Lu Xiangyang is in a very good mood today.

As soon as Xiaohua entered the store, she saw Boss Lu humming a song in front of the workbench, and next to him was Zhou Xi, who rarely appeared in the store, leisurely holding a cup of hot coffee in his hand.

Classmate Huahua has an epiphany. In addition to Mr. Lu's bread, there is also his love in the shop.

Winners at a young age.

"Morning—" Xiaohua's accent hadn't changed yet, she put her arms on her hips and yelled energetically, "I'm going to cheer you up today!"

The appearance of Huahua can always bring some small surprises. Wherever she is, the atmosphere will be involuntarily active.

The cuteness of girls is overwhelming.

"Today's list is all bread." Xiao Hua hung her messenger bag on the wall on tiptoe, "Will there be one or two extra?"

Huahua has a lot of small backpacks, and this hook is the exclusive bag hanging area specially arranged by Lu Xiangyang after she came to work.The only shortcoming is that it is a bit tall, and Lu Xiangyang took it for granted according to his height.

"Yes." Lu Xiangyang hummed a tune of unknown tune, and happily weighed the flour in his hands, "I prepared an extra serving of flour last night, and I invite everyone to eat bread today."

Xiaohua looked at him, and always felt that he said something like this handsome guy was getting married and invited everyone to a wedding banquet.

"Bring Brother Sen." Zhou Xi raised the paper coffee cup in his hand, which was printed with bright maple leaves, "He refuses to charge for the morning coffee."

Zhou Xi held the cup, to be precise, the posture of holding the cup is very beautiful.With two or three fingers, he held the upper part of the cup like a claw machine. His knuckles were slender and strong, giving him a sense of casual indulgence.

I don't know if it's because the cup is too hot or what.

"Okay." Lu Xiangyang looked at it a little absorbedly, "It's strange, did Brother Sen open the shop so early recently? I remember he didn't open until eleven o'clock."

"I saw him when I parked the car." Zhou Xi took a sip, "Maybe he's preparing for work in advance. Listen to him, he's going on a long trip next week."

"Run away again? It's not long since you came back." Lu Xiangyang had a hard time imagining the life of wandering out several times a year. While looking away, he beat an egg into the noodle bowl, making a crisp sound of crackling, " I think the position he posted on the forum is like Ludo, too strong."

The impression Wu Sen left on Lu Xiangyang was that he was a traveler who never returned.

It seems that he was born to stand in the rocky rainforest with his shoulders covered with gravel and wind. Only those magnificent and towering scenery can match his unruly appearance.

"Well, he said he was going to America." Zhou Xi gently shook the coffee in his hand, and the bright aroma overflowed from the mouth of the cup.

This washed Yirgacheffe tastes like a one-in-a-million flavor.

Wu Sen told him that there were not many flavors in stock, and he would pay attention to find some beans and come back.

In fact, before reaching the barista, the taste of coffee beans is mostly determined by roasting.

Now there are many wholesale suppliers of finished coffee beans, including all kinds of leading names, and the channels are convenient. Most coffee shops will not go to the production area to pick beans and return to their own production.

Wu Sen is an exception.

"America?" Lu Xiangyang was a little surprised, "Isn't that the place where you studied abroad?"

Zhou Xi took another sip and nodded.

"Just now I inquired about where I used to live, and it's still some distance away." Zhou Xi said, "But it seems that the surrounding area where he went doesn't produce coffee beans."

Lu Xiangyang followed suit and shrugged.

"Who knows, maybe it's just to play. Brother Sen goes everywhere." Lu Xiangyang said, "I'll take it to him after it's baked."

It takes a long time to make bread.In addition to the process of shaping and making, most of the time is spent on the fermentation process. In the precise temperature control and humidity, the waiting time for the slow growth of the yeast, waiting for the fluffy and plump and then baked in the oven, can make the best color. .

Most bakers are extremely careful, and Lu Xiangyang is no exception.

"This oven makes European buns. After coming out of the fermentation box, you need to cut the flowers on the surface first, and then put them in to bake." Lu Xiangyang carefully took out a piece of auspicious blade, and said to Xiaohua, "Go and weigh the next one." I wrote down the grams of dough in the furnace, and I will cut this furnace first.”

"Aww!" Xiaohua happily weighed the flour in the assembly line and said, "It turns out that the patterns on the surface of the bread were cut out before baking..."

"Otherwise?" Lu Xiangyang raised his eyebrows, "Could it be a mold? You thought it was moon cakes."

"No, no." Xiaohua shook her head innocently, "I thought it would be carved one by one after baking...that would be awesome..."

Lu Xiangyang: "..."

Huo Xiaohua, synonymous with innocence.

"Bread expands when it's heated, right." Lu Xiangyang patiently explained, "The pattern is cut before it goes into the oven, and when it's baked, it will gradually crack along the pattern on the surface, forming orderly cracks. In the end it’s the pattern you see on the finished product.”

The cutting blade of the bread is extremely sharp, and a lot of practice is required for the required strength, angle and sliding direction. Lu Xiangyang easily dared not let Xiao Hua try it, and only gave it to the onlookers.

He sprinkled the dough evenly with flour, picked up the blade, and quickly scored a few lines on the bread.

The soft tissue on the surface of the bread broke open like a cloud and flowing water under the blade, unimpeded. Lu Xiangyang's hand is very dexterous and firm, and it does not tremble at all when it is suspended in the air. The lines are clear and neat, and it is extremely comfortable to watch.

"Wow! I can see it!" Xiao Hua shouted excitedly, "This is the straw pattern we often see!"

Zhou Xi joined the ranks of onlookers with great interest.

"Yes." Lu Xiangyang stroked his sleeves in satisfaction, "When the bread expands, the floured surface will form a sharp contrast with the dark color in the crack, and the pattern will appear."

Xiao Hua clapped her hands, turned around and left: "I'm going to ask Miss Qingqing to come and watch, she likes to watch this kind of thing the most."

"It's pretty." Zhou Xi said, "It's much better than Gu An. He used a scalpel to peel an apple for me."

"..." Lu Xiangyang couldn't help shivering, "How dare you eat it."

Zhou Xi laughed: "I won't know until after eating."

"Sister Qingqing! Come and see!" Xiaohua pushed the door open and shouted to the next door, "It's so exciting! Mr. Lu is circumcised!"

Connecting the past and the future, it is also connected with the scalpel.

Zhou Xi: "..."

Lu Xiangyang: "..."

Disaster-level pupil earthquake.

Boss Lu shook his hand holding the sharp blade, and cut the fresh and small straw pattern into overlord and big flowers.

damned.

Zhou Xi couldn't hold back and squatted down on the spot.

"Bread skin! Bread skin! Don't miss the words that shouldn't be missing!" Lu Xiangyang shouted at the door furiously, "Master is cutting the pattern of the European bag!!"

Standing at the door, Qingqing went from being shocked to completely understanding, and let out a goose cry very loudly.Followed by classmate Xiaohua, who suddenly came to his senses, the two performed a thousand enthusiastic and unrestrained ducks with all their strength at the gate of Sunflower.

If you could see bullet screens in real life, it must be "hahahahaha" floating across the screen now.

"Fuck." Lu Xiangyang threw the blade away, "Shut up."

Zhou Xi laughed until tears came out.It was only when all the bread was sent in and baked that he recovered a bit. He took off his glasses and wiped the corners of his eyes.

"It's almost done!" Lu Xiangyang stood at the door and dragged the two laughing people in together, "After a while, the ugliest bread is yours to eat."

"Okay, okay." Qingqing's stomach hurts badly, she was tired from laughing, and walked into the shop while talking.

Just as he passed by Qingqing, Lu Xiangyang caught sight of the suspicious middle-aged woman behind the street lamp in the next second, looking intently at Zhou Xi who took off his glasses through the window glass of his shop. body.

"Why is it her again!" Lu Xiangyang's irritability emerged again, and this time it was even higher without accident.

Qingqing also saw it, and she recognized at a glance that it was a female customer who had been wandering on this street repeatedly recently: "Hey, who are you looking for, big sister?"

She lowered her voice and said to Lu Xiangyang: "You really can't be a stalker mother fan?"

The woman was wearing a mask, and when she regained her senses and looked up, Lu Xiangyang had already walked up to her.

"Hello." Lu Xiangyang suppressed the surging unhappiness, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The woman glanced at him, probably feeling that she couldn't escape, she sized up Lu Xiangyang and said, "I'm looking for Zhou Xi."

"...Who are you?" Lu Xiangyang's anger flared up again, "What can I do with him?"

The woman took off the mask and carefully folded it in her hand. She glanced at Zhou Xi in the store, turned back to look at Lu Xiangyang calmly and said, "I'm his mother. The one that gave birth to him."

Birth mother?

My brain went blank.

Lu Xiangyang looked at Zhou Xi who was sitting safely by the window, and then at the woman who took off her mask in front of him.

In desperation he discerned some vague resemblance in the features of the two.

Zhou Xi just put on his glasses and looked back at him. Through the clean and clear glass, from Lu Xiangyang's eyes, he read an unknown fear and worry without omission.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Xi frowned, and followed him out of the shop.

The air was so stiff that even breathing was debilitating.

"Zhou, Zhou Xi." Lu Xiangyang tried his best to maintain a steady sentence, the logic in his brain was in chaos, "This person..."

What should I say?Through his mouth, to tell Zhou Xi that this is the mother he has never met?

"Zhou Xi." The woman said suddenly, "My name is Xu Qin, and I'm your mother."

What I ate today is Yunnan red three chops!

It doesn't look very eye-catching, but fried chicken goes with rice!

I replaced the pork with minced chicken breast (?｀?Д?′)

Minced chicken breast + a drop of oil + garlic + minced ginger + salt + starch + soy sauce (marinate for 15Min)

Cut the tomatoes, green peppers and red peppers into fine cubes~ put the meat into the pan and scoop it out (1)!Then sauté the double peppers (2), add the tomatoes and stir-fry until the juice is thick (3), add the minced meat and turn it together, simmer until the juice is collected (4), and it’s OK.

Seasoning: salt + chicken essence~
