Chapter 254 The magic power of legendary food(1/3)

After Zhu Yaxue successfully snapped up a "fan welfare" peach blossom shortcake, she stopped focusing on it and started looking for other story materials.

Jiang Yu and his Jiang Da Qi Canteen were just one of the many materials for her story. As a magazine editor, naturally she would not put all her hopes on him.

Otherwise, if Jiang Yu's story is too mediocre or boring, she will be blinded.

After working mindlessly for a day or two, just when she had almost forgotten about the "fan welfare", the courier was delivered.

"Xiaoxue, this express delivery is from Jiangzhou. Who sent it to you?"

In the magazine, a girl Yue Yue, who was about the same age as Zhu Yaxue, came up to take a look and asked with interest,

"Didn't you go to university in Chang'an? How come you still know people from Jiangzhou University?"

"This is something I bought on Douyin."

Looking at the tightly packed small package in front of her, Zhu Yaxue, who was originally irritated by some trivial things in the magazine, suddenly became excited.

Is this the "fan welfare" peach blossom shortcake that I snapped up?

Does it really taste as crispy, crispy and delicious as those netizens said in the Douyin comments?

Of course she knows that to objectively evaluate whether a food tastes good or not, she cannot hide and taste it by herself. One person's taste is biased.

Only if everyone says it is delicious, then the food is really delicious.

This is also the reason why Zhu Yaxue chose the delivery address to be at the magazine instead of at home. It was delivered to the magazine so that everyone can have a taste.

Thinking of this, she turned around and smiled at Yueyue and said to her,

"It's a mille-feuille pastry made with peach blossoms. I heard it's very delicious. Let's try it together later. How does it taste?"

"Peach blossom cake?"

Yueyue's pretty brows furrowed into a peach blossom. She blinked her big eyes and said hesitantly,

"The shortbread tastes very dry, right? You have to take a bite of the cake and a sip of tea. Otherwise, you will choke, right?"

Just wait a minute, I’ll make some water first!”

As she said that, she turned around, ran back to her work station, and filled the cup with tea.

"..."

Zhu Yaxue was speechless.

She shook her head and ignored her. She turned around and took a utility knife from the table, gently cut open the tape on the package, and then carefully took out a beautifully packaged paper box from inside.

This box is so beautiful!

The lid of the box is beige, with four large black characters "Peach Blossom Crispy Cake" written in the center of the front, and the words "Jiang Da Qi Canteen" on the side. On the other side, there is an ancient poem related to peach blossoms.

This ancient poem seemed a bit unfamiliar to Zhu Yaxue, as if she had never read it before.

The box body under the lid is bright yellow and looks very high-end.

"Ah! This box is so exquisite! Is it filled with peach blossom shortcakes?"

At this time, Yueyue had also come back. She was holding a cup of slightly steaming tea in her hand. She looked at the gift box in Zhu Yaxue's hand and said with surprise,

"'The peach blossoms smile beautifully outside the fence, as if they are the most affectionate before they bloom.'

This ancient poem is so artistic, and this store looks very cultured at first glance!

The peach blossom shortcake made by such a cultured shop must be delicious, right?"

"Whether it tastes good or not, we'll know soon."

Zhu Yaxue smiled and was about to open the box when several other people from the magazine heard the noise and came over.

"Hey, Xiaoxue, did you buy something delicious? Give me some to try too!"

"Nowadays, the packaging of these food sellers is becoming more and more beautiful, but I don't know if this cake is delicious?"

"I've eaten cherry blossom cakes and rose flower cakes, but I haven't tried this peach blossom cake yet!"

"..."

The editors in the magazine often go out to collect news and materials, but there are not many people who stay in the office. Now they all gathered in front of Zhu Yaxue's workstation, looking at the peach blossom shortcake box in her hand, and chattering.

stand up.

"Don't be impatient. It's up to you to see it. Let's all taste it later and tell you whether this cake is delicious or not?"

Zhu Yaxue said with a smile, raised her hand and opened the lid of the box, revealing six peach blossom shortcakes inside the box.

Each of these six peach blossom cakes is packaged in a separate plastic cake tray with a slender colorful sticker on it, which looks both clean and classy.

"Let's not talk about whether this peach blossom cake is delicious or not. Just from the packaging, you can see that the store has put a lot of thought into it."

Yueyue looked at the six peach blossom shortcakes arranged neatly in the block, her eyes lit up, and she praised,

"It's not like some restaurants at all. The food is randomly packed together. It looks dirty and messy. It makes people lose their appetite."

"Indeed, whether the food is delicious or not is secondary, but it must be clean, otherwise who would dare to eat it?"

"Haha, that roadside stall is so dirty, not to mention the garbage is everywhere, and they also use gutter oil, don't you still have a good time eating it?"

"What nonsense are you telling the truth!"

"..."

"Okay, okay! One by one, so many words!"

Zhu Yaxue reached out and took out a peach blossom shortcake from the box, then put the rest on the table together with the box, curled her lips and said,

"Hurry up and try it to see if this peach blossom cake is delicious. Remember to tell us how you feel after eating it."

A male colleague reached for a peach blossom cake and joked with a smile:

"Xiaoxue, it's just a cake, you don't want us to write down our thoughts after eating it, do you?"

After Yueyue and the other girls heard this, they all laughed so hard that their flowers trembled.

"If you, a great talent, are willing to write, then of course it would be best!"

Zhu Yaxue glanced at the man and said with a smile,

"I'm worried about what to write in the next issue of the food column."

"Wow! This, this peach blossom cake is really crispy!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Several people were talking and laughing when a exclamation suddenly rang in their ears, startling Zhu Yaxue, Yue Yue and others.

Everyone followed the sound and looked aside. They saw a female colleague with a bulging mouth. She seemed to be eating something. Her face was full of surprise. She was holding a peach blossom shortcake in her right hand and a spread in her left hand.

Open it and hold it in front of your chin.

Everyone could clearly see that her open left hand was covered with yellow cake crumbs.

Seeing everyone staring at her, the female colleague was stunned and urged:

"Why are you looking at me? Eat quickly, this cake is delicious! If you don't like it, leave it for me!"

As she said that, she opened her mouth and carefully took a bite of the shortbread in her hand. She seemed unwilling to waste it, and even licked the crumbs of the biscuit that fell on her left hand into her mouth bit by bit.

Seeing the female colleague's expression as if she had eaten a fairy fruit, Zhu Yaxue didn't pay much attention.

This female colleague likes to be surprised. Even after eating a pack of instant noodles, she can praise it as a rare delicacy in heaven and a unique delicacy in the world, and even drink the soup completely...

With her behavior, Zhu Yaxue even suspected that in the eyes of this female colleague, there was nothing unpalatable in this world.

Although the evaluation of this female colleague is not credible, to be honest, Zhu Yaxue still envies her.

Everything she eats is delicious, so how happy her life must be.

Shaking her head, Zhu Yaxue put aside the chaotic thoughts in her mind, picked up the peach blossom shortbread in the plastic cookie tray, put it to her mouth and took a small bite.

With just one bite, the crust of the peach blossom cake seemed to be under the weight of a thousand pounds, and it cracked into pieces layer by layer.

A strong aroma emanates from the cake and goes straight to the nose. This aroma also carries the fragrance of peach blossoms, as if you are in a peach blossom forest ten miles away. As far as you can see, there are clusters of fresh pink peach blossoms...



Zhu Yaxue held her breath subconsciously.

It seems that only in this way can this refreshing aroma stay longer.

It seems that only in this way can the consciousness stay in that dreamlike ten-mile peach blossom forest for a longer time.

Zhu Yaxue was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but take another bite of the peach blossom shortcake in her hand.

It is crispy, sweet and glutinous, but not as greasy as other shortbread cookies. The refreshing fragrance of peach blossoms makes people feel like they are in spring. The pores all over the body seem to have been washed out, and the whole person feels a lot more transparent.

Zhu Yaxue couldn't help but close her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and while eating the peach blossom shortcake in her hand, she experienced this rare "journey of consciousness"...

I don’t know how long it took, but when she opened her mouth and wanted to take another bite of the peach blossom cake, her fingers suddenly hurt!

Zhu Yaxue suddenly opened her eyes, and suddenly realized that, unknowingly, she had finished the peach blossom shortcake in her hand.

The pain in her fingers just now was because she accidentally put her fingers into her mouth like cakes!

"It turns out that I can be so stupid sometimes."

Zhu Yaxue couldn't help but burst out laughing. She was reading popular science news and saw that when a snake is hunting or eating, if its body is contaminated with the smell of food, it may swallow its own body as well.
