After I wear the book, I use the food to attract the attention of the big guys

Today is a fine day, the sky is cloudless.Neither of them brought a donkey cart, so they came here empty-handed.The sun shone brightly on the market, a little dazzling.The more elegant girls wore veiled hats, and some stalls on the side of the road also set up long umbrellas to shade them.Therefore, Chi Qing wearing a bamboo hat is not abrupt.

Yes, Chi Qing is wearing a bamboo hat.The long brim of the hat covered most of her face, and if she hadn't forced it to go up, she would never be seen.

She was wearing a dark cloth and was half a step behind Xie Niannian. At first glance, she looked like someone walking on the street.

There is no imaginary group of people shying away, and no one looks around at every step. It is just an ordinary outing for shopping.Xie Niannian felt a little lost.

She felt like someone who hid a treasure, and worried that the treasure would be stolen when she took it out, and felt lost when no one saw it.

It's not right, it's not right.Xie Niannian took care of his own concerns, the expression on his face changed several times, and he didn't even have time to look at the roadside stalls.

"What are you?" Chi Qing, who was still following behind, saw her absent-mindedness, thought about her words, and then said, "So bitter and bitter?"

Xie Niannian stopped, forced himself to remain expressionless, and then turned sideways to meet Chi Qing's gaze.

However, she couldn't control her expression well, and when she saw Chi Qing's eyes, she couldn't help laughing again: "I was thinking, if there is a chance, I must let others know how good you are."

"Few people would think that I'm a good person." Chi Qing's eyes stayed on Xie Niannian's dimples: "You are big-hearted, so you are not afraid that I have some ulterior motives?"

Xie Niannian obviously didn't listen to Chi Qing's words, and continued to walk forward, with a smile on his lips: "If you really have any ideas, you will knock me out on Bailu Mountain. Why do you have to go around in such a big circle? Another send Me, I’m staying at my house again. What are you trying to do, you want me to cook delicious food?”

Chi Qing followed, not in a hurry, but just half a step behind Xie Niannian: "It's really delicious."

"Oh, I just think you're very nice, very nice." Xie Niannian said frankly, showing off in her tone that she didn't even notice, she turned around and walked into a house without looking back at Chi Qing's expression after she finished speaking. Grain store.

When the owner of the grain and oil store heard that Xie Niannian had much more, he enthusiastically introduced all kinds of flour and freshly squeezed oil to her.

Xie Niannian picked out the right flour and oil for the boss to wrap it up, and Chi Qing took it over as soon as it was wrapped.

Xie Niannian was not too polite, let Chi Qing carry it, and went to buy sugar, red beans and beets by himself.

After buying the materials, both of them had their hands full, and they didn't have time to go to other stores, so they were ready to go home.

The two chatted about family affairs while walking, most of the time it was Xie Niannian who said, and Chi listened, and the time on the road passed by like this.

It was already evening when we got home, Xie Niannian simply made dinner, and after eating with Chi Qing, he was ready to start making shortbread.

The ingredients of the shortbread are roughly the same, which saved her a lot of time.

Although the materials are simple, it still takes a lot of effort, not to mention that there are not so many convenient tools now, and she has to try many things by herself.

After she arranged the things to be used, Chi Qing found a random place, brought a chair and sat and watched.

Xie Niannian doesn't mind at all that someone is watching when he cooks, but he feels lonely if he is the only one.

First, prepare the filling.Now that the fillings are not so rich, Xie Niannian chose the simplest bean paste.Because I thought that I might fail many times, I simply boiled a large pot of red beans.

Enough is enough, and the soft boiled red beans can be mashed into bean paste quickly.It's just that Xie Niannian had a bitter face while frying the bean paste.

The iron pan of Xie Niannian's family cannot prevent sticking. To prevent a large pot of bean paste from sticking to the pan, you have to stir it constantly.However, the red bean paste is really put in too much, and it becomes dry after frying for a long time, and the sugar is too sweet.Xie Niannian had no choice but to grit his teeth and pick up the spatula with both hands to turn over the bean paste.

Chi Qing saw that Xie Niannian was struggling, as if she wanted to use all her strength, she got up helplessly and walked to her, took a spatula to stir fry for her.

Xie Niannian breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Chi Qing holding a spatula in one hand, looking decent, extremely relaxed, gritted his teeth: "People's physiques cannot be generalized."

Then he muttered a little aggrievedly: "Am I too weak?"

Xie Niannian's rare disappointed tone attracted Chi Qing to look over.

"You can't say that, I practiced since I was a child, so of course it's different from you." Chi Qing slowed down his speech: "Every lady in the capital is actually not as strong as you."

"That's right, cooking still requires some strength." Xie Niannian's emotions came and went quickly, and he started to cock his tail again after hearing Chi Qing's words, completely ignoring the words "everyone's lady".

As soon as he was in a good mood, Xie Niannian remembered his plan for the afternoon: "Chi Qing, I want to learn some self-defense methods, do you have time to teach me?"

"Well, good." Chi Dumping agreed without thinking too much.

"Then do I need to practice my strength first? Squatting or something?" Xie Niannian said and put some sugar in the bean paste.

"The disparity in strength can be made up by skills." Chi Qing paused: "You should practice more balance."

Somewhat confused, Xie Niannian looked at Chiqing with confused eyes.

But she said slowly: "You fall easily when you are scared."

In an instant, he remembered the countless times he had fallen in front of Chi Qing, and Xie Niannian realized that he had also become the heroine who fell on the ground in the book.The heat on her face started to rise, and she pretended to be ferocious and grabbed Chi Qing's spatula: "Okay, it's fried, you go on and sit!"

Chi Qing didn't say anything else, went back and sat down obediently, but just took another look at Xie Niannian's bright red earlobes.

The red bean paste filling is ready, Xie Niannian tasted a spoonful, it is delicate and soft, sweet but not greasy.The next step is to prepare the water and oil skin and pastry.

Fortunately, Xie Niannian had already prepared a lot of lard, which is completely enough now.Use beetroot juice to dye the watery skin, and then wrap it in the prepared pastry.Repeatedly flatten and fold, and after a few times, it can be used to wrap red bean paste.

The wrapped semi-finished product is cut with a rice knife with a knife, and then it is put into an oil pan for frying.

Xie Niannian finished heating the oil, and took a few deep breaths in front of the stove.

"What?" Seeing her nervous face, Chi Qing asked one more question.

Xie Niannian put the lotus flower cake into the oil pan, while thinking: "Oh, I haven't made it for a long time, in case the car overturns"

"Rollover?"

"It's just a failure, it can't be done well." Xie Niannian kept staring at the movement in the pot.

While the oil was splashing, she gently moved the petals with chopsticks, and the lotus blossoms slowly bloomed, but the petals were stuck together, and the layering of the lotus could not be seen at all.

Xie Niannian picked up the lotus cake and stared at it expressionlessly, as if he could see a flower.

Chi Qing also looked at it, she had never seen a real lotus flower cake, so she could only judge by Xie Niannian's expression.

It seems to be a failure, she thought, but before she could say any words of comfort, Xie Niannian picked up the lotus flower cake and ate it in two or three bites.

Wiping the cake residue from the corner of his mouth casually, Xie Niannian chewed the "failed product" in his mouth, and said vaguely: "The stuffing is good, maybe the meringue is not done well."

After finishing speaking, he started to knead the dough and wake up on his own.When the new puff pastry is ready, put it back into the frying pan.

Picking up the pot this time, the layers are there, but the petals are too few, which is not good enough.

Xie Niannian took a closer look, and before Chi Qing could stop her, she saw her swallowing the lotus cake again, with half of her face bulging from eating, she wiped off the cake crumbs on her hands, and continued to prepare new pastry.

This has been repeated several times, either because Xie Niannian thinks the petals can't be opened, or it doesn't look good enough, or the taste is not right.

Most of the semi-finished products went into Xie Niannian's stomach, and when Chi Qing finally felt full for her, the new lotus flower cake was ready.

The pink petals are layered and spread out like a lotus flower. Although the middle is filled with red bean paste, it still can't stop its beauty.

Chi Qing saw that Xie Niannian finally stopped eating it, and the finished product was really good-looking, so she said: "If so, you can really get a good price."

Xie Niannian suddenly raised his head, as if he just realized that there was a second person in the kitchen.

It was completely dark outside, and without a timer, Xie Niannian didn't know what time it was, but she felt that it should be quite late now.

Seeing her looking out the window in confusion, Chi Qing guessed that she must be thinking about the time, and she made the calculations in her heart: "Moyue Choushi."

"Ugly time!" Xie Niannian was taken aback by Chi Qing's answer, it was already past midnight.

It's okay to stay up all night by myself, even with Chi Qing to accompany her so late, she said a little embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I was too involved, and I forgot the time for a while."

Chi Qing said indifferently, "No problem."

Xie Niannian brought the finished lotus cake to Chi Qing's eyes, and looked at her expectantly.Compared with the original lotus cake, Xie Niannian made it one size smaller, which is more convenient to eat.

Chi Qing took a small bite, the puff pastry had distinct layers, and the bean paste filling was just right.But the taste of the lotus cake is second, and the beauty is its biggest selling point.

On the Shangsi Festival, literati, inkmen, poets, romantic talents gather together, and such dim sum can be worthy of the banquet of Qushui Liushang.

Watching Chi Qing eat two or three bites, Xie Niannian returned to the stove, ready to make crabapple crisps.

For other things, she doesn't have that much perseverance, except cooking food, which she has been tirelessly pursuing.

Seeing that she wanted to continue, Chi Qing said helplessly: "It's too late, let's go to bed tonight."

Xie Niannian blinked. In the past, once he overturned his car, he would like to forget about food and sleep until he got it right.Now that she lives with Chi Qing, she really shouldn't just care about herself anymore.

She knew that Chi Qing actually slept very lightly at night.Probably because her sense of hearing is too sensitive, the sounds that ordinary people can bear can feel noisy in her ears.

The way these shortbreads are made is similar, Xie Niannian is not worried at all that the car will continue to overturn tomorrow, she tidily packs her things and prepares to wash up and go to sleep.

Before returning to the house, she suddenly pulled Chi Qing's sleeves, her sparkling eyes were full of anticipation: "I heard people say today that someone will set off fireworks by the Hanjiang River on the day of Shangsi, do you want to watch it with me?"
