Chapter 1112: Sweet and cool

Mu Qingqing had a clear direction and quickly walked towards the young traffic policeman. “Ta ta.” Mu Qingqing stopped one meter in front of the traffic police and did not move forward. Because at this time, the young traffic police officer was directing a car to stop and then doing a routine inspection. It was naturally impossible for mu Qingqing to go up and disturb him during working hours. Carrying her bag, mu Qingqing stood in place and waited. About ten minutes later, the young traffic policeman finished his duty and walked to the side of the road to rest. At this time, mu Qingqing walked towards the traffic police again. When she walked over, the young traffic police officer was drinking water. When he saw mu Qingqing walking over, a trace of doubt appeared on his sweaty face. In fact, he had seen mu Qingqing just now when she was standing there. Although he was puzzled, he did not have the intention to ask. After all, she might not be looking for him. But now it seemed that she was indeed looking for him. The young traffic policeman looked at mu Qingqing with a puzzled look. “Hello, I’m mu Qingqing, the granddaughter of the old man who picked up scraps.” Mu Qingqing stood an arm’s length away from the young traffic police officer and introduced herself. However, mu Qingqing’s words made the traffic police frown even more. The young traffic policeman sized mu Qingqing up, his eyes showing more disapproval and dissatisfaction, but he did not say anything. “Well, I’m the old man’s grandniece. I used to work abroad all year round and only returned to China recently.” Mu Qingqing explained in a gentle voice when she saw that the traffic police officer was not angry. “What’s the matter?” The dissatisfaction on the young traffic police officer’s face faded a little and he asked. “My grandfather’s health isn’t good, so he went to Shanghai to recuperate. But because I was in a hurry to send him off, he didn’t have time to say goodbye and thank you, so I wanted to solemnly say thank you to you.” Mu Qingqing said directly without any nonsense. “You’re welcome …” The young traffic policeman was interrupted by mu Qingqing’s action before he could finish his sentence. Because after mu Qingqing finished speaking, she directly bowed deeply to the young traffic policeman. Her back was 90 degrees and her head was lowered. She looked very serious. “Thank you for your help.” “Thank you!” Mu Qingqing thanked him seriously. “There’s no need for you to get up. Anyone can take this bottle. ” The young traffic policeman said. “Well, thank you for giving my grandfather such an opportunity.” Mu Qingqing stood up and smiled at the young, dark-faced traffic policeman. “Ahem, I’m on duty, sorry.” The young traffic police officer scratched his face in embarrassment and looked at the road. “Then I won’t bother you anymore. If you need anything, you can call me. I’ve been working in Chengdu recently.” Mu Qingqing said as she placed her business card where the young traffic policeman had taken the water. This time, the young traffic police officer didn’t say anything. He just nodded and went back to his post to perform his duty seriously. Mu Qingqing looked at the young traffic policeman’s back and smiled. She didn’t say anything and turned to leave. In fact, the young traffic police officer didn’t help much. He only collected the plastic bottles for himself and his colleagues, and didn’t help with anything else. For one thing, as he said, these things would have been picked up anyway, but he was willing to give them to the old man. For another, he didn’t want to collect other things so that he wouldn’t affect the other sanitation workers who made extra money. It could be said that they each took what they needed and got what they wanted. Yes, the cleaners who usually cleaned the streets would also pick up some waste that could be exchanged for money to supplement their meager salary. You can’t harm the interests of the other by helping one. On the other hand, mu Qingqing was very happy after she had finished what she had set out to do. Even her steps on the way back were much lighter. …… Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of May. At this time, Rong city was also getting hot. The bright sun hung high in the light blue sky. Having gotten up early for jogging, Yuan Zhou looked at the blue sky and muttered,””You can prepare some refreshing snacks now.” For breakfast, Yuan Zhou chose the burning noodles from Yibin restaurant. It was spicy but fragrant and spicy, which made people have a lot of appetites. With the idea of making cooling snacks to stimulate the appetite, Yuan Zhou started to get busy as soon as the breakfast time ended. “Hua la,” Yuan Zhou opened the cabinet and started to take out the raw materials. The system displayed,”this is fake sour sauce, also known as crystal cold powder, an annual herbaceous plant of solarium.” The main root is conical and has fine tendrils …” “Stop. I know this dish very well. After all, I’m also from Sichuan. I’ve been eating it since I was young. There’s no need to introduce it.” Yuan Zhou grinned and said with a tone of gnashing his teeth. After laughing, Yuan Zhou didn’t want to be subverted by a tiny ice starch seed at all. Who knew that the system would tell him how he had cultivated this plant so carefully? “Maybe you had a much better childhood than I did.” Yuan Zhou muttered to himself while looking at the dark brown iced vermicelli seeds in his hand. Fortunately, the system had always been a sensible little comrade. It didn’t say anything else after Yuan Zhou stopped it. That’s right. The dessert that Yuan Zhou prepared to provide at noon today was the hand-kneaded ice powder. This was the most suitable for relieving summer heat. After a bowl of cool ice powder, it would cool down no matter how hot it was. Especially with the sweet red sugar water, the taste was like drinking a bowl of soft ice cream on a hot summer when cicadas were chirping. It made people reminisce and look forward to the memories of summer. “When it’s done, try a bowl first to see if your cooking skills have deteriorated.” The corner of Yuan Zhou’s mouth lifted into a smile, but his hands didn’t slow down and started to rub it carefully. The small dark brown sesame-sized ice powder seeds were wrapped in a sackcloth bag. Yuan Zhou skillfully rubbed them in the wooden basin that was filled with water. “Hua la, Hua la”. As Yuan Zhou rubbed the water, waves were raised in the water. There were also traces of transparent liquid that slowly fused into the water. With his head lowered, Yuan Zhou stood in front of the Azure stone countertop and rubbed the seeds of the ice powder in his hands earnestly with both hands. As he had done a lot of work, Yuan Zhou would replace the seeds with new ones from time to time so that the ice powder in the wooden basin could solidify smoothly. It was a repetitive and boring thing to rub the ice powder seeds by hand. However, the expression on Yuan Zhou’s face was serious and careful. After the basin of ice powder was rubbed and placed into a slightly larger wooden bucket at the side to wait for it to solidify, Yuan Zhou began to boil the red sugar continuously. Yuan Zhou didn’t use lime, toothpaste, or alkali to help the ice powder solidify. Instead, he let it solidify naturally. In this way, the ice powder would not have any other mixed taste, and the original taste of the ice powder could be better tasted. Without the use of the solidifying agent, the time needed for the frozen starch seeds to solidify would be longer. It would take about two to three hours. This was the reason why Yuan Zhou started to make it as soon as the breakfast time ended. In this way, it would be just right when the lunch time arrived. “Pa da,” Yuan Zhou threw a piece of red sugar into the claypot and started to boil it. “Hua la, Hua la”. When the red sugar started to melt, Yuan Zhou, who was wearing a face mask, started to stir the sugar cane in the pot. The strength of stirring each time was even and slow. Meanwhile, master Cheng was watching him carefully at the side. That’s right. Master Cheng was taking notes and studying seriously at the side. ……
