As I was looking at the ingredients and thinking what to make for my first meal, I thought about making something simple and easy to digest though I won't have any problem digesting with this body of mine.
After thinking for a while, I set today's menu and decided to make fried sauce noodles, seasoned with a little bit of salt and pepper and for flavour I will use stir-fried cauliflower.
First, She decided to make the hand- pulled noodles and the first step in making that is to perfectly balance the amount of flour and water which is mostly based on the individual experience rather than a fixed measurement.
And the most captivating thing about cooking is that even with the same recipe and the same process, the end result depends entirely upon who cooked it and how it was cooked.
After finishing mixing the dough, she wrapped it in a plastic and kept in a small bowl and let it rest for the moment.
In the meantime, she started working with the other ingredients.
Another ingredients for the fried sauce noodles is fat of the pork belly which should have a 60 to 40 fat and meat.
After cutting the meat into small pieces and letting it shimmer in a pan until a it reaches a golden brown colour will have a slight burnt fragrance and a bit of a crispiness to it.
The washed carrots and mashrooms.were cut into small pieces and stir fried with diced cauliflower under even heat until it becomes a bit more vibrant in colour.
Then she took a bit of a soybean paste which she prepared in advance and mixed it with some sweet noodles souce to make it a bit more flavourful.
As a person who loved food to the point of becoming a professional chef just to fill your pallets, well she herself makes different kinds of souces and flavours that better suits her taste buds.
The soybeans were soft , sweet and gluttonous and mixed with other vegetables, they provided a different kind of flavour that wasn't present before.
When she was preparing the sauce, she also half- boiled an egg and took it out of the pan to let it cool for a while.
At this moment, she took the fermented dough from the bowl and started working on it as she took it in one hand and started stretching it carefully from one hand to the other but just enough to not let it break. Then she twisted the elongated dough and threw it on the table and started stretching and twisting again and again to give it an elastic feel.
After that she took the elongated noodles and cut it into small parts and then folded them into layers until the thin and long noodles were formed.
As she was doing her work, she didn't notice that above her head, a tiny little head which probably belongs to a 4 year old cute little girl was hanging from a window shaped void that was created in the system.
This probably 3-4 year old little girl was none other than little An, with a pair of pigtails hung on both side of her face and a white a tender face looking over curiously at what her big sis was doing.
This was the first time she saw something that fascinated her soo much that for a second she forgot to conceal her presence and Mo Yuxin immediately felt a presence around her. As she checked who it was, at that moment she raised her head and what she saw made her heart tremble for a moment.
Those sparkling glass like eyes with those cute chubby baby fat on her face and those twin-tails dangling back and forth by her side just made her all the more adorable.
She took a few seconds to calm herself and asked in somewhat expectant tone "little An ??? "
At that moment, the girl also suddenly felt someone calling for her and as she saw that it was her big sis, she suddenly panicked even forgetting to keep the void up as it disappeared and she felt nothing below her that could support her and started falling downwards.
She closed her eyes and braced herself for the impact but forgetting a very important fact that she is part of the system and things like gravity and pain doesn't affect her here, but in her panicked and anxious state she forgot the basics but at that moment instead of a hard impact what she felt was a soft embrace.
As she saw little An falling from the void, she went flying ahead and caught her in the mid air. Then she looked down in her embrace to see the small little baby looking at her with eyes that seemed to melt even a heart made of stone as the corner of her eyes glistened with crystal tears and she heard a shaky, milky voice calling out to her, "Big Sis, I..."
As the little bun spoke, her twin tails swayed back and forth nervously as she looked at her big sis with a myriad of feeling and emotions which shocked even herself.
She is part of the system or the Inheritance, in reality she IS the inheritance as she is it's divine spirit which has the complete control of the inheritance and her only task is to serve her master to the fullest and let her stand at the pinnacle. But at that moment, what she felt was probably the lovable and warm embrace of a mother, which she only ever knew in theory.
Her emotions overflowed as she felt all kinds of emotions from surprise to panick to anxiousness and even the mysterious feeling of a child wanting to borrow in her mother's embrace and feel her love for herself.
As she was feeling all these extraordinary feeling for the first time since her very existence, she also experienced the feeling of shedding tears for the first time ever.
As Mo Yuxin looked at her adorable little An and saw her trembling in her embrace like a little furry cat and the tears gathering in the corner of her eyes made her heart feel distressed and she felt helpless for she didn't know how to coax a little baby.
Still, with whatever little she knew, she placed her hand on top of her head and rubbed her hair and said in a tone which had a very obvious tenderness which she herself didn't notice, "Little An is good, it's alright."
Little An felt her heart beating loudly at the tenderness in her voice as she wanted to indulge in this warm embrace and feel love of a mother all the more. For a divine spirit, she might be first in all of existence to feel a deep desire in her heart to call her mom and to be loved. But she suppressed these burning desires and calmed herself down as quickly as possible and she climbed down from her embrace.
Mo Yuxin felt a little bitterness and sour inside her heart as little An climbed down from her embrace. She felt a little empty for some reason but couldn't point it out. Then she heard the little girl saying,
"Big sis, you are soo sooo sooooo awesome and cool, the way you made those noodles seemed like a pheonix dancing in the sky, your hands looked like hands of God of art as those noodles danced at your tunes...." She said all these with a big bright smile on her face as she exclaimed how cool I looked while making those noodles.
Though she was exaggerating the whole ordeal, I still couldn't help but feel happy in my heart when she complimented me soo much.
'Ahh,,,... Such an adorable little sister!' I thought in my heart but kept only a little smile on my face as I listened to her talking adorably.
