The black-bellied prince: the little princess of the chef

Chapter 683 Making Zongzi 2
"It's folded down in the middle, you've folded it in half!" Looking at his elder brother with a big head, Ye Qing hated iron for being weak.This is all taught by hand, how come the stupid brother still can't learn it, is it because he is sleepy and can't see whether it is down or folded in half?

Smiling and blinking, he said that he must study hard.After a few fiddlings, he finally got it right.Sweeping over everyone's hands, seeing that everyone has learned a lot, Ye Qing also started to start the next lesson, filling glutinous rice!
"Put the mixed glutinous rice into the folded zong leaves, and spread the glutinous rice evenly. Be careful that no glutinous rice leaks from the bottom! If there is any glutinous rice, pour it out and fold the zong leaves again. Then put our red dates Put one fruit pulp on top of the glutinous rice, and then cover the jujube with a layer of glutinous rice, but don’t put too much, if there is too much, it will be difficult to close the zong leaves later!”

After checking what everyone had done, and pointing out that they had put too much glutinous rice, they returned to their seats, and then explained how to make zongzi: "Put the upper half of the zongzi leaves over the glutinous rice and red dates, and press tightly without letting go. If the zong leaves are too short to cover the stuffing, you can cover it with another zong leaf and press it tightly. Yes, that's it, you guys did a great job!"

"Now there are three corners. The fourth corner is very difficult to get. You can see clearly! Hold the rice dumpling with your left hand, press the upper half of the rice dumpling leaf that just covered the stuffing, and fold the rice dumpling leaf down with your right hand , there will be a corner that will not leak, which is the fourth corner. The left hand should press the rice dumpling leaves tightly, and the left and right hands should cooperate to wrap the thread around the rice dumpling. If the winding is tight, the final rice dumpling will be tight! After finishing the thread, tie a beautiful knot, and a beautiful rice dumpling is complete!"

Seeing her deftly wrapping a zongzi, everyone admired her.He clearly saw the process clearly, but it was extremely rare to operate it, and felt that it was an impossible thing to complete.

"Miss Ye, do you think this is right?"

The aunt wrapped the thread in a decent manner, and then presented the zongzi in front of everyone. Although it didn't look very good, at least it had four corners!I don't know how many times better than the ones packed by the guys!

"That's right, it's the way auntie wraps it. The fourth corner can be folded more sharply, and it will look much better!"

"Okay, I'll try again!"

Seeing that someone had already wrapped one, and he was just starting to pack the glutinous rice, Ye Junbei speeded up a little bit unwillingly, awkwardly folded the zong leaves out of the fourth corner, and clumsily took out a thread and started carefully After tying the thread and bringing it in front of Ye Qing, the rice dumplings he wrapped scattered all over the ground, and a goddess came to scatter the flowers.

"Pfft, Junbei, you're a heavenly maid who scatter flowers!"

"It's a shame to waste food!"

"I told you to tie it tight, and the thread needs to be tightly wound to tie the knot!" Ye Qing frowned and looked at him with dissatisfaction. No one else made mistakes, why did he always have problems!
He squeezed himself secretly, cleaned up the ground he had soiled, and sat down on the stool again after washing his hands, warning himself in his heart not to be in a hurry.Starting from folding the zong leaves, every step is done very carefully, for fear of making the same mistake just now.When he wrapped the zongzi and put them in front of Ye Qing, he really got a burst of praise: "Well, not bad. Keep up the good work!"

After he finished wrapping the first zongzi, the fellows finished one after another, asking Ye Qing to check.Although the zongzi made by them are not as good-looking as Ye Qing's, they are not bad.After receiving the praise, everyone raised their fighting spirit one after another, even the drowsiness was wiped out, and they stood upright to fight against the glutinous rice and zong leaves in their hands.After teaching them to make four-cornered rice dumplings, they were taught to make three-cornered rice dumplings, from candied date rice dumplings to salted meat rice dumplings, and the ingredients were finished in a short while.

"Miss Ye, will anyone buy these zongzi tomorrow?"

Pointing to the zongzi spread out on the table, the guys also had some doubts.It was the first time for them to see zongzi, let alone eat zongzi!Will the common people buy something they have never seen before?

This is also the question in the hearts of Xiong Jie and Ye Junbei. Although they believe Ye Qing unconditionally, what they don't believe is the people of Jincheng!

"It depends on everyone's next efforts!" With a sweet smile, Ye Qing called for some sets of paper, ink, pens and inkstones, and pulled out a few people who knew how to write, and wrote the leaflets together.After working for more than half an hour, I wrote a thick stack of leaflets.

That night, many dark shadows flickered on the streets of Jincheng, and a leaflet was stuffed in front of every house.Because they had done similar activities before, the people who received the leaflets ran back and forth and lined up in front of the customer's door before dawn, and the guys were so surprised that they rushed to greet them.

"Miss Ye!!!!"

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, as soon as Ye Qing stepped out of the house, he was yelled at by the repeat customer.She was so scared that she fell asleep and ran away halfway. She didn't go home until just before the curfew last night, and after traveling so much time in a carriage, she was really tired. She didn't even wash her face when she got home, and she just fell down. Big sleep.If Rui girl hadn't entered the room to make a fuss about herself, she would definitely not have woken up!
"What's the matter? It's so hot early in the morning!"

It's a good thing she came out first, if it scares the two pregnant women or the Rui girl in the house, then there will be troubles!

"You'd better go to the store and have a look, the zongzi you made last night is not enough!"

The clerk's expression was wonderful, as if the good business money went into his pocket, Ye Qing was a little dazed looking at it.But she still picked up her footsteps and followed him to the repeat customers. It turned out that the signboards of repeat customers were so resounding, and the common people bought it so much, which surprised her a little!

From a long distance, I saw a long queue, all people queuing up to buy zongzi, it's unbelievable for Ye Qing to smash his mouth too.Such an eye-catching team also provoked other merchants to go out to inquire, and all of them were envious and jealous!When I opened the door in the morning, I saw a long queue of returning customers. After inquiring, I found out that Ye Qing's girl came back to Jincheng, and she introduced a new dish called Zongzi!Those people all came here admiringly, wanting to taste what zongzi is!
"Don't wait in line to buy some, come back and have a look. Sigh, who the hell is Ye Qing, why are there so many evil ideas!"

"Let's go, little one!"

The figure ran out of a certain restaurant, quickly ran to the end of the line and followed the crowd, but muttered in his mouth: "Huh, the bad business depends on us, the poor shopkeeper, I just Knowing how to shout, why don’t you line up by yourself on such a hot day!”
