Volume 3 Xuanwu Gate Chapter 76 The secret weapon to coax the little girl
The sound was very familiar, just a wall away from his yard. How do you listen to it, how does it look like the eldest grandson's youngest daughter, Li Lizhi, crying heartbroken, crying silently, and there are two strange women's voices next to her to follow and persuade.
Mingyu is strange, this Li Shimin's pearl in the palm is the most favored by him and his eldest grandson, who dares to provoke her when he is full?
got up and walked out of the yard, sure enough, it was Li Liqing, crying with tears in her eyes, sobbing and sobbing, and a delicate little face that could be broken by blowing bullets was full of tears on the left and right.
Lizhi cried sadly, shrugged her shoulders, and held something in her palm, and the two maids next to her were trying to persuade her, but it was still useless.
Li Mingyu strode over and asked, "Xiao Lizhen, what's wrong?" Crying so sadly, come to the big brother to see, yo, this little face is crying like a little cat. ”
Li Lizhi raised her two small hands in front of Mingyu's eyes and cried, "Sparrow." My finches are dead, woo-woo-woo......"
Mingyu looked down and saw that Li's little hand was holding a young swallow, thinking that he couldn't withstand the cold of Chang'an's winter, and he was already lifeless at this time. Mingyu replied, "If it's dead, it's dead, and the eldest brother will give you another one." ”
How do you know that it's okay not to say this, Li Lizhi cried after hearing it, it was sad. Li Mingyu was completely panicked, and he was most afraid that his eldest grandson would hear it, in case of misunderstanding, I would make her so sad that the pearl in her palm would be so sad, so she would pay it back and hurry up to coax her.
The two maids next to him saluted Mingyu, and then explained, "Xiao Langjun doesn't know that this young swallow is the little county lord's usual playmate. I think that because this chick was born with a weak physique, it didn't break its wings very much, fell into the courtyard, and happened to be picked up by the little county lord. The little lord was kind-hearted and took care of it for more than a few months, and the chicks were healed, but they were unable to fly because of their damaged wings. The cold winter is coming, the chick can not fly to the south for the winter, so he has to stay in the little county lord's room to play with her, but unfortunately the weather has been freezing recently, maybe the climate is not suitable, after all, it is still unbearable. Thinking about it, the little county lord couldn't accept it for a while, so he was so sad. ”
"Oh, I see." Li Mingyu knows that little girls are naturally full of sympathy, and it is not strange that they like these cats and dogs, and it is inevitable that they can't turn their mood around for a while.
Lizhi cried for a long time, stopped her sorrow, and asked Mingyu with teary eyes, "Brother, my mother said that you know Sun Lao Immortal, you have excellent medical skills, and you can live and die human flesh and bones, can you ask Sun Lao Immortal to save my sparrows?" ”
Mingyu has a big head, your swallow is dead and hard, Hua Tuo is alive, and there is no way for Shennong to come back to life. Besides, although this Sun Simiao has been described as being able to live and die with human flesh and bones, after all, it is just a description, and besides, the old Taoist often sees the head and does not see the tail, and travels to collect medicine, where can I find such a big Zhongnan Mountain Range. I had to comfort: "Uh... Beauty, although this old Sun Immortal's medical skills are clever, but after all, manpower is exhausted from time to time, and this matter of life and death, even if Sun Lao Immortal is afraid in person, there is no way to do it. ”
After listening to this, the disappointment in a pair of big eyes overflowed, her head was lowered, her mouth was choked, and tears were in circles in her eyes.
Li Mingyu saw that this little guy was really a tear bag, how could he persuade and persuade him to cry, so he had to squat down and say to Lizhi gently, "Lizhi, since your finch is dead, it is better for us to bury it together." It doesn't help you to be sad like this, it's better for us to let it go to the ground, reincarnate, and reincarnate in the next life. ”
Li Li asked, "Is there really a reincarnation?" ”
Mingyu coaxed her in an affirmative tone, "Seriously, in fact, death is also another form of new life, the end of life and the beginning." So don't be sad anymore. Let's find a good place to bury it. ”
With Li Liqian, he found a flower bed, dug a shallow pit, and buried the young swallow. Then Li Lizhi clasped her hands together and chanted words in her mouth, as if she was praying.
buried the bird, seeing that Lizhi was still depressed, depressed, and worried, Mingyu had to continue to think about coaxing her, children, unhappy come and go quickly. "That's it, let's go, big brother will take you to eat something delicious."
After that, he took Li Lizhen's little hand, took the two maids, asked where the room was, and walked away.
Came to the room, the head of the kitchen hurriedly came out to greet him, Mingyu waved his hand impatiently, let them do what they should do, called a fat cook who was in charge of the three meals of beauty to come and help, Mingyu walked around the room with his hands behind his back, while looking at the ingredients, while thinking about what to get out, not only to make it simple, but also not too complicated, children like to eat.
Milk? Well, this is useful, and it is good for children to eat more. Mingyu pointed with his hand, and the fat cook lady understood, and hurriedly took it and followed behind. Frosting? Yes, children like to eat sweet. Take it. Eggs, too, are used and held. Well, Mingyu suddenly remembered a delicacy that was simple and delicious, and it was liked by both adults and children, and it would definitely make Lizhi laugh.
After the selection of materials, Li Mingyu began to be busy, there was no wok, replaced by a casserole, poured in the milk and boiled, while directing the fat cook to pay attention to the heat, the fire must not be too big, and it should be boiled over low heat.
After a while, the milk boiled and the milk was tumbling. Pour the milk into a large bowl and let cool.
Beat the eggs, remove the yolk and only take the egg white, stir well with chopsticks and beat well. While Mingyu was doing his hand, he taught the fat chef, "Remember, this egg white should be loose enough, if it is not loose enough, it will be lumpy when mixed with milk, so that the taste is not smooth enough." ”
The fat cook nodded again and again, listening intently.
At this time, it was winter, the weather was cold, and the boiling milk cooled quickly, and a thick layer of milk skin rose on it.
Mingyu instructed the fat cook to take a pair of bamboo chopsticks, and then said to the fat cook, "Be careful here, don't puncture this layer of milk skin, and keep it intact." After speaking, he gently picked up the corner of the milk skin with bamboo chopsticks, revealing a gap, and poured the milk below back into the casserole, and at this time there was still a layer of milk skin in the bowl.
Then I took the frosting, I don't know how the frosting in the Tang Dynasty was extracted, it looked yellow and sticky, I licked it with the tip of my tongue, fortunately, the sweetness was also full. One spoonful, two spoonfuls, four or five spoonfuls were added, and Mingyu felt that it was almost. Then slowly pour the egg whites into the milk, and tell the fat cook to start stirring, until the frosting is completely dissolved and the milk bubbles.
Filtering out the bubbles, Mingyu instructed the fat cook, "This is the most critical step, look carefully, this layer of milk skin must not be broken, otherwise all the work will be wasted." "Slowly pour the milk mixed with frosting and egg whites into the bowl along the gaps in the milk skin in the previous bowl.
The milk flows down the gap into the bowl, and the previous layer of milk skin slowly floats again.
"Hoo ——!" Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief, it was finally not in vain, and the milk skin was intact.
The next step is to put a lid on top of the bowl and put it on the pot to steam.
While explaining that the fat cook is optimistic about the fire, and it will take a quarter of an hour to steam, Mingyu walked out of the room, although the workload is not large, but he is still busy sweating, mainly because he has not done it for many years, and the craftsmanship is inevitably rusty.
The time is not large, take it out of the pot, and a bowl of cool, smooth and sweet double skin milk is freshly baked.
The dessert of double skin milk, which only began to appear in the Qing Dynasty, originated in Shunde, Guangdong, and is one of the signature desserts of the Cantonese style. In his previous life, in order to pursue a girl who likes sweets, Mingyu deliberately spent a lot of effort to learn a lot of easy-to-make and delicious desserts on the Internet, but unfortunately in the end, he was issued a good person card without even holding the girl's hand.
Mingyu stayed a little cold, smiled and held it in front of Lizhen, and said, "Taste it, this is what I made for you, big brother." ”
Lizhi took it and tasted it, the mellow aroma of the milk mixed with the sweetness of the frosting, coupled with the tenderness of the eggs, I just felt that I had never eaten such a delicious thing. After all, the beauty of the child's heart, sadness comes and goes quickly, after eating the food, immediately burst into laughter, big eyes bent into a crescent, and said happily, "Delicious!" It's so delicious! I'm going to eat it too! ”
Mingyu smiled and said, "Okay! Big brother will do it for you again, as much as you want! ”
I made two bowls with my own hands, and the little belly I ate was round, and the beauty was still unfinished, but unfortunately I couldn't eat it.
Seeing that this dessert from later generations was so popular, Mingyu was also happy in his heart, and secretly wondered if he could open a dessert shop in Datang for more than a thousand years? Forget it, it's too unproductive, people are all playing money villages, frying land, and a bowl of double-skin milk can only make a few dollars, even if it is a signature dessert that will open a restaurant in the future.
Mingyu asked the fat cook, "Have you ever written down every step?" ”
The fat cook smiled and nodded, "Oh, Xiao Langjun is really good, this pair of leather milk is simple and delicious, I remember it all clearly, and I can't make mistakes." I see that the little princess loves to eat very much, and I will make it for her every day in the future. ”
"Well, you can make a few more servings and give them to a few sons to taste. Remember, don't put too much frosting, the little ones are teething, and eating too many sweets is not good. Instructing the fat cook, Mingyu took the remaining bowl of double-skin milk and tilted his head at Li Liqian, and said, "Let's go, let's send this to your mother and give it to your mother!" ”
