An idea flashed across Yuan Zhou's mind. He thought of one of the snacks in Cantonese Cuisine.
"Speaking of different tastes, I should go to Guangdong Province. It won't take long. One day should be enough." Yuan Zhou thought about his itinerary quickly.
Others didn't know what was going on in Yuan Zhou's mind, but Deng Xueli felt that she had solved a little obsession in her heart. She picked up the enamel cup again and drank up the slightly cold egg soup in one gulp. Then, she started to eat earnestly.
While eating, Deng Xueli didn't have time to think about anything else, because her mouth and mind were occupied by the extremely delicious food.
The extremely thinly sliced Steamed Cured Pork was held between the brown chopsticks. The fat part was so thin that it was translucent, while the lean part showed a beautiful rouge color. Every strand of meat texture was distinct.
As for the skin of the fat meat, it showed an amber gelatinous texture. As soon as she stuffed it into her mouth, the rich fragrance rushed straight down her throat.
The fragrance of the pork, the special marinating fragrance, and the refreshing fragrance of the wood. Not only was it not greasy at all, it wasn't very salty either.
The skin of the meat was slightly chewy and it tasted very fragrant when chewed. She stuffed a mouthful of sparkling white rice into her mouth. The fragrance of the rice and the light saltiness of the cured pork made Deng Xueli feel that she wouldn't get tired of eating two more bowls.
A mouthful of rice and a mouthful of cured pork, Deng Xueli ate very earnestly and enjoyed it very much. After filling up her stomach with food, her stomach also became peaceful and didn't hurt anymore.
That made Deng Xueli feel even more relaxed.
After finishing the meal, Deng Xueli let out a sigh of relief. She drank up half a cup of water and slowly peeled off the Flavor Removing Candy and ate it. Then, a smile appeared on her face.
"Thank you, Boss Yuan." After the breath in her mouth became fresh again, Deng Xueli stood up and bowed slightly to express her gratitude politely.
"You're welcome." Yuan Zhou set down the plate and answered.
Deng Xueli smiled and then turned around and left.
"Da Da Da", the sound of high-heeled shoes faded away faintly. When she walked to the intersection, Deng Xueli couldn't help looking back at the still bustling Taoxi Road. "Boss Yuan's craftsmanship is really good. No wonder there are so many good comments on the Internet."
As Deng Xueli finished her meal and left, lunchtime also came to an end. After Yuan Zhou, Zhou Jia, and Cheng Ying saw off the last customer, the restaurant became empty.
"You guys go back. Be careful on the road," Yuan Zhou said.
"Yes, Teacher's father (boss)," Zhou Jia and Cheng Ying said at the same time.
"Okay, go ahead." Yuan Zhou nodded.
Zhou Jia and Cheng Ying quickly turned around and left the shop. In the beginning, Cheng Ying always wanted to stay and help Yuan Zhou.
However, after being reminded by Engineer Cheng and Zhao Mei's father, she realized that it was Yuan Zhou's break time. It was better not to disturb her Teacher's father.
Nowadays, Cheng Ying would leave without hesitation every time the meal ended. She would only stay and ask if Yuan Zhou needed help if there was anything.
Once the two of them left, Yuan Zhou took off his face mask and rested for a while. Then, he started to cook the snacks again. Naturally, the snacks were prepared for Yin Ya, who came to drink wine every afternoon.
Recently, Yuan Zhou had been familiarizing himself with Cantonese cuisine, including Cantonese snacks. Therefore, Yuan Zhou prepared the Cantonese snacks that he was familiar with today to go with the liquor.
Today, the snacks prepared by Yuan Zhou were the famous Chicken Cake that wouldn't get hot and the Lotus Seed Mooncake.
The Chicken Cake was dry, fragrant, crispy, sweet, and salty while the Lotus Seed Mooncake had a sweet taste. It was also a good choice to go with the red wine today.
When Yin Ya arrived, two plates of snacks and a bottle of red wine had been prepared on the stone table.
"The snacks are very beautiful." Yin Ya noticed the small plate of Lotus Seed Mooncake at first sight.
The glittering and translucent crust and the pale yellow filling were shaped into wintersweet flowers, which looked very beautiful and exquisite.
"Cantonese snacks, Lotus Seed Mooncake," Yuan Zhou said.
"I've long heard that Cantonese snacks are as exquisite and delicious as Su snacks. You can even cook Cantonese snacks now?" Yin Ya looked at Yuan Zhou in surprise and asked.
"Of course. My learning ability is quite good." Yuan Zhou said lightly. In fact, he even straightened his back a little.
"Very good," Yin Ya said sincerely.
"Um, just average." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then gestured for Yin Ya to sit down.
"Recently, I accepted a translation job. It's an article about Spanish cuisine. I've asked if I can show it to others. Can I give you a copy after I finish translating it?" Yin Ya asked.
"Okay. Thank you." Yuan Zhou thanked her earnestly.
"You don't need to thank me," Yin Ya said.
"Okay. I won't mention it in the future." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and said straightforwardly.
"Um." Yin Ya blushed slightly and then picked up the wine glass.
"Try the snacks. They're not sweet and won't make you fat," Yuan Zhou said primly while looking at Yin Ya's waist without a trace.
Yin Ya was wearing a pair of high-waisted brown woolen trousers. She wore a beige shirt that reached her waist and a gray cashmere coat on the outside.
Although they were outdoors, the backyard of Yuan Zhou's pub wasn't cold at all. Therefore, Yin Ya took off the coat and only wore a shirt. Her waist looked very slim and should be less than 1.8 feet.
"Why is she not only not fat but also thin? It seems that I need to increase my nutrition." Yuan Zhou muttered inwardly. However, he frowned slightly. He knew that Yin Ya had been working overtime recently. After all, there were a lot of things to do at the end of the year.
Even so, Yin Ya still found time to come to the pub to drink. It was conceivable that his wine was very good. Thinking of that, Yuan Zhou glanced at Yin Ya's beautiful side profile and then continued to pour a little red wine into his glass with a gentle expression. Meanwhile, he pushed the plate towards Yin Ya.
Although Yuan Zhou secretly hoped that Yin Ya would gain weight, he was actually worried about her body. Therefore, he wanted her to eat more so that she would have more energy to work.
"I know you won't gain weight, right?" Yin Ya smiled and said.
"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded his head earnestly.
Then, they talked about some other topics and half an hour passed quickly. Yin Ya stood up and said, "I'm almost leaving."
"Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then said, "I'm going to Guangzhou tonight."
"Um. Ah?" Yin Ya nodded her head subconsciously. Then, she realized something was wrong and looked at Yuan Zhou with puzzlement.
"Because of some culinary matters," Yuan Zhou said.
"Okay. Be careful and pay attention to your safety," Yin Ya said.
Yin Ya originally wanted to ask the reason. However, when Yuan Zhou mentioned culinary skills, Yin Ya knew there was no need to ask. Yuan Zhou had always been rigorous and serious about culinary skills.
"I will. I'll go there tonight and come back in the morning. It won't take long." Yuan Zhou considered his itinerary for a while and then said earnestly.
Yuan Zhou blurted out the matter of going to Guangzhou subconsciously. He originally didn't intend to tell others. Just as he said, if he went there at night and came back in the morning, nobody would know. Besides, he was going there to verify a trivial matter.
Looking at Yin Ya's face, however, Yuan Zhou blurted it out subconsciously.
"Will you be very tired?" Yin Ya asked with a slightly worried expression.
"Don't worry. I can sleep on the plane." Yuan Zhou shook his head.
"Okay. You'll be flying at night. Pay attention to your safety," Yin Ya reminded him again.
"Okay." Yuan Zhou nodded his head earnestly.
