Chapter 30: The Birthday Cake Is Made
Xie Jiayao's chest continued to rise and fall in the chair.
Xie Wanyu cried and told everything that had just happened.
After listening to this, the faces of the three of them were different.
On Zhang Qing's thin face, the clouds were gloomy.
"Your eldest brother is going to take the silver to the Qinglou!"
Xie Jiayao's sleek, swarthy face said angrily.
"Your eldest brother said some time ago that he was going to marry that peach in the Qinglou!"
"Said it was for five taels of silver to redeem the peachy body!"
Xie Wanyu stopped crying and said with a pale face.
"Big brother, this is a ghost! How can you go to the Qinglou woman as a wife! ”
"Mother, father, let's hurry up and stop him, otherwise our family's reputation will be ruined!"
turned his head to Li Xiaojun and explained, took a thick coat and put it on.
"Xiaojun, you stay at home well, then you are not allowed to go!"
After saying that, he took his father and mother and went out in a hurry.
Li Xiaojun looked at the empty room and stood for a few seconds.
hurriedly went out of the room and ran towards the place where my sister-in-law left.
Li Huaisheng, who was far away in Taihe City, naturally couldn't have known these things.
I guess he will be angry in the future.
Early morning.
A ray of sunshine fell on Li Huaisheng's handsome face.
The glare of the sun made him feel less sleepy.
Shake your head and rub your eyes.
Dressed and washed, and went out in good spirits.
There is an important thing to do today, and that is to make a three-tiered birthday cake.
Li Huaisheng looked at the busy maids, and the servants put up lights everywhere.
Rather carefully get out of the way.
for fear of running into them, so as not to delay the speed of their work.
He staggered to the large kitchen of the Sun Mansion.
There were twenty or thirty people busy inside.
Picking, washing, cooking, stir-frying......
All kinds of semi-finished products and finished delicacies are placed on the large table in the middle.
From time to time, servants and maids came to carry them away.
Everyone was busy with their own business, and they looked lively.
It shows the grandeur of Sun Ziyi's grandmother's 80th birthday today.
Li Huaisheng walked to one with a strip of white cloth tied on his head, and his hair was gray.
Dressed in black and short brown, he was next to a fifty-year-old uncle.
"Uncle Zhang, boy, think about asking you, are the ingredients for making the cake ready?"
The gray-haired Uncle Zhang was instructing the people in the kitchen.
How to make these delicacies of the mountains and seas, the process is like walking.
Do those, then those...
The demeanor of a general who is quite instructive.
Hearing someone next to him, he quickly turned his head.
When I looked at it, it was Li Huaisheng.
Hurriedly hugged his fists and said in a harmonious voice: "Li Gongzi, everything is ready!" ”
"It's all in the kitchen that's just for you!"
Li Huaisheng met Uncle Zhang yesterday under the leadership of Anan.
The head chef in charge of Sun's food and drink is amazing.
The management experience is also abundant.
Anan told Uncle Zhang that Li Huaisheng was specially invited by the third young master to make cakes.
Thousands of instructions are not allowed to snub Li Huaisheng, and this is a polite scene.
Otherwise, it is estimated that Li Huaisheng will come alone today.
Uncle Zhang probably won't be able to bird him, and as the head of the Sun Mansion, he is also quite arrogant.
"Thank you Uncle Zhang, then you are busy, the kid will not bother you!"
Li Huaisheng politely hugged his fists and thanked Uncle Zhang.
"Li Gongzi, old man, I want to see the magic of this cake."
"Can I take a look?"
Uncle Zhang didn't think that Li Huaisheng could make anything better.
I want to see if he has the real material.
Li Huaisheng said without hesitation.
"Okay! But let's move all the ingredients here, I'll do it in this big kitchen! ”
"It also opened the eyes of everyone here."
He saw the suspicious eyes of Uncle Zhang and more than a dozen people in the kitchen.
I immediately decided to let them see how good the cake they had made.
Break their doubts.
After all, sometimes showing one's talents can block some people's faces.
Uncle Zhang hurriedly ordered a few people to move the materials over.
Li Huaisheng rehearsed the three-layer cake in his heart.
Not a single detail was spared.
Soon the materials were moved and placed in the center of the large kitchen.
Li Huaisheng hurriedly stepped forward to check the materials and tools.
Flour, eggs, milk, sugar, vinegar, oil, fruits, simple whisks...
Uncle Zhang watched him check these and couldn't help nodding secretly.
From time to time, someone in the kitchen also kept an eye on him.
Li Huaisheng looked at the materials and prepared them.
Get moving.
The first thing to do is to make three cake bases, which are large, medium, and small.
Holding twenty or thirty eggs, the yolk and egg liquid are separated.
Hold it in your hand with a simple manual whisk.
Li Huaisheng paused, his expression extremely serious.
The action is meticulous.
It didn't take long to get the large, medium and small models of raw cake embryos.
Next baking, there is no oven, you can only settle for the next best.
Use a well-sealed steamer to get it up.
Li Huaisheng began to make cream.
This time, with a manual whisk, it was very easy to make.
The hands are not very sore either.
Uncle Zhang looked at the three cake embryos made by Li Huaisheng, and couldn't help but light up.
There is such a peculiar pastry method, this Li Gongzi is really hidden.
The rest of the kitchen was slowly drawn in.
The busy kitchen has become a little lighter.
Li Huaisheng looked at the viscous and lubricated cream that came out.
I couldn't help but look happy.
Because the cream made this time is better than the one in Chenjia Village.
With the cream ready, he began to slice the fruit, and a lot of fruit was sliced.
When everything was done, I hurriedly went to the steamer to check it.
Before I knew it, two or three hours had passed.
The steamer is full of aromas, and the whole kitchen becomes extremely fragrant.
Li Huaisheng was sweating profusely, and his back was soaked with sweat.
He stood in front of the steamer, and his eyes flashed.
The three cake embryos were quickly removed.
The smell in this kitchen is a little stronger.
The best ones are made while they are hot.
He didn't care to look closely, and quickly picked up the blade and sharpened the cake base.
Uncle Zhang smelled the fragrance of the kitchen, and looked at Li Huaisheng's eyes more and more affirmatively.
The rest of the kitchen swallowed their saliva, it was so sweet.
You can't help but want to try it.
Li Huaisheng smeared the shaved cake base with bamboo slices with cream.
Three down five divided by two, all right.
Start stacking them on top of each other, from bottom to top.
The order of large, medium and small is very beautiful.
Then sprinkle the sliced fruit on top one by one, and close the gaps in each cake base.
Finally, place a large peach on top.
Li Huaisheng wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Looking at the cake in front of him with an excited face.
"The first three-tier birthday cake of the Great Qianchao is complete!"
