Chapter 308: A sincere gift

The next day was Ye Jiayao’s class, this period would end in another seven days fortunately, Lu Xiaotian’s body recovered very well that he can get out of bed and walk. After this period, there were 15 days free, and Lu Xiaotian would return to class when the next period begins.

The dawn was right in front of us, and with that, Ye Jiayao got out of bed.

Xia Chunyu also wake up, squinting to see the clock on several leakage and starting to wear clothes slowly.

Ye Jiayao said, “Aren’t you a night shift today? Why get up so early? Get some more sleep!”

“No, I haven’t been to the farm for a few days. Director Zhao passed on a message that it’s almost finished. I must go and see it.”

Ye Jiayao was amazed:” How quickly”

“That is, no shortage of money, materials and manpower. Uncle Jiang was leading the construction. It should be completed.”

Ye Jiayao’s mind was spinning, ancient buildings were carved beams and painted rafters, just those engraving would cost many hours, unlike modern buildings, built with steel and cement, or modern equipment. It only needed a few days to build a building.

Anyway, things over there were Chunyu in charge, Chunyu’s requirements would only be higher than her, as long as Chunyu felt well was enough.

After breakfast, they went to guest The Duke and You, and went out together, one to the east, the other to the west.

Xia Chunyu’s horse turned the corner and stopped, and looked at Ye Jiayao’s carriage slowly went through, the corners of his mouth turned into a smile, the sincere gift was finally ready to give out.

He really wanted to go to the training class to see Yaoyao’s expression of surprise, but he still had something to do, he should wait until tonight, how Yaoyao would thank him? Really looking forward to it!

When Ye Jiayao went to the training class, she entered the restroom straightly, when she entered the room, she had an aneurism. Why Duan Qilin, Lin Changchun, and the members of the commerce were all in the room, what was the big deal?

“Why are you all here? “Ye asked curiously.

Duan Qilin laughed:” Manager Ye, I’m so admire you, you are so fierce.”

“Yeah! yeah! We went here as soon as we heard the good news. We couldn’t believe it!” Lin Changchun said.

“That’s great, our class is getting more and more famous… ”

Ye Jiayao was confused. What was up?

Were they talking about the Ye’s Dessert House? Didn’t they already know?

“Manager Duan, you… You mean what?” “Ye Jiayao said vacantly.

“Manager Ye, don’t be pretended, anyway, you credit the most.” Duan Qilin was seldom happy like this, he always very serious and deep.

Ye Jiayao said to herself. “What am I pretending? It was really without rhyme or reason.”

“Everybody was here!” A clear voice behind him rang out to sound.

Ye Jiayao got a momentary, was he Lu Xiaotian? Why he was here?

Twist a head to see, that was Lu Xiaotian, his injury was not cured yet, a hand still over her chest when he was talking. But he looked great and always smiling.

He was followed by a woman at about forty years old, who had a comely face and a slight smile, with a graceful bearing.

Duan Qilin stepped forward, his attitude was very polite, then he deeply made a bow:” Mrs. Rong, we are so honored that you can join our training class.”

“Mrs. Rong, it is a great pleasure for Jinling that you can get back.” Lin Changchun’s tone was grateful and delightfulness.

“Thanks to the Manager Ye.” Lu Xiaotian was smiled to Ye Jiayao softly.

Ye Jiayao blinked and looked at the woman. Was she Mrs. Rong? The first cook of Jinlin who claimed to be the most famous? Mrs. Rong, who had gone into hiding for many years?

Wait! Why did she say it’s her credit? She had never seen Mrs. Rong before, and she even didn’t know where she was. What was the misunderstanding in it?

Mrs. Rong stepped forward, her clear, calm eyes fell on her face, and she smiled:” Are you the second madam of Jing’an marquis house? Are you Ye Jinxuan?”

Mrs. Rong always give people a very gentle feeling, a kind of retired calm, but there was a sense of respect, perhaps the name of The First Cook, let people can’t be despised.

Ye Jiayao bowed her out of respect.

“Yesterday, I have already been to Heavenly Residence, tasted the new dish that you developed. It’s very good. I also wanted to go to Ye’s Dessert House, but I couldn’t enter in because I was not a member.”

Ye Jiayao was surprised, Mrs. Rong was think too much of her, even ran to the Heavenly Residence.

Mrs. Rong saw Ye Jiayao’s doubts and smiled,” I have not asked the world for many years. If not Jing’an marquis came to me, I still don’t not know that we have a great cook in Jinlin catering industry.”

Wait… She said Chunyu went to find her? Ye Jiayao suddenly remembered, a few days ago, Chunyu disappeared in the morning, he said to her he was prepare a birthday gift… Surely it didn’t mean that…

“To tell you the truth, if I didn’t satisfy yesterday, I wouldn’t be here today. Manager Ye, you are creative and mind nimble, nowadays the youngers is better than the elders.” Admired Mrs. Rong.

Ye Jiayao’s ability was recognized by everyone, and now it was even more convincing after heard Mrs. Rong praised.

Ye Jiayao smiled shyly:” You have overpraised.”

Mrs. Rong looked at the environment of the restroom and said slightly, “however, what really impressed me was the training class, which promoted the Chinese food culture. The first step should be the training class, Manager Ye, I’m respect you of your broad-minded.”

Uh… These probably all Chunyu said!

“Run this training class is the meaning of the Manager Lu, it’s everyone’s contribution. I just do a modest contribution.” Although she had thought before, she couldn’t take credit because it was Lu Xiaotian who first put forward.

Mrs. Rong heard the words, the affection for Ye Jiayao was deepened a few points, Ye Jiayao’s cooking may better than her, her idea was ingenious definitely above her, the key was she also has this breadth of mind, was so-called females were as excellent as their male peers.

If she had a bucket of water, she should water her plants, if she was a river, she should water the earth, and she was such a person, unlike her, who guarded a pool of water and slowly became stagnant. Mrs. Rong was ashamed when she thought of it.

“Well, if you don’t mind, I’ll do my bit.” Mrs. Rong finally decided.

Suddenly, everyone’s face showed a happy smile.

“Mrs. Rong can teach us cooking, we are very welcome, if those boys know that you are coming, I do not know if they will be happy to faint.” Lin Changchun laughed loudly.

“Well, Mrs. Rong, we shall be waiting for you to say this!” Lu Xiaotian’s face was flushed with excitement.

Ye Jiayao finally understood, Chunyu said the sincere gift was to help her to invite Mrs. Rong, the training class would added a superior gentleman, and she can also relief from the heavy schoolwork. Oh! What a gift! Ye Jiayao can’t say a word because of the proud of Mrs. Rong’s joining, but also because of Chunyu’s concentrated attention. As expected, the gift was full of sincerity.

“Mrs. Rong, I am very sincere and warmly welcome you to join us,” said Ye Jiayao.

Looking at all the excited people, Mrs. Rong’s heart stirred up a sentiment, the self-satisfied, as if rediscovered the life significance. She was glad that she made such a decision.

It was time for class.

Mrs. Rong offered to attend Ye Jiayao’s class, which made her a little nervous, as if she had returned to the university thesis defense meeting, where a group of academic authorities sat underground to examine her results.

She agreed because each of her lessons had been carefully prepared, not fooled, she was not afraid of being examined by Mrs. Rong.

Lu Xiaotian smiled.” I also want to listen, but I have to go back and take some medicine. Manager Duan, I must trouble you to treat Mrs. Rong well.”

“No problem. I’ll arrange everything.” Said Duan Qilin.

Ye Jiayao also smiled and said, ” Going back, keep your body well. All the students want you to come back to class.”

Lu Xiaotian smirked and left.

The students did not know Mrs. Rong, and it was strange to have a female audience, but their curiosity was soon piqued by Mrs. Ye’s excellent lecture.

Today Ye Jiayao told about the art of carving skills, which was in response to the requirements of students and additional courses.

Cooking of carve patterns or designs on woodwork. Firstly, was know what kind of feasts or banquets. Carved pattern had exquisite, it can be divided into birthday dinner, celebration dinner, dinner party in general. Secondly, understood host’s hobby and local customs, only this way can carve out guest’s satisfaction works. And the most important thing was material, it was the key to the success of carve patterns or designs on woodwork. Different material carving made different efforts. The collocation with dishes also has exquisite, to feast for the eyes, bring out the best in each other, and not a presumptuous guest usurps the host’s role.

So, carving what, was not arbitrary, there was a knowledge here to ask.

Having finished the theoretical knowledge, Ye began to talk about how to carve.

How to carve? The first thing was familiar with all sorts of knife method.

The commonly used methods of carving include cutting, whittling, carving, rotating, stamping and punching.

Ye Jiayao took a white radish as an example.

Turnip was the easiest material to caver. It was soft hard moderate, easy to shape, the most difficult was tofu carving, which needed to reach a certain level.

“If you want to carve something, you should have a bottom in your heart, and then choose the materials. Of course, experienced people can design the patterns according to the size and shape of the materials. ”

“What do you think this radish can be carved into?” “Ye asked.

Some people said it can carve a magpie, some said it can carve a fish, some said it was better to carve flowers, glittering and translucent got rid of, the opinions were vary from each other.

Ye Jiayao smiled, removed the radish’s outer skin and head and tailed neat and quick, here she used cut and whittle skills.

Then she shook the turnip in her hand and said, “Then carve a dove!”
