Chapter 106 Dried plum vegetable cake (3)
"In today's funeral customs in the south of the Yangtze River, is the high stool next to the coffin a long stool or a short stool?" Wen Mingtang looked at Lin Fei and asked seriously, "I saw the custom in Chang'an City these days. Stool, I don’t know the Jiangnan generation..."
"Short stool." Lin Fei said lightly, "I have been to Jiangnan, which is slightly different from Chang'an."
Wen Mingtang was suddenly taken aback when he heard the words, and said "Oh".
Looking at the thoughtful look of the girl, Lin Fei paused for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "Your ex-fiancé is not suitable for you."
The girl nodded in agreement, her eyes flickered slightly, as if she was thinking about something, after a moment of pause, she said, "I think so too."
Lin Fei saw this, and said again: "I have never been in contact with him, but seeing him as a person, he is sentimental and cowardly, and he seems to have no responsibility."
The girl nodded again, paused, rubbed her chin, and said, "More than that, it's quite shameless."
The dream that has troubled her for a long time, although she had guessed it from letters from "Mingtang's younger sister" one after another, it has not been confirmed in the end.
Right now, Lin Fei's words confirmed one thing for her. The "son" mentioned by the two servant girls who killed the original owner in the dream is probably the talented Ye.
She closed her eyes, and she could probably guess the experience of the original owner.
After bumps and bumps, she managed to get out of the palace and was unaccompanied, and coincident with the letter that was the only one thinking about her, so she went to the south of the Yangtze River, and then met the sentimental and cowardly Ye Da... wit.
She didn't feel any unnecessary emotions in the girl's heart in the dream, and she didn't have any feelings for Ye Dacai.
She could imagine the situation when an unaccompanied and helpless girl went to the south of the Yangtze River and met the passionate Ye Dacai. The girl in the dream had a young appearance, so it's not surprising that she would not let this former fiancée go with the disposition of that talented Ye.
If you like it and are responsible, that's fine. Or, if you know you can't marry a girl, it's not bad to let her go.
But while he refused to let him go, he also provoked a powerful daughter.
Knowing that he provoked the daughter of a powerful and powerful man, he should let her go, but he refused to let her go. He even resorted to a trick of "fake death". Anyone with a sense in the mansion would not agree to such a thing that would cause disaster. He himself is not the one and only master in the mansion, and he doesn't blame the people in the mansion for taking action.
Seeing Wen Mingtang's calm expression, Lin Fei turned his gaze away from the letter and glanced at the incense burner.
Wen Mingtang was about to wait for him to ask about his family's past, but Lin Fei suddenly asked her: "What would a girl who lost her parents suddenly, with no one around her, do?"
Are you asking her? Wen Mingtang was stunned when he heard this, recalled the memory of the original owner, and said: "In the beginning, I would secretly hide in bed and cry, but later on I only dared to keep my sadness in my heart, and I didn't have time to think about it, because I had to work hard to survive. "
In life, what ordinary people seek is to live?
Lin Fei frowned, obviously not very satisfied with her answer.
Wen Mingtang saw this, thought for a while, and said: "Everyone is different. If Lin Shaoqing wants to ask others, he shouldn't ask me."
Lin Fei paused when he heard the words, thoughtfully, and said: "It is indeed different. Your family suffered disasters, and she is different."
Who is she referring to? Wen Mingtang looked at Lin Fei curiously, but Lin Fei didn't say much, just shook his head, turned and left.
As Wen Mingtang thought, Lin Fei was indeed questioned when he returned to the Jingyunhou Mansion.
"Why did you come back so late again?" Mrs. Jing Yunhou Zheng finally waited for someone, and went to Lin Fei's yard deliberately, and said, "The family is eating, but I'm not here."
"Didn't I tell someone to come back?" Lin Fei heard the words and said, "There is a case at hand to deal with."
"Case case, why not celebrate the festival because of the case?" Mrs. Zheng glanced at Lin Fei complainingly, but in the end she felt sorry for her son, and before Lin Fei could speak, she said, "Mushi..."
"I've eaten Mu Shi." Lin Fei said, paused, and met Zheng's gaze, and said solemnly, "What mother said is wrong, the criminal will not stop committing the case because of the festival, and the case at hand is a bit troublesome , if it is not resolved as soon as possible, people will still die."
Mrs. Zheng was choked by Lin Fei's words, and seeing her son's calm and indifferent expression, she couldn't help but help her forehead, and finally sighed helplessly, and said, "Ah Fei! You are always on the case, always Let's start thinking about marriage!"
Hearing the words, Lin Fei glanced at Mrs. Zheng lightly, and said, "Mother, brother is not in a hurry. I am not in a hurry."
The ball is kicked really fast!
Zheng: "..."
Blocked Zheng Shi back with a word, Zheng shook his head helplessly, then turned and went to the eldest son's yard.
…
The first day’s meal after the Dragon Boat Festival is dried plum cakes, and the dried plums are naturally left over from Master Sun’s waste yesterday.
Wen Mingtang rolled out the dough filled with dried plums and vegetables with a rolling pin, put it in the cylindrical cake oven and baked it.
Many people in Dali Temple have seen this cylindrical cake oven. The first few public chefs and even Sun and Wang have used this cylindrical pancake oven.
However, the baked pancakes were not so good, so that when he saw Wen Mingtang baking pancakes in a large pancake oven, even Liu Yuan, who was the most active in getting the court food, stopped subconsciously, and said to Wen Mingtang: "Master Wen, This cake..."
Wen Mingtang glanced at him. It happened that the first oven of dried plum cakes was almost done baking. She opened the stove lid, looked at the dried plum cakes stuck to the furnace wall, and handed over the dried plum cakes that had been taken out of the oven.
The aroma of roasted dried plum vegetables mixed with wheat and sesame permeated the air, and the people waiting in line behind the hook to get the pancake moved their index fingers.
Cookies are very common. Not only can they be seen everywhere on the streets outside, but even public chefs have made them several times.
However, this is the first time I have seen this cake stuffed with dried plums and vegetables.
Someone poked a probe and looked at Liu Yuan who was the first to get the cake. Even though the oil paper bag was separated, the freshly baked plum dried vegetable cake was still very hot.
The skin of the tongue-shaped prunes cake is as thin as paper, and a layer of roasted white sesame seeds is sprinkled on the cake. You can see a layer of prunes inside through the paper-thin cake.
Regardless of the hot hand, under the envious eyes of all his colleagues, Liu Yuan bit down on it.
There was a "click", and the crispness of the pie crust could be heard from the sound. Under the crispy crust is filled with dried plum vegetables fillings, the crust is crispy, but the dried plum vegetables inside are soggy, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a hint of sweetness in the salty aroma, the unique taste is irresistible .
Liu Yuan was happily eating plum cakes, but Zhao You suddenly rushed in from the public kitchen at this moment, grabbed him and hurried out: "Eat as you walk! You are dead again!"
