After a few days, this matter finally came to a perfect end.

And time has quietly arrived on the day of the Lantern Festival. After the Lantern Festival, this not-so-peaceful New Year has finally come to an end.

Li Xiao originally wanted to come to the monitor to wish him well in his old age. After all, the monitor was very helpful in this matter.

If there is no squad leader, let alone whether Zhao Buhui can be sent in, whether he can come out intact is still open to question.

However, when he contacted the monitor, he learned that the monitor had already traveled abroad two days ago, so his plan to come to thank him fell through.

On the Lantern Festival, Li Xiao’s family has the custom of eating glutinous rice balls.

Many people think that Yuanxiao is Tangyuan, and Tangyuan is Yuanxiao. In fact, this idea is wrong. Although the two are very similar, they are not the same thing at all.

The glutinous rice dumplings are filled with soft fillings, and there are many choices of savory, sweet, meat and vegetable options.

Yuanxiao stuffing is a bit hard and usually has a sweet taste.

Tangyuan is mostly eaten boiled or stir-fried.

Yuanxiao is mostly eaten fried, but it can also be eaten boiled.

The soup after boiling glutinous rice balls is clear soup.

The soup after boiling Yuanxiao is turbid.

Generally speaking, people in the north eat Yuanxiao more often, while those in the south prefer glutinous rice balls.

The Li Xiao family eats glutinous rice balls, usually with peanut and sesame fillings.

Of course, the habit of eating sweet glutinous rice balls started with his father's generation. Li Xiao still vaguely remembers that when he was a child, he used to eat salty glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival.

At that time, the glutinous rice balls did not have any fillings. They were small solid flour balls. However, when cooking the glutinous rice balls, cabbage, pork, chicken, and sometimes even some dried squid were added.

Li Xiao's grandfather really liked eating the salty balls made into salty dishes, but he was not very sensitive to it.

During the Lantern Festival in previous years, Li Xiao's parents had already started working. After all, an extra day of work would mean an extra day of money.

Moreover, many factories start operations before the Lantern Festival, and not only are there red envelopes for starting work, but also 1.5 times the salary. After all, many people believe that the New Year ends after the Lantern Festival.

So I don’t have time to make glutinous rice balls by myself. I can only buy some ready-made glutinous rice balls in the mall every year, boil them in water during dinner, and finally add some sugar to celebrate the festival.

But today it was rare for the family to celebrate the Lantern Festival together, so Li Xiao went to the market to buy ingredients to make glutinous rice balls.

After a long absence, I opened the live broadcast of Mao Mao on my mobile phone. In the past few days, incidents of people being inferior to dogs have flooded every corner of the Internet. Li Xiao, the person involved, can hide whenever he can.

To be honest, if he is willing to take advantage of this wave of popularity and live broadcast for five or six hours a day, he may earn a small million a day. If he meets some wealthy people with a strong sense of justice, I am afraid this number will be even more.

.

But Li Xiao is unwilling to do this because he feels that receiving live broadcast rewards from viewers at this time is like doing good deeds for the sake of popularity and traffic.

Therefore, the suspension period, which was originally planned to end in three days, was accordingly extended to seven days.

Li Xiao was a little nervous. He had never rested for such a long time.

There was not even a minute of live broadcast time for 7 days, which is unimaginable for any anchor.

After all, today's society is very cruel. Not to mention not broadcasting for 7 days, even if it is not broadcast continuously for two or three days, I'm afraid the popularity will drop a lot.

After all, if you don’t come to live broadcast, there will always be others who are willing to come to live broadcast. The live broadcast industry is very substitutable.

Instead of looking at yours, look at other people's. Anyway, there is no need to worry about reading a whole page of candidate lists. That's why it happened that the former top lady in the food area fell into the world in just two months.

Moreover, Li Xiao is still in a period of rapid development, and no one would be willing to make such a decision.

However, what surprised him was that although he had not started broadcasting for 7 days, his popularity did not decline much. It had not been long since it had been broadcast.

The number of people online in the live broadcast room has exceeded 150,000, and this number is still rising.

Although this number of people is indeed higher than the peak of the previous few days, when there were more than 200,000 people online as soon as the broadcast started. The number of people is far different, but it is already quite good.

After all, the traffic brought by popular people is too huge, and he never dares to hope to regain his glory.

Moreover, people nowadays are very forgetful. Seven days ago, the "People Are Not as Good as Dogs" incident was a sensation among the people. Today, seven days later, not many people have mentioned it. It seems that everyone has completely forgotten about it.

[Xizhou Banquet] The five-star hotel also reopened 7 days later, that is, yesterday.

However, they are somewhat self-aware and opened quietly, without even making any announcement on their official website.

He didn't even set off the firecrackers needed to reopen the business, quietly for fear that he would return to a hot spot.

He greeted the audience:

"Long time no see. I would like to wish all the viewers a happy old age and a happy Lantern Festival to all my brothers and sisters."

The atmosphere in the live broadcast room is quite good. After all, the saying that ignorant people are the happiest is quite reasonable.

"Hello, handsome anchor!"

"Happy Lantern Festival, anchor!"

"By the way, didn't the anchor participate in the Han Food Festival? Why are you still staying at home now?"

"Anchors have been working outside all year long to celebrate the New Year. Is it too much to go home and rest for more than ten days?"

"There is really nothing more important than going home during the New Year."

.....

Seeing that the audience was concerned about when he would start eating and drinking all over the country, Li Xiao said:

"The Dahan Food Festival may need to be postponed for a few days, because tomorrow I will fly to the capital to take the star chef test."

"In addition, I have to report to the national sports team in the capital. Of course, I am not a full-time athlete. I only applied for a part-time spot, but I will have the opportunity to participate in competitions in the future."

After he finished speaking, the barrage in the live broadcast room fell into a state of silence for two seconds. There was a brief moment of calm. Just when everyone thought they had disconnected from the Internet, barrages appeared overwhelmingly.

"Wait a minute, I seem to be having auditory hallucinations. It must be that I ate too much greasy food during the Chinese New Year and blocked my ears."

"Can anyone repeat what the anchor just said? I seem to be hearing hallucinations too!"

"I'm not surprised that the anchor can get certified as a star chef, but what happens next?"

"Join the national sports team? Or part-time?"

"This is the first time I've ever heard that our national team has part-time players. With so many people in our country, we still need one part-time player?"

"I suspect the anchor is bragging and there is actual evidence."

....

Seeing the questioning voice in the barrage, Li Xiao scratched his head to prevent his credibility from collapsing.

He hurriedly ran to his room and found the red first-level athlete ID and the invitation letter for the national team.

When these two things that were very real at first glance appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the live broadcast room became quiet again.

After all, anyone with any brains knows about this kind of national-level certificate, but no one would go out of their way to fake it just to brag.

Moreover, it is also displayed in public, so there is almost no doubt about the authenticity of such a certificate.

Of course, there will be no shortage of sports enthusiasts among the more than 100,000 spectators, and there are even a few who are professional athletes themselves.

"I went to get a real first-class athlete certificate. My teacher has the same one. It is still hanging in our Taekwondo gym like a treasure."

"My brother-in-law is the coach of the national sports team. During the Chinese New Year, I heard him say that the national team was so crazy that they hired a part-time employee. I didn't expect that person to be the anchor."

"I'll go, does anyone here remember that we saw a pretty exciting table tennis match?"

"Hiss! Could it be that that table tennis match was not an exhibition match but a real one?"

"Anchor, just tell me what else you can't do? It doesn't matter if your cooking skills are so good. After all, it is your job. Now you tell me that you are still a first-level athlete. It's so scary!!!"

....

Li Xiao waved his hands lightly and said very modestly:

"It's all trivial. Don't be too nervous. Now that you've read the documents, you should be able to believe me."

Having easily solved the credit crisis problem, Li Xiao returned to the kitchen and walked to the workbench again.

"Okay, let's get down to business. Today is the Lantern Festival, so I'll make glutinous rice balls for everyone."

"The making of glutinous rice balls is very simple. Since there are only three people in our family, I will show you a kind of glutinous rice balls today, which is filled with sesame and peanut fillings."

"As for wonderful fillings like red bean filling, cantaloupe filling, bitter melon filling, and bacon filling, I will make them for you again when I have the opportunity!"

As he said just now, the steps for making glutinous rice balls are very simple. They are basically divided into three steps. One is to make the thread, the other is to make the skin, and the third is to boil.

"First we need to fry the peanuts and sesame seeds to make the filling."

"First of all, in the first step, we soak the peanuts in water for 5 minutes. Soaking has two functions. One is to wash away the dust on the surface of the peanuts. The second is to effectively prevent the skin of the peanuts from scorching during the frying process.

."

"After soaking for 5 minutes, the originally dry and flat peanuts have become slightly plumper. At this time, we can take the peanuts out and drain them."

"If possible, you can place the drained peanuts on dehumidification paper to absorb the moisture."

"Because if there is too much moisture on the surface of the peanuts, the oil in the pan will easily splash everywhere when the peanuts are put into the pan. This is because the density and heating temperature of water and oil are different.

"

In order to reduce everyone's waiting time, of course he had soaked the peanuts in advance and drained the water.
