   Chapter 697 697. Birthday Cake (25)

  Tang Jinghong turned his head to look at Chu Qingzhi, looked at it for a while, and asked with a smile, "What should we do next?"

  Chu Qingzhi said, "The next step is to wait until the cake embryo is baked."

   It didn't take long, the hourglass was finished, and the cake embryo was baked.

  Chu Qingzhi took out the cake embryo and put it on the chopping board, began to spread cream, make decorations, and put fruits. The steps were all done very slowly, and she taught Tang Jinghong while doing it.

  Tang Jinghong is a good student with a strong learning ability. Chu Qingzhi will be able to do it once or twice. Although the final cake is not as exquisite as Chu Qingzhi's, it is not bad.

  Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, "General Tang is very talented as a pastry chef."

  Tang Jinghong looked at his fruit cake and said modestly, "It's not that I'm talented, it's because you teach well."

  Chu Qingzhi fetched a plate and a spoon, divided the cake she made into pieces, put them on the plate, and the two of them tasted it together, "Taste."

  Tang Jinghong took a sip and commented sincerely, "The cake has a strong egg aroma, roasted wheat aroma, sweet but not greasy, and delicious."

  Chu Qingzhi said, "I'll bake you some small cakes later, and you can take them to the capital to eat."

  There is always a feeling of being pampered by Qing Zhi, Tang Jinghong couldn't help but smile, "I'm learning, I learned how to bake for you."

"OK."

  Tang Jinghong ate half of the cake made by Chu Qingzhi, full of praise.

   Then Chu Qingzhi taught Tang Jinghong to bake small cakes.

  The raw materials for baking small cakes can be directly the raw materials of the cake embryo, just add some butter and sesame seeds, and some cup-shaped models are also needed.

Chu Qingzhi thought for a while, found a piece of scrap iron, and used the art of refining the scrap iron to refine the scrap iron into the shape of a cup. A total of thirty cups were refined, and the cups were cleaned, and then some oiled paper was cut into circles. Spread it into the cup, then pour the cake liquid flush with the mouth of the cup into the mold, and put it in the oven to bake.

   Tang Jinghong watched the whole process calmly, but was still very surprised in his heart, "Is this all right?"

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "Well, take it out and eat it."

  Tang Jinghong looked forward to it...

  Chu Qingzhi went to another workshop to get some fruit juice, and she and Tang Jinghong each had a glass, "When will you return to Beijing?"

   Tang Jinghong stopped drinking the juice while he was talking, and pursed his lips, "The next morning."

   "I see." Chu Qingzhi didn't say anything more.

  Tang Jinghong drank the juice in two or three gulps, then held the cup in silence for a while, "Qingzhi, I will go to the border to reward the three armies after I go to the capital, and I won't be back until the Chinese New Year."

   "So long?" Chu Qingzhi turned her head to look at Tang Jinghong, and the atmosphere became a little gloomy.

"Um."

  Chu Qingzhi laughed, and eased the atmosphere, "It's actually fine, we can use the Golden Feather Phoenix to contact."

  Tang Jinghong put down his cup, hugged Chu Qingzhi gently, and said in a coaxing tone, "There are many things on the border that we don't have in places like ours. I'll bring them to you when the time comes."

  Chu Qingzhi said happily, "Yes."

  The two were talking, the small cake was baked, and a mixed aroma of wheat and eggs spread out, mouth-watering.

  Chu Qingzhi took out the small cake and gave Tang Jinghong one casually, "Taste it."

  Tang Jinghong received the small cake in his hand expectantly, "With the addition of butter and sesame seeds, the taste is different again."

   "Do you like this taste?" Chu Qingzhi also ate one, it was soft and burnt, this little cake is really delicious.

  Tang Jinghong nodded, "I like it, I think no matter what you cook, it's delicious."

  Chu Qingzhi raised her head and jokingly said, "Then do you want me to be your teacher?"

  Tang Jinghong is as good as others, "I want to marry you even more."

   After worshiping the teacher, they are the elders, and they can't be together anymore.

  The two stayed at the workshop until after ten o'clock before returning home.

  Chu Qingzhi saw that the lights in Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao's room were still on, so she went to knock on the door, "Would you like some supper?"

  Chu Xuyao ​​opened the door, and smiled sweetly at Chu Qingzhi, "Fifth Sister, I'm just hungry."

  Chu Qingzhi handed a box of small cakes to Chu Xuyao, and said, "Take it and eat it, and go to bed early after eating, otherwise it will affect your performance tomorrow."

  Chu Xuyuan came out one step later, with a bitter face, "Fifth Sister, I'm getting nervous thinking about tomorrow's children's exam."

  Chu Qingzhi asked concerned, "Why are you nervous?"

  Chu Xuyuan shook his head, a little at a loss, "I don't know, I suddenly panicked."

  Chu Qingzhi patted Chu Xuyuan's head, "You go to the main room to eat small cakes, and I'll make you a glass of juice, just drink it."

   "Thank you Fifth Sister."

Chu Qingzhi went downstairs, went to the kitchen to make two glasses of juice, then went to the medicine garden to pick poria cocos that can calm people, added it to the juice, and brought it upstairs for the two of them to drink, "After supper, drink the juice, go Rinse your mouth and go to bed quickly."

  Chu Xuyuan nodded, "Yes, Fifth Sister."

  Chu Qingzhi flipped through the lessons prepared by the four girls, and accompanied the two of them for supper.

  Ge Lihua heard Chu Qingzhi's sound of flipping the book, walked out of the room, sat beside Chu Qingzhi, "Qingzhi."

  Chu Qingzhi said, "How are the children? Are there any outstanding people?"

  Ge Lihua said pertinently, "Yes, several of them, but all the children worked very hard, Qing Zhi, if they all got 90% in the exam, would you keep them all?"

  Chu Qingzhi thought for a while, "If it's as you said, it's okay to stay, and the business will expand in the future, requiring a lot of manpower."

  Ge Lihua understood, "I see."

  Chu Qingzhi said gratefully, "Li Hua, you have worked hard during this time."

  Ge Lihua smiled, "As long as I can help you, I'm not afraid of hard work, but I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."

  Wu Yaqing came out of the room. For her who loves snacks very much, when she saw the small cake, she just forgot the business, "Wow, what are you eating?"

  Chu Xuyuan hurriedly handed a small cake to Wu Yaqing, "Sister Yaqing, here it is."

  While chewing on the small cake, Wu Yaqing cast admiring gazes at Chu Qingzhi, "It's so delicious, Qing Zhi, can you sell this small cake in my bookstore?"

  Chu Qingzhi said, "I have no intention of selling it."

  Wu Yaqing waved her hand, "No, no, how can such a good thing not be sold? If you want to sell it, you have to sell it."

  Chu Qingzhi thought for a while, "I'll talk to Kisaragi tomorrow."

  Wu Yaqing's mouth was full of cakes, so she could only nod, "Yeah."

  Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao ​​drank the juice, and the flustered feeling gradually disappeared, "Fifth Sister, let's go wash our mouths and then go to bed."

   "Well, let's go." Chu Qingzhi was still reading the content of the courseware. The girls are very smart, and the courses they prepared are very suitable.

  Wu Yaqing licked her fingers, "Qingzhi, how are you doing? Is there anything that needs to be revised?"

  Chu Qingzhi said, "No, this course is well done."

  Everyone is relieved. They spent more than an hour preparing for the lesson. It would be too miserable if they start all over again.

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Everyone go to bed, it's getting late."

   "I'm asleep." Wu Yaqing yawned and returned to the room, and the others also went back to the room.
