Translator: 549690339
As Yuan Zhou had gotten the latest whereabouts of the suspected master GE, he didn’t choose to practice his cooking skills first after lunch time. Instead, he called Wen feizhi to inquire about the related matters and obtained more information. Moreover, under the recommendation of Wen feizhi, he got in touch with master GE.
“I can arrange to go in the next two days. There’s no need to rush, but master GE has a lecture abroad and will set off directly in gan. If I don’t go this time, I’ll have to wait for another half a month to a month. That’s too long.”
Yuan Zhou was considering whether he should ask for leave or not. He didn’t want to ask for leave, but the opportunity was hard to come by.
“We can think about this matter carefully.” Yuan Zhou made up his mind.
Two days passed quickly while Yuan Zhou was thinking about it. In the morning, after the breakfast time, Yin ya came over.
“What is blockhead doing?”
Yin ya came in from the back door. As soon as she entered the door, she saw that Yuan Zhou was actually in the small courtyard at this time, which made her very curious.
And there was a pile of dirt in front of him?
“Are you trying to recall your childhood?” Yin ya muttered inwardly.
It was mainly because in her heart, those little boys would only be interested in playing with mud when they were young. She had never heard of any boys who liked to play with mud when they grew up.
…
“I’ll familiarize myself with the making of black pottery first. We’ll have something to talk about when I meet master GE. ” Yuan Zhou didn’t come over to pull Yin ya up as his hands were still covered with mud.
Only then did Yin ya remember that Yuan Zhou had told her two days ago that he planned to go out for a while. First of all, he was going to visit master GE and master ju, and then the matter that she had helped him with.
“Then you should rest more and don’t tire yourself out.” Yin ya pursed her lips and said.
“Don’t worry, I’m just practicing on my own now. I don’t need to spend much time. ” While Yuan Zhou said that, he didn’t stop the movements of his hands.
“Pa pa pa”
The wet mud fell to the ground and slowly stuck together. The shape of the mud could be seen, and it was no longer a pile of mud.
The clay was the red clay used to make black pottery that Yuan Zhou had specially asked his disciple from Yunnan Province, li Youwei, to send to them. The color of the clay was a little dark after adding water.
When li Youwei and the others received Yuan Zhou’s phone call, they were simply too excited. Usually, it was their master who helped them when they needed help. Now that they finally had the opportunity to help their master, they naturally wanted to put in more effort. Therefore, they sent two sacks of soil alone and several pieces of locally-made black pottery for reference. It could be said that they were quite well prepared.
Moreover, there was also a text description, which was the content of the conversation between li Youwei and the local black pottery maker. It included some daily crafting skills. Of course, there were no advanced skills, but for a newbie like Yuan Zhou, it was still quite practical.
“Little ya, wait a moment. I’ll make up with you soon.” Yuan Zhou said.
It was Yuan Zhou’s first time trying it today. The soil had just arrived in the morning and Yin ya happened to catch up with it.
In addition, after the shape of the soil was formed, it would need to be left there for a long time, so he could do something else.
In less than five minutes, Yuan Zhou was done. After washing his hands, he went to the kitchen and brought out two plates of desserts, intending to add more food for Yin ya.
It wasn’t that Yuan Zhou had predicted that Yin ya would come at this time, but rather that he had prepared it for her as a midnight snack. She could eat it now and then cook it again in the evening.
Today, Yuan Zhou prepared the ordinary Begonia desserts and osmanthus cake. Different from the ordinary osmanthus cake, the osmanthus cake made by Yuan Zhou was steamed. The starry yellow Osmanthus on the surface and the snow-white color looked very nice.
Not to mention the beautiful, simple, and exquisite Begonia crisps that looked like real begonia flowers in full bloom. It seemed to bring Yin ya back to the small courtyard in April or may. At that time, the begonia flowers in the courtyard were in full bloom and were very beautiful. Especially when a gust of wind blew past, some petals would fall down. Although it was not as beautiful as the cherry blossoms, it was still a very beautiful scene.
She sat by the stone table in the small courtyard and placed a cup of boiling water on it. When the Begonia flower petals fell, they would naturally fall into the cup. It was the ready-made Begonia flower tea, both poetic and full of sentiment. When matched with the snacks made by Yuan Zhou, Yin ya felt that even if she gained two pounds, she could still eat a few more pieces.
The flowers had long since fallen, and the branches were filled with Begonia fruits. One by one, they were about to ripen, which was particularly pleasing.
“Blockhead, why are there more snacks?” Yin ya pouted her mouth subconsciously.
She couldn’t help but want to pinch her waist. She felt that if this dress was a little too tight today, it would definitely be the fault of these snacks.
“This is a new product I made. Can you give it a try?” Yuan Zhou said quite earnestly.
“Alright, I’ll help you taste it.” Yin ya said reluctantly.
It was mainly because the fragrance had been lingering around the tip of her nose. Yin ya, who had not been able to resist it strongly in the first place, couldn’t even resist the temptation and could only agree to it like every time.
Picking up the chopsticks beside her, Yin ya chose the beautiful Begonia flower first. Even the folds of the petals were clearly visible on the top. The crunchy parts at the edge could be vaguely seen. Only then did she know that it was deep-fried.
The color was rice white, with a light red pistil in the middle. With a bite, the degree of crispness could be heard with a ‘Kacha’ sound. The originally crisp and fragrant taste became a little sticky because of the addition of saliva. On the tip of the tongue, he tasted a little Begonia, as if an entire Begonia had bloomed in his mouth.
“Blockhead, this doesn’t seem to be stuffed with bean paste?” Yin ya tilted her head and looked at Yuan Zhou.
Normally, Begonia desserts were filled with bean paste filling. Therefore, many people would find it a little greasy, deep-fried, and with bean paste filling. However, this was definitely not the case for Yuan Zhou’s Begonia desserts. On the contrary, it was very delicious. However, it was the first time that Begonia desserts bloomed in the mouth.
“I’ve got Begonia jam inside. How do you feel eating it?” Yuan Zhou asked.
“It’s delicious. Sweet but not greasy. It’s crispy, fragrant, and loose. It’s great. ” While speaking, Yin ya reached out her chopsticks to pick up the second piece.
As for the warning that he had told himself to only eat one piece before eating, he had long forgotten about it.
“Oh, by the way, blockhead, this is the information I found in gan province. There are two restaurants that meet your requirements, and they are very close to Jingde town. I think they’re not bad. You can take a look.” Yin ya suddenly thought of something and directly took out a document from her handbag and handed it to Yuan Zhou.
On the paper were Yin ya’s results of the past two days. After careful selection, Yuan Zhou didn’t have to spend time to look for her when he arrived at the place.
Of course, Yin ya definitely didn’t just find the information on the internet. Instead, she contacted her friends over there personally and asked them to do an on-site investigation first. After preliminary screening, she gave her the name list. Then, Yin ya contacted the restaurant and judged the situation according to the conversation. Finally, she selected two restaurants.
Of course, Yin ya didn’t intend to tell Yuan Zhou how many favors she had done, how much effort she had put in and how much energy she had spent to select the most suitable restaurant.
Even if Yin ya didn’t say it, Yuan Zhou still knew that she had spent a lot of time on it after looking through the detailed information.
