Chapter 47
Turning over in a daze, Ye Tan was not there.The sky was already bright, and I squinted for a moment, remembering that I had something to do, so I hurriedly got up.First, he went around to Mr. Lu's room to ask about the condition of the injured. He found that there was no problem, and he could be sent back intact after a few days of recuperation. Finally he felt relieved, and then slipped to find Qiqi.
Qi Qi was indeed in the kitchen, chopping stuffing with a kitchen knife.Surprisingly, Ye Tan was there too, taking off his usual gloves and wristbands covered with lacquer ink, his cuffs were mostly rolled up, revealing a long and slender forearm, and was meeting.
"Master." Ye Tan withdrew his hand from the dough in embarrassment and rubbed against his waist.
"It's okay, you can continue to work on your work." I leaned over and took a look, "Ah Tan is also cooking today?"
Before Ye Tan could answer, Qi Qi complained first: "I'm going to be late, he came to help. I'm not to blame you for arguing all night last night, which made me not sleep well, and I got up late this morning." I poured the minced meat into a basin and sprinkled it with seasonings, then inserted a pair of chopsticks and handed it to me, "You came just in time, take it, and help me mix it well."
Ye Tan hurriedly said: "It's good to come down."
"Hey, you rub yours, let me play." I took the bamboo chopsticks in my arms and spun them quickly, "Is that so?"
"As you please." Qiqi gave me a contemptuous look.
Qiqi took a rolling pin and kneaded a ball, and I looked at it and asked, "That's right, Qiqi, today is the winter solstice, I don't know how to spend it? Do you want to prepare anything?"
Qi Qi patted the dough with a stick, frowned and said, "Isn't this already being done?"
I look at the minced meat in my hand, is this any different from the fried pot stickers I usually eat?
"It's a day off, and there will be sacrifices outside to pray for good weather in the coming year. Ordinary people will reunite with their relatives, make dumplings together, and give each other delicious food with friends and neighbors. In the evening, there will be a market and a temple fair." Qiqi sighed with hatred. , "The winter solstice is as big as a year, everyone comes to ask me, are you all stupid? How did you live to such a big age?"
I was feeling ashamed, and I heard Ye Tan stop me: "Miss Qiqi, don't offend the master."
Thinking about it, Ye Tan is the only one who regards me as the master, and there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority.Looking at other people, I didn't push my nose on my face because of stupidity, or he reminded me, I even forgot that I have this identity setting.
"Family make dumplings together?" I asked while stirring the stuffing.
Qi Qi rolled out the dough and replied, "Yes. There are more than a dozen people in an ordinary family, how can it be done by one person."
"Like we are now?" I asked again.
Ye Tan stopped moving, glanced at me, then lowered her hair and kneaded her face fiercely.
Qi Qi gave a rare smile: "Hey."
I saw Ye Tan rubbing it very vigorously suddenly, and asked, "Ah Tan, how did you spend the winter solstice before?"
Ye Tan lowered his head and continued: "The winter solstice of the night walk is the cross-field training. The three nines in winter and the three days in summer are the time to sharpen your endurance."
Me: "Endurance? How do you practice?"
Night Tan said: "Go to the desert in summer to expose yourself to the sun, and in winter to sit quietly in the snowy mountains and cold pools. There is no food supply, and you can't sleep."
I felt hard when I heard it: "I still have to soak in the water in winter? Isn't that very cold..."
Ye Tan said calmly: "It's okay. More people died in the desert in summer."
"..." I knew that the trial was cruel, and I heard it even more seriously, "Then you must really dislike the winter solstice..."
"Well, I didn't like it before." Ye Tan slowed down, raised his hand and brushed the hair on the side of his face behind his ears, and said softly, "Now I feel very good."
I thought of other things: "Qiqi, are you a native of Yangxi? If you miss home during the holidays, you can go back, you don't have to stay here."
Qiqi sneered: "It's all sold, whoever wants to go back, doesn't it have to be beaten for the holidays to be complete?"
I could hear her lost tone, she must have touched a bad past, and said guiltily, "Sorry."
Qi Qi looked back at me, and hurriedly said, "It's not about you, you... In fact, life has become much better since I came here, and I am very grateful. I know I have a bad temper, if..."
"I'm so hungry, do you have something to eat, Qiqi!!" A high-pitched voice overwhelmed Qiqi's lower and lower words, and in the next moment, Ye Suo stuck his head in from under the half-opened window to beg for food, and shrank back when he saw me , walked in from the main entrance and patted me on the shoulder: "Wow boss! Why are you here! Do you know! I dreamed about you last night!"
I said vigilantly: "Alright, what do you dream of me doing?"
"I don't want to dream of you either! I want to dream of the boss! Is it the boss!" Ye Xiao pulled at Ye Tan's shoulder, but was evaded, and lost his hand and continued, "Boss, I dreamed You hit me and said you would take me to a temple fair."
... this fool.
I said cautiously: "It's not a dream, I really went to call you in the middle of the night. Today is the winter solstice, and there is really a temple fair tonight, so we will go together at that time."
Ye Xiao pressed her chest in panic: "...Wow, I was still thinking that you would hit me in my dream too, but it was so annoying that I almost hit back with my backhand. Fortunately, I was too sleepy and didn't do it... Fortunately..."
... I think the education problem of night travel is very big, and the educational results are not good at all.
Ye Tan heard the words and slowly shifted his eyes to Ye Xiao's face, his eyes were so cold that ice balls seeped out.
Ye Xiao was so stared at that he gasped, and stammered: "Boss, I'm joking, don't take it seriously."
Night Tan: "Can you try joking again?"
Ye Tan's tone was extremely flat, without a trace of anger, but even I felt the chills stand on end.
Ye Xiao straightened her spine upright, and asked dryly, "My lord, is there any order that I need to follow?"
While continuing to stir the minced meat, I said: "Qiqi said that everyone should make dumplings together during the winter solstice, so please call Yelan over."
Ye Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "You want him to make dumplings... Isn't it just looking for trouble..."
"It's okay, the most important thing for a family is to be happy." I bathed him in a kindly light, "You can eat what he made."
Supper gave me back an indifferent smile as if parting from life and death: "Thank you, Lord Ron."
Called everyone and moved the stools to have a lively fun. After a while, after a quarter of an hour, except for Ye Tan, we were all driven out of the kitchen by Qiqi.
You may not believe it.
The dumplings I made are uglier than Yelan.
Supper desperately stuffed the stuffing, kneaded a dumpling into a steamed stuffed bun, the dough was broken and leaked.Yelan stared at Yexiao and wrapped a round one, and handed it to Yexiao for praise after wrapping it up.
Ye Xiao heavily educated him: "Don't imitate me, can't you learn something better, you learn from Qi Qi and the boss."
Ye Tan was as serious as he was when he was practicing calligraphy, fast and steady, the dumplings he kneaded were no different from Qiqi, the folds were beautifully folded, like finished products in a street shop, it was not at all obvious that he was learning to make them for the first time newbie.Yelan looked at it quietly for a while, and then made an ordinary dumpling that was barely readable.
And I can only wrap a dough ball. I think the dumpling skin, which always sticks together when it needs to be flattened, and can't be pinched when it is really kneaded, is really anti-human.
I suspect that Ye Xiao, who has a sworn enemy with me, has tampered with my dumpling wrapper.
Qi Qi looked at the row of lumps in front of us and lamented: "There are people who are worse than fools."
Ye Xiao and I have no fluctuations in our hearts, even a little desperate.
Both Ah Heng and Ah Shu wanted to go home for the winter solstice, and they left when they knew they could go back early in the morning. We were left in Yunyuan with a couple of disabled people who were not loved by our parents.
At noon, I forced a few shadow guards who usually hide in the shadow of the tree to eat together on the table. The dumplings that fell apart at night were made into a pot of soup. people eat.Others share normal dumplings. ...Well, Yelan's dumplings were lucky to be in the normal queue.
Seeing the pot full of mush in front of him, Ye Xiao was so happy that the corners of his eyes were moist.
Seeing him not moving, Yelan pushed her plate full of dumplings in front of him, motioning him to eat her own.
Ye Xiao rejected him bitterly: "This is my fate, you don't have to feel sorry for me." He raised his chopsticks tremblingly.
Ye Tan suddenly asked him in a low voice: "Can you give it to me?"
Ye Xiao looked at him stupidly, and I was also shocked: "Ah Tan, do you have a tendency to masochistic?"
Ye Tan bowed his head and stopped talking, stuffed a dumpling and chewed it quietly for a while, and couldn't help asking again: "Is it not possible?"
Ye Xiao scooped up a spoonful: "Boss and me, why are you being so polite, come here, give you the mush I cooked with my own hands."
Ye Tan frowned and said: "I don't want your squishy, give me a dumpling, the round one."
It turned out that he was doing it for this, and I immediately felt embarrassed: "I can't do it, I'll practice hard, and I'll do it for you after I learn it. Why bother today."
Ye Tan whispered: "This is very good."
I stopped a few more words, but suddenly remembered that there is a term in the tea ceremony called "one period and one meeting", which refers to the fate that is only once in a lifetime: the opportunity to sit and drink tea with someone may only be once in a lifetime, even if there is another Opportunity to meet with the same person, and the cup of tea you drink today will never be the same one you drank last time.
I always feel that these are trivial matters, and I never take them to heart, I'm afraid he doesn't think so.
Seeing Ye Tan cautiously inquiring, he suddenly couldn't bear it, patted his chopsticks and stood up: "Ah Tan, you wait."
He rushed to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves and carefully wrapped them up. He scraped a few of them, and gradually improved a little bit.
Ye Tan stopped eating, leaning against the door frame and watching me toss without saying a word.
I held up one and looked around: "Isn't this a bit similar? I'll try a few more and it should work."
Night Tan: "Yes."
Qiqi spat in the yard: "Hmph! I wrapped it so well! Don't eat obediently! Hypocritical!"
Ye Tan lowered his head in embarrassment when he heard the words, and I responded repeatedly: "Yes, I'm not being hypocritical."
