Views:

Concubine Jing was quite satisfied with this girl's temper. Although she was informal, she was also well-mannered and polite, and she finally let go of her worries. The eyes of the sons are quite accurate, and the three daughter-in-laws are all chosen to suit her heart!

"Everyone take a break, have some snacks, and drink some juice. Our event is just for fun, don't tire yourself out! If you want to pack the cakes you made today, we provide packing boxes in the house !" Yu Xiaocao saw that no matter the children or girls and wives were very interested, she couldn't help reminding her.

Zhu Junya has unceremoniously taken a small piece of tiramisu from her hand, first handed it to her dear concubine mother, and then stuffed another piece in the hand of her future sister-in-law, and then took all the cakes on the tray in Xiaocao's hand. He came over and gave a piece of food to me. While eating happily, he complained: "It's all your fault, the pastries and candies are so delicious, I have gained several catties in just a few days!"

"You have the nerve to say it! You, the mother, ate a lot of the snacks and candies that your siblings gave to the children, and you turned around and blamed others! Is there anyone like you who is the eldest sister? Only the girl Cao'er has a good heart." If it's someone else, who cares about you!" Princess Jing finished eating a piece of pastry, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and patted her on the arm.

"Mother, please slow down! It doesn't matter if you break me, don't knock over the tiramisu in my hand!" Zhu Junya looked nervous, and stuffed another piece of pastry into his mouth before continuing, "Just because Brother and sister are not the kind of narrow-minded people, that's what my daughter said. If it's someone with a bad temper, my daughter will only smile at her!"

"You, you! You're already a mother, but your temper is still so outrageous, and your son-in-law doesn't care about you!" Princess Jing pointed her daughter's head with her finger.

Zhu Junya smirked: "Your son-in-law thinks my temperament is quite good, and I don't need to change it! Your son-in-law said that those who blame their daughter-in-law for losing face for him are all trash snacks! Women's face is earned by men! As long as you Strong enough and good enough, who would dare to underestimate him or his woman? Let’s take the younger brother as an example. With his own ability and the title he earned in the army, his siblings will not be praised wherever they go. Those who came to the party today, At least half of them are here for my younger brother and younger siblings!"

"What nonsense are you telling the truth! Be careful when people hear you say that you are outspoken!" Concubine Jing was speechless about this unreliable girl. If you have the temperament to say something, you are not afraid of offending others!

"A person lives for only a few decades, so why live in the praise and criticism of others! Concubine mother, my daughter knows that you are worried about her daughter's disadvantage. Is your daughter the kind of person who will make you suffer? Someone whose daughter can't handle it, isn't it? Is there your son-in-law?" Well, this dog food is so good!

Zhu Junya stuffed another piece of dessert into Han Xiaomu's mouth, savoring the complex taste of tiramisu carefully, and quietly listening to the conversation between mother and daughter, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. What a fool. How can she be a fool who is proficient in everything from literature to martial arts to military strategy and art of war

That fellow Zhu Junxi, his mother, Princess Jing, would come to the party in person, and he didn't inform her in advance, which caught her by surprise! Fortunately, she has developed her face so that she won't find a way to sneak in in front of her future mother-in-law, eldest sister-in-law and sister-in-law. Trying to recall what she did just now, it seemed that there was no outrageous behavior or speech, Han Xiaomu was slightly relieved - go back and clean up that guy, the scheme is on her head!

"Miss Han... Miss Han!" The calling of the future eldest sister interrupted Han Xiaomu's contemplation. She raised her head, but she heard Zhu Junya ask, "Miss Yangliu over there teaches tiramisu, do you want to go?" Go try it?"

Han Xiaomu shook her head lightly, and said with a smile: "I'm clumsy, and I can't learn that delicate dim sum, so let's concentrate on making the simple sandwich biscuits the best!"

After hearing this, Princess Jing nodded in her heart, she is a down-to-earth and good girl who doesn't want to be too high-spirited.

Hearing this, Zhu Junya gave up her thoughts: "Then I won't join in the fun anymore. Xiao Si and Xiao Wu need me to watch over there! I'll make more biscuits and bring them home for the father to taste! Miss Han, You can do whatever you want, I went to see the children!"

Concubine Jing also ran out of excuses and went back to the nearby pavilion to take a rest. After seeing off the mother and daughter, Han Xiaomu was obviously relieved. In front of her future mother-in-law and elder sister-in-law, even though she has a generous and straightforward temper, she still can't let go.

Xiaocao is quite satisfied with this future second sister-in-law. Compared with those who have many twists and turns in their stomachs, she prefers to get along with people who are straightforward and have everything written on their faces.

"Miss Han, if you want to make exquisite sword biscuits, you still have to use a mold. If you knead it by hand, I'm afraid you need a lot of skills!" Seeing her rubbing the sword again, Yu Xiaocao couldn't help reminding her .

Han Xiaomu glanced at the place where the model was placed, shook his head in disappointment and said, "But, I didn't see the model of the sword?"

"You can ask someone to do it for you! Whether it's a model of a sword, spear or other weapons, it's not that troublesome to carve one out. You can ask someone who is familiar with weapons to carve one out for you!" Xiaocao met Zhu Junxi The second elder brother carved some small animal shapes out of wood blocks, and teased his nephews, knowing that he could carve some simple shapes.

Han Xiaomu looked up at her, pursed her lips, called her maid over, and whispered something in her ear. The servant girl led the order and walked towards the bamboo forest that separated the garden. Yu Xiaocao gave her some pointers on how to spread the sandwich evenly, and Han Xiaomu learned a lot. After the second batch of biscuits was baked, the pony sandwich biscuits were ready.

Lunch is served in a buffet style. There are several tables filled with various dishes in the northwest corner of the garden. Sure enough, as Xiaocao said, they are all the signature dishes of Zhenxiulou and Yaoshanfang. Dishes ordered from Zhenxiu Restaurant include: crispy fruit wood roast duck, boneless roast chicken, eight-treasure duck, mandarin fish in white sauce, Songjiang perch, mullet egg soup, yellow braised shark's fin, crystal elbow...

There are also many well-known dishes in Yaoshanfang: Buddha jumping over the wall will definitely not fall, as well as cordyceps duck, wolfberry yam porridge, Eucommia hawthorn pork belly soup, Codonopsis mutton, red bean and peanut stewed carp, Shiquan Dabu soup, Lily chicken Slices, stewed lean meat with figs, Shouwu scallop three delicacies soup...

They are all the best-selling medicinal foods in the Herbal Food Shop under the name of Princess Xu. The opportunity is rare, many wives and ladies have been fascinated by these medicinal foods for a long time, so naturally they will not miss this opportunity. Fortunately, everyone is the same, so don't laugh at anyone!

After lunch, the ladies' works were released one by one. Although they aim to enjoy the process of pastry making, they should still respect the competition. So, each of them chose the work they were most satisfied with, wrote the serial number, put it on a tray with good buoyancy, and sent it to the talented scholars outside along the clear small canal.

Talents from Beijing and China selected two first prizes, three second prizes, and five third prizes based on vision, taste, artistic conception and other aspects! It is worth mentioning that our General Mu won the second prize with her artistic conception of "Golden Armor and Iron Horse". In fact, her works really don't have much technical content. However, there are so many generals out there, and there are people she likes canvassing for her, the second prize is guaranteed!

The reward for the first prize is a 50% off membership card of "Creative Handmade Pastry". The second prize is a 30% off card, and the third prize is a 20% off membership card! And the ladies and children who are still eager to learn about the existence of the "Creative Handmade Pastry Shop" will also have discounts and big rewards when it opens, and they are all paying close attention to the activities of this shop.

At this time, Yang Liu is in charge of the herbal food shop, pastry shop, and ice point shop, and is the head of "Jin'an Diet"! After getting married, strictly speaking, the properties under Xiaocao's hands cannot be regarded as the Yu family's. Therefore, the industry originally named after "Yu Ji" was changed to the signboard of "Jin'an", and it can be distinguished at a glance that it is the property of Princess Jin'an.

Yang Liu's subordinates have trained a group of capable assistants, who have also grown up at this time, and are in charge of the pastry and freezing point industries. Due to the importance of the relationship, Yang Liu has always been in charge of the medicinal food shop. However, with the help of the shopkeeper and the head chef, she can also free up her hands to make "creative pastries".

After several years of experience, Yang Liu has grown into an excellent manager. Yu Xiaocao only wrote out her own plan and left it to her to make the preparations. Soon, Yangliu handed in an answer sheet that satisfied Xiaocao.

However, when "Creative Pastry" opened, Xiaocao, the owner, was not able to participate in the grand opening ceremony of the shop. She had already left the capital, took a boat, and traveled along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal all the way to the south of the Yangtze River.

Just after the seven-day marriage leave, the emperor summoned her into the palace and asked her to inspect the rice field in the south of the Yangtze River as an imperial envoy. Some of the seeds produced in the Huangzhuang experimental rice field last year were shipped to the south of the Yangtze River before spring plowing. Because the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is different from that in the north, and the water and soil are different, I am afraid that the high-yielding seeds in the north will change in the south. Therefore, Jiangnan also opened up a 100-acre experimental field in the Jinling area, and planted the experimental field with the seeds from the harvest of the royal experimental field and the methods summed up by Xiaocao's subordinates.

The temperature in the south is high and the rainfall is abundant. Logically speaking, the growth of rice should be better than that in the suburbs of Beijing. But when the person in charge of the Jinling Experimental Field came back and went to the outskirts of Beijing for inspection, his heart sank. The rice seedlings in the suburbs of Beijing are nearly half a month later than those in the south of the Yangtze River, regardless of whether they are raised or transplanted, but the seedlings are much stronger than those in the Jinling experimental field. What is the actual cause

The steward of the Royal Experimental Field in the suburbs of Beijing jokingly said casually: "Without the personal guidance of Princess Jin'an, you want to grow high-yield crops, are you daydreaming?"

He does not mean that. Master Ding, the person in charge of the Jinling Experimental Field, listened to it and remembered it in his heart.
