After dinner, everyone moved the extra tables and stools in the middle of the dining hall to the outside temporarily, leaving a space for Xu Qing to use.

After eating the watermelon sent by Xu Qing, everyone is now working hard to help move the table and sweep the floor, and there are 30 tables in the middle.

The news of qingtingfang's coming to select new apprentices was told to these children when the Dean received Xu Qing's letter, so that those willing children could make preparations in advance.

The list of applicants was sorted out by the Dean yesterday. All the children in the academy are here. After asking who else wants to apply, they will be handed over to Xu Qing after they are confirmed again.

Because of the summer solstice, many of them signed up for the treatment of qingtingfang, but most of them didn't know anything about cakes.

Two years ago, Xiazhi and Anwen were just orphans in the Academy like these children. Now they have become pastry makers in qingtingfang. Their exquisite clothes set off their handsome beauty. Standing in a row, they compare other children with weeds on the roadside, which makes people envious.

A master politely smiles and comes to ask Xu Qing how many apprentices he plans to recruit.

Xu Qing: "I don't know how many. It depends on whether these children have the interest and talent in this field. I'm quite demanding. It's good to recruit one or two. Of course, I'll take all the good ones."

The other side nodded clearly, thinking it was the truth.

There are more than 500 children who have signed up. They are all 14 years old and above. The children who are too young don't know anything about it, but they don't have to worry. Anyway, Xu Qing will come again in a few years. These young children can talk about it later.

The dean and the teachers also explained this to you, so the children were all watching the fun, learning from the elders first and how the sisters did it.

The number of people who signed up was more than twice that of the last time. Fortunately, Xu Qing brought enough food, otherwise it would not be enough.

This time, just like back home, the content of the assessment is still learning how to make bean paste pastry. The bean paste pastry is brought by Chunhua who fried it in advance. These children just need to follow Xu Qing to learn how to make pastry.

Xu Qing wanted to give you a demonstration first, but it's not easy for 500 children to get a clear view of the whole process. Xu Qing simply demonstrated it every time he took the exam.

There are 30 tables. Each table has two children, a group of 60 people. Xu Qing is teaching in front of the table. These children are staring at each other. The children around them are isolated outside a circle of tables. Although they all stretch their necks, they are not so anxious at first. Anyway, each group has a chance to be taught.

The order in the academy is very good. No one makes trouble, and no one runs on others to take advantage of it. Although the Academy hopes to accept the orphans from all over the world unconditionally, those who are too bad and do not change after repeated education will leave the Academy in consideration of other children.

To leave means to be helpless. As time goes by, no one dares to make trouble in the Academy. Behind the scenes, you can directly talk to the master or the Dean about something.

After Xu Qing's demonstration, he announced that he would let the 60 children do it by themselves. Of course, there is a time limit.

Because the content of the last assessment is the same, the children who were eliminated last time have an advantage. After all, they have experience, which is better than those who don't understand at all.

In view of this, Xu Qing still did not choose to change the assessment content, even if there were some children who might have tried to make this kind of cake when they were helping in the canteen.

But what does it matter? What Xu Qing wants is children who are interested in doing and have talent in this field. Those who come to qingtingfang are not rare.

Because it's mung bean pastry, Xu Cha and Qingning are not very good at it, so they help to record it, while Chunhua's six new pastry makers each stare at a row to see how the children are doing. They hold a thread bound book in their hands. If they have good seedlings, they write down the reasons and notes.

Eight examiners are staring at each other. Xu Qing and Jiang Lu occasionally walk up to one of the children to watch for a while, and then quietly reassure them not to be nervous and take their time.

The examination is a race against the clock for the children in the examination room, but it is a very long time for other people. Xu Qinghe doesn't require other people to be around here. Everyone can do their own business as long as there is no noise.

Mung bean pastry is complicated to make, but as long as you remember the steps, it's very simple to wake up, relax and roll noodles repeatedly. You can't do it well without patience.

In the middle of seeing this, Xu Qing had a number of children in her mind. Instead of looking at them, she took out a list.

Five hundred and twenty-two people, at least nine tests, today is certainly not finished, so some children have to arrange until tomorrow.

After this group of children finished the competition, Xu Qing also divided the list. Today, there will be four competitions, and the remaining five competitions will start tomorrow morning, so the children who will take the exam tomorrow can tell them first, so as not to wait nervously here all the time.

As soon as the time came, those children who didn't finish had no choice but to stop. At a glance, one-third of them didn't make it at all. They didn't make it well when mixing noodles, and they didn't make it at all.Most of the rest are made in a strange shape. It's a round mung bean cake, but it just can't come out. Many people can see the color of the filling directly through the crust.

Only a small group of people are looking at the model.

No matter whether you do it well or not, the key is that the taste that comes out at last is the most important. You can learn other things slowly in the future.

The first group of children took their three mung bean cakes to the kitchen to bake. The oven was cooked by the cook in advance. As long as the mung bean cakes were put in, there were plenty of ovens in the canteen. After putting them in, there were masters staring at them, and there was no need to worry about confusion. The pastry was marked with numbers from one to sixty with a knife.

These children put mung bean pastry, then come back to clean the table and utensils for the next group of children to use, and then go back to the kitchen and wait for their own mung bean pastry to be baked.

Taking advantage of this moment, the Dean announced the list, let the next children to participate in the assessment have a number in mind, and then the second group of children went on the stage immediately.

After a while, the mung bean pastry in the kitchen has been baked. Sixty children put it on the table in bowls and put it in turn from one to sixty. After Xu Qing and Xu Qing came to taste it, they would have nothing to do here.

After a long time of production, when the fourth group of children baked the mung bean crisp, it was dark.
