Divorced and raising a baby to set up a stall, the CEO’s ex-wife pursues him

196. New lotus cake and thousand-layer oil cake! Rich ladies are so envious of their friends!

Before going to bed at night, President Shen sent a picture to Boss Lu.

That is a picture of a rich woman wearing light pajamas and looking cool

The silk fabric sticks to the snow-white jade skin. Tell me whether you will take the postgraduate entrance examination or not?

Royal and pure

Very white, very smooth

Very artistic. So artistic.

Of course, the picture is only visible to Mr. Lu

After watching this, Boss Lu took several deep breaths and felt like doing push-ups.

Just when Mr. Lu was thirsty and still not satisfied, the picture was withdrawn.

Boss Lu stared at the screen for a few seconds and typed:

Lu Qin:”Are you helping your friend try on pajamas?”

Shen Muyan:”Does it look good?” (arrogant expression)

Lu Qin:”It looks great, but it has been withdrawn.” (Smiling emoji)

Shen Muyan:”Paid content is not for casual viewing.”

Lu Qin:”How much does it cost to see it?”

Shen Muyan:”Two thousand”

Lu Qin:”Mr. Duo? That’s absolutely impossible. I have to fry some rice noodles. Goodbye, sleep.���

Shen Muyan hummed and groaned, but did not reply.

Fang Ya, the dog-headed military strategist, sent a message to Shen Muyan:”Have you sent the sexy pajamas photos to your boss Lu? Can you resist the temptation?”

Shen Muyan typed back:”I can’t stop it, but I just don’t want to pay to watch it. Two thousand is too expensive.”

Fang Ya:”He is really stingy. If our CEO Shen’s private photos were put up for auction, young elite entrepreneurs would be scrambling to get them. The starting price would be a million!”

Shen Muyan has both good looks and a good figure. She is also a wealthy woman. Her hardware configuration is fully loaded.

If she wasn’t so stubborn and always treated other men coldly, the people chasing after her would probably line up to the Pacific Ocean.

Shen Muyan:”Humph, that man doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”

Fang Ya:”It’s okay, find someone who can use the trump card”

Shen Muyan:”What’s the killer move?”

Fang Ya, the dog-headed military strategist, wet her saliva with her index finger and flipped through a book called”The Love Guide for Chasing Men”.》

“I’ll tell you tomorrow, but you have to bring me food.”

……

The first ray of sunlight in the morning shines through the gap in the curtains

Lu Qin opened his eyes

Yesterday evening, I won the advanced lottery [Full-level Chinese pastry skills】

Lu Qin plans to add two new products, lotus crisps and thousand-layer oil cakes

Dim sum does not need to be made fresh, nor does it need to be stored in a constant temperature box after it is made. It is the most friendly food for stalls.

Lu Qin got up early to buy new ingredients

My assistant Xiaomi was already busy in the kitchen at around 4 o’clock.

Now she can cook green bean paste by herself, and has no problem kneading dough and making fillings for crystal cakes and crystal shrimp dumplings.

Moreover, Xiaomi will take the initiative to work without Lu Qin’s instructions. He never complains about being tired and never slacks off. He is definitely a perfect employee in the boss’s mind.

The key is that you don’t have to pay wages, you just need to ensure Xiaomi’s basic living and food.

Such an assistant is undoubtedly the most awesome reward in the advanced draw.

It’s a pity that I didn’t get it later.

The production of lotus crisps is relatively complicated, mainly because more materials are needed.

The second thing is to pay attention to the shape

Why is it called Lotus Pastry? The pastry looks like a lotus flower.

The authentic lotus cake has extremely fine craftsmanship, just like a picture that is pleasing to the eye.

The filling of lotus crisps is carrot, or white lotus paste is also OK.

There are two main colors. The stamens are yellow, which requires pumpkin, and the petals are red, which requires dragon fruit juice.

Lard should be added to the flour to make it easier to crisp up.

This is similar to Bosi oil cake, so you need to prepare more pork fat, and thousand-layer oil cake can also be used.

Lu Qin went around the market and bought a series of ingredients.

The more difficult thing to buy is the green and red silk embellished on the thousand-layer oil cake.

If you buy cakes from street shops, be careful of the green and red silk on them, as additives are added.

The worst is to use mustard greens and add coloring, which is not poisonous to eat, but it is not good for the body.

Lu Qin would naturally not buy the blue and red silk from a bad brand.

The better green and red shreds on the market, without any technology, are shredded from tangerine peel, carrot, orange peel, papaya, radish, etc.

But the most authentic one is made with green apricots and rose candied fruit.

It is more expensive due to price, labor and other cost constraints.

In the past, only the royal family or wealthy families could afford it.

Lu Qin searched for a full hour and after asking around, he finally found a small shop selling this kind of green and red silk.

The shop is run by an elderly couple. It is a decades-old shop. Although it is a small workshop, it is relatively clean inside. There are no machines, and all the tools used are made of wood and bamboo.

Lu Qin happened to see this old couple making kumquats and candied dates.

On the wooden shelf, there are green and red silk, preserved fruits stored in glass bottles.

Lu Qin went in to negotiate the price, and after tasting it, he was very satisfied with the quality

The reason why this decades-old store has been open for so long is its reputation and quality.

It’s not easy for the old couple to do business. Lu Qin didn’t bargain and bought four cans of green and red silk, one can of kumquat candied dates, and one can of winter melon candied cubes.

Give your little ones candied fruits as snacks. These naturally made things are many times healthier than those candies made by industrial machines.

Lu Qin drove back to the old neighborhood and arrived at the gate of the courtyard. Xiaomi immediately ran out to help move things.

Lu Qin walked into the kitchen, and the fillings for the crystal cake and crystal shrimp dumplings were almost ready.

Lu Qin washed his hands and dried them, then started to work.

After the crystal cake and crystal shrimp dumplings were put into the steamer, Lu Qin began to knead the dough to make lotus cake and thousand-layer oil cake.

Xiaomi is helping out

Lu Qin reported a string of addresses to Xiaomi

“Xiaomi, we will have to add more thousand-layer oil cakes every day. There will definitely not be enough steamers. After the morning stall today, go to that address and buy two stacks of steamers.”

“OK, boss.”

Xiaomi in mind

Lotus cakes are fried like Bosi oil cakes.

The thousand-layer oil cake is steamed in a steamer.

Lu Qin asked Xiaomi to keep kneading the dough and explained in detail the proportion of oil and sugar that should be added to the all-purpose flour.

The amount of water added to flour is different in summer and winter.

How much water should be added to a pound of flour? The master chef will only say”appropriate amount”.”

But how much is the right amount? It all depends on experience and feel.

A novice would use a measuring cup, but Lu Qin has full-level skills and can add accurately by feel.

Xiaomi has 100% understanding, so after Lu Qin demonstrated it once, Xiaomi had a deep understanding of the word”appropriate amount”.

Lu Qin asked Xiaomi to knead the dough while he prepared the fillings for the lotus cakes.

After the carrot filling is fried, Lu Qin starts making the thousand-layer oil cake

Thousand-layer oil cake is one of the two typical specialties of Fuchun. Fuchun has a history of one hundred years in Yangzhou. The other specialty is Jade Shaomai.

Thousand-layer oil cake is known as the Napoleon of Yangzhou morning tea, with its white as snow and thousand layers of cake.

The oil cake has 64 layers, each layer is as thin as a cicada’s wing

After Xiao Mi kneaded the dough, Lu Qin rolled it flat, folded it, brushed it with sugar and oil, and folded it again.

Stacking the dough layer by layer is a delicate craft

Why is Qianceng Yougao called a double-wonder? (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Because it uses a semi-fermented process, one pound of flour can absorb six or seven ounces of water.

After the dough of the thousand-layer oil cake is put into the steamer, Lu Qin then makes the lotus cake.

The production process of lotus cake is complicated. If the details are not in place, it is easy to fail.

Moreover, the petals and stamens cannot be broken. If one piece is broken, it will affect the appearance and it will be a failure.

The dough is divided into red and yellow. The red one is lotus petals mixed with dragon fruit juice, and the yellow one is lotus stamens mixed with pumpkin.

Lu Qin rolls out the dough to create a petal-like effect, and folds it in half, just like the thousand-layer oil cake.

Both the petals and the stamens are one open and four

After each fold, use a toothpick to poke small holes in the dough to squeeze out the air bubbles.

Why are there bubbles?

Because the dough has gluten, bubbles will definitely appear after the dough is beaten.

It is very simple to wake up the dough, just cover it with plastic wrap and it will take ten minutes.

Lotus cakes should not only be delicious, but also beautiful

So it takes a lot of time to shape the shape.

However, for a skilled player like Lu Qin, with just a pair of hands and a small knife, he can shape the dough faster than a machine.

In half an hour, the long table was filled with red lotus crispy dough balls wrapped in yellow.[]

Those with trypophobia should be careful

Heat oil in a large pot at 130 degrees

Ordinary chefs would use a thermometer to measure the oil temperature, but Boss Lu only needs to use chopsticks to measure the oil temperature.���Poke to see the bubbles or control the oil temperature directly with your hands..

Using a thermometer is a sign of inexperience

The dough is put into the pan, and the petals are crispy one by one. The lotus flowers bloom in the hot oil, which is wonderful and beautiful.

Just use chopsticks to pick it up, but keep your hands steady.

Lu Qin demonstrated three times, and Xiaomi put the remaining dough into the oil pan

Boss Lu started to work on other

7:20

Lu Qin called the little guy to get up

Ten minutes later, breakfast

There was a knock on the door

Shen Muyan is here for breakfast again

“Mother~！”

“Hello, boss lady!”

Shen Muyan wore a black and white professional suit today. Her white and round legs were as straight as chopsticks. Her hair was simply tied up, and she had no makeup on her face. However, her appearance was better than that of any female movie star.

Boss Lu and President Shen looked at each other and said”Good morning!””

The two of them didn’t say anything on the surface, but their eyes were meaningful.

Recently, President Shen has frequently taken the initiative to attack, and Boss Lu has retreated to defend the tower. I wonder if he can still hold on.

Breakfast is fried eggs, ham, crystal shrimp dumplings, hot milk

Xiaomi also brought a plate of lotus crisps and thousand-layer oil cakes

Shen Muyan and Lu Xiyao’s eyes lit up

Boss Lu has made new products

Lotus cakes look like delicate sculptures made of flour

The thousand-layer cake is in diamond shape, hibiscus color, translucent, and covered with red and green silk, which is refreshing and pleasing to the eye.

The young lady boss exclaimed:”Dad! They look so good! I can’t bear to eat them!”~！”

Although he said this, the little guy has already started drooling.

The boss lady was very excited and took out her phone:”Don’t move, I want to take a photo.”

Because the lotus cakes and thousand-layer oil cakes look great, Shen Muyan rarely takes photos and her skills are not very good, but the photos she takes still have the texture of artistic posing.

She rarely posted a circle of friends

【Heart-beating breakfast】【Picture】【Picture】

After a while, someone liked and commented

Fang Ya:”Oh my god! What is this? Boss Lu has a new product!” (Furious expression)

Shen Hongda:”Going to Lu Qin’s place so early in the morning? Good job! Bring back a portion, your mother wants to eat it!”

Jiang Qin:”Xiao Yan, it’s your dad who wants to eat. His saliva is about to flow down his beard! That’s right, hang out more with Lu Qin, and spend more time with Yao Yao! You can put work aside!””

Mr. Deng Jianping:”Mr. Shen is so lucky! It must be made by Mr. Lu, right? How many new products has his snack stand launched? I just came back from a business trip and I want to eat Mr. Lu’s food!”

Mr. Sun Zhi:”Mr. Shen!” (thumbs-up emoji)

Fan Qingfang:”I want to eat it too!” (envious expression)

Ouyang Lin:”Daqing 0.2 sent this so early, Mr. Shen, you are a bit too much!”

……

Shen Muyan was in a very good mood after seeing the envious expressions on her friends’ circle.

“Dad, can I eat this lotus?~？”

The little guy took his finger out of his mouth and pointed at the lotus crisp, but couldn’t bear to touch it.

“Of course, this is a Chinese pastry, the lotus cake. Take one and eat it.”

There are four lotus cakes and thousand-layer oil cakes on the plate. Each person can try one.

The little guy took a bite of the lotus crisp, his eyes narrowed into crescents, and he was so delicious that he shook his head.

Shen Muyan also tasted it. The crispy layers were clear, crispy, sweet, and unique.

I tried the thousand-layer cake again

The thousand-layer oil cake has distinct layers, is soft and sweet, and has the same excellent taste and texture

The rich woman looked at Lu Qin with stars in her eyes

Boss Lu is really amazing. Everything he does is top-notch.

It seems that… the admiration for him is constantly increasing.

After breakfast, the rich woman ate and took

When Lu Qin learned that the gift was for Shen Hongda and his wife, he was very willing and packed a few more boxes.

“You guys go set up the stall, I’ll take the kid to kindergarten.”

“OK, drive slower.”

Lu Qin gave a long-winded instruction and put the lunch box that had been prepared long ago into the canvas bag.

He packed another box of lotus crisps and thousand-layer fried cakes for the little one to have as afternoon snacks.

There is no doubt that with a hearty lunch and delicious afternoon tea, the little one is destined to be the most beautiful kid in the kindergarten.
