Chapter 124 Fruit Candy Made of Cornmeal

After the eighth day, when the shops of Tiansifang and Nishangfang had just opened, someone came looking for Qin Ya.

Qin Ya went to the front hall to take a look, only to find that this person looked very familiar.

"My lady sent an invitation to my wife, and invited my wife to come over to talk about it."

Qin Ya recognized that this maid was from Lu Ying's side, took the invitation, and said: "Thank you for making a trip, why don't you drink a cup of tea and wait for me in the room, I will come out after changing clothes."

Although the time was not written on the invitation, Qin Ya understood Lu Ying's thoughts. She thought it was because she was confined at home for a few days during the Chinese New Year. play with her.

Right after the festival, there was not much business after opening the door, and Qin Ya had nothing to do, so she went to the house to change into clothes suitable for going out to visit, and followed the maid to the magistrate's house.

As soon as he crawled into the yard, he heard Lu Ying's voice.

The orioles coming out of the valley are like birds, and they heard their voices before they saw anyone: "You always say that sister Qin Ya is coming soon. I have asked so many times, but I still say this. How long will I have to wait?"

The maids on the side looked at each other, not knowing how to answer her.

Seeing her, Qin Ya walked in from the door, and said with a smile, "I'm here, why are you always making things difficult for me?"

"elder sister."

Seeing Lu Ying, she ran directly into Qin Ya's arms.

There are no sisters in her family, and there are not many people of the same age, like these servant girls, and because the family's family education is extremely strict and pays attention to the distinction between superiority and inferiority, they usually dare not play with her.

The new playmate she found now is Qin Ya, so she is very happy to see Qin Ya.

Qin Ya patted her little head lovingly, and said, "Did you get bored at home these few days during the Chinese New Year?"

"Who says no? I want to go out to play with you, but my grandmother said that you are not in the store during the Chinese New Year, and I can't find you when I go. I have to wait until you open on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year..."

Lu Ying chattered and complained to Qin Ya about how boring she was recently, and her family didn't play with her, so she was almost suffocated to death when she was bored at home.

Qin Ya knew that she was a child at heart, so she specially brought her a pack of candies she made during the Chinese New Year when she came here.

Lu Ying was really happy to see her.

"Wow! Sister, you are amazing, how did you make the candy into the shape of a bunny..."

What Lu Ying was talking about was the fruit candy that Qin Ya and Li Xin'er made during the Chinese New Year. Qin Ya used modern wisdom to teach everyone to mix corn flour and rock sugar in proportion, and then knead them into the shapes of various small animals. It tastes like sweet candy corn.

Seeing that she liked it, Qin Ya couldn't help laughing and said, "They're all little things I figured out at home. I'll make them for you if you like them."

Lu Ying is a person who says that the wind is the rain, and does not follow Qin Ya's excuses.

Nao said: "No, I want my sister to teach me how to do it today, otherwise my sister will always say that, when will I see my sister again."

When Qin Ya heard this, a gleam flashed in her eyes.

"Do you want me to stay with you every day?"

Lu Ying nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Of course, it would be great if my sister could accompany me every day."

When Qin Ya heard this, she patted her head lovingly and said, "In this case, you should tell your lord to invite me to come and sit in the clothes, so that I can often go in and out of the magistrate's mansion to accompany you."

Since Qin Ya said so, she naturally had a deeper plan.

In essence, she didn't want to use deceit to hurt this innocent Lu Ying, but she was really curious about the secrets that the man from the backyard had with the prefect's family.

Although she is not willing to get involved in these conspiratorial matters, the man left a deep impression on Qin Ya. Many times when she closes her eyes, she can see his drooping face. There is neither sadness nor joy in those golden eyes.

Qin Ya knew that if she didn't investigate his affairs clearly, it would be hard for her not to care.

That being the case, why not start by making clothes for the magistrate's house, and proceed step by step. You can take advantage of Lu Ying's trust in yourself and stay in the magistrate's mansion for a long time to investigate this matter.

Lu Ying was really innocent, and didn't think too much after hearing the words.

She just turned her head and pondered: "In this way, my sister can come here to play with me often. It's really great. Ah Ying is going to tell grandma the good news."

Qin Ya held her hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't you want to learn how to make fruit candy?"

Lu Ying nodded: "Yes."

"Then I'll teach you how to make fruit candy today, and you can go to the old lady when you have a chance later."

When Lu Ying heard this, she felt that what she said really made sense.

So he nodded and said: "Okay, then I will listen to my sister."

Qin Ya ordered her servants to prepare the raw materials for making fruit candy, as well as a small comb.

Lu Ying looked curiously: "What does sister want to comb, the little rabbit has no hair?"

Qin Ya didn't answer.

Go straight out, mix the cornmeal and rock sugar, then grab a small dough and knead the outline of the rabbit.

Cut the top of the dough with a comb, extrude it into the shape of rabbit ears, and then use the gears of the comb to press various patterns, so that the rabbit looks alive, just like the real thing.

After doing this, Qin Ya turned her head and explained to Lu Ying.

"The comb is very useful, not only for combing hair, but of course it can be used for rabbits."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ying clapped her hands happily.

"Sister is so smart."

Qin Ya smiled without saying a word, and put aside the little rabbit she had made.

He waved to Lu Ying and said, "Come and try..."

Lu Ying tried several times, but none of them were as vivid as Qin Ya's. But fortunately, she was willing to persevere, and gradually she was able to pinch a rabbit with a similar outline.

"Look, sister, I succeeded!"

Lu Ying picked up her hand and squeezed out a four-dimensional thing, like Qin Ya asking for credit.

Qin Ya pursed her lips and smiled, "In that case, let's steam them."

The maid took the dough and went to the kitchen to find a steamer for steaming.

After a stick of incense, Qin Ya guessed that time would be enough, so she asked the servant girl to lift the cage up.

After opening the drawer, a scent of fruit candy wafted out.

The freshly made candies are still soft, and the crystal clear bunnies are very beautiful and delicious. The one made by Qin Ya is especially delicate and cute.

Lu Ying held the two rabbits from ear to ear happily.

"Why is the rabbit I made not as beautiful as the rabbit my sister made?"

On the other hand, the rabbit made by Lu Ying has a big belly, two ears of different lengths, and even one eye is big and the other is small. After being steamed in a cage, it becomes more obvious, which is very funny.

"Practice makes perfect. It's your first time doing it. It's already very good. The first time I did it, it wasn't as beautiful as yours..."

"really?"

"Of course it's true."
