“Dong Dong Dong”
Yuan Zhou knocked on the door several times politely and then stopped at the door.
“Who is it?” An old voice came from inside, and it was undoubtedly the voice of the old woman.
“Squeak!”
The wooden door creaked and opened slowly, revealing the figure of the old woman. She was wearing a gray and slightly old cotton-padded jacket, which was well-fitted without a trace of dirt or wrinkles. Her hair was neatly tied behind her head, and her face looked slightly sickly. It was obvious that she was not in good health, but she seemed to be in good spirits.
“Oh, it’s little boss Yuan. How come you have time to come over today? come in and have a seat.” The granny was both happy and surprised to see Yuan Zhou.
“I heard that you were discharged from the hospital, so I came over to take a look.” Yuan Zhou sized up the granny and felt that she was in good spirits. Then, he became slightly relieved.
“Hey, little boss Yuan, you’re so busy, yet you still miss an old woman like me. You don’t need to come and visit me. I’m fine, aren’t I?” The granny was a little embarrassed, probably because she felt that she had troubled Yuan Zhou.
“I’m free today, so it’s no trouble at all. These pastries are new. Try them and see if they’re good and give me some suggestions. The store is preparing to release a new style. ” Yuan Zhou carried the food box and followed the granny into the restaurant.
The courtyard was not big. It only took a few steps to reach the door of the room. A courtyard the size of a palm was probably the most vivid description.
The house inside was also very small. It was just a room. There was no functional distinction between the living room, kitchen, bedroom, and other rooms. They were all in one room.
It was small, but it was very clean and tidy, which many young people could not compare to. The only advantage of the old lady’s residence was the courtyard outside. In the past, she used to make buns and the like in the courtyard, which was very convenient.
After entering the room, Yuan Zhou handed the lunchbox to the granny. His meaning was quite obvious.
......
“How can I accept this?” The old lady reached out to take it subconsciously.
“I’m just here to let you try the taste and see if it’s ready to be served. I’m asking for your help. I should be the one to be embarrassed. Sorry for the trouble. ” Yuan Zhou bent his back slightly and was quite polite.
“Don ‘t, don’ T. I haven’t eaten anything good before. Therefore, what I say might not be useful. But if there’s anything, I will definitely tell little boss Yuan.” The granny revealed a comfortable smile on her face. Obviously, she was very happy to be able to help Yuan Zhou.
“Food is about taking the opinions of the majority. Only when the majority thinks it’s delicious can it be called delicious.” When Yuan Zhou saw the granny put the food container on the table, he took a step forward and opened it.
The food box was kept warm, and white mist was coming out of it when it was opened. It was obviously very fresh.
“Hua la, Hua la”
The old lady went to the sink to wash her hands and then came back with a pair of chopsticks to try the food.
“Little boss Yuan’s craftsmanship is really good. It doesn’t look bad at all.” The old lady was in a good mood when she saw the White and chubby rice cake with a little red on the tip made into a Longevity Peach-like rice cake.
“This is only one of the appearances. There are other appearances. Please help me try them out next time.” Yuan Zhou said.
“OK, no problem. I will definitely tell little boss Yuan.” The old grandma was full of confidence.
She reached out her chopsticks and picked up a small Longevity Peach. The old lady slowly brought it to her mouth and bit the tip of the peach.
He had thought that it was just a red color with edible pigments. Although it looked very comfortable, it should not have any taste. However, it was completely different when it entered his mouth.
The sweet taste of the radish spread in his mouth, accompanied by the delicate fragrance of the rice. The taste was fresh and naturally very good.
The granny nodded her head slightly. The taste of the rice balls was different from the tangyuans that Yuan Zhou had made in the past. Although the rice was less glutinous than the glutinous rice, it was still sticky to a certain extent after Yuan Zhou’s special treatment.
He nodded his head slightly and felt that Yuan Zhou was indeed worthy of his reputation. He took another bite and was surprised. The sweet taste of Osmanthus spread between his lips and teeth, as if it wasn’t winter and he was in the middle of the ‘osmanthus fragrance’.
The grandma loved sweet osmanthus the most, but because of her old age, she couldn’t eat too much sweet food. She hadn’t eaten it for a long time, but today’s sweet osmanthus gave her a different feeling.
The flavor of the osmanthus flowers was perfectly preserved. It was sweet without any extra sugar and didn’t feel greasy at all. The grandma couldn’t help but put it all in her mouth. After that, she took another one, and then another one, and that was it.
Considering the old Granny’s appetite, Yuan Zhou prepared six small and delicate Longevity Peach rice cakes. In just a few minutes, they were all eaten up.
“Compared to the mooncake that little boss Yuan gave to this old woman during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, your craftsmanship is improving year by year. There’s no problem with this rice cake at all. It’s very delicious.” The old lady looked at the empty plate. She had not eaten so many pastries in a long time and was a little embarrassed.
“This was originally prepared for you. It’s just right to eat it while it’s hot.” Yuan Zhou said.
“The dishes cooked by little boss Yuan are very delicious.” “I really can’t think of any suggestions,” the old lady said.
“No comment. It’s also a comment. It proves that the pastries are very to your liking.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
“Then I’ll leave first, I’ll come see you next time.” Yuan Zhou packed up the lunchbox and took it away. Otherwise, the granny would definitely take some time to deliver it to him.
“I’ll take it away after I wash it. ” The old lady said and was about to take action.
“It’s fine. Let’s go back and shower together. ” Yuan Zhou said.
“I was just about to go out to repair my shoes, and a pair of leather shoes opened their mouth.”
The granny didn’t insist. Instead, she carried a bag behind the door and followed Yuan Zhou, intending to go out.
“Is it at that old master Xue’s place? is he still repairing shoes?” Yuan Zhou asked.
There was only one shoe repair shop along several streets here. Yuan Zhou remembered that he had gone there once when he was a child, but that was many years ago. Nowadays, young people didn’t repair shoes. After all, if the cheap shoes were broken, they could be replaced with new ones directly. If they were expensive, they wouldn’t be sent to small shoe stalls for repair. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to send them to specialty stores?
“It’s old Wang. He said that as long as he can move, he will work. He’s still repairing it.” The old lady agreed with uncle Xue’s point of view, because that was what she did.
“Then I’ll help you get it.” After taking the bag from the granny, Yuan Zhou led the way.
Yuan Zhou could vaguely remember the location. This place was not renovated or rebuilt much. Basically, it was as he remembered and could barely remember.
The old woman didn’t say much. Anyway, they were basically going the same way and wouldn’t take many turns.
From a distance, he saw a building that looked like a shed. It should be a part of the residents ‘self-built building. The lights were turned on inside. With Yuan Zhou’s eyesight, he saw a gray-haired old man wearing a gray down jacket and a leather apron. He was sitting on a small bench and working on something on a machine with his head lowered.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a scene. ”
