"Miss, your hand ......" Angelica looked at Qiu Tian's faintly trembling right hand worriedly, Qiu Tian looked at Angelica and smiled indifferently, "It's out of the way!" Anyone who suddenly takes a big kitchen knife and slashes at the frozen sheep vertebrae will not be able to stand it. ”

Xiaoshizi put on an apron for himself, washed his hands and took down the kitchen knife on the knife rack again, and picked up a piece of tofu casually, "Chrysanthemum tofu, I can also bring it by hand." ”

Chrysanthemum tofu can be regarded as a famous dish that tests knife skills. First take a piece of lactone tender tofu and cut it into a cube, then make it into a cylinder, and then cut it horizontally into 9981 knives on the lactone tender tofu that can be broken into slag by touching it, and the same is true longitudinally, so as to form a needle-like tofu strip, and the cut tofu is soft and weak at the moment and hangs into a ball of paste.

Angelica saw that the tofu was cut and laughed, "Oh! The tofu is cut into a paste, which is really amazing. ”

"Angelica!" Qiu Tian saw that Xiaoshizi's knife skills were in the doorway, so he called Angelica, don't say more. Angelica obediently closed his mouth, but at this moment, Xiaoshizi was not angry, but called the two of them, "You guys are watching!" ”

Qiu Tian saw the kitchen knife in Xiao Shizi's hand scoop up the tofu block with a downward stroke, and quickly put it into a small porcelain basin filled with clean water.

Then the pebble carefully scooped up the formed tofu chrysanthemum with his hands, slowly put it into another porcelain white stew pot, and poured light yellow tea into the porcelain white stew pot.

In an instant, the lactone tofu chrysanthemum bloomed in the water instantly, and the petals swayed slowly with the water flow, leading flexibly. Angelica was dumbfounded, "This knife ......"

Qiu Tian casually threw the cucumber on the ingredient table to Xiaoshizi, "Cut a cucumber tart!" After cutting the cucumber on both sides, the cucumber turned into a long strip of intricate interconnected cucumber towers when he picked it up.

Qiu Tian watched Xiao Shizi effortlessly cut out tofu chrysanthemums, rotate cucumber towers, and even threw two sweet potatoes directly to him, "Cut into sweet potato chips that are connected like lotus roots, thin like cicada wings." ”

Originally, she was going to find a potato for Xiaoshizi and make a whirlwind potato chip after showing off her knife work, but there were no potatoes, only sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are a little less starchy than potatoes, but they are high in sugar and crispy overall, making them extremely difficult to slice, not to mention that they have to be sliced endlessly.

Just when she told Xiaoshizi to give up and found something else to cut for him, Xiaoshizi had already cut the sweet potato into pieces and opened them for herself like a lantern flower.

"Do you know how to carve?" She asked casually, and the little pebble that got up with a big kitchen knife began to put half of the winter melon on the cutting board to the top, and quickly carved it, just a stick of incense time, the small pebble carved the dragon and phoenix on the top of the winter melon in addition to the dragon and phoenix auspicious pattern.

Qiu Tian carefully touched the pattern, "Little pebble, it's okay!" ”

Xiao Shizi scratched the back of his head embarrassedly in the face of the sudden compliment, "Before entering the palace, my family was a famous blacksmith, but the flood flooded the village, my father and mother died tragically in a foreign land, and I was deceived into the palace again, and I was guilty, and I made myself look ......like this."

Speaking of this, Xiao Shizi smiled bitterly and wiped the blade with a rag, "Little master, don't use a kitchen knife to cut Yang's vertebrae in the future, it will be blunt." ”

"It's ridiculous. If the young lady doesn't use a knife to cut, can't she take an axe? Angelica laughed angrily at Xiaoshizi's words, but Xiaoshizi said seriously: "Yes! It is! To open this vertebrae, there are special bone-opening axes. ”

"Ahh Turns out there are bone-opening axes here, too? Qiu Tian came to his senses, and a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in his eyes, "Little pebble, can you help me get a set of knives?" ”

"This ......" Xiao Shizi was suddenly taken aback by Qiu Tian's 360-degree change in attitude, "It's not impossible, it's just that you need something." ”

"What is needed?" When Qiu Tian heard Xiaoshizi's words, she knew that her knife had hope, "I drew a sketch for you, can you make it?" ”

"Basically!" Xiao Shizi nodded, and the angelica on the side looked at Xiao Shizi, and said quietly: "Do you want Miss to ask Niang Niang to give the palace token?" ”

Angelica's eyes were as fierce as an eagle, Xiao Shizi was stunned, looked at Angelica with a weak heart, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out in his head, "No...... No ......."

"If you want to get out of the palace in the name of Miss, don't even think about it." Angelica viciously warned Xiao Shizi, Xiao Shizi hurriedly waved his hand, Qiu Tian watched the conversation between the two back and forth, and asked quietly: "In addition to going to the queen mother to ask for the palace token, where else can I get it?" ”

"Imperial Dining Room!"

"The Imperial Dining Room?" Qiu Tian frowned thoughtfully, "Then let's go there tomorrow and get it!" ”

Xiao Shizi sighed, poured cold water and said: "The stingy, jealous and jealous manager of the imperial dining room will not give it to us." ”

"Before I begged to go out of the palace to make a fish-killing knife, the chief manager said that my father-in-law who was a little vegetable washer, so ambitious, and imagined contaminating other father-in-law positions, so he punished me for washing the chicken coop in the imperial dining room for a month." Xiao Shizi recalled his past experience and sighed helplessly.

Qiu Tian smiled and buried herself in the side dishes needed for the sheep and scorpion pot, but as soon as she finished processing, Qiu Tian was taken back to the Pian Ran Hall by Mama Li, where she accepted a series of incense fasting, bathing and changing clothes, and praising female virtues......

During this period, neither the queen nor the second princess appeared, and the entire palace was quiet, like a breath of despair lingering.

The afterglow of the sunset in the sky slowly dissipated, and the night slowly fell like a veil, and the temperature plummeted in the cold winter at night, and it snowed heavily in the sky.

The windless snowy night pressed on everyone's hearts like a boulder, and some people should be happy and some people were sad about the original name and flipped the brand, but the happy people couldn't be happy, and she sighed with a sad face......

"Mama Qiu, hey, ......"

"Niangniang, the matter has come to this, and this is the only way to make a decision." Mama Qiu bowed her head to comfort the queen, and the queen smiled bitterly and pursed her lips, "Are you ready?" ”

"If you go back to Niangniang, the people, wine and follow-up arrangements have been arranged, please rest assured." Mama Qiu cautiously glanced around and replied, "As long as Your Majesty drinks that wine and avoids getting drunk, then you will ...... Niangniang."

The queen listened to Mama Qiu's words, nodded her head, glanced at the water drop clock in the hall, and asked, "Your Majesty should have arrived, right?" ”

As soon as these words fell, Fuquan's voice rose high outside the Luxury Fragrance Palace, "Your Majesty—arrived—"
