The origin of noodle paste?

Legend has it that the emergence of noodle paste is also related to the hard life. When Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he came to a small village called Luojia Village. At that time, there was a food shortage, and all the villagers were too poor to open the pot. For this reason, the villagers were so anxious that they couldn't think of anything to eat to entertain the emperor. Qianlong got off the sedan chair in front of a scholar's house, and everyone in the village was sweating for the scholar. The scholar's wife was so anxious that she found some leftover pig bones and fish fillets from previous years' harvests in the corner. After washing them, she put them in a pot and made a bowl of soup. She then went to the cupboard and swept out a handful of shredded noodles, a handful of cassava flour, and Then I made a bowl of noodle paste. After Qianlong ate it, he felt it tasted very delicious and immediately asked what the "dragon beard and pearl porridge" was made of. What a coincidence. The scholar's wife immediately answered boldly that this was an ancestral secret recipe, made from fine noodles and special refined sweet potato powder. The emperor rewarded this clever daughter-in-law greatly, and this noodle paste spread like this.
