"Okay, I'll join you." Zhou said with a smile and put the bean paste filling into a bowl.

Gu Xiaoyou tested the temperature of the bean paste filling with her fingers: "Let the bean paste filling air dry first, and then use it when it cools down."

"Well, okay." Mrs. Zhou put the bowl of bean paste filling aside and washed her hands.

Wiping the water off her hands, Zhou asked: "Then what are we doing now?"

"Let's press the dough first." Gu Xiaoyou brought the remaining dough in each basin to the panel.

Putting some reserved dough in the corner, she kneaded the dough into a long strip and warned: "Pressing the dough is just like rolling out dumpling wrappers, it just needs to be thicker, and remember to make it smooth, otherwise the bean paste buns will not be the same."

nice."

"Okay, I get it." Mrs. Zhou responded. She was convinced that food should look good or not.

The two people worked very quickly, and in a short time all the dough was turned into dough.

At this time, the bean paste filling has cooled down a bit and can be touched directly with your hands.

"Let's roll the bean paste filling into small balls, just roll them according to the size of the dough, and put one on top of the dough." Gu Xiaoyou warned.

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou nodded and made the bean paste filling with Gu Xiaoyou.

The bean paste filling was a little sticky, so it took two people a while to knead the bean paste filling.

"It would be great if there was a refrigerator, so I could make a whole lot of bean paste stuffing." Gu Xiaoyou sighed, missing modern facilities again.

"There is no refrigerator... but there is an icebox in the house." Mrs. Zhou replied.

"Bingku!" Gu Xiaoyou's eyes lit up and he said with a hint of complaint: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Having a freezer is equivalent to having a freezer. Many things can be prepared in advance without having to cook them freshly.

"We don't need ice in autumn..." Mrs. Zhou said softly.

"Okay, I don't blame you." Gu Xiaoyou smiled: "We can put more things in the freezer in the future."

"Well, let's continue making bean paste buns."

"Okay, pick up the bean paste filling, tighten the tiger's mouth, and knead it into a round shape." Gu Xiaoyou said while demonstrating.

Making red bean paste buns is very simple. It is much easier than dumplings and steamed buns. Zhou got started quickly and quickly made bean paste buns with Gu Xiaoyou.

The colorful round dough looks very appetizing.

"Then it's my turn to show off my skills." Gu Xiaoyou rubbed his hands and started with the round bean paste buns.

She kneaded the reserved dough into triangles and circles, then dipped it in water and placed it on top of the dough.

Zhou watched for a long time but didn't understand what Gu Xiaoyou was doing. Seeing that the steamed buns had fermented, she took the steamed buns away and put them in the steamer to steam.

While Zhou was steaming steamed buns, Gu Xiaoyou made various animal bean paste buns.

There are two triangles for the ears, a circle for the nose, two black dots for the eyes, and then two holes are poked in the circles. There are two triangles standing up, and the eyes and beard are made of black, and some

A kitten with a mouth made of cinnabar.

Gu Xiaoyou got into the creative mood and made piglets, puppies, kittens and little ducks. When there was only one white bean paste bun left, Gu Xiaoyou had an idea, raised a naughty smile at the corner of his mouth, and painted it with black

After tossing the dough for a while, I finally made the shape of the last red bean paste bun.

Gu Xiaoyou took the last red bean paste bun and looked at it, covered her mouth and snickered.

"Xiaoyou's steamed buns are steamed, have you fermented the bean paste buns?" Zhou's voice was intended to make Xiaoyou snicker.

Gu Xiaoyou came back to his senses and said quickly: "It's done, we're just missing the last one. Let's add some more side dishes."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou put the steamed buns on a plate and fried a few simple side dishes with Gu Xiaoyou.

When the vegetables are fried and the red bean paste buns have fermented, steam them over high heat for five minutes, then turn off the heat and leave them in the steamer for five minutes before taking them out.

Gu Xiaoyou opened the lid of the steamer and looked expectantly at the bean paste buns in the steamer.

He saw various soft and fluffy little animals lying in the cage. Gu Xiaoyou looked specifically at the last bean paste bun, which was steamed, round and cute.

"That's great. It was successful the first time." Gu Xiaoyou said with a smile.

"It's very good. It looks quite cute after looking at it for a long time. It looks appetizing." Ms. Zhou said, isn't this animal bean paste bun the little animal drawn by Gu Xiaoyou?

Mr. Zhou sells paper towel bags with simple drawings in his paper shop every day, and now he feels more familiar when seeing these patterns.

She didn't know if she was used to it, but she liked the original weird patterns more and more.

Gu Xiaoyou smiled: "Hey, it's getting late, hurry up and bring out all the food."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou immediately packed the trays of steamed buns and red bean paste. She noticed that Gu Xiaoyou took out the food box and put food in it, and asked curiously: "Is it too late to give food to your friend today?"

Already?"

"It seems a little late. Let's send it over first and then talk about it." Having said that, Gu Xiaoyou's men moved a little faster.

After loading the food box as quickly as possible, Gu Xiaoyou took the food box and said to Zhou, "I'll send it away first and I'll be back later."

"I got it, go ahead, slow down..." Click to go.

Before Zhou could say the last two words, Gu Xiaoyou's figure had quickly disappeared from her sight.

Shaking her head, Mrs. Zhou put all the plates on the tray and walked towards the restaurant.

At this time, Gu Xiaoyou had already trotted to the door of the courtyard. Manager Zhang had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he wanted to go in and ask, he finally saw Gu Xiaoyou.

Manager Zhang trotted over to greet him, and took the food box from Gu Xiaoyou's hand with a wink.

Just as he was about to say hello to Gu Xiaoyou, she heard her urging: "It's a bit late today, please send it to me quickly."

"Yes, I'll go right away." Manager Zhang received the order, hurriedly received the gift, picked up the food box and turned around to leave.

Manager Zhang was afraid of scattering the food in the food box, so he didn't dare to run, so he could only rush to the stable as fast as he could.

Handing the food box to the boy, Manager Zhang got on his horse, took the food box, held it tightly in his arms, raised his whip with one hand, and set off quickly.

After taking a few small roads, we arrived at Mu Wuchen's mansion.

"Help me catch the food box and hold it steady." When the horse stopped, Manager Zhang immediately handed the food box to the servant who came to greet him.

After the servants had secured the food box, Manager Zhang got off the horse.

After hurriedly straightening his clothes, Manager Zhang took the food box and hurried towards the restaurant.

From afar, he saw a handsome figure walking in front of the restaurant. He recognized it as the master at a glance. Manager Zhang quickly quickened his pace and rushed to Mu Wuchen in three steps and two steps at a time.

"Master, I'm late, please forgive me." Manager Zhang held the food box high and knelt in front of Mu Wuchen in fear.
