Chapter 119: Prelude to Parting
"Huh, really? Then I'll try ...... too."
Looking at Hong'er's expression, Ye Xiaoyu took one herself and took a bite.
The taste is not bad, but it is still a little worse than the oven baked in the previous life, but it is less crispy and more fluffy, which is actually good, at least not easy to fire.
I ate one by myself and gave the remaining two to Hong'er as a snack, just sat down Ye Xiaoyu suddenly remembered something and ran out again, Hong'er was used to Ye Xiaoyu's style of acting in a hurry, so she didn't ask much.
The reason why he ran out was because Ye Xiaoyu suddenly thought that although making a single cake was delicious, it seemed to be missing something, and if you added some candied fruit or something on it, it would be perfect. When he was in the village just now, Ye Xiaoyu seemed to have seen some dried fruits such as red dates on the counter of the grocery store that sold daily necessities.
I spent two pennies to buy a bag of sun-dried red dates, and I tasted it myself just now, and this red date is not bad, quite sweet. I went to the shop next to me and bought a large stack of oiled paper, stood on the road in the village and thought about it for a while, and after making sure that all the materials had been purchased, Ye Xiaoyu was relieved to carry the bag back to Lujiazhuang.
Time flies, running around like this, and an afternoon passes. When I walked to the central garden, it was a little dark.
"Xiaoyu ......"
Ye Xiaoyu was walking, and Ling Yu's voice came from behind, looking at him like that, he should have come from Beiyuan just now.
"What a coincidence......"
Ling Yu stepped forward, looked at Ye Xiaoyu and said with a smile.
"Yes, has Ling Gongzi finished eating?"
Ye Xiaoyu also responded with a smile, she didn't see Lu Qian in Nanyuan in the afternoon, and now she met Ling Yu here again, probably eating together in Jiang Ping's house in Beiyuan.
"Well, I just ate with Uncle Lu and them in Beiyuan. What about Xiaoyu? ”
Ling Yu looked at Ye Xiaoyu and asked casually.
"I'm going back to eat."
Ye Xiaoyu pulled a smile and said.
Ling Yu seemed to have something to say, but he didn't know what to say, and where to speak, the two of them stood there, falling silent.
"Uh......"
"I ......"
Both spoke at the same time.
"You speak first."
Ye Xiaoyu said with a smile, she didn't have anything to say to Ling Yu, she just wanted to tell him, "I'll go back to eat first."
"Actually, it's nothing, I'll go home tomorrow afternoon, with Mr. Qianyi."
Ling Yu opened his mouth and said, for some reason, he always felt a little awkward today. Maybe it's because I'm leaving Lujiazhuang tomorrow.
"Have a good trip, Lu Qian will send you off, needless to say, Qinglang and I will also send you."
It turned out that it was for this matter, Ye Xiaoyu thought that it was something, Ling Yu was going to leave tomorrow afternoon, and Mr. Qianyi had already mentioned it to her when class ended in the morning, so Ye Xiaoyu was so busy running around all afternoon.
"Sunny? I haven't talked to him yet, but it's great that you can come along. ”
Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile. But his expression was clearly asking Ye Xiaoyu when he became so familiar with Qinglang.
Ye Xiaoyu was a little annoyed, she just pulled Qinglang in to avoid suspicion, how did she know if Qinglang would send Ling Yu tomorrow, that man with facial paralysis, she had no intersection with him at all, let alone knew each other.
"What Mr. Qianyi said when class ended today, it just so happened that Qinglang and I were still in the school."
Ye Xiaoyu explained.
Then the two stood and chatted casually, and since it was not early, Ye Xiaoyu said goodbye to Ling Yu and returned to Nanyuan.
After eating dinner with Hong'er and putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Ye Xiaoyu finally had time to sit down and make handkerchiefs. Today all day, the materials for making cakes in the morning and in the afternoon are all outside, and the handkerchief is not even touched, but fortunately Hong'er is doing it silently, otherwise the progress will definitely fall.
The cake is fresh, and after the ingredients are ready, Ye Xiaoyu plans to get up early tomorrow to make it, anyway, Mr. Qianyi and Ling Yu also left after eating lunch, according to the speed of making cakes in the afternoon, it will definitely be in time.
So she doesn't have to worry about the cake at night, just put all her mind on making a handkerchief. Although she was very tired from running around during the day, Ye Xiaoyu was still full of energy, because in her eyes, these were not handkerchiefs, but silver with white flowers.
Because he had been silently thinking that he would get up early tomorrow before going to bed, the next day, the biological clock in Ye Xiaoyu's body did not live up to his expectations, and he woke up before dawn. Thinking about making cakes, I didn't dare to lie in bed, and as soon as I woke up, I quickly crawled out of the bed.
After getting dressed and washing up briefly, the simple kitchen in the yard is located in the hot water room, and the light is not very good, Ye Xiaoyu decided to make the raw materials in the house and put them in a bowl first, and then take them outside to steam.
Wash the red dates, cut them into small pieces with a knife, and carefully add them to the small cake that has not yet taken shape, Ye Xiaoyu can't make a too complex pattern, so she uses red dates to put a small heart shape on it, anyway, they don't know the meaning of this pattern in this time and space, just look good. Taking into account the taste and type, Ye Xiaoyu did not add red dates to all the small cakes, but chose half of them, and the remaining half was still made into the original flavor.
There are only four bowls, and there is also a fire in the stove, Ye Xiaoyu pours the stirred batter into the bowl here, and then runs to add firewood; After taking out the steamed cake here, start stirring again; One morning, running in and out like this, I was very busy.
From the dawn to the sun, Ye Xiaoyu finally made all the small cakes, counted them, and there were a total of 6 pots and 24 pieces.
Cut the oil paper into a good-looking shape, Ye Xiaoyu sat at the table and wrapped the small cakes one by one in oil paper, she was not boxy as usual, but learned from the cake shop in her previous life, folded it into gift packaging, and after wrapping it, she used oil paper to tie a beautiful knot on it by the way, like a flower, very beautiful.
Hong'er also got up, since following Ye Xiaoyu, her schedule has changed a lot, no longer getting up early every morning to work like before, but can sleep casually. Seeing Ye Xiaoyu working alone at the table, Hong'er took a closer look and found that she didn't know how to pack at all, so she said hello to Ye Xiaoyu and went out to wash clothes.
Although Ye Xiaoyu was in the house in her previous life, she was still very picky about the taste of eating, and she liked sweets very much, especially all kinds of fluffy small cakes with a thick cream flavor, but the dessert shop sold them either too high or not very good. So, she took advantage of her spare time to sign up for a class, from making all kinds of desserts to packaging, she probably studied for more than a year, and that time should be her happiest time, learning to do what she likes, and she can eat desserts made by herself when she goes home every day. However, it didn't take long for her to go to another city because of the company's job adjustment, and later, she met Chen Hao there, and then, her nightmare began.
After all, after learning, Ye Xiaoyu's techniques are still very skillful, and they will all be wrapped in a while. Looking at the rows of small cakes on the table, Ye Xiaoyu suddenly felt that if she had money in the future, it would be good to open a dessert shop here.
