Chapter 134 My Master is from the Mountains
Zhu Qi was satisfied with Baoya's affirmation.
Although he was very confident in his cooking skills, he still felt happy to hear the little girl praising his cooking skills.
There is a kind of joy in having your cooking skills appreciated by people who understand you. This is probably the feeling of understanding between Boya and Zhong Ziqi.
But Baoya is still so young, she probably doesn’t understand these things.
Zhu Qi looked at the little girl's bulging cheeks as she chewed bacon, and smiled helplessly while shaking his head.
The three caramel milk teas made by Baoya taste really amazing.
The rich milky aroma, with a hint of burnt sweetness and tea fragrance, mixed with the chewy and smooth texture of taro balls, the unique sweetness of raisins, and the fragrance of crushed peanuts, makes you unable to stop.
Zhu Qi drank several big bowls in one breath, and Xiaodouzi couldn't stop drinking either, and kept saying it was delicious.
There are also the fried potato pancakes made by He Chunxiu. The tempting aroma of the potato pancakes, the salty and fragrant bacon flavor, and the crispy texture of the vegetables are definitely a snack that is suitable for all ages to satisfy their cravings.
Baoya looked at Zhu Qi and Xiaodouzi eating with great satisfaction. She also drank up the big pot of caramel three-in-one milk tea she cooked. Her little face was flushed with joy.
"Uncle Zhu, Brother Douzi, is the caramel three-in-one milk tea I made delicious?"
"It tastes good!" Zhu Qi touched Baoya's head and praised her without reservation.
"This is my first time drinking milk tea, even at my age. The wonderful taste and texture are simply amazing. Baoya, did you come up with this idea yourself?"
Baoya shook her head and said honestly, "My master taught me how to make milk tea, but I've mastered the basics. Now I can make a lot of different flavors of milk tea."
Thinking that Zhu Qi was interested in this drink, the little girl blinked and said, "Uncle Zhu, if you like, I can make other flavors of milk tea for you."
"Yeah." Zhu Qi nodded. He had full trust in Baoya's free play. The little girl was so smart that no matter what flavor of milk tea she made, it would taste good.
But what he cared about more now was the "master" mentioned by Baoya. Who was the person who could develop such a wonderful drink and teach the little girl to make so many strange foods?
It was obvious that this little girl was the one I had my eyes on earlier...
Thinking of this, he forced a smile: "Baoya, your master, is he a good cook? Where is he from?"
"Hmm..." Baoya didn't know what he was thinking, so she said seriously, "His cooking is also delicious, so he must be a good cook. Where is he from?"
Nan Xuan and Brother Xiao Jing never told her where they were from. The only identities she knew of them were that they were the owner and the young master of Hongdouxuan, a pastry shop in Ping'an Town.
But Baoya was smart. Ever since Nanxuan came down the mountain wearing a mask, she had vaguely guessed that the two of them probably didn't want others to know their identities.
So he said, "He must be a mountain man."
Living deep in Huya Mountain, it’s not an exaggeration to say that I’m a mountain person.
Mountain people...
Zhu Qi was confused. Why did it sound so mysterious?
However, there is actually such a great chef hidden in the mountains near Ping'an Town?
If he could find out where this amazing chef lives, he would definitely pay him a visit. After all, the milk tea Baoya made today was so delicious!
Without giving him much time to think about it, the enthusiastic Wang Cailian took him to taste the food.
Ever since Wang Cailian learned from Bao Ya that her cooking skills were pretty good, she has been very proud of them. Now that the chef is right in front of her, of course she has to ask the chef to comment on her dishes.
The meal was very lively. The Yun family, Zhu Qi and Xiaodouzi were all very satisfied. They devoured the food in no time and nothing was left.
After dinner, Yun Chengfu and Yun Chenglu brought a row of small stools and placed them neatly in the yard. Everyone sat on the stools together, chatting and basking in the sun.
After resting for a while, it was almost time for Zhu Qi and Xiao Douzi to go back.
Zhu Qi and Zhao Zhilan were chatting about this and that, while Baoya played cat's tuck with Yun Chengfu, Yun Chenglu, Yunhua and Yunyue, and listened to Yun Chengfu talk about some interesting daily events in the academy.
But as they were talking and laughing, Baoya discovered that her second brother seemed to be in a low mood.
The second brother, who is usually the most noisy, was particularly quiet today. He sat aside with his chin in his hand, staring at the flower rope in her hand in a daze.
"Second brother, what's wrong with you?" Baoya asked.
Yun Chenglu came back to his senses, looked at her and forced a smile: "Second brother is fine, Baoya, you guys go play."
"Second brother, you must be worried about something." Yun Yue saw through it at a glance and said it firmly.
Seeing Yunyue's point, Baoya frowned, tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Oh! I see! Second brother, are you still worried about the test questions given by the master?"
Having his thoughts guessed, Yun Chenglu nodded dejectedly: "Yes, Master doesn't allow me to ask for help, but I can't think of it myself."
"What is your master's test question?" Yunhua also came over curiously.
Yun Chenglu was immediately nervous when she asked, "I can't tell him that! If he finds out I cheated, this exam won't count!"
It was rare to see him so nervous, so Yun Chengfu was quite interested. "We're just asking for your opinion. We don't necessarily know the answer."
Yun Chenglu thought for a moment and realized that this was indeed the case, so he said, "Well, I'll tell you. The test question is: 100 dan of elm firewood."
"What kind of firewood?"
"What do you mean?"
Yunhua and Yunyue both looked confused, only Yun Chengfu frowned slightly and then curled the corners of his mouth.
Seeing Yunhua and Yunyue looking confused, Yun Chenglu sighed: "You guys go have fun, I have to go study for the exam."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the west wing with a sad face.
Yun Chenglu went into the house and did not come out until he had sent Zhu Qi and Xiao Douzi away. He sat at the desk, buried in a book, and it was unknown whether he had figured out anything.
It was soon dinner time, and Baoya was hesitating whether going in to call her second brother to eat would disturb his train of thought.
Yun Chenglu suddenly rushed out from the west wing, not even bothering to eat. He picked up the axe under the wall and ran out in a hurry.
Baoya quickly ran to the door on her short legs and shouted at Yun Chenglu's windy back, "Second brother, it's time for dinner, where are you going?"
"Sister Baoya, I know what the test questions mean. Don't worry, I'll be back later!"
After saying this, the figure disappeared at the end of the path.
Baoya stared at the deserted narrow path, her little face full of melancholy. That was the direction to Huya Mountain.
Now that I understand the test question, why did my second brother go to the mountains? Are you in a hurry to tell the master?
My shoulders suddenly sank. Yun Chengfu walked over and said softly, "Don't worry. Your second brother is preparing the answers to the exam questions."
"Prepare an answer?" Baoya's star-like eyes were filled with great doubts. What answer? Do I need to prepare?
Yun Chengfu didn't answer, but said meaningfully: "I hope he understands correctly."
