Chapter 781: Chapter 800: That’s Right, I’m Going to Advertise
The bullet comments went silent for a moment.
A thousand sorrows—
welled up in their hearts.
Jiang Qiuqiu tilted her head and drew in a breath. "Shouldn’t this be the part where I have my stream assistant switch to some sad background music?"
"It’s starting to feel really melodramatic, like one of those 7:30 romance movies on the Federation channel."
[! Juju, you watch that movie too?]
[Gotta be honest, it really has that vibe!]
"I do. Sometimes I watch it with my roommate."
As they slowly chatted about everyday things, the gloomy atmosphere gradually returned to normal. By now, the crab was just about disassembled.
Making crab roe sauce was actually quite simple, much like making crab roe noodles. The only difference was paying closer attention to the oil and the heat when making the sauce.
The savory aroma gradually spread, the scents of the two sauces intertwining. Just then, Qiuqiu suddenly brought out a large steamer basket.
She provided her own sound effects: "TA-DA!"
"This is the ultimate vessel for mixing with sauce that I’ve prepared for you all today! Can anyone guess what it is?"
"Does this look familiar? That’s right, it’s appeared on the stream before. I think it’s a great match for the sauce."
[Noodles?]
"Nope. Noodles would be good too, but I think making them might be a little too difficult for everyone~"
[So that means whatever’s in the basket is easier to make?]
"That’s right."
That narrowed the possibilities down quite a bit!
[Rice!]
"..."
The viewers listed off every easy-to-make food they could think of, one after another. Someone even suggested pickled radish.
Jiang Qiuqiu: ’Pickled radish???’
Alright, when there was nothing left to guess, Jiang Qiuqiu lifted the lid of the steamer basket. Row after row of fluffy white steamed buns appeared before everyone’s eyes.
[...Juju, I think you might have a slight misunderstanding of what ’easy to make’ means.]
"Well, they’re easier than noodles, anyway!"
"Alright, alright, we’re running out of time, so let’s hurry~ I think these steamed buns are one of the best partners for a good sauce." She picked one up and gave it a gentle squeeze.
A well-risen and perfectly steamed bun is fluffy, soft, and supple. It had a slight springiness when squeezed. She gently tore it open, revealing the fine, dense air pockets within the snowy white interior to everyone watching.
Eating a plain steamed bun and chewing it slowly releases a subtle sweetness and fragrance characteristic of grains. But eating too many plain, unfilled buns can be a bit dry.
That’s where the sauce came in.
She scooped a spoonful of crab roe sauce from the bowl, spread it on the bun with a straight bamboo spatula, and then took a bite.
It was like a filled bun, but the experience was completely different. The savory flavor of the crab and the sweetness of the bun came together in a wonderful combination on this fine afternoon.
"See? Eating it like this is pretty fun."
[!]
[I want to eat a steamed bun even without the sauce... Ahh, it looks so soft!]
"If you want to eat, I’m about to send out the data! I prepared these buns ahead of time, and there are a lot of them! Today, everyone might be able to snag three to five data packets~ You can savor them at home!"
After speaking, she called over the butler robot. She and the robot worked as a team, one distributing the buns and the other portioning out the sauce. It looked like a complicated process, but they got it done quite quickly.
Five or six minutes later, the data for most of the food had been uploaded. The audience had snatched up their coveted items, and Qiuqiu moved around a bit with the camera bot.
Usually, this was the time to end the stream.
"Today’s stream was a relatively simple one, and it’s about to come to an end."
"Um... before I thank everyone for watching the whole stream, I have an ad to run." Qiuqiu lifted her head slightly, her eyes meeting the camera lens.
Her eyebrows curved gently, and her eyes, like limpid autumn waters, were filled with a gentle yet determined light. Her expression was both natural and playful. "That’s right, I’m running an ad!"
