Chapter 15: Favorability

In the afternoon, the three girls did not play, but learned to make dumplings with Huang Shang on the side.

"It is best to use all-purpose flour for dumpling wrappers, such as Chinese pastry buns, dumplings, noodles, steamed buns, etc., which are generally all-purpose flour. High-gluten flour has relatively high activity, and it is not easy to form a ball by hand, so it is more suitable for making bread and pastry snacks. Although low-gluten flour is easier to form a ball, it is too soft, if it is used to make dumplings, it is easy to break the skin when boiled, which affects the taste, but low-gluten flour is suitable for cakes and biscuits and other pastries, these three points must be remembered. ”

The three girls nodded one after another, and Yukino even took out her notebook to take notes.

"Dumpling wrappers are just the most basic things to make dumplings, but whether dumplings are delicious or not, the key is in the preparation of fillings. Chinese dumplings have a variety of fillings, the more common ones are leeks, cabbage, fennel, beans, celery, gourd, etc., which can be meat fillings or vegetarian fillings, which are basically versatile. In Huaxia, each household has its own unique seasoning secrets, so the taste of dumplings made by any one is different.

Many people eat dumplings or something in a restaurant in China and think that it is an authentic Chinese taste, but in fact, the real characteristics of Chinese cuisine are not authentic, but generally the same, but each has its own taste. ”

"Chinese food is amazing." The three girls were amazed.

"Of course." Huang Shang said: "I can bet you that if you eat different Chinese cuisine for three meals a day, from birth to death, you will not be able to eat half of the Chinese food." ”

"Really!?" The three women were shocked.

Huang Shang nodded: "Back then, a foreigner came to Huaxia and said that it would take him a year to eat all the Chinese food, but five years have passed, and he has not left Sichuan Province." ”

"Wow!" Qianhua exclaimed: "How many delicacies are there in Huaxia?" ”

"I don't know." Huang Shang shook his head, although he is a culinary master, but this grandmaster only makes a 'rough' dish, but there are countless subdivisions in general, so even if he is he, he doesn't know how many delicacies there are in Huaxia? Not to mention the previous ones, in this society with convenient transportation in all directions, the interactive transportation of ingredients from all over the world, there will be countless new delicacies every day, which is very devastating.

You ask me how much Chinese food there is? All I can say is: as many as the stars in the sky.

You count!

Count to the end of your death and you win.

"The Chinese people's delving into food is really terrible." "No wonder there are many anime works related to Chinese food in Japan. ”

"You're talking about China, right?" Huang Shang asked.

Ying Li Li nodded.

"Actually, the cartoonist's study of Chinese cuisine is very superficial." Huang Shang said: "The food in China is more than that, and it is not a dime. ”

After a pause, Huang Shang looked at her and said, "Do you want me to provide you with some materials, and you can draw a comic book of Chinese food?" ”

Before she debuted as an illustrator, her biggest dream was to become an authentic cartoonist, but her storyboard ability and story arrangement ability were too bad, and after trying a few times, she was hit by reality and gave up this dream.

Huang Shang's words made her rekindle her pursuit of her dreams.

"But ......," Ying Lili hesitated, "I don't have enough ability to make up stories, and I don't have enough comic storyboard skills." ”

"Forget it." Huang Shang lowered his head to adjust the stuffing.

"Hey!"

Ying Lili was furious: "Fierce-"

"Since you know your weaknesses, you try to overcome them, and what kind of comics do you draw in a cower?" Huang Shang said lightly: "With your attitude, how can you let me provide materials." ”

“……”

Ying Lili looked deflated: (; ′⌒`)

Yukino comforted, "Although I haven't drawn manga, I also know how difficult it is to publish manga. Ying Lili, your drawing skills are absolutely fine, just like Huang Sang said, since you already know your weaknesses, then work hard to overcome them, as long as you overcome your shortcomings, I believe you will succeed in making your debut as a cartoonist. ”

"Yukino ......"

"Uh-huh." Qianhua also comforted: "Yinglili-chan is very powerful, she will definitely succeed." ”

"A Thousand Flowers......

Ying Li Li was moved: "I ......"

"Easier said than done." Huang Shang poured a basin of cold water on her head: "If you really want to make your debut early, how can you wait until today?" You still think about whether the potato chips in your hand are delicious, whether the coke is delicious, and whether the quilt is comfortable when other cartoonists are trying to draw comics! ”

"You guy......" Ying Lili showed her vicious little tiger teeth, but was quickly deflated.

"You're right, I didn't try hard enough." Ying Lili drooped her face: "I didn't dare to continue after a few failed submissions.,And then I focused on how to make the original picture look better.,Slowly I can only illustrate the light novel.。 ”

“……”

Yukino and Chika don't know how to comfort them.

"Then don't draw it." Huang Shang said lightly: "If you really love it, you won't slack off, since you are slack, it proves that you don't have enough love for becoming a cartoonist, at most it's just a longing." Longing will make you like and envy, but in your bones, you don't think you're going to be like them, so there's no need to stick to it, and it's good to be an illustrator. ”

Ying Lili opened her mouth, was speechless for a while, and finally turned into a wry smile: "You guy, you really won't comfort people at all." ”

"Sometimes the truth is more useful than comfort." Huang Shang put a kind of dumpling filling on the table: "Laziness is human nature, if you don't have enough motivation, who wants to work hard?" A lot of the time it's just a last resort. ”

"As a last resort?"

"If you don't have to do anything, you can eat and clothe yourself, live in a big house, have endless money, do whatever you want, and do your children still want to go to school? Are adults still willing to work? ”

The three girls shook their heads.

Huang Shangdao: "At that time, the driving force that can support human life is the love of something, such as playing football, singing, painting, playing video games, and so on. Others don't say, do you feel tired when you play games? ”

"......" Ying Lili sighed: "If it's a game I like, if I don't play it until I can't hold on, I definitely won't stop." ”

"Therefore, people live because of the desires of their hearts." Huang Shang continued to adjust the second type of dumpling filling, saying: "Without desire, people will feel bored and even don't want to live." ”

"To live, you must find the desire in your heart, as long as this desire is harmless to yourself and others, you will do your best to pursue it, the process of pursuit may be difficult, but you must not feel tired, and it is difficult to give up. I am most afraid of finding the desire in my heart, but I can't pursue it, and this kind of life is very bitter. It's just that almost everyone in the world has the desire to ask but can't get it, so the Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, and he has already seen through people's hearts. ”

After listening to Huang Shang's words, the three girls had their own feelings in their hearts, especially Xue Nai, who recalled her life in the past 20 years and finally understood why she was unhappy? It turned out that there were too many desires that could not be requested.

Even if these desires are easy to obtain for many people, they are complete luxuries for her.

Like what......

Someone she likes, who can shelter her from the wind and rain.

"What about Brother Huang Shang?" Qianhua suddenly asked, "Does Brother Huang Shang feel that life is hard?" ”

"It's not bitter." Huang Shangmei was a little complacent: "Living until now, I have almost got everything I want, so I am the part of the world that is 'almost' outside, you can call me the chosen one." ”

"Wow! It's so hot! "There are black lines on Qianhua's face, not to mention Yukino and Yingli Pear.

"You guy, give me a little bit!"

…… I'm not more delicious than dumplings, but fun is not ......

After wrapping the dumplings, Huang Shang put some of them in the freezer layer of the refrigerator and froze them, and kept the remaining two catties for the evening.

It took two hours to make dumplings, and looking at the time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

"Add two cold dishes and two hot dishes for dinner, what do you want to eat?" Huang Shang asked.

"I can do it all." Yukino said.

Ying Lili hesitated: "I ...... too"

"You're welcome." Huang Shangdao: "You can say what you want to eat, and it's not that you can't do it." ”

"Hehe, then I'm welcome." Ying Li Li smiled: "I want to eat fried shrimp." ”

Huang Shang nodded: "Dumplings with fried shrimp, a good match." ”

"Right!" Ying Li Li is very happy: "Fried shrimp and dumplings go well together." ”

"Where's a thousand flowers?" Huang Shang asked.

"Hey, hey, I'm craving barbecue!" Qianhua scratched her face a little embarrassed: "But the barbecue still needs an oven, it's too troublesome." ”

Huang Shang looked at the time and said, "There is still enough time, I'll go buy an oven and come back, and buy some fresh shrimp and beef by the way." ”

"That's too troublesome Brother Huang Shang, let's go!" Chika said.

"No need." Huang Shangdao: "Choosing ingredients is also a part of cooking, I'm afraid that the ingredients you pick are not good enough, which will affect the taste." ”

"Uh...... Then it's troublesome Brother Huang Shang. ”

"Little things." Huang Shang went back to the bedroom and put on a coat, took the wallet, and said, "Qianhua, your driver will borrow it." ”

The driver who sent Qianhua over has been waiting outside the yard and is responsible for Qianhua's safety at the same time.

"Okay, I'll talk to him."

Qianhua made a phone call, hung up after a few words, and made an OK gesture to Huang Shang.

Huang Shang went out and turned right and got into a car on the side of the road.

Before six o'clock, the big bag and small bag returned.

In addition to fresh shrimp and high-quality beef, there are also some vegetables and an electric grill.

It is more convenient to eat barbecue at home, or an electric grill, otherwise you will use a charcoal grill indoors, and I am afraid that it will be too long.

"Brother Huang Shang has worked hard."

Qianhua was a little moved, she grew so big, it was the first time that a boy had done so much for her.

It's not a lie, originally with her appearance, there are many men who are willing to pay for her, but as a girl from a political family, ordinary boys dare not chase, and confident boys are unwilling to chase, plus Fujiwara Chika usually behaves a little off-line, which has caused her to have no men to chase in the past eighteen years, which is really pitiful.

However, no one chases after it, which does not mean that no one regards Fujiwara Chika as a marriage partner.

As early as four years ago, there were some families who fell in love with Fujiwara Chika and wanted to marry the Fujiwara family.

Jin Xinyun is also one of them, otherwise he would not let Huang Shang participate in the last drinking party.

In the past four years, there are too many people who want to marry the Fujiwara family, and the Fujiwara family has been in a state of selection, so they are not in a hurry to make a decision.

But recently, Fujiwara Chika and Huang Shang have gotten a little closer, and Fujiwara Miki has a very good impression of Huang Shang, and from the outsider's point of view, the two families have gradually become married.

Maybe he has some ideas in his heart, even if he is not mentally prepared, Fujiwara Chika's favorability towards Huang Shang is also increasing a little bit, just now Huang Shang deliberately went to buy beef, vegetables and electric grills in order to let her eat barbecue, and his favorability has increased a lot.

If it's with Brother Huang Shang......

Chika Fujiwara blushed.
