Chapter 128: Apple Pie, Almond Tea

Huiwei looked at her for a while, turned sideways slightly, and asked, "Do you want to come in?" ”

"Absolutely." Su Miao nodded and replied, crossed the threshold with a golden sword, put the tray in his hand on the table under the window, and glanced back, "Why don't you close the door?" ”

He followed up and didn't close the door.

"If you don't get married, how can you be locked up in the house together." He replied as a matter of course.

Su Miao was stunned for a moment, covered her lips and grinned: "Obviously you have done everything, you really like to be particular about strange places." ”

"What did I do?" After retrieving the root of the ear, he retorted speechlessly, paused, and said, "This is your house, your mother and grandmother are here, they are already worried about our relationship, don't let them worry more." ”

Su Miao flattened her mouth and made a very obedient appearance: "Yes, yes, Mr. Antique!" ”

After hearing this, he walked up to her, stretched out his hands, silently pulled up her left and right cheeks, and pulled them hard to both sides.

Su Miao slapped his hand away with two hands, rubbed his face and said unhappily: "I hate it, it will be pulled into a big pie face!" ”

I couldn't help but laugh when I remembered it, but I couldn't help laughing.

Su Miao lifted the porcelain lid on the plate, a plate of golden color, slightly burnt, crispy and delicious, exuding a very rich and sweet pastry came into view, and after looking at it for a long time, she asked with a slight surprise:

"It's ...... Scone? ”

"It's baked, apple pie. Make the filling with apples and sugar, knead the flour, lard, sugar and water into an oily skin, then use flour and lard to make a puff pastry, wrap the puff pastry with the oily skin and roll it into a rectangle, fold it up and down and fold it in half. After the frustration, roll it out into a rectangle, fold it in half, do it four times, then flatten it and cut it into six parts. Spread the apple filling on top of the oily skin. Brush the egg wash on all sides, then cover with another sheet of grease and press it before placing it in the oven to cook. I've eaten it, it's delicious, you can taste it. Su Miao said with a smile, picked up a piece of apple pie and handed it to his mouth, emphasizing. I've washed my hands. ”

Aftertaste glanced at her, leaned down and opened his mouth to take it, took a bite and tasted it. Frowning:

"The taste of lard is a bit strong."

"Of course I know this, butter should have been used, but unfortunately Toyosu didn't have it, so I had to use lard instead. In fact, the color of the roast is not right. You will eat it. That's all I'm going to do, and besides, I'm not a professional pastry chef, so don't be too demanding. ”

"The filling is still good." Aftertaste changed his words and praised it with great interest.

"That's good." Su Miao became smiling again.

"It's just too sweet, I don't like sweet and greasy things." When he took the second bite, he couldn't help but say it.

Su Miao looked at him, looked at him silently, and after a while, said, "I've been doing this for a long time, you know." Folding the dough as a quilt is not an easy task. ”

“…… Eat it once in a while, the sweet one is also fresh and delicious. He looked at her. Laughing, the corners of his lips are a little stiff.

"If you think it's delicious." Su Miao smiled brightly again, and sat beside him with a smile, next to him.

Aftertaste sighed secretly.

The two sat side by side on the bed, the room was too narrow and there was no other place to sit, eating apple pie silently, Su Miao stared at him with a smile, he could only eat one piece after another, and in the end, he didn't know whether he was stared at by her for too long or ate too sweetly, and a few beads of sweat oozed from the corners of his forehead.

"Are you hot?" Su Miao asked, took out a handkerchief and came over to wipe his forehead intimately.

"Miao'er." Aftertaste couldn't help but call.

"Why?" She asked with a smile.

"It's kind of weird."

"Where?"

"The reason why you are still in the kitchen after the restaurant closes is only to develop new dishes, and the rest of the time you are too lazy to even ask me to cook tea for you, why do you suddenly bake pies and give them back to me?" Aftertaste asked suspiciously in a very unbelievable tone.

"Don't call me lazy!"

"Okay, you're so diligent." Aftertaste took a bite of the pie and swallowed it slowly.

"Xiao Weiwei," Su Miao smiled and leaned closer and asked, "Are you angry that I plan to leave Zhou Cheng behind?" ”

"Why should I be angry? This is your restaurant, you can do whatever you want, I'm just one to help you. "Aftertaste said seriously, it's too serious, he's angry.

Su Miao bit her lip and looked at him with a smile, and after a while, she suddenly hit his shoulder with her shoulder, and asked with a smile:

"Xiao Weiwei, are you jealous?"

"What? Jealous? "Where do you see that I look like I'm jealous, that I'm going to eat the vinegar of the man who almost cries when he kneels shamelessly to a woman for some unknown purpose?" Don't be funny! He took a big bite of apple pie.

Su Miao blinked her eyes twice, leaned over again, and gently hit his shoulder with her shoulder:

"You admit to being jealous, I'll make you mulberry jam tart tomorrow."

Aftertaste looked at her, and after a while, Yan said: "A plate of apple pie is enough, I don't like mulberries at all, my father's horse loves mulberries." ”

“…… The taste of that horse is really special. Xiao Weiwei, do you guess why Zhou Cheng suddenly came to the door and begged me to let him join Su Ji? ”

"How do I know, it may be because he wants to bite Tong Ran back, or it may be because he wants to get you back, anyway, he and your aunt who was abducted by him are not married, in short, there must be some conspiracy."

"That's right, so I'm going to keep him under my nose and see what he wants." Su Miao clapped her hand, "I'm glad you understand." ”

"Wouldn't it be better to get him out of your eyes." Aftertaste said word by word.

"He's like a cockroach that can't be beaten and drills everywhere, either let him succeed or let him fail, or he'll be entangled. I asked people to inquire, since he was driven away by Tong Ran, Qian Ai and his son have been sent by him to Qian Ai's mother's house, he has been to almost all the restaurants in Fengzhou, but they have all been rejected, and it seems that no restaurant will dare to take him in if he was driven away by Tong Ran. ”

"It's natural, he knows so much. If other restaurants hire him again, it will be tantamount to suing them that they are interested in the menu and secrets of Yipinlou, which is the meaning of openly arguing with Yipinlou. The bigger the restaurant, the more miserable he is when he is fired. Unless they set up their own doors or are absorbed by powerful competitors of the former owner, no one in the general area dares to hire. ”

"I think Tong Ran fired him too simply." Su Miao said softly.

Aftertaste was stunned, looking at her, Su Miao also looked at him.

"It's a possibility." After a while, Aftertaste took a bite of the pie and said.

"What I hate most is that others will calculate me, if anyone dares to calculate me. I'm sure he'll never dare to count me again. Su Miao said loudly, paused, and continued. Of course, it's also possible that I'm guessing, if he just wants to bite Tong Ran, then wait until he finishes biting. ”

"You're so bad." Aftertaste was silent for a moment and commented briefly in three words.

Su Miao laughed. There was a pause. Hit him on the shoulder again, and asked in a low voice with a grin:

"Actually, you're jealous, aren't you?"

"yes." He replied with two words dryly.

He actually admitted it happily, Su Miao was stunned, looked at his side face in surprise, and after a while, smiled:

"I'll make mulberry jam tart tomorrow!"

"No need." Aftertaste replied with a stiff face.

"Second sister!" Su Yan found the door, poked his head in through the open door, and asked unhappily. "Why are you in this house?"

"Because we have something to talk about, of course."

Su Yan sniffed: "What smell?" It's so sweet! "I sniffed and followed the smell and stepped in, and saw the apple pie on the table. His eyes lit up, and his hand reached over, but before his fingertips touched the plate, Aftertaste had already picked up the lid to cover the plate, his movements were too sudden, almost crushing Su Yan's fingertips, Su Yan hurriedly retracted his hand, glared at him, and asked unhappily: "What are you doing?" ”

"This is what your second sister did for me, not for you." Aftertaste said without blushing at all.

"Stingy ghost, what's wrong with me eating a piece, anyway, there are so many, are you so stingy that you can be regarded as someone's second brother-in-law?" Su Yan glared at him angrily and asked.

"You've never treated me as a second brother-in-law. Besides, you are a kid, you are not young anymore, don't always say 'other people', if you continue like this, as your second brother-in-law, I am really worried about your future and marriage. Aftertaste put on a look of earnest teaching, and said slowly.

"You have to take care of it! I'm going to say everyone's family! Su Yan yelled at him unhappily.

Su Miao sighed speechlessly, stroked her forehead, and asked, "Yan'er, you should go to bed at this hour, you haven't finished your homework yet?" ”

"It's done, I just told my mother, my mother asked me to tell you, I have a few classmates who want to come to play and write homework together."

"Classmates? Want to play? Su Miao was taken aback and stunned, "Is it a friend who studied with you?" Male or female? ”

"Of course it's a man, how can there be a female student in the official school."

Su Miao's heart was excited, excited and relieved, took his hands, and said happily:

"Great, smoke, you've finally made friends!"

"I already have friends, second sister, why are you making such a fuss!" Su Yan's self-esteem was frustrated, she shook off her hand, said unhappily, paused, and asked, "Can you let them come?" ”

"Of course, let's all come and play, I'll be ready to eat for you to entertain them." Su Miao said with a smile.

Su Yan nodded: "Then I will make an appointment with them tomorrow." Second sister, I'll go back to sleep, you'd better not stay in this house. As he spoke, he glanced at the aftertaste wary and hostile, twisted his head, and went out.

"Xiaoweiwei, did you hear it, Yan'er said that she wanted to invite a friend to play at home!" Su Miao patted her thighs and said excitedly.

"What's there to be happy about, it's ordinary."

"It's not ordinary.,Yan'er was often bullied by neighbor children when he was a child.,When he entered the school, he was bullied by his classmates.,Never made friends.,But he often interacts with girls.,So he finally grew up and had his own same-sex friends.。 What kind of child will it be? Hopefully he's not making bad friends. ”

"Things gather like people in groups, you still don't have too much hope." The aftertaste said coolly.

"What do you think of my brother?" Su Miao squinted at him and asked with a stiff face.

"Nope." Aftertaste was shocked to find that he had taken off his mouth, put down the pie that had been brought to his mouth to open his mouth to bite, looked at her, and replied seriously.

At dawn, the sound of roosters crowing in the distance, echoing the barking of dogs, and the light of daylight penetrated through the blue curtain.

Su Miao rarely got up earlier than Su Chan, because she had to prepare the sauce for this week's main dish in advance, tiptoed to get dressed and went out, only to open the side door, but when she walked into the narrow alley formed by the wall of the restaurant and the house, she found that the side door had been opened, Lin Yan stood at the door with a big broom in her hand, looking into the distance, there seemed to be a sobbing sound, Su Miao was slightly stunned.

"Xiao Linzi?" After a moment, she called.

Lin Yan's back stiffened, and she hurriedly wiped her face with the back of her hand, took a deep breath, turned around, and smiled, but her eyes were swollen into two peaches.

"You're up so early." Su Miao finally ignored her eyes and said with a smile.

"Ah, I squinted for a while and couldn't sleep, before leaving the pavilion, I was raised in my mother's house after leaving the pavilion, and this is the first time I stayed alone in a strange place, and there are many discomforts." She lowered her eyes, wiped her forehead, said with a sneer, paused, raised her head again, and smiled innocently, "I can't sleep, so I come out to find something to do, and I just saw a broom and wanted to help sweep the floor." By the way, I've made a list of snacks, would you like to take a look? ”

Su Miao nodded and said with a smile, "I'll wait for you in the kitchen." ”

Lin Yan responded.

Su Miao unlocked the big lock on the back door of the restaurant, entered the kitchen, and made a bowl of almond tea before preparing the sauce. Sweet almonds and white rice soaked for six hours are ground with water to form almond rice milk, strained in a silk bag, longan and mashed rock sugar are added, and simmered over low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. I drank it hot and sweet in the morning, and the tired sleepiness disappeared, and the whole person was refreshed.

Lin Yan came in, handed her a list of dim sum, and then waited anxiously for her decision.

Su Miao glanced at the dim sum list, was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "How did you write out all the methods?" ”

"I think it's easier to write down the recipes so that you can judge whether they're suitable to sell them as commodities." Lin Yan looked at her and said honestly.

"Aren't you afraid that this recipe will be plagiarized, and you won't be needed when the time comes?"

"Huh?" Lin Yan was stunned, her eyes widened, she hadn't thought about this kind of question at all, she stayed for a while, and asked, "Do you want to ...... Fire me? ”

Su Miao laughed out loud, this person was really simple, read the dim sum list with a smile, and said to the nervous Lin Yan:

"That's all, go back and hand over the materials to my uncle, who will take care of the purchases. From today onwards, that position is yours. She pointed to a cooking area in the corner and asked, "Would you like to drink almond tea?" He poured a bowl of almond tea and handed it to her.

Lin Yan hadn't reacted from Su Miao's words, she took it in a daze, took a sip of it, and a stream of sweetness rushed over, quickly spreading and spreading between her lips and teeth, silky and delicate, and the aroma was intoxicating, she couldn't help but squint her eyes:

"Well, it's delicious!" (To be continued......)
