Seeing that the scallion pancake was ready, 005 resisted the saliva that was about to flow out. “Yanyan, why don’t you look at the task bar to see if there’s progress?”
Mu Yan looked at 005 in puzzlement. The scallion pancake he made was without pepper. This should not be a complete ‘scallion pancake,’ right?
“It looks good, maybe the system will approve it?” 005 said by chance.
Mu Yan opened the system panel and looked at the task progress bar. There was no change at all. He was not surprised. After all, the scallion pancake was a little different from the recipe, but 005 was a little disappointed.
“It looks like we must stick to the recipe.” 005 sighed, it wasn’t their luck yet!
But then 005 thought of a question. “Yanyan, if you really want to stick to the recipe, then the flour can’t be replaced with nutritional powder, right?”
Mu Yan was taken aback when he heard the words because he hadn’t considered it.
“I’m not sure, but I haven’t found any wheat yet.” Mu Yan was slightly concerned.
If nutritious powder really couldn’t replace flour, then he must find wheat. If the amount of wheat he discovered was insufficient, he would have to cultivate it himself. The task’s completion time would then be indefinitely extended.
“Forget it; let’s try it after we’ve found the pepper. Perhaps it will be a success?” 005 stated with less certainty. The fluke had just been shattered, and it didn’t dare to remember it.
“Come and try the scallion pancake first, it won’t taste so good when it’s cold.” Mu Yan invited 005.
Take things slowly in the future. He wasn’t going to force it now; there was still plenty of time for him to find other ingredients. Who knows, maybe he’ll find wheat tomorrow.
Mu Yan was still upbeat and hopeful about the future.
005 was also a big-hearted system. One second it was worried, but the next second, only scallion pancakes were left in its eyes. After eating the scallion pancakes, only the scallion pancakes remained in its mind, and it could not remember anything else!
“Oh, it’s tasty and savory! Yanyan, the scallion pancakes are even better than the previous flatbread.” 005 couldn’t help but stretch its thumb in admiration as it kept stuffing the scallion pancakes into its small mouth.
Although Mu Yan didn’t see its little thumb buried by the fur, the things he did were recognized and praised, and it was always a pleasant thing.
“Ah Chen, try my new dish, scallion pancakes.” Mu Yan carried a small plate of chopped scallion pancakes and ran to Mu Chen’s side, looking at Mu Chen expectantly.

“Ah Chen, how is it?” Mu Yan asked again when he saw that Mu Chen was just tasting carefully and didn’t speak.
Despite receiving a positive compliment from 005, for some reason, he just wanted to get Ah Chen’s approval.
Mu Yan looked at him expectantly, making Mu Chen’s hard heart a soft mess, he stroked his soft hair with a big hand, with a gentle and doting smile on his lips. His voice was low and magnetic as he said, “This is very delicious.”
After getting the praise he wanted, Mu Yan was obviously happy and continued to ask, “Well, what do you think of using scallion pancakes as the first takeout on the stall?”
“The scallion pancakes are easy to make, delicious, and easy to sell. Good.” Mu Chen simply gave his reasons and support.
He saw that although the oil was extracted from the fat of animals, it was not difficult for him to hunt animals, so the amount of oil was not a problem.
Furthermore, he didn’t want Mumu to open a large stall and make a lot of scallion pancakes because it would be exhausting for him.
If Mumu wanted to make money, he should take on this task, not Mumu.
Mumu enjoyed cooking this type of food, and the reason he promised to open a stall was simply to make Mumu happy.
“That’s fantastic; once we find the pepper, we’ll be able to sell it officially.”
Mu Yan was overjoyed, and he couldn’t stop himself from turning around and holding Mu Chen’s arm. Mu Chen also excused him and let him hold it until he became dizzy.
With a helpless and doting smile, he laughed while holding the dizzy Mu Yan.
“Are you happy?” Mu Yan unconsciously influenced Mu Chen’s mood.
Although he couldn’t remember what kind of person he was before losing his memory, he knew that ‘it is easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one’s character’.
In fact, he didn’t like to talk and had a lot of expressions. He thought he was like this in the past, but now there was an exception.
When he was with Mumu, the corners of his lips rose unconsciously, and his face became more expressive. If he was seen by people he knew, they might be taken aback.
Perhaps it was his good fortune to land on a planet where no one recognized him.
He could be certain, however, that falling here and knowing Mumu were two of his luckiest things.
“Mm-hmm. In this way, more people will be able to eat scallion pancakes.” The task assigned by the system could also take the first step, and Mu Yan quietly added another sentence in his heart.
“You want everyone to eat these? Not afraid that they will learn it and won’t buy yours later?” Mu Chen joked, but this was not an impossible situation.
The more popular something became, the more people were envious of it, and the more people tried to imitate it. It was unavoidable, especially since these things couldn’t be patented on this backward planet.
But Mu Yan didn’t take it seriously and seemed to enjoy it. “It’s fine. If everyone can learn it, more people will be able to appreciate the value of food and taste its deliciousness.”
Mu Chen’s heart was touched again by Mu Yan’s bright smile; it was crisp and itchy, and he really wanted to go forward and take a bite.
Mu Yan was a thin, malnourished young man when he awoke. He was sixteen years old, but he appeared to be no older than a ten-year-old child.
After these days of conditioning, the dark yellow face of the other party had gradually become white, and the thin cheeks had some flesh, which made people want to pinch.
His appearance had also become more delicate. When combined with the bright smile that always hung on his face, it brightened his entire person and unconsciously drew people’s attention.
Mu Yan, as usual, gave half of the food he prepared to Lin Jiayu’s family. Lin Jiayu, on the other hand, was still concerned about the villagers’ rumors.
“Yanyan, you can completely ignore the words outside. Those people just get jealous about your food, don’t care about them. You have worked hard to find these things. We just provide you with accommodations for a few days. Don’t always take it to heart. Isn’t that treating us as outsiders?”
Lin Jiayu said earnestly, “I know you are a good boy, and you always think of us when you have something. But don’t you want to set up a stall? We will buy it at your stall, and you don’t have to bother to give it to us all the time.”
In this case, the villagers would have no reason to criticize Yanyan. Her family always accepted his kindness, which made them feel very sorry as well.
Mu Yan was a little anxious and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mu Chen.
“We know.” Mu Chen answered for Mu Yan, and then left with him.
“Why not? Is it because they don’t like me?” Mu Yan was perplexed, and his expression revealed an injury he was unaware of.
Mu Chen turned to face Mu Yan, looked into his eyes seriously, and said, “It’s not because you’re not good, they still like you very much. It’s because they don’t want to cause you trouble. Don’t take it to heart.”
Mu Chen was not very good at comforting people, but he still comforted Mu Yan in his own clumsy way.
Mu Yan himself was more optimistic. Since Mu Chen said that Aunt Lin did it for his own good, not because she didn’t like him, Mu Yan also let go of this matter. He planned to give more for Aunt Lin when he had a stall in the future.
Next, Mu Yan wholeheartedly went to the forest to find pepper. Since it was given in the recipe, it meant that pepper existed in this world. As long as pepper was found, the scallion pancake was basically complete.
With this goal in mind, when Mu Yan went to the forest, he would focus on plants that looked similar to peppers. However, after a few days, he found a few other ingredients, but peppers were nowhere to be seen.
“Where is the pepper?” Mu Yan felt a little down.
He couldn’t make scallion pancakes or upgrade without pepper. He couldn’t get the next recipe unless the system was upgraded. It’s really sad.
However, these few days had not been completely in vain. Because the appraisal skill had been used frequently, the proficiency progress bar was full, and the appraisal technique advanced to the first level. There were additional items that could be identified.
Mu Yan could not go to the forest every day to gather ingredients. After all, his physical strength as a ger was limited. Essentially, every time he went to the forest, he had to rest at home for a day and would not return until he regained his physical strength.
Mu Chen was exceptional. Even if he walked in the forest for three days and three nights, his strong and sturdy body would not tire.
As a result, when Mu Yan was at home resting, he would go to the forest by himself. He frequently brought back strange plants for Mu Yan to identify and see if there was anything edible in them.
Mu Chen used to bring back a bunch of plants with small particles that all looked like pepper. After all, Mu Yan’s favorite topic was pepper.
