Perhaps it was a psychological effect, or perhaps it had such a magical effect by itself, but every time Tao Ran’s mother ate the milk peach glue made by Yuan Zhou, she would feel exceptionally spirited and full of courage, as if she couldn’t overcome any difficulty.
Tao Ran’s mother felt relieved when she saw her mother like this. It wasn’t just the family who was sick for a long time. The patient would also have negative emotions. Tao Ran was very sensitive to emotions, so she naturally knew her mother’s condition. Sometimes, people were like this. They would be helpless when it came to certain things.
Ever since she brought back the milk peach gum for the first time, Tao Ran had noticed the change in her mother. That was why she had been so thick-skinned as to buy a portion of milk peach gum every time master chef Restaurant had an event.
Even though he knew that Yuan Zhou might also have the intention of taking care of him on purpose, Tao Ran was still reluctant to decline this kind gesture. His mother really liked this sweet taste.
Usually, whenever Taoxi road needed help with any activities, Tao Ran would volunteer for free. After all, it was Yuan Zhou who built Taoxi road. To a certain extent, helping Taoxi road was the same as helping Yuan Zhou. Although it was an insignificant matter, Tao Ran knew that this was the only thing she could offer.
Yuan Zhou didn’t know what was going on in Tao Ran’s restaurant. Three days later, Tao Ran placed a beautiful and delicate embroidered picture in front of him.
There wasn’t anything unusual on the paper. It was the scenery that Yuan Zhou often saw, such as the gate of master chef Restaurant, some special buildings on Taoxi road, and people coming and going. Of course, the most conspicuous and lifelike ones were definitely the two people in traditional Chinese clothing standing at the door of the restaurant.
At first glance, they could tell that it was Yin ya and Yuan Zhou, not only because of their shape, but also because their facial features seemed to have been carved out. People couldn’t help sighing with emotion at the deep foundation of the embroiderers. Naturally, they could also see their artistic value.
Although Tao Ran’s mother had never been to master chef Restaurant, in order to finish this painting, she not only asked Tao Ran to paint some things on Taoxi road in detail, especially the scenery of master chef Restaurant, but also described it. She had also tried her best to come and see it twice in person while she was still in good health. She had especially looked at Yin ya and Yuan Zhou carefully.
It would be impossible for Yuan Zhou not to notice that someone was observing him. However, everyone on the Taoxi road was here to see Yuan Zhou. Sometimes, even Yin ya would get a lot of attention. Both of them had gotten used to it.
It was because of the preparation work that the embroidery was even more shocking. It was as if Taoxi road had been condensed into a small square of Embroidery Cloth, which was really amazing and unbelievable.
“I finally understand why so many people were so shocked when they saw the Along the River During the Qingming Festival. It’s not without reason that paintings can be passed down.” Yuan Zhou sighed with emotion in the heart.
It wasn’t that there weren’t any paintings of the People’s lives, but there really wasn’t one that could describe the entire Riverside in such a detailed manner. It was just like how Yuan Zhou was still very surprised when he saw the scenery of Taoxi road on the embroidered cloth even though he was familiar with it.
......
Naturally, Yuan Zhou wouldn’t accept such an artistically valuable thing, as it was too expensive. However, Tao Ran had obviously come prepared.
She knew some of Yuan Zhou’s rules, but this was indeed her mother’s kind intention and was the most presentable thing.
She concluded her long speech with a single sentence,”my mother’s embroidery skills are just like boss Yuan’s culinary skills. Although they are superb and hard to come by, they are the best things that she can show off. When head chef Yuan gives others food that he cooks as a gift, will they still feel embarrassed to accept it because of his superb culinary skills and think that it is too expensive?”
What she said was very reasonable. Yuan Zhou couldn’t find any words to refute her. Therefore, he accepted the painting that was said to be able to be made into a screen directly.
Tao Ran was really embarrassed when she told them about it because they didn’t have the ability to find good wood to make screens. Naturally, they couldn’t afford to buy one, so they didn’t make unnecessary ones.
He handed the original embroidered picture to Yuan Zhou and told him several ways to use it. It was very convenient whether it was to make a screen, directly Mount it up, hang it up, or use it for other purposes.
After Tao Ran left, Yuan Zhou also had an idea,”I can carve a frame like a screen and hang the embroidered picture on it. Xiao Ya will probably like it.”
He did as he said. In the following days, besides opening the restaurant and practicing his cooking skills as usual, Yuan Zhou also took some time to carve the screen. As for the wood he used, it was definitely the most common one. As for whether the screen was made of fragrant Rosewood or not, Yuan Zhou indicated that if the screen wasn’t made of fragrant Rosewood, would it be made of something else?
Of course, it was only because Zhang Ye had been busy contacting other cuisines with Cheng zhaomei and promoting a series of side dishes that he did not have much time to come to the restaurant.
Even though they came here in a hurry to have a meal, they really didn’t notice Yuan Zhou’s wasteful behavior. Otherwise, it was hard to say if they would be beaten again.
The days passed by one after another. Apart from the holidays, Taoxi road was usually very lively, but it was also very orderly. Even if there were various departments cooperating with each other during the holidays, there was no problem. The customers had long been used to lining up and following the rules to eat at master chef Restaurant. Therefore, there were almost no major incidents.
The small matter was already solved by the queuing Committee, not to mention Yuan Zhou. Therefore, Yuan Zhou had been very focused on opening the restaurant and studying his cooking skills.
Last time, Ji Yi and the others had witnessed the charm of the pastry platter. For several days in a row, they had come to eat all kinds of pastries. Almost every day, the pastries were different. There was no repetition at all, but the taste was exactly the same. After that, Yuan Zhou’s name became well-known again in the circle of desserts.
As his reputation grew, more and more people came to find Yuan Zhou. In the past, many chefs and famous senior chefs came to exchange their culinary skills with Yuan Zhou. Now, with the addition of various seniors from the circle of desserts, the scene became a little chaotic. After all, there was only one Yuan Zhou and it was impossible for him to be divided into eight groups. Therefore, the two groups almost fought each other when they met on a narrow road.
As they were all people of status, they definitely couldn’t really fight. However, there were still many war of words. Almost all of them were said by the public and said that the public was right and the women were right. If they couldn’t find Yuan Zhou to judge, they could only find other ways.
Therefore, the two parties really had a good fight. Of course, no one knew who won or lost because it was kept a secret. On the surface, it seemed quite harmonious. Moreover, both parties came to find Yuan Zhou regularly.
It was as if he was trying to say,”you do one, three, five, I do two, four, six, you do well, I do well, everyone does well.”
Yuan Zhou had heard about this but wasn’t clear about the details. It wasn’t appropriate for him to ask about it. After observing for a while and finding nothing serious, he didn’t care about anything else.
The days passed by like flowing water. Today, it was time for the restaurant to line up for lunch. As soon as it was time, the customers immediately resurrected on the spot as if they had been injected with chicken blood. They began to line up according to their speed, and in no time, a long line was formed.
