On the way back to the hotel, when passing by a pharmacy, Shen Mingzhu stopped by and bought some first-aid medicines, baby mosquito repellent and medicated oil for mosquito bites that could not be bought in Fengcheng.

Guoguo's skin is delicate, and it always attracts mosquitoes, and a bite is a big red envelope.

At the checkout, he saw a band-aid on the shelf next to the cash register, and Shen Mingzhu took two large boxes of them.

Band-aids are also rare in Fengcheng, and they are difficult to buy in general pharmacies.

Back in the hotel room, Shen Mingzhu remembered the red envelope given by Pei Ke, and when she opened it, it was actually five Hong Kong dollars with a denomination of 1,000.

Pei Ke lives in public housing, and the layout of the home is quite simple, not like the economic conditions are particularly good.

However, the other party has been working hard in Hong Kong City for more than ten or twenty years, and he has not been married, so it is not surprising that he has saved some money in his hands.

Thinking of this, Shen Mingzhu put five Hong Kong dollars into her wallet with peace of mind, planning to go to the mall to buy some snacks and toys for the children.

In the evening, Shen Mingzhu rejected Yan Su's invitation to take her to play, and went to the baking kitchen alone to practice the pastries to be made tomorrow.

The charity dinner was organized by a very well-known charitable foundation in Hong Kong City, and the venue, food, wine, etc., were sponsored by various families or enterprises.

The Ning family sponsors dim sum.

There are a total of 10 pastry chefs, each of whom is responsible for two pastries.

Shen Mingzhu's dim sum is snow skin mooncakes and Xue Mei Niang.

She has long been familiar with the practice of these two dim sums, and this practice is just to adapt to the new environment and find a feel.

After practicing his own dim sum, Shen Mingzhu observed and learned the skills and works of other pastry chefs by the way, and gained a lot.

……

The next day, Shen Mingzhu got up early in the morning.

After breakfast, it was just after 8 o'clock when I got to the baking kitchen.

I thought she had arrived relatively early, but when she arrived, she found that the other pastry chefs had arrived, and some had even started to produce them.

Shen Mingzhu also had a sense of urgency, and quickly changed into work clothes and started to get busy.

It was busy until 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and 100 snowy mooncakes and 100 snow Mei Niang were completed.

Although there were nearly 1,000 guests at the dinner, the number of each meal and snack preparation was not very large due to the wide variety of dishes.

After all, those who are qualified to attend the dinner are all leaders in various industries, celebrities and celebrities, and it is too late to socialize, and no one will stare at something to eat.

After the other pastry chefs finished their products, the material basins were basically empty.

Only the material basin in front of Shen Mingzhu still had a lot of fillings, fruit pieces, cream and dough left.

The other pastry chefs all gave her strange looks.

The supervisor in charge of dim sum also reprimanded her for being unprofessional, and she couldn't even grasp how many materials she needed.

It wasn't until Shen Mingzhu said that he would spend money to buy the unused materials that the dim sum supervisor stopped.

The finished snacks were pulled away by the waiter in a small cart, and the pastry chef finished his job and left one after another.

Soon, only Shen Mingzhu was left in the baking room.

She covered the basin tightly with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator to keep it fresh, and then changed her clothes and planned to go back to the room to rest for a while.

When I arrived at the door of the room, I found that Pei Ke was coming, walking around with his hands behind his back, and I don't know how long he waited, and there were a lot of things piled up at his feet.

"Uncle."

Seeing her, Peike had a smile on his face.

"You left in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't get anything for you, but I bought some today, and you brought Ziheng and Guoguo back, all of them are food and clothing."

Shen Mingzhu didn't say anything polite to the other party, and after thanking him, he took the things back to the room.

After that, Pei Ke had a light meal at the hotel's Chinese restaurant.

By the time I got back to my room, it was half past six.

Shen Mingzhu fell on the bed and didn't want to move.

From the morning to now, nearly ten hours of high-intensity physical exertion, tired and paralyzed.

She just wanted a good night's sleep.

……

In a daze, the door was slammed.

Shen Mingzhu got up from the bed and opened the door, it was the dim sum supervisor who had reprimanded her before.

Seeing that she was sleepy-eyed, the supervisor pulled her over, "Something is wrong, hurry, you hurry up and follow me to the baking room." ”

As soon as he heard that something had happened, Shen Mingzhu woke up instantly from drowsiness.

I didn't bother to wash my face and comb my hair, so I put on my shoes and hurried out.

Along the way, Shen Mingzhu knocked on the side and asked several times, but the supervisor didn't say anything, which provoked Shen Mingzhu to guess what was going on.

"Quick, you hurry up and make another hundred snowy mooncakes and Xue Mei Niang."

As soon as she entered the baking room, the dim sum supervisor hurriedly ordered her.

"Director Xu, you hurriedly called me over for this?"

"Yes, ouch, this dinner has not officially started, and the snow skin mooncakes and Xue Meiniang have been taken away, and now the two empty plates are placed there, how ugly!"

Shen Mingzhu quickly took out the materials in the refrigerator, rolled up his sleeves and began to work.

With the help of Director Xu and two other pastry chefs, a hundred snowy mooncakes and Xue Meiniang were ready in half an hour.

After the waiter brought the snowy skin mooncakes and Xue Meiniang to the banquet, Director Xu patted Shen Mingzhu on the shoulder with relief.

"It's good that you have a lot of materials, otherwise there will be an accident tonight!"

After saying that, he thought to himself, "You did it on purpose?" ”

"I like to be prepared, and I have enough confidence in myself."

Shen Mingzhu used the leftover leftovers in the material basin to make snowy mooncakes for Director Xu and the two pastry chefs who helped to taste Xue Meiniang.

After eating, all three gave her a thumbs up.

"I didn't expect that there are such delicious pastries in the mainland, and I can teach such an excellent apprentice as you, presumably your master is even more powerful."

"I don't have a master, and I made these dim sum by myself."

Hearing this, the two pastry chefs were surprised.

It took them ten years or more to stand here, from apprenticeship to apprenticeship to apprenticeship, to become famous, to say the least.

Shen Mingzhu is young, and he can make such a delicious and novel dim sum just by thinking about it himself, and such a talent can't help but make them jealous.

Seeing that the time was about the same, Shen Mingzhu went back to the room to change clothes and makeup, and prepared to attend the dinner.

Although she didn't have an invitation, she could go in in the name of Yan Su's companion.

The two made an appointment to meet at the door of the banquet hall at eight o'clock.

But at 8:05, Yan Su didn't show up, and she couldn't stand at the door of the banquet hall as a pillar all the time, so she raised her feet and went to the café next to her.

The café is open-air with round glass tables and rattan chairs.

Shen Mingzhu found a place where he could see the door of the banquet hall and sat down.

As soon as I sat down, there was a Cantonese conversation behind me, "Who made you die to save face, you have to wear it hard if you are half a size smaller, your heels are bleeding, and you will have to dance for a while, what are you going to do?" ”

Another young female voice sounded: "These shoes match my skirt, what can I do." ”

Shen Mingzhu turned her head and saw a beautiful girl in a silver sequined backless dress, sitting with her back to her, frowning and observing her injured heel.

She hesitated, opened her pouch, took out the two spare Band-Aids and handed them over. (End of chapter)
