The days when I farmed in Liaozhai

Chapter 11 Peach Blossom Crisp

Fu Duoxi took a look in the mirror, and stretched out his hand to touch the forehead where the frost flower had been pasted, but he didn't see the glittering frost flower, and he didn't even see a trace of the frost flower.I didn't see it in the mirror last night, so I thought the light from the oil lamp was not good. Now is the time when the sun is the brightest, and I can see the fine fluff on my face from the mirror.

Maybe the frost flower that Xue Nu gave has already melted, after all, she is not a fairy.

The little fox demon murmured softly, and another drop of saliva overflowed from the corner of its mouth.I don't know what good food I ate again in my dream.

Fu Duoxi put the mirror back to its original place, walked out of the room lightly, and glanced sideways at the bedroom next door. The door was half open, and the black cat demon was taking a nap in the pose of a large-character cat-shaped card.

The key project in the renovation of the dilapidated hut is the renovation of the bedroom. The original one bedroom is divided into two from the middle.Some time ago, the black cat demon turned into a little black cat and slept on the tree. Now that he has a separate bedroom, he is happy to rest in the room.Sometimes when I was so tired, I just fell on the bed like a man.

Although no one in the village gossips about Fu Duoxi and Uncle Yao anymore, but the uncle and niece sharing the same room will always fall into the shoes of others.it's good now……

Fu Duoxi picked up Lanzi and walked out of the house, turned his head to look at the house with white walls and red tiles, feeling very happy, his life finally lived as he wanted.

"Aunt Huang."

Fu Duoxi yelled into the yard through the gate.Aunt Huang should be at home at this time.

Aunt Huang's husband and youngest son both teach in the county government, and they can come back once or twice a month. They only stay at home for a short period of time during the spring and winter holidays.Usually only she and her youngest daughter-in-law are at home.

In Nanping Village, the Huang family is one of the few well-to-do families in the village.

Two wooden doors opened, and a young woman in her twenties stood inside.The young woman is Aunt Huang's youngest daughter-in-law named Rong Niang. She is beautiful and can read and write, and she is closer to Aunt Huang than her own mother.

Aunt Huang's eldest son died young, and one daughter married to the county government in the early years. Her husband and son were not at home all year round, and she treated Rong Niang as her own daughter. Don't touch Yangchun water.

"Mom, what a blessing!"

Rong Niang raised her voice and shouted through the window of the main room.Aunt Huang, who was on the kang in the room, poked her head out of the window when she heard the sound, and greeted Fu Duoxi to enter the room with a smile.Rong Niang invited Fu Duoxi into the main room to sit down, then turned to the kitchen to prepare tea.

Aunt Huang came out of the house, still holding a wooden ruler and soapstone in her hand.

"I made a new peach blossom cake for Aunt Huang to try."

Fu Duoxi handed the food basket to Aunt Huang, and when she saw that Aunt Huang couldn't help, she put it on the Eight Immortals table next to the wall.

"Peach Blossom Crisp? It must be delicious just by the name."

Aunt Huang put the wooden ruler on the table, wiped her hands on the front of her clothes, picked up a piece of peach blossom cake, put it into her mouth, squinted her eyes to taste the taste, and praised, "This peach blossom cake is made from the old tree in your yard. Made of peach tree flowers? It’s so strange, why did that old peach tree bloom suddenly this year... Duoxi, you must have something good to do, it’s a good omen, it must be a good omen!”

Aunt Huang couldn't stop talking, and after eating two pieces of peach blossom cakes in a row, she caught sight of Rong Niang coming out of the stove, and hurriedly called Rong Niang to greet Fu Duoxi first.

"Duoxi, you sit down first. I'm cutting clothes. It will be ready in a while. I measured it. There should be some fabric left. I can also give you a piece of fabric to make a bellyband. Then you can embroider a lotus or peony, which can be used as a dowry. "

Fu Duoxi smiled and nodded.Aunt Huang opened the door curtain and went back to the inner room, and went back to the kang to continue her work.

Rong Niang came in with tea, "It's a bit hot, you have to let it dry for a while before you can drink it." Rong Niang spoke softly.

"Sister-in-law, try the peach blossom cakes I made. The peach blossoms are picked when the dew is still wet. Each peach blossom is carefully washed with mountain spring water, the stamens are removed, the petals are separated, and the peach petals are ground into juice and noodles. After fermentation, wrap it Puff pastry, decorated with peach blossoms and baked in the oven…

Knowing that Rong Niang is particular about food, Fu Duoxi specially explained the process of making peach blossom cakes in detail.Rong Niang was a little fascinated by what she heard, and picked up a piece of peach blossom cake and looked at it in front of her eyes.

Fu Duoxi plans to sell some snacks in the tea shed, snacks and tea are good partners.You have to research the tastes and preferences of the locals first.If Rong Niang thinks the dim sum is delicious, she should be able to sell it to customers in the tea shed.At that time, it can be made into a special product of Nanping Village, so that passing guests can pass it around as a souvenir.

"This peach blossom cake has a good shape and good color. It's delicious just looking at it." Rong Niang praised, and took the peach blossom cake close to her nose to smell it. "It smells sweet..." said Covering his lips with one hand, he took a small bite.

A piece of meringue fell from under Rong Niang's fingers.The other hand wanted to catch it, but suddenly he covered his mouth and stood up, put the bitten snack back into the food basket, and wanted to talk to Fu Duoxi, but his throat seemed to be blocked.

"what happened?"

Fu Duoxi looked at the two apologetic glances at Rong Niang hastily, thinking that Rong Niang accidentally swallowed the peach blossom cake, and wanted to reach out to help pat her on the back, Rong Niang waved her hand quickly, and walked out with small steps Room.

Fu Duoxi quickly followed out.I saw Rong Niang standing by the wall of the wing, bending over and retching, her gentle eyes were about to vomit tears.He coughed a few times, and finally spit out a mouthful of Bai Jinjin's sour water before standing up straight.

"Sister-in-law, are you alright?"

Fu Duoxi supported Rong Niang, afraid that her slender body would bend down again.

"I'm fine, I'm sorry, Duoxi, I feel like throwing up when I taste the pastry, maybe I'll be fine after a while."

Rong Niang smiled embarrassedly at Fu Duoxi, took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth, then looked nervously into the window of the main room, "Don't tell my mother-in-law, my mother-in-law will be worried."

"Then go back to your room and lie down."

Fu Duoxi watched Rong Niang go back to the wing and closed the door.

"Duo Xi, where's Rong Niang? Why do I ask you to sit alone in the room?"

Aunt Huang came out of the house, first glanced at Fu Duoxi, and then looked outside.

"Rong Niang is not feeling well. Just now she took a bite of peach blossom cakes and ran out to vomit a lot of sour water. She also said that she felt like vomiting when she smelled the cakes."

"Ah, that's okay, Rong Niang is sick! How could she be sick? She was fine in the morning, and she went to the Spring God Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings..."

Aunt Huang turned pale with shock, and said that she was going to see her daughter-in-law.

Fu Duoxi followed her and reminded: "I think Rong Niang's complexion is fine, she doesn't seem to be sick, maybe it's because of embarrassment..."

Fu Duoxi fully demonstrates the common sense and sensitivity of modern people.Aunt Huang stopped and turned around, staring at Fu Duoxi in a daze, as if she didn't understand the words.After a while, I said to myself: "No way, I haven't conceived for seven years, and now I have it? Are you really happy? Ah... God bless, Bodhisattva bless, gods and Buddhas in the sky bless, we yellow The family finally has a queen!"
