Wen Ziqi, who was racking his brains and couldn't figure out what the reason was, heard this, and said peacefully: "Yes, it's just to keep the fragrance and delicate." ”

Although he was calm and natural on his face, he secretly called luck in his heart. If it weren't for the Cao family coming at this time, it is estimated that this embarrassing thing would have been unavoidable.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to Cao Shi, who was walking towards the money, and asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper, you heard what I just said, but what's wrong." ”

Cao Shi held the food plate in his hand and said with a smile: "The slave family has only a female stream involved in this, and I didn't expect that the adults would also study it." ”

Being praised by her like this, Wen Ziqi suddenly felt that his face was bright, and he said proudly: "The shopkeeper's fallacy is praised, and the research can't be talked about, it's just that when I was young, I ate more and knew how to do it." ”

Cao, who was arranging the food, frowned when he heard him say that he often ate when he was young, and after a little thought, he asked: "The slave family is a rural village woman, how can it compare to the craftsmanship of the chef of the Shanggongzi's family." ”

Ziqi, who was complacent, was surprised when he heard Cao's words, looked at her in disbelief, shook his head and said, "I didn't say that the cook made it for me to eat, what does the shopkeeper mean by this!" ”

Cao Shi smiled faintly and explained: "The son must have been born into a rich and noble family, and the old woman naturally won't be able to cook in person, so the cook will be left." ”

Listening to her analysis, it made sense, and the three of them didn't refute it, so they each held their own spoons, ready to savor them.

Looking at the five side dishes on the table, although it is not a delicacy, it is extraordinarily exquisite. Nangong Feifei said with a smile: "Brother Wen, you have earned it today with beautiful women." ”

It was a joke, but it made Cao, who was about to turn around and leave, stop, and turned his head to look at Wen Ziqi with a surprised expression.

Seeing that she was going and coming back as if she had something on her mind, Qin Keqing, who was sitting opposite, opened his mouth and asked, "Shopkeeper, is there anything else to do?" ”

Cao Shi smiled shyly and said: "I just want to ask if the dishes are appetizing, there are no delicacies in this poor and remote place, and I have suffered a few times." ”

It stands to reason that the shopkeeper's inquiry about whether the dishes are to the customer's liking is not surprising at all. It's just that when she said this, although she had a smile on her face, she didn't show any happiness at all, but a picture of a heavy heart.

Looking at his appearance, Qin Keqing asked as if puzzled: "Just now I saw that you came in with a smile on your face, why did you suddenly have a dark face as if you were troubled, I'm afraid there is something bothering about this!" ”

Cao's face, who was originally twisted together when he heard Qin Keqing's question, changed instantly, and said with a smile: "Back to the adult's words, the folk girl has nothing to worry about, but she was just surprised when she heard the prince say the mystery of mung bean cake." ”

"Surprised?" Nangong Feifei held a double chopstick, and asked with a puzzled smile, "Why are you surprised?" Could it be that your method is not a secret? ”

Hearing her say this, Cao Shi hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "What's the mystery of a small mung bean cake, it's just that the folk girl is good at fiddling with these when she is fine, and when she heard what the son said, she wanted to ask for advice, I don't know..."

The words were not finished, but the meaning was already obvious, the three people present were all smart and clever people, and they couldn't hear that Cao's words were just to let Wen Ziqi continue. As for whether it is sincere or not, it is unknown.

"Oh?" Qin Keqing raised his eyes and glanced at the surprised Wen Ziqi, and quipped: "Did you hear it, Shopkeeper Cao wants to apprentice, why don't you hurry up and teach him?" ”

Wen Ziqi looked embarrassed, he would teach people what mung bean cakes to make, and what Shicai said was all based on his childhood memories. I really don't have that ability to teach, but if I say that I can't do it now, it's a little unbelievable.

Thinking of this, his eyebrows tightened, and he tried to recall everything he saw in his childhood, but after all, there were always some places that were extremely blurry after too long, so he could only sigh and say honestly: "Shopkeeper Cao, it's not that I don't want to say it, but it's true that after many years, many memories of my childhood can't be completely restored. ”

I thought that when Cao Shi heard this, he might give up, but on the contrary, I saw her say excitedly: "Gongzi just said, the methods you described are all seen when you were a child?" ”

Wen Ziqi did not answer, but stared at her vigilantly, and there was no malice in those hot eyes, but full of joy.

What made her so enthusiastic about making pastries, Wen Ziqi didn't know. However, seeing that he is so serious, he is not good at deliberately making things difficult.

He sighed lightly and said, "Just now I said that the mung beans should be steamed in the pot for a stick of incense, and during this time, you can make a little trapping, and it seems to be a little raisin in my memory." Then take out the cooked beans and press them into a puree, of course, the more delicate the better. Speaking of this, I saw him pause in his words, and looked at Cao Shi as if he was asking.

Cao, who was listening attentively, suddenly found that he had stopped, so he asked with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong with Childe?" ”

Seeing that she didn't have any doubts, Wen Ziqi chuckled lightly, and then said: "After the beans are pressed into a fine puree, you can start the pot and boil the oil, there is a key point in this place, you must keep it on low heat." ”

Speaking of this, Wen Ziqi found that he seemed to remember this, and he couldn't remember anything after that, so he scratched his head in embarrassment, wanting to explain that he only remembered this.

I was thinking about how to explain it so that I didn't look so embarrassed, when Cao's voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Do you wait until the oil is hot, put in the pressed bean paste and stir-fry?" ”

After Cao's mention of this, he instantly remembered that this was the case, so he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, that's it!" ”

Seeing that what he said was right, Cao Shi said happily: "What about the son?" Do you need to add anything after stir-frying? ”

He didn't know what to add, but he remembered that the cook would add some white powder to it, and as for what it was, he didn't know when he was young, but in his current judgment, it was sugar that should have been added at that time.

Thinking of this, he said, "Add sugar!" ”

seemed to be anxious to know how the follow-up was made, and before his words could land, Cao Shi hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else to do then?" ”

Looking at the Cao family who was so anxious, Qin Keqing and Nangong Feifei were surprised, it stands to reason that if you really ask for advice, it shouldn't be this attitude, but looking at her is more like verification.

Wen Ziqi, who had been questioned by the Cao family, seemed to find that this matter was a little strange, so he retreated slightly, looked her up and down, and asked after a long time: "Shopkeeper, why don't I think you don't look like you're asking for advice?" The words were cold, without the slightest kind of warm wind just now.

Cao Shi, who was on the rise, was stunned when he heard this, and a cold sweat broke out on his spine, and then he said with a dry laugh: "The son is too worried, and the people have just heard that the son is willing to give advice, so it is inevitable that she will be a little excited." caused a misunderstanding to the son, and the folk girl is here to make amends to you. He knelt down on his knees as he spoke.

The three people present were all stunned, although they were a little uncomfortable with her words and deeds just now, but they were not to the point of kneeling down to make amends.

Wen Ziqi hurriedly got up, stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper Cao, this can't be helped." As soon as his arms were forced, he slowly helped Cao Shi, who was kneeling on the ground, up.

Before he got up, he saw Cao's Dan's lips slightly opened, and he said in an almost silent voice: "Prince Qiqi." ”

There were only four words, but Wen Ziqi was like an electric shock, and his hands couldn't help but stop. Immediately, he helped Cao up as usual.

Although it was only a short moment, Cao Shi seemed to have felt it, and suddenly his eyes were full of tears and sobbing.

Qin Keqing and Nangong Feifei, who were blocked by Wen Ziqi's body, didn't know what was happening, but they saw that the Cao family who stood up was already full of tears.

The two of them were stunned, and Qin Keqing asked with a little confusion: "Shopkeeper Cao, what do you mean by this?" ”

Cao Shi stretched out his hand to wipe his tears, and replied with a very respectful attitude: "If you go back to your lordship, the folk girl is crying with joy!" There is no point in it. ”

"Tears of joy?" Nangong Feifei turned her head and asked with a smile: "Is it because of the pastry making method that Brother Wen just said?" ”

Cao Shi nodded frequently, looked at Wen Ziqi like a treasure, and said: "God has the virtue of a good life, and it is the happiest day for my Cao family to meet this son today." ”

The two girls are people with a certain status, and they have heard a lot of compliments on weekdays, but it is the first time like Cao's.

After looking at each other and smiling, Nangong Feifei shook her head and said: "Shopkeeper Cao, what you said is quite level, you can see that my Brother Wen is a little cramped and uneasy!" ”

She was originally standing behind Wen Ziqi, and she couldn't see what Wen Ziqi's expression was at this time, and when she heard Nangong Feifei say this, she was immediately shocked and said: "The little one should be damned, let the son be in danger, and the little one will retreat." After saying that, he really bowed down and withdrew.

Looking at the Cao family, who was judging the two of them before and after, Nangong Feifei's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her eyes said deeply: "Brother Wen, I didn't expect you to have this hand." ”

"Huh?" Wen Ziqi replied casually, as if he didn't notice what Nangong Feifei asked him.

Seeing his unyielding appearance, a meaningful smile suddenly appeared on Qin Keqing's lips, and he said to Nangong Feifei: "Feifei, what do you think of this place?" ”

Nangong Feifei's expression was stunned, and then she sighed and said: "Of course the place is a good place, it is comfortable to live in, the scenery is also good, and the key food has a different flavor." But it's not good at all! ”

"Oh?" Qin Keqing glanced at her and asked in a leisurely tone, "What's not good?" ”

seemed to know that Qin Keqing must have this question, and before her words landed, Nangong Feifei said: "It's just that there is too much time, and there is no fun to live, if you can enjoy the moon under the tree, you will have no regrets." ”

Hearing her say this, Qin Keqing frowned, and said with a smile: "I think so too, otherwise the two of us won't go back, what do you think?" ”

Although the words were said to Nangong Feifei, the corner of his eyes glanced at Wen Ziqi, who was still in a daze, intentionally or unintentionally
