Math professor returns to routine

Chapter 57 Christmas Eve

Time is like water, passing away without return.

In a blink of an eye, it will be December 12th, Saturday, and tonight is Christmas Eve.

Two weeks have passed since the day Lu You pulled Tang Wan's little hand.During this time, they made no progress.There was neither a new hug nor holding hands again, returning to the original state of the two.

It's not that Lu You didn't want to, he wished he could take Tang Wan home and sleep with her arms around her.It's just that they haven't had time to get along alone in the past ten days, and they are still in school, so it is too obvious that some things cannot be done.

As for the preliminaries of the top ten singers on campus, without accident, he successfully passed and was directly recommended to the finals, even the preliminary rounds were exempted.

The bell rang for the end of the third quarter in the afternoon.

"Brother Lu, can you explain to me?"

Lu You was used to Yuan Wenliang's daily emotional counseling, and it became a daily must-have program.If he didn't ask, Lu You would feel that something was missing.

Lu You put away the textbook and turned sideways, assuming a posture of listening carefully.

"You speak, I'm listening."

"Tomorrow is Christmas, do I need to give her a present?"

"Did you ask her herself? What did she say?"

"I asked. She once said, 'Christmas is not a traditional festival, there is no need to make so many bells and whistles'."

"Then what are your plans?"

"I think what she said is reasonable. There is no need to celebrate foreigners' festivals, so I am not prepared."

Ah, this man is hopeless.

How did Ye Hongsu like this wood?
After reading so many books, he has also read many stories about gifted scholars and beautiful ladies. How could he be so stupid?
Lu You didn't want to complain about Yuan Wenliang anymore. It's not like he didn't understand how to treat girls when he told him every day, but he just couldn't apply what he learned.

"She said it was wrong, so you really don't give gifts?"

Yuan Wenliang tilted his head, with great confusion written on his face.

"Isn't that so?"

"Ugh!"

Lu You sighed, really didn't see it, put his right hand on his forehead, lowered his head and thought about how to explain to him.After a long time, she looked up at him.

"Let me give you an example. Now do you want to eat chocolate?"

"It should be, I don't want to."

"Then if, the teacher came to the podium and gave everyone a piece of chocolate, but you didn't have one. Even if you don't want to eat it now, how would you feel?"

Yuan Wenliang lowered his eyes, and imitated the scene he said in his mind, thoughtfully.

"I should, very unhappy."

"That's right! She said she doesn't care, but it doesn't mean that you can not give the gift. If you don't give it, she must be unhappy. If you give it, she may be unhappy. "

Yuan Wenliang raised his brows and asked puzzledly, "Why might you be unhappy after giving it away?"

"Will you be happy if I give you a set of women's clothing?"

Yuan Wenliang:_
"will not."

"You give her a gift at Christmas, not to celebrate this festival. It's to show that you care about her and let her know that you have her in your heart."

"En." Yuan Wenliang nodded, expressing his understanding.

"Do you know what to give?"

"At this stage, it is not suitable to send any jewelry or the like. It is best to give some food, fruit, milk tea, chocolate, cake, etc., in fact, it is fine. Of course, it must be in line with her wishes, and it must also reflect your intentions. .”

"It's so difficult!"

"At the beginning, it was like this. When we first met, we didn't know each other. What she likes, what she doesn't like, and what her personal habits are. It takes time and effort to understand."

Yuan Wenliang's head grew bigger when he heard it.For him, pursuing girls is no less difficult than studying physics, if not more difficult.

Lu You patted him on the shoulder emotionally, with a feeling of sympathy.

"Let's learn slowly, who is born to make girls happy?"

"You! How well you and Logan are doing!"

Yuan Wenliang looked enviously at the scrunchie on Lu You's wrist.This thing, no boy will take the initiative to wear it, unless it is someone's request.

Lu You caressed the hair tie on her right wrist, Tang Wan's figure appeared in front of her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

"I'm not born with it either. I just watched those up hosts who are in pairs at station b, and learned it a little bit."

He was made a lot of dog food by the sci-fi section of station b.

Every night when I browse station B, a dog abuse pops up on the homepage from time to time.He was like a passing dog who was suddenly kicked.

"Brother Lu!"

Yuan Wenliang grabbed Lu You's hand, and said seriously, "Can you share a few videos? Let me watch and emulate."

Just as Lu You was about to speak, Meng Yi's ecstatic voice came from the side.

"The two of you are together! Don't I have a chance for those two goddesses?"

The two quickly pulled their hands back, and Lu You also pulled down his sleeves to cover the hair tie.If this big mouth sees it, it will be terrible.Although he doesn't mind others knowing, he doesn't want to be a talking point in his mouth either.

Lu You turned around and saw Meng Yi carrying a schoolbag and holding an apple in his hand.

"There is a lot of urine in the toilet, you can wash your face before you wake up."

"Heh! Brother Lu, you are Chi Guoguo's jealousy!"

Meng Yi took out the apple in his hand, walked around in front of the two, and showed off, "Did you see it, what is it called?"

Yuan Wenliang stretched his neck, observed carefully, and said honestly, "An apple."

"No no no! This is no ordinary apple. This is..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu You answered directly for him.

"Deputy squad leader Li Womeng's apple."

Why did Lu You know?Because she was the only one who sent one to the whole class.

"How do you interrupt someone!"

Meng Yi complained to him, and then continued: "Yes, this is the recognition of my charm by the deputy squad leader. Do you think the deputy squad leader has a crush on me? Yes, Tie has a crush on me! Do you want me to accept her confession to me? ah?"

The two looked at him speechlessly, where did this guy get his confidence?

Yuan Wenliang would take his face into consideration, but Lu You couldn't bear his complacent look.

"Do you like apples?"

"Huh?" Meng Yi didn't understand what he meant, he just thought he was complaining about someone giving him apples on Christmas Eve.

"It's not a question of whether I like apples or not, but the deputy squad leader's recognition of my charm, do you understand?"

"Oh."

Lu You made a perfunctory sound, then lifted a full plastic bag from the ground and placed it on the table, which was full of big, red apples.

"The two of us received these from the girls in the class today. If you like to eat them, I will give them to you."

The bright red apple was like a sharp knife piercing into Meng Yi's heart.

I saw the smile on his face, like ashes floating in the wind, disappearing in an instant.

"No... isn't it just a dozen more than me? I just want the deputy squad leader to send me this one!"

Lu You continued to make up the knife.

"You're right. There are two of them given by her, why don't you pick them out and take them?"

"Nm! I won't play with you anymore! I'm going to fire you!"

Meng Yi shed tears and fled in despair.

If you don't give him some aggressiveness, you won't even know who you are.

Lu You chuckled, and then began to pack her schoolbag.

"Aren't you going to study with Logan tonight?"

"No, there is still something to do. Let's go first."

After speaking, Lu You picked up his schoolbag and walked out of the classroom.

……

Shen Garden, Beiyuan.

After dinner, Lu You put on the apron, set up the camera, and started recording.

The camera has stored his entire process from cocoa nuts to white chocolate two weeks ago.

First, the nuts were dug out and fermented in a sealed and constant temperature for up to seven days. For this reason, he specially bought a fermentation box, and every night he went home to absorb water and turn over the samples.

The cocoa beans are then put into the oven and dried repeatedly to reduce the water content so that the chocolate aroma can be stimulated.

Next, the dried skins of the cocoa beans are removed and crushed in a crusher.Use a filter bag to pack the crushed cocoa beans, steam them in a steamer for half an hour, and squeeze out the cloudy cocoa butter with dumbbells in the gym.

Finally, filter the turbid cocoa butter to obtain translucent cocoa butter, add icing sugar and milk powder, stir evenly, heat up the mold, put it in the refrigerator to freeze and solidify.Successfully obtained round and smooth white chocolate yesterday.

In the whole process, Lu You can be said to be very skilled, without any mistakes.In his previous life, he had made chocolate more than once, and he was familiar with the experience of failure.

Lu You took out a few pieces of chocolate and a basin of ice water from the refrigerator, ready to melt the chocolate and start to adjust the temperature.

At this time, he found that one piece was a few centimeters short.

"Mom, how can you steal it!"

Shen Yuyin's confident voice came from the living room.

"What is stealing? Isn't it just for eating?"

"I'm still useful! What if it's not enough?"

"Cold salad! Anyway, I've already eaten, what can you do? I haven't said that you spend my husband's money!"

I rely on!

How can there be such a rascal mother!
Lu You had no choice but to endure it.I am someone else's son, so I have no reason to refute.Although it cannot be said that there is not enough chocolate left, the fault tolerance must be much lower.

He put the chocolate into a stainless steel melting pot, and melted the white chocolate plate little by little with 40°C water.Then pour 2/3 of the melted chocolate liquid on the marble tempering board, scrape back and forth with a chocolate tempering knife, and measure the temperature with an infrared temperature measuring gun from time to time to ensure that the temperature is not lower than 27 degrees Celsius.

At this time, Shen Yuyin who heard the voice walked to the kitchen, wanting to see what his son was doing.

When the temperature was about to drop to 27°C, Lu You shoveled all the chocolate liquid back into the pot, and finely adjusted the temperature with ice water and a heat gun until the chocolate liquid remained at 30°C.

A boy with an outstanding appearance is enough to attract a girl's attention.What if this boy is in the kitchen, wearing an apron, making dessert seriously?

That can only be described as unparalleled, no one can resist this scene.

Shen Yuyin was like this.

Lu You's calm, serious, and concentrated appearance reminded her of the scene of Lu Jianyan that touched her the most.Make milk tea for her in the kitchen.

As expected of my husband and I!

With such an appearance and such craftsmanship, how could anyone not be tempted!
Lu You's scalp was numb from being watched by his mother, and he felt uncomfortable.

"Mom, what are you looking at?"

Shen Yuyin came back to her senses, and said casually: "It's okay, you can continue, I'll just take a look, just pretend that I don't exist."

Well, I have to let my husband pay for food tonight.

On the other side, Lu Jianyan, who was playing with his little lover on the second floor, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and a catastrophe was imminent.

Lu You looked at Shen Yuyin suspiciously, but unfortunately he didn't find anything weird, so he had to give up.

"Mom, how does the chocolate you eat taste like?"

"It's very good, the taste is silky, the milk flavor is rich, and the sweetness is just right."

Lu You nodded, since the taste is not bad, let's start the concave shape.

He didn't plan to give the white chocolate board to Logan directly.This feeling is still lacking a little bit of thought. It just so happened that he saw a chocolate chrysanthemum making video at station b, so he just came to restore it.

"Son, what else are you going to do? Isn't the chocolate ready?"

Lu You smiled slightly without explaining too much.

"Just watch."

At this moment, a VX call rang from the mobile phone next to it, and the name of VX displayed on the screen—Wan, Shen Yuyin and Lu You all saw it.

Shen Yuyin grabbed the phone, tapped the answer button and the speaker, and put the phone back on the table.The movements were done in one go, and Lu You didn't even have time to react.

A voice like water and singing came from the phone.

"Hey, Lu You, can you hear me?"

　Sign in today, thank you for watching, I was able to sign the contract
