How to be at ease
The only way for a person to be at ease is to forget many things.
……
……
How do you want to forget?
Ye Qingjiang first made purple potatoes and pumpkins into fillings, and then made egg yolks into quicksand.
Quicksand is made from carrots, salted egg yolks, milk, and vegetable oil. )
Then I made a jam from melons and a red wild fruit (a bit like a raspberry) from the mountains.
After making another pot of cream, it was time to prepare to make snowy mooncakes.
She first mixes glutinous rice flour, sticky rice flour and flour well; Mix the milk, sugar and oil, stir well and pour in the flour you have just mixed.
Stir again into a homogeneous, thick batter; Sift the batter twice, then cover it with a white steaming cloth, put it in a steamer and steam it for two quarters of an hour, and then take it out after steaming.
Stir the steamed ice skin with chopsticks until smooth and cool, and then put it in the ice to chill.
Then prepare the cake flour: put an appropriate amount of glutinous rice flour in a pot and fry until it is slightly yellowed and tastes like cornstarch.
Finally, sprinkle part of the fried cake powder on the cutting board to prevent sticking, and also stain your hands, especially your fingertips.
Take an appropriate amount of ice skin and purple potato filling, flatten the ice skin, put in the purple potato filling, then clamp the ice skin with the tiger's mouth, slowly wrap the purple potato filling, wrap it well, and then rub it into a small ball by hand.
Pour cake flour into the mold for making snowy mooncakes to prevent sticking, and then put the finished mooncake balls into the mold.
Compact with the palm of your hand, turn the mold upside down and put it on the cutting board, press it down by hand, and then lift the mold to press out the pattern for the moon cake.
The mooncakes with other fillings are made in the same way, and after they are done, they are first chilled in the ice book, so that they will taste better when they are eaten.
Ye Qing had just finished his work, and when he walked to the Qingzhu Courtyard, he saw that the old Taoist had already come over, and he was sitting with Qian Junbao under the big tree in the courtyard playing chess.
She walked over and looked curiously for a moment.
I didn't know how to play Go before, so I thought it was too brain-burning to play.
Moreover, she felt a little bored after sitting for most of the day.
But after coming to this world, Qian Junbao would occasionally teach Ye Qing to play a few hands.
At the moment, of course, she is still a rookie in Go, but she can understand a little.
Even if she is a rookie, it can be seen that now these two are chess opponents, and the two on the chessboard are going their own way, and the chess is moving fast.
Ye Qing stood by for a while and was fascinated.
It can be seen that the veteran chess skills are really good, and Qian Junbao's chess skills that can kill Bai Lichu without leaving a piece of armor are not enough for him to see.
In the end, Qian Junbao struggled to support more than 20 hands, but it turned out to be a dead end.
Qian Junbao sat there, staring at the chessboard in a daze for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly, "One wrong step before, and then every step is wrong......
Lao Dao stretched out a hand to Qian Junbao with a smile, and said, "I have no regrets, let's pay the twenty taels first!" ”
Qian Junbao smiled bitterly, took out the purse from his waist, and took out a silver ticket with a denomination of one hundred taels and put it in front of Lao Dao.
"This ...... I can't find it! Lao Dao blew his beard, but his hand was already on the silver ticket.
Ye Qing bent down and glanced at Qian Junbao, and said with a smile: "You still play high-priced lottery chess?" Twenty taels for one plate! ”
Qian Junbao glanced back at Ye Qing, shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, and said, "The old man Yun Hongzi said that playing chess should be a little colorful, then there will be fun!" ”
Ye Qing glanced at Lao Dao again, and seeing his happy appearance, it didn't ruin his interest. smiled and said, "Oh, then you play, I'll get you some drinks!" ”
Qian Junbao saw that Lao Dao was trying to hide the silver ticket in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Put the silver ticket here first, let's play a few more rounds!" ”
Yun Hongzi glanced at Qian Junbao and smiled lightly: "Anyway, it must be the old man's in the end, what does it matter if you take it early!" ”
Qian Junbao waved his hand, and his face became solemn.
Seeing that Ye Qing had left, he suddenly narrowed his eyes, and after a while, he was a different person.
If you don't look closely, you won't find the clues.
But now Qian Junbao has actually been replaced by the "Fifth Moche" that has not appeared for a long time from the inside out!
He glanced at Lao Dao lightly, and then the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "Come on, this game, let's have a good time, it is not certain who will kill the deer!" ”
Before, the Fifth Mo Che promised Mo Ce that he would not appear for three months, and that he would retreat to recuperate.
When this body is well recuperated and the internal strength reaches about eighty percent, he will appear after he can use the disguise.
But it just so happened that Ye Qing made a potion that could enhance his internal strength, and after Mo Ce took it, he not only repaired all the internal injuries on his body, but also gave him twenty years of internal strength.
Just a little bit, the "Ice Divine Skill" cultivated by the Fifth Mo Che can reach the Great Perfection realm!
Although this fifth Mo Che is a famous gentleman in the capital on the surface, he is very proficient in two things, much more powerful than Qian Junbao and Mo Ce.
One is chess skills, he has received the guidance of famous teachers since he was a child, plus he is talented, and now he is more clever than him in Daewoo Dynasty chess skills have been counted on one hand.
The other thing is ...... More on that later!
I originally played chess with the old way, but I lost!
Qian Junbao doesn't have to let the fifth Mo Che appear to win back, in fact, winning or losing is just a trivial matter, of course, it's not for the sake of such a lottery.
It's the fifth Mo Che who wanted to appear today, and tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
He hasn't shown up for so long, and he's going to have to send someone a message anyway!
Otherwise, now they have a fairly stable life in Chongyang, but they will be broken by someone!

……………
Inside a somewhat gloomy room.
"Failed again, didn't you?" It was a man with a very old voice who said this.
It's just that although he is old, full of gray hair, he has no beard, and the skin on his cheeks is very fair and not deeply wrinkled, like carved from cold jade.
And the whole face also reveals a little bit of nobility.
Even a few wrinkles on the side of a pair of narrow and slender eyes are a little chilling to look at.
"Master, subordinates are incompetent!" A man dressed in black with his head bowed said respectfully.
"You were really stupid last time, why did you miss this time, didn't you say that Kwai Sanniang would be foolproof!"
The old man spit out these words coldly, and he didn't look at his subordinates, and his expression was very arrogant.
"I heard that it was ruined by an old way!"
"Don't make excuses, go to the county first, let the people go in a few days, and if you still fail next time, you won't even have to see me!"
"Yes."
After the subordinate went out, he stretched out his right hand and pinched the long nails on the little finger of his left hand, and then waved his hand to sweep all the things on the table behind him to the ground.
"A bunch of waste, where do we put our family's face?" The old man (the old eunuch) said with gloomy eyes.
His eyelids tightened, and he remembered that he promised a woman, but none of the people under his hands did it once.
I feel that tonight, when I go to her room, I will definitely have to eat a closed door again!
After so many years, I finally met a lovely and delicate person, but he is not fresh enough.
I don't like to see her pouting and unhappy when I'm doing errands.
It had been more than a month since he had accepted her into the door, and by chance he discovered that she had a hatred for the mistress of the new rich man in the town, the "Qian Mansion".
He didn't bother to know why she had hatred for that Ye Qing, and it was a very deep hatred, carved into his bones and rooted in his heart.
In order to make her happy and comfortable, he didn't mind doing something for her.
It's just that it may not be long since he returned to this town from the capital, and those subordinates are really not as good as those in the capital.
Eunuch Zhuang thought, although Qiao'er's temper was occasionally a little irritable and pampered, he was just a good mouthful.
In addition, he spent a lot of money and finally got it from the Zhang family, so naturally he is willing to coax her and satisfy her now.
How can I say that people are also serious people's yellow flower girls, people are charming and smart, and some talents are not.
In addition, the women he had seen before were not low-eyebrowed, except for his former masters, no one around him dared to give him a look.
At this moment, when he met a fresh one, his whole mind was on her.
But thinking of the person who will never really get her, my heart becomes more and more dark.
After calming down, he reached out and pulled a rope on the wall, and soon the crisp bell rang.
After a while, a little guy in brown clothes walked in and bowed his head respectfully: "Master, what do you command?" ”
"Send the red gold silk sari that you brought back from Tianzhu and send it to Aunt Jiu's room immediately!"
………………………………
"Qiqi Young Valley Lord, everything is ready. But even if you ride the Snow God Treasure Drive, it will take a day and a night to reach the valley, so is it time for you to set off? ”
A man in Tsing Yi walked up to "No Trace" and lowered his head and asked.
He didn't dare to look up at the man in front of him, just because of the messy scars on the face of the person in front of him.
The original young valley lord who was as rich as jade now has become this ghost, which makes him feel twelve points careful when facing him.
"No Trace", who was wearing a hat, nodded lightly, "You wait at Shiliangpo outside the city first, and I'll leave in half an hour." ”
"Young Valley Lord, the gang of robbers who caused you to be auctioned have been solved, how to deal with the remaining few injured ones?"
Glancing at him, the eyebrows of Traceless gathered, his expression darkened, and his indifferent and ruthless black eyes became even colder, "Kill them all, and the corpses are turned into bone water." ”
"Yes."
Traceless glanced up at the sky, thinking of where he was going, his indifferent eyes softened slightly, and then he strode towards the "Qian Mansion".
Before, he had planned to wait for his injuries to heal and then look for a chance to leave.
However, what he didn't expect was that after he recovered from his injuries the day before yesterday, the old butler asked someone to bring ten taels of silver.
Said that it was a coil for him, let him leave, and also returned the deed of sale to him, and from then on he was free!
Although he was surprised, he didn't think much of it, but offered to thank the lady who saved him.
However, he was rejected by the old butler.
It was the young lady's intention to let him go, and the young lady had ordered it, so she didn't need his thanks.
If he has a heart, he will come out to walk the rivers and lakes in the future, remember to be careful not to catch others and sell them.
In desperation, he could only take the silver tael, and after thanking the old housekeeper, he hurriedly left the Qian Mansion.
Then he managed to contact an old department based in Chongyang and helped him find a thousand-mile horse.
It's just that when it's time to leave now, he still feels like he wants to thank the lady in person and leave.
First, he is a person with clear grievances and grievances, and he will repay his kindness.
Second, he also had a doctor yesterday for a facial injury, but there was no way.
I overheard a doctor say that the lady who saved her was a miracle doctor, and maybe she had a way to cure her face.
When he saw his subordinates before, his vague and fearful gaze did not escape the sensitive [No Trace].
If he has to appear in front of everyone with such a face in the future, how will he lead his subordinates in the valley in the future, and where is his prestige and dignity?
And he has been missing for so long, the person who has been coveting the position of the valley lord, knowing that he has become like this, what kind of actions will he make?
In any case, he wanted an answer, even if there was little hope for a cure.
.....................
Ye Qing was holding a grapefruit in the kitchen, ready to teach Lin Qingqing how to make honey grapefruit tea.
This is the time when the grapefruit is just ripe, but it still tastes a little worse, and it is more bitter and sour than what she has eaten in later generations.
However, it is good to use it to make honey grapefruit tea.
According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", grapefruit has a sweet and sour taste and cold nature, and has the effects of regulating qi and dissolving phlegm, moistening the lungs and clearing the intestines, and nourishing blood and strengthening the spleen.
It can help digestion, remove phlegm and quench thirst, regulate qi and disperse knots.
And to make honey yuzu tea, you don't actually use yuzu flesh, but yuzu peel.
If wolfberries are added to honey grapefruit tea, it is more suitable for girls to take and has the effect of beauty and fire reduction.
Ye Qing instructed Lin Qingqing, who was holding the grapefruit peel: "Cut the grapefruit peel thinner, yes, don't have too many white parts." ”
"Is it okay to cut like this?" Lin Qingqing turned her head sideways and humbly asked.
"That's it."
"After shredding, soak in salt water for a while, so that it will not be bitter."
After Lin Qingqing was ready, Ye Qing observed the meeting and explained: "Put the water for soaking wolfberries and the grapefruit and cook it over low heat."
You don't need to cook it for too long, then add rock sugar and boil for a while, and when it becomes thicker, you can put it out.
Finally, wait for the grapefruit peel to cool before pouring in honey, because the temperature is too hot, and the honey will have no health effect! ”
"Okay." Lin Qingqing carefully wrote it down while operating carefully.
After staying with Ye Qing for a long time, she would occasionally say some words that she was not familiar with, but now she can understand the meaning.
Ye Qing also likes Lin Qingqing's apprentice very much, and sometimes finds that she doesn't need to explain too much to her, she can understand it thoroughly, it seems that she was born to eat the bowl of cooking skills.
"Master, it's done. Can I soak in water now? Lin Qingqing looked at the honey grapefruit tea in the jar and asked.
Ye Qing raised his eyebrows, looked at the jar and smiled: "You did a good job, this will taste better if you put it for a day or two, but now make a pot of tea and give it to me." ”
"Okay, do you want to help you send it to Qingzhuyuan?" She asked, looking back.
"I'll do it myself." Ye Qing shook his head and said.
After a while, Ye Qing walked to Qingzhu Courtyard with a pot of honey grapefruit tea, two snowy mooncakes, and three cups.
After putting down her things, she suddenly found that the chess game that Qian Junbao and Lao Dao were playing seemed to have changed a lot.
In this game of chess, it seems that "Qian Junbao" has the upper hand, and the old way is almost unable to parry.
She was a little surprised, but didn't pay much attention, and poured a cup of tea for each of them, and then a cup for herself.
After taking a sip first, she frowned, a little sour and slightly astringent, thinking that she should drink ice at this time to be comfortable.
"Dao Chief, you've lost." [Fifth Mo Che] fell and received a large piece of white from the other party.
Then he elegantly picked up the teacup and took a sip of honey grapefruit tea, the tea entered his mouth, slightly bitter and sweet, indescribably weird.
He was stunned, secretly thinking that Qian Junbao's taste was really special, but he still swallowed it quickly, but did not take a second sip.
