Chapter Eighty-Four: Homemade Sorbet
Under Shan Zhuokun's careful arrangement, the team members were soon divided into two different teams according to their respective appearances: the strength team and the idol team. And according to the essence of their training, they devoted themselves to the intense sports.
At the same time, the other household servants were also curiously attracted by this burst of shouts that resounded in the sky, and came to watch the battle, and the originally extremely quiet mansion was instantly set off by layers of heat.
Yu Chi Baolin slipped away on the grounds of urgency, and in order to save face, he decided not to go to the front yard for the time being. Instead, he took a detour back to the small courtyard where he lived.
At this moment, he was lying flat on the wide carved bed, and he comfortably arranged himself into a 'big' character. However, it is strange to say that he originally wanted to go to his dream to pay homage to Zhou Gong sooner, but he couldn't sleep at all, so he could only close his eyes and pretend to sleep.
"Major General, the courtyard in front of you is extremely lively, why don't we go and have a look?"
Just when Yu Chi Baolin was half asleep and half awake, the personal maid Cui'er rushed in and made an urgent proposal.
Yu Chi Baolin's dream was completely disturbed, and resentment suddenly arose in his heart. It can be seen that Cui'er is so happy, but she really can't bear to be punished. So he sat up and said:
"Cui'er, otherwise, you can go to the front for me first. If there's anything fun, just come back and report it at any time. ”
Cui'er answered, and hurriedly walked out of the house under the gaze of Yu Chi Baolin.
Hmph, Shangxian, no matter how smart you are, you still have a tender way to fight with this general. General Ben is just waiting here to see what else you can do.
After making up his mind, he lay down on the bed again, put his left leg on his right leg freely, and hummed a little song happily.
"Everyone should be tired after practicing for a long time, right? Take a break. ”
In the courtyard, the sweaty family members were attracted by this sudden sound and turned to look. I saw Chunxue and Xia He come to them with a huge laundry basin, which was filled with a basin full of ice.
"Sir, this is what we just took out of the ice cellar." After putting the basin on the ground, Chunxue said to Shan Zhuokun with a smile, "Although I have walked this way, this ice is still solid." ”
"Okay, you've worked hard."
Shan Zhuokun smiled and nodded to Chunxue and Xia He, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, he quickly came to the laundry tub, took out a small white paper bag from his sleeve, and carefully sprinkled the white powder on the ice. Then, he crouched down and smeared them on the ice one by one with his hands.
"Everyone trained very hard just now, in order to show my appreciation, my brother invites you to eat something delicious." Shan Zhuokun got up and greeted the family who looked at him suspiciously.
Delicious?
The family looked at each other with a smile, what is so delicious about this ice? It's just the usual warm sake ingredients. Could it be that it is because it has just been ignited by the golden finger of the immortals, so it has become delicious?
However, even if they were curious, they still did not dare to act rashly. One by one, they just stood there with their necks crossed, looking like they wanted to see the Western scenery.
"Hey, it seems that you old men are really cowardly, not as bold as a little girl." Shan Zhuokun shook his head helplessly, "Xia He, you come." ”
Chunxue heard that Mr. asked Xia He to try, and hurriedly explained:
"Sir, Xia He's stomach has always been bad, and this ice is too cold, so it's not good if you get sick."
She thought that Shan Zhuokun would take back his life after listening to her words, but he still said to Xia He:
"Xia He, what do you say?"
"Mr. wants Xia He to try, then Xia He will do what Mr. said." Xia He hesitated for a moment and replied hesitantly.
With that, she slowly squatted down, carefully picked up a very small piece of ice ballast, and slowly put it in her mouth.
Everyone looked at Xia He intently, and they were uneasy in their hearts. In case, Xia He really got sick because of eating ice, it would really be a sin.
The answer is the exact opposite.
"Sweet."
Xia He's eyes widened with excitement at first, and then he put a larger piece of ice in his mouth.
When the family members heard Xia He say this, they could no longer control the curiosity in their hearts. They all stepped forward and surrounded the basin in the middle, scrambling to put their hands inside and put the ice in their mouths.
And the people around who watched the excitement didn't contribute, so although they were also very curious about the ice, they could only stand aside and watch with envy.
"This ice is so sweet and crunchy, and it's delicious!"
Everyone praised loudly while eating, as if they were not eating just ordinary food, but a delicacy at the feast of the gods.
When Cui'er saw this scene, she couldn't help but salivate. However, because of his identity, he could only endure it forcibly. Seeing that there was not much ice left in this basin, she hurriedly turned around and went to deliver a letter to Yu Chi Baolin.
Shan Zhuokun was also extremely happy when he heard this praise, even if he smiled like a flower, he couldn't close his mouth at all.
"Sir, our meals are either salty or sour, why is this ice so sweet?" After eating for a long time, Xia He suddenly seemed to remember something, got up and asked Shan Zhuokun beside him.
"Of course, just now, Ben Shangxian sprinkled two packets of saccharin in this ice." Shan Zhuokun replied with a smile, "More than Starbucks coffee." But then again, thanks to my brother's previous talk about the art of making homemade sorbet, this was able to relieve my homesickness. ”
"Starbucks?" Chunxue interjected curiously, "Where is that?" ”
The name sounds strange, as if it were the location of the Huns. But it is said that those people are extremely rude and savage, how can they make such delicious food?
"Starbucks is a café." Shan Zhuokun unabashedly boasted, "The coffee and ice cream there are super delicious, and I used to go there to eat ice cream whenever I had time." So, slowly, I learned how to make sorbet. However, then again, an excellent person like my brother is originally a treasure boy, and he knows a lot of things, so you can worship it slowly. ”
Chunxue and Xia He glanced at each other, and at the same time cast a loving look at Shan Zhuokun.
At this moment, in their eyes, the versatile gentleman has completely become a big hero who steps on colorful auspicious clouds.
Shan Zhuokun was stared at by Chunxue and Xia He as 'creepy', but on the surface, he still pretended to be nothing.
In the final analysis, the women in this world are and have no resistance to excellent men. Hey, but then again, you can't blame them for being stupid and sweet, you can only blame yourself for being too attractive.
Thinking of this, he unconsciously became fluttery.
"Okay, let's practice here today, and everyone is doing very well." After relining the line, Shan Zhuokun took the juju and said to the family, "When there is a chance to turn back, Ben Shangxian suggested that the emperor hold a palace juju match, and strive to let you all play when the time comes, and have a good time, okay?" ”
When the family members heard him say this, they were immediately excited. If there is really a chance to kick those royal relatives and nobles to the ground and show the prestige of the General's Mansion, then they are afraid that they will fly happily.
"Shangxian, we must listen to you, practice hard, and strive to win glory for the General's Mansion." The families vied with each other to show their determination.
"Okay, ambitious!" Shan Zhuokun gave them a thumbs up, "This is what the master should say." Well, I see that everyone likes to eat popsicles, so why don't you make some more and distribute them to everyone in the house, okay? ”
Before the family could answer, he saw Yu Chi Baolin hurrying over accompanied by Cui'er. When he came to the basin, he bent down and looked inside with anticipation, and saw that it was empty, so he shouted to Shan Zhuokun dissatisfiedly:
"Shangxian, this is yours, why don't you tell General Ben if there is something delicious, you have to eat it secretly?"
"Hey, didn't General Wei Chi just have a bad stomach?" Shan Zhuokun pretended to be surprised and said, "Could it be that I took a panacea, why did I get better so quickly?" ”
Yu Chi Bao Linden was choked by him, and he was dumbfounded and speechless.
Shan Zhuokun smiled slightly, and continued to give a few more instructions to the family before letting them go to the dining room and start making ice cream for the whole house according to their own recipe.
