Bai Qiurui didn't care about what she had to say to the little girl at the moment, since she came back from the Criminal Department to recuperate for two days, the injury on her foot was almost healed at this moment.

Speaking of which, it was the doctor Li invited by Shen Yuan who had exquisite medical skills, and his skills were much higher than the doctor who came to diagnose her pulse when she was injured at the beginning.

The prescription brought back from the criminal department and the powder in the small porcelain bottle, Bai Qiurui only insisted on applying it for two days and drank some decoction with the prescription.

Putting aside the book she was reading, Bai Qiurui got up from the bed, put on her shoes and socks and prepared to walk out.

Seeing this, Lan'er hurriedly stopped her movements: "Hey, Miss, the injury on your foot is not healed yet, and you can't get out of bed now." ”

The little girl really cared about Bai Qiurui, and at this moment she babbled and said: "Miss, when you just came back, Mrs. cried when she saw your injury, and she told me not to let Miss run around no matter what." ”

Bai Qiurui smiled and knocked on the little girl's head, then lifted the injured foot, turned her ankle clockwise, and turned it counterclockwise to show Lan'er.

"Silly girl, see for yourself, your young lady's foot injury has healed!"

Lan'er was also happy when she saw this, seeing Bai Qiurui turn her ankles and face as usual without the slightest pain, she no longer stopped her from getting out of bed at the moment.

For the past two days, she has been reading in bed, and Bai Qiurui has not dressed up. At this moment, she was going out, so naturally she couldn't go out with her clothes and messy hair, so she asked the little girl to change her clothes and comb her hair again.

Bai Qiurui was in a good mood today, and she rarely chose a red streamer Jindee smoke skirt.

Her complexion is already white and tender, and she is wearing a red dress at the moment, looking at her blown-up and breakable skin, white and red, pure with a hint of charm and coquettishness, as attractive as a red rose.

Her long black hair was pulled up with a red begonia flower, long amber tassels fell between her temples, and the peach blossoms on her face were more delicate than the flowers that bloomed in this spring and summer.

Dressed up like this, the people in the mirror are so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off, and even Lan'er next to her looks straight at Bai Qiurui, and two big words 'beautiful' are written in her eyes.

Bai Qiurui stood up on the stool in front of the dressing table, and his figure was curling.

The golden butterfly on the red smoke skirt is vivid, as if it will spread its wings and fly in the next moment, and the tassels in her hair are swaying with her figure, and the streamer is shallow and extremely smart.

"Miss, you look so good in your dress."

Lan'er looked at Bai Qiurui stupidly, and her two eyes wished to be attached to her.

Bai Qiurui couldn't help but laugh when she saw this, and then a chestnut knocked on the little girl's head, knocking her soul back.

"What is this called, is it possible that your young lady is ugly if she doesn't dress up on weekdays?"

Lan'er covered her head with a smile, and hurriedly opened her mouth to defend: "It's the slave who said it wrong, Miss, you look good if you don't dress up, but you look better when you dress up." ”

Bai Qiurui glanced at her with disgust and said with a smile: "Poor mouth." ”

After grooming and dressing, Bai Qiurui took Lan'er to the small kitchen in the courtyard first.

She hasn't cooked for her father for a long time, and today is a good day, she wants to make a dish for her father to taste, and by the way, ask him about the case of Ning Wangfu.

When she arrived at the small kitchen, Bai Qiurui thought for a long time, she looked at the early summer season, and an idea moved in her mind, and decided to make an afternoon snack - lotus cake.

The case of King Ning's Mansion is about King Ning's intention to get involved in imperial power and kill Zhongliang, isn't this just a contrast to the lotus cake she made?

After thinking for a moment in her heart, Bai Qiurui nodded with satisfaction, today she will make lotus cakes.

It is not difficult to make lotus cakes, and now in early summer, there are already early-maturing lotus seeds sold on the street.

Bai Qiurui asked people to buy some fresh lotus seeds, and she herself prepared the 'petal' part of the lotus cake in the small kitchen.

The ingredients for making flower petals are now available in the kitchen, and Bai Qiurui can do it directly.

She first found two large porcelain bowls and poured the same amount of flour into them, then poured some warm water into the first porcelain bowl, added an appropriate amount of lard, and began to stir and knead.

Lan'er's eyes were straight when she was watching from the side, and she opened her mouth wide and couldn't speak for a long time.

Miss put lard in flour...... What will this make taste like?

"Wait a minute, I'm going to make these doughs into petals, and then put them in an oil pan to fry, and only with lard can they become crispy."

Bai Qiurui explained with a smile while mixing the dough, and when the water and oil dough was ready, she took the lard and put it into the other half of the flour.

The second white flour is not warmly watered, and it is kneaded directly by hand to form a dry puff pastry.

When the water-oil dough and dry puff pastry are ready, the lotus seeds bought by the next person also arrive.

Originally, dried lotus seeds were used for lotus crisp, but now in this time and space, dried lotus seeds cannot be stored all year round, so Bai Qiurui had to settle for the next best thing and chose fresh and tender lotus seeds in summer.

However, it is precisely because the lotus seeds are fresh that the step of steaming the lotus seeds is omitted.

Bai Qiurui directly put the lotus seeds and lotus hearts into the water to cook, and then asked Lan'er to crush the ripe lotus seeds into a puree.

Taking advantage of the time when the little girl was obedient and busy, Bai Qiurui was not idle.

She wraps the finished puff pastry dough in the water and oil dough, and then carefully closes the mouth to prevent the dough from breaking.

Roll out the dough into a rectangle, fold it into three layers, recycle it again, roll it into thin slices and fold it into three layers.

Finally, the dough is rolled into thin and uniform slices, and then the round embryo is carefully made, and the petals are completely ready.

Lan'er's movements are swift, the petals made by Bai Qiurui, and the little girl has already pressed all the lotus seeds into mud.

Bai Qiurui took a small bowl of lotus mushrooms and instructed the little girl to go to the stove to make a fire.

When the pot was hot, Bai Qiurui put cooked lard in the pot, sensed the temperature in the pot, and when the oil temperature was four layers hot, she immediately poured the sugar into it.

Stir-fry the sugar in the oil pan until melted, and Bai Qiurui poured the toothy lotus mushroom into the pot.

The crystal clear white syrup is poured into the lotus mushroom, which is as white as snow, and the fragrant lard is stir-fried twice, and the attractive fragrance is already exuded.

With the stir-frying, the lotus mushroom in the pot slowly turned a slight yellow, which is the appearance of the stamens in the lotus crisp.

When the time came, Bai Qiurui added a little more sugar and continued to stir-fry.

By the time the lotus mushroom soaked in syrup in the pot and the freshly added sugar are mixed and fried in the non-stick pan, the stamens of the lotus crisp are ready.

The next step is to wrap the stamens, wrap the prepared round dough with almost the same amount of lotus mushroom, and then close the mouth.

Wait until the small smooth dough is lined up on the cutting board.

Bai Qiurui asked Lan'er to start another pot of oil, and she picked up a sharp kitchen knife and ruthlessly cut each dough into five petals.

When the oil in the pot was slightly hot, Bai Qiurui used a shovel to hold a lotus crisp embryo and slowly put it into the oil pot.

The white, tender and smooth dough is immediately fed into the hot oil pan, and it begins to bloom slowly.

Bai Qiurui carefully controlled the lotus flowers blooming in the oil pot, and when the flowers were fully bloomed, the petals of each layer were clearly separated, and then she quickly fished out the flowers to control the oil.

By the time the prepared dough was fried into a blooming lotus flower, the whole small kitchen was already filled with a strong fragrance of lotus seeds, and there was a sweet and crispy smell when you sniffed it.

Lan'er came out of the stove, and when she saw the lotus flowers blooming in the white porcelain plate, her little face was full of surprise and love.

"Miss...... This flower ...... Can you eat it? ”

The little girl stammered, she had never seen such a beautiful food, it was so beautiful, she was a little reluctant to eat it.

Bai Qiurui made a lot of lotus cakes, so she smiled and gave her one at the moment, so that the little girl could taste it.

The lotus crisp that just came out of the oil pot is like water and hibiscus, which is beautiful and moving.

Between the golden petals, the silky yellow stamens, and the tender green lotus heart of the lotus seed are mixed in it, and it is a small lotus canopy hidden between the lotus stamens that is not yet ripe.

It has not yet been imported, and the unique fragrance of lotus crisp is sweet, as if it is tempting to kiss the fragrance.

Lan'er took the lotus cake on the plate and couldn't help but look at it again and again, and she was reluctant to swallow it several times, and Bai Qiurui, who provoked her, couldn't help laughing.

In the end, Lan'er took a bite hard. The crispy petals of the sweet lotus mushroom, only one bite, the little girl was full of praise.

The outer skin of the crispy slag is loosened, and the internal force is a sweet and refreshing lotus mushroom, and you can't stop it at all.

"Miss, you are so good, the dim sum you make is delicious and beautiful."

Lan'er stuffed a mouthful of lotus crisp in her mouth, and her mouth was still stained with ghee residue, and she didn't forget to praise Bai Qiurui.

Seeing this scene, Bai Qiurui smiled slightly, she found a food box with four lotus cakes in it, carefully closed the lid of the food box, and walked towards the study with Lan'er.

Along the way, Bai Qiurui recalled the case in the original book about King Ning framing Zhongliang and getting involved in imperial power.

She remembered that at the beginning of this part of the plot in the book, Bai Qiurui, who was in her original form, had already met Zhou Huaiyuan, and the two were at the stage of mutual affection.

And during this time, it was recorded in the book that the original person learned about the case from Zhou Huaiyuan.

The cause of the case was that Zhou Yuancai, one of the six departments of the central government, accepted bribes in private, embezzled the imperial court's silver, and was even more ruthless and oppressed the people.

In the end, a woman whose family was killed by Zhou Yuancai did not hesitate to risk her life to sue the emperor, and the emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

As a result, Zhou Yuancai raided his house and was imprisoned, and according to the report of the people who searched his mansion.

In Zhou Yuancai's extravagant courtyard, a top-secret letter was found, which involved various crimes committed by King Ning, which triggered the case of King Ning's mansion.

The specific situation, Bai Qiurui is not very clear, and she will not know the clue until she meets her father Bai Hong.

When Bai Qiurui came to the study with the food box, Uncle Li, the housekeeper outside the door, stepped forward.

"Second Miss, how is she doing? The master is in the study, Miss please. ”

Such a respectful and respectful attitude, compared to the previous obstacles, is simply a heaven and an earth.

Maybe it's because Bai Qiurui is now the future princess of Ning Wangfu, or maybe it's because Bai Hong's study that has always been forbidden for others to enter only has a special case for Bai Qiurui.

In short, Bai Qiurui no longer thinks about specific reasons, as long as the housekeeper doesn't block her way.

At this moment, Uncle Li not only did not block Bai Qiurui's way, but also thoughtfully led her to the door of the study and took the initiative to inform her.

"Master, the second lady is here."

Bai Qiurui heard a 'come in' from the study, and then pushed the door into the room with a smile on her face.

"My daughter has seen her father."

Bai Qiurui bent her knees, her movements were gentle and demure, and with the bright and moving red goldbutterfly skirt she wore today, Bai Hong's original frowning brows stretched a lot.

He glanced at Bai Qiurui, and only felt that his little daughter was becoming more and more beautiful and delicate.

"The injury on your foot has only been recuperating at home for two days, why didn't you have a good rest and ran out."

Bai Hong looked at Bai Qiurui with a slightly dissatisfied expression, but his tone was full of love, as if he was a loving father.

Bai Qiurui smiled mildly when she heard this: "The injury on my daughter's foot has been much better, thanks to Lord Shen, he invited a doctor with superb medical skills to treat his daughter, but it was already well in a day or two." ”

Bai Hong nodded when he saw this, and then he glanced at Bai Qiurui with a somewhat complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something to her, but he didn't think about how to speak.

Bai Qiurui saw all her father's expressions in her eyes, she knew what her father wanted to say, but it was just about the marriage of Ning Wangfu.

Hiding the emotions in her eyes without a trace, Bai Qiurui looked unaware, and walked to the table with the food box lightly.

"Daddy, my daughter was sick a few days ago, and now I'm going to make some novel snacks for you to taste."

Bai Hong now likes his little daughter more and more, the little girl can make new and colorful snacks every time, and the taste is exceptionally good.

The most important thing is that every time he eats a snack, he can always think of the case he is investigating, and he can always find a way to solve the case.

"Oh, what kind of novelty did you make today?"

Bai Hong's eyes swept over the food box, and saw Bai Qiurui open the lid and slowly take out a plate of 'lotus' from inside.

The moment he saw the lotus crisp, the surprise on Bai Hong's face was no less than that of Lan'er, and his sharp eyes were solemn on weekdays, staring at the 'flower' in the white porcelain plate for a moment.

"This ...... Is this a lotus? ”

Bai Hong had imagined many novel dim sums, but he never thought that his little daughter would bring out a plate of lotus flowers from the food box.

This not only refreshed his insight, but also made him unbelievable.

How did you make such a beautiful dim sum?

The moment the lotus cake is served, the sweet fragrance of fresh lotus seeds wafts out. The original hot oil exudes a rich aroma when it is cooked, but now it has cooled for a while, and only the faint fragrance remains.

It seems to make people take a boat in the lotus pond in the early morning and summer, and the strong fragrance of lotus flowers fills the whole body. It seems to be out of the water hibiscus, and the dust is not clean.

"Daddy, this is my daughter's new dim sum, called: Lotus Cake."
