took the lead in settling the bill, and Bai Qiurui took Lan'er to continue shopping.

Although there was a beautiful Zhou Huaiyuan at the lunch meal, fortunately, the dishes in Zuiyun Restaurant tasted very good, and Bai Qiurui, who was full of wine and food, naturally left Zhou Huaiyuan behind.

Immediately afterwards, the two went to a few rouge gouache shops, Bai Qiurui did not have the slightest interest in ancient rouge gouache, mainly because these things were far less convenient than the world in her previous life.

Until she had almost visited everything, Bai Qiurui took Lan'er back to the house.

As soon as she entered the bamboo branch courtyard, Bai Qiurui began to humbly ask Lan'er for embroidery techniques.

Lan'er was full of thoughts that her young lady had a sweetheart, and she must teach her the best skills to her, so that she could embroider the best Jinpa.

With the help of Lan'er, Bai Qiurui first drew the line draft, and then learned to embroider.

For Bai Qiurui, who had embroidered cross-stitch in her previous life, ancient embroidery was much more difficult than cross-stitch.

But fortunately, she is not particularly stupid, and Lan'er can teach her every day, so for the next three or four days, Bai Qiurui practiced embroidery all day.

At first, it will still prick the hand, but after a day, Bai Qiurui is already very proficient in front and back needles.

In just three or four days, Bai Qiurui made rapid progress.

From the original embroidery of a simple leaf is crooked, to the back can be embroidered with a simple embroidery.

Lan'er watched Bai Qiurui's rapid progress, and couldn't help but start praising her for being smart and talented.

Bai Qiurui practiced the orchid embroidery on other cotton cloth dozens of times, and it was not until she was satisfied that she began to stitch on the ice silk cloth.

However, in the end, it is an expensive material, and the Jinpa of ice silk is not only cold and weak with tentacles, but also very delicate when pierced with a needle, without the slightest hook and hair.

Sure enough, there are expensive benefits.

Is this what is called banknote capacity?

Bai Qiurui was embroidering while thinking about what she didn't have, she looked at the orchid leaves left and finished embroidering, and couldn't help but show a smile that she had been relieved for a long time.

However, at this moment, a rough little girl in the small courtyard came back and forth, saying that a woman named Sui Hong was coming to her outside the door.

Hearing this, Bai Qiurui's eyes lit up.

I've been waiting for so many days, and it's finally here.

Bai Qiurui put away her unfinished brocade handkerchief, then quickly got up and followed the little girl's steps towards the door of the house.

When she arrived at the gate, there was a woman in a red power suit with a high ponytail standing outside the door, who was not Sui Hong.

"Sister Sui, long time no see."

Sui Hong also laughed when she saw Bai Qiurui: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I haven't congratulated my sister on getting her wish fulfilled." ”

Bai Qiurui knew that it was about the marriage contract of Ning Wangfu, so she smiled and led the person directly to her small courtyard.

"Is my sister's foot injury all healed?" Sui Hong looked at Bai Qiurui's feet, remembering that the little girl was still lying on the bed and couldn't move the last time she came.

Bai Qiurui was still very grateful to Sui Hong for still thinking about her injury: "Thank you, Sister Sui, the injury has already healed." ”

Sui Hong nodded when she heard this, and then she took a letter from her arms and handed it to Bai Qiurui.

"You know this, Brother Shen asked me to bring it to you."

Bai Qiurui had been looking forward to this for a long time, and now she was thinking about it, and the news had arrived.

Reaching out to take it, Sui Hong kindly reminded Bai Qiurui to open it on the spot.

Bai Qiurui was a little suspicious, so she opened the envelope and took out a thin piece of letter paper inside.

Unfolding the letter paper is Shen Yuan's sharp and handsome handwriting, she carefully looked at it from the beginning, looked at it and suddenly laughed.

Sui Hong watched her youngest daughter's delicate state at a glance from the side, and couldn't help but bless Shen Yuan and Bai Qiurui in her heart.

She could see with her eyes that Shen Yuan was an exception to Bai Qiurui's treatment, and she could also see Bai Qiurui's good impression of Shen Yuan, but she felt that the two of them were a match made in heaven, and they could be described as talented and beautiful.

As soon as Bai Qiurui laughed, she realized that Sui Hong was still beside her, she covered her sleeves and coughed lightly to restrain her smile.

It's just a serious face, but she still can't help but want to laugh in her heart.

Shen Yuan's letter briefly stated the follow-up of the Nanyue Temple case, and the guards of the Criminal Department he arranged had put all the monks in Nanyue Temple in prison.

And although they arrived at the underground secret room in the mountain behind Nanyue Temple in time, they were one step too late after all, and the dozens of men and women in it had all turned into bloodthirsty and flesh-eating living corpses.

Because they had received Shen Yuan's warning in advance, no one in the Criminal Department was injured, but after they had all the living corpses under control, they found the dead abbot of Nanyue Temple in the stone room.

Shen Yuan was still investigating the case with King Ning, and in the letter, Shen Yuan mentioned the two letters found in the abbot's meditation room of Nanyue Temple.

Bai Qiurui saw that Shen Yuan still had doubts and doubted the authenticity of the letter, so for the sake of safety, he kept the letter aside for the time being and was secretly investigating the authenticity of the letter.

Originally, these were nothing funny, until Bai Qiurui saw a paragraph at the end of Shen Yuan's letter.

The letter said that in order to cooperate with Dali Temple, he made an exception and lent the file records in the small attic to Bai Hong.

Then let Bai Qiurui, as Bai Hong's daughter, express her gratitude.

Bai Qiurui didn't know why, as soon as she saw this sentence written by Shen Yuan, she remembered that a few days ago in the study, she saw that her father was almost buried in the file record of the Criminal Department.

It turned out that Shen Yuan actually made an exception to lend the case file to his father, and Bai Qiurui originally thought that the two could borrow each other.

Seeing that Shen Yuan was a 'fair-minded' thank you gift on the envelope, Bai Qiurui began to use her brain.

What kind of dishes to make for Shen Yuan as a thank you gift this time?

She thought for a moment and then said to Sui Hong: "Sister Sui, go back first, and I'll bother my sister to come to me tomorrow, and I have some things to transfer to Lord Shen." ”

Sui Hong smiled and nodded, instructed Bai Qiurui to take good care of herself, and then got up and left.

Bai Qiurui sent people out of the house, and then immediately asked people to go to the street to buy the freshest mung beans and come back.

In the summer heat, if you talk about what kind of snacks, of course, it is a refreshing mung bean cake to relieve the heat.

After thinking about it, Bai Qiurui decided to make a box of mung bean cakes and bring them to Shen Yuan.

While the next person went to buy mung beans, Bai Qiurui returned to his small courtyard and carefully repaired the last two orchid petals on the ice silk brocade.

Originally, the orchids on this brocade only need to be embroidered with white silk threads, but in order to make the small orchids on the brocade look richer in color, Bai Qiurui uses three different colors of silk threads to set off each other in one go.

Therefore, this embroidered orchid will have three different color changes under different light and shadow angles.

One is pure white, one is moon-white in the sun, and the other is in the moonlit night, you will see silver orchids.

After a while, the next person had already bought all the mung beans back, and Bai Qiurui had already taken advantage of this time to embroider the brocade.

She found a white cloth and carefully wrapped Jinpa into her arms, and then Bai Qiurui carried mung beans to her small kitchen.

The preparation of mung bean cake is not difficult, and the main raw material is mung beans.

Bai Qiurui cleans the fresh mung beans and then puts them in a steamer and steam them for 20 minutes.

Lan'er has been seeing her young lady pondering embroidery for the past few days, and today she saw Bai Qiurui cooking again, so she curiously came to the side to watch.

"Miss has been learning embroidery these days, why do you suddenly want to make food again?"

Lan'er looked at Bai Qiurui, and wanted to persuade her young lady to continue to learn embroidery, but she still had a lot of embroidery skills that she hadn't taught her own young lady.

"I've embroidered a brocade."

Bai Qiurui's fluttering words shattered Lan'er's various imaginations.

Her dream of teaching her own young lady to be the most powerful embroidery master was shattered.

Bai Qiurui didn't look at the dejected head of the little girl next to her, she looked at the boiled mung beans, and quickly found a pot to scoop them up.

When the water was gone, only the cooked mung beans remained, Bai Qiurui began to find the simplest and smoothest small wooden shovel and began to crush the mung beans into mung bean puree.

When the mung beans have completely turned into mung bean puree, heat the oil, add the mung bean puree and sugar to the pan and stir-fry.

In order to ensure that the pot does not stick, Bai Qiurui has been holding the spatula and stirring constantly, which is also to prevent the sugar from stirring unevenly.

When the stir-fry was almost done, Bai Qiurui found a large plate and spread it out to cool.

Taking advantage of this time, Bai Qiurui found some red beans and put them in water to soak, and then steamed them in the pot, and made the red beans into red bean paste in the same way.

After the fried mung bean puree cooled, Bai Qiurui divided the whole plate of mung bean puree into small agents.

Lan'er was amazed when she watched from the sidelines, but Bai Qiurui directly treated the little girl as a coolie and directly asked her to join the work of making mung bean cake filling.

Flatten all the small agents by hand, then put an appropriate amount of red bean paste, and then wrap it and knead it into a ball.

When all the mung bean cakes are wrapped in mung bean paste, the next step is to find a mold to finalize.

Bai Qiurui couldn't wait to make the mold first, so she directly found a smooth and flat template and began to shape it by hand.

The first two were not very good, but as the hands became more and more proficient, each piece of mung bean paste seemed to be carved out of molds one by one.

When everything was finalized, Bai Qiurui looked at the boxy but extremely monotonous surface of the mung bean cake and thought about it.

She stared at the mung bean cake and thought for a long time, and suddenly had an idea, found a very thin bamboo stick, and painted it directly on the surface of the mung bean cake.

Due to her limited handicraft ability, Bai Qiurui painted simple things.

A simple pattern on all sides, and then she whimsically wrote a word on the surface of each mung bean cake.

After all the work was completed, Bai Qiurui found a delicate food box and put the mung bean cake neatly into the box.

Judging from the text of the mung bean cake at the top, there are exactly four big characters in total.

I, yes, thanks, courtesy.

Bai Qiurui looked at her masterpiece and couldn't help laughing, faintly expecting Shen Yuan's expression after seeing the content.

When the pastry was ready, Bai Qiurui found a small packaging box, folded the orchid brocade she had repaired and put it into the small box, and finally placed it just enough next to the edge of the food box.

The mung bean cake that is made to cool is tender yellow in color, and the hearts of people who watch it are warm. The sweet aroma of mung bean cake mixed with the sweet smell of white sugar emanates faintly, arousing people's appetite.

Bai Qiurui ate the two pieces of mung bean cake that were not perfect at the beginning and Lan'er one by one, and the sweet mung bean cake was soft and delicate in the mouth.

Just the right amount of sweetness and the effect of mung beans themselves to clear heat and relieve heat, all the heat disappears in one bite, and the refreshment revealed from the body.

The originally hot mood was suddenly dissolved because of this mouthful of mung bean cake, and the lips and teeth were fragrant, and the tip of the tongue was full of sweetness.

"Miss, your hands are so skillful, everything is delicious."

Lan'er ate the mung bean cake and praised Bai Qiurui with a mouthful, and before she could swallow the pastry stuffed in her mouth, she began to speak in a hurry.

Bai Qiurui rarely smiled proudly, and carefully covered the food box.

The finished mung bean cake can be stored for a few days, and there is no worry that it will spoil.

Just as he was busy with everything, Lan'er beside him suddenly spoke.

"By the way, Miss, it's the master's birthday in half a month, can Miss think of a gift to give?"

Bai Qiurui was stunned for a moment after hearing this, she remembered the plot of the original book, and suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.

In the original book, her father Bai Hong had a birthday between the case of King Ning.

And it was only after this birthday that King Ning's case was completely decided.

After that, the Ning Wangfu will cease to exist and will be destroyed overnight.

And then there are the plot points of Zhou Huaiyuan, the male protagonist of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion in the original book, and Bai Yueyue, the female protagonist of the original book.

At that time, Bai Yueyue had already used her means to attract Zhou Huaiyuan's attention, and her own original body, Bai Qiurui, still thought that Zhou Huaiyuan was loyal to her.

didn't expect that the two had already secretly communicated with each other, and she herself became Bai Yueyue's stepping stone step by step.

Thinking back on the plot before and after, Bai Qiurui raised her eyebrows.

This plot will soon reach the critical plot development time point of Bai Yueyue and Zhou Huaiyuan.

So, now that this plot has been broken by themselves, is it still possible for them to be together?

"Miss, miss, what's wrong with you?"

Lan'er's voice beside her brought Bai Qiurui back to her senses, she put away her thoughts and shook her head, signaling that she was fine.

"Miss, you haven't prepared much of a gift for your lord's birthday in previous years. This time it's different, it's the master's 10th birthday, why don't you prepare some handy gifts. ”

Lan'er saw that her young lady was now favored, and now she was talking positively on the side.

After the little girl next to her mentioned something, Bai Qiurui was indeed a little difficult.

She flipped through the memories of the original body, and found that the past gifts of the original body were really ...... It's hard to put into words.

Sighing helplessly, Bai Qiurui began to use her brain to think.

Now that I am not the original body, I have received the attention of my father, so naturally I can't even get a decent gift.

What's more, her own comfortable life now, in the final analysis, is because of her father.

This time it's the tenth birthday, so it's time to think about it.
