Chapter 156 Delicious Cold Cake
She was feeling emotional when she heard Cuiyun calling in the distance, "Miss, why are you here!"

With a basket in his hand, he might be walking in a hurry, Cuiyun's face was flushed.

Coming to Shutong, he took out a flower umbrella and opened it to block the sun for her.

"Miss! The sun is coming up, be careful of sunburn, let's go back quickly! Mrs. Chen made cold cakes at home, waiting for you to eat when you go back!"

He handed the basket to Li Han again, "Uncle Li, this is boiled herbal tea, you can keep it and drink it slowly."

Shutong has supernatural powers, and her physique has been strengthened, so she is not afraid of the sun, but when she heard that there is a cold cake to eat, she immediately moved her legs.

On the way back, I met a big yellow ox, and was led back dejectedly.

Cuiyun was surprised, "The big ox is actually working?" She also knew the big ox's violent temper.

Shutong passed the big ox and gave him another slap, "Remember to work hard!"

The big ox immediately quickened his pace, and was dragged away by someone.

Seeing this, Cuiyun burst into a smile, "Sure enough, he is a bully!"

After speaking, she felt that she had been reckless, secretly observed Shutong's expression, and found that the lady was not angry.Only then said: "Uncle Li also wanted to drive the cow to work in the field before, but unfortunately no one can subdue it, it's Miss who is the best!"

Shutong hummed, "What do you do with the cows that can't work!"

He sighed with regret: "I hope it will not give up, so I have a reason to eat roast beef."

Cuiyun smiled and said: "This cow has become a spirit. Look at its appearance just now. Seeing the lady is like a mouse seeing a cat. It no longer has the usual violent temper!"

Shutong curled her lips and said, "It's really cheap, it's too easy to transport some rice."

Cuiyun pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Oxen are often used in the fields. When these crops are harvested, they can be used to plow the land!"

Shutong nodded, "By the way, what is the cold cake made by Mrs. Chen? Is it delicious?"

She still cared more about food, so she involuntarily quickened her pace, and Cuiyun trotted along, even holding an umbrella for her.

Some panted and said: "The cold cake is made from a kind of fruit powder, which is suitable for eating in hot weather!"

She paused again and said, "It's still the chestnut cake that Wang'er sent to Dr. Xiao's house yesterday, and the thank you gift from Dr. Xiao!"

Shutong paused, curled her lips and said, "What kind of fruit is it? If it's delicious, I'll get it next time!"

Cuiyun hated herself for speaking too fast, and said hastily: "I don't even know what it is. I heard from Mrs. Chen that it is also a kind of medicinal material. It is made into cold cakes to clear away heat and detoxify. It is the most refreshing and comfortable to eat in summer, so I made some !"

Shutong was drooling again when he heard the words, and said annoyedly: "I took other people's ingredients and made a cold cake, Mrs. Chen will not give it to Dr. Xiao!"

Cuiyun knew what Miss was most concerned about, so she quickly waved her hand and said, "No! No! Mrs. Chen promises that she won't give it away after that!"

She talked about Mrs. Chen's original words, "I am a widow, so I should avoid suspicion!"

Shutong paused, and could hear a trace of sympathy in Cuiyun's voice.Strangely said: "Cuiyun, why do I feel that you really want Mrs. Chen to marry that doctor?"

Cuiyun was startled, and hurriedly waved her hands, "No, no! This servant is just a little bit emotional. It's a pity that Mrs. Chen has been a widow all her life in such a young age!"

Shutong nodded thoughtfully when she heard the words, she doesn't want to marry, but it doesn't mean others don't!
Cuiyun and the others are all ancient people. In their thinking, women have to get married sooner or later, and it is only reasonable to have a husband and a child.

There are also many widows who remarry. After all, life is difficult, and it is difficult for a widow with children to support the family.

"Oh! Did the two of them see each other?"

Cuiyun hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, it's all just guessed by the servants themselves."

Shutong gave her a white look, "The client doesn't have any ideas yet, what are you guessing beside, are you going to be a matchmaker?"

Cui Yun smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, the reason why this servant cares so much about Mrs. Chen is because she looks like the eldest sister whom this servant married far away."

She restrained her smile and said in a low voice: "My mother passed away when I was very young, and my elder sister brought me up. She was married to other provinces by my grandmother and my slave was also abducted. I have never seen my elder sister again. I don't know how she is now!"

Shutong felt a little sympathetic to her. In ancient times, communication was underdeveloped, and the two sisters were far away from each other, and they might never have the chance to meet each other in their lifetime.

"Then you can treat Mrs. Chen as your sister, I think she takes good care of you and Hongxia!" Shutong said dryly.

Cuiyun didn't want her sadness to affect the young lady's mood, so she said with a smile, "Yes! We told Mrs. Chen privately that we want to be god-sisters, and I hope the young lady agrees!"

Shutong smiled and said: "It's good that you are happy, by the way, such a happy event, why don't you cook something delicious to celebrate!"

She still cares more about whether there is good food to eat!
Cuiyun smiled and said: "Miss, don't worry, the slaves must learn more about food, so that Miss can eat well!"

Shutong waved his hands, "Let's go, I can't wait to eat cold cakes!"

Going straight to Mrs. Chen's small courtyard, she saw a bowl of shiny, jelly-like food on the table.

"Is this cold cake? It looks very tempting!"

Mrs. Chen came out of the kitchen, and said with a smile: "Miss, why did you go to the field so early in the morning, Hongxia quickly fetch water for Miss to wash!"

Two maids fetched water to help Shutong wash her hands, her eyes were fixed on the cold cake.

Seeing that Mrs. Chen deftly cut a large piece of cold cake, cut it into strips, put it in a sea bowl, and sprinkled it with sugar.

Cut out another large piece, cut it in the same way, sprinkle with chives, and pour over the prepared sauce.

"This cold cake can be made sweet or salty with seasonings. I'll make some of both for you. You can try it."

Shutong was already drooling before she moved her chopsticks, she sat down quickly, and the two sea bowls were placed side by side, equally attractive, she didn't know which one to eat first.

Use chopsticks to pick a piece dipped in sugar and put it into your mouth. It is cold, sweet, smooth and tender, and it is a delicious food that you have never eaten before!

Shutong even ate a few pieces of sweet cold cakes, and reluctantly changed his target.

Tasting another flavor, the cold cake tastes salty and delicious, soft and smooth, and it feels delicious in a different way!
She couldn't stop eating bite after bite, sweet and salty were all to her liking.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chen turned around and brought out another condiment from the kitchen, which was red and oily and very attractive.

Seeing Miss Chen's eyes staring at her, Mrs. Chen smiled and said: "I got this kind of seasoning by chance in Ancheng before. Many people can't stand the spicy taste, but some people like it so much that they can't put it down. I can accept it myself! Come out and try to make a bowl of chili oil, I wonder if Miss can eat it!"

As she spoke, she brought the bowl of chili oil under Shutong's nose for her to smell, "Don't worry! This chili powder can be stored for a long time, and it's not bad!"

Shutong saw that spicy oil was bright red and smelled good, so he nodded repeatedly.

So she ate another big bowl of spicy cold cake. There is chili powder in the last days. She had eaten it before, but the spicy oil made by Mrs. Chen was more refreshing.
