Chapter 42: Just Learn It If You’d Like To
“Young Lady, are you going to cook this time?” Zheng Peiqi asked expectantly.
“Yes. However, I need to get everything prepared in advance for live stream. Can you help me?” Yu Jinli checked the time. It was two hours before dinner. He needed to take care of all the ingredients now.
The three cooks nodded vigorously at that.
Sure! Sure they would help the young lady. Every time he cooked it was a pleasure to the eye.
“Young Lady, when do you plan to start live streaming?” Zheng Peiqi couldn’t suppress his curiosity after all and asked.
In fact, the young generation of families of cooks did live stream too, showing the viewers cooked dishes. Though they only presented cooked food, that gave many cooks a great opportunity to learn.
If the Young Lady did live stream, he would do better than those guys. The people of families of cooks wouldn’t be a match for him.
Thinking of that, Zheng Peiqi and the other two started to feel proud to know the Young Lady.
“About half an hour later.” Yu Jinli checked the time again and estimated how long it would take to prepare all the ingredients before he answered.
Now, not only Zheng Peiqi, but also Zhao Fei and Qian Laiduo were stunned and said instinctively: “Young Lady, you won’t be able to cook all those dishes in half an hour.”
Yu Jinli turned to them a bit confused and answered: “I’m not going to. These ingredients are for the live stream.”
At that, the three men were even more surprised with their mouths dropped open.
What did they just hear?
“Young Lady, you... are going to live stream the cooking process?” Zheng Peiqi thought he might have misheard.
A real cook would hide his skills from the world, afraid that others would learn from him. How come now the Young Lady wanted to live stream how to cook? Wasn’t it obvious that he wanted others to learn from him?
He was the Young Lady of Jiang Family. Why should he show others how to cook?
Zheng Peiqi and the other two thought in union. Perhaps it was because the Young Lady was too young to know how good and valuable his cooking was, that if he showed the world, he must suffer a big loss.
Therefore, the three explained that concern to Yu Jinli, hoping that he would give up his idea.
However, since Yu Jinli didn’t belong to this world, he thought differently.
When he was on earth, everyone could cook a dish or two. The only difference in that was taste. Therefore, nobody would hide his recipe from others.
Now he had arrived in this interstellar time, though he knew basically no one cooked, he never thought about hiding what he could do from others. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have let Zheng Peiqi and the other two watch when he was cooking.
He didn’t intend to build a fortune by cooking. What he needed now was Power of Faith, to restore his cultivation. Cooking was the only advantage he had over other steamers. Talking him out of live streaming himself cook? No way!
“Doesn’t matter. They can learn how to cook if they’d like to,” said Yu Jinli simply. He didn’t mind at all.
The three couldn’t help but feel deep veneration for him. It was the first time they meet someone so selfless and indifferent to worldly rewards.
Before they worked for Jiang Family, they had served other families and had seen too much of the complexity of human nature. Even a small kitchen would be packed with fight and scheme against each other. Now that they met someone as innocent and selfless as the Young Lady, they admired him and felt a bit sad about what they had experienced in the past.
