Yabemiya opened his eyes and exclaimed, "Is this really a roast duck? I don't smell any rank odor. The crispy duck skin and the smooth duck meat don't seem to belong to the same duck at all. This taste is simply unbelievable. "
"Then let me try to wrap the duck in a lotus leaf cake." Sally carefully picked up a lotus leaf cake from the small bamboo plate. It was as thin as a piece of paper and almost translucent. It looked like a lotus leaf when it was spread open. It was very beautiful and even a little warm to the touch.
"Can this thin pancake really cover the roast duck and the side dishes?" Sally was a little worried. She was afraid that she would break the cake if she didn't sprinkle enough. She carefully spread the cake on the plate in front of her. Then, she picked up a piece of roast duck and dipped it in the sweet sauce. She then picked up two green onions and two cucumbers and placed them on top of the roast duck meat. After that, she carefully folded the cake from the four sides to the center and turned it into a plump cube.
Sally picked up the lotus leaf pancake that was wrapped around the duck meat with a look of surprise in her eyes. This thin lotus leaf pancake had incredible tenacity, and it didn't show any signs of damage even after wrapping so many things around it.
"It's perfectly wrapped. It's the most delicious one piece at a time," Meg said with a smile as he looked at the roast duck wrapped in the lotus leaf cake in Sally's hand.
Sally hesitated for a moment after hearing that. Then, she put the duck meat wrapped in the lotus leaf cake that was a little too big into her mouth.
The soft skin had a hint of fragrance. After biting into it, the roast duck hidden in the lotus leaf cake began to show its charm. The crispy duck skin and tender duck meat melted in the mouth at the same time, and the rich fragrance spread in the mouth. The more he chewed, the more obvious the fragrance became.
The taste buds on the tip of her tongue were completely activated. She greedily sucked on the delicious taste.
The green onions were bitten open, and the sweet sauce enhanced the fragrance of the duck meat, making it even more alluring.
After the deliciousness wreaked havoc, the cucumber strips that had been almost ignored before began to show their charm. The fresh cucumber made a light crunching sound when bitten, and the trace of greasiness brought about by the sweet sauce and roast duck was completely eliminated. After swallowing it, only a lingering fragrance lingered in the mouth, and it was incomparably refreshing.
Sally savored the aftertaste for a while before looking up at Mag. "What a special flavor. The biscuit is as thin as paper, the delicious roast duck is slightly piping hot, and the fresh onions and cucumber are all very different things. However, the combination is irresistible, and it's not greasy at all."
"Mm-hm, roast duck is so delicious …" Amy mumbled. She then turned to Ugly Duckling, who was lying on the table and looking at them with curiosity in its eyes. She smiled, and said, "Ugly Duckling, you have to grow up quickly too."
"Meow!"
Ugly Duckling felt a chill run down its neck, and it instinctively took a few steps back. It stepped on the edge of the counter, and fell off with a thump, drawing raucous laughter from everyone.
The delicious roast duck brought unparalleled enjoyment and laughter to the crowd.
Meg also picked up a piece of roast duck and carefully tasted it. The flavor, meat, texture, and thickness of the roast duck were all perfect. It was far superior to the Peking Roast Duck that he had eaten in Quanjude when he was a child.
The roasting technique used on the charcoal allowed the aroma of the fruit to seep into the duck meat perfectly. There wasn't a need for too many condiments, and the meat of the roast duck was far superior to that of the Peking Roast Duck that had been reared in captivity.
Meg swallowed the piece of duck meat, and sighed with emotion. "Ducks are fat in autumn; the ancients really didn't lie to me."
Ducks that had just finished growing fat in autumn were at their most plump.
Phyllis was a little perplexed as she ate the roast duck. Why does this duck taste so familiar? Have I eaten it before?
There were six of them, one roast duck, and two plates of lotus leaf pancakes. It was obviously not enough. Hence, halfway through the meal, Mag went into the kitchen to make some food that could fill their stomachs, and that was the end of the lunch.
After lunch, Yabemiya had already left with a plate of Yangzhou fried rice, and so had Barbara. Phyllis was still roasting beef kebabs in the kitchen. Meg looked at Sally, who was using water magic to clean the restaurant, and hesitantly said, "Aisha, there's something I want to ask of you."
"Hmm? What is it? "Sally turned to Meg.
"Er … This request might be a little too much, and it's also a little unreasonable. You can refuse; there's no need to force yourself." A slightly awkward expression appeared on Meg's face.
"Hmm? Boss, just say it. If it's within my ability, I'll try my best. "Sally looked at Meg in confusion. This was the first time she had seen Meg so shy.
"It's … Amy needs to attend a parent-teacher conference at school, and the school wants both parents of the child to be present. I want to ask you … to be Amy's mother." Meg wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. Although he had practiced this conversation many times in his mind, he still felt very awkward when he actually said it to a girl.
"Huh?" Sally faltered upon hearing this, and a faint blush appeared on her face as if she had suddenly realized something. Even her normally calm gaze was now tinged with a hint of panic.
"It's not what you think. I just want you to pretend to be Amy's mother and attend the parent-teacher conference with me. Of course, if you don't think it's suitable, then forget it. This request is a little too much." Meg shrugged and tried to speak in a relaxed tone.
Sally looked into Meg's eyes and thought of how much he doted on Amy. Her heart suddenly softened. She hesitated for a moment, then clenched her fist and said, "If you think I'm suitable, I can do it. But what do you need me to do?"
"Really?" Mag's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing that. The most suitable person for him right now was none other than Sally. If she didn't agree, then he would have to make a trip to the job market to rent a wife.
"Hmm." Sally nodded again.
Meg thought for a moment and frowned. "It's my first time attending a parent-teacher conference, so I don't have much experience. But I should just go through the motions. After all, we're all children, so it shouldn't be too complicated. I'll ask them about the details later."
"Okay." Sally nodded slightly and moved her gaze away from Meg. Her fingertips moved gently, and a thin stream of water slid through the leaves of the green plants, cleaning all the dust on their surface. However, her gaze was a little unfocused.
…
In the evening, there was a long line outside the restaurant.
"Did you hear? Mr. Mak is going to release a new dish tonight: Peking Duck! "
