Delicious Delicacy of the Demon Spirit

Li Ku'er originally thought that the plum tree sisters in the family should be happy to take care of the sunflower, but he didn't expect that the two fairies would make trouble together in a different way.

After eating the longevity noodles, Li Kuer went to work in the palace.In the morning, everything was as usual, only in the afternoon, He Weiran asked her to go to the fish market to buy two mandarin fishes, and said that after she bought them, she could go back to work.

Li Kuer felt strange, why was she allowed to go back early today?Asked again and again, He Weiran answered her: "I will leave the house soon, and I won't be there when you come back, so I don't have to do the work. Go back earlier, didn't you say that the vegetables in the fields should be harvested?"

"Oh... yes. But sister He, where are you going?"

He Weiran scratched her nose, and said with a kind smile, "What? Are you still looking at me? Don't ask questions and go quickly. By the way, bring your umbrella."

"Bring an umbrella? The weather is fine..."

"It's going to rain in a while, take it with you." He Weiran stuffed the umbrella into Li Kuer's hand, and pushed her out of the kitchen.

Li Kuer thought to herself: Sister He is really not quite right today... What are you doing out there?

I went to the fish market with a vegetable basket in my arms, as expected, but it didn't take long for the weather to change.It was still breezy and warm before, but in a blink of an eye it was cloudy.Seeing that the rain was about to fall, he hurriedly bought two plump mandarin fishes from Ah Liao's brother, and was about to rush back when he suddenly saw a big black cat hiding in a corner with a glinting eye.

When Li Kuer passed by, the big black cat's eyes disappeared immediately, and instead of running away, it raised its head and meowed at her.

"Hey, long time no see. Where did you go?"

The black cat set her sights on her basket...

"This is not for you to eat." Li Kuer always thought it was human, so he understood: "But I have dried small fish in the sun at home, you come back with me, and I will treat you to eat."

The big black cat circled around Li Kuer's feet intimately twice, then followed her away.

The rain finally fell, and big drops hit the street, the eaves, the leaves, and the paper umbrellas of the people on the road.Li Kuer also opened the umbrella, and ran to Prince Qiao's mansion with the big black cat.

As expected, He Weiran was not there, Xiaoqu said that Li Kuer had not been out for a long time, and she also went out, she did not explain where she was going, but she has already asked for leave, and fortunately, the prince and concubine also went out to the restaurant.

Li Kuer is still brooding about He Weiran's secret going out. Although he knows that he is being lenient, after all, no one can guess He Weiran's thoughts, but maybe he is spoiled because he is not used to her. Do things without yourself.

All the way home with a flat mouth, as soon as I got near my house, I could smell the smell of food wafting in the alley.Li Ku'er is rightly saying, who cooks so early, but with such good skills.After opening the courtyard door, Fang discovered that the fragrance came from his own kitchen.

Close the courtyard door and step into the square inch covered by the eaves.While putting away the umbrella, Li Kuer looked into the stove... He Weiran and Meihua were gathering in front of the stove to cook, while Ah Kui was sitting beside her beating eggs.

"Ah! Sister Ku'er is back! And the big black cat!!!" Seeing the black cat, Ah Kui immediately put down the bowl regardless of 21, and jumped and yelled over.The black cat was so frightened that it rushed into the main room next to it, and Ah Kui also chased after it, and immediately thought of a jingle of bells and palms.

Li Kuer didn't care about that either, she just looked at He Weiran in surprise: "Sister He! Why did you come to my house? Don't say a word."

"A few days ago, Ah Kui and Plum Blossom girl came to tell me that today is your birthday. Hehe, it's the two of them who care about you. Look at me, I don't even know this. We planned to celebrate your birthday, Make some delicious food, it’s been lively. Hey, I just didn’t expect you to come back so early, and you didn’t make the first important snack.”

Li Ku'er was very moved, and went into the kitchen to see the ingredients they prepared. The amount was not large, but they were very rich. I don't know how many dishes they are going to make.

Over there, Akui finally caught the big black cat, carried the black cat by the back of the neck and went back to the kitchen triumphantly, and said to Li Kuer, "Sister Kuer, sister Meihua and I will make you some snacks, sweet-scented osmanthus eggs , Sister He will teach us how to do it in a while."

"Really? You can tell it's delicious just by its name. I want to learn it."

The plum blossom over there said embarrassedly: "At first I wanted to cook a few dishes for you to eat, but I didn't get any results after practicing for a few days. Hey, I feel that my face is shameless, so I can only learn from it now while Miss He is here. Sell ​​now."

"Ah... so you guys have been learning the dishes for my birthday at home..." Li Kuer was moved and felt guilty again. In the morning, she still felt that Akui and Meihua were making trouble, and it turned out that everything was because of her.

"Papa." He Weiran clapped his palms: "Okay, Aoi, put the cat down, where's the egg I asked you to beat?"

Aoi was reminded by this, quickly let go of the big black cat, rubbed her head and smiled: "Oh, I forgot, hehe, just wait for me to stir it a few more times." Then, he picked up the cat that he had thrown down before. The bowl rattles and stirs.

The big black cat was free, and sneaked to Li Kuer's feet. Li Kuer gave it a few dried fish, and looked at Akui who was seriously beating the eggs over there, and asked He Weiran: "Sister He, Is that what you use to make sweet-scented osmanthus eggs? What's in it?"

He Weiran replied: "This dish has very simple ingredients, almost all of which are in Ah Kui's bowl. Seven egg yolks, eight taels of water, one tael of sugar, three taels of mung bean flour, mix well and it will be ready." .”

"Okay, okay, I've mixed it well."

Ah Kui put the bowl on the stove, He Weiran looked at it, nodded and said: "Well, it's ok, it's going to take a lot of effort from now on."

Meihua brought the bowl, eager to try it in her eyes: "You tell me, I'll do it."

"Okay. In fact, it's only three steps. Pour the oil, fry it, and start the pot." He Weiran handed her the bowl holding the oil in his hand: "The oil needs to be peanut oil, put it in the pot and wait for [-]% heat... By the way, it is Now, the egg liquid, after the egg liquid is put into the pot, will quickly agglomerate, after stirring with an iron spoon, beat it with the bottom of the spoon continuously, and press the oil into the mung bean flour, just like making a cake, and it will become sticky."

"Then how long do I have to fight?"

"Well... about half an hour, [-] times, it's a lot of hard work, hehe, but it shouldn't be a difficult task for you. Not only is it simple to beat up and down, but you have to rotate and push the inside The pimples have melted, I'll come, just watch." He Weiran said while demonstrating.

Li Kuer's eyes widened, watching the golden egg liquid in the pot change from water to bean curd residue, and then gradually melt into one body under the beating of the iron spoon and become full of toughness, which is really interesting and lovely.

He Weiran returned the iron spoon to Meihua, and said: "It looks like a boring job, but in fact, you have to pay attention to the heat. If the fire is too hot, the eggs will be mushy. Another thing, if the sweet-scented osmanthus eggs stick to the pan If the bottom of the spoon is sticky, add some oil, beat it one thousand and eight hundred times, and the sweet-scented osmanthus egg will be golden in color of laurel. It tastes soft, glutinous and sweet, and will not stick to your teeth.

Half an hour later, the sweet-scented osmanthus eggs finally came out of the pan, and a ball of brilliant golden color spread on the white porcelain plate, reminding Li Kuer of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.Akui rubbed Meihua's wrist and asked her if it hurt, Meihua shook her head and told Li Kuer to take a quick bite. Seeing Akui's appearance, her eyes were still fixed on the sweet-scented osmanthus eggs, anyone could tell what she was planning.

He Weiran took a knife and cut off a corner and put it into a small bowl for her. Not long after, a full moon appeared in the small bowl.Li Kuer picked up the sweet-scented osmanthus egg with the chopsticks and took a bite. It was really sweet but not greasy, waxy but not sticky. It had a soft texture in the mouth, a bit like rice cakes, but much softer and more fragrant than rice cakes.

In the evening, He Weiran cooked a table of delicious dishes, and invited Aunt Liu's family from next door. The big black cat also had a good time. He Weiran made fried brook fish for it, saying that it was for Li Kuer. .

It was windy and rainy outside, but seven people and a cat gathered inside. The food was delicious, and the conversation was lively. Li Kuer actually cried, cried and laughed, and felt embarrassed after laughing.

"I didn't cry? I'm happy. You are all so nice. I laughed so hard that I shed tears."

At night, Aunt Liu's family went back, and when they left, they thanked He Weiran for taking care of Li Kuer in the past year, as if they were Li Kuer's parents.

The big black cat also left. Li Kuer said that it was like a prodigal son, even if it was trusted by it, even if it was windy and rainy, it would not be able to keep it.He Weiran smiled, saying that the prodigal son knew how to repay his kindness, and just now he took away a big mouse from the kitchen.

Ah Kui and Mei Hua drank wine, one was dull and the other was sentimental, both of them were not quite normal, so they insisted on climbing to the roof to watch the lightning in the sky.Li Kuer raised her head and shouted to Mei Hua: "Thank you, sister Mei Hua, I'm starting to miss your sweet-scented osmanthus eggs." I can cook more dishes.”

He Weiran stayed, and Li Kuer was even more happy. They put out the candles and lay on the bed listening to the sound of rain outside.Li Ku'er nestled into He Weiran's arms, and whispered: "Sister He, I really like such excitement."

He Weiran hugged her tightly, with a gentle tone: "Man, come to this world accompanied by laughter and laughter, year after year, even if you live hard, on this birthday, you have to smile to be worthy of bearing your birth." People who suffer and rejoice over your birth. Kuer, happy birthday.”

Li Ku'er was silent for a long time, and finally said what she said from the bottom of her heart: "With Sister He around, I will be happy."
