Chapter 16: The Admiration of the Maiden

Qiaoguo is also known as Qixi fruit, also known as Qiqiao fruit, which is the festival food of Qiqiao Festival. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In addition to eating, there are also women who will use colorful threads to wear Qiaoguo and throw it to the roof, on the night of Qixi Festival, let the magpie lead to build a bridge, and meet at night across the Cowherd and Weaver Girl Magpie Bridge.

The method of making Qiaoguo is not complicated, the main ingredients are sesame oil, flour, frosting, and of course, it would be better if you could add a little more honey.

Just now, Xiaohuan has already told Li Yiqiaoguo how to do it, first put the icing sugar, that is, white sugar, in a pot and melt it into syrup, then mix it with flour and sesame seeds, and use molds to expand the mixed dough into various shapes, and fry it in sesame oil.

Flour and honey are common ingredients, as for the price of sesame oil and frosting is more expensive, ordinary people in the village do not always have it, and only every year during the begging festival or the New Year will they be willing to scrape together money to buy some.

These things are all made up by the girls in the village who have not yet come out of the pavilion, and only they will pay so much attention to the begging festival, Li Yi skimmed the clay pot filled with sesame oil, "Isn't it just to fry a Qiaoguo, you can use so much oil?" What a waste! ”

Take an empty clay pot out of the kitchen and fold it in half.

"Sugar...... It's not good to eat too many sweets, and it's easy to get tooth decay...... just like that, and the jar of frosting next to it is half empty.

"The quality of the flour looks pretty good, and if each piece of fruit is a little smaller, it should save a lot of money...... There is just no food at home. About one-third of the flour was retained by Li Yi.

After all the preparations were made, Li Yi began to make peace.

This whole set of actions he had already done smoothly, and after making the noodles, he glanced at the Qiaoguo mold that was put aside...... Too ugly, no!

As soon as his mind moved, a modern instruction book on how to make pastries immediately appeared in front of him, countless paragraphs of complicated information poured into his mind, Li Yi closed his eyes and digested for a while, cut a small piece of dough, his fingers kept kneading, and after a while, a model of a jade rabbit appeared in his hand.

With this anti-heaven cheat in his head, the time for theory to be transformed into practice has been greatly shortened, and Li Yi at this moment, like a pastry chef with many years of experience, has fast movements under his hands, and one by one dough is in his hands, and after a short period of time, it will become a vivid little animal.

With the proficiency of the movements, the shape of a woman in palace clothes gradually appeared on his hand, the woman looked up at the sky, and the fairy skirt fluttered, as if she would feather away in the next second.

The face woman even depicts her demeanor very carefully, if you distinguish it carefully, you can vaguely see that this woman's appearance is faintly similar to Liu Ruyi.

There is no way, of course it is impossible for Li Yi to come up with the image of a weaver girl out of thin air, there is no conjecture in the world, it must be with the help of a familiar person or thing, Li Yi often sees Xiaohuan and Liu Ruyi sisters, among these three people, Liu Ruyi's temperament is more in line with it.

"Uncle, sesame oil...... Why is there so much left? ”

Xiaohuan, who had just walked into the kitchen from the outside, looked at the fact that there was obviously too much sesame oil in the pot, and looked at Li Yi with wide eyes and asked.

"There's not a lot of oil, just enough to do." Li Yi pinched the last skillful fruit, clapped his hands, touched the little girl's pretty face, left a white mark, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can handle the next thing yourself......

"Uncle......"

The little maid's dissatisfied tail note dragged on for a long time, and the aunt sometimes had the same heart as a child, always teasing herself...... With flour on his face, Xiaohuan was about to go to the side to wash his face, and when he got on the Qiaoguo that Li Yi had just pinched, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but widen, her footsteps stopped there, and she cried out with a "ah".

"Xiaohuan, is the fruit ready?"

Several girls of her age walked in from outside, and a moment later, a small exclamation sounded in the kitchen.

"These coincidences are so beautiful, I can't bear to put them in the pot......"

"Xiaohuan, did you pinch these things, when did you learn them?"

"This is Jade Rabbit, this is Chang'e, and this ...... It should be the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd! ”

"These are even more beautiful than what I saw in the bazaar, and the weaver girl they pinched doesn't look good at all, and it costs five cents a piece!"

There are rows of clever fruits neatly placed on the board, which are different from the molds they have prepared, or animals, or characters, all of which are brand new shapes, and those animals are all cute and cute, which is exactly the type that girls love.

What surprised them even more was that those vivid characters, not only had all kinds of clothes, but also their expressions and demeanors were portrayed very expressively, exquisitely, unprecedentedly.

Xiaohuan has been drowned in everyone's praise, although these coincidences are not made by her, but the young lady said not to let outsiders know that it is her uncle who is cooking on weekdays, even though the little maid is a little embarrassed in her heart, she did not open her mouth to explain.

My uncle is my own uncle, and I still praise Xiaohuan, it's the same......

The little girl thought so sweetly in her heart.

"Hey, Xiaohuan, that ...... Isn't it your uncle? When Xiaohuan's heart was bubbling, a young girl suddenly came to her side, pointed to the handsome young man who was reading a book in the corner of the yard, and asked in a low voice.

When the rest of the girls heard this, they also gathered around.

For the aunt of Xiaohuan's family, who has a very strong sense of presence in the village recently, the girl's heart has long been full of curiosity.

This is still an era where everything is inferior, but in the era of high reading, scholars are like national first-class protected animals, and they can't meet so many when they go all over ten miles and eight villages.

Girls generally like scholars, which is almost an eternal law in ancient times, even if it is a poor talent, there are a large number of young girls who are willing to commit, it doesn't matter what life they live now, what they value is the potential of readers.

In case I am lucky enough to be in high school in the future, and I will be promoted to a knighthood, a good day is coming, even if this may be very slim, but it is enough for many women to go forward and succeed.

Of course, the only person who reads in Liuye Village, Mr. Qin, who is over the age of six, is not within the scope of the girl's interest.

Handsome, knowledgeable, and gives people a feeling of being crepe, not at all like those rude men in the village, and the interesting stories told to the children have long been spread in the circle of girls...... For girls who have never seen a serious reader, Li Yi has almost fulfilled all their fantasies.

In the willow leaf village, there are not a few women who admire him.

It's just that no one dares to rob the owner of the village, and all the women can do is hide in a corner where they can't see and peek with a red face.

"Ahh

Li Yi, who was holding a book in his hand and seemed to be reading hard, but was actually in a state of fugue, sneezed for no reason, scratched the back of his head with some doubts, and muttered: "It's only July, is the weather getting cooler so quickly?" ”
