Chapter 23 Taoyuan Evolution

Jia Yi looked at Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu. Why were these two people not in the right mood?

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Although Mrs. Jia Zhang was smiling, she looked fake, and after staying for a while, she excused herself and went home because she felt unwell.

Jia Yi paid special attention to Jia Zhang, and as expected, he turned around with a dark look on his face.

Qin Huairu looked good and radiant, but her eyes looked at Jia Zhang from time to time...

After a while, He Yuzhu also yawned and left...

Isn't He Yuzhu usually the one who likes to join in the fun? This kind of occasion should not be missed. Could it be that he drank too much last night?

The first uncle is not as serious as Uncle He. Could it be that the first uncle is older and sleeps less?

This must be what happened, otherwise why would it be like this after a year?

Today is really weird, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I can still have two days of leisure. The day after tomorrow, the third day of the first lunar month, which is January 23, 1966 in the Gregorian calendar, Jia Yi will go to the steel rolling mill to be a chef apprentice.

In the afternoon, I entered Taoyuan from my old place. The size of the space has not changed. I looked around carefully. I originally thought that Taoyuan had evolved yesterday.

I'm a little disappointed. Let's go and count the inventory. Hey, no, why has this cave changed?

Walking to the entrance of the cave, it still looks so big from the outside, but looking inside, there are no boundaries. This is a warehouse with infinite space. It's great, Taoyuan has evolved.

After sorting it out carefully, why is there still a small space...

This is the original cave. Here are some meat, big stick bones, and a small amount of seeds...

These are all brought in from outside.

After some experiments, anything brought directly from the outside world can only be placed in the cave space, and those that have been transformed by Taoyuan can be taken into the infinite space.

And the infinite space is attached to the peach garden instead of the cave...

In short, Taoyuan's ability to evolve is the greatest good news.

Moreover, Taoyuan will most likely evolve once a year, and we will see the results next time during the Chinese New Year.

In the next two days, Jia Yi has been playing wildly with his two sisters, building snowmen, having snowball fights, skating...

"Brother, you'd better stop sliding..."

Xiaodang nodded in deep agreement.

"Well"

Jia Yi stopped in embarrassment. Xiaodang Huaihua immediately pulled her brother away for fear of being embarrassed.

"Brother, you have fallen several times..."

"That's it, don't play with us, it's embarrassing...Sister, let's go."

With that said, the two sisters left poor Jia Yi behind.

There is no way, Jia Yi was from the south in his previous life, and he had hardly seen such heavy snow a few times, let alone skating...

Just laugh at him, Jia Yi doesn't care. Anyway, he is getting thicker and thicker now.

I quickly practiced a few more times and finally couldn’t fall anymore...

"Xiao Dang, watch the ball..."

"Ah, bad brother... Sophora japonica, let's go together..."

As they spoke, the two of them quickly stopped, grabbed a handful of snow, and smashed it...

"You two little ones still want to hit me...hehe..."

Jia Yi flexibly dodged left and right, but the sisters were too weak to hit him.

Jia Yi lightly hit his sister with a snowball and laughed at her.

"Ah, who hit me..."

"It was my brother who broke it. Xiao Huankai came to help us..."

"coming…"

"Xiao Yi, Xiao Danghuaihua, stop playing and go home for dinner..."

“…go home”

The children finally stopped when they heard their mother's call...

"Hey, where's my brother..."

Xiaodang looked at everyone in the field with confusion, and was stunned for a while, then he realized that his brother was missing...

"Sister, aren't we the ones beating my brother? Where are my brothers?"

"Stop looking, let's go home and eat."

Jia Yi walked from the sidelines with a smile on his face and walked behind his two sisters, patting their two doubtful little heads.

It turned out that in the middle of the snowball fight, Jia Yi saw that more and more people were participating, and many of them were targeting himself...

Jia Yi deliberately muddied the waters, smashed snowballs behind people's backs, and provoked conflicts...

In the end, of course, it’s the Thirty-Six Stratagems, and walking is the best strategy.

Afterwards, the two little girls reacted, their little faces bulging with anger.

Jia Yi doesn't care, it feels better this way, and he can pinch the little faces of the two sisters...

However, Jia Yi was also educated by Qin Huairu for bullying his sister...

There has been something wrong at home these past two days, and even the two little ones have felt it, dragging Jia Yi to play with him until very late every day.

Jia Yi also secretly asked Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu respectively.

However, both of them were tight-lipped and said nothing...

Jia Yi was blinded now. He didn't know anything and couldn't do anything, let alone how to persuade him.

Fortunately, it was time to start work. At six o'clock in the morning, Uncle He came and knocked on the door. Jia Yi quickly got up...

Went to the kitchen of the steel rolling mill with He Yuzhu.

"Where's Xiao Yi? You guys know me too. I'll be working in the kitchen starting from today. Don't worry, your quota won't be taken up..."

"I told you about this last year..."

"He is still in school. He just comes over to practice basic skills when he has time. He is considered my apprentice."

He Yuzhu summoned the canteen staff and briefly explained the situation.

"Hello everyone, I'm just here to learn a craft."

"Ma Hua, please teach Xiao Yi how to use a knife. Well, you will start cooking from noon today..."

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and realized that Ma Hua had been an apprentice for more than three years and was ready to take the next step.

"Master, I'm afraid I won't be able to do well..."

Ma Hua was a little uneasy. This was his first time cooking. If he didn't cook well, then...

"Don't worry, this is a big pot dish. As long as the oil and salt are right, there won't be any big problems. Besides, I will be by your side to remind you."

If you want to be a chef, knife skills are an essential entry-level basic skill. It is also a never-ending skill.

Ma Hua can be said to be Uncle He's most proud disciple. He is honest, obedient, and has solid basic skills.

This is indeed the best teacher for a beginner like Jia Yi.

"Hey, Brother Ma, congratulations to you, and I will trouble you to teach me in the future."

"Thank you, we are all fellow disciples, this is what I should do.

Come and watch...

The first step in knife skills is to hold the knife. You can see that your thumb is holding one side of the knife, your index finger is naturally curved to hold the other side, and the remaining fingers are also naturally curved to hold the handle...

Remember, don’t hold it too tightly, and you need to use the strength of your wrists to cut vegetables..."

Ma Hua demonstrated while talking.

I just have to cut pickles in the morning.

"Xiao Yi, look at my left hand. You must press the ingredients tightly with your left hand and not let the ingredients slide, otherwise it will be easy to cut your hand. Also, only the knuckle of the middle finger of your left hand is slightly protruding to resist the kitchen knife, so you will not cut your hand..."

“When cutting vegetables, we should face the table and chopping board, and we must not bend over or hunched over, otherwise it will be bad for our health...

Well, you are still young and not tall, so let’s do this. There is a small table in the back, I will get it for you, and you can start practicing.”

"Okay, Brother Marco."

Ma Hua brought a small table and arranged the chopping board.

"Brother Ma, why does my left hand feel sore and painful after I can't press it for a while?"

"You are too nervous. In fact, you were like this at the beginning. Just practice more...

Just relax, don't press the ingredients too hard, and you should always remember to stick out only the knuckle of your middle finger and hold the knife upright. It's normal for you to be afraid of knives now that you're just learning."

"Well, Xiao Yi, you are just starting out, don't be impatient, take your time, and if you have any questions, ask MCA..."
