Translator: 549690339
“Shua shua shua”
Yuan Zhou was busy in the kitchen, stirring quickly under his hand and mixing the newly ground glutinous rice flour with the ginger juice, honey and other things that had been prepared beforehand.
In the end, he cut it into the shape of small cubes. This was the famous ginger cake made by Yuan Zhou for boss Tong. The Chinese New Year had already passed for a while.
Boss Tong had originally planned to return to Taoxi road and stay there for about a month. But now, more than a month had passed. On one hand, it was because of Yuan Zhou’s persuasion to keep her here. After all, it was easier to take care of each other in the sa city. That was what Yuan Zhou thought.
On the other hand, the old man called mo Xiao ...
Today, aunt Tong had decided on the day to leave. Yuan Zhou could also hear the determination in her words and knew that she couldn’t stay any longer. Therefore, he prepared to order so local specialties for aunt Tong to take away.
After the ginger cake was ford, it could be left aside, stead, fried, or eaten directly. Both the taste and texture were suitable for older people, and the ginger juice inside had the effect of expelling cold.
The finished product was as white as snow, squarish, and fragrant. It was worthy of the reputation of the ‘Queen of Cakes’.
“This should be enough for Auntie Tong to eat for a while.” Looking at the ginger cakes on the countertop, Yuan Zhou was quite satisfied with his finished products.
“It’s almost ti. Aunt Tong should be here soon, right?” Yuan Zhou took a look at his phone and found it was almost 9:00.
Yuan Zhou didn’t have dinner with Yin ya today on purpose. One reason was that Yin ya had to work overti today, and the other reason was that she had an appointnt with boss Tong to bid her farewell and leave the day after tomorrow.
“Ta ta ta.”
“Little Yuan, why are you still busy? I told you that you could just eat anything. There’s no need to go through so much trouble.” When boss Tong entered the restaurant and saw Yuan Zhou still in the kitchen, she said directly.
......
“You must eat sothing good for a farewell. How can you be so casual? aunt Tong, you don’t have to be so polite.” Yuan Zhou said.
“You child.” Boss Tong also knew Yuan Zhou’s temper, so she didn’t say anything.
“I’ve prepared a gift for aunt Tong. Please don’t reject it. It’s a token of my appreciation. ” Yuan Zhou carried the dishes out and said.
“I’ll take your heart. ” Boss Tong agreed readily this ti.
“Are you really leaving the day after tomorrow? don’t you want to stay longer?” Yuan Zhou asked tentatively again.
“No need. I’ll go and take a look tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is just right.” Boss Tong obviously paused for a while and then said.
When Yuan Zhou heard that, he inexplicably thought of the tofu pudding restaurant and old man mo that he had gone to eat with boss Tong previously. He opened his mouth and wanted to ask, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
Boss Tong was very satisfied with the farewell banquet. Of course, Yuan Zhou’s cooking skills were also satisfactory.
After packing the things for boss Tong to take away, Yuan Zhou walked boss Tong out.
“Aunt Tong, what ti is the flight the day after tomorrow? I’ll send you to the airport.” Yuan Zhou asked again.
When he asked her previously, boss Tong had refused him directly and didn’t let Yuan Zhou deliver it to her.
“What’s there to send off for? it’s not like I’m not coming back. You can just co and pick up when the ti cos. You don’t have to send off.” Boss Tong waved her hand and said.
“Then please rember to co back for the new year this year. We can all celebrate it together.” Yuan Zhou said.
“I’ll co back when you get married. Otherwise, we’ll talk about it later. ” Boss Tong said with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
“Ahem. Aunt Tong, you must be careful.” Yuan Zhou felt that it was not right. He was already a man with a fiancée.
“You can go back. You don’t have to send off. It’s just this little thing. It’s no problem.” After waving Yuan Zhou who always wanted to see her off, boss Tong walked away in a few steps.
After seeing aunt Tong off on the street, Yuan Zhou returned to the restaurant and went to the pub to say hello to everyone. When he found there was nothing else, he directly went back to the second floor, intending to read so books and take a rest.
After all, although Yuan Zhou didn’t take part in the sports et physically these two days, he had worked hard both ntally and physically. He needed to take a rest.
Spring had arrived, and it was the ti for everything to recover. Thus, there were many early birds in the morning, and the chirping sounds of the birds made it seem particularly lively, unlike the depressed winter.
Boss Tong got up early in the morning. After having breakfast, she started to walk around in circles in the room, seemingly grinding the floor.
“Why don’t we ... Get little Yuan to go with us?” Boss Tong muttered and couldn’t make up her mind.
“Little Yuan is quite tired recently. I don’t want to trouble him. I’ll go by myself.” Finally, boss Tong gritted her teeth and made up her mind after spinning around for two hours.
When she ca to’ a tofu shop ‘again, boss Tong still felt very complicated. Actually, ever since Yuan Zhou accompanied her last ti, she had always wanted to co here, but she couldn’t make up her mind. She was going to leave tomorrow. In the end, she made up her mind and ca here.
This ti, mo Qian didn’t need to greet her, because he imdiately saw boss Tong’s figure when he stood at the door.
“What do you want to eat?” After holding it in for a long ti, he only managed to squeeze out four words.
“A bowl of tofu pudding.” Boss Tong was also very decisive and directly threw these four words at him.
The next step was to scoop and eat the tofu pudding. Then, boss Tong put the money on the table and planned to leave.
“I haven’t been here since the last ti. Is it because the tofu pudding doesn’t taste good?” Mo Xiao felt that she had finally found a topic to talk about.
“No, I’m leaving tomorrow, so I only ca here once.” Boss Tong didn’t answer the question directly and left in a hurry after saying that.
“You’re leaving again? No, this won’t do. ” This ti, it was mo Xiao’s turn to turn around.
“Where is lan lan going this ti?” Mo Yi hesitated for a long ti.
Yuan Zhou didn’t know what had happened here. After the breakfast ti, Yuan Zhou didn’t practice his knife skills like before. Instead, he went through the knowledge points of various cuisines.
In the afternoon, he was going to give his apprentices a test. He had to understand each person’s learning progress and level and answer questions according to different situations. As a master, he had to be rigorous. It was Yuan Zhou’s habit to prepare in advance.
After lunch ti, Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up and change his clothes. When he ca down, he saw Cheng zhaoi waiting for him in the restaurant.
“Master, I’m ready. Can we go now?” Cheng zhaoi imdiately went up to greet Yuan Zhou when she saw him coming down.
“Yes, let’s go.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and walked in front.
Master chef Restaurant wasn’t far from the Sichuan cuisine Association, so it didn’t take them much ti to get there.
Cheng zhaoi had arranged for the test to be held in a wide area with more than 20 stoves, which was enough for the entire sect.
A group of registered disciples were originally discussing among themselves. When they heard the footsteps, they imdiately stood apart and greeted Yuan Zhou and Cheng zhaoi when they found that they had indeed arrived.
“Good day, master!”
“Greetings, eldest senior brother!”
He shouted in a loud and clear voice.
“Yes, Hello, everyone.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said.
Cheng zhaoi followed closely to greet her junior brothers and sisters. The atmosphere was harmonious.
“Today, we’re here to test everyone’s skills and lay a foundation for the next lesson. Therefore, there’s no need for everyone to be nervous. Just do your best. Of course, if you have any new understanding recently, you can also add it in.” Yuan Zhou said while standing in front.
“Yes, Master.” The disciples replied in unison.
