The firewood picked up by the eight people was piled together, and there was also a large bundle. Everyone agreed that it was more than enough for a meal.
Like a magic trick, Xu Jiaojiao took out a bag of flour and six salted duck eggs: "Look what I brought?"
When everyone saw that she had brought flour, they were very frustrated. They brought this kind of thing in the wild, and they deliberately didn't want them to eat. Everyone complained that Xu Jiaojiao was unreliable in handling things. Originally, she was expected to bring some fish and have a big meal, but now it seems that she can only eat noodles.
Xu Jiaojiao said: "I heard that the lotus cake made by Yanxi will bloom, so I specially brought flour and salted duck eggs to witness the miracle."
After everyone heard this, they became interested, and looked at Yan Xi eagerly: "Yan Xi, show me your hand?"
Yan Xi glanced at the flour and salted duck eggs in Xu Jiaojiao's hands, and said, "It can be done, but we can't get enough of a lotus cake, can we?"
Xu Jiaojiao said: "Give our rice to other groups, and let them have some food later."
A boy turned his head and looked at the group next to him. On a step, he built a simple stove with two bricks, but the firewood he picked up was a bit damp, and one of them was lying on the ground, blowing hard there. The fire was not lit, and a puff of thick smoke came out, blinding the man's eyes. He quickly got up, hid aside and coughed.
"Count on them enough."
Xu Jiaojiao took out the lighter and the ignition materials she brought from home: "It's their food, go over and do me a favor."
Yang Fan gave them something and ran back immediately.
Yan Xi has already started kneading the dough, put some grape juice in it, the flour suddenly turned light pink, and put some lard in it. Put the salted duck eggs into boiling water and cook them until they are almost cooked, take them out, the egg yolks are not needed, and mash the egg yolks into powder.
The students heard that Yanxi was going to make lotus cakes, which would still bloom, so they gathered around to see how the lotus cakes bloomed.
Xiang Bo in the tea field saw a group of people gathered together, and said to Yi Jingchen, "What are they doing? Why are they all gathered in one place?"
Yi Jingchen stood up and indeed saw a group of people gathered in a circle, as if they were watching something exciting.
He immediately decided to check it out.
Xiang Bo hesitated: "Is it suitable?"
"suitable."
When the two walked to the crowd, everyone's eyes were on Yan Xi's hands, and no one noticed them. It was actually squeezed in by two people.
The pink dough was divided one by one, and Yan Xi rolled the powdered egg yolk into small balls, and wrapped them in the dough as fillings.
After finishing all this, a cross-shaped cut was made on it with a knife.
Xu Jiaojiao stared at the dough and asked, "How did it bloom?"
Yan Xi said, "Is the oil pan ready?"
Yang Fan has already lit the fire.
Yan Xi poured a small pot of oil into the pot.
Put the dough in, and Yan Xi poured hot oil on the edge of the knife. After high-temperature frying, the layers of openings were indeed cracked, like a blooming lotus flower, delicate and beautiful. The classmates were stunned. Even Mr. Shi couldn't help but exclaimed, looking at the lotus cake that was fished out, couldn't help but said: "This is not food, it is clearly a work of art!"
A total of ten lotus cakes were made, like ten lotus flowers blooming on a plate.
Yi Jingchen looked at Yan Xi with admiration and pride. He knew that Yan Xi was different from others, no matter how difficult the days were, she could still live poetically. But he didn't expect her to be so miraculous, like a flower desperately blooming among a bunch of dead trees, fragrant and beautiful alone.
Xu Jiaojiao swallowed, she really wanted to eat, but no one moved, she felt a little embarrassed.
Yang Fan did not forget to respect his teacher, and said to Teacher Shi: "Mr. Shi, you should try one first."
Teacher Shi was really reluctant to put down his chopsticks, hesitated, scraped off a petal with a spoon, and put it in his mouth. Everyone looked at her, she savored it carefully, and then gave a heartfelt thumbs up.
Ten lotus flower cakes were snatched up, and Yan Xi didn't even eat them.
Xiang Bo licked his lips, walked quietly to Yan Xi's side, and said, "Yan Xi, make me a lotus flower cake anytime."
It was only then that Yan Xi realized that Yi Jingchen was standing opposite her. When she saw that there was no scum left on the plate, she looked at the two of them apologetically: "Next time I have time, I'll make it for you."
Yi Jingchen said: "Leave us alone, hurry up and eat."
Xu Jiaojiao served Yan Xi a bowl of rice in a very doggy manner, but there was no food.
Yi Jingchen took out a bag of mustard from his pocket and gave it to Yan Xi.
Yan Xi was surprised: "Why did you bring this?"
Yi Jingchen said: "In case of emergencies."
Xiang Bo joked: "Anyway, I have thought of all your emergency needs for this mountain climbing, and all I have to do is call an ambulance to wait at the foot of the mountain."
Yan Xi found a cleaner step and sat down, and Yi Jingchen sat down beside her, holding a bag of mustard in his hand that had been unpacked, and held it in front of Yan Xi. Yan Xi picked up some pickled mustard, and said to Yi Jingchen: "Don't hold it like this, you are not a dining table."
"As long as you enjoy your meal, I'd be happy to be your dining table."
"Did you have meal?"
"No."
Yan Xi looked at the pots of other groups, and said, "There must be some who haven't finished their meal, I'll fill some for you."
Yi Jingchen said: "No, I brought bread and fruit, that's enough."
"Is it really not necessary?"
"It's really unnecessary."
Xiang Bo walked up behind the two of them, and said to Yan Xi pitifully: "He doesn't use it, I use it. Bread and fruit were not given to me, they are all for you in case of emergencies."
Yan Xi smiled, and shouted at Xu Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, please bring me another bowl of rice."
Xu Jiaojiao agreed, and soon a bowl of rice was served to Xiang Bo. He saw that Yi Jingchen was holding mustard in his hand, and asked, "Yi Jingchen, do you want it?"
Yi Jingchen said, "I don't want it."
Xiang Bo jokingly said: "He is sentient to drink enough water."
Yi Jingchen gave him a sideways look: "Eating can't keep your mouth shut."
Xiang Bo stopped talking and concentrated on eating. I was too focused on eating, and I didn't come back to my senses until I finished eating more than half of it. I was actually eating rice all the time. He looked up and saw that Yi Jingchen was still holding the bag of mustard, and stretched out his chopsticks with a smile.
"What are you doing?" Yi Jingchen was startled by the suddenly protruding chopsticks, and almost instinctively withdrew his hand.
Xiang Bo pointed to his white rice: "I'm eating rice, give me some mustard."
Seeing his appearance, Xu Jiaojiao was about to cry, and pleaded for him: "It's so pitiful, can you give him some?"
Yan Xi took mustard from Yi Jingchen's hand and handed it to Xiang Bo: "Eat it, I don't need it."
"Thank you, thank you!" Xiang Bo took the mustard, and did not forget to slap Yan Xi's ass, "To be honest, Yan Xi, at first, Yi Jingchen treated you like this. Embarrass us boys. But today I saw you making lotus cakes and realized that you are worth it! Really, Yan Xi, you are worthy of all the best things in the world!"
