Rebirth in the Spirit World, the Goddess's Brilliant Counterattack
Chapter 79 Rose Harmony
Li Li hesitated for a moment, "What kind of flowers should I cut?" She knew nothing about the kitchen and had no idea what kind of flowers were needed to make flower scented cakes...
Grandma Lian handed the magic scissors to Li Li and patted her hands gently. "It doesn't matter. Cut whichever flower you like."
"Ok."
The old house of the Lian family is peaceful and quiet. During the New Year, only two fairy-like cooks and cleaners stay here. Passing through the deep vine corridor, the Lian family's magic greenhouse is hidden at the back of the house.
Although the greenhouse is not spacious, the flowers in it bloom poetically, ignoring the constraints of the seasons and competing to show off their fantastic colors in clusters and clumps, which are dazzling.
Madam Lian prefers orchids, while Mrs. Lian Xilai is fond of magic roses, which are rare varieties that require meticulous care.
Li Li held the magic scissors and wandered among the flowers, unable to decide which one to choose. Finally, she decided to pick one at random. There was a cream-yellow rose nearby. She waved it gently, and with a crisp "click", the rose fell into Li Li's hands.
After picking one flower, Li Li's eyes locked on the next one.
"Ah...what are you doing?!" A sharp question interrupted her actions.
Li Li turned her head and saw through the magic glass of the greenhouse, a girl in a white gauze princess dress, staring at her angrily.
"Who are you? Who allowed you to pick these flowers? Do you know the value of these flowers?" The girl was shaking with anger, and the bow on her head was shaking.
"How much is it worth?" Li Li asked doubtfully. She really didn't know much about flowers.
The girl was almost somersaulted out of anger. She dared to act recklessly without knowing anything. How ignorant and fearless!
"The Harmony Rose originated from the mysterious country Rguo. It is one of the ten most precious magic roses in the world. It is extremely rare, and you actually picked it like this!" The girl looked at the flower with heartache. It was such a pity. Her aunt would be heartbroken if she knew it.
Li Li examined the rose in her hand. It turned out to be so valuable? Could it be used to make magic flower cakes?
"No, you must explain it to me today! You flower thief!" The girl looked like a pufferfish with anger.
Li Li was at a loss for words. Flower thief? Maybe this girl has watched too many fantasy dramas.
"Lili, where are you?"
The voice that came was that of Grandmother Lian. Seeing that Li Li had not returned yet, she came to look for her.
"Grandma Lian, I'm here." Li Li responded quickly.
Old Madam Lian came over, looked at the girl, and asked, "Hey, Xiaotong, when did you come?"
The girl seemed to have found support. "Grandma, I just came in through the side door. You came at the right time. There is a flower thief here. She cut the flowers in the greenhouse."
"What are you talking about? What flower thief? That's so ugly. These are the ones I asked Miss Li to pick." Upon hearing this, Madam Lian's face darkened and she stopped smiling.
The girl obviously didn't expect that it was the old lady's instruction. She was speechless for a moment, "But... that is my aunt's favorite flower. If she knew..."
Aunt? Is this girl Mrs. Lian's niece?
"So what if you know?" Old Madam Lian's face darkened. "It's just a flower. No matter how precious it is, it's just one. There are so many flowers in this greenhouse. What's the harm in picking one or two?"
"Grandma Lian, I didn't know this flower was so precious. I'm sorry." Li Li felt a little guilty. "Or I can compensate Aunt Tan."
Lian Xilai's wife was named Tan Lin. Li Li had met her before. She was a gentle woman full of magic. Even when she picked other people's precious flowers, her heart was full of guilt.
"Can you afford it? This plant is worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins." Looking at Li Li, who was dressed in ordinary clothes and had no trace of magic, the girl couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.
"Herna, shut up! This is none of your business!" The old lady was really angry.
Herna looked at the stern expression of Old Madam Lian and dared not say anything more. She felt a surge of grievances in her heart. In the past, Old Madam Lian loved her so much, why did everything change when this young girl appeared?
She turned around, put on a smile and said to Li Li: "Li Li, come here, grandma will make you a flower spirit cake."
Flower spirit cakes? Herna felt dizzy. They were going to use flowers worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins to make flower spirit cakes? Wasn't this a blasphemy against nature?
Although Heerna was angry, she didn't dare to show it. She could only suppress her emotions and follow the two of them.
"This is the rose essence sauce that was made in advance. Add cooked glutinous rice flour and ground peanuts. Stir well and put it in the ice cellar."
"Now we have to make the dough. Use this flour with low magic energy, add refined sugar and magic lard. This is the most critical step. Then pour in warm magic water and knead it into a dough."
"The fermented dough should be evenly divided into small portions, rolled into ovals, and then filled with chilled fillings. After wrapping, poke a few small holes in it to release the magic aura, and bake it in the magic oven for about half an hour. It's done."
“Tear up the flower you cut and sprinkle it on the cake after it comes out of the oven.”
Old Madam Lian and Li Li were busy in the magic kitchen, saying they were working together, but Li Li just watched quietly from the side. Herna sat on the magic sofa, watching the harmony between the grandparents and grandchildren, feeling depressed.
More than half an hour later, the Hualing Cake came out of the oven freshly, plump and round, exuding an intoxicating floral fragrance. It looked soft and tempting, and even the old lady and Li Li couldn't wait to taste it. Well, it was wonderful!
Herna twitched her nose, salivating with a hint of guilt.
Mrs. Lian asked Li Li to taste it first, and then she returned to the kitchen to bake some more for those who came home late.
"What's so fragrant?" Tan Lin's soft voice came from the door.
Herna, who was fighting hunger, stood up suddenly and rushed forward, "Aunt, you are finally back."
"Xiao Na, why are you here?" The one who returned was Lian Xilai's wife, Tan Linyin.
"I came to play with brother Yalu, but he is not at home."
"What a coincidence! Lian Yalu and Jiang Cheng went to the magic horse farm."
Tan Linyin had no children, so she doted on her sister's daughter He Hena and treated her as her own daughter. Hena also often visited the Li family.
"Has Brother Jiang Cheng returned to Lancheng?" He Hena's eyes sparkled.
"Well, they just came back from the Jiang family's main residence in Beijing, and the two of them went out to have fun again." Tan Linyin smiled helplessly.
Jiang Cheng will return to the Jiang family mansion in the capital during the Chinese New Year. No matter what happens in private, all the members of the Jiang family must gather together and spend the Chinese New Year in harmony. This is the order of the Jiang family's ancestor, and no one dares to disobey.
Tan Linyin changed her shoes and went into the house.
"Auntie Tan." Li Li greeted her.
"Lili, you're here too? Why didn't you tell me in advance? There aren't many people at home today." Tan Linyin said in surprise. Although she had only met Li Li once, she liked this little girl very much, not to mention that she had a debt of gratitude to the Lian family...
