HCB Chapter 34 Making Milk Tea
Chapter 34 Making Milk Tea
With the furniture moved in, Yufei's family finally had a place to call home in Longyuan Town.
Yufei entered the preschool class of the primary school section of Longyuan Town Middle School, while Yufei's father gradually established himself in the junior high school section.
"Milk tea?" Xia Chan watched Yufei bustling around in the kitchen, fiddling with the ingredients.
When asked what she was doing, Yufei told Aunt Xia she was making milk tea.
A while ago, when Granny Chun was at the market in Longyang Town, she was incredibly lucky to encounter someone selling cattle.
There are six cows in total, both male and female. After this period of time, the female cows became pregnant, but because they are all beef cattle, they don't produce a lot of milk.
But that's okay, she doesn't plan to sell them yet; enough for her family is fine.
The tea leaves were made from the fresh leaves of tea trees that Granny Chun bought at the market, after being selected once.
She caramelized roasted tea leaves and white sugar from the space sugar workshop, added water from her space, simmered it until it turned a tea color, then added milk.
Stir the pot well, scoop out the tea leaves, and Yufei tasted it with a spoon. Mmm~ milk tea flavor, just the right amount of sweetness, and the aroma of tea is wonderful!
But without a straw, it's not satisfying to drink! Yufei racked her brains; how could such a small thing stump her?
She hopped along on her short legs to the storage room, found the harvested reeds, and turned their slender stalks into straws.
Yufei looked at her masterpiece and nodded in satisfaction, then took it to the kitchen.
Teachers Chun'e, Xia Chan, and Qiu Ju were already drinking their milk tea from the bamboo tubes they were holding.
After each sip, the three teachers would glance at the milk tea inside the bamboo tube, their eyes filled with affection for it.
Well, yet another drink has become a favorite of the three teachers.
Aunt Chun, Aunt Xia, and Aunt Qiu came to use this. Yufei put a reed stalk in each bamboo tube. Hmm~ that's more like it.
The three teachers stared blankly at the reeds that Yufei had stuck into the bamboo tubes, wondering what she was up to.
Yufei also filled a bamboo tube with milk tea, then sipped it through a reed stalk, feeling a sense of satisfaction welling up inside her.
The three teachers watched as Yufei sipped her milk tea from a reed, and they followed suit, sipping theirs from the same reed.
Granny Chun said, "Hmm~ This makes her much more elegant, and she likes it very much."
She was the first to get used to it. The other two mentors couldn't understand it at first, but for some reason, they seemed to enjoy drinking milk tea through the straw more and more, and they gradually got used to it too.
Yufei told the three of them that she wanted to take the rest of the milk tea in the pot with her.
Granny Chun and Aunt Qiuju looked at Aunt Xiachan. Aunt Xiachan waved to Yufei, indicating that she understood and told her to go ahead.
Granny Chun and Aunt Qiuju were relieved and let her take it away.
Making milk tea is actually very simple; they could tell from Xia Chan's performance that she knew how.
Since Xia Chan already knows how to do it, what's the point of having Xiao Yufei? Does she even look edible?
Watching her mentors turn their backs on her after she had served them, Yufei helplessly packed the milk tea into the glass bottles she had collected and returned to the real world.
Then I tiptoed into the living room and saw that the clock showed 6 o'clock, half an hour before my mother got up.
Because my mom works in a rural area not far from Longyuan Town, it still takes almost an hour to cycle there.
So Yufei's mom gets up very early every day to prepare their breakfast before going to work.
Yufei went to the kitchen, picked up a stool, and went to the stove.
She moved the kettle to the side, then put the hanging pot on the stove, saying that her mother hadn't gotten up yet and she'd prepare breakfast for them!
She took six eggs from her spatial storage, a handful of scallions, and some noodles from home.
She spent about 20 minutes preparing three bowls of fried egg noodles.
Then he placed the milk tea he had prepared in the space next to him.
I ran to my parents' bedroom and told them to get up and eat.
Liu Meili was already awake at this time. Hearing her daughter calling her for dinner, she immediately got out of bed and came to the dining table in surprise, where a steaming bowl of egg noodles was placed.
If she weren't certain her husband was still sleeping like a log, she wouldn't have dared to imagine that this delicious-looking, yet untasted, noodle dish was made by her daughter.
Yufei urged Liu Meili to wash up and eat noodles quickly, then ran back to their room to wake her father up.
Finally, after a few powerful squats, Li Aiguo was jolted awake from his sleep. Still groggy, he rinsed his mouth, washed his face, and went to the dining table.
He sat down, took a bite of the egg noodles Yufei had cooked, and mumbled to Liu Meili, "..."
"Honey~ the noodles you cooked today are so delicious!" After eating the egg noodles, Li Aiguo was instantly pulled back from his dream and praised his wife for how delicious the noodles were.
After finishing the noodles cooked by Yufei, Liu Meili, still in a state of shock and disbelief, was stunned when her husband praised her, and simply stared blankly at him.
"It wasn't me~ It was my daughter who made it."
Li Aiguo glanced at Yufei in surprise, then immediately said proudly
"She truly is my daughter!"
After saying that, she gave a thumbs up. Liu Meili rolled her eyes at Li Aiguo, as if to say, "So what if he's not my daughter?"
Liu Meili has now accepted the fact that her daughter cooked the noodles, and proudly hugs and kisses her.
Yufei gestured to the milk tea beside him and told him how to drink it using the two reed stalks.
They were absolutely blown away when they first tasted milk tea.
Yufei's dad started eating noodles and drinking milk tea, while Yufei's mom stopped after taking a couple of sips.
Yufei was initially disappointed that her mother didn't like the milk tea, but her mother first checked the time and realized she would be late if they didn't leave soon. So, she carefully hugged her milk tea, screwed the cap on, and even took the reed stalk with her as she left, saying as she went.
"My darling daughter, I'm off to work! I'm going to wow everyone with the milk tea you gave me, haha!"
After saying that, he dashed downstairs like a rabbit, put the milk tea in the bicycle basket, and rode away.
After finishing his noodles, Yufei's father looked at Yufei expectantly and said in a slightly coquettish tone...
"My darling daughter~ Your dear daddy isn't full yet, could you cook me some more egg noodles?"
After saying that, he winked at Yufei, which gave Yufei goosebumps all over her body.
Is this still her mature and responsible father? Has some strange thing possessed him?!
Yufei glanced at her father suspiciously, but obediently went into the kitchen to make him a bowl of egg noodles, and made herself a bowl as well.
After finishing their meal, Yufei's dad conscientiously cleaned up the kitchen and dining table. Yufei went back to her room and took out her big schoolbag.
She took out several bottles of pre-packaged milk tea from the storage space, until her backpack was completely full.
Heave-ho, heave-ho, Yufei, carrying a large backpack, slowly walked out like a giant tortoise.
"Pfft, Yufei, are you kidding me?" Yufei's dad laughed so hard he almost fell over, watching Yufei slowly walking away with her schoolbag on her back.
Then he strode over and slung Yufei's backpack over his shoulder. Wow, it was quite heavy. What was inside?
Yufei's dad curiously opened it and saw that the backpack was full of milk tea.
Yufei's father said jealously, "Who is this for!" If he heard it was for that young man, he would definitely call him into his office and give him a good talking to.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even know how the flowers turned red.
Yufei counted on her little fingers with a very serious expression.
"One bottle for the eldest cousin, one bottle for the younger cousin, one bottle for the Chinese teacher, one bottle for the math teacher, one bottle for Xiaoyufei, and the rest of the students in the class can share it."
