Chapter Ninety-Three: Nervousness
In the process of starting to build the greenhouse in full swing, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming silently.
Early in the morning, Bai Qingshuang went to Wan Niang's house to match the garlands and then returned home to prepare the Mid-Autumn Festival dim sum, which was of course moon cakes.
Of course, a certain cream belongs to the kind of person who can only eat and can't make it, so with the memory of his previous life, he guided Bai Yao's to make puff pastry moon cakes, and the filling is also very rich, there are four kinds of pure meat filling, bean paste filling, red date filling, and sesame trapping.
Bai Yao's is really a kind of self-taught talent for kitchen matters, Bai Qingshuang's explanation is not very complete, but after she rolled out the dough for the first time was not too successful, the second time it improved a lot, and the layers of puff pastry looked very attractive.
"Mother, you are really a genius!" Bai Qingshuang praised without hesitation, and couldn't wait to let Bai Qingfeng burn the fire under the stove, she wanted to fry the cakes for a few months first.
Since moving to a new house, Bai Qingshuang and Bai Zhihong have deliberately begun to train his hands-on ability in addition to teaching Bai Qingfeng to read and count normally, although Bai Yao's heart is reluctant and worried that Bai Qingfeng will not do things well, but they are just silently paying attention to the sidelines, and it has not stopped their father and daughter's decision.
What surprised her was that although Bai Qingfeng was slow and his reaction was not fast, he could also complete what he told him to do safely.
Take the fire as an example, Bai Yao felt that it was too dangerous, what if he didn't move well and burned the kitchen, but Bai Qingfeng was unexpectedly calm, and very cautious, since learning to burn the fire for three or four days, he never led the fire outside the stove, which made her hang heart let go a lot.
Therefore, at this time, when I saw my son burning the fire under the stove, my daughter was standing in front of the stove with a small stool and fried moon cakes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
In fact, Bai Qingshuang herself didn't know very well, it was she who inadvertently exercised Bai Qingfeng's brain to use her brain, so that he could balance his hands and feet. Doing some simple chores through guò activates the brain cells and forms a virtuous circle.
Of course, the main reason is that Bai Qingfeng does not belong to the kind of severe cerebral palsy, but only mild, and because there was no best treatment for this disease in ancient times, and it was not tolerated by the world, the disease was delayed, and a child was almost ruined.
When the family of three was busy, Wan Niang hurriedly came over and called outside the kitchen: "Auntie, is Sister Shuang there?" ”
"Sister Wan, I'm here!" Bai Qingshuang immediately replied, "Come in, we're making mooncakes!" ”
"It smells so good!" When Wan Niang stepped into the kitchen, the mooncakes fried in the pot had already exuded an attractive fragrance, which made people suddenly salivate.
"It's going to be eaten soon, Sister Wan, wait a minute!" Bai Qingshuang said proudly, if she wasn't a kitchen idiot, she would definitely carry forward those pastries from her previous life in this other world.
"Auntie, your moon cakes are really similar to Qinfanglou's dim sum!" Wan Niang looked at Bai Yao's technique and said.
"Where can it be compared with the moon cakes in Qinfanglou, the moon cakes over there have been popular in our capital for more than ten years, and no one knows how they do it!" Bai Yao said with a smile, "This is just Shuang'er's greed, and she asked me to try to do it!" ”
Wan Niang and Bai Yao's words were unintentional, but Bai Qingshuang's heart jumped suddenly: What's the situation? Qinfanglou also makes moon cakes and sells them? Is it similar to the formula I said in my previous life? How could she have a strange premonition?
She remembered that the mooncakes of her time and space had already existed, but they were mostly sweet and greasy with oily skin, and the puff pastry was only available later, why did this time and space develop faster than the time and space of the previous life? But obviously there are still a lot of backward good or not!
Alas! She's confused!
"Yikes! Talking to you, I forgot that I came to find Sister Shuang on business! Wan Niang watched for a while, and suddenly remembered that she was not here to gossip, and she still had something to do!
"Sister Wan, what's the matter?" Bai Qingshuang stared at the moon cakes in the pot, watching Zizi flow oil, and after the fragrance became heavier and stronger, he felt that it should almost be ready to be cooked, so he asked while serving.
"It's the maid next to Miss Meng Er of the Protector's Mansion who said that she has something to look for you!" Wan Niang helped her bring a plate of mooncakes to the table first, and said, "I'm waiting at my house now, you can go with me!" ”
"Miss Meng Er's maid?" She wanted to eat a moon cake first, Bai Qingshuang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, asked Bai Qingfeng to stop burning the fire first, and then asked, "Is there a problem with today's garland?" ”
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, and she remembers that Meng Guanxing said that she will also enter the palace to participate in the moon viewing banquet in the palace from the beginning of this year, so she has put a lot of thought into today's flower change, why can't she still be satisfied?
"I didn't talk about the garland, Miss Pothos only said that the second lady wants you to go to the Protector's Mansion!"
"Huh? Still going to the Protector's Mansion? Bai Qingshuang was taken aback, and couldn't help but look at the coarse cloth clothes on her body, is she going to wear it like this? But she can't change her clothes.
Wan Niang also glanced at her clothes, coarse cloth light gray jacket, dark blue half arm, crescent white loose shirt and pants, skirt around the waist, embroidered shoes although the toes were not exposed, but they were also half-new and not old to wear the original color.
Only then did she realize that the little girl treated herself harshly for the sake of the family's life for the better, and she did not like to buy new clothes like the little girls nowadays, and she was simple and unpretentious, which was admirable and distressing.
Bai Yao's clan naturally noticed it, and couldn't help but say a little ashamedly: "Shuang'er, go and change into that new set of clothes!" ”
said that it was new, but in fact, it was just a coarse cloth clothes, but the material was a little newer, and it was still to participate in the birthday banquet of the old man Bai, and the family spent money to make each of the clothes, Bai Qingshuang did not wear it again because he felt that he usually had a lot of things to do.
"Oops, no need, in exchange for the trouble!" Bai Qingshuang only hesitated for a moment before vetoing.
ran outside the kitchen and patted the flour on his body, took Wan Niang's hand and said inward to Bai Yao and Bai Qingfeng: "Mother, brother, then I'll go out first!" ”
"Go early and come back early, the Protector Mansion is not like ordinary people, although the second lady values you, but you also have to deal with it carefully, don't make trouble, you know?" Bai Yao's uneasy admonition.
Huguo Mansion, that is the most popular royal family in the capital, the most popular family in the world, even if it is also known as the House of Confucianism, the people of Baifu are rarely lucky enough to be able to go to the mansion! Although Shuang'er only went as a lowly businessman, everyone knew that the door of the Protector's Mansion was very high, and not everyone could enter it.
Although Bai Qingshuang is a soul from another world, she doesn't have much class concept in her heart, so whether she treats the people of the Bai family or meets Xu Jingxuan, the Nine Emperor Princes, in addition to worrying about offending people's heads, she really doesn't have much inferiority complex to influence her thoughts.
It's just that I don't know why, when she saw from the car window that the majestic door of the Protector Mansion was not comparable to the Bai family, her heart trembled inexplicably, her palms couldn't help sweating, and she was rarely nervous.
"Don't be afraid, Miss Bai, the people in our Guogong Mansion are actually very friendly!" Seeing that her face was slightly pale, the pothos immediately comforted her kindly.
"Huh!" Was she afraid? Will she be scared? In her previous life, she dealt with many official wives in the beauty salon, but the word "afraid" never appeared!
However, this place is really not as good as in her previous life, and she is really a little scared!
The carriage was completely still, and the pothos smiled in a friendly manner: "White girl, it's here, please get off!" ”
"Oh! Good! Subconsciously wiped the sweat on the palms of his hands on his shirt and pants, Bai Qingshuang got out of the car with the pothos, and the moment his feet hit the ground, he seemed to feel that the soles of his feet were soft.
Looking at the fence that was almost invisible at a glance, and looking at the two majestic stone lions in front of the gate, Bai Qingshuang felt that the feeling of being about to enter was completely different from the feeling of only watching outside.
"White girl, please come with me!"
The main entrance of a large family is generally not open casually if it is not to welcome people who are higher than one's status, or if there is a big event at home, even if the family enters and exits, they often enter and exit through the corner door.
As for Bai Qingshuang, a small and insignificant girl who looked like a child was naturally not even qualified to enter the corner gate, so the green pothos took her around in a big circle and entered the house through the side gate on the west side.
Regarding this point, Bai Qingshuang is not so arrogant and arrogant that she is unhappy, and she doesn't care which door she walks through without much concept of identity, as long as she can get in.
And after she came into the house, she once again sighed that the rich family was willful, she was about to get sore in her legs, and she still didn't reach the courtyard of the second lady Meng Guanxing.
And she was still taken around by the pothos so quickly that she couldn't even recognize the southeast and northwest, and because she was nervous, she was afraid of losing her way in the Protectorate Mansion and being embarrassed, she didn't even have time to see the good scenery along the way, so she just followed the pothos and chased after her.
Finally, the pace of pothos slowed down, and Bai Qingshuang had time to peek at the surrounding environment, green trees, osmanthus fragrant, carved fences and jade buildings, rockeries and forests, with the beauty and tranquility of the paths.
At the extension of a grey brick paved road large enough for several people to stand in parallel, a corner of the whitewashed and black-tiled building hidden in the shade of the greenery is revealed.
"White girl, the Bibo Courtyard where our young lady lives has arrived!" The green pothos, who was walking silently along the way, smiled at this time and said.
Bai Qingshuang took a long breath and sighed secretly: It's finally here! How big is this Protectorate Mansion! R1152
