Section 32 The practice of glutinous rice cake
"Well, ahem...so that's what it is..."
Sitting in the main hall, Nara Yoshino, who was already breathing well, nodded slightly as a teacher: "Although I didn't expect that the woman from the Hinata family could teach others anything, but as a big family, I really didn't expect it to be so rude... It just so happens that I'll teach you, Leng Yu..."
This woman is really bragging. She first belittled Hinata a little, and then acted as an excellent teacher. If I hadn't seen her like a drunkard just now, she might have been fooled by her.
However, after thinking about it, I still put on the surface of the standard etiquette of master and apprenticeship, knelt across from her and bent down slightly at her: "Then, please give me some advice from Teacher Yoshino."
At this time, Ino, who was sitting under the eaves outside, couldn't help but look at me again. He still couldn't control his curiosity. He turned to ask Nara Kazuku who was drinking tea: "Then, uncle, what should Leng Yu and Auntie learn from the third generation? Leng Yu is an extremely dangerous person..."
"Uh...this...I really heard Yoshino say it..." Putting down the teacup in his hand, Lu Jiu closed his eyes helplessly: "Before this, what is your impression of Leng Yu?"
"That's more to say??Absolutely demon!!"
He almost jumped up excitedly. Inosuke pressed his chest with lingering fear, and whispered to Shikamaru next to him: "Do you know? There was a survivor hiding in a shop near her and saw with his own eyes that she had a recipe. It was not the name of the dish or anything else, but it was all the names of people!! In other words, she used people as food! Besides, have we been to the hospital once?"
He looked at Ino helplessly, and Shikamaru yawned: "You really like to believe the street news... I'm so troublesome, why do I have to evaluate others at will, and the partner is still a woman..."
Hearing Ino's exaggerated statement, he looked at Shikamaru with a clearly 'rejected answer' on his face. Shikamaru, who had a speechless face, unconsciously pressed his forehead: "Well... Ino shouldn't use such a scary statement. We had barbecue with Leng Yu in the barbecue restaurant just now... But what do you think?"
It seemed that I didn't know what to say. Nara Kazuhira touched his beard, which was not much, and thought for a long time before coming up with a more suitable entry point: "Ah...it seems that yesterday, the third generation suddenly sent Anbu to summon Yoshino, saying that it was a super-S-level combat plan that required Yoshino to participate..."
“Super S-level??!!!”
He was so scared by this sentence that he immediately sprayed all the tea in his mouth. Ino, whose eyes were wide open, stared straight at Qujiu in front of him: "Uncle!! That is the most important combat plan that almost involves the rise and fall of the entire village!! What is it!"
"Well... I was shocked and said..." I looked at Nara Yoshino and I, who seemed to be strange in the room, and Nara Kaku, who had returned to me, spread his hands: "But all three generations of adults gave orders, so Yoshino went... Later, I found out that the people who were called were the wife of the head of the Hinaga family and the wife of the Inuzuka family's Inuzuka family... "
After a pause, it seemed to be recalling the scene at that time. Lu Jiu continued: "Koshino came back after about half an hour. The content of this battle was actually very simple, which was to collaborate on educating Miss Uzumaki Leng Yu's daily etiquette and maximize the awareness of Miss Uzumaki Leng Yu's consciousness as a normal girl..."
He was choked by the content of this combat plan again, and Ino felt that her mind was a little bad: "This... is this?"
It became so serious that Qujiu shook his finger: "Ino, don't underestimate this battle! According to what the third generation told Yoshino, there are almost no ninjas in the entire Konoha village that can compete with Leng Yu. If Leng Yu does not have the consciousness of being a girl, he may have embarked on the road of darkness because of his excessive strength... Therefore, the third generation issued this battle. As long as it can succeed, Leng Yu's reserve and intellectuality as a girl will play a rational obstruction that cannot be ignored when she truly embarks on the road of darkness... and..."
After looking at me who was still talking to Nara Yoshino in the main hall, Shizuku's tone became careful: "You should also notice the unusualness of Leng Yu, the incomparable strength and unparalleled pride... Well, the most important thing is, do you think she looks like a girl? Of course, put aside her appearance."
After tilting his head and thinking hard, Ino opened his eyes thoughtfully: "Indeed... no girl is willing to wear sportswear that is no different from a boy... and I don't seem to have seen Leng Yu visit a clothing store or something... After you say this, I remembered that she doesn't have the smell of cosmetics at all..."
It seemed that something was involved in survival, Shikamaru was rarely serious: "If you say that, Leng Yu's behavior is not only not like a girl, but even more like a boy... And according to the news we just learned today, she should have completely defeated the Hyuga family... I'm afraid that this Konoha Village really can't find anyone to compete with her..."
"So, you know..." Lu Jiu let out a slight breath: "But, Shikamaru and I can't help at all in this battle... Ino, as a member of Konoha, you may also give Leng Yu a personal reference for how to be more like a girl."
"I understand..." Ino nodded hard, "Since it is such an important thing, then I will do my best to help Aunt Nara Yoshino!"
At the same time, in the main hall, Nara Yoshino, who looked at me seriously, finally opened his mouth to the point: "Leng Yu, since you want to learn from me, then let's learn to make something first..."
Uh? Making things?
I was a little suspicious, and I couldn't help but take a look at Nara Yoshino in front of me. Could this woman want to teach me how to make ninja instruments? However, I really can't tell that she has the power characteristics that can make ninja instruments.
"Because I think Leng Yu may not have any experience at all, so I will start with the simplest glutinous rice cake..."
However, Nara Yoshino's words almost made me stagger over!! Glutinous rice cake???!!!!!! Did she plan to kill the other party with the glutinous rice cake during the battle, or use the glutinous rice cake to make a trap under the enemy's feet, or put poison in the glutinous rice cake and throw it directly into the other party's mouth to poison the other party's mouth?
"Don't underestimate the glutinous rice cake!!"
However, just as I was thinking about it, Nara Yoshino in front of me obviously saw my distraction. My serious shout made me startled and I was shocked and sat down quickly.
"Although it is the simplest snack! But! glutinous rice cake is the best test of a girl's inner heart and ability!!"
Nara Yoshino's serious expression and tone opposite me made me feel awe-inspiring, but the next moment I immediately came back to my mind: No! It's all to do with my heart???
"Although Leng Yu is called the super genius of the village! However, I don't think Leng Yu can easily make good glutinous rice cakes."
Nara Yoshino's slow words immediately made me red: "Or, looking at Leng Yu's troubled look, I have no confidence in my ability. Do you think I can't make a good glutinous rice cake at all?"
Nani??????!!!
A big intersection immediately popped up on my forehead. There is nothing rare to beat me since I debuted in Konoha! Isn’t it just glutinous rice cake? OK!! I’ll let you see if my ability can make good glutinous rice cakes!!
"Since this is the case, then Teacher Yoshino might as well teach me how to make glutinous rice cake now..."
I put all my energy into my heart. I really don’t believe that the mere glutinous rice cake might stump me: “After all, the facts need results to support me, right?”
Seeing me like this, Nara Yoshino nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, you must have fighting spirit... In order to stimulate your independent creativity, I will not teach you how to make it directly, but I will give you the recipes and practice ingredients to refer to..."
Speaking of this, Nara Yoshino smiled at me strangely: Besides, in addition to that, I want to give you a very powerful opponent, Ino outside. She has been learning with me for a while. Do you have the confidence to fight her?"
I thought to myself that you want to be independent and creative? OK! I promise to make the glutinous rice cake that makes you unable to tell the difference between the east, south and north after eating... glutinous rice cake! As for the opponent, isn't it the Ino with the same taste as chrysanthemum tea? If I can't beat her, I might as well stop beating myself as a genius.
"It's okay, just let the horse come over!" Although I said so, I thought to myself if it was more appropriate to change my sentence to "let the pig come over". Anyway, Ino's family seems to be the pig among pigs, deer and butterflies.
I laughed in my heart, and I still had to remain calm on the surface. Well, I must strictly implement standard combat strategies, and those who look down on the surface and then those who look down on the surface and those who look down on the entire mind.
Obviously I didn't know the cold joke I was thinking, Nara Yoshino stood up and said, "Okay, let me compare with Ino for the time being and see what the difference is."
So soon...
Standing next to the two stoves of the Nara house, Ino and I stared at each other with big eyes and didn't know what Nara Yoshino was planning to do, but the answer came out soon.
"Since it is a competition that Leng Yu, a super genius in the village, I might as well let everyone watch it..."
Looking at the Nara people around me who were almost equivalent to those in the audience, I couldn't help but feel a black line. Nara Yoshino was too good at playing a show-off game, so I just let Ino and I come to play a duel. I don't know if she has made money for tickets. No wonder Shikamaru's father is so afraid of her. It seems that this woman is indeed black-hearted.
"It's an hour, and you can hand in the paper in advance..." Yoshino Nara, holding a big trumpet, stood in the distance and looked at Ino and smiled: "The content is naturally glutinous rice cake. I and the other wives of the Nara family act as judges. The props are already complete, so please start now."
Looking at the messy props on the desk, I really felt like I had no idea what to do. What a joke, it was almost the same to let me eat glutinous rice cake, so I asked me to make it? Uh... I regretted that I had impulsively agreed to this meaningless showdown just now.
However, I glanced at Ino opposite me. This girl seemed to be working very hard and was grinding glutinous rice flour hard. Well, no, there are so many people around me watching it. It would be too embarrassing to lose. It doesn’t matter. Is there a recipe anyway? Just let me see the steps and follow the process. Isn’t it enough?
Thinking of this, I felt a little confused, rolled up my sleeves and picked up the recipe and read it.
Well, the first step is to grind the glutinous rice into rice flour with small stone mill... So that's it. As long as the person who grinds the rice flour is a little relaxed, it may cause uneven force and make the rice flour unable to be evenly and meticulous. It is indeed quite difficult to pour it.
The second step is to steam the ground rice noodles in a basket. Oh, this step should be a test of your eyesight and judgment. How to judge the best heat to mix the rice noodles evenly. If you are not careful, it may cause the rice noodles to stick together. It is not easy for ordinary people to do it well.
The third step is the finishing shape, which also includes the final fusion of seasonings. Perhaps this step can be completed in the end, but not many people can do it perfectly. It is just like the simpler ninjutsu, which is the most difficult to upgrade.
Humph, however, this is naturally for ordinary people. Can I use the simplest three-body technique like the super s ninjutsu, maybe I am an ordinary person?
Putting down the recipe, I rolled my sleeves up a little more confidently. Hehehehe, be prepared to be surprised!! I will show you what a true genius in all aspects is!!
Chapter completed!
