Chapter Fifty-Six: Making Intricate Pastries

Although Wei Jingran didn't want to go back at this time, now that she had gained a firm foothold in the capital, there was no suitable excuse for him to continue to accompany her with a dead face.

It's time to leave.

Li Chuxia has been busy making new pastries for Guiyuefang these days, because a nobleman in the palace is about to celebrate his birthday, and Guiyuefang is a hand-ordered pastry shop, so he has to come up with tricks to congratulate the nobleman on his birthday.

Then she became the person who wanted to conjure up tricks, busy making new pastries in Guiyue Fang every day, and even didn't have time to send him off on the day Wei Jingran left.

However, she had already written the letter the night in advance and stuffed it in his package.

Although the calligraphy is still crooked after so many years, he can barely read it clearly, and the content of the letter is just to tell him to support the two restaurants and take good care of his health.

When Wei Jingran was sitting in the carriage, he remembered to see if there was anything missing in his heart, so he looked for it, and then he saw the letter in the package.

Looking at the above word by word, my heart was inexplicably warmed a lot.

Although the above self is a little crooked and does not look very elegant, but in Wei Jingran's impression, Li Shuxia has not been better than Mr. Reading's teachings since she was a child, and it is not easy to write herself into what she is now.

She just came back to write her homework when Xiao Chuli went to school, and then learned some knowledge of literacy, and it was not easy to exert those meager knowledge to the point where she is now.

But what Wei Jingran didn't know was that Li Chuxia was able to write these slightly traditional fonts, these characters were similar to those ancient handwriting in the country where Li Chuxia was at that time, and the reason why she didn't write well was because the brush was too uncomfortable to hold.

But I can't make those pens or pencils that are very comfortable to use.

In desperation, Li Chuxia learned some how to use brushes, but although these brushes are very difficult to use, they still need to be calm to be able to write real characters.

In addition, now that she has come to the capital again, she has no chance to practice calligraphy, so her writing is getting uglier and uglier.

The noble man in the capital is going to celebrate his birthday, so he needs exquisite pastries, Li Chuxia inquired with Liuniang, and then he learned that the noble man was Baili Yunzheng's sister Baili Qiaoer.

Because now the general is fighting for the country on the border, and the emperor naturally wants to do it on a large scale, the birthday of the only sister of the iron-faced general, because of his younger brother to win glory for himself, so Baili Qiaoer's status in the harem is now favored, comparable to the queen.

I don't know if it's because of Aiwu and Wu, when I thought of the woman who was also surnamed Baili, coupled with the relationship between myself and Baili Yunzheng, Li Chuxia poured a lot of effort into it when making pastries.

Liuniang looked at Li Chuxia, making pastries for the palace so seriously, and she was also very happy in her heart, and sighed that this time she was finally able to make a good deal.

Every time the court specifically asked Guiyuefang to make pastries, Liuniang and his wife were worried about studying new styles, if not, they would also make new tricks, if they angered the people in the palace a little.

The consequences are ordinary people who can't bear it, so every time they make pastries, they are frightened, but this time it is different, this time with Li Chuxia's participation, the process of making pastries is also very smooth.

Thinking that since she is Baili Yunzheng's sister, Baili Qiao'er is about to celebrate her birthday, Li Chuxia thought that this man should return to the capital with gifts at this time, and he will also send a letter to himself at that time.

Inexplicably, there was some anticipation, after all, these ancient people were very particular about giving gifts to their relatives and friends on such an important day as their birthdays, Li Chuxia couldn't help but feel a lot warmer when he thought of Baili Yunzheng's handsome letter, and he felt a lot warmer, and some wanted to laugh.

"Early summer, did you have a name for this pastry you made?"

Liuniang has a good relationship with Li Chuxia on weekdays, so she also came over to ask if the name of the pastry made was good, after all, as long as it is a pastry sent to the palace, the name will naturally be gorgeous and beautiful.

And now that this is a birthday celebration, it is naturally even more afraid to continue to be sloppy.

When Li Chuxia looked up, the smile on the corner of his mouth had not been taken away, and he was stunned for a while and remembered what Liuniang was doing this time.

So I hurriedly introduced the name of this new pastry to Liuniang.

Li Chuxia stretched out his hand and pointed to this delicate pastry, the crystal skin was shining, and he could see the filling inside, and he could clearly look at this pastry like white jade, with a little fruit in it.

"I thought about it for a long time and didn't think about what this pastry is called, I think it can be called, Shijin."

"Good name."

Liu Niang couldn't help but admire, and she admired Li Chuxia more and more in her heart, she not only makes all kinds of novel pastries, but also tastes very good, even if it is a plain and casual thing, it can make people eat and have an endless aftertaste.

Moreover, Liuniang herself also went to find out about Li Chuxia and signed a note with Fulou, the largest restaurant in Beijing, saying that all the hot dishes that Fulou had sold recently were from her.

"Early summer, that is, I will be able to have a son in a few years, I wonder if you want to get engaged to him?"

Liuniang thought that she was only a half-old girl under her name, and looking at Li Chuxia's excellent appearance, she couldn't help but want to take her for herself.

"Liuniang, what do you say?" Li Chuxia smiled embarrassedly, if she wants to marry Liuniang's son, then she will have to wait at least ten more years, and then she will become an old girl.

Li Chuxia couldn't help but gently slapped Liuniang's shoulder with her hand, "If I want to marry your son, I will be in my thirties by then, and I will really be a yellow-faced woman." ”

"Hahaha, just kidding." Liuniang also knew that her joke was just a casual remark, after all, she was also very happy in her heart to be able to meet such an excellent girl as Li Chuxia.

Liuniang remembered that when Li Chuxia came over, she said that she came to the capital to show her skills, and she has not yet married, it would be a pity if such a good girl did not marry a wishful husband, and she was puzzled in her heart, and she couldn't help but look at Li Chuxia, who was busy.

"But when it comes to business, you should get married at such an old age, why are you still making money alone outside and not getting married?" Liu Niang asked curiously about the person in front of her.

Li Chuxia remembered that the person he liked was still far away on the battlefield, so he said lightly: "I have someone I like, he is still on the battlefield, and when he comes back, maybe the matter between me and him will be settled." ”

Liu Niang suddenly realized that the people who people like are now loyal to the country, and just now they were still thinking about telling others about matchmaking, and now that people have people they like, they will no longer intervene in such a foot.

"Presumably the person you like is naturally talented and beautiful, right?" Liu Niang looked at Li Chuxia in front of her with burning eyes.

Li Chuxia faintly crossed a few black lines on his forehead, he really didn't expect Liuniang to be so gossipy, but when he thought of it, after that Baili Yunzheng, his eyes couldn't help but be a little gentle.

"He's a good guy too, of course." Li Chuxia mentions the person he likes, just like a girl in love, her eyes are full of stars, and she will miss the person she likes all the time.

"Then tell me who he is?"

Liuniang wanted to know more and more what kind of person Li Chuxia liked, after all, this girl was different from the young lady of the family, and she admired this girl's character and ability very much.

He ...... He may be a cold person in the eyes of the world, but when it comes to me, he is not like that, and I can't tell what kind of person he is, but I like him very much now. ”

Li Chuxia remembered that everyone's evaluation of Baili Yunzheng was very indifferent and cold, when he faced himself, he was sometimes stupid and arrogant, but he didn't show his indifferent side, and many people also said that he still killed people, but the people he killed were enemies, and he would never attack those innocent people and animals.

Sometimes this must be a person's quality, anyway, she likes Baili Yunzheng very much, how can she like a person?

If she wants to like it, even if he is plain, lame, or blind, she will like it, and if she doesn't like it, even if he is the king of heaven and the most honorable emperor in the world, she will not like it.

"Hmm." Liuniang replied lightly, she looked at Li Chuxia like this here, and felt that this girl and that man must be very in love, after all, she and her father-in-law had gone through all kinds of hard work to get to this point.

The pastries in the palace were finally sent to the palace on this day, and the carriage returned to the drunken spring breeze overnight, and Wei Jingran, the first one, also arrived safely.

"Brother Jingran!"

Li Chuyun, who came out to greet Wei Jingran with joy, not only was his eyes a little lonely when his eyes touched the person behind him who didn't want to see him, but he immediately changed to another happy expression.

Li Chuyun has also grown up now, and many teenagers are about to catch up with Li Chuxia's size, but the expression on his face is still very immature, blinking his big eyes and looking at Wei Jingran in front of him.

"Why didn't my sister come back?"

Wei Jingran's eyes quickly flashed an uncertain look, and then quickly covered it up, looking at the little girl in front of him with a faint smile.

"Your sister is busy in the capital, she has earned a lot of silver, and now she has her own little world in the capital."

Wei Jingran remembered the girl he liked, and now she is also very powerful, she can take charge of herself on her own, and she is very comforted in her heart.
