  Chapter 368 New Year's Day Dessert (4)

  Wen Mingtang handed the dim sum list to Lin Fei, and Lin Fei looked down.

  Although many pastries have changed their names in the New Year's Day dessert box, Lin Fei still saw many familiar shadows at a glance.

  Using a mold to make Ruyi Cake with a Ruyi appearance, you can see that it is a mung bean cake with a different shape if you look at the mung beans, milk, mint, etc. used in it, and then look at the yellow-green color.

   There are also yam cakes, snowy flower cakes, etc. that have also been changed into seasonal flower shapes.

In addition to the cakes without fillings, the cakes with fillings are much more abundant. Leaving aside the "flowery clusters" shape, at a glance, there are hawthorn fillings, jujube paste walnut fillings, sesame fillings, bean paste fillings, roses, etc. The fillings and many other fillings are surprisingly rich.

In addition to these dim sum with a single filling, there are many more than one filling in it, such as the reunion crisps that I am eating now. The outermost golden shell is smooth in the mouth, but it is crispy after biting. The first thing I tasted was a layer of sweet bean paste filling. Under the bean paste filling, it was soft and glutinous. Master Wen said that the filling was called "mochi", and the innermost layer was the crispy and salty egg yolk. fillings.

   After one bite, all kinds of fillings are distinct, but layer by layer, crispy, soft, sweet, salty and other tastes appear in sequence, rich but not obtrusive, on the contrary, they blend together to complement each other, and the taste is really wonderful.

Corresponding to this reunion cake is a green "Yingchun cake", which is quite different in appearance, but the taste of the skin has changed from the egg fragrance of the reunion cake to the tea fragrance. It is because of the use of tea powder that the red bean paste inside has also changed. It has become the filling of rose bean paste, and it tastes "springy".

  In addition to the pastry gift box for this New Year’s Day snack, there is also a set of corresponding snack gift box on the list. The supply of ingredients is not enough, so it is too late to make it now.

Lin Fei looked at the gift box of snacks that had been crossed out. Except for the rare meat floss, jerky, and dried meat, there were also a lot of roasted seeds and nuts for the New Year: melon seeds, peanuts, pine nuts, and the public chef’s signature sugar-fried chestnuts. What to do is to add milk, salt and pepper, caramel, honey and other flavors to the usual five flavors. Lin Fei imagined this flavor, and felt regretful in his heart.

   That's all! There will always be a chance to eat it in the future, and the future will last forever!

  The pastry is ready, and the food list that comes with the box should also be equipped with a copy for each box.

This is going to be written until tomorrow when the box is boxed. Cover the prepared snacks with a cover, tidy up the public kitchen countertop, Wen Mingtang unbuttoned the apron around his waist, and looked at the file that was still sitting there. Lin Fei, who was eating pastry with his cheeks bulging, said, "Lin Shaoqing?" As he spoke, he nuzzled the lanterns on the surrounding wall with his mouth.

  The meaning could not be more obvious: she is going back to rest, if Lin Fei is still in the public kitchen, remember to turn off the lights when leaving.

  Lin Fei gave a "hmm" when he heard the words, but put away the file in front of him, got up and said, "Are you done with your work? I have a few words to ask you, and I'm leaving after I finish."

  Wen Mingtang was taken aback when he heard the words, then heaved a sigh of relief for no reason, and said, "Please tell me, Lin Shaoqing."

  Although she makes pastries behind the counter, he looks through the file in front of the food table, Da Rong has a civilized way of life, so he doesn't care about it. But there is no reason to be in the same room like this, and it is at night. Although it is a place where anyone can come, such as a public kitchen, it is always... not very appropriate.

   But every time someone notices something "inappropriate", this Lin Shaoqing can say "he has business" in a serious manner.

  Wen Mingtang thought to himself: No wonder Riji Caimai talked to her about this a while ago, feeling that he wanted to persuade her, but he had nowhere to say it.

  In all fairness, Lin Fei really took good care of her within the reasonable limits. This point is much better than that "sister Mingtang".

  However... such things don't need to be considered right now.

   Maybe it was what Ji Caimai thought, or maybe this Lin Shaoqing didn't mean it at all.

  Whether there is or not, in today's Darong, it is impossible for him to be with her.

  No matter how civilized the folk customs are, the concept of family status in Dayong still exists. It is also because of this that Ah Bing and the glutinous rice **** can go so smoothly without any barriers.

   Aside from the troubles brought about by the surname "Wen", she now wants to make money to buy a house of her own.

  As for Lin Fei...he is not Li Yuan, let alone that ex-fiancé. Wen Mingtang could see clearly that this Lin Shaoqing was an extremely sober and rational person, otherwise, how could he have grasped the key points in such a complicated case?

  Wen Mingtang looked at Lin Fei in front of him, and heard Lin Fei say: "I heard Zhao You talk about the glutinous rice balls. Before the glutinous rice **** suddenly panicked, what happened?"

   "No." Wen Mingtang heard the words and hurriedly said, "I know what you mean, I'm afraid Tangyuan came here because of someone's rumors, but...it really hasn't."

  As for the relationship between father and daughter, of course it cannot be taken in court as evidence.

This wasn't the main purpose of his trip at all, so Lin Fei said "hmm" and asked Wen Mingtang, "Yesterday I heard that Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu didn't go back to pack their luggage, and they called the boss directly after lunch. Yuan left, right?"

  Wen Mingtang nodded, his heart skipped a beat, and a bad feeling arose spontaneously: "But what happened?"

  He sent Liu and Bai to the Yamen of Xianyang County yesterday because he knew that the case was quite troublesome. Of course, he was not completely unprepared, and he would not let his subordinates risk their lives.

  After Xi Niang bumped into what happened yesterday, he made preparations in advance and prepared someone to watch in front of the mansion.

  Not long after the fruit meeting, Xi Niang left the mansion to meet a strange man. After the big man made contact with Qian Niang, he left the city.

  The people he arranged followed immediately.

  It wasn't until midnight yesterday that he received the news from Xianyang: the big man who was born there really set up an ambush on the side of the road, trying to ambush Liu and Bai and his party, but was captured on the spot by the people he arranged.

Lin Fei said: "The big man was a dead man. He took the poison in advance and died after being caught. Although nothing happened, but... Liu Yuanbai and Zhu's temperament, knowing that this trip is dangerous, will definitely resolve the matter as soon as possible. logic…"

  Wen Mingtang's face turned pale when he heard this: "Actually, the two of them will come back immediately after finishing their work quickly, lest something will happen."

Lin Fei nodded, and said: "Before the evening meal, I received a message from Xianyang. They sent it from Xianyang at noon, saying that everything is going well. If there is no other clue, I will leave Xianyang this afternoon," Lin Fei said. When Fei said this, he looked at Wen Mingtang, whose face was pale, paused, and said, "If other clues suddenly arise, it is not impossible to interview more people, and it will take a day or two."

   Of course, there is some truth to this statement, but compared to this guess, another speculation is obviously more likely.

  Wen Mingtang asked Lin Fei with a pale face: "What Lin Shaoqing means is that there will be people who leak the news in your place, and there may not be any here in Dali Temple?"
