January 3rd, sunny and breezy.
As the last day of the New Year holiday, business at major restaurants, shopping malls and other entertainment venues across the country is always better than usual.
The business of Huangji Restaurant is also better than usual.
Qin Huai went back to rest early yesterday and wanted to adjust his work schedule, but his biological clock couldn't adjust after half a hour, so he couldn't get up late even if he wanted to.
Compared with the previous biological clock of getting up at 4 o'clock, the current schedule of going to work at 9:30 is directly different by several time zones.
Qin Huai woke up early in the morning and had nothing to do. He watched a variety show for more than ten minutes and found it boring. He also got tired of the cheese sticks in the refrigerator and wanted to eat two sweets.
After thinking about it, Qin Huai felt that it would be good to make breakfast at home.
Make Sixi glutinous rice balls.
Ouyang heard the noise in the kitchen and came out of the room with a chicken coop on his head. When he saw the blind box style Sixi dumplings boiling in the pot, his face turned green.
Ouyang has something to say about who has eaten the most Sixi Rice Balls with mint filling during this period.
Don't look at the glutinous rice dumplings that Qin Huai practiced in the kitchen in the afternoon that were divided by Huang Jihan's fearless people. That night, most of the glutinous rice dumplings that Qin Huai practiced at home ended up in Ouyang's stomach.
Ouyang sometimes felt that the small stove he went to the bone-setting shop to eat every night was the compensation given to him by Qin Huai.
"Qin Huai, what kind of flavor do you make..." Ouyang said cautiously.
"Normal taste, stuffed with shredded radish, no mint filling." Qin Huai stirred the dumplings in the pot, "Do you want to eat it or not? How many bowls will you eat?"
Ouyang felt relieved when Qin Huai said this, and immediately expressed his stance: "Two bowls!"
After a few minutes, the gnocchi will come out of the pan.
Qin Huai served an ordinary bowl and Ouyang served a large bowl. Both of them were very experienced and did not eat directly but chatted while waiting for the dumplings to cool down.
"Hui Hui will have a holiday the day after tomorrow, right?" Qin Huai said, "Have you rented Sister Hong's house for her?"
"It's rented." Ouyang held a spoon in his hand, which contained glutinous rice balls. He blew on it and said, "It's in the building at the back. Sister Hong likes to buy things, so I rented a three-bedroom apartment for her. I'll rent that house to her."
I’ve seen it, it’s a bit old, and the furniture is from 20 years ago. I discussed with Sister Hong and replaced it with a batch of new furniture, and I’ve been busy with it these days.”
"Huihui will finish her exam in the afternoon on the 5th, and Sister Hong and the others will be here on the 6th."
"Replace furniture?" Qin Huai was a little surprised, "That will cost a lot of money, right?"
"That's quite a lot." Ouyang nodded, "I went next door and asked Mr. Gong, and I got a full smart home that he recommended. Sister Hong planned to buy the house directly, but the owner seemed reluctant to sell it and was still negotiating.
"
Qin Huai:......
Renting for rich people is really confusing.
"So are you busy today?" Qin Huai asked next.
Ouyang blew it twice more and started eating. Fortunately, it was stuffed with meat, so there was no need to tap dance.
"No." Ouyang said vaguely, "I originally planned to go to Huangji for dinner today, but weren't you famous in that magazine? I definitely won't be able to eat. My dad still has a lot of money left for me. I
I plan to go to Guanhe Tower for a meal at noon."
"Anything happen this afternoon?"
"No."
"If it's convenient, come to Huangji after lunch. You may not know that Uncle Wang came to Suzhou yesterday..."
"I know." Ouyang chewed the remaining glutinous rice balls in one gulp, took out his mobile phone from his pajamas pocket, opened WeChat, and directly showed Qin Huai the over-the-top group chat.
[Yunzhong Community Owners Exchange Group]
Qin Huai:?
Does Yunzhong Community still have this group of owners? As the owner of the community, why didn't he know about it?
Qin Huai clicked on the group message and found that there were quite a few people in the group, most of whom were acquaintances. Xu Tuqiang, Uncle Wang, Uncle Qian, Grandma Ding were all there, and Chen Huihong was also there. Everyone was talking about air tickets, accommodation and hotels.
"Are Grandma Ding and the others going out in a group to play?" Qin Huai asked.
"We came here in a group." Ouyang pointed to the mobile phone, "I don't know who spread the false news, saying that you are attracted by Huang Ji's boss, and he wants to marry his daughter to you and let you inherit Huang Ji. You will soon
I will stay here in Gusu as my son-in-law and will not return to Yunzhong Canteen."
"I've never heard that Huang Anyao has sisters."
Qin Huai:......
Is this the point?!
"We organized a tour group to come to Suzhou just for this matter?" Qin Huai was shocked.
He found that he still didn't understand the owners of Yunzhong Community very well. No wonder he couldn't join this group of owners.
"Maybe you want to come over and play." Ouyang said that he didn't know why, "Gusu is also pretty good. Didn't Sister Hong bring Huihui over to play?"
Qin Huai was briefly convinced. After thinking for a while, he remembered that this was not what he wanted to say, and quickly brought the topic back.
"I went on to say that yesterday Uncle Wang came to Huangji to queue up to buy snacks and met Qu Jing. Huangji's business has been good recently, and Qu Jing was too embarrassed to ask me to jump in the queue to open a small stove, so she came over secretly during the holidays.
Queuing up to buy snacks.”
"Isn't there a new fruit today? Besides, Qu Jing has never eaten Sixi Rice Balls. Come over after lunch and help me deliver snacks to Qu Jing. Do you know the address of her hospital?"
"I know." Ouyang nodded, thought for a while, and asked, "Is the Sixi Rice Ball you gave Dr. Qu a serious rice ball?"
Qin Huai: "...I can make normal mince-filled dumplings!"
After eating, Qin Huai watched TV series for another half an hour. When it was almost time, he went out to Huangji.
It's rare to work so late, I'm not used to it.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the community, Qin Huai was stunned by the sight he saw in front of him.
The community where Qin Huai lives is opposite Huangji. It only takes 5 minutes to walk to work, which is very close.
Of course, there are actually closer communities. All of the communities near Huangji are old communities. Anyone who knows the old communities knows that these old communities are very concentrated and densely distributed. Some of them have no property management and are very loose. The gates are basically
Open all year round.
But this is not the reason why people queue up to enter other people’s residential areas!
Isn't it only 9:30 now?
It hasn't opened yet. Yesterday, at least, we waited in line after business hours to enter the community.
Qin Huai walked cautiously towards Huang Ji, and found that there was actually a guardrail for queuing at the entrance of Huang Ji, but there were too many people, and the first thing Qin Huai could see was outside the guardrail.
At the front of the queue were seven or eight college students who were clearly traveling together, both male and female, experienced and full of energy.
It was obvious that I had queued up as soon as I got off the high-speed train with my suitcase in hand. The smaller suitcase sat directly on the suitcase, while the larger suitcase came with its own folding bench. Gloves, hats, baby warmers and more were all available.
, also brought their own water and fruits, and enthusiastically distributed them to the young couples behind them who were obviously not that experienced and did not have enough equipment.
Qin Huai silently went in through the back door, changed clothes and went into the kitchen.
In the back kitchen, everyone was working enthusiastically. Even Zheng Da put on Huang Ji's work clothes for the first time and worked hard to knead the dough.
"Master Qin!" The first chef from Zhiweiju who saw Qin Huai quickly greeted him, "Have you had breakfast?"
"After eating, I cooked some Sixi dumplings at home in the morning." Qin Huai nodded and glanced at the Ruyi rolls, Sixi dumplings and carrot cakes placed in the insulator.
It seems that these snacks were specially made for him by the chefs at Zhiweiju.
Qin Huai changed the subject: "But I'm not completely full yet. You can eat a little more to fill your stomach."
The chef closest to the incubator hurriedly went to get snacks.
The chef at Zhiweiju, like Zheng Siyuan, only practices one or two dim sums in a period of time. Qin Huai doesn't even need to taste them, he only needs to look at them to know who made them.
Take a bite of the authentic Sixi dumplings first.
Well, not as good as myself.
"The combination is not good. The most important thing about Sixi Dumplings is the combination of ingredients. There should be no problem with these four ingredients, but the proportion is not right. Try more and practice more to get the right proportion. Also, chopped green onion is not suitable to be added."
Take another bite of the carrot cake.
generally.
"It's soft, oily, and can't be fried well. I haven't practiced the basic skills well. Practice it hard."
