Rebirth and farming: the prosperous days of the eldest sister of Nongmen

Chapter 30

Ye Xing made enough Jiuxin lotus root starch pearls one night in advance, because she was afraid of being damaged before serving, so she didn't release the mold.When the cook of the Lin family saw Ye Xing brought in a lot of wooden molds, she laughed.

"Huh, she knows how to use molds to emboss flowers. It's a pity, these ladies have never seen such delicate patterns. The molds are not as fine as the ones we carved with knives."

Another cook pouted while stewing the meat and said, "Did you see it just now? What a mess she brought. Flour, bean paste, and sweet-scented osmanthus honey. Hey, the only thing that can be put on the table is milk. It's a pity. Ah, I heard that milk is very smelly, and our second girl hates it so much."

The cooks immediately lowered their heads and laughed. She was indeed a country girl. She probably only heard that milk is precious, and that ordinary people couldn't drink it, so she brought a bucket here. She was afraid that she would disappoint the second girl today.

Wang Shi was mentally prepared before she came. She breathed out and immediately started pouring out flour and noodles.The cook who had something good to do looked over to Wang's mother and daughter, and asked hypocritically: "What are you doing, do you want me to help?"

"My mother is going to make pancakes, and I'll prepare the other ones. I won't bother you if there are three desserts in total." Ye Xing knew that she had bad intentions when she saw her like that, and she didn't want these people to learn from her. prescription.

The cook didn't intend to help Ye Xing at all, she got together with the other cooks and prepared to cook after she had finished pretending.

Only Wang's mother and daughter are busy at the stove in the corner.It is more convenient to make sweet-scented osmanthus crispy cheese. Ye Xing boiled the milk before the cake was steamed, and then poured it into Linfu's plum green glazed porcelain bowl with lotus pattern. Steam in a pan.

At this time, Ye Xing helped to make the dough into the shape of a flower, and the chefs in the Lin Mansion had already started to prepare the dishes.As Ye Xing made more and more bouquets, the cooks also tried their best to pour cheese on various precious fruits and arrange them carefully.

When the dishes and snacks were put on the table in the kitchen, the wives and young ladies of various families also tasted them one after another. However, they had banquets such as flower viewing, tea tasting, and poetry writing several times a month, and these things were already commonplace.So everyone could only skip the food, praise Mrs. Lu for taking good care of herself for a while, and praise the prosperity of the people in the Lin family.

"Grandmother, I have also prepared snacks for the ladies, let them serve them quickly." Lin Xuelan said to the old lady when she saw that it was almost time.

It's rare for a granddaughter to be so sensible, so Lu's naturally complied, and quickly asked the back kitchen to serve snacks.In fact, at this time, the ladies had already eaten enough, and when they heard that there was still a snack, they could only forcefully smile and praise Lin Xuelan for being filial and sensible.

Ye Xing served Jiuxin lotus root powder pearls first, and there were only two on each plate, which made everyone heave a sigh of relief.Because the pearls are made just right for eating in one bite, many people put the whole thing in their mouths. Unexpectedly, the sweet and sweet smell of wine emerges from the soft, waxy and smooth pearls. The unexpected taste has won unanimous praise from everyone.

Therefore, when the second sweet-scented osmanthus cheese was served, no one objected.The creamy and rich yogurt melts in the mouth, and the cool feeling also makes the ladies who have been baking in the greenhouse for a long time feel refreshed for a long time.

"There is one last dish, this one is a big snack." Lin Xuelan announced to everyone excitedly.

Now all the ladies really couldn't eat any more, and each of them watched helplessly as the bouquet of milk and fragrant cakes was delivered.

"Xue Lan, this, isn't this a very lively flower-shaped pancake that was circulated in Fucheng some time ago." Thanks to the ring event, even the noble lady knew about the pancake made by Ye Xing.

"This cake looks good, but we really can't eat it anymore, you see..." A lady wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said in embarrassment.

Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Xuelan and said, "Xuelan, ladies and gentlemen, how can you eat pancakes? Don't make things difficult for her anymore."

"Grandmother, how could I not know that this cake is specially made into a bouquet, and please take a closer look to see if the flowers inside are the ones displayed by our Lin family?" Lin Xuelan explained with a smile, "These are all It is for everyone to bring back, so that those who have not come can know what flowers were admired today, and it is quite beautiful to hold a bouquet out."

The ladies looked down and found that the flowers inside were indeed taken out by the Lin Fu for appreciation today.

"Xuelan is so kind, she even thought of these things." A lady patted the hand of the little lady beside her and said, "If my daughter can be like Xuelan, then she really doesn't have to worry about it."

Su Shi listened to the praise of Lin Xuelan from all the wives and kept smiling. There was no emotion on her face, but Lin Xuezhi beside her pouted.One must know that in the past these wives liked to praise her Yuxue's cuteness the most, so it was the turn of the annoying Lin Xuelan.

The Lin Mansion's flower viewing banquet was a great success, and each wife left the Lin Mansion with a bunch of milky flowers in satisfaction.

Lin Xuelan took Ye Xing to see Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Lu knew that Lin Xuelan was such a delicate person, so she guessed that someone would help.

"Let's talk about what you want to do by looking for help from outside. It's not really to compete with your stepmother for the limelight."

Lin Xuelan hurried forward and took Lu Shi's arm and said coquettishly: "I know that nothing can be hidden from grandma, grandma has really sharp eyes!"

"Let's be honest, I've been talking with you for a whole day today, and I'm very tired."

"It's not a big deal, but I promised Ye Xing that if she behaves well at this banquet, I will give her our milk. Anyway, the raw milk is not good. I can drink more if I give it to her. Don't you always say It's good for your body."

Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Xuelan looking at herself innocently, and then thought of Mrs. Su's calm face, and sighed in her heart. Girls as old as her in other families have started to learn housekeeping from their mothers, and even Xuerou has an aunt Planning for her, only Xue Lan is still like a child, what can I do in the future.

Ye Xing broke into a cold sweat for herself when she heard what Lin Xuelan said, fearing that Mrs. Lu would misunderstand that she had lied to Lin Xuelan, she immediately said: "Second Miss Lin just wants to introduce me through this banquet. Buy excess milk from your mansion by a catty."

Mrs. Lu nodded. There is no precedent for selling milk in Xunyang Mansion. Anyway, these cows have been raised in Zhuangzi all the time.Left and right Xuelan loves her snacks, and after selling them to her, Xuelan will still have a good time.

"Okay, I'll ask Mother Xu to take you to see the steward later. If you want to buy milk in the future, just go to him directly, and the price will be as you said."

At the same time, news spread in Fucheng that Mrs. Ye was once again in the limelight at the Lin Mansion's Flower Appreciation Banquet, and even Guan Shi Wan in Washe heard about it.

"Boss, why did you imply that the guild would accept Ye Xing before? Wouldn't it be better for us to use some means to drive her out of Fucheng? Isn't it even more difficult to deal with her now that she is showing off?"

Wan Guanshi sneered, "You, you are still too young. The best way to deal with a scheming girl like her is to keep her under your nose. There are so many twists and turns in Fucheng, even Mr. Shen Xiaolang is afraid. I don't know. The longer she stays in Fucheng, the more difficult she is to get out of Fucheng. If you don't believe me, just wait and see."
