Learning to play games, a 40-year-old woman achieves a remarkable turnaround.

Yuan Bao led Da Bai, who had just been summoned, to the kitchen.

Comparing myself to the standard of self-sufficiency, I wondered what was still missing in my space.

Now that the space has fields, medicinal herb fields, and aquatic products, she still feels that something is missing. What is it that is missing?

She then opened the shop to check out the spirit beasts and found that there was also a Candy Ghost responsible for raising poultry and livestock. In the living materials section, there were chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cows, sheep, and other animals that could be raised and purchased.

It seems that the poultry and livestock are the only things that haven't arrived yet. As she looked at the remaining 68 yuan, she shook her head helplessly, knowing that she wouldn't have any money to buy them today and would have to wait.

However, I still have quite a few points left. After upgrading, I have 4480 points remaining, and after upgrading my fishing skill, I have 4390 points remaining.

Yuan Baoya calculated in her mind that the maximum level for cooking skills was 70, and if she used points to directly reach the maximum level, it would cost a total of 2790 points. This put her in a dilemma; should she upgrade or not?

She glanced around and saw Little 9 still wolfing down her food, then suddenly slapped her forehead, realizing how silly she had been. Why didn't she just ask Little 9?

"Little 9, how many points will be needed for the next system upgrade?"

Little 9 was enjoying his meal when he heard Yuan Baoya's words. He quickly swallowed the grilled fish in his mouth and said, "The system needs 5000 points to upgrade again."

Yuan Baoya then asked, "If I go back to the Mysterious Cave to fight those low-level Poison Mist Spiders, can I still get a lot of points?"

Xiao 9 shook his head and said, "If we go to explore again, we won't get any more points from the spiders we've already defeated, but the system will still randomly drop equipment."

"I see. I currently have 4390 points. If I upgrade my cooking skill to the maximum level, I've calculated that it will cost 2790 points, leaving me with 1600 points. Do you think it's better to upgrade my cooking skill or save it to upgrade the system?"

Foodie Xiao 9 couldn't resist the temptation of this delicious food. While Yuan Baoya was asking him a question, he quickly picked up a few more bites of grilled fish and ate them with gusto. Only then did he hurriedly reply, "Upgrading my cooking skills is great, of course! That way, even more delicious food will be waiting for me!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Baoya realized she was on the same page as Xiao 9. Being a foodie herself, she couldn't help but chuckle and agree, saying, "Hehe, that's what I was thinking too. And since I've upgraded my cooking skill to the maximum level, does that mean I can make so many delicious dishes?"

“That’s a must!” Little 9’s eyes lit up as she looked at Yuan Bao with admiration and replied.

Yuan Baoya thought of something else and asked, "Also, Little 9, now that we can use the space between the two worlds, can I have Little White cook the dishes every day and sneak out to eat with my family at mealtimes?"

Little 9 licked its paws and said nonchalantly, "This works too. It's like making everything in advance and storing it there. You can just take it out whenever you need it."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Baoya was overjoyed and said, "Yes, that makes sense! Okay, then we must upgrade the cooking system. Nothing can stop us from enjoying delicious food!" Yuan Baoya was secretly delighted, thinking, "This is truly the cheat code I've always wanted."

Little 9 chimed in from the side, "Yes, yes, I wholeheartedly agree!"

The two foodies made the decision happily.

Yuan Baoya was decisive and swift, quickly leveling up her cooking skills to the maximum level.

Once the skill was maxed out, Yuan Baoya suddenly realized that the grilled fish she had just eaten tasted strange.

It turns out that the machine's control over the heat is not as good as a human's, which is why the taste is a little lacking.

"Hahaha~~ I'm so awesome now! I can eat top-notch delicacies every day from now on!" Yuan Baoya shouted excitedly.

However, she then thought that the game world was still set in the 90s, so she couldn't be too flamboyant. She had to keep a low profile and only occasionally show off her skills to let her parents and older brother see what she was capable of.

Yuan Baoya was incredibly smug.

"I'm not afraid of the real world anymore, hahaha~ Doesn't this mean I've achieved food freedom!" Yuan Baoya exclaimed, "This is the lifelong pursuit of so many people! None of my family understand!"

Since she acquired this cheat tool for the game system and space, she has been able to overtake others and get ahead.

She was secretly delighted, thinking that she would have the opportunity to show her family her culinary skills.

In the real world, she would make some exquisite delicacies whenever she felt like it, and her mother and Xiaozhi both said they were delicious after tasting them.

Now that my cooking skills are maxed out, and I have both space and a newbie, I need to prepare the daily menu in advance, because the food produced in my space is always of the highest quality.

In the game world, I'm still young, only 12 years old. I can slowly build up my image as a gourmet; there's no rush.

Just then, the little elf flew over happily, interrupting Yuan Baoya, who was still lost in thought.

Holding a meticulously crafted gift in its hand, it proudly proclaimed, "Master, this is a little accessory I made for you to enhance your luck. It's finally finished!" the little sprite exclaimed excitedly.

Yuan Baoya took the small accessory and examined it carefully.

The small accessory was a butterfly clip, exquisitely crafted, emitting a soft, gentle glow. It was also inlaid with a crystal-clear gemstone, which refracted colorful halos under the light, making it look quite magical.

"Little elf, thank you so much, this little accessory is so pretty." Yuan Baoya expressed her heartfelt gratitude.

"You're welcome, Master! This little accessory can be clipped to your hair or your clothes; it looks pretty both ways." The little elf explained to Yuan Bao how to use the accessory.

"Okay, okay! I'll put it on my head and show off for a bit." Then, she couldn't wait to put on the small accessory, and instantly felt as if she were surrounded by a lucky halo, as if she had the blessing of the goddess of fortune.

"How beautiful! Master, this accessory I made really suits you!" The little elf was quite proud of herself.

Yuan Baoya knew that with this little accessory, she would definitely encounter more surprises and opportunities in her future life and game adventures.

"Little elf, you've finished making the accessories for me. Are you leaving now?" Yuan Bao asked reluctantly, thinking that the little elf might be leaving.

“Master, once you free me from the sealed box, you will be my master. However, I have been sealed for too long, so I need to return to the Elf Kingdom first to check on the situation and let my people know that I am safe. I will come back to find you after that.”

"Okay, sure! Great! I'll wait for you! Just let me know if you need any help."

"Yes, I will. Master, I'll be going now. Wait for me, I'll be back as soon as possible." With that, the little elf flew away like a ray of light.

Yuan Baoya gazed in the direction the little elf had flown away, her heart filled with anticipation yet also a touch of disappointment. But she knew that many more exciting things awaited her in the future.
