The radish cake here is not the same as the Cantonese refreshments of my previous life. It was simply made from radish paste mixed with rice flour, steamed first and then fried until the outer skin was scorched. It was then sprinkled with salt and pepper when eating. It was indeed a very attractive dish.
Su Xinyu took a bite, and although it smelled good, it was very sticky. The rice here was different from the glutinous rice. It was yellow rice. In her previous life, it was used in the northeast as a bean paste. It was indeed very sticky and delicious, but the feeling of being made with different quality was also different. Something was wrong with the fire. Even if she didn't say anything about the sticky teeth, they would still stick to her mouth.
She admitted that the radish rice cake tasted good. But the taste was terrible. If you could use glutinous rice, or grind rice into powder to make it, the taste would be seventy to eighty percent better. However, as far as the food on the streets was concerned, it could be considered as one of the top choices. After all, the rest only had a little stuffing in the dough, or just a little sugar in the flour.
Seeing that Su Xinyu was eating it carefully, Gouzi regretted it immediately after finishing his piece of radish cake in two big gulps. Madam Soong watched as his son ate the radish cake. She gave the piece in her hand to his son with an eager look. Can't you learn from a girl? It's like who's going to steal from you. "
Su Xinyu smiled and said, "Brother Gou Zi is a man, how can he be like a girl?"
The Madam Liu laughed: "You're right. Ah Gui, don't always talk about a dog like that. Dogman is such a good boy. It was benevolent and righteous. You see, when you talk about girls, you don't like it. "
Madam Soong heard the girl speak up for her foolish son. "She is about to be overjoyed." Aiyo, so your mothers are the same. Struggling against me, right? "
Madam Su was also amused, "Second Sister-in-Law, don't make us laugh. Girl, are you enough? Mother will give you this as well. "
Su Xinyu hurriedly shook her head, "No, mother, you eat it yourself. That's enough for me. "
They were chatting and laughing over there. On the second floor of a nearby teahouse, the three of them were sitting next to a window. The three of them clearly recognized the woman and the girl downstairs.
"Mistress, look, it's that little girl from that day."
Shangguan Lin also noticed the little girl. He watched as the young girl held the piece of cake in both hands and nibbled it, giving her mother, grandmother and brother a sweet smile. "He was a little envious." The brothers and sisters of the common people are really enviable. " As descendants of the imperial family, women were still fighting and scheming for the honor of their husbands, not to mention the princes like them. For that position, there was not even a trace of kinship left.
Xiao Tong had been by the Fifth Prince's side since he was young, and he had also clearly seen the face of everyone in the palace. "Now that I see my master envious of the ordinary people and smile at them, how can I express my heartache so easily?" Master Four is very close to you. "
Shangguan Lin laughed bitterly: "Go and buy two servings of snacks, it seems good to see them eat."
Xiao Tong hurriedly accepted the order, "This servant will go buy it now. Otherwise... Ask the family to come up? " Even though this didn't make sense, there was still a reason for it. When he bumped into someone last time, although he lost money and gifts, it was fate that he met them again. He could still have a chat. In any case, the older members were much older than their masters. The young ones were much younger than their own masters, and there was nothing to avoid.
Shangguan Lin waved his hand, "There's no need. This was originally a foreign road, so there was no need to continue creating trouble. With my identity, who knows what I will provoke. "
Su Xinyu's five senses were extremely acute, and after a while, someone nearby noticed her. She raised her head based on her senses. Because it was a light party today, the doors and windows of the teahouse were all open. Su Xinyu saw the person who was looking at him, and the two of them locked gazes.
It was actually him. Su Xinyu was a little surprised in her heart. After all, she could tell that the youth's family background that day was definitely not ordinary. This kind of person was at least not someone she could befriend now, so she didn't take him seriously at the time. However, the other party was also looking at him, proving that he did not put the previous matter to the back of his mind.
Seeing the little girl raise her head and look at him, Shangguan Lin was startled. He could be sure of that, but this little girl was extremely alert. Otherwise, after taking a few glances, how could he make her suddenly raise her head and look him in the eye? It seemed like she was also a different girl. Thinking about it, Shangguan Lin laughed for no reason.
Seeing that the young lad was smiling at him, Su Xinyu replied with a big smile. Then she turned back to her radish cake and began to talk and laugh with Dogman.
The little girl's smile was extremely clean, making Shangguan Lin's originally suppressed emotions instantly ease up. In the capital, ever since he had started memorizing the events that occurred in the past ten years, there was not a single day that had not been spent in nervousness and calculation. And in that palace, such a pure and pure smile does not exist except as a baby in its cradle.
Seeing Master laughing, Zheng Liang was curious: "Master, is there something funny?"
Although they grew up together, Zheng Liang was far less meticulous than he was. But it was also true that Xiao Tong was a martial artist, and everyday he would also protect his own safety. He would also need to train with his own hidden guards. "Indeed, not as much as Xiao Tong who has such an opportunity to interact with those things. Stupid people were also reasonable.
Xiao Tong frowned, "It's already funny enough listening to you talk about it. What was there to look at? Hurry down and buy some snacks for the master! Didn't you hear Master's orders? "
Zheng Liang rubbed his ears, "Weren't you the one who received my orders? "Why did it become me again?"
Xiao Tong glared: You are a guard, I have always wanted you to run errands for me.
Zheng Liang hurriedly raised his hand. "Fine! I'll fight with you. Can't I buy it? "
Seeing that Zheng Liang had immediately ran down the stairs, Shangguan Lin laughed and pointed at Xiao Tong: "You, stop always bullying Zheng Liang."
Xiao Tong smiled merrily, "I didn't say anything, but it's not that big of a deal. If this servant didn't tease him, wouldn't you have lost a lot of fun? "
"Come on, don't set the rules. When Zheng Liang comes back, the two of you should also sit down and eat something. If you see something you like later, you can buy it. "It's only a matter of a few taels of silver."
Regardless of whether or not he was interested in everything here, Xiao Tong would never ruin his master's interest. Since Shangguan Lin had said so, he naturally had an excited look on his face. This servant will thank Master first! I heard that the lanterns of the fifteenth day of the first month are very clever. A few wishes on the lamp, then ignite, heaven will see people's wishes. I'm going to buy the most beautiful one, and write that I'll have an elbow to eat every day! "
This time, Shangguan Lin was truly smiling. "What are you talking about here, thinking about the Red Braised Elbow at Huifu House?
Xiao Tong made a gesture of wiping away his saliva, "That's true. There was nothing bad about coming to Shang An County, except that he could not eat Huifu Residence's soy sauce. "It's too bad."
Not just a braised elbow. This was a small county far away from the capital. Nothing could compare to the prosperity and prosperity of the capital. However … The little girl's clean smile flashed across Shangguan Lin's mind, and she also laughed out. But even if there was nothing, there was a smile that made him feel comfortable.
That night. Su Xinyu had witnessed the Flower Lantern Association in the ancient cities.
However, calling it a lantern festival was a bit of an exaggeration. At most, there were a few lanterns placed in front of their shops. Under the porches of large families and in front of the gates of small families, almost every household had a lantern. No matter how poor he was. A lamp must be lit that day. At the most, a wooden frame covered in window paper was fastened to an oil lamp. This was because everyone here believed that on the fifteenth day of the first month, after igniting the lanterns, one's desires could reach the Heavenly Court. Unless there was a funeral, this rule could not be broken on the last day of the new year.
Of course, there were also many lanterns being sold. However, most of the lanterns sold were very ordinary. The more complicated the work, the more expensive it would be. It was all to add to his family's business. There were also some who brought out riddles to attract people to guess them.
Su Xinyu was very interested in riddles. Although she knew nothing about the riddles of ancient times, she was still very good at watching the show.
The little girl's eyes sparkled as she looked at the lanterns. "Dogman is cheering himself on in his heart." "Little girl, when I go to the private school in the future, I will definitely win a lot of beautiful lanterns for you!"
Su Xinyu smiled and nodded. Hm! I believe in you! " Though I don't believe in you as much as I do in myself. She discovered that the mysteries of these lanterns were not too complicated. Most of the ordinary lanterns had only one word on each side. Half of them she could answer. However, there were very few people who guessed correctly. Except for a few youths who looked like they had gotten something from attending the private school. Those who were slightly older would not even nod their heads. Of course, there was another exception, and that was the man with the young woman by his side. It was a very enviable thing to win a lantern for his wife.
Madam Liu saw that the little girl's eyes were rolling, and knew that she was thinking of evil ideas again. But she was different from Madam Su, she had long ago discovered that the little girl was extremely intelligent. There are a lot of things that are definitely not just naive, but purposeful. Even though it's not a pleasant thing for a child of this age to have an ulterior motive. But it really had to be a matter of who did it. The girl had almost been killed twice in that family, and some changes were normal. Not to mention that a person's schemes were both good and bad. This girl was also very meticulous. The most important thing was her good heart. "With these as the premise, it is normal to be a little more cautious in order to make himself live a better life." "Little girl, don't you want to guess?
Su Xinyu was pondering about this problem just now. She felt that if she really went to win one of the lanterns, the people nearby would definitely be attracted by her actions. At that time, it wouldn't be a bad thing to make a name for herself. But it wasn't like she didn't have anything to worry about. After all, this era placed too many restrictions on women. Even if one was too young and did not attract the coveting of people with ill intentions, it was difficult to protect themselves. Can I? "
Madam Liu laughed: "Of course. As long as we girls are willing, nothing is impossible. Come, let's choose one. Seventh Grandmother will help you pick that piece of camouflage paper. "
