Chapter 1661: Chapter 1661: Three Plus Two Bouncy Ball

"Ah?" Lou Lan, puzzled, looked at Elder Chen, "Elder Chen, do you know what persimmon cake with butter is? Is there such a dessert?"

Taotie is simply Taotie, and Old Chen smiled: "I know, Little Taotie has some taste."

"Do you know how to make it?" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Of course!"

Lou Lan felt relieved and said over the phone to Little Taotie, "Hold on, teacher is coming to find you with something delicious!"

The call ended, and Little Taotie’s face was blank.

Yuanyuan asked, puzzled, "What’s wrong? Why are you spacing out?"

Little Taotie tilted her head and, in a cute voice, asked, "You call her Teacher Lou, is she your teacher? Will she be my teacher too? What subject will she teach me?"

"Teacher is just a title, it doesn’t mean she teaches us any subject," Yuanyuan explained.

Little Taotie’s eyes were full of confusion, "But... it sounds like she is going to be my teacher."

"No way, that’s impossible." Yuanyuan waved her hand, "She’s a famous Old Witch, back then some people wanted to learn from her, but she was unwilling to accept apprentices and treated those who approached as laborers, eventually they all ran away."

Little Taotie furrowed her little brow, "But..."

Yuanyuan pinched her little face, "Alright, don’t think too much, what could she teach you? Bone Crushing and disguise, or how to be a quirky Psychologist? Are you interested?"

Little Taotie was confused by the pile of questions tossed her way.

Seeing the beautiful pupils of the little girl almost forming a swirl, Yuanyuan laughed aloud, "Don’t think too much, soon you’ll be able to eat liver pizza and persimmon cake butter, are you happy?"

Children have a short memory, once the topic shifts, they’ll stop thinking about it immediately.

She nodded vigorously, "Happy! I’m looking forward to it!"

Butter was sliced into thin pieces, and Elder Chen removed the heart from the persimmon cake, leaving just the skin and a layer of flesh.

The persimmon cake was sliced into pieces, its size nearly identical to the butter.

Next was the assembly, Elder Chen didn’t do it himself but called on Lou Lan to do it.

Lou Lan was once again used as a laborer.

Lou Lan was somewhat helpless; she used to order juniors around, but in front of Elder Chen, she became the junior to be ordered around.

Stacking the persimmon cake and butter, three layers of persimmon cake and two layers of butter, forming a three-plus-two block.

"That’s it? Nothing else needs to be done?"

Elder Chen shrugged, "If you feel it doesn’t look nice, you can shape the stacked pieces into small round balls so that it’s easier to eat, one bite for each. The squares need biting and the persimmon cake can stick to your teeth, which isn’t very elegant."

Lou Lan found this reasonable, so she wrapped the sticky "three-plus-two" in cling wrap and molded them into balls.

The orange color had a transparent sheen, a crystal-clear layer, followed by a creamy yellow layer, then another layer of persimmon cake and butter, forming a sphere like a bouncy ball, looking quite pretty.

Lou Lan couldn’t resist her curiosity and put a persimmon cake butter ball into her mouth.

Originally thought to be a bit hard, but once molded into a ball, the warmth from her hands caused the persimmon cake and butter to slightly melt, reaching the optimal tasting temperature.

This is somewhat like the concept of sushi, molded by hand, emphasizing the Sushi Master’s hand temperature. Most sushi masters are men because men’s hand temperatures are lower, making the sushi taste better.
