As soon as he went out, Li Yan sat down, looked at the candle flame that was about to burn out on the number of words, was silent for a while, and then ordered: "Go and light all the candles in the house." ”

Xiao Wu pushed Xiao Liu, glanced at her, and went to light the candle lamp himself.

Xiao Liu slowly stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Madam, Miss once said that the candle on this cake must first be made by the birthday star to make a wish and blow it out, so that for the birthday star, the next year will be healthy and auspicious." ”

Li Yan was about to pluck the hand of the brand, and then his face began to become unsightly, but he still nodded and said, "Then why don't you call him over and blow out the candles?"

"Yes, ma'am!"

Then, Ji Qingshui came with a bright face, but when he blew out the candle with his eyes closed and made a wish, he was about to start, but he was ruthlessly driven out by Li Yan again.

Xiao Wu's face when he went out was very clear, sad, angry, unwilling, and unhappy...... But there was no jealousy.

Well, I didn't have any cake to eat, so let's go to sleep. No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as news that he has a heart, and his sleep quality should be improved tonight, Ji Qingshui thought in his heart.

But just as he was falling asleep, there was a knock at the door.

Ji Qingshui frowned and lay on the bed without moving, and asked, "Who?"

There was no movement outside the door.

Ji Qingshui's eyes turned slightly, and a carp jumped up from the bed. I got out of bed and walked a few steps to the door, and pulled the door with both hands. There was no one at the door, only a large piece of cake on a saucer on the floor.

Looking at the flower made of cream on the top of the plate of cake, the look in Ji Qingshui's eyes softened.

turned around and closed the door, picked up the saucer on the ground and came to Li Yan's door, raised his hand and knocked twice.

"Who?" Li Yan's distinctive noise came from inside.

Ji Qingshui didn't squeak this time, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Sure enough, Li Yan, who didn't get a response, walked out and opened the door after a while. When I saw the person standing at the door, my eyes were glazed: "I don't go back to my room to sleep at night, what are you doing here to run to my mother?"

Ji Qingshui ignored her, directly waved her hand on the door frame, and entered the house.

"Hey, old bald donkey, do you want to be shameless? Did I say I wanted to invite you in?"

Ji Qingshui put the plate on the table and turned to look at the disgruntled woman behind him.

Decades have passed, and I can't imagine that the woman with a good face and an arrogant temperament is now stained with a few wisps of hoarfrost on both sides. And I am getting older day by day.

However, he did not grieve for his old age, for his heart and liver were growing with their age, and now they were almost sixteen.

Without their aging, how could their hearts and livers grow day by day.

remembered that night sixteen years ago, in order to prevent outsiders from knowing about her pregnancy and childbirth, the woman in front of her lay alone in the dark passage, biting her lip and not making a sound of labor pain, and gave birth to her heart and liver without the help of the midwife.

And he just arrived, and he only had time to cut off the umbilical cord connected to her body for Xin Gan'er.

He thought that for the woman in front of him who was still charming, his Ji Qingshui's heart was full of guilt and gratitude.

Li Yan was a little uncomfortable stared at by him, sat down in front of him, and looked at the plate of cake with a slightly unnatural expression.

But after a while, I saw that the man was still staring at her, and his expression became more and more ......

She couldn't sit still, so she slapped the table and said angrily at him: "What are you always staring at the old lady?"

Compared to her fiery temper at the moment, Ji Qingshui only smiled slightly: "Yan'er, thank you! ”

Li Yan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and wondered if this old man had taken the wrong medicine today, and inexplicably ran to her to say these inexplicable words.

"Today is my birthday, and my heart and liver are not here, so you can accompany me to eat cake. ”

"I've already eaten it just now, you have to eat it yourself, go back to your room and eat it. ”

Ji Qingshui ignored her words, and continued to take care of himself: "Xinjia'er said that on the day of my birthday, I must have relatives to spend it together, so that I will be healthy and smooth in the coming year, if you don't want to accompany me to eat this cake, do you mean that you want me to die early?"

When Li Yan heard this, he glared at him again, this man really couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth.

He raised his hand to pick up a piece of cake from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth, then another piece into his own mouth.

At the end, he took the time to say: "You old bald donkey, the older you are, the more nonsense you have." You don't dangle in front of me in the future, and my eyes hurt when I see you. ”

Ji Qingshui swallowed the cake in his mouth and didn't speak, but his eyes were full of smiles when he looked at her, this duplicitous woman, this temperament has really not changed for decades, as in the past.

Green Dust Temple

Su Qingmo looked at the man in front of him who was playing a scoundrel and kept rolling her eyes.

"Liqing, can you still be reasonable?" It was so late in the day, and he even asked her to go to the kitchen to make a cake for him?

"This palace has always been very reasonable, Su Qingmo, the unreasonable person is you. Why do you make that birthday cake for others, but not for this palace? Su Qingmo, you don't seem to have recognized the identity of this palace!"

Su Qingmo sighed: "You also know that it is a birthday cake, is it also your birthday today?" Besides, I know that you are a noble national teacher of this Great Heavenly Empire, but even if you are the Jade Emperor, you have to be reasonable, right?"

Li Qing listened to her words, and her face turned dark: "Su Qingmo, this palace said that this is not the case!" This woman really wants to be angry with him, isn't it?

"Which one is that, can you make it clearer? I'm really sleepy, okay?" With that, Su Qingmo raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned.

"You...... When you made a cake for that person today, didn't you think about preparing one for the palace? Su Qingmo, whether today is the birthday of the palace or not, your attitude is also very problematic. This palace doesn't care, this palace must eat the kind of cake you made today, you go and make it for this palace now. ”

"Is there a problem with my attitude? How many times have I repeated it to you, it is a birthday cake, and today is not your birthday, if you want to eat it, in the future, on the day of your birthday, I will also make one for you, do you have to get up again and go to work?" Su Qingmo was a little impatient, why couldn't she make sense with this person? If it was daytime at the moment, it would be okay to say, but now it is late at night.

At this point in the past, she was already lying on the bed and sleeping, but now he wants her to go to the kitchen to make him a cake with sleepiness, if you really want a cake, you can't make it in an hour, he doesn't want her to sleep tonight, does he? Can he be reasonable and considerate of the physical condition of the pregnant woman?

"How do you know that today isn't Hongu's birthday?"

Su Qingmo's yawning action paused, and the little hand covering her mouth was also lowered. Seeing him frowning, after a while, she suddenly laughed and said: "Liqing, how can you be like a child? For the sake of food, you can even make up such lame lies! Do you want to make a face?" Today is also his birthday, is it possible? Lie and don't make a draft.

Li Qing looked at her expression of disbelief, her face that was getting more and more ugly gradually returned to calm, the corners of her mouth hooked up a cold smile, and she turned around and walked out of the room without saying a word.

She was right, he did lie, and today was indeed not his birthday, but what was his birthday?

In the past, when he was with the master, he never had a birthday, and he only learned today that everyone must eat something called cake on their birthday, so that they will be healthy and smooth in the coming year.

Joke, he has never had a birthday in all these years, and he has never eaten the kind of cake she made, isn't he also healthy and healthy?

But seeing her busy in the kitchen for her family, a longing arose in his heart, longing for her to be busy for herself on her birthday, making the kind of pastry called cake.

But what day was his birth?

When he blurted out that today was also his birthday, his heart was relieved, and he felt that he didn't know what his birthday day was, so it didn't hurt to set it today.

But when she looked at him with that disbelieving look, he actually felt that the little humble thought in his heart was nowhere to be hidden!

Only then did he realize that since when did he become like this? In order to get a little more care from her, he even used lies.

Such a self made him feel strange and ashamed in front of her.

He felt that he should be quiet for a few days, and think about what kind of mood he would have to face this woman who made his heart flutter next. Think clearly, continue to be friendly with her.

Su Qingmo looked at his back as he suddenly turned away, and was stunned for a while, she thought that he would continue to ask her to make him a cake in his domineering tone. She was even thinking that if he spoke again, she would do it for him.

But who knew that he turned around and left, and his back when he left looked so lonely.

And the cold smile on the corner of his mouth when he left actually made her heart throb.

Could it be that today is really his birthday? Su Qingmo frowned and began to think about this question carefully.

It was late at night, but in a small kitchen in the Qingchen Palace, it was still scorching by candlelight.

Qingyi stayed outside the kitchen door, while Su Qingmo sat in front of the stove to rest, adding one or two sticks of firewood to the stove from time to time. She finally got everything ready, and then it was up to her to see how well the cake was baked.

The firewood burning in the stove was crackling, and the red fire shone on Su Qingmo's little face, which looked as red as a red apple, and it was beautiful in a flash.

After half an hour, Su Qingmo estimated that the time was almost up, and then he withdrew the sparks from the stove.

Get up and go to the stove, pick up the lid of the pot and inspect the color of the cake baked in the pot.

Looking at the bright yellow and delicate cake, it shows that she has a good grasp of the fire just now.

After the whole cake is removed from the pan, it is placed in the normal mouth to cool.

A strong smell of cake was heard, and the cold wind that blew in casually through the window drifted out of the small kitchen and dispersed in all directions. Seduced the few secret guards who had to stay in the dark, and one drooled.

Qingyi, who was guarding outside the door, smelled the smell, couldn't help swallowing his saliva, poked his head in, looked at Su Qingmo, who was busy beating eggs, and said, "Princess, the dim sum you made is really fragrant, I don't know if you can reward your subordinates with a few pieces to satisfy their hunger after a while?"

Su Qingmo looked at him, his eyes were full of calculations, and he hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "Do you want to eat?"

"Hmm. I want to eat!" Qingyi nodded without hesitation.

"But there is no free white food to eat in this world. ”

When Qing Yi heard the words, he immediately flashed into the kitchen, came to Su Qingmo, and patted his chest: "Then I don't know what the princess needs her subordinates to do for you?" As long as the subordinates can do it, they must do it!"

"Hmm," Su Qingmo nodded. After glancing at the amount of egg whites in the basin, he began to put a few tablespoons of sugar in it.

Then he took a deep basin, poured the prepared fresh milk into it, slowly added the egg whites, grabbed seven or eight chopsticks and stuffed them into Qingyi's hands, and said to him: "You start stirring it now, the speed should be slowly accelerated, remember that you have to stir in one direction from beginning to end, and you can't change the direction halfway." ”

"The subordinates understand. Qing nodded and began to stir.

Su Qingmo began to pour the remaining laying hen white into it little by little with his movements, and added white sugar to it from time to time.

Maintaining an action like this, it didn't take long for Qingyi to feel that his wrists were a little weak, and his forehead was covered with fine sweat, and the movements on his hands gradually slowed down. Xindao: Sure enough, if you want to complete the matter of a good princess, it is really very difficult.

Su Qingmo had been observing the foam in the basin, and when he saw that he was slow, he urged: "Haven't you eaten enough?" If the action is faster, if the cream foaming is not good, it will affect the taste of the cake. You hold on for a little longer, and you'll be fine in no time, and when the cake is ready, I'll give you a big portion. ”

Qing Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his subordinates moved a few times faster.

Half an hour passed, and a square cake was baked with a creamy outer layer and decorated with various flowers and fruits.

Liqing on the side looked at the fruit slices on the cake, which were placed on it by Su Qingmo in a coordinated style. It makes people feel a little appetizing at first glance.

After finding a place for the last purple grape, Su Qingmo clapped her palms, looked at Qing Yixian and said, "How is it?

Qing Yiyi praised with admiration: "Princess, it is indeed very powerful." May I ask the princess, is this cake specially prepared for the master?

Su Qingmo's face was slightly unnatural, and she pursed the corners of her lips and said, "Why do you talk so much? Who said I prepared it for him?" After speaking, he picked up the cake and walked out.

Qing Yi was a little surprised, he had heard some of the conversation between her and her master in the room before, could it be that he really misunderstood?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Su Qingmo, who had already walked to the door, actually stopped, turned to him and ordered, "Hey...... That one...... The temperature seems to have dropped a lot tonight, you go and call your master, and say that the fire in the room is not burning enough, let him hurry over and take a look, but don't freeze me. ”

Qingyi's eyes lit up, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Yes, princess, my subordinates promise to bring this serious problem to the master." ”

"Get out!" Su Qingmo's face was a little awkward when he stared at him, scolded him, turned around and left.

When she returned to the room, she put the cake on the table, and then found a scarf to cover the cake, and then felt that this was the cake she had made for him, and it was not unsightly, why did she cover it?

She put away the scarf, and began to think about the surprise of seeing the cake after he pushed the door open for a while, and her heart beat a little fast, and she wanted to sit down, but after sitting for a while, she stood up and began to circle back and forth in the room.

Ten minutes passed, and the closed door was not pushed open.

Twenty minutes passed, and the closed door was still closed.

Soon half an hour passed, but Liqing still didn't come......

Thank you Xixi for the flowers, today Yuanzi has a cold and headache, probably contracted when he accompanied Yuan's father to hang water a few days ago, or it may be that the weather is too cold, and Yuanzi didn't pay attention.

In short, the weather is changing now, so you must pay more attention to your body, and don't easily reduce your clothes because of a little heat
