Chapter 179: Lotus Cake

The warm sun shines brightly, and the smoky weeping willows beside the lotus carp pond are gilded with golden silk. Colorful koi fish swing their tails in the blue waves, floating and golden, and a few budding lotus flowers are soaked in clear dew, standing in the rippling lotus leaves.

The breeze blows, and the lotus leaves are like blue waves.

It was late June and early July.

"Is it true that this scar can't be removed? Looks weird. The soft white dress outlined the petite and delicate figure of Xi Yusheng, she lowered her eyes and carefully looked at the hideous scar at Nan Zuishisheng's heart, and her clear and crystalline cat pupils revealed a sincere distressed look.

Hearing this, the fairy girl gathered her scattered collar without care, Nan Zuisheng raised her eyes to look at Xi Yusheng's frowning face, and quipped with a shallow smile: "It's just a scar, what's there to worry about?" Look at the sad look of yours, as if the scar was on my face. ”

"Oops, drunk! Don't make fun of me! That scar is really hideous and terrifying, how much it affects the appearance when you wear a skirt in the summer, and I am still worried about you like this, and as a result, you don't care about your appearance at all. Xi Yusheng turned sideways depressedly, Yuxue's delicate face was impregnated with innocent worry and distress.

Xiu's narrow and slender jade fingers tidied up the scattered collars without hurrying, and after Nan Zuisheng buttoned the butterfly plate buckle of the silk cheongsam, he pushed the delicate pastries placed on the stone table forward: "Okay, Yu Sheng, I know that you are worried about me, but the scar is on the heart, not on the face, although I can't wear relatively low-necked clothes in the future, but under normal circumstances, others can't see it." ”

Light pink and pale green blend together, and in a white porcelain plate embossed with several peach blossoms, delicate pastries in the shape of lotus flowers bloom among the fluttering peach petals.

The long maroon curly hair fell shallowly along the edge of the stone bench, and Xi Yusheng's sad and depressed side turned around, and the crystal cat pupils clearly reflected the quiet and beautiful picture of dragonflies and butterflies.

"You're really angry, even if that scar grows on your heart, it's not good-looking after all. Forget it, it's useless to talk to you, I'd better ask my grandfather and father more when I go home. She turned half of Yuxue's lovely face, and couldn't hide her hatred for not becoming steel, and glared at Nan Zuisheng angrily.

The soft warm breeze slowly blew, blowing the waterfall green silk behind Nan Zuisheng, she stared at her friend's puffing cute appearance, and her lips were slightly curved: "This is your favorite lotus cake in the past, yesterday you said that you wanted to come to visit me, so I specially ordered the kitchen to prepare this snack for you." ”

The girl raised her wrist with her eyes, picked up a lotus crisp and put it in a small porcelain plate in front of Xi Yusheng, her clear ink eyes were gentle and intoxicating, just like the breeze blowing through the lotus carp pond water, sparkling and sparkling.

"Why, don't you even want to eat your favorite lotus cake?" Nan Zuisheng smiled and looked at Xi Yusheng's erratic expression, and his clear ink eyes silently caught the other party's wandering gaze.

The long maroon curly hair made a graceful half-arc in mid-air with the movement of Xi Yusheng turning around, she

Looking down at the lotus cake in the small porcelain plate, while quietly swallowing saliva, while pretending to be arrogant, he raised his delicate chin lightly and said: "Originally, I didn't really want to eat it, but for the sake of our Miss Nanda's careful preparation, I will reluctantly taste it." ”

The delicate and beautiful lotus flower bloomed in the white porcelain plate, and she lowered her eyes on the side of the lotus petals, and was instantly crushed on the white porcelain by her fingertips, and the pale pink petal residues were smeared on the peach blossom branches embossed in the dish.

"Why did the lotus cake break? I didn't bother either. Xi Yusheng was puzzled and picked up the crumbs of the pastry, and the reflection of the weeping willows in the pavilion was shallow in the crystal cat pupils.

"This lotus cake is made by a new method that I have developed myself, and unlike the previous fried and crispy lotus cakes, it is a softer pastry." The double-sided embroidered lotus koi fan shines in the sunlight that shines obliquely into the gazebo, and the south drunken shallow fan is shallow a few times, and the tassel fan pendant is swaying.

A lotus cake was carefully placed on the palm of Xi Yusheng's palm, and she lowered her eyes to carefully look at the lifelike petal Furui: "No wonder it is different from the lotus cakes I used to eat, although it is fragile, but the shape of the lotus flower is delicate and beautiful, and the petals bloom in full bloom in turn, which is really beautiful." ”

"It's important to look good on the outside, but as a pastry, the taste is the soul of lotus cake, so try it." The tassel fan pendant embellished with chalcedony safety buckle shone faintly in the gilt golden beam, and Nan Zui Sheng brushed by carelessly, and the slightly cool touch of chalcedony was fleeting.

Xi Yusheng lowered her eyes when she heard the words and took a bite gently, she tasted the lotus cake in her mouth, and after being silent for a long time, her pupils suddenly lit up: "Delicious!." ”

She swallowed the sweet but not greasy pastry in her mouth, the taste was fresh and elegant, and held up the remaining lotus cake in her palm that had been bitten off two petals by herself, and her cat eyes were crystal bright: "Drunk, this lotus cake made with your newly figured out method, whether in appearance or inside, is far better than those fried and crispy lotus cakes in the past." ”

"If you like it." Nan Zuisheng gently shook the Su embroidery fan in his hand, and Mo Yu's long hair fluttered in the wind.

"Tell me quickly, what is the new method you have come up with to make lotus cake? When I remember it, I have to tell the cook at home so that they can cook it for me often. Xi Yusheng squinted his crystal clear cat pupils slightly, and after swallowing the lotus cake in his palm, he patted his soft little belly with satisfaction.

Slender Jade fingered the messy and fluttering long hair of Mo Yu, Nan Zuisheng behaved elegantly, and after drinking half a cup of Biluo Spring without hurry, he looked at the sparkling lotus carp pond not far away, and said slowly: "The new method I figured out is very simple, but it is a little troublesome." ”

Embossed with peach blossom beauty, the white porcelain tea cup with silk fluttering silk was gently put back into the tray of agarwood, she buckled the same relief of peach blossoms, the thick and scorching porcelain cover, the voice is clear and soft:

"First of all, collect the dew from the early morning lotus leaves, as well as a few budding lotus buds. Peel off the petals one by one, then pick the tender lotus leaves and wash them, then mash and filter the juice. Then knead the light pink flower juice and the light green leaf juice into the dough, and add the dew and dough on the lotus leaves. Finally, after steaming, take it out, and carve out the appearance of the lotus flower in full bloom, so as to carefully make this small plate of fresh and elegant --- lotus cake. ”

Dragonflies point to water, koi fish peck at food.
