Chapter 1876: Mutton soup dumplings

Translator: 549690339 

“Little ya has good taste in picking things.” Yuan Zhou led Yin ya to the stone table while holding her hand.

He had planned to eat the mutton soup in the courtyard here, but it hadn’t been served yet. He planned to celebrate the new year with Yin ya after all the customers had gone upstairs.

“Let’s eat here later. I’ve prepared a mutton soup pot to warm up. I’ll also make some mutton dumplings. What do you think?” Yuan Zhou asked in a low voice.

“It’s good. It’s very suitable to eat dumplings and mutton soup during the winter solstice. ” Yin ya nodded her head with a smile on her face. Apparently, she was also in a good mood.

“Let’s go upstairs and take a look at the gift I gave you. ” Yuan Zhou said.

“Alright,” he said. Yin ya nodded her head in agreement.

The present Yuan Zhou prepared for Yin ya this time was made by himself. Last time, he saw that she liked the Sakura dish very much. Therefore, Yuan Zhou carved a wooden hairpin in the shape of a Sakura.

The reason why the gift was still a wooden hairpin was that Yuan Zhou knew that the girl needed all kinds of headdress. Then, Yuan Zhou had to collect 12 kinds of wooden hairpins from the fairy Flower series for Yin ya.

In the future, Yin ya could only use the headdress made by him. That was what Yuan Zhou was thinking.

His line of sight shifted to the wooden hairpin in Yin ya’s hand. There were six cherry blossoms at the head of the hairpin. There were two layers on top and bottom, and three flowers on each layer. They were stacked together and looked very beautiful. The body of the hairpin was uneven and some tree trunk lines were carefully carved on it, which looked like a complete cherry blossom.

There was also a faint fragrance of cherry blossoms. Yin ya liked it very much. She combed her hair on the spot, tied it up and inserted a cherry blossom hairpin, which matched her apricot-yellow dress very well.

“How is it? does it look good?” Yin ya asked.

“It’s very nice. ” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

The time between dinner and the pub was very short. Therefore, Mao Ye arrived very soon. After the customers were settled down and the sober-up set meal was prepared and sent over, Yuan Zhou and Yin ya began to plan to move the pot and other things to the courtyard.

At this moment, Wu Hai’s voice arrived before his people.

“Compass, compass, come and see what I’ve brought you.” Wu Hai’s voice was even as loud as a loudspeaker.

A second ago, it was still a voice. The next second, he appeared in the restaurant with an extremely happy smile on his face. It was unknown whether he was happy because of the new year or because he was about to have another meal.

Behind him, Zhou Xi and Zheng Jiawei carried a sheep that had been killed and skinned and followed him in.

Yuan Zhou and Yin ya looked at Jiang Changxi and Fang Heng who followed them in closely. Wu Yungui was a little dumbfounded. Why were there so many people?

“Hahaha, I’m smart, aren’t I? I asked these people to spend the winter solstice with you, compass.” Wu Hai immediately started to show off his achievement.

“…” Yuan Zhou almost wanted to kill him in his heart. However, he still appeared calm on the surface.

“Little ya is here too. We can’t just spend time with each other anymore. We can only spend it together.” Jiang Changxi squinted her eyes with a smile. As a shrewd person, Queen Jiang immediately understood what was going on.

As Jiang Changxi was busy at the end of the year, she hadn’t come to the restaurant for a long time. It just so happened that it was the winter solstice. Wu Hai greeted her in the group chat again and said that he would send a lamb to Yuan Zhou in the evening and drink a bowl of mutton soup while he was at it.

“Happy Holidays. It’s fun to celebrate the winter solstice together.” Yin ya said with a smile.

Although it was a pity that he couldn’t spend the holiday with blockhead, it was still very good for everyone to spend it together.

“Hahaha. It’s just a coincidence. I’ve just returned to Rong city today, so I made it here. I have to come to eat boss Yuan’s mutton soup.” Wu Yungui was also very happy.

“Boss Yuan, sorry to bother you.” Zheng Jiawei also didn’t expect Yuan Zhou to be on a date.

“It’s fine, let’s have fun together. ” Yuan Zhou answered.

The winter solstice was cold, but with so many people, it was hot and noisy.

“Give me the sheep. I’ll handle it. You can go and sit.” Yuan Zhou directly took the sheep with both hands and brought it into the kitchen. It was quite heavy. If he didn’t exercise regularly, he wouldn’t be able to carry it alone.

He had already prepared enough for two people, and now that there were five more people, he had to prepare more. He also had to change the pot to a bigger one.

Yin ya led Wu Hai and the others to the small courtyard. Everyone found a bench to sit down and started to chat. Of course, only Yin ya, Jiang Changxi, Wu Yungui, Zheng Jiawei and Zhou Xi were chatting. Wu Hai was not there.

Wu Hai stood at the door of the kitchen and didn’t go in. He just squatted there, waiting for his meal.

The speed was extremely fast, and the key was that there was already lamb soup that had been cooked before.

Yuan Zhou came out with a super large pot. Wu Hai began to follow him into the courtyard step by step, almost drooling.

It seemed that only a few hours after the dinner, Wu Hai had just finished a large table of dishes. He didn’t know why he felt as if he hadn’t eaten for a whole day.

At this time, master chef Restaurant was very lively. On the second floor, a group of drinkers were drinking wine and chatting about all sorts of things. In the courtyard, a group of people were drinking soup and eating meat.

Don’t think that it’s difficult for seven people to eat a sheep. With Wu Hai around, what’s so difficult about that?

After eating the meat, he would cook some white radishes and then put the dumplings into the mutton soup to cook. The chubby dumplings would be edible as soon as they floated up. Anyway, this was Wu Hai’s standard of judgment.

He ate one in one bite. The cabbage and pork stuffing, the beef and celery stuffing, and the Lamb soup were delicious.

Of course, only Wu Hai could eat one at a time. Normal people couldn’t do that.

Wu Yungui had a new way of eating dumplings. He first took a small bite, then put the dumplings into the bowl and soaked them. This was mainly to let the mutton soup enter the dumplings.

Then, he ate it with the soup.

“Yes, yes, yes.” Wu Yungui nodded as he ate. This was the real enjoyment of the winter solstice.

“It’s my first time drinking mutton soup at master chef Restaurant,”Fang Heng said.

“We’ll sell mutton soup during the winter solstice in the future. ” Yuan Zhou said. Master chef Restaurant also needed to evolve.

They all ate very well tonight. The key was that Wu Hai brought his own ingredients, so he was definitely full.

After eating the mutton soup, the Little Friends went back to their own mothers and homes respectively. Then, Yuan Zhou sent Yin ya home.

At noon the next day, Wu Hai’s chief of the line was almost robbed again by a young man.

Yesterday, it was sister Wan and Chen Wei. Today, it was a young man. Wu Hai always felt that there were wicked people who wanted to harm him.

The young man’s name was Xu Du. He was dressed very casually and wore a pair of glasses. He looked refined and had a small face. He looked like the kind of boy who was more obedient.

In fact, Xu Du, who had a baby face, was already 27 years old and had already graduated and worked for several years.

Yuan Zhou also knew this man. He had been to the restaurant several times, but only once every two or three months, not too often, not too little either. Of course, he was quite talkative and was quite familiar with Wu Zhou and Zhao Yingjun.

Today, the young man only invited Wu Zhou to have a meal. However, Wu Zhou still didn’t clean up. They had agreed that they would be able to enter the restaurant in the first and second round, but when Wu Zhou arrived, he almost didn’t even have a chance to enter the restaurant in the last round.

“Hehe, it’s a good thing I got it.” Wu Zhou felt that he was lucky.

Then, what could Xu Du say? he could only nod.

[Ps: the winter solstice is also known as the ‘little New Year’ among the people. There’s a saying among the people that offering sacrifices to the ancestors is only one of the meanings of the winter solstice. There’s also the meaning of the new year. It can be said to be ‘Happy Winter Solstice’.]
