"Little Ya has a good taste in choosing things." Yuan Zhou took Yin Ya's hand and walked to the stone table.
He planned to have mutton soup in the yard, but it hadn't been served yet. He planned to celebrate the festival with Yin Ya after all the drinkers went upstairs.
"Let's eat here later. I've prepared a mutton soup pot. It's just nice to warm up. And I'll make some mutton dumplings. What do you think?" Yuan Zhou asked in a low voice.
"It's pretty good. Eating dumplings and mutton soup on the Winter Solstice Festival is very appropriate." Yin Ya nodded with a smile on her face. Obviously, she was in a good mood.
"Let's go upstairs and have a look at my gift for you," said Yuan Zhou.
"Okay." Yin Ya nodded in agreement.
Yuan Zhou's gift for Yin Ya this time was still made by himself. Last time, he saw that she especially liked to eat the cherry blossom dish, so Yuan Zhou carved a wooden hairpin in the shape of a cherry blossom.
The reason why the gift was still a wooden hairpin was that Yuan Zhou knew that girls needed all kinds of headwear. Then, Yuan Zhou wanted to collect all 12 types of wooden hairpins from the Flower Fairy series for Yin Ya.
In the future, Yin Ya could only use the headwear he made. That was what Yuan Zhou thought.
His eyes turned to the wooden hairpin in Yin Ya's hand. There were six cherry blossoms at the top of the hairpin. There were two layers of three cherry blossoms in each layer. They were stacked together and looked very beautiful. The body of the hairpin was uneven, and some tree trunk lines were carefully engraved on it. It looked like a complete cherry blossom.
There was also a faint fragrance, like the smell of cherry blossoms. Yin Ya liked it very much. She combed her hair again on the spot, coiled it up, and inserted the cherry blossom hairpin. It matched the apricot yellow dress she was wearing today very well.
"How is it? Does it look good?" asked Yin Ya.
"Very good." Yuan Zhou nodded.
The time interval between dinner and the pub was very short, so Mao Ye arrived very quickly. After settling down the customers and sending the sobering meal over, Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya began to move the pots and other things into the courtyard.
At this moment, Wuhai's voice could be heard before he arrived.
"Compass, Compass, look at what I've brought for you." Wuhai's voice was as loud as a loudspeaker.
One second ago, it was still a voice, but the next second, he appeared in the restaurant with an extremely happy smile on his face. It was unclear whether he was happy because of the festival or because he was about to eat again.
Behind them, Zhou Xi and Zheng Jiawei carried a goat that had been slaughtered and skinned.
Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya looked at Jiang Changxi and Fang Heng, who were following closely behind them. Wu Yungui was a little dumbfounded. Why were there so many people?
"Hahaha, I'm smart, aren't I? I asked these people to accompany you to celebrate the Winter Solstice." Wuhai immediately began to boast.
"…" Yuan Zhou also felt like dying in his heart. He even wanted to die, but he still appeared calm on the surface.
"Little Ya is here too. This is a world of just the two of us. We can't celebrate it together." Jiang Changxi smiled and squinted her eyes. As a smart person, Queen Jiang instantly understood what was going on.
Jiang Changxi had not been to the restaurant for a long time due to her busy work at the end of the year. Coincidentally, it was the Winter Solstice today. Wuhai called in the group chat to deliver a goat to Yuan Zhou tonight and have a bowl of mutton soup.
"Happy holidays. Let's celebrate the Winter Solstice together," said Yin Ya with a smile.
Although it was a pity that she could not celebrate the festival with Blockhead, it was not bad to celebrate it with everyone.
"Hahaha, it's just a coincidence. I just returned to Chengdu today and managed to make it in time. I must eat Boss Yuan's mutton soup." Wu Yungui was also very happy.
"Boss Yuan, sorry to disturb you." Zheng Jiawei also did not expect Yuan Zhou to be on a date.
"It's fine. Let's celebrate together," replied Yuan Zhou.
The Winter Solstice was cold, but it became hot and noisy with more people.
"Pass the goat to me. I'll handle it. You guys go and take a seat first." Yuan Zhou took the goat with both hands and entered the kitchen. It was quite heavy. If not for his frequent training, he would not have been able to move it alone.
He had prepared enough food for two previously. Now that there were five more people, he had to prepare more food. He also needed a bigger pot.
Yin Ya led Wuhai and the others to the small courtyard. They found benches and sat down, chatting. Of course, only Yin Ya, Jiang Changxi, Wu Yungui, Zheng Jiawei, and Zhou Xi were chatting. Wuhai was not there.
Wuhai was at the entrance of the kitchen. He did not go in, but just squatted at the door, waiting to eat.
The speed was very fast. The key was that the mutton soup had been prepared beforehand.
Yuan Zhou carried a huge pot out. Wuhai began to follow him into the courtyard step by step. He was almost drooling.
It seemed that it had only been a few hours since dinner. Wuhai had only finished a table full of dishes. He did not know why he felt as if he had not eaten for a day.
At this time, The Kitchen God was very lively. A group of drinkers were drinking and chatting on the second floor, while a group of people were drinking soup and eating meat in the courtyard.
Although it was difficult for seven people to eat one mutton, with Wuhai around, it was not difficult at all.
After eating the meat, they cooked some white radish and put the dumplings into the mutton soup. The chubby dumplings were ready to be eaten when they floated up. Anyway, this was Wuhai's standard.
He ate one dumpling at a time. Cabbage, pork, beef, celery, and mutton soup were all delicious.
Of course, only Wuhai could eat one dumpling at a time. Ordinary people could not do that.
Wu Yungui had a new way of eating dumplings. He first took a small bite and then put the dumplings into the bowl to soak. The main purpose of doing this was to let the mutton soup enter the dumplings.
Then, he ate it with the soup.
"Um, um, um." Wu Yungui nodded while eating. This was the enjoyment of the Winter Solstice.
Fang Heng said, "This is the first time I ate mutton soup in The Kitchen God."
"In the future, I will sell mutton soup in the Winter Solstice," said Yuan Zhou. The Kitchen God also needed to evolve.
They all had a good meal tonight. Most importantly, Wuhai had brought its own ingredients, so they were absolutely full.
After finishing the mutton soup, the companions went back to their own homes. Then, Yuan Zhou sent Yin Ya home.
At noon the next day, the chief queuing position of Wuhai was almost snatched away again. The person who almost got it was a young man.
Yesterday, it was Wan and Chen Wei. Today, it was another young man. Wuhai felt that there were always unruly people who wanted to harm him.
The young man's name was Xu Du. He was dressed very casually and wore a pair of glasses. He looked very cultured and had a small face. He looked like a well-behaved boy.
In fact, Xu Du was just a baby-faced boy. He was 27 years old and had been working for several years after graduation.
Speaking of which, Yuan Zhou knew this person. He had been to the restaurant several times before, but only once every two or three months. Of course, he was quite talkative and was quite familiar with Wu Zhou and Zhao YIngjun.
Today, the young man had invited Wu Zhou here for a meal. However, Wu Zhou still didn't tidy up. They had agreed that he could enter the restaurant after the first or second round, but when Wu Zhou arrived, he almost couldn't even make it to the last round.
"Hey Hey. Luckily, I got it." Wu Zhou felt that he was lucky.
What else could Xu Du say? He could only nod his head.
