Chapter 610: Carving a bear paw mold! Dundun: My aunt is so generous, my aunt cooks dumplings without breaking the skin! [Please subscribe]
"This is a set of tools that should be enough for you."
In the courtyard of the West Second Ring Road, Deng Lisong handed a high-end aluminum alloy toolbox to Lin Xu, along with a fixed table for carving and several pieces of thicker birch wood.
Wood carvings generally use mulberry, birch, black walnut and other woods.
Wood carvings made from this type of wood are not easy to crack or deform when heated.
A few years ago, Deng Lisong traveled with his parents and saw wooden bowls that had been used by Tibetan people for generations. He found them interesting, so he bought a set of tools and carved a bunch of wooden bowls, basins and various decorations at home.
.
However, as a jade carving master, wood carving is only used for leisure and relaxation, so after the heat passed, he never touched it.
Lin Xu opened the box and saw various styles of carving knives inside.
Flat-head carving knife, pointed-head carving knife, oblique-point carving knife, curved carving knife, elbow carving knife, straight spade blade, oblique spade blade... Various carving knives and matching hammers and other items, common wood carvings
The tools basically cover everything.
"Thank you very much, Master Deng."
Cai Sen next to him said:
"Thank you, thank you. Just cook some delicious food for us to try later... What are you doing?"
Lin Xu said:
"Bear paws, you can't eat real bear paws now, so I plan to make a simulated one. This wood is just for making molds."
Upon hearing this, Cai Sen immediately became interested:
"Damn! Then I have to try it. I am the only one in our family who has never eaten bear paws. Whenever my grandfather eats something delicious, he will compare it with bear paws and talk eloquently for a long time, and then look at me with a look of regret.
, It’s a pity that you were born too late and didn’t catch up with the good time to eat bear paws, so you can’t taste them... let alone the strong taste.”
Deng Lisong picked up the furry George and kissed him:
"Have you ever said that about your elders?"
"My grandpa is like this. You often go to my house. It's not like you don't know. Just tell me if he likes playing. He brags about everything he eats for a long time. He doesn't learn any of the benefits of the Eight Banners disciples. He spends all day being meticulous.
”
Lin Xu said:
"Then when the bear paws are ready, let your grandpa taste them and see how different they are from real bear paws."
"Hum, it's hard to say whether he has eaten it himself. You should have known after staying in the capital for so long that these old Yanjing people have no other abilities. Each one is better than the last when they brag."
Lin Xu: "..."
You are really an anomaly among the children of the Eight Banners. You will dismantle your own family all day long. Fortunately, the Qing government was overthrown, otherwise you would have been dragged to the food market and kicked off.
After loading these things into the car, Lin Xu said goodbye to the two of them and drove back to Linji Food.
After dinner, the family drove back.
Dundun, who had slept all afternoon, lay down on the sofa in high spirits and started watching TV. Shen Jiayue was thinking about the progress of the Explosives Expert game and planned to complete the game today.
Lin Xu took the tools and wood to a small room on the top floor, set the table, took out the wood, opened the tool box, and started carving.
Just as he was about to start working, Shen Jiayue rushed up with a tripod and camera:
"I promised netizens to take photos of you doing carvings, but I almost forgot."
Lin Xu asked curiously:
"Do netizens know that I want to make wood carvings?"
"I know. In the afternoon, Sanmu made a preview in the fan group and Lin Ji's food topic. He also posted a photo of you carrying a tool box and wood. Fans were very excited. Many wanted to take a photo and see.
Your process of making wood carvings."
Lin Xu didn't object and let Shen Jiayue come.
This girl has set up three cameras, one in front of the side, one directly above, and one above the side. The three viewing angles basically cover the entire wood carving process.
In addition, she also set up a small card camera in the distance to take time-lapse photography, enriching the material.
After finishing these tasks, she went downstairs and continued playing games.
Lin Xu, on the other hand, fixed the wood, took out the tools, used a pencil to draw the outline of the bear's paw on the front of the wood, picked up the chisel and hammer, and started digging grooves.
Carving is a delicate physical work. When doing it, you have to cut out a groove in the wood.
After the rough outline is complete, remove the excess wood, then use small carving knives of various shapes to enrich the details, and finally polish it to make the surface smooth and burr-free.
This process is relatively long, but Lin Xu does not pursue speed. He just treats it as a time-killing activity after get off work every day, just like playing games and setting up Lego.
Moreover, doing this kind of carving can also exercise your hand strength, allowing you to grasp the strength more accurately.
Lin Xu worked slowly and finished at ten o'clock in the evening. He went downstairs to turn off the TV and urged Dundun to go to bed. Then he went to the study to cut off the Internet and power to save a certain Internet addicted girl who was addicted to the 4399 mini-game.
p>
"I haven't passed the level yet, the last level is super difficult!"
Lin Xu pinched the good baby’s cheek:
"It's time to rest, I have to get up early tomorrow."
What he originally wanted to say was that if he didn't rest, he would have a midnight snack, but he was afraid that saying it would remind the girl, so he forcibly dragged her out of the study on the pretext of getting up early.
In the next two days, Lin Xu worked in the shop during the day and carving at home at night.
The carved mold is then polished little by little with various types of sandpaper. This not only makes the mold more beautiful, but also removes the burrs of the wood, allowing for better demoulding.
Shen Jiayue released a short video of Lin Xu doing carvings on her account, and silently added two sentences:
"It seems that some people question the authenticity of carvings and just posted a short video to prove that my man can really carve. It also proves that even if Linji goes bankrupt, my man can still support me."
With this wood carving skill, let alone becoming wealthy, at least food and clothing will not be a problem.
Apart from anything else, just live broadcasting wood carvings can attract many people who like to watch such manual decompression videos.
The sight of carving logs bit by bit into various ornaments, utensils, and even character shapes is very comfortable to think about, especially when paired with the original sound of the carving knife chipping away at the wood bit by bit, it is definitely comparable to the white noise of rain.
In the comment area of the video, netizens rushed over.
"It feels like you posted a video specifically just to spread the word."
"You won't go hungry even if Linji goes bankrupt. Ordinary people can't make enough in a lifetime just from the promotion fee from Maisharui."
"Lin Kee went bankrupt and Ziqiang Shengjian was in business. The business was so booming that my friend switched jobs from Chaoyang to Haidian because he couldn't eat Ziqiang Shengjian."
"If Lin Ji goes bankrupt, you can still go back and inherit the scenic spot. I heard that there is a horse racing farm inside. This is definitely a big investment."
"Hey, hey, hey, why do you people upstairs keep talking about Lin Ke's bankruptcy? With Lin Ke's current state, will it go bankrupt? Yesterday, my buddy complained that it was difficult to book Lin Ke's private rooms, one week in advance.
We didn’t book the largest private room.”
"Even if we have nothing, we still have Dundun. The Holy Master of our Miao Miao Cult can make money to support the family. It's not like he can't make money."
"..."
Shen Jiayue stood in front of the service desk, happily looking at the comments from netizens, and then scratched Dundun's chin:
"They actually said they would let my good son earn money to support the family. We couldn't bear to do it."
Dundun snored happily, looking very comfortable.
While muttering, Chen Yan walked over from the door:
"It's settled. Dundun will get a 1.6% share of this auto show, which is much higher than the 1.25% last time."
After tasting the sweetness of having Dundun help carry goods and sell cars last time, Li Shiqiang rejected the company's proposal to hire popular artists for the spring auto show platform, and was ready to try again. If possible, he would sign a long-term cooperation agreement to avoid being betrayed by others.
The company was poached.
When discussing cooperation, Chen Yan also asked for promotion invitations from the anchors of Happy Media, and won the online promotion contract for the auto show.
Based on the turnover of the last auto show, Dundun can earn at least 3 million this time.
You can really succeed by relying on your little guy to make money to support your family.
"Dundun, when I get the money, I won't take a penny from it. I'll give it all to you after paying the tax."
Chen Yan rubbed the little guy's head twice, saying that she didn't want to earn money from her nephew.
Upon hearing this, Shu Yun quickly said:
"Godson, if you don't hurry up and say thank you, your aunt is so generous. I wish her the dumplings won't break when she cooks them."
When Dundun heard this, he immediately rubbed his head against Chen Yan to express his gratitude.
Chen Yan muttered:
"What's wrong with wishing for someone else? It has to be boiled dumplings. I haven't cooked dumplings since I was a sophomore in high school and turned them into a pot of soup."
"Then you can try again, what if you succeed this time."
"Forget it, the head chef has retired from the cooking circle, and my cooking skills are gone. Now I don't want to cook, I just want to make money."
But after all, Mr. Chen still wants to go back and cook a bowl of dumplings for Ren Jie... Forget it, let's just cook glutinous rice balls. Try cooking a bowl of glutinous rice balls.
If the skin is broken, I will hang up the little fat cat in front of me tomorrow and beat it!
Dundun glanced at her aunt sideways, flashed her paw, and then retracted it.
Chen Yan glanced at Shen Jiayue's mobile phone screen and asked:
"The carving hasn't been finished yet? I've been starving and losing weight these past two days waiting to eat bear paws."
"Come on, we'll start recording the bear's paw competition tomorrow, and we'll also make duck stew with lucky fish... Are you really hungry and have lost weight, Yan Bao?"
Shen Jiayue raised her hand and pinched Chen Yan's belly:
"Hurry up and lose weight, Yan Bao. The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the fat on your belly can hardly be covered."
"Aren't you also...eh? Are you secretly losing weight?"
"No, I haven't bothered to eat late-night snacks recently, plus I have to do aerobics every morning and do yoga before going to bed at night, so I have lost weight."
Chen Yan’s face was full of grief and anger:
"That's not fair!"
She attacked Shu Yun again and found that there was no fat on Shu Yun's belly.
Wow!
Why is it that everyone has lost weight, but I still wear a swimming ring?
In fact, this is no wonder for others. Ren Jie comes off work early and late, and usually eats some kebabs and a glass of beer to relieve his fatigue. Although Chen Yan does not drink, she will also eat one or two meat skewers.
After going back and forth like this, the fat will naturally gradually grow.
As for Shu Yun and others, if they don't eat late-night snacks at night and exercise regularly, they will naturally lose a little weight compared to the days during the Chinese New Year.
"Okay, okay, if you don't cry, even if you are fat, you are still the most beautiful among fat people."
It's okay that Shen Jiayue didn't comfort her, but this comfort made Chen Yan even more emo.
"Starting from tomorrow, even if there is a knife from the sky, I will ride a bicycle to and from get off work to lose weight and lose weight!"
Maisarui's bicycles have been delivered, and everyone has one.
Shu Yun reminded:
"That car is not cheap. Be careful when it is parked downstairs of the company. Don't let anyone steal it."
"No, the car comes with GPS and Beidou dual positioning. Even if a thief steals it, the police can find it based on the pictures."
After all, she is the fiancée of a criminal police officer. As soon as Chen Yan got started, she carefully studied the anti-theft function of the bicycle.
Shu Yun also has one, but she puts it directly in the living room of her rented apartment. She is not willing to ride such a good car to and from get off work.
Chen Yan said:
"Just follow the prompts and open the positioning. Just ride when you have to. A bicycle worth more than 100,000 yuan can be sentenced to several years. Anyone who steals it will give my family Ren Jie some business."
In the evening, dinner started in the store.
Lao Huang, who had shaved his hair and was wearing a denim jacket, came to the store to eat.
Compared with the past, he has lost a lot of weight, is very energetic, and doesn't complain about sleeping in the living room. Obviously, after successfully losing weight, he has become confident again.
"Brother Lin, when are you going to use the duck tomorrow? I'll prepare it in advance."
He washed his hands and sat down, picked up a bowl of lettuce leaves and purple cabbage mixed with sesame sauce, and ate it with the meat on the table.
The core of the ketogenic weight loss method is not to eat any carbohydrates. In addition, you can eat other vegetables as you like.
Lin Xu put a piece of mutton with skin into the bowl and said while eating:
"After lunch tomorrow, the stewed duck needs to be simmered for a long time, and the abalone must be soaked in advance, otherwise the stewed duck will not be delicious."
Lao Huang is naturally very excited about this kind of dish:
"Then I'll bring two more ducks tomorrow, and I'll try this dish too."
"Okay, Brother Huang, feel free to come over. Professor Cui is just coming back from a meeting, and my senior brother is coming too. You guys can have a drink together."
In the booth next to her, Chen Yan was eating a vegetable salad instead of the staple food.
The vegetables are very rich, including lettuce, purple cabbage, cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, and bitter chrysanthemum, plus corn kernels, red kidney beans, cooked eggs, and fried steak.
When mixed with salad dressing, it's not unpalatable, but a little bland.
Especially when she was eating mutton stew with skin next to her, Chen Yan felt that life was a little sad.
She finally understood why her uncle looked so miserable every time he mentioned losing weight, which was really frustrating.
But it has to be reduced. After all, everyone has lost weight. If you carry a swimming ring by yourself, you will definitely be ridiculed and ridiculed by Wenjing, Yun, Xiaoqi and others.
Eating the vegetable salad in the bowl, she sent a message to Ren Jie:
"What time do you get off work in the evening?"
"Before eight o'clock, I might go back at seven o'clock."
Getting off work so early made Chen Yan cheer in her heart.
She sent a message:
"Well, I'll show off my cooking skills tonight and cook you some delicious food. Are you looking forward to it?"
"Looking forward to it, I have to look forward to it, I just like to eat what you cook."
Seeing this news, Chen Yan couldn't help but squint her eyes.
Hey, I'm getting better and better at talking, so I have to cook the dumplings tonight.
After dinner, Lin Xu explained what was going on in the store, then took the ingredients for tomorrow's breakfast, hugged Dundun, and went back from get off work with Shen Jiayue.
The mold will be officially ready tonight. It needs to be polished with sandpaper, then a layer of cooking oil can be applied for maintenance, and then it can be used.
After returning home, he turned on the TV for Dundun, but found that the little guy did not go directly to the sofa, but went upstairs, holding his little toys and putting them in the small suitcase.
Lin Xu was a little curious:
"What are you doing? Running away from home?"
Dundun put a few plush balls and small toys that he didn't usually play with, and then pushed the box outwards with his head, which made Lin Xu even more curious.
Are you really ready to run away from home?
Shen Jiayue said:
"Dundun was playing at Master Deng's house in the morning. George and Peggy kept pestering me. Cai Sen asked me for some toys with Dundun's smell, saying that they could coax the two little ones... Now Dundun is preparing for his younger siblings.
A toy?"
There is still such a thing.
Lin Xu rubbed Dundun's head vigorously:
"I didn't expect our Dundun to take such good care of his younger siblings, just like Gao Qiqiang."
When Shen Jiayue heard this, she patted Lin Xu:
"Xubao, please pay attention to your position. Gao Qiqiang is a villain. Does our Dundun look like a villain?"
This is really hard to say.
Lin Xu said:
"From our perspective, Dundun is definitely not a villain. Our son is smart and sensible, and he can also attract wealth. Dundun takes half of the credit for our family's wealth... But from Sister Yan's perspective, it's just
It’s hard to say.”
Shen Jiayue smiled:
"The villain is also Yan Bao, not Dundun."
After sorting out the toys, the little guy went downstairs to continue watching TV. Lin Xu helped him adjust the program, then went upstairs to continue polishing the carved bear paw mold.
And Shen Jiayue, after clearing the demolition expert level, is now playing cannonballing monsters.
This kind of web page game is fun and relaxing to play. It is more enjoyable than 3A masterpieces, and you can change it at any time when you get tired of it. It is very convenient and fast.
The other side.
Chen Yan drove back to the apartment where she and Ren Jie lived. She took a nice milk bath first, then opened the refrigerator and took out a box of black sesame glutinous rice balls brought back from the store last week from the freezer.
This is the most classic type of glutinous rice balls, and it is also Chen Yan’s favorite flavor.
She plans to cook this later.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, after receiving the news that Ren Jie was off work, Chen Yan washed the pot, put it on the stove, added purified water and started to boil the water.
The water was almost boiling, so she put the glutinous rice balls in.
Tangyuan is relatively hot, so you can cook it first so that Ren Jie can eat it when he comes back without having to wait for a minute.
Just as it was cooking, the cell phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.
Chen Yan ran over immediately. It was Sister Weiwei calling:
"Mr. Chen, there is feedback from the auto show promotion side. They feel that we have been promoting Dundun and haven't mentioned the auto show much. Let us adjust the promotion strategy."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan said:
"The center of traffic now is Dundun. Netizens will be disgusted if I mention the auto show directly... Well, let me contact Mr. Li and have a good talk with him."
After hanging up the phone, she took her cell phone to the balcony and started making calls, completely forgetting that there were still glutinous rice balls cooking in the kitchen.
Seven forty.
Ren Jie opened the door and walked in carrying some fruits bought downstairs.
When he heard Chen Yan calling on the balcony, he didn't bother him. He put down the fruit, put on his slippers, and when he heard the hood in the kitchen was on, he planned to go and see what was cooking in the pot.
Opening the lid, he looked at a pot of dark and thick soup with a somewhat surprised expression.
Is this... the black sesame paste you cooked for me?
Glancing at the pretty figure who was still talking on the phone on the balcony, he stirred it twice with a spoon. When it was almost ready, he turned off the heat and served himself a bowl.
After a busy day, no matter what food I have, I want to grab it as soon as possible.
He scooped up a spoonful from the bowl, blew it gently, and put it into his mouth to taste. His expression suddenly became surprised. At this moment, Chen Yan just finished her phone call.
Before she could speak, Ren Jie said:
"Yanyan, the black sesame paste you made is so delicious. It tastes great. It's much better than the black sesame paste from the south... No wonder you dared to pretend to be the executive chef of Linji Food. It turns out you have some skills.
Well, this sesame paste is so good, I can probably eat two big bowls of it."
Chen Yan:?????????
What happened?
I remember I cooked glutinous rice balls, but... why did they turn into black sesame paste?
On the other side, a certain kitten was lying on the sofa watching TV. He turned over comfortably, his eyes full of the joy and excitement of having succeeded.
Fighting with your aunt is endless fun!
