Chapter 136: Sweet Potato Vermicelli
Because the portraits of Erbao and Sanbao were to be hung in the store, Jiang Mian did not let Gu Yanning paint a full likeness, but only retained four or five points of resemblance and a few points of charm.
The people in the portrait are chubby, naΓ―ve, and blessed.
Erbao and Sanbao couldn't put it down while holding the portrait, and they refused to hand over the portrait when they said anything, saying that they would not hang it in the store, but would hang it in their own room!
Jiang Mian couldn't cry or laugh.
"If you want to hang it in your room, you might as well call your father to paint you a full portrait."
Speaking of this, Jiang Mian patted Gu Yanning, "Draw a portrait of each of the cubs?" β
Gu Yanning nodded.
"Draw another family portrait."
"Okay, I was about to tell you this, but I'll draw this when Wangcai comes back, right?"
Gu Yanning shook his head, "I remember his appearance." β
Jiang Mian rubbed his head, "Then my Ning cub is awesome!" β
Gu Yanning went to the room and took out the paint and paintbrush at the bottom of the pressure box.
Gu Yanning paints gongbi paintings. Before painting the second and third treasures, he had already painted many paintings for Jiang Mian, and each one was rolled up and placed in a wooden box.
If Jiang Mian hadn't discovered it by chance, she really didn't know that Gu Yanning had this skill.
Gu Yanning's artistic skills are really full.
Gu Yanning's line drawing speed is very fast.
Each cub has a portrait of himself, even Mu Shaohong, Mu Shaoyan and Shi Xiaoshan are no exception.
A group of cubs sat in a row in the yard, bandaged rocks and hills, grinning and laughing in pain.
The stone and the hill are the same as the big treasures, they have not seen much of the world, and they are precious to the portraits, and they are maintaining their best appearance by sitting on the stool.
And Mu Shaohong and Mu Shaoyan, they don't know how many portraits they have from childhood to adulthood, and they are still full of expectations for Gu Yanning's unfinished portrait.
Even Mu Bai quipped: "These two boys don't like portraits the most, every year a painter in the house comes to paint a portrait, and they can't sit still." Brother Xiao, you paint them, they are settled, sitting on that stool and never moving. β
"Brother Xiao, you can draw me a picture too!" Mu Bai saw that everyone had it, and felt that he couldn't be the only one present who didn't have a portrait.
Gu Yanning said: "Don't paint. β
Mu Bai was surprised by this answer.
"Why?" He couldn't help but ask.
"If you don't paint, you won't paint!" Gu Yanning refused for no reason.
Jiang Mian pursed his lips and smiled, this vinegar jar, the vinegar hasn't passed yet?
"Then you will draw a family portrait of our family?" Mu Bai asked without giving up, won't he even give the child's face?
Gu Yanning really didn't want to give it, but Jiang Mian patted him on the shoulder.
Gu Yanning's refusal turned around, "I don't know what your lady looks like." β
"Haven't you seen it? I've seen it several times. β
Gu Yanning was rarely silent, he turned his head and asked Jiang Mian: "Have you seen it?" β
Jiang Mian knocked on his head, "If you think about it carefully, it's the woman I talked to yesterday, the beautiful one." β
Gu Yanning seemed to remember, he pursed his mouth, "My lady is good-looking." β
Mu Bai: ......
"Remember? Can you draw that? β
Gu Yanning said, "Yes." β
He took another piece of paper, and Lin Yun drew it with a sad face.
Ginger cotton: ......
Jiang Mian said decisively to Mu Bai: "I'll draw a family portrait for you next time." β
Mu Bai picked up Gu Yanning's sketch, glanced at it, coughed lightly, and then stuffed the sketch into his sleeve.
Isn't this the face of the Lin family yesterday? This sad face is indeed not very suitable for a family photo.
"Okay, okay, I'll bring her next time. Brother Xiao, okay, you can't go back. β
Gu Yanning raised his chin and said that he had made every word he had said, and it was difficult for the horse to chase.
The line drawings have all been drawn, and it's time to color.
The cubs were all around Gu Yanning, chattering.
"Wow, Daddy, you painted my eyes so well!" Sambo said.
"Dad, I don't think I'm smiling well enough, can you draw me another one?" Erbao said.
"Dad, can't you draw me taller and stronger?" Dabao asked.
"Daddy, Daddy! Four Treasures wants to add a piece of cake here! Sibao said.
"Me too, I want to add a piece of cake here, and I have to draw butterflies on my head, no, I have to draw butterflies all around!" Sambo said.
"Uncle Gu, I want to draw a bag of sparrows here, and I want to add a slingshot to my hand." Mu Shaohong said.
"Uncle Gu, I also want to be like my brother." Mu Shaoyan said.
β¦β¦
The scene was extremely lively, and Jiang Mian hurriedly slipped away to the kitchen to cook.
And Mu Bai sat on the side and watched Gu Yanning have a headache, and his expression was not too gloating.
In the end, each cub got a portrait that he was satisfied with.
-
Ten days later
Jiang Mian and Gu Yanning inspect Mu Bai's newly built workshop.
I have to say that Mu Bai's mobility is really strong, but in just a few days, a simple workshop has been set up.
Following Jiang Mian's advice, the steps of making vermicelli are divided into six steps, and one group is responsible for one step.
First, the sweet potatoes are cleaned, and then the sweet potatoes are ground into a batter, and the sweet potato flour is obtained and then the ingredients are added to thicken.
Originally, this later step was to add alum and noodles, but alum is not good for the body, and alum contains metal aluminum, which is easy to damage the brain when consumed for a long time.
Jiang Mian flipped through the books in the space for a long time before he configured a safer source of strength.
After deciding to make vermicelli a few days ago, Jiang Mian gave Gu Dali's formula to Gu Dali and them, and let them produce it in large quantities in the mountains.
After the noodles are reconciled, the vermicelli begins to leak.
Finally, take it out to dry.
Looking at the sweet potato noodles in the courtyard, Mu Bai had already begun to calculate how much he could earn, and the corners of his mouth were put away all day long.
"Sister-in-law, I have already sold the batch of vermicelli I made last time in my restaurant, and I have been asking when I can order that vermicelli pork recently. My restaurant is about to be crowded. By the way, my chefs are thinking about new dishes, and when the time comes, I will call you to come to my house to eat. β
"Hehe, Brother Xiao, tell me the family photo ......"
Gu Yanning gave him the picture scroll in the baggage, not only their family photos, but also the portraits of Mu Shaohong and Mu Shaoyan.
Mu Bai looked at the two clever sons in the portrait, and sighed: "Since these two boys came back from your house, they really can't sit still for a day, and they shout every day to find Dabao and them to play." I have made up my mind that I will send them to school at the beginning of the year, so that they don't know how to play all day long. β
"Do you want to send it to the academy? Which school? Dabao and Erbao have reached the age of going to school. β
"I plan to send them to Zhiyu Academy, although there are more bundles, but the masters there are good learners."
Jiang Mian said: "Zhiyu Academy? Is there an entrance exam? β
"Yes, but this does not affect admission, and the entrance exam is only set to teach students according to their aptitude, so my sister-in-law does not need to be nervous."
Because of the affairs of the academy, Jiang Mian and Gu Yanning did not stay in Zhuangzi for a long time, thinking that they would inspect the academy to see if it was worth entering.
Before leaving, Jiang Mian also gave Mu Bai the formula of the gluten power source.
"It's about the quality of the noodles, so you have to take good care of them."
Mu Bai naturally put away the formula cautiously.
