XV - A two-pronged battle
The matter of using Ji Yuehua as a shield added a short period of chaos to the store, but on the contrary, it also brought a lot of income to the store.
In addition to the desserts or bread that were originally going to be bought, plus the small pastries that were given to Ji Yuehua in real time, when ten out of ten customers did this, the current profit of the pastry shop increased a lot.
For the sake of bringing profits to the store, and for the sake of children, the middle-aged store manager had to blame Ruoxiwan for bringing Ji Yuehua for no reason to make the store a mess, and in turn, under the worried eyes of Yakumo Zi, he took the two of them to the kitchen to play, and performed the craft of making pastries on the spot.
Regarding how Yakumo Zi found this job, and how he felt at work, etc., because the person concerned has been silent, Ruoxi Wan and Ji Yuehua have not been able to know the details. It was only in the middle-aged shopkeeper's chatting while making pastries that the two learned a little bit about it.
It turned out that just a few days ago, that is, the day Yakumo Azusa went out to apply for a job.
Just as the son of the middle-aged store manager, the young man who was standing in a corner of the kitchen and fighting fiercely with the frying pan in his hand, walked out of the back door in order to learn how to make desserts other than cakes, he happened to meet Yakumo Azusa who had wandered here.
There are no dessert materials and tools at home for the three of Yakumozi, which Ruoxi Wan has mentioned to Ji Yuehua before. In fact, neither Yakumo Azusa nor Ruoxi Wan had ever had the experience of making desserts by themselves.
Just because you don't have experience doesn't mean you don't know anything.
For some reason, although Yakumo Azusa has never made a dessert herself, she has a general understanding of the preparation of many pastries, and some of them even know more deeply than the current pastry shop chef.
With a wealth of knowledge and a ghostly intuition, Yakumo quickly identified his problems when making pastries and proposed solutions to the descriptions of the store manager's son.
To be honest, the reason why I poured out my heart to Yakumo Zi, a little girl who looked less than seven years old, was originally just to find a stranger to vent his feelings, and he was able to get useful advice to the point, but it was unexpected by the store manager's son.
Under Yakumo's suggestion, the manager's son quickly put on a chef's robe, led Yakumo Zi into the kitchen through the back door, and started making desserts again step by step under the gaze of the other party.
Although the dessert is a relatively simple type and is not well known, it is the first time in the history of the manager's son that it has been successful.
Seeing that his son suddenly opened up, and the guide was only a six-year-old girl, the middle-aged store manager was naturally amazed. It's just that what surprised him even more was after that!
At Yakumo's request, with the curiosity to see what Yakumo Azusa could do, the middle-aged store manager agreed to lend her some tools to try her skills.
What I didn't expect was that even the techniques and techniques used to make desserts were full of roughness, and no matter how you look at it, I was a novice in making desserts for the first time
You can learn the simple dessert immediately after just reading it, and it only takes one practice opportunity to go from beginner to proficient.
Even the more complex pastries only need to be watched once, and after two or three trials, they can already make something unusually decent.
With a delicate appearance like a doll, wanting to defend his current life and his brother's great ideals with his own hands, the favor owed by his son, and this peerless talent that anyone will see and love all these factors, even the thought process can be ignored, and the middle-aged store manager quickly agrees to give Yakumo Azusa the opportunity to work, even if it is only "free help".
After that, Yakumo Azusa still learned to make desserts at an astonishing rate.
It took less than a day to go from a rookie who only knew theory to a level that could rival ordinary active pastry chefs. The transition from an ordinary person who is on par with an ordinary current pastry chef to an elite chef whose dessert level is only inferior to the manager in the store is a matter of the third day after work.
Until now, Yakumo's dessert making skills have been on a par with the store manager, and they have maintained such a high level of impartiality.
Is it the monster-like talent that has come to an end on the road to desserts, or is it the middle-aged store manager who has no intention of surpassing the kind kind work given to her, or is it just that the person concerned is simply not interested in further honing her skills?
Anyway, Yakumo Zi didn't plan to say it, and the middle-aged store manager didn't deliberately ask, so the matter was over.
The above is what Ruoxi Wan and Ji Yuehua don't know about Yakumo Zi's job search experience and first work experience.
After the dessert was made, the middle-aged store manager gave the freshly made dessert to Ruoxiwan and the two, and warmly welcomed the two to visit the store again.
After that, another week or so passed.
Sometimes, Ruoxi Wan has nothing to do during the day, so she will lead Ji Yuehua to visit Yakumo Zi in the pastry shop, and buy vegetables on the way home, etc., Gradually, Ji Yuehua also memorizes the road from home to the pastry shop.
It's just that outside of that, Yakumo Zi gets up early and goes to bed late, works during the day, and stays next to Ruoxiwan at night to watch her deal with household matters, but the situation has continued. Seeing that her dark circles are getting worse day by day, but she can't drive her back to her room to sleep, Ruo Xiwan's heart is also extremely anxious.
Until one day when Yakumo Zi was on vacation, Ruoxi Wan and Yakumo Zi saw something when they went out shopping alone, and they had a plan.
"Woo, Satsuki~ Look at you, this is the beauty product that Wan and I just bought from the street-face mask. Awesome, right?~"
Gently and skillfully opened the box on the table, Ruoxi Wan picked up a snow-white thing from it and raised it in the direction of Xiao Ji Yuehua.
Soft, pure white, a thin piece, judging from the design of the three holes, if there is no accident, it is something that is applied to the face.
"Oh, it looks so expensive, but Sister Zi, you are also a girl after all, so it's not too much to spend a little bit on this, right?"
Although I don't know what Ruo Xiwan is holding in her hands, but I have lived with my two sisters for so long, and my common sense has grown a lot, and I still understand the word "beauty", and I can probably know what type of thing it is.
Judging the value of the things in the box from the exquisite packaging box, Xiao Ji Yuehua looked at the things in Ruoxiwan's hand with glowing eyes and said, "Then again, one, two, three, four, five, six, although this box looks quite big, there are only six masks in it?" Hawkers, it looks like it's enough for you to use Sister Zi for three days~"
Subconsciously judging that this is something that the two sisters bought for their own use, it is also a reasonable idea.
After all, boys don't need beauty, at least compared to women, they don't need sex so much.
Secondly, no matter what the money is, my sister earns it. In Ji Yuehua's heart, the two sisters are his closest, most respected, and favorite people in the world. The sisters are beautiful and can do anything, and the best things must be left to the sisters.
Who knows, after listening to Ji Yuehua's words, Yakumo Zi shook his head, "Three days?" No, it's two days. Also, it's not you, it's us. ”
"I'm not right, we? Wouldn't I have to use a face mask?"
"Huh? It's a pity, Satsuki. That's what Azusa means. ”
With a brisk pace, Ruoxi Wan handed a mask to Ji Yuehua's hand.
Slowly took the mask handed over by Ruo Xiwan, and a soft feeling came from his fingertips, which was a gift from his sisters.
Just as Ji Yuehua was quietly staring at the thing in her hand, looking at the childlike surprised expression of her baby brother, Yakumo Zi's face also showed a smile, "Even if Satsuki is a boy, she still needs to pay attention to her skin." ”
"That's it, it's rare that Xiaoyue has such a beautiful face, if you don't protect it well, what kind of system will it be? I used this excuse to force Azusa to agree to buy it!"
While speaking, he also made a gesture of victory, and Yakumo Zi couldn't help but glance at Ruoxiwan when he saw this, "Being able to say the word excuse openly, you guys are also wonderful." If not"
"Got it, got it." If it weren't for Satsuki, I wouldn't have agreed to buy this thing and come back, "You want to say that, right?"
"I'm too lazy to care about you!! I'm going to wash the vegetables!"
He grimaced in the direction of Yakumo, and turned around angrily before carrying his things and walking towards the kitchen.
Seeing Ji You's back walk into the kitchen door, Ruo Xiwan's face had a little complicated look, and then when she turned her head to look at Ji Yuehua, her face had changed back to the signature sunny smile.
"Woo, Satsuki, sister, let me ask you a question."
"Huh?"
"Do you like Sister Azusa?"
"I like it!!" Xiao Ji Yuehua nodded heavily.
"So you want to see your sister's skin deteriorate, right?"
"It's not mm
Before Ji Yuehua could shout, he pressed his mouth. When Ji Yuehua gradually calmed down, Ruoxi Wan let go of the hand holding his mouth, pressed his lips with a finger, and said with a smile on his face, "Sister, I'll tell you a secret quietly!" A secret that can keep Sister Azusa from wrinkles. ”
Seeing that at this point, Ji Yuehua's face had already put on a look of listening attentively, Ruo Xiwan nodded with satisfaction, and then attached her mouth to Xiao Ji Yuehua's ear, "Look, sister, didn't we buy some masks and come back?" Although that thing is useful for skin maintenance, it is also a palliative not a cure, and the biggest problem your sister Zi is facing now is that she refuses to go to bed earlier even though she has to work. I'll teach you a solution, your sister Zi is hurting the most now, Xiaoyue, you. From today onwards, Xiaoyue, after you have dinner and take a bath, you will take your sister Zi to apply a mask together, and your sister Zi will definitely not refuse you. That's half the battle. When you put on the mask, it's good to chat, whatever, in short, you have to pester your sister Azusa not to let her leave the room. Then wait until the time to apply the mask has passed, and then use the excuse that you want to sleep, and hold your sister's arm. Your sister will definitely not be ruthless and break your hand away. In this way, holding her hand tightly until she fell asleep, so that she could not get out, and I think she would soon be unable to resist the intrusion of the Sandman and fall asleep. ”
"However, wouldn't it be a little bad to do this without Sister Zi's consent?"
"Stupid." Gently flicking Ji Yuehua's forehead, Ruoxi Wan whispered, "The so-called boys, sometimes you have to be tougher." You're thinking about your sister Zizi, right?"
"Hmm"
"In that case, don't hesitate. For the sake of the other person, sometimes there are some things that have to be ignored by the will of others! Girls are all wrong-mouthed, and maybe you'll be happy to see you think about her, understand?"
Seeing Ji Yuehua nodded, Ruo Xiwan's face couldn't help but show a reassuring smile.
Although it is true that Ji Yuehua is being used, it is not a way for Yakumo Zi to continue like this, and it is only a matter of time before he is exhausted.
On the one hand, it can make Yakumo Zi have a good rest, and on the other hand, it can also meet the needs of Ji Yuehua, who usually doesn't make willful demands, to be coquettish to her sister, and if you really want to say it, you can kill two birds with one stone
Forgive my sister.
Stroking Ji Yuehua's little head, Ruoxi Wan whispered in her heart.
