuan joked, his hands did not stop while chatting, the dancing skewers seemed to turn into shadows, and a little bit of aroma began to disperse.
"Where's the improvement? Now I feel a little regretful that I ate too much before, and now I'm 120 pounds."
Yuanyuan frowned and said a little distressed.
"Of course you have to eat more if you can, don't let the food go down!"
Zheng Yuan gestured at his arms, which were round and thick.
"..."
The two people looked at each other and smiled, and then suddenly fell into silence. They were talking and laughing one second, but they didn't know what to say the next second.
"Why don't you get out of here?"
Looking at the smoke mushrooms that bubbled and subsided more and more frequently, Zheng Yuan suddenly spoke and broke the silence.
"...I don't know, I guess I can't bear to leave them. If they drop out of school without me, they will have no future. Anyway, I don't know what to do, so I might as well help them."
Yuanyuan's eyes were a little confused, and she tilted her head to look at Tutu who was running to the side chasing butterflies. Her long hair fell down and covered her face, adding a bit of mystery to her.
"I'll have someone come over in a few days..."
"No."
Zheng Yuan was interrupted by Yuanyuan before he finished speaking. Zheng Yuan looked at Yuanyuan with some doubts.
"No, I'm very grateful to you, Brother Zheng Yuan, but I don't want to rely too much on you. I don't want to be attached to your body like a parasite. I want to be your friend."
Yuanyuan looked at Zheng Yuan with firm eyes and a firm tone.
Zheng Yuan smiled. Looking at the stubborn Yuanyuan, it was as if he saw himself. Nono, she has the same characteristics as him, stubborn and stubborn. She probably feels that accepting her excessive help is not equal for two people. They are not equal. How can people become friends?
"Yuanyuan, you are my friend, so please rely on me more."
Putting the smoke mushroom that was about to explode aside to cool down, Zheng Yuan reached out and touched the round head. It felt soft and slightly larger than Nono, so it was easier to plate. Zheng Yuan couldn't help but plate it for a while.
"..."
Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes and enjoyed it for a while, then came back to her senses and broke away from Zheng Yuan's big hand. She covered the top of her head with both hands and looked at Zheng Yuan angrily, like a rabbit.
"Don't reject me. If you don't think about yourself, you should think about those children. I will build a student fund in the village so that they can receive a better education. As for the money, of course I won't pay all of it. You want it too. Give half."
Zheng Yuan said slowly.
"Should I contribute half of it? Even with my food fund, it won't be much."
Yuanyuan scratched her head in distress. It wasn't that she was reluctant to part with her money, but because she didn't have enough money. Even if Zheng Yuan contributed the same amount as herself, it wouldn't be enough to start a student fund.
"Then why don't you go capture Kaidi's sweet eggs with me?"
Zheng Yuan told Yuan Yuan the purpose of his trip and looked at Yuanyuan seriously.
"Of course, then I'll ask for your advice."
Yuanyuan agreed without hesitation, her heart was extremely excited, and her face was hot. I wonder if it was the heat of the fire or the overclocking of her heart, or both?
"Then after eating these, let's set off immediately!"
Zheng Yuan handed over 100 million cooled smoke mushrooms that were suitable for eating, and at the same time called Tutu who was chasing butterflies.
"Eat, this is very delicious."
Zheng Yuan said softly as he picked up the paper-light piece of earth with no more than 5% body fat.
"Thank you, brother Zheng Yuan!"
Tutu, who had become acquainted with Zheng Yuan, was no longer as restrained as before. He happily took the skewers, thanked him and started eating eagerly. The aroma had already made Tutu, who had always been hungry, greedy.
"Thanks for all the ingredients in the world, I'm rolling."
The skin of the gunpowder mushrooms, which were slightly yellowed after being roasted, was slightly wrinkled. Dots of oil reflected the light from the fire and the sunset in the sky. The rich aroma of the mushrooms floated in the air, making Zheng Yuan's mouth water.
Full of gratitude for the food, Wuming was moved, Zheng Yuan opened his mouth, bit the smoke mushroom sideways, then pulled it, moved his mouth slightly, and the whole mushroom was contained in his mouth.
The teeth broke through the skin, and the juicy interior under the roasted soft yet tough skin revealed its true face to Zheng Yuan.
fresh!
Very fresh!
Because of Zheng Yuan's superb fire control, the smoke mushrooms with a completion rate of more than 90% bloomed like never before. They are extremely fresh and sweet. Different from the freshness and sweetness of seafood, its freshness and sweetness are unique to mushrooms, with a rich feeling. The umami flavor lingers in Zheng Yuan's mouth. The crispy mushrooms crunch no matter how many times they are chewed. The rich fresh and sweet taste makes people extremely satisfied.
"Wow, it's delicious."
Looking at Yuanyuan and Tutu who were completely immersed in the delicious taste of the smoked mushrooms, Zheng Yuan rarely fought with them and left most of the skewers to them. He just picked up a few skewers and ate them. He has eaten too many delicacies. Although the taste in front of him makes him happy, he does not lose his mind. It is better to give it to people who need it more.
"I kind of want to go to that place."
Looking up at the sunset, Zheng Yuan's eyes were full of longing and longing, and then his reason suppressed his sensibility.
"Not enough, still not enough, I have to become stronger!"
Zheng Yuan secretly made up his mind, stretched out his hand to face the sun, which looked extremely huge because it was close to the horizon, and his eyes became firm.
"Wait for me, Food World!"
PS: I can’t stand the recent updates, so I won’t ask for votes. I will enter the food world in one or two episodes, and I will probably put it on the shelves by then. I hope I can make some money, but It doesn’t matter if I can’t make any money, it’s just a matter of interest, as long as I’m happy.
