Chapter 221 Super Sweet Tomatoes!
Chapter 221 Super Sweet Tomatoes!
"Master, did you still count on making me a cake last time?"

On this day, Hou Hou suddenly came to ask Qin Yang.

Qin Yang was stunned. He always liked to release satellites. He told a few people that he was going to make cakes for them, but he often forgot. This was the first time someone came to ask.

He laughed and said, "Of course it counts!"

"Then I want to eat cake today!" Hou Hou said with a smile.

Qin Yang didn't understand why, but he was always kind and easy to talk to his own people. When the other party asked for it, he did promise the other party, so he said, "Yes, I'll do it for you now."

Seeing that Houhou was still standing there without moving, he asked inexplicably, "Are you free to do now?"

Today is not a day for taking a rest.

With her hands behind her back, Wan Wan said with a coquettish smile, "Today, my family is on leave."

"Ask for leave?" Qin Yang blinked and suddenly understood. "Could it be your birthday today?"

He remembered that when he described the deliciousness of cakes to Houhou, he mentioned that in some places, on birthdays, instead of eating longevity noodles, they would gather with relatives and friends and eat a cake together.

He also talked about blowing out candles to make a wish.

Wan Wan looked away embarrassedly, Qin Yang was even more surprised by her rare embarrassment.

But think about it, this girl is not a good-tempered person, even the people Qin Yang summoned through the system have their own emotions, once the other party is provoked, it is really annoying for this girl to play with her temper.

"I'll go and see if the tomatoes are ripe, and I'll make you a tomato cake when they're ripe." Qin Yang said suddenly.

tomato?
Hou Hou still remembers when Qin Yang planted the plant, at least a month before it matured.

"Did the master use a special method to cultivate it?" Hou Hou asked curiously.

Qin Yang replied: "It is true that some special means were used."

He didn't say it was because he wanted to eat tomatoes earlier, so after getting an extra bottle of nutrient solution, he mixed it with water and poured it on the tomatoes grown in the backyard of the Wangfu.

It's only been three days, and the tomatoes, which can only be harvested in a month, are ripening quickly.Even if he didn't make cakes for Houhou, he would probably pick a few himself tonight.

He led people to the open space reclaimed at the back, and found a row of pergolas, full of greenery, dotted with many red fruits.

The fruit farther away is blue, or there is no fruit at all, which is the seedling frame that has not been moistened by the nutrient solution.

"Which one do you like to eat, you pick it yourself." Qin Yang said very generously.

Huanwan was not polite and went directly to choose.

She lifted her jade hand slightly, and picked the one that looked the most pleasing to the eye first.

Hold it in the palm of your hand to watch, and you will see this fruit called tomato, which looks rather crystal clear and cute, ruddy, and the skin seems to be very thin, when you press it lightly with your fingers, the flesh inside is plump, making people feel very happy just looking at it. cute.

"Why, just picked a few fruits?" Qin Yang picked a circle by himself and put it in the basket in the hands of his servants. When he came back, he found that Houhou had only picked a few fruits.

Hou Hou said: "I don't know if it's good or not, but if it's good, I'll pick more, and then you won't be able to bear it!"

Qin Yang smiled and said nothing.

But the remaining tomatoes picked from the backyard are about two thousand catties.

These are ripe tomatoes, they can be stored for a few days at most, Qin Yang said directly: "Let the whole house eat tomatoes together tonight!"

He said again: "Invite Mr. Zhang too!"

When Zhang Yunji came over, he saw that the king was making cakes with Miss Houhou.

The cake is already in shape, white and tender, it looks strange and makes people feel a little bit twitchy.

The sweet taste even made Zhang Yunji a little surprised. Maybe another king invented this thing, right?
When Qin Yang saw him coming, he asked him to sit down beside him. After a while, he took the cake that was completely done and placed it in the middle of the table.

One candle and six small candles were inserted on the cake at the same time.

Zhang Yunji watched in astonishment as the king lit the candle with a torch, and asked in puzzlement, "My lord, is this a sacrifice?"

"This is a birthday cake." Qin Yang said seriously.

"Birthday cake? What do you mean? The cake you eat on your birthday? Shouldn't you eat longevity noodles?" After hearing this explanation, Zhang Yunji became even more puzzled.

Qin Yang explained to Zhang Yunji the explanation he had given to Houhou.

I thought Zhang Yunji would think this explanation was too far-fetched, but I didn't expect Zhang Yunji to fall into deep thought.

After a while, he readily agreed: "This way of celebrating is also good!"

Then he said: "So we can share this cake together later, can't we?"

"...Yes." Qin Yang replied after being speechless for a while.

So, when the food came, Qin Yang asked Houhou to make a wish on the birthday cake.

Hou Wan clasped her hands together in front of her chest with a sense of ritual, closed her eyes, and silently made a wish.

After a while, he opened his eyes and blew lightly towards the front.

puff!
The candles on the cake go out.

Qin Yang handed a small knife to Houhou.

Hou Wan personally cut the cake into more than a dozen pieces.

There was a fork and a small plate next to it. Qin Yang forked a piece into the plate, took a bite, and nodded.

The top layer of the cake is dotted with small bits of tomatoes, chewing together with the cream cake, the taste is really sweet and sour.

Super sweet tomatoes!

The taste is sweeter than any one he has eaten in the past, and he has been obsessed with it for so long!
Satisfied Qin Yang suddenly heard another wish that Houhou mentioned not long ago.

So he said generously to Houhou: "Since today is your birthday, I will give you another birthday present!"

Wan Hou's eyes brightened immediately, and she said with a charming smile, "Master, what gift is it?"

"I was developing a mask a few days ago. I use it every other day to keep the skin moisturized! And it has a whitening effect! Didn't you say before that after you came to Youzhou, the skin was a lot dry, and the summer It’s too sunburnt, is your skin tanned? I’ll give you the mask, you’ll see the effect after using it three times in a row!”

"Really!" Houhou was really overjoyed this time!
As a great beauty, she also cares a lot about her appearance!

However, the Northland is different from the Southland. The weather is dry all year round!
Even though she is naturally beautiful, her skin is getting rougher day by day, which really bothers Houhou a little bit.

Unexpectedly, this matter made the king take it to heart!

Dawang also gave her a mask as a birthday present!

If it wasn't for Zhang Yunji being here, she probably couldn't help hugging the king and kissing him!
However, because of the presence of outsiders, her excitement only lasted for a moment before being suppressed by her.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"This is the best birthday present I've ever received!"
