28 Decorations (1/2)

The next morning, Jiang Jianguo drove with a boot full of wooden molds to Health Restaurant. There were not only molds, but also a few big pots, and big bags of red beans, green beans, and peas that had been soaked overnight. A huge load of stuff, all dragged into the back kitchen.

Since his eldest aunt had been diagnosed with the Three Highs, she could no longer indulge in pastries that were high in sugar, Jiang Jianguo had no use for this pile of materials.

The kitchen had been divided into two parts, one for Jiang Jianguo to make pastries, and the other for their normal business. Customers were scarce during the weekends, and deliveries were scattered as well. Ji Yue could handle everything alone. So Jiang Feng sent a message to Qiu Chen and the others, telling them that they did not need to come to the store to help out today.

Wang Xiulian and his eldest aunt had made an appointment to go to the beauty salon for a facial together and had left early in the morning.

”Xiao Feng, I didn't know what kind of pastries you wanted, so I had just soaked some beans first.” Jiang Jianguo emptied out several bags of beans into the big pot, filling it to the brim.

”Let's finish using up these beans first. I still have a few kilograms of noodles there. I'll make some Cantonese noodles later at night.” Jiang Feng said.

Everything was ready. They would have to make Sweet Pea Pudding, Mung Bean Cake and Red Bean Cake.

Jiang Feng put the peas in the pot to boil, Jiang Jianguo put the red beans in the pressure cooker, and then they sat next to the pot filled with green beans and began to peel them.

It was hard work to peel mung beans, but if they wanted to make fresh Mung Bean Cakes and didn't want to buy mung bean flour on the market, they could only do so.

Jiang Feng could only help out with this kind of basic work. When the beans were boiled and pressed, there was basically nothing else for him to do. There was a knot in Jiang Jianguo's heart regarding the proportion of raw ingredients, how to mix it, and what ingredients to bind them.

He had been rubbing off the mung bean's skin for two hours. The skin on Jiang Feng's own palm was about to be rubbed off as well when he finally finished dealing with the big pot of mung beans. After he had placed the mung beans in a pressure cooker. Jiang Feng was pretty much done with his work.

Jiang Jianguo was cooking pea mash. Seeing that Jiang Feng was done with his chores, he pointed to several big dark bags on the ground and said, ”Xiao Feng, you can take a look and see what kind of mold you want.”

When he opened the bag, it was full of wooden molds.

Needless to say, many of them must have been looted from the old master.

There were animal-shaped ones, flower-shaped ones, all kinds of flowers, long and wide, square, round, heart-shaped, engraved, everything that one could want to find was in there.

An unaware person might have thought that he had come from the mold factory.

Jiang Feng picked a few good-looking ones and felt that he was in a safe position to clinch victory.

Just with these molds, it would be hard for the chess clubs to not recruit anyone this year.

In order to thank his eldest uncle for his help, Jiang Feng asked Liu Zixuan to help him buy some popular floral tea yesterday.

His eldest aunt had been infatuated with health preservation recently. She had already posted several complaints on her social media that she couldn't buy the popular floral tea that kept getting sold out. Liu Zixuan's family had a wide range of business contacts as they were businessmen. If his eldest aunt was elated because of the suprise, his eldest uncle's allowance for this month might just get doubled.

From top to bottom, the wives in the Jiang family had always been the ones in charge of the money. If Old Master Jiang wanted to improve the food for his treasured pigs, he had to ask for the old lady's consent.

Ji Yue had already finished delivery of all the food and was sitting in the shop, bored and playing on her mobile phone, upon seeing Jiang Feng coming out of the kitchen, she looked up and asked: ”All done?”

”It's still early.” Jiang Feng found a chair to sit down.

”Jiahui has finished the flyers. Take a look. She's going to go to the printing shop to print it now if there are no problems.” Ji Yue handed Jiang Feng her mobile phone.

The design of the flyer was very simple. It was nothing fancy, and the apparent product of cut corners. If not for the five big characters ”Chess Club Recruiting New Players” on it, Jiang Feng would've doubted whether this was an advertisement flyer for Health Restaurant.

There was even the QR code of the official account in the lower right corner.

Jiang Feng expressed his great satisfaction with it.

”That's it. Print it, please. Can you remember how much money our club had left last year, Senior? ” Jiang Feng asked.
