Chapter 21 Her face with tears

Wang Yong always felt that Guo Jia didn't choose to be a chef just because she was afraid of life. It was just that she didn't say it, and it was not easy to investigate.

"The time is almost the same, have some lunch!" Wang Yong simply changed the topic. The most common topic in the restaurant is eating.

"What the owner said... should be a cereal meal? At this time, the cereal meal has passed and the feeding has not arrived..." Guo Jia was a little confused. After all, it was only one pm now. According to custom, the afternoon meal was around four o'clock, and it was still a little early now. The cereal meal was around nine o'clock, which had already passed too much.

"I usually don't eat according to the standard food and feeding!" Wang Yong put the certificate in his hand on the counter, then walked towards the kitchen, and put the materials and kitchen utensils used for testing today.

While walking, he continued, "I usually eat morning food at Chen in the morning, and I will eat lunch after half of noon. I will eat lunch after half of You or half of You, but I usually call it dinner. I went to take the test today and came back a little late, but lunch at this time is OK! Besides, our job, how can we have the energy to work if we don't eat enough?"

"Then I'll help!" Guo Jia was not too surprised. After all, farmers and people with good living conditions also had three meals a day, but her family was poor, so she always abide by the two meals system.

"I don't really want to wait for fermentation..." Wang Yong looked at the bag containing flour and glanced at Guo Jia again, "If you want to consider pancakes, pots, buns or naan... Forget it, try to make that!"

Then he searched, measured some corn in the bag containing the corn, and then measured a small amount of black beans. These were not the parts of the public, but the parts that were paid to him before.

"Teaching you to make a staple food, called wagou!" Wang Yong said with a smile, then got up, put the measured corn on the stone mill, and started grinding. "After that, in fact, you can outsource the grinding matters directly... Let's talk about it later, who made me poor now!"

"There seems to be another stone mill. Do you want me to help?" Guo Jia looked at Wang Yong and began to grind the powder and asked carefully.

"That stone mill is relatively small, and I think it's not very efficient to grind... It's of course the best if you are willing to help grind it. But can you help grind the black beans there into bean powder? Try to grind it as fine as possible, after all, it will affect the taste!" Wang Yong nodded. After all, whether it is steamed buns or steamed buns, it will be uncomfortable to eat grainy.

"Okay... OK..." Guo Jia responded quickly and then began to try to push the stone mill. However, it was obviously just a small stone mill, and it was very difficult for her to turn it. Every turn seemed to be very hard.

"Why is it so weak?" Wang Yong couldn't help but frown. Women in this world have good physical fitness. Whether it is Xiahou Dun, Dian Wei, or even Cao Ren, his strength is not smaller than that of him. Fortunately, his strength is still growing.

He suspected that the birth rate of women in this era was too low, so women began to evolve, not only did they grow to 200 years old, but their adolescence also increased significantly. Their physical fitness was also improved, in order to be able to get pregnant and give birth longer, and not have difficulty in giving birth due to physical weakness.

"From the beginning of my birth, my health has been worse than others..." Guo Jia replied helplessly, "The doctor even said that I may not be suitable for marriage, at least I cannot have children, otherwise I will be in danger of life."

Is it congenital deficiency? I have to say that Guo Jia in this world is worse than that of Guo Jia in history. The latter died of illness only because of the discomfort of the local environment. It is considered an acquired problem. Guo Jia in this world is a congenital problem.

"Sorry..." Wang Yong originally planned to say 'that's pretty bad', but then he thought about it, and he was a little gloating. After thinking about it, he still said sorry.

"Nothing..." Guo Jia seemed to be used to it, "When I was studying in academy, I was ridiculed by many people. I have been used to it for so many years."

My thoughts instantly returned to the past. In that academy, when classmates were privately mocking her for being a woman in vain, a figure appeared beside her. She did not dislike her because of her congenital deficiencies, but was willing to make friends with her sincerely.

After graduation, she said she wanted to go to Yuan Shao's place to check, so she followed her. After joining Yuan Shao, she felt that this person was not enough to serve. After telling her, she actually took her out of Yuan Shao's camp and finally came to join Cao Cao, who was just starting out.

"I'll do it..." Wang Yong, who had ground corn, took away the remaining black beans and grind them.

Guo Jia's thoughts have returned to the present. Looking at the black beans that have not been reduced in the stone mill, I was immediately ashamed.

Originally, the steamed buns were to taste better, and they needed to add milk and sugar, but Wang Yong did not plan to add them. He just mixed the black bean powder and corn flour, added some yeast powder, and rubbed it with warm water. After a while, he took it out and rub it into a long strip, cut it into pieces with a knife, and then rub it into a cone shape with his hands, with a sunken bottom.

Then he turned around, picked up the finished product in his hand, looked at Guo Jia and signaled: "Do you understand?"

"Ah?" Guo Jia was suddenly asked and was a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, he understood, "Well, I understand!"

"Okay, come here to help and make more. I guess they will come to eat after going to the yamen! Even if you don't wait to go to the yamen, it's good to use it as a snack!" Wang Yong said with a smile. In some countries, there is also the habit of having afternoon tea and snacks at 3:00 in the afternoon.

"Okay!" Guo Jia nodded. He did plan to go to the study to help later and bring some to her.

The two of them started to work like this, from making to putting the trunk, and finally steaming it. After doing this, Wang Yongcai gently patted the steamer and said to Guo Jia: "This is also the cooking method I developed, called 'steaming', which means heating it with water vapor and cooking the ingredients. The dough will expand after absorbing water, and this temperature will also promote the reproduction of yeast, and the process releases carbon dioxide, making the dough more fluffy."

Having said that, steaming is another science. If you are too hot, you will accidentally scald the yeast to death and you will not be able to radiate the noodles in the end. Controlling the heat is also the key. If you use firewood, Wang Yong may have to explore it. Fortunately, there is a biogas stove that can regulate the fire.

In fact, there are still many problems in the use of biogas, which involve maintenance, waste treatment, gas use and other issues. There are fewer and fewer people using biogas in modern times. According to Wang Yong's opinion, it may be better to replace it with a honeycomb coal stove when necessary.

"A magical cooking method... but even if I know it, it's useless. I don't have the money to buy the right to use..." Guo Jia sighed a little, but at the same time he was a little helpless. She came from a poor family and didn't have that much money to buy the right to use skills.

"I haven't registered the skills of steaming and cooking. This thing brings, but a new cuisine, and the skills are exclusive to someone, is obviously not a good thing for other chefs. In the past, everyone likes to be self-consistent and keeps good recipes for themselves, so cooking has not developed rapidly. It is obvious that this era is the best period for cooking development." Wang Yong smiled, "Besides, chefs are competing with craftsmanship. Even if they are steamed buns, the taste is different."

"That..." Guo Jia thought for a moment and immediately plucked up the courage, "Can I try it, steam it?"

"Yes!" Wang Yong was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled, "There is a small steamer over there, you can try it."

"Thank you, thank you, the owner!" Guo Jia was extremely happy when he heard this and bowed solemnly. Then he picked up the small steamer, took out four steamed buns, put them in and started trying to steam.

About twenty minutes, Wang Yong felt that it was almost the same. After a simple confirmation, he said that he could get out the drawer.

"Okay, I'll try the taste first. You've been busy for a while, let's try one?" Wang Yong took out two steamed buns and gave one to Guo Jia.

Without adding milk and sugar, the taste is not strong enough. It is just a staple food, so there is no need to be so extravagant. Fill in some pickles in the notch at the back, and eat two or three more, and add a cup of soy milk to make it perfect. As for soy milk, of course it is black soy milk. Only with sugar added, Wang Yong will not treat himself badly if conditions permit.

"It's just the same!" Wang Yong took three, poured a cup of soy milk, and patted his stomach.

"I think it's very good!" However, this was the first time Guo Jia had eaten it. He thought it tasted very good, with the fragrance of corn and the fragrance of black beans. It was rare to be hungry. After two, I only had a cup of soy milk, and I felt a little overwhelmed.

"Then bring a few back and keep them in the pot to heat them up before eating." Wang Yong put four for her.

"That... I'll take the four I steamed back..." Guo Jia said shyly, as if he was afraid that Wang Yong would refuse.

"Yes!" Wang Yong thought about it, then nodded and agreed. He thought Guo Jia would decline because he was embarrassed, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to ask for it, which was somewhat inconsistent with her personality.

She got the four steamed buns steamed in the small steamer and wrapped them with lotus leaves. Guo Jia thanked him while leaving. As for the account, she said she would consider it carefully tonight and if conditions permit, she would try to help Wang Yong do it well.

After leaving a restaurant, Guo Jia quickly headed towards the yamen. Soon after, he came to the study. Seeing Xun Yu who was busy, he walked over with a smile: "Wenruo, see what delicious food I brought to you!"

"What are you still here for?" Xun Yu did not look up, but just asked coldly.

"Wen Ruo?" Guo Jia suddenly felt that Xun Yu was a little unfamiliar at this moment. "Try this steamed bun, which I steamed myself. Although the store owner takes the initiative to make it... I eat it while it is hot, and it tastes very good!"

"You are the chef, and you should be Wang Yong's subordinate! What you should go to is the store, not here! This is the study in the yamen, the place where we work, not what you should come here!" Xun Yu replied coldly.

"Wenruo, your actions today are so strange..." Guo Jia was a little panicked.

"Strange, maybe!" Xun Yu put down his pen, "How long are you planning to let me take care of you? From the past school days to the future, I was almost always taking care of you. You have become an adult and should study hard and be independent rather than continue to be by my side!"

"Wen Ruo..." Guo Jia was even more panicked. Why did Xun Yu become so strange? She was so strange that she was scared.

"Please leave here. This is not the place where you, an outsider, should come in!" Xun Yu pointed outside.

"Then... I'll keep this steamed bun here. Remember to eat it later..." Guo Jia put down the lotus leaves.

"Take it back!" Xun Yu slapped his sword, and the steamed bun fell to the ground with the lotus leaves. "It's office hours now!"

"I...I'll leave now..." Guo Jia could no longer bear it, so he turned around and left, and ran out.

"Is it necessary to be so decisive?" Cheng Yu sat aside and silently watched everything.

"If she really wants to follow the chef's path, I hope she can study harder. If she finds that she is not actually a chef's ingredient, maybe we will have an outstanding colleague." Xun Yu shook his head, stood up slowly, came to the ground, picked up the steamed buns scattered all over the floor, patted them one by one, put them on the lotus leaves, and then returned to his seat and slowly started eating, "It's delicious!"

"Besides, she should also seek a normal relationship!" Xun Yu shook his head. How could she not discover Guo Jia's relationship?

"Wooah..." Guo Jia, who left the study, rushed towards his room in the side courtyard with tears in his eyes. After closing the door, he immediately sat on the floor with his back to the door and started to cry.

P.S  Role Introduction

Guo Jia, whose name is Fengxiao, is named "Yuan"; a person from Yingchuan is actually 25 years old, with an appearance between 17 and 18 years old. Because of his poor health, he looks a little thin. However, his characteristics of women are normal, and he is also considered to be a type of bulging and curling back. He wears a pair of glasses most of the time. Although his eyes are enlarged, he also enlarges the feeling of weakness. His hair is combed in all kinds of flowers, and his skin is slightly sickly and fair.

She is shy and afraid of life. She may even be speechless in front of the first time meeting. The shadow of childhood makes her have a delusion of being bullied at any time. After all, the character's personality prototype is referenced to Takenaka Half-Weiwei in "Oda Nobuna's Ambition". The hidden characteristics - the characteristics of the diseased beauty are also.

Since childhood, he was a classmate with Xun Yu at Yingchuan Academy. Because Xun Yu protected her when he was young, he developed a friendship with her beyond friendship. Because Xun Yu loved food, he even became a chef after graduation. He actually felt a little regretful. By the way, if it was not set up like this, this girl probably wouldn't have a chance with the protagonist.
