Qi Mengmeng briefly recounted the encounter with Sun Zhiwen in the city. Old Master Jiang frowned and said, "Stay away from this guy next time you see him."
A man asked a woman to take him to the hospital just for a minor scratch.
Zhang Meiling had different ideas. If Qi Mengmeng bumped into that person and was not seriously injured, and the other party did not insist on getting Qi Mengmeng's name and unit, it was very likely that the other party had taken a fancy to Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Mengmeng has fair skin, a tall figure, and her unique temperament makes her very attractive when she walks on the street.
She spoke out her guess, and before Mr. Jiang could speak, Qi Mengmeng laughed first. She pointed at herself with her index finger and said, "Aunt Ling, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Do you think I love everyone I see?"
Qi Mengmeng is very confident, but she is not so conceited as to think that everyone will like her.
What she thought more about yesterday was that Sun Zhiwen wanted to extort money rather than that Sun Zhiwen fell in love with her, and when she left, she made it clear that she was already married.
If Sun Zhiwen was really a researcher at the machinery factory, as long as he was not crazy, he would not fall for her.
Old Master Jiang looked Qi Mengmeng up and down, and felt that Zhang Meiling's guess made sense.
Qi Mengmeng found it funny. "Aunt Ling, Uncle, you guys are really overthinking it. I just bumped into him accidentally yesterday. I will be more careful next time and won't do that again."
Zhang Meiling gave Qi Mengmeng some instructions and specifically said that if she met Sun Zhiwen again, she must stay away from him.
People with evil intentions like this must be kept away from.
Qi Mengmeng smiled and nodded. She really felt that she would have no contact with Sun Zhiwen in the future.
Zhang Meiling and Mr. Jiang have different opinions. They think that Sun Zhiwen will definitely appear in front of Qi Mengmeng again.
However, nothing has happened yet, so they can only remind Qi Mengmeng to be careful.
Seeing that the two elderly people looked serious, Qi Mengmeng also adjusted her mindset and said that she would be more careful in the future.
After leaving the old man, Qi Mengmeng went to Mrs. Song's house to buy thirty eggs and returned to the family compound.
Some time ago, she asked a bricklayer in the army to build an oven for her in the yard, and today was the first time she used it.
She had been to a bakery owned by a colleague in the village before. In addition to modern ovens, they also built ovens against the mountain. The bread made using the most primitive method had the most authentic taste and also had the aroma of charcoal fire.
It is not easy to buy a home oven now, and Qi Mengmeng cannot always use the oven in the space. Two days ago, when she watched the master put the bread dough into the large oven, she suddenly thought of using clay to make an oven.
Although it is difficult to control the time, the taste of the food made in the oven is definitely good.
Qi Mengmeng is preparing to make a red date and walnut bread.
She has red dates and walnuts at home, and these two things are not rare, so it is not surprising that she can make it.
The most difficult part was that it was her first time using this oven and she needed to adjust the temperature and time.
The first red date and walnut bread was too hard. It was baked for too long and at too high a temperature. It was enough to knock out your teeth.
The second red date and walnut bread turned out fine on the outside, but when I broke it open, the inside was still raw.
Qi Mengmeng thought for a while, adjusted the temperature again, and finally baked a soft and glutinous red peach walnut bread.
The bread was cooked, but the heat was a little too high and the surface of the bread was a little burnt.
Qi Mengmeng put the remaining five loaves of bread in, adjusted the heat, baked it again, and finally opened the oven door in anticipation.
The five toasted loaves of bread gave off a strong aroma of bread, mixed with the flavors of red dates and walnuts. Except for the one on the edge which was a little burnt, the other four were fine.
Qi Mengmeng happily put the remaining four loaves of bread on the table. She planned to give these four loaves of bread to Master Li.
During this period, Master Li treated her very well and even let her learn how to knead and ferment the dough.
This means he really treats her as his apprentice, so after Qi Mengmeng successfully made the red date and walnut bread, she also wanted to let Master Li try it.
Qi Mengmeng folded a nice bag with greaseproof paper and put four loaves of bread in it.
The next morning, she entered the workshop and handed the bread to Master Li when they were alone.
"Master, I made this in my home oven. How does it taste?"
Master Li took out a small piece of bread the size of a palm, looked at it, and then put it in his mouth.
He paused for a moment before starting to chew.
"Mm, it tastes good, go get ready for work."
Master Li took the bag of bread and walked slowly towards his lounge with a calm look.
Qi Mengmeng saw that Master Li's hands were empty and knew that he had finished eating the bread she had made.
This was Master Li's affirmation of her, and Qi Mengmeng went to work happily.
Master Li glanced at the bag in his hand again. It seemed that the apprentice he accepted this time was really talented. When no one had a home oven, she could make such red date and walnut bread with her own oven.
He planned to take the remaining three loaves of bread home to his wife to let her know that he had accepted a particularly talented apprentice.
After get off work at noon, Master Li left with the bag. When he reached the door, he asked the comrades from the security department to look for it.
"This is a gift from my apprentice. It should be okay for me to take it away, right?"
The three small loaves of bread in the bag looked different from the bread in the factory. The security guard took a look and let Master Li go back.
Master Li returned home humming a little tune, and as soon as he entered the house he began to shout, "Wife, I brought you some bread."
"Didn't you say that we can't bring back bread from the factory?" Zhao Xiaocao asked in surprise.
"What I meant is that things in the factory cannot be taken out. This was given to me by my apprentice. Of course it's allowed." Master Li held the bread in front of Zhao Xiaocao like he was presenting a treasure.
Zhao Xiaocao picked up one of the small pieces of bread, looked at it, took a bite, and then ate another bite...
In two minutes, Zhao Xiaocao finished the bread and nodded: "This bread tastes better than the ones sold, but it has a charcoal smell."
Zhao Xiaocao has been married to Master Li for more than 20 years. She has listened to many of his stories about bread and has also eaten a lot of bread, so she has a very clear understanding of the taste of bread.
Master Li also tasted this smell. He knew it was the unique smell of the oven. Oven-baked food did not have this smell.
"Mengmeng is truly the most talented apprentice I have. In such a short time, she can make bread by herself." Master Li praised Qi Mengmeng highly.
Zhao Xiaocao also became interested in Qi Mengmeng, and asked Master Li to bring Qi Mengmeng to her home for dinner tomorrow, as she also wanted to meet her.
