"Shiro, you can make some more glutinous rice dumplings, it's so delicious! I promise not to twist your ears in the future! Xiao Wuhua was pestering Xiao Yao again.

"Wuhua, it's made of sugar, how can you say it, you don't know how expensive sugar is, you know how much sugar I've used these days." Xiao Yao said helplessly, the sugar made by Zu Yuan was almost eaten up by this snacker.

"Then you go to Boss Zu to ask for more, I know he listens to you, tomorrow is Miaomiao's birthday, I want her to taste glutinous rice balls too." Xiao Wuhua continued to coquettishly.

"Who is Miaomiao?" Xiao Yao asked.

"You don't even know Miaomiao? Chen Guoda writer, Xu Miao, the granddaughter of Xu Ling, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is a talented woman, she is my best and best sister! Xiao Wuhua looked a little proud.

"I don't know, I've only been in Jinling for a month, okay, by the way, is this talented girl beautiful?" Xiao Yao blinked.

"Hmph, you stinky pervert, I know you have bad intentions! You big pervert! Xiao Wuhua broke out instantly, and twisted as soon as he grabbed Xiao Yao's ear.

"Oops! Hurt! Hurt! I just asked in passing, you know that what I make must have the beauty of a sinking fish and a goose like you in Wuhua to be worthy! If it's an ugly bastard, I won't make it for her! Xiao Yao jumped up in pain.

"Hmph, the oil tone is smooth, but ah, of course Miaomiao is like me, a gentle and considerate beauty!" Xiao Wuhua let go of Xiao Yao's ears with satisfaction.

"Since it's Wuhua's best sister, of course I have to pay attention to it, don't make glutinous rice balls on people's birthdays, let's make a cake!" Xiao Yao rubbed his red ears and smiled.

The cake is easy to make, separate the egg whites from the yolks, stir constantly, add flour, sugar, milk and canola oil during the mixing process, and finally make a paste and it is ready to bake.

When the golden and fluffy, thick egg-scented cake was taken out of the temporary oven, Xiao Wuhua couldn't help swallowing: "It's so fragrant, this is the cake?" ”

After speaking, he was about to reach out and taste it, but Xiao Yao grabbed the jade hand for a long time and said, "It's not finished yet, you still have to apply a layer of cream on it!" ”

Homemade cream is actually stirred with egg whites, salt, sugar, and milk are added in the process, and finally stirred into a pure white paste.

。。。。。。

The next day, Xiao Wuhua, Xiao Shilian and Xiao Yao, who were dressed in gorgeous new clothes, were personally led by Xiao Moke and came to the Xu Mansion.

"Wow, why such a big scene! Isn't it just a girl's birthday, inviting so many people? Xiao Yao seemed to be a person who had never seen the world, with a curious face, and kept looking left and right.

"Haha, Miaomiao's birthday is just one of them, and the other is that today is also the day when Miaomiao Biwen recruits relatives! Of course, those sons of the family flocked here! Xiao Wuhua couldn't help but smile when she saw Xiao Yao's bun-like expression.

"Biwen recruits relatives? Such a child's play? Xiao Yao was really shocked, Xiao Wuhua said that Xu Miao is a big beauty, in case tonight is an ugly monster who wins.

"Miaomiao was born in a famous family, and the people who are courting relatives are about to break the threshold, Lord Xu doesn't want to offend these wealthy nobles, so he thought of this method, if you want to marry Miaomiao, you have to compare your talent with Miaomiao, but I don't think they have any hope, Miaomiao is the number one talented woman in our Chen country, who can compare to her!" Xiao Wuhua said proudly.

"Sure enough, it's my fair lady, good gentleman!" Xiao Yao couldn't help but say.

"Yo, you're quite literate, don't you often say that you are extremely smart and incomparable? Want to try it too? Xiao Wuhua's eyes were full of murder.

"Hehe, I'm not bragging, I don't know a word, I can't hold a brush, how dare you, how dare you." Xiao Yao said decisively to protect himself and beg for mercy.

"Even if you know each other, just your crooked handwriting, Miao Miao can't look down on you!" Xiao Wuhua put down the hand that was about to twist his ears.

"Of course, of course, how can a talented woman look down on a rough person like me. Hey, you said that the people who asked for marriage in Xu Mansion have all broken through the threshold, why haven't you seen anyone come to Xiao Mansion to propose marriage? Xiao Yao asked deliberately.

"You! You... Hmph, ignore you, Dad, I'll go find Miaomiao myself and let her taste this cake! Bad pervert, I look good with you when I go back, I won't let you go if you don't make cakes for me every day! Xiao Wuhua looked very cute when she was angry, and after speaking, she picked up the food box and left.

"Alas, it seems that Maihua has also grown up, Shiro, you reminded me, and it's time to help her set up a family affair." Xiao Moke looked at Xiao Yao with a little meaning and said.

Xiao Yao's face turned red, and he immediately said: "It's all up to the righteous father!" ”

"Haha, let's go! Shiro, my father-in-law will take you in to meet these Jinling talents! After speaking, Xiao Moke took Xiao Yao and Xiao Shilian, who had been silent, into the Xu Mansion.

When I came to the banquet hall, there was already a large group of talented people from the family at the reception room, showing off and boasting in various ways.

"This is Wang Youjun's notebook, specially given to Miss Xu as a birthday gift!"

"I specially sent this famous painting of the Han Dynasty, just asking Miss Xu to see it!"

"This is a refined palace fan, and there is a poem I wrote on it, I hope Miss Xu can like it!"

。。。。。。

"This Miss Xu is really a starry moon. You see, the gifts given by these people are not simple! Xiao Yao sighed when he saw the pile of gifts like a hill.

"Didn't you say, my fair lady and gentleman, Miss Xu is talented and beautiful, of course everyone wants to kiss Fangze!" Xiao Shilian rarely said a word in front of Xiao Yao.

"Oh, does the eldest brother want to compete tonight?" Xiao Yao saw Xiao Shilian's eager expression and asked.

"Why not! In terms of talent and martial arts, I can't compare to these sons of the family! Xiao Shilian said quite confidently.

"Yes! Be! Shiro wishes the eldest brother a beautiful home tonight! Xiao Yao said flatteringly.

At this time, a young man of the same age as Xiao Yao, with a pale face and vain steps, looked like he was overly drunk, and came over and saluted and said, "I've seen General Xiao, Xiao Gongzi!" Shiro, you're here too? ”

He is Chen Shuling's cousin, the fifth son of the first emperor Chen Qian, Chen Boxi, the king of Xin'an County, and Chen Shuling's confidant.

When Chen Shuling was still in Jinling, he introduced Xiao Yao and them to Chen Bowei, and now that Chen Shuling has returned to Jiangzhou, Chen Bowei has become his spokesperson in Jinling, so after seeing Xiao Yao, he immediately came over to say hello.

"I've seen Your Excellency the King of the County!" The three of them saluted back.

"Haha, tonight Xu Shangshu chooses his son-in-law with a text, Xiao Gongzi and Shilang, you also come to join in the fun?" When Chen Boxi saw Xiao Shilian dressed so gorgeously, he knew that he also wanted to participate in the competition tonight.

"Your Excellency the King of the County smiled, Miss Xu is everyone's best girl, a contemporary beauty, of course, everyone wants to hug the beauty, but tonight there is a big brother to participate, I won't make a fool of myself, I just came to see the big scene!" Xiao Yao replied.

Chen Bo Yi smiled and said: "Shilang is really good at talking, but seeing this Xiao Dagongzi's confident expression, I can't hit you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also come tonight, and he will also bring Master Baoliang, the abbot of Guangzhai Temple, who is as famous as Xu Shangshu!" ”
