Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife

Chapter 190 I Like A Blank Canvas

?

Scarlet meanwhile wagged her finger at the camera, "I am not revealing any more information, just watch and learn how I bake the cookies then you can bake them for your special people too. I am going to start with powdered sugar and butter. These are butter cookies so don't be stingy with the butter, that's why I am using four whole sticks in this recipe. Whisk this with a machine or hand and when it's soft like this, add two large eggs and two egg yolks. Add some vanilla extract and whisk it some more until it's smooth like this. Then you add your salt and flour, just like that you are done."

Justin bent his small head down and sniffed the dough.

"Not yet you greedy cat!!" Scarlet gently pushed Justin's head away. "The dough should be divided into four parts; in this one we add shredded coconut and roll all of our dough into small balls."

She had Justin help her press the balls into round flat cookie shapes and then she made other designs which looked like the Danish butter cookies from earth.

[Why does that one look like shit?] 

[Hahaha, is that a ribbon or a deuce?]

[I love the shapes, they are beautiful.]

"Sprinkle some sparkling sugar on the cookies and send them into the oven to bake for twelve to fifteen minutes at three hundred fifty degrees."

She opened another oven and pulled out two trays of finished cookies. "This is what you will have, perfect Danish butter cookies. Assistant chef Justin, will you do us the favor once again?"

"Yes, chef mummy." Justin nodded.

[Chef Mummy? Hahaha, Assistant chef Justin is not professional at all.]

[Please change your name to chef mummy.]

[I love you chef mummy.]

[Silver wolf has sent one hundred golden flying cars!!! What will poor fans do?"]

Assistant chef Justin took the first bite of the cookie, he chose the one with hoops which some people had said looked a ribbon.

"Is yummy mummy." He said with a mouth full of cookie.

[Can I be the special person to receive these please?]

[They are too sweet and I don't like too much sugar.]

That said, Scarlet was ready to end her live broadcast today, having been with her fans for more than two hours.

"Everyone, it's time to say goodbye now, the Danish butter cookies are now available on the online shop and so are these mother child chef outfits and aprons. We have even added a child's cooking equipment set for your children that might be interested in baking and cooking. Thank you for staying with me for than two hours, goodbye for now, Scarlet out."

Justin was not to be left behind, he waved at the cameras with an eager smile, "Justin out." He said in his small adorable voice.

Not only were the viewers blown away by him but Rodney and his crew that were monitoring the live broad cast were too.

"He is so adorable." Mr. Rodney's assistant whispered.

The cameras were deactivated as Scarlet packed cookies which she was giving away to everyone that had assisted her in this long but successful broadcast. When they left, they were all smiles, holding the cookie tins and containers with roasted potatoes tightly.

"I hope the governor does more long live broadcasts often." One camera man said. "I will stand for ten hours recording as long as she rewards us with goodies after the show."

"Right," his colleague said, "Your wife is the governor's diehard fan. I am sure she will squeal with glee when she sees the cookies."

"I hope she does not say something ridiculous like keep the cookies for special occasions. She does such things lately, saving things for future generations."

"In that case, you should eat a few cookies before your wife gets her hands on them. You know, in such times, I am happy that I do not have a wife yet. I eat all my good food alone."

"You also sleep alone, I win." his colleague replied.

Mr. Rodney too was dividing the cookies into two, what he would eat and what his son would eat.

"Do you have to hide food from your son?" Scarlet laughed at him, finding his behavior completely funny.

"My son has an appetite like Severus, if I don't separate our food he will eat and leave nothing but crumbs. I still don't understand what kind of 'growing boy' theory this is. He will eat me out of the house one day." Mr. Rodney spoke of the woes on feeding his son as if the boy was a pit that was never satisfied.

"He is a teenager that is bigger and taller than his father, he probably has a higher metabolism than yours. And he takes combat classes which consume a lot of energy, just teach him how to cook for himself." Scarlet proposed this because Mr. Rodney was a widow and a single father who was raising his son on his own. His wife had died under the claws of a mutated beast six years ago and he never remarried. However, he had raised his son Aaron quite well. The boy was responsible, ambitious, polite and very respectful.

"That's a good idea, thank you for the cookies. I should get going now, lots to do with the new channels receiving an influx of viewers thanks to you. Some people have already subscribed, you were right about women wanting a different kind of entertainment alternative to mecha fights. The movie channel already has three million female subscribers. We might hit fifty million in a month if the trend keeps up; I am going to have to recruit more actors and actresses for those telenovelas. You were right; I didn't need to spend millions on scripts or known actors and stresses. These D rated ones are doing a good job."

"It's all about exaggeration of emotions in the soaps. Never underestimate women's passion when it comes to such cliché dramas." Scarlet emphasized.

On earth, there was an entire channel dedicated to showing telenovelas all day, year after year. Here, they were not seen as worthy and considered stupid but who cared about worthiness. All people had to do was find someone to root for and a villain to hate. As long as the actors and actresses were passionate and good looking, the show would have many viewers.

"Do not forget to exaggerate the titles too; they must be named things like storm in paradise, Melisa's passion, the love of an angel." She even said the titles exaggeratedly, making Cecily roll her eyes at the actions of her grand daughter-in-law. Would people really watch these things she was mentioning?

"Then I am off, I will see you next time governor." Mr. Rodney left the castle.

Scarlet, Justin and Cecily were left together in the kitchen. Cecily and she did not have much of a personal relationship or anything really to discuss. Scarlet busied herself packing everything she was sending to Esong and gave it to a delivery drone.

She hummed, as she cleaned the kitchen which had already been cleaned by a robot butler, awkwardly waiting for Cecily to leave or someone to come in and say anything so that she could get the chance to escape.

"You know.." Cecily said and Scarlet raised her head so fast that she almost twisted her neck.

"What?" she asked.

"If you intend to join the division two fights, I was thinking about training you. I used to be a mecha fighter in the past and I was good at it so if you don't mind, I want to teach you. In division two you actually fight inside of mechas and I have not seen you in one ever. Do you lack the desire to learn or are you trained already?"

"I know nothing." Scarlet said sincerely.

"Good," Cecily replied, "I like a blank canvas."
