Miss Yu Decides To Change Her Fate After Being Reborn! - Chapter 457
457 Onion Noodles
Yu Yan replied that she would return home as soon as possible for the new year and hoped that her parents could send some more money over for travel expenses.
Yu Yan’s new cotton clothes had been sold last time. Now, be it buying ready-made clothes or buying cotton to make them herself, she needed stamps.
However, Yu Yan didn’t have any stamps now, so she asked her adoptive mother to send a new cotton shirt over with the excuse that she had donated the new cotton shirt she had received last year to a poor orphan.
Then, she asked about her adoptive brother’s recovery and expressed her worries as sincerely as possible. After writing the letter, she stuffed it into the envelope and prepared to send it out when she went to town tomorrow.

The next day was New Year’s Day, so many people in the village woke up early and went to town or county city.
Yu Bing and Jiang Chun chose to sleep in at home and woke up at ten o’clock.
The two of them had just washed up when they heard a knock on the door. Little Tiger, who was playing in the courtyard, shouted at the closed courtyard door.
After Yu Bing hurriedly went to open the door, she realized that Wang Yun and Song Li were standing outside. She asked happily, “Why are you two here?”
Yu Bing had not been to the Song family’s house for more than three months because she was busy. She held their hands and led them in happily. “Come in and sit!”
Wang Yun rolled her eyes at Yu Bing. “If you hadn’t come, you would have forgotten about me.”
Song Li pouted and said, “Hmph, you must have forgotten about me too.”
Yu Bing joked with a smile, “I didn’t forget you guys. I’ve been too busy recently. I wanted to visit you guys, Uncle Song, and Auntie Song during the factory’s break.”
Because Jiang Chun had seen the two of them before, she came out of the room and greeted them. “Have you guys eaten breakfast yet? I’ll cook now. Let’s eat together later.”
Song Li hurriedly pulled Jiang Chun and rejected, “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. We only came after eating. We just want to talk to Yu Bing about something.”
Yu Bing deliberately revealed a regretful expression. “That’s a pity. I originally wanted to make onion noodles.”
Yu Bing had made onion noodles in the Song family’s house once. Mrs. Song had learned how to make it a few times, but failed to replicate the taste.
Now that she could eat it, Song Li’s eyes lit up and she raised her hand. “I’ll eat! I’ll eat! Add me a bowl.”
When Wang Yun saw that her sister-in-law had changed her mind without hesitation, she coughed lightly and said, “It took a lot of energy to ride a motor here, so I’m a little hungry too. I’d like a bowl.”
Yu Bing and Jiang Chun burst out laughing.
Jiang Chun praised, “Yu Bing’s onion noodles are indeed superb.”
Song Li and Wang Yun immediately nodded in agreement.
Yu Bing smiled and said, “You guys have been to my house before, so make yourselves at home.”
Song Li pushed Yu Bing into the kitchen with an anxious expression. “Hurry up and cook it. Don’t worry about us. We won’t stand on ceremony with you.”
Yu Bing smiled and started making noodles after she was pushed into the kitchen.
Onion noodles were a specialty of Yu Bing’s hometown. The ingredients were simple, but they consumed a little oil.
Yu Bing washed a handful of onions and cut them into pieces. Then, she peeled open the skin of the white onions and broke them into pieces. Then, she heated the pot and poured oil into it. When the oil was heated, she poured the white onions onto the oil and spread them out evenly.
As the oil temperature increased, she added some clear water into the pot to lower the oil’s temperature. This way, she could fish the white onions out when they became crispier.
Then, she placed the green onions into the pot of oil and quickly moved them with her chopsticks to let them dissipate the water. Soon, the green onions looked like a combination of reddish-brown and dark green.
At this moment, two-thirds of the onion oil was poured out. Then, she continued to pour raw soy sauce into the pot to bring out the unique fragrance of the onions. Then, she added some sugar, a certain amount of water, and boiled it again. When the oil and sauce separated, it meant that the onion oil juice had been mixed evenly.
At this moment, she boiled the noodles. After the noodles were cooked, she fished them out and poured in the onion oil before mixing them evenly. There was some fried golden and crispy onion on the surface. The onion oil noodles were ready now.
Everyone had a big bowl. After Wang Yun and Song Li finished eating, they felt so stuffed that it was like their stomachs were about to explode.
Yu Bing prepared hawthorn tea for everyone. Only after eating and drinking her fill did Wang Yun remember her purpose for coming this time.
