Chapter 6: A Girl's Heart
The kitchen is a rectangular space of about three or four square meters, there is no range hood, only a ventilation fan on the window, it stands to reason that such a kitchen is usually greasy, but Xu Bin looked around, there is no place that is not clean and connoisseurship, even the old white tiles are only slightly yellowed because of the perennial fireworks, but they still shine with a clean luster, it can be seen that the owner of this kitchen is very particular, and may even have a habit of cleanliness, because Xu Bin noticed that even the ventilation fan is not a trace of greasy.
The electric oven glows with a warm orange glow, and the chiffon cake in the mold glows with an enticing caramel color.
Gu Tiantian took the cooking utensils that had just been thrown to the ground by Gu's father and began to brush it repeatedly.
There is a fixed wooden board on the wall, and when people enter the kitchen, they put the wooden board down and rest it on the countertop, which becomes a one-meter-square workbench.
Tian Tian smiled at Xu Bin a little shyly: "The kitchen is too narrow, so it won't affect the operation, the cake is about to be baked, please Curator Xu take some pictures of the process of making the cake, the process of decorating and the final product need to be filmed, it's troublesome." ”
"Well, by the way, Curator Xu just calls me Tiantian, my real name is Gu Tiantian, I am going to put these pictures on the Internet, I am selling cakes in the same city on the Internet, and the sales are not very good now, I think there will be a little better with more beautiful photos." ”
It can be seen that Gu Tiantian is a little nervous and a little uncomfortable, maybe she doesn't often communicate with strangers, especially a strange man.
Xu Bin nodded, the light in the kitchen was not very good, only a narrow small window with a cold energy-saving lamp.
Generally speaking, pastry photography requires clear and bright light, with a little warm light, so that the food can appear clean and delicate and arouse people's appetite.
Since Gu Tiantian's kitchen did not have such conditions, Xu Bin had no choice but to create conditions for himself.
"The light here is not suitable for shooting food, but we can turn off the lights, use the shimmer light outside the window to simulate the dusk environment, and then apply warm colors to chase the light, take a set of warm photos, if we are not satisfied, we can take it again, now I need to turn off the lights, and the windows are half off." ”
The two reached an agreement and began to get busy, Xu Bin tossed his equipment, and Gu Tiantian put the tools needed on the square board.
It's just that there was a scolding voice outside the kitchen that was not so coordinated: "If you are told to fall in love seriously, you don't talk about it, Aunt Wu of the vegetable field will not go to see the object introduced to you, you think you are something, so precious, and call a wild man back from outside, the lonely man and widow also turn off the lights and open the door, the cabbage that Lao Tzu has raised for more than 20 years can't let the wild boar arch and open the door." ”
Knock knock, the kitchen door was slammed, Gu Tiantian bit the corner of her mouth, tears kept rolling, and tried to squeeze out an apologetic expression to Xu Bin, she didn't know what to say for a while, her body trembled slightly, her chest kept rising and falling, and she was panting heavily.
This is someone's housework, Xu Bin frowned, obviously he was not in a very good mood, but housework should not involve himself in a door-to-door shooting.
Xu Bin opened the kitchen door suddenly, Old Man Gu stared at people with big eyes, and when he saw that he was about to scold again, Xu Bin smiled and blocked back: "Old man, scolding is quite imposing, I will help you record." Xu Bin shook his phone.
"How you want to scold your daughter, I don't care as an outsider, but I am the photographer who your daughter invited to come to the door to take pictures of making pastries for her, if you continue to insult or attack me in your words, I will give this recording as evidence to the lawyer, why don't you see you in court, not for defamation, but also for you to infringe on my right to reputation." ”
Old man Gu swallowed his saliva, the momentum he had just pulled up was suddenly a little shorter, what people who don't have much money are most afraid of is actually everything related to money, but after two seconds, Old Man Gu came back to his senses: "Scare me, hum, it's worth hiring a lawyer for such a small matter, I don't think you are a well-known photographer, and you take this kind of door-to-door work, you have the ability to sue me, you sue!"
Xu Bin sneered: "If you don't believe in evil, you can scold, when the time comes, don't say that I didn't notify you in advance when I receive a court summons." Xu Bin said, turning his phone into a camera function, and the camera was facing Old Man Gu.
"You...... You ......" Old man Gu trembled angrily, and he couldn't tell whether what Xu Bin said was true or false for a while, now it is a society ruled by law, and there are not a few people who go to court for a little thing, but they often watch the news and know that someone is so real.
After a stalemate for a few minutes, Old Man Gu sat back on the sofa and drank a big sip of tea to suppress the shock: "Hmph, what kind of lights to turn off when you shoot the cake." ”
Xu Bin thought about it, and in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, he replied: "Simulate the light source at dusk." With that, he went into the kitchen and closed the door again.
Xu Bin smiled apologetically at Gu Tiantian: "I'm sorry, then talk to your father." ”
Gu Tiantian waved her hand quickly: "No, no, it should be me who apologizes, he ...... It's okay to scold me, but I shouldn't have scolded you too, I can't help him, I can't help you, I'm sorry......"
Xu Bin shrugged his shoulders and said that as long as it doesn't affect his work, it's fine.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, Gu Tiantian nodded silently, and Xu Bin adjusted the reflector and camera to get ready to start working.
Gu Tiantian, who made the cake, seemed to be a different person, her expression was serious and confident, and there was a honey smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was doing a very happy thing, her dexterous hands kept carrying out the step-by-step process in an orderly manner, and the grievances and sadness when she argued with her father at first were like water vapor that had been sunburned, and it evaporated in the blink of an eye.
Xu Bin saw the milky white spatula filling the yellow cake layer with red strawberry jam little by little, and then slowly covered with milky white cream, and then several red and purple roses of different sizes were formed little by little with a pair of white and dexterous hands operating the piping bag.
"Strawberry jam is made from fresh strawberries I bought myself in the spring, the red pigment is made with amaranth, the green is spinach, the yellow is made with pumpkin, the purple is made with purple potatoes, and the orange is carrots. ”
"The other ingredients are also very good, like milk, I just bought Australian fresh milk from Yijia supermarket, I hope that the people who eat my cake can feel safe and happy, today this 'girl's heart' is a father for his seventeen-year-old daughter, I hope his daughter can feel the blessing from his father, like these roses, blooming delicate and beautiful. ”
Gu Tian chattered this, raised his face, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he showed a big smile at Xu Bin, and Xu Bin naturally pressed the shutter.
Xu Bin thought to himself: At this second, you are like your name......
