Chapter 245
It was not until after class that Wu Yin realized that the strange-shaped candy was actually Mianmian’s first handicraft.
"I want to learn how to make snacks from my mom~" the child shared with her excitedly: "I want to make candies, preserved fruits, cookies, small cakes and many, many snacks!"
Whether he can do it or not is another matter, but Yunmian believes that he must fully participate!
So as soon as she got out of school, she enthusiastically invited her three sisters to the store to make snacks together.
"Mianmian, you guys go ahead." Li Zhaozhao smiled and touched his sister's head: "I have other classes after school. I'm sorry I can't go with you."
Hearing this, Yun Mianmian tilted her head to think for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay then! When I'm done, I'll put it in my schoolbag and bring it to you at school!"
"Okay, thank you Mianmian, I will definitely enjoy it." After Li Zhaozhao said this, he took out a small clay doll that he had bought at some unknown time and placed it in his sister's white and tender hand. Then he waved to the three children, turned around and walked out of the school gate first.
"What is this?" Yun Mian carefully picked up the clay doll, her eyes wide open with surprise and curiosity: "It's so small and cute~"
Although the little doll was not furry, it looked as cute as a kitten. Yunmian held it up and said thank you loudly and happily to Sister Zhaozhao's back, then she and her other two sisters carried the doll all the way back to the hotel.
Since the parents knew that the children would basically walk together after school, sometimes they would not come to the school gate to pick up the children because they were too busy at work. But more often, Yun Jinyan and He Xiaoyan would agree to pick up the children once a day. As the relationship between the two families became closer, they would even bring the children back to their own homes for meals and sleep.
After all, it’s the same to take care of one kid, or two or three, and it can make the other one a little easier.
Yunmian returned to the restaurant holding the little doll given by Sister Zhaozhao, and couldn't wait to run into the kitchen to show off her new gift to her mother.
"This was given to me by Sister Zhao Zhao~"
The child held the doll up and placed it next to his cheek. With his curved eyebrows and eyes, he looked somewhat similar to the doll.
The clay doll looks like a smaller version of Mianmian.
"She is thoughtful." Yun Jinyan smiled and took the doll to compare it with her daughter, and said softly: "Since you have accepted your sister's gift, has Mianmian thought about what gift to give her sister?"
Yunmian: “…”
My thoughts are stuck.
He Fang and Wu Yin stared at the little baby and began to think about what gift they could give to little sister Mianmian that would make her just as happy.
Damn it, Li Zhaozhao got there first!
"Can I give my sister lots of snacks?" The child asked his mother shyly, "Can you teach me? I will study hard."
Yun Jinyan readily agreed and even prepared a lot of ingredients when her daughter first learned to make candy. Now it is more than enough for the three children to spend.
So the diners in the Yunduo Restaurant soon discovered that the small dining table seemed a bit crowded and messy today.
In the past, there was only one child, Mianmian, sitting there obediently and eating live, but today is different, today there are three!
Moreover, the three children are all cute and have their own characteristics. They all have the same pigtails, and even the small hairpins on their heads are exactly the same, as if they were copied and pasted into three sizes of big, medium and small.
And today they didn't perform the puppy eating show, but instead piled a lot of things on the table, each with their head tilted, tinkering with something seriously.
Yunmian tried to make lollipops yesterday. Although Sister Ayin put them in her bag and said she would keep them as a souvenir, and although Uncle System said that Sister Ayin was afraid that she would be poisoned and die after eating them, Yunmian was still very satisfied and confident with her results.
So she started to challenge new difficulties!
She wants to make red bean paste cat ears.
Yunmian doesn’t know why this snack is called cat ears. Cats are so cute, could it be that cat ears are especially delicious?
system:"……"
Please read the tutorial carefully!
The ball of light flew up and hit the kid's wandering head, placing the tutorial screen in front of her. Yun Mian could follow whatever the people in the screen did.
Compared to the two sisters next to her who were seriously fiddling with the ingredients, Yunmian's cheating was unnoticeable.
The first step is to pour the flour into a clean container.
Then add milk, sugar, oil and salt.
Yunmian looked at the flour in the basin, pursed her lips, closed her eyes, and put her washed hands in.
The feeling... is indescribable.
But she still kneaded these things carefully in the small iron basin until she was tired and gasping for breath, and then she could barely knead out a presentable dough.
Seeing what the person on the light screen said was a smooth dough, Yun Mianmian looked down at her own, and silently spread out her palms to cover the dough in the iron basin tightly.
Not smooth at all...
Just as I was about to take a break before continuing my efforts, two hands appeared from the side at the same time, one on the left and one on the right, trying to take the iron basin away.
Yunmian: “???”
The child looked left and right in confusion, then subconsciously lay down on the table and hugged his iron basin tightly.
The puppy is guarding its food, as if he is afraid that someone will snatch it away.
Wu Yin: “…”
He Fang: “…”
Okay, then you work hard on your own.
The two children looked at each other through Mianmian, and silently withdrew their hands, pretending that nothing had happened.
After a short rest, Yun Mian began to knead the dough again. She didn't know how long she had been kneading it, but the dough finally looked similar to what was on the screen.
The child took a deep breath, covered the iron basin with plastic wrap, and sat back on the stool. He unconsciously raised his flour-covered hands to touch his face and put the fallen hair back.
She had completely forgotten that she was still covered in flour.
So soon, the little dog Mian who worked hard to make snacks became the cat Mian with a white beard.
There were traces of flour all over the child's cheeks, but he was unaware of it. He sat there with his face supported by his hands, waiting for the dough to ferment for ten minutes.
After the system recorded the cute cat Mian's appearance, it reminded the dazed child: "Mianmian, you still need to knead the dough. The cat's ears have two colors, and your sandwich layer is not done yet."
So the child started pouring flour and brown sugar water again... and continued to hold his little face and wait for the new ten minutes.
During this time, I curiously looked at the progress of the sisters on my left and right.
Then they were fed sweet and soft marshmallows and sour and sweet blueberry jam respectively.
Yunmian sat in the middle, savoring the sweet taste on her tongue, her eyes narrowed with happiness.
She will have to sit in the middle from now on!
Ten minutes later, the dough was fermented, and Yunmian still made cat ears according to the steps on the light screen.
Roll out both the milk dough and the brown sugar dough, then brush them with a layer of water, stack them together, and roll them out again...
After her mother helped to roll up the dough and put it in the refrigerator, Yunmian tilted her face upward, stared at the clock hanging on the wall of the restaurant and began to empty her mind.
I have to wait for such a long time...
It took so long that her two sisters’ snacks were ready before she took them out of the refrigerator, sliced them, and gave them to her mother to fry in a frying pan.
"Stand further away, or the oil will splash on you." Yun Jinyan pushed the child who was waiting anxiously a little further away. After a while, a cat came rubbing against her legs again.
"Mom, are you ready?"
"Mom, will it burn?"
"Mom, can I take a piece out and try it?"
"Mother……"
Yun Jinyan: “…”
This is how Tang Monk chants sutras!
Wu Yin ran in and took away the child who kept trying to get closer to danger.
After coming out, one of them stuffed a small blueberry cake into her hand, and the other stuffed a piece of milky snowflake crisp into her mouth.
"Try it and see whose cooking is better?" He Fang held her chin with her palm and waited for the children's evaluation.
Yunmian took a bite of the snowflake crisp first.
There is a light layer of coconut and milk powder on the surface of the snowflake crisps. It is not too sticky to hold, and it is not the soft texture in snack shops, but crispy and fragrant. The melted marshmallows and various nuts are mixed with butter, and then added with milk powder with a strong milky flavor. When you take a bite, the taste is super rich.
Yunmian smacked her lips, and there was milk powder and fragrant coconut flakes on the corners of her mouth, which she licked off carefully.
Then he picked up the cake, opened his mouth wide and took a bite.
The cake had a soft texture, and she bit into it right away and found it was filled with blueberry jam.
The blueberry jam is not finely sieved. After adding sugar and water into the pot and stirring and boiling continuously, the sticky blue-purple sauce is still mixed with the granular texture of blueberry pulp. The sour and sweet blueberry jam and the soft and fluffy little cakes that slowly bounce back when gently pressed are combined together. Neither of them steals the limelight from the other, but instead they blend just right. One more would be greasy, and one less would lose the taste.
Yunmian held a small cake in her left hand and snowflake crisps in her right hand. She chewed with her cheeks bulging like a little squirrel, and was so serious that she didn't take each portion of food lightly.
"How was it?" Wu Yin, who was also trying to make snacks for the first time, was a little nervous and secretly looked forward to the children's comments.
Then both of them received the same uncultured but exceptionally sincere comment.
"Delicious!" Yunmian nodded vigorously: "Super, super delicious! I even grew little wings~"
After the child finished speaking, he opened his hands that held different snacks and waved them happily in front of his two sisters. Then his invisible little wings also waved cutely, and a floor full of sparkling little cakes and snowflake crisps fell to the ground. Each of them had been bitten by the child, leaving gaps with tooth marks, and they swayed innocently on the ground.
The system was almost dizzy with the cuteness of its own host. He Fang and Wu Yin looked at Mianmian's little face flapping her wings, and they couldn't help but smile like an aunt (sister).
It is so cute, just like colorful, soft and fluffy marshmallows, making people want to get close and lick it. Every bite must be sweet sugar threads.
Yunmian was immersed in the delicious snacks, while her two sisters were immersed in the sweet cat marshmallows. Then, they were caught off guard by the snacks held up by the children and one of them was stuffed into their mouths.
She was also very considerate and turned the part she had bitten and put the unbitten side into their mouths.
The small cake made by He Fang was stuffed into Wu Yin's mouth, and the snowflake crisps made by Wu Yin hit He Fang's teeth.
"You guys eat too~" The child still raised his hands, looked around, and happily urged them to enjoy the food made by each other.
It's like a small rainbow candy bridge, connecting two sides that were originally far apart and would never have any connection.
Wu Yin and He Fang looked at each other. They couldn't tell what emotions were in each other's eyes, but they both saw the other's indulgence and smile at Mianmian's behavior, so they each took a bite and savored each other's results.
The next second, the children stuffed the snacks that they had bitten into their mouths without any hesitation or disgust.
It was too late for both of them to stop it.
Facing the two sisters who seemed to be hesitant to speak, Yunmian puffed up her cheeks and smiled widely, her eyes sparkling as she said vaguely, "Thank you, sister. Enjoy the meal!"
The small cakes are delicious, and the snowflake crisps are also delicious!
She must be the happiest child in the world now.
Everyone says that delicious food has the power to heal people's hearts, but at this moment, looking at the children who were filled with satisfaction and happiness, He Fang and Wu Yin both felt that they were not healed by the delicious food. Instead, they were healed by the little cat Mianmian and felt warm all over.
How can there be such wonderful children in the world?
Always be happy, always be joyful, always be content and kind, always be brave and positive.
Her world seemed to be glowing all the time. Wherever she went, the warm light would shine there unhindered. No matter if it was a dark abyss or a long black night, she would glow freely, dispelling the twisted and terrifying past or unknown in the darkness.
"Mianmian, come here, your cat ears are ready." Yun Jinyan's voice came from the kitchen.
Yun Mian ran in quickly, followed by Wu Yin and He Fang.
The cat ears had been taken out of the oil pan a few minutes ago. After draining the oil, Yun Jinyan put them in a clean small bamboo basket. When she handed it to Yun Mian, she could hear the crisp sound of the cat ears shaking and rubbing in the bamboo basket.
I haven't eaten it yet, but as soon as I took it in my hand, I could smell the sweet aroma of fried food.
The system said that cat ears have sweet, salty, and even spicy flavors, etc., but Yunmian is a loyal sweet lover, so she chose the sweet cat ears without hesitation!
Putting the small basket on the empty dining table, Yun Mian curiously picked up a piece and held it in front of her eyes to observe.
This cat's ear is thin, with circles of round patterns that look a bit cute, but it has nothing to do with real furry cat ears.
Yunmian swallowed and asked humbly: "Sister, why don't cat ears look like cat ears?"
He Fang was silent for a moment, then answered her: "There is no husband and wife in Fuqi Feipian either."
Wu Yin smiled and said, "There is no wife in wife cake either."
As the child looked increasingly confused, the system responded, "There is no fish in the fish-flavored eggplant."
Yunmian: “…”
It seemed like I understood, but it also seemed like I didn’t understand it anymore.
Why would they name it like that if it doesn't exist? How strange!
Compared to those strange dish names, Yun Mian felt that the cat ears in her hand were already very close to cat ears.
She quickly put aside the difficult names of the dishes and began to share her snacks with her two sisters.
You have one, I have one, she has one...
I also put some things in the other empty space, which are reserved for Sister Zhaozhao. My mother will pack them up after the store closes, and I can take them to school tomorrow to share with Sister Zhaozhao!
After dividing the cat ears, Yun Mian picked up a piece and put it in his mouth without hesitation.
She made the curlers very big, so each cat's ear was a little big, and I couldn't eat it in one bite. I could only take a bite on the cat's ear.
"Click."
A crisp cracking sound was heard near his mouth. The cat ears, which had just been taken out of the oil pan and were still a little warm, broke into many small pieces when the child bit them gently.
This piece of cat ear is so thin that it is crispy.
Yunmian picked up all the crumbs that fell on the table and held them in her palms while chewing the crispy cat ears in her mouth. When she was happy with the meal, she couldn't help but shake her head in her seat as she tasted it.
The fragrant and crispy cat ears, the aroma of milk, the sweetness of brown sugar, and the high-temperature frying completely blend the aroma of the ingredients together. It does not have the greasiness of puffed fried foods at all, but is fragrant and sweet with a great taste. The more you chew, the more addictive it becomes.
The little braids on Yunmian's head swayed happily with her, and the cat ears in the small basket were soon empty.
He Fang and Wu Yin were also amazed by the taste of the snacks that the children made themselves.
There is no adult who can understand words like "appropriate amount" and "a little" hidden in Mianmian's body. She just puts in as much ingredients as she wants. This is her first time making crispy cat ears. Even though Aunt Yun is involved in the frying and cutting processes, the finished product is really enough to amaze their taste buds.
It is no exaggeration to say that cat ears made of cotton are definitely more fragrant, crispier, thinner and more delicious than those sold in snack shops!
Just the right amount of crispness, just the right amount of sweetness, everything seems to be controlled just right, just like the taste made by a master pastry chef who has been making pastries for decades, but it seems to be mixed with something peculiar to children, making the taste suddenly light.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but eating cat ears made of cotton seems to really make me happy…
It's not like they haven't eaten better and more precious things before, but sitting in the Yunduo Restaurant, smelling the fragrant aroma of the food and eating the crispy cat ears, they couldn't stop for a moment.
So much so that in the end, all three pairs of eyes were staring at the cat ears that originally belonged to Li Zhaozhao.
system:"……"
You say you are mature and steady adults, but you are obviously three greedy cats!
Yun Mian swallowed her saliva, covered her cheeks which were a little sore from chewing, and after hesitating for a while, she resolutely put the small pile of cat ears into the snack bag and sealed it.
Then he hid it in the school bag and zipped it up, completely isolating the three kids from any dangerous thoughts.
"Mianmian, what do you want to do when you grow up?" He Fang asked as she piled the small cakes she had made in front of Mianmian.
Wu Yin had already stuffed all the small bags of snowflake crisps into the cotton bag, leaving nothing in front of the two children.
Yunmian held the new yellow bunny backpack her mother bought and thought seriously.
The toes hanging on the stool are still moving little by little~
After a moment, the child said with longing: "I want to be the best chef in the world~"
"Is it because your mother is a chef?" He Fang glanced at Yun Jinyan who had been standing not far away.
Yunmian shook her head, and then her dirty little face fantasized happily: "No, it's because I want to make a lot of delicious food, and then share it with my mother, my sisters, and the aunts, uncles, grandparents in the store..."
I don’t know why, but Yunmian always feels that being able to eat delicious food, such as holding a piece of sweet cake and eating it slowly, is a very happy and satisfying thing.
So she wants everyone she likes to feel this happiness and satisfaction.
“Only the best chefs can make the most delicious food!” The child said seriously, “My mom is the best. I want to be the second best, but she will get tired after working for many years. Then I can become the best chef and cook different delicacies for her every day.”
Just like from childhood to now, her mother would prepare lots of delicious food for her in different ways every day.
"Sister, what about you?" Yun Mian finished talking about her longing for growing up, and quickly asked her sister He Fang curiously.
I thought He Fang would have to think for a while before answering, but she blurted out without hesitation: "I want to be a police officer."
The little girl's eyes were bright and firm, and her gaze was burning, as if she had already thought about this question and the answer thousands of times, without any hesitation or change.
Yun Mian's eyes widened slightly, and she exclaimed in surprise and admiration: "Wow! Sister, you are so awesome! When you become a police officer, you can catch a lot of bad guys. Good people will like you, and bad people will be afraid of you. Then you will be as awesome as Ultraman and Guanyin Bodhisattva!!"
Clearly it was just an empty dream waiting to be fulfilled, but the little girl looked at He Fang who spoke of this dream with bright eyes, as if she had already seen the day when her dream would come true, and without hesitation she gilded her sister with layer upon layer of sparkling light and gold edges.
He Fang couldn't help laughing, straightened her back slightly, and said firmly: "Well, I will be very powerful, and then protect more children and adults who are bullied by bad guys."
Little Yun Mianmian started clapping until her palms turned red. Then she and sister He Fang turned their heads to look at sister Ayin who was silent beside them.
Wu Yin has been silent since the beginning of this topic.
Because she couldn't figure out what her dream was.
In her previous life, she was a person without dreams. All her obsessions became twisted and hideous over time. Once she died and woke up again, she could easily make money. The Li family was no longer her dream, and Wu Wan was no longer her obsession. Mianmian and Aunt Yun would live well forever.
So what was your dream in your previous life?
What is your dream in this life?
She doesn't seem to have anything in particular that she likes, nor anyone in particular that she wants to be.
Ever since she was sent back to the Wu family by the Li family, she has been like a piece of duckweed, drifting with the waves, waiting to be stranded and die one day.
But she didn't want to be a floating duckweed, and death was very painful...
Perhaps she could try to take root in her dream, and then strive to grow into someone so strong and resilient that even the flow of fate could not push her away.
But what kind of dream is this that can carry such a tenacious future?
While thinking, Wu Yin's eyes caught sight of Mianmian, who was holding up her little face and staring at her intently and attentively. She was slightly stunned and a flash of inspiration passed through her mind.
“My dream is simple yet difficult.”
She said to the two people who were listening: "I hope that I can live a long life with Mianmian in the future!"
Let go of your obsessions, be free from illness and disaster, everything will go smoothly, and you will be free and at ease.
