[Seven-five] Sunflowers are warm

There are still many trivial matters to be dealt with in the follow-up of the case, so Zhan Zhao is still very busy after returning.The murderer who killed Master Cheng was also arrested, and things were similar to what they inferred.Hu San and his gang followed Boss Cheng for money and killed him, and then they had internal strife during the distribution of the spoils, and Hu San was killed.Then the other two found out that there were no gems in the box at all, so they discarded the things in the cave and returned to Hongshi Village, only to be caught.The robbery and murder case was solved, but Boss Li's whereabouts were unknown. Now it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, with no trace.

After being busy for seven or eight days, Zhan Zhao finally took some time off, took some time, and went to see Bao'er with Xu Xiangyang.Bo'er has started to toddler and likes to be staggered by others.Seeing Xu Xiangyang coming, he smiled and walked towards her.Xu Xiangyang picked her up and smiled, "Good boy, Aunt Xu came to see you. Look who this is? Do you remember?"

Zhan Zhao grabbed her chubby little hand and shook it, "Bao'er has grown up a lot." She is taller and fatter, which shows that Guan Xu has taken good care of her.Guan Xu looked at Bao'er with caring eyes, and said with a smile: "My Bao'er looks good, and she must be a beautiful girl when she grows up. Tsk, when I think about being married by some brat in a few years, I feel so sad. Not comfortable."

Zhan Zhao laughed, "Brother Guan, at least it will be ten years later. Is it too early to worry?"

"Brother Zhan, you haven't become a father yet, so how do you know what it's like to be a father? A son and a daughter are different. The daughter is going to get married, and the son is taking someone home. Can you feel the same?"

Xu Xiangyang glanced at Zhan Zhao secretly, seeing that he was also looking at him, he quickly turned his eyes away and snickered.Bao'er squirmed in her arms and pointed at the butterflies in the yard. She smiled and carried Bao'er to catch butterflies in the grass.Seeing the two having fun, Guan Xu smiled heartily, "Miss Xu likes children, so she will be a good mother."

Hearing this, Zhan Zhao smiled and said nothing, he didn't think much about the future.Guan Xu didn't mean anything else when he said this. Seeing Zhan Zhao's slightly uncomfortable smile, he remembered the things between them. He chuckled and said, "Did Miss Ding go back with Hero Ding?"

"Well, go back."

Guan Xu heaved a sigh of relief, "I was shocked when I heard that she ran after you all alone, but fortunately she was safe."

Seeing Xu Xiangyang and Bao'er chasing butterflies not far away, Zhan Zhao felt a little lost.Living in the present, whenever the past is remembered, it makes him ache.How can there be no regrets?How can you say forget it?Say let it go and let it go?It's just packed up and pressed in my heart.As time goes by, no amount of resentment and unwillingness will be smoothed away.Xu Xiangyang has changed, getting along with him day and night, not to mention love [love], but gradually becoming like a family member.

She smiled, "She's acting so nonsense, I'm afraid she will be reprimanded this time."

Guan Xu also laughed, didn't he?Such willful behavior should be taught a lesson.Ding Yuehua is a sensitive person after all, so it's not easy to mention it.The two turned to talk about the case, Guan Xu's expression became more and more serious the more he heard it, and he even told Boss Li to run away!Now the wanted notice has been posted, but no news has been sent back.

When Zhan Zhao and Xu Xiangyang resigned, Guan Xu deliberately looked at Xu Xiangyang a few more times.That day Ding Yuehua came over angrily and scolded her, but every time he saw Xu Xiangyang, she looked quiet, docile, and well-educated, it was hard to imagine that she would do such a thing.Even if she has forgotten the past, from the point of view of her heart, she is still gentle and peaceful, neither arguing nor making trouble.If it is not scheming, it is really peaceful.

He could understand Ding Yuehua's reluctance, but he had to say that Ding Yuehua acted a little recklessly. No matter what, Zhan Zhao was already married to Xu Xiangyang.And what's the use of her getting angry with Xu Xiangyang in this matter?It all depends on how Zhan Zhao chooses.This time she went back, she was afraid that she would get married.It sounded like a pity, but in fact it was a matter of course. If she didn't get married, what would she think?

Looking at Bao'er crawling around on the grass, I thought, that girl full of grievances will never come back, right?Can't help but let out a long sigh, although she is a bit willful and reckless, she is still a good girl, I hope she is well.

In a blink of an eye, it is August and the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching.Xu Xiangyang doesn't have much interest in mooncakes, and Zhan Zhao doesn't like sweets, so he doesn't plan to make mooncakes, and wants to go out and buy some for the occasion.She doesn't plan to do it, but Mrs. Wang does. Her two children like sweets.Hearing that she didn't do it, he said he would do more for her.Xu Xiangyang asked her when she would do it, and she also went over to help.Sister-in-law Wang said with a smile that she came to help, and this year's mooncakes must be delicious.

Sister-in-law Wang was right. She came back later and thought about it. Since she wanted to make it, why not make snowy mooncakes for a change.But to make snowy mooncakes, you have to put them in the refrigerator. There is no refrigerator here. If you get a few pieces of ice and chill them, it will be fine.When Zhan Zhao came back in the evening, she nervously mentioned to him that she wanted some ice cubes.

"Bing?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled, she seldom asked him for anything, why did she mention such a strange thing today? "What do you want ice for?"

She was a little embarrassed, and whispered: "I want to make snowy mooncakes, so..." Would he think that she was too extravagant and wasteful, tossing people for a little food. "Yes, if it's troublesome, forget it,"

"Ice skin mooncakes?" Zhan Zhao was a little curious, and said, "Ice cubes are not difficult, when will you make them? Make more and let everyone have a try."

Xu Xiangyang was overjoyed, "In the future, I have an appointment with Mrs. Wang, and I will go to her to do it."

"Okay, I'll have someone deliver the ice cubes in the future."

On that day, when Mrs. Wang heard that she was going to make snowy mooncakes, she laughed and said that she was right.It was the first time Sister-in-law Wang heard about snow skin mooncakes, she couldn't wait, she urged Xu Xiangyang to make these first, she was not in a hurry.

In fact, ice skin moon cakes are not difficult, the key lies in the production of ice skin.Pour glutinous rice flour, clear flour, and sticky rice flour into milk mixed with vegetable oil and stir evenly, then steam in a pot, take it out and let it cool for later use.Sister-in-law Wang prepared all kinds of fillings, including lotus paste and red bean paste.The two of them worked together to form the stuffing into balls and put them aside for later use.Just as he was busy, someone knocked on the door outside, and it was Zhan Zhao who asked someone to bring ice.

Looking at the two big pieces of ice, Mrs. Wang was surprised and said, "Why do you need ice?" Xu Xiangyang smiled and said, "Snow skin mooncakes, how can there be no ice? Let's carry the ice in and put it away quickly, or it will melt."

When Xu Xiangyang came, he brought an old cotton jacket, now he took it out and wrapped it in ice cubes.But the ice cubes were much bigger than she expected, and a cotton robe was obviously not enough.Sister-in-law Wang also found Dynasty's old padded jacket, wrapped it in ice cubes, and covered it with a quilt.Looking at the ice cubes wrapped into a ball, the two couldn't help laughing, this ice skin mooncake is really time-consuming and labor-intensive.

After waiting for a while, the skin had cooled down, and the two began to make mooncakes.Wrap the fillings, put them into the mold and press out the pattern, so that a crystal and translucent snow skin mooncake is ready.Sister-in-law Wang looked at Huanxi, and held it in her palm to look left and right, "Oh, this is so beautiful, it looks like white jade, can this be eaten?"

"It tastes better after being chilled." Xu Xiangyang said as he took out the ice cubes wrapped in the padded jacket, broke them into small pieces and put them in a basin, and put the mooncakes in to freeze them.Although this effect is not as good as that of a refrigerator, it is better than nothing.

Snow skin mooncakes should not be stored for a long time, especially in such hot weather, and there is no refrigerator, so they can only be eaten immediately.When the mooncakes were all ready, the first mooncakes put in were almost ready to eat. The two children of the Wang family were the first to taste them and they all said they were delicious.Sister-in-law Wang said with a smile: "Moon cakes are expensive and must be chilled. Ordinary people can't eat them."

Xu Xiangyang also tasted a piece, it tasted refreshing and really good.It's just that the moon cake mold is a little too big. According to her, if it can be made smaller, one bite would be fine.Zhan Zhao told everyone to make more and send some to everyone, and the first one was to be sent to Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun.Put ice under the basket, put a plate of moon cakes on it, hold it with a bowl, and put another layer of ice on top.After loading two baskets like this, I called Yanzhen and asked her to deliver them.

Yan Zhen went by coincidence, Mr. Gongsun, Zhan Zhao and others were all in the study.Master Bao saw that she came in with two baskets of ice, and was very curious, "What is this? Why are you still using ice?"

Knowing that Xu Xiangyang is making mooncakes today, Zhan Zhao said with a smile, "Xiangyang said that she will make mooncakes with Mrs. Wang today, and this is probably the snowy mooncake she said."

"Oh? Ice skin mooncakes? That sounds fresh." Mr. Bao had never heard of this kind of mooncakes, and he looked forward to watching Yanzhen slowly peel off the crushed ice and open the dishes covered on it.A plate of jade-like moon cakes catches the eye, and the coolness brought by the ice cubes makes people feel refreshed and reluctant to touch it.

Mr. Gongsun admired, "Miss Xu is really ingenious, how did you come up with this method?" After admiring, she was puzzled. Miss Xu's family is not rich, and not everyone can afford ice in summer.Look at this moon cake, it's definitely not the first time to make it. Where did she learn this skill?Confusing.

Master Bao took a piece first, and invited everyone to come and taste it.Zhan Zhao took a bite and found that the filling was mixed with lotus seed paste and bean paste, so he couldn't help smiling.If the moon cakes are delicious, then it is not necessarily true, it is just a novelty for eating right now.I also heard that mooncakes with crust should not be stored for a long time. The two discs of mooncakes were divided, and each person ate them all.

Snowskin mooncakes are troublesome to make, so you just have to try something new.On the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, they still eat traditional moon cakes.Zhan Zhao had to go to the palace to be on duty during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Xu Xiangyang could only celebrate the festival by himself.Even though Zhan Zhao was not there, she still spent half the night in the courtyard admiring the moon.In my heart, I still hope that I can wait until Zhan Zhao, even if it is only for a short moment, it can be regarded as celebrating the festival with him and admiring the moon.

Feeling lost, suddenly thought of Ding Yuehua.Although Zhan Zhao is not here tonight, he is always by her side.Where is Ding Yuehua?How is she feeling at the moment?Although everyone avoids talking about it, it can be inferred from common sense that Ding Yuehua may not escape punishment after returning home, maybe he will marry someone soon.Zhan Zhao probably didn't know about it, but what feelings did he have in his heart?

Looking at the full moon above his head, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.As far as Yu Zhan Zhao and Ding Yuehua are concerned, they can only place their love on this bright moon, and nothing else.What about her and Zhan Zhao?Ask yourself, if he buried Ding Yuehua deeply in her heart, would she accept it calmly?He and her, so close yet so far away, separated by Ding Yuehua...
