Yao Yuran laughed and said angrily: "Look at your thin arms and legs, you should also exercise hard!" She also knew that Zhao Hengzhi was a young master born with a golden soup spoon, and he had never been touched by any spring water, so he naturally couldn't do this farm work.

Zhao Hengzhi walked two steps tremblingly holding the pumpkin, Yao Yuran saw this, and couldn't help but smile: "It's better for me to come, in case you fall, it won't be good!" ”

"No, how can I make the lady tired?" Zhao Hengyi said as he walked forward unsteadily.

Yao Yuran had no choice but to follow his wishes and let him act as a coolie, and Zhao Hengzhi moved the pumpkin from the mountain behind the yamen all the way to the door of the kitchen in the backyard.

When he landed, Yao Yuran had just stepped into the threshold of the kitchen, but he saw Ye Junjun holding a fragrant radish cake and feeding it to Chu Xiao's mouth.

"Oops...... I'm really sorry to disturb you......" Yao Yuran showed a knowing aunt smile, it was rare to see a pair of golden boys and girls feeding each other so sweetly, how could it destroy their artistic conception.

"It's okay, there's nothing unpleasant." Ye Junjun said, but the skin like snow was flushed, revealing a shy color.

Zhao Hengzhi had just put down the pumpkin in his hand, and Yao Yuran was about to pull him out, but unexpectedly, Ye Junjun pulled Chu Xiao's sleeve awkwardly and ran out of the kitchen.

Zhao Hengzhi couldn't help but smile when he saw them fleeing, and said to Yao Yu with a hippie smile: "Lady, you promised to help make pumpkin pie for your husband, but you are not allowed to go back." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll do it, you help me light the fire first!" Yao Yuran said as she rolled up her sleeves, ready to make a big punch, her best is this pumpkin pie, previously in the 21st century, when she was in the countryside, her grandmother taught her the craft of making pumpkin pie.

Yao Yuran first cut the pumpkin into pieces of the same size, then put them in a pot and steamed, and when they were steamed, they were pureed to make a pumpkin pie filling.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Zhao Hengzhi smelled the steamer that exuded the aroma of pumpkin, and couldn't help but want to open the steamer to see if the pumpkin inside was steamed.

"Don't move!" Yao Yuran slapped off Zhao Hengzhi's claws, and his apricot eyes glared at him. Zhao Hengzhi had no choice but to stay by the side obediently, not daring to act rashly.

After a while, Yao Yuran estimated that the time had come, and lifted the steamer again. The next step was to pinch the pumpkin pie, holding a thin crust in her hand and wrapping the pumpkin puree with white sugar into the filling. And Zhao Hengzhi was also about to move, he also pinched a pumpkin pie out.

"Kiss the lady, look, this is a heart-shaped pumpkin pie, representing the heart I love the lady." Zhao Heng said love words seriously.

"Tut-tut, this is too numb......" Yao Yuran couldn't help but get goosebumps, she was still not used to listening to the love words that came out of Zhao Hengzhi's mouth.

Zhao Hengzhi also put the heart-shaped pumpkin pie on the plate, and reached out to grab another piece of skin. But Yao Yuran's eyes suddenly rolled, and she dipped her fingers in the snow-white glutinous rice flour and scratched Zhao Hengzhi's nose.

In a blink of an eye, Zhao Hengzhi's nose became white, like a harlequin in Peking Opera. Yao Yuran couldn't help laughing: "Haha, it's so fun, husband Junjun, you can go singing......"

Not to be outdone, Zhao Hengzhi also dipped some powder, wiped Yao Yuran's left and right cheeks, and sneered: "Haha, you still laugh at me, you yourself have become a big cat!" His face was smug.

Yao Yuran huffed, she wiped Zhao Hengzhi's chin a few more times, this is good, Zhao Hengzhi looks like a Christmas father.

The two of them laughed and played for a while before Yao Yuran remembered that he had to fry the wrapped pumpkin pie in the oil pan. After a while, Yao Yuran poured oil into the pot, making a sizzling sound.

One by one, the pumpkins got out of the oil pot, exuding bursts of fragrant smell. The pumpkin was fried in the pot and was golden and golden, and it was picked up by Yao Yuran.

Zhao Hengzhi was impatient and stretched out his hand to get a piece of pumpkin pie to eat, but Yao Yuran slapped his hand off. "Watch out for hot hands!" Yao Yuran reminded him, and Zhao Hengzhi had no choice but to take a pair of chopsticks, carefully pick up the pumpkin pie, and put it to his mouth to blow the wind.

Zhao Hengzhi blew away the heat of the pumpkin pie, and then put the pumpkin pie to Yao Yuran's mouth, and said with a smile: "Lady, do you want to eat ...... first"

Yao Yuran opened her mouth and took a bite, she tasted it carefully, and boasted: "Yes, Grandma Ben's craftsmanship is really first-class, this pumpkin pie is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!" ”

Zhao Hengzhi couldn't wait, ate a piece, gave a thumbs up, and dipped endlessly, "The lady is really amazing!" Delicious! Delicious! ”

Yao Yuran remembered that when he was still in Shangshu Mansion before, he also made pumpkin pie and sent it to Mu Chengfeng to eat, Mu Chengfeng also praised her for her good craftsmanship, and said that if anyone married her, it would be a blessing!

Thinking of this, Yao Yuran took the pumpkin pie and strode out of the kitchen, she suddenly wanted Mu Chengfeng to taste the pumpkin pie she made again.

"Lady, I still want to eat!" Zhao Hengzhi hurriedly ran out, but saw Yao Yuran bring the pumpkin pie to Mu Chengfeng and Xiao Tianyue.

Yao Yuran smiled and said to Mu Chengfeng and Xiao Tianyue: "Princess, Master Horse, this is the pumpkin pie I made with my own hands, you can taste it!" ”

When Mu Chengfeng saw the pumpkin pie, his face was slightly stunned, which evoked a memory of him. Yao Yuran in her memory is still that young girl, she is wearing a thin cedar and running to Mufu with a food box.

At that time, she went in over the wall, and no one found out, just to bring him pumpkin pie! The pumpkin pie is crispy and delicious, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and when you bite into it, your mouth is full of sweet pumpkin flavor.

This is the memory between him and her.

Thinking of this, Mu Chengfeng couldn't help but show a soft smile, looked at her fixedly, and said, "The pumpkin pie made by Yu Ran is the most delicious food in the world. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Tianyue's face changed greatly, she couldn't help but twist her eyebrows, and angrily grabbed Mu Chengfeng's collar, "Mu Chengfeng!" What did you say? What about the spring rolls and osmanthus cakes I made for you to eat? Do you think you're chewing wax? ”

"No...... That was not what I meant. Mu Chengfeng realized that there was still a Xiao Tingyue present, and he completely ignored Xiao Tingyue's existence.

Yao Yuran was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, for fear that he would anger Xiao Tianyue. Zhao Hengzhi also saw it clearly, he guessed that it was very likely that Mu Chengfeng still remembered his wife, otherwise Mu Chengfeng would not have said such a sentence that angered Princess Tingyue.

Xiao Qianyue suddenly let go of Mu Chengfeng, she pointed the finger at Yao Yuran, gritted her teeth and said: "Yao Yuran, since my family Langjun is full of praise for your food, do you dare to accept my challenge?" ”

"Challenge? What challenges? Yao Yuran looked at Xiao Tianyue with a confused expression, not knowing what kind of challenge she wanted to carry out with her.

Xiao Tianyue's eyes moved slightly, and her lips lightly opened: "As a wife, the most important thing is to be virtuous and virtuous, and to have a good blue heart, compare and see who has more such qualities." Of course, the rules of the game are decided by the princess, and if you feel that the rules of the game are unfair, you can ask questions. ”

When Yao Yuran heard this, she felt that something was wrong, she felt that it would not be a good thing, she wanted to refuse this kind of meaningless competition, but this princess of Tingyue was short-tempered, brutal and willful, and it was not a fuel-efficient lamp at first glance, if she didn't accept her challenge, she was afraid that it would be endless.

Yao Yuran felt that she had always been competitive, but she didn't expect this princess to be more aggressive than her.

"Okay, I'll accept your challenge, but you have to write down the rules of the game, so as not to cause controversy when the time comes." Yao Yuran also put forward such a condition.

Xiao Tianyue happily agreed, and she raised her eyebrows and said: "Mrs. Zhao, this competition, naturally, there must be rewards and punishments, if you lose, you have to give one of your precious jewelry to the other party." And that's a small punishment for the loser, what do you think? ”

Xiao Tianyue has not liked Yao Yuran since she came to the Yamen, and now she wants to take this opportunity to give Yao Yuran a little bit of power. She is quite confident in herself, she has been smart and capable since she was a child, she is smart and intelligent, she can be literate and martial, she doesn't believe that a small Mrs. Micheng County will win her!

"Okay, I agree with your proposal." Yao Yuran said, then raised her right hand, on the wrist as smooth as a lotus root, there was a round and transparent jade bracelet, she hooked her lips and said: "This is the bracelet that my mother gave me when I got married, if you can win me, this jade bracelet is yours." ”

"Ahh Zhao Hengzhi exclaimed, he was a little reluctant to let Yao Yuran participate in such a competition, worried that she would lose the dowry because of this, so he whispered in Yao Yuran's ear: "Lady, don't be impulsive, this bracelet looks very valuable, don't easily agree to this bet......"

"It doesn't matter, it's not certain who loses and who wins." Yao Yuran's face was filled with a confident smile, and he said softly: "Have you forgotten that I have even won over you in eating, drinking, prostitution, and gambling before, are you still afraid of this unwritten competition?" ”

This kind of small scene, in Yao Yuran's opinion, is not enough to panic at all, besides, before it starts, how can he raise the morale of others and destroy his own prestige.

Xiao Tianyue also took off her hosta from her head, and said with a smile: "This is the jewelry given to me by my mother, this is also very important to me, I will make a bet on it!" ”

Xiao Tianyue said calmly, so since Yao Yuran is willing to take out her dowry, she can't be too stingy.

Mu Chengfeng couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Xiao Qianyue take off the hosta, and wrinkled his eyebrows and said: "Tianyue, you have to think clearly, it is a relic left to you by your mother......

He clearly knew that Xiao Qianyue's mother died in childbirth because of her, and the hosta was of great significance to Xiao Tianyue, if she lost it, she was afraid that she would regret it for the rest of her life, and it would be too late to cry.
