Chapter 406: Happy Birthday Xue Lang!

The final result of the salute was that Xue Lang and Xiao Yu missed all four!

Others are heroes and cherish heroes, but they are stupid and pitiful fools. Walking together to the place where the saint had stored the dogwood wine, they looked at each other, and they gave each other their hands, which was quite a bit of a sense of mutual gratitude. It's better for two people to lose face together than to lose face alone!

The palace people poured wine for the two, and Xiao Yu greeted Xue Lang with a smile: "In previous years, it was only me, when I drank, I was quite embarrassed and sad, this year I have Xue Shilang as my companion, I am grateful, please!" ”

it!

Xue Lang felt a herd of alpaca-like objects rushing past his heart, and couldn't help but say, "Although I also missed all four, the distance I shot was farther than Xiao Neishi!" ”

Xiao Yu looked at Xue Lang, Xue Lang read from his eyes the same mental activity as he had just now, and the two men glared at each other. The palace man next to him weakly reminded: "Xue Jungong, Xiao Neishi, the wine has been poured, please!" ”

Because of the punishment for poor performance in the salute, the drinking utensils are a large flat clay bowl, and the wine contained in it can be visually sized as a pot on a normal day. And Xue Lang and Xiao Yu need to drink three bowls.

Xue Lang was very calm, and Xiao Yu's face was faintly solemn. The two of them took a bowl one by one, Xue Lang drank it in one gulp, Xiao Yu drank it in three times, and after drinking a bowl, the palace people poured another bowl, Xue Lang looked at the wine bowl, and then looked at Xiao Yu's solemn expression, couldn't help laughing, and sighed after laughing: "It's all the end of the world, so don't embarrass men!" ”

Xiao Yu was stunned and asked, "They are all fallen people at the end of the world...... This sentence is quite subtle, what is the source? ”

Xue Lang secretly screamed in his heart, so he habitually said it, and hurriedly remedied: "It's a saying that I am used to, but I can't remember the source!" ”

Xiao Yu nodded and said with a smile: "I think it's a common saying." Speaking of the whole dynasty, the two of me are not in the four branches, and it is also a rare fate, in previous years, I was alone, very embarrassed, this year there is Xue Shilang as a companion, when the floating white! ”

Xue Lang also laughed, picked up the wine bowl, and touched Xiao Yu. Everyone was sitting next to them, and they couldn't hear what the two of them said, but seeing that their faces were not very good before, and then they actually talked and laughed, the saint couldn't help but ask curiously: "Youyang, are you two comforting each other?" ”

Xue Lang silently covered his face in his heart and chose to be honest: "Xiao Neishi is grateful for having a minister as a companion today, I told him that although I didn't shoot either, I shot farther than him, and we are different." Xiao Neishi disagreed, so he argued with the two of us, and then both of us thought that they were both men who were not in the four branches, so don't hurt each other, shake hands and make peace, and cherish each other! After all, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and the four branches are not hit, and it is only the two of us! ”

"Poofha!"

The sage was smiling and laughing, and there were no longer a few people present who reacted like the sage. Especially when Xue Lang said it, he still had a straight face, with a serious face, which added to the smile.

Looking at the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military capital hahahaha, Xue Lang was very helpless, he was obviously telling the truth, not humor! looked at Xiao Yu speechlessly, Xiao Yu gave him a look of understanding and comfort, and the two raised their glasses to each other again!

Seeing this, the ministers were haha again, and they didn't have any sympathy at all. Princess Pingyang on the side also squinted with a smile, and Princess Xiangyang laughed so hard that she almost fell on top of her: "Sanniang, this colt is really interesting!" ”

Princess Pingyang said indifferently: "Youyang is just upright. ”

"Okay, it's funny?"

The two sisters looked at each other and smiled.

At the end of the painful shooting salute, Xue Lang and Xiao Yu at the end of the crane were fined three bowls of wine, and Xiao Yu was already drunk. In addition to Xue Lang's expression wrinkled to express his disgust for the taste, his eyes were clear and not affected by half a point.

When the feast is over, the hour is still early, and on rare festivals, the saint will not detain everyone in the palace for a day, end early, and leave some time to accompany his family.

Xue Lang went out of the palace and returned home, and Su Han and his colleagues from the Imperial Doctor's Department climbed high and looked into the distance. There are also many doctors and doctors from other places in the Taiyi Department, and they can't go home during the Chung Yeung Festival holiday, so they meet up with colleagues and friends who can go together.

On a rare holiday, it was another birthday, Xue Lang went home to change his clothes, and went straight to the kitchen, ready to make some food to treat himself. Xue Lang likes to cook and read in his spare time, reading makes the spirit happy, cooking is both physical and mental pleasure, do it yourself, whether it is for others to eat, or eat by yourself, the sense of achievement is pleasant.

In order to make it easier to cook, Xue Lang deliberately built a kitchen in the backyard where he lived, as well as a stove and oven for making roast meat, which were made of bricks and pasted with mud, and all kinds of cooking utensils and kitchen utensils were complete.

Xue Lang has traveled to many places, both at home and abroad, in order to make a living, and abroad after the economy is prosperous, he takes Xue Qing out to see the world and travel.

The oven was copied when I was traveling abroad. This is not difficult, there is no technical content, the materials are complete, Xue Lang can build one himself, simple plasterer work, Xue Lang is not a problem.

"Lamei, go to the big kitchen and get me something!"

After saying what she needed, let Lamei fetch it, Hexiang saw that Xue Lang was going to make food, and called a rough maid to come in and burn the fire-

In Xue Lang's courtyard, the maids who serve closely are still only lotus fragrance and plum, and they were sent to the knitting room in the house by Xue Lang during the winter solstice. This girl looks simple, but her hands are very skillful, and she is willing to work hard to learn things, and she is actually quite talented in weaving, spinning cotton thread, weaving cotton cloth, and playing cotton. Xue Lang saw that she was talented in craftsmanship, so he transferred her to be in charge of the weaving of cotton fabrics, which was appropriate.

The winter solstice was transferred, and only Hexiang and Lamei were left in the backyard, and the housekeeper wanted to transfer people in, but Xue Lang refused, he was alone, and there was not much to do, only promised to add four rough maids who were responsible for sprinkling and sweeping, liberating Hexiang and Lamei from rough work, and taking care of his daily life, but also able to support it.

I roasted three roast goose, made some char siu by the way, and then started making cakes. There was no milk, so some goat's milk was prepared; If there is no butter, soybean oil is used, and it is made experimentally.

The cake made of goat's milk tastes good**, the taste of goat's milk is too heavy than milk, give up! Make sponge cake with only eggs and flour -

The first furnace is inexperienced, the heat is not well controlled, and the roast is slightly browned; The second furnace was not cooked enough; The third furnace can be regarded as touching a little doorway, and it is done!

The baked cake is fluffy and slightly sweet, but when you spread a layer of homemade jam and cut a layer of fruit slices, the sourness of the fruit and the sweetness of the cake should be just right. Finally, use different colors of jam to write a sentence on the cake -

Happy birthday to Xue Lang...... Hmm, I'm used to writing traditional characters, and it's also traditional characters written with jam!

Finally, Xue Lang patted the flour on his hand and ordered, "Lamei, find me a small candle!" ”

"Whoa!"

Then, Lamei found a candle the size of a baby's wrist! Xue Lang took a breath: "I said small!" ”

Lamei was very innocent: "Yu Dalang, this is already the youngest." ”

Well, it seems that the two do not have the same understanding of size!

Xue Lang waved his hand weakly, took the freshly baked cake back to the room, went to the study to find a carving knife and prepared to process it himself, and always blew a candle to meet the occasion when eating birthday cake, and then-

Happy birthday Xue Lang!
