On the Run from Famine, I Turn Galactic Trash into Gourmet Food

Interstellar garbage collector Chu Sangning transmigrates and becomes a “corpse” sold by her in-laws for two sacks of coarse rice. From the start, it’s hell mode: a widow who starved to death, two little burdens, and an entire village fleeing famine. Luckily, her interstellar storage device is packed with interstellar “garbage.” The surprise is that all this “garbage” can be turned into delicious food. “Mother, why does this cow-dung cake smell so good?” “This tree-root flour is so soft and chewy, even better than white-flour cakes.” “The juice from rock coconuts is even sweeter than honey.” While everyone else flees famine until they’re skin and bones, she keeps her kids well fed and happy. Granny Zhang is consumed with envy. “You unfilial daughter-in-law, hand over the food!” Chu Sangning pulls out some interstellar chili powder. “Here, there’s plenty to go around.” She somehow turns the journey to escape famine into a food-and-farming story.
