092 The Nine Teeth of the Ancient Pig Bajie...
"Miss, what should I do if I eat the note? The butler stared at the old man who pinched the candy man and stared at it tightly, I think we're in trouble now! Back at the place where the old man who pinched the candy in the front yard performed his skills, Xiao Cui whispered to Ouyang Xin worriedly.

"Well, let me think about it!" Hearing Xiao Cui's worries, Ouyang Xinyu couldn't help but slow down and began to ponder.
"Hurry up, the butler is coming up!" Just as Ouyang Xinyu was falling into deep thought, Xiao Cui suddenly saw the figure of the housekeeper out of the corner of her eyes urging Ouyang Xinyu to speak.
Watching Yahuan and Ouyang Xinyu leave one after another, the old man who pinched the candy man was secretly happy in his heart, and he thought that he was about to catch up with this destined girl. Unexpectedly, just a few minutes later, he saw Yahuan covering half of his red face and Ouyang Xinyu hurriedly walking towards him, followed by the steward with a blue face. The old man who pinched his head suddenly shouted in his heart, it seems that something is wrong! He really didn't expect that the housekeeper of the Shangguan Mansion was such a powerful person.
"Old man, can you help me pinch another Zhu Bajie? I gave it to Xiaocui just now, and she ate it so much that she didn't even have any bones left, and now I want another one for myself! Ouyang Xinyu suddenly had an idea, and begged the old man who pinched the candy.
"Pinch another Zhu Bajie for this girl, okay! Girl, you wait, the old student will pinch you right away! Fortunately, this old man who pinched candy was not an ordinary person, as soon as he heard Ouyang Xinyu's words, he knew the meaning of her words. I'm afraid that things are not so smooth, and I was disturbed by the black-faced housekeeper halfway!
Ouyang Xinyu stared intently at the hands of the old man who pinched the candy, and saw that the old man who made the sugar man put the syrup of the sugar man on the stove and heated it and began to boil the sugar. I saw him skillfully pick up a ball of wheat candy, knead the dough, draw, blow, shape, and finally insert a bamboo stick, a total of more than 10 seconds, a lifelike Zhu Bajie candy man is ready.
There are many details that need to be paid attention to in the process of making a sugar man, and if these details are not grasped well, the quality of the sugar man will not be high, and the most important of them is the control of temperature. After the syrup leaves the heated tin box, the temperature will drop rapidly, and finally it will become a hard lump of sugar, so it is necessary to knead the sugar ball quickly before hardening, drawing and blowing, and only the right temperature can ensure that the sugar ball can expand evenly.
"Old man, this Zhu Bajie's belly is so big, why is it empty inside?" This time, I didn't see the old man put the note in Baizhu Bajie's stomach. Could it be that this old man didn't understand what she meant? After pinching the sugar man from the old man's hand, Ouyang Xinyu asked him in confusion.
"Oh, speaking of Zhu Bajie in this "Journey to the West"! He had nothing in it except a belly full of fat. Although he has the title of Generalissimo Tianpeng, he is not as capable of seventy changes as Sun Wukong. He went to the west with Tang Seng to learn scriptures, relying on his nine-toothed nail rake! After listening to Ouyang Xinyu's question, the old man who pinched the candy man stroked his white beard and replied to her with a gentle smile.
"Miss, why didn't this old gentleman put the note in Zhu Bajie's stomach?" Just now, when the old man was pinching the candy man, Xiao Cui girl also stood by and watched carefully, until the end, she didn't see the old man stuffing the note into the belly of the Bajie sugar man again, she asked Ouyang Xinyu anxiously.
"Butler, I've seen enough of this candy man's work, and I'm tired of watching, so I'll go back to my room to rest! Go and tell my Ama to reward this old man who pinched the candy and let him go!" Ouyang Xinyu pretended not to answer Xiao Cui's words mysteriously, but turned her head to the butler who was standing behind them with a dark face.
"Butler, the old student's work has been performed, and the old student should go back to the street to beg for a living, so I will leave, and the labor housekeeper will talk to the old man!" The old man who pinched the candy man quickly packed up his sugar man burden, walked up to the butler, and said to him with a smile.
"Xiaocui, I'm tired, go, accompany me back to the room to rest!" Ouyang Xin pulled Xiaocui's sleeve and motioned for her to follow her. This Xiaocui is also clever, seeing the young lady pulling her, she followed behind her without saying anything, and the two of them entered Shangguan Wan'er's boudoir door one after the other.
As the figures of Ouyang Xinyu and Xiaocui girl faded out of his sight, the old man who pinched the candy man took the reward given to him by the housekeeper and left the compound of Shangguan Mansion satisfied. And the housekeeper, who has always had a black face, sent the old man who pinched the candy out of the mansion like a plague god.
"Miss, such a good opportunity, why did you just let the old man who pinched the candy go away? Don't you want to go back to modern times? As soon as she stepped into the room, before she could close the door, Xiao Cui asked Ouyang Xinyu anxiously.
"Xiao Cui, hurry up and close the door! Remember to see if the butler came after our ass? Ouyang Xinyu walked into the room and instructed Xiaocui Xiaotou with a smile on her face.
"Miss, I said you were stupid by the housekeeper? Still scared? Why didn't Xiaocui answer your questions? Thinking that the old man who pinched the candy man might have gone away, Ouyang Xinyu still looked calm and relaxed, Xiao Cui was about to die, she asked Ouyang Xinyu puzzled.
"Xiaocui, hurry up and close the door, and by the way, look outside to see if the housekeeper has followed? I'll sue you naturally! Seeing that the little cui girl didn't listen to her orders, but asked her vigorously, she patiently said to the little cui girl again.
"Okay, look, there's no one out there!" Hearing Ouyang Xinyu say this, could it be that this note was not in the stomach of Zhu Bajie Candy, but hidden in other places? Thinking of this, Xiao Cui obediently poked her head out and looked at the corridors at both ends of the door, and then replied after gently closing the door.
"Xiaocui, when the old man pinched the candy man just now, I stared at his hand for a long time, but I didn't notice that he stuffed the note into Zhu Bajie's stomach. I was in a hurry, and I asked him why this Zhu Bajie's stomach was empty? Ouyang Xinyu told Xiaocui about her mood just now.
"Yes, I heard Miss's question too! However, the old man said that this Zhu Bajie's stomach was originally empty! When Xiao Cui heard this, she was thinking, couldn't Miss have made a mistake, maybe there is no such thing as a note at all? Or maybe the old man didn't know that the note had already been eaten by me? Xiao Cui also expressed the doubts in her heart.
"Yes, he later said that although Zhu Bajie has the title of Generalissimo Tianpeng, he is not as good as Sun Wukong. He went to the west with Tang Seng to learn scriptures, relying on his nine-toothed nail rake! Speaking of this, Ouyang Xinyu suddenly became excited.
"You mean to say that he hid the note in Zhu Bajie's nail rake?" Xiao Cui explained the mystery in one word, and she asked Ouyang Xinyu.
"No, Zhu Bajie's nail rake is made of paper strips at all, but there is a thick layer of sugar wrapped in it! Because, when the old man was a sugar man just now, the housekeeper had been standing behind and staring at him, and he had no chance to put the note into Zhu Bajie's stomach. Ouyang Xin said to Xiao Cui analytically.
"So, he just made it look like Zhu Bajie's nine-toothed nail rake and embedded it in the sugar man?" Xiao Cui stared at the sugar man nail rake in Ouyang Xinyu's hand, her eyes lit up, and she said excitedly.
"That's a very correct answer!" This time, Ouyang Xinyu replied to Xiao Cui with satisfaction.
"So, what are you waiting for? Let's take the note from the rake and take a look! After listening to Ouyang Xinyu's analysis, Xiao Cui suddenly felt very excited. It seems that this matter is not related to Ouyang Xinyu, but has something to do with her.
"The problem is, this candy man is so sticky and sweet that I don't want to eat it at all!" Ouyang Xinyu looked at the sugar man and said worriedly.
"What's so hard about this? Leave it to me! Xiao Cui said to Ouyang Xinyu on her own initiative.
"You've already eaten one just now, and you've eaten the note, and you're not dirty? Don't you feel disgusted? Ouyang Xinyu asked Xiao Cui uncertainly.
"I'm not afraid!" Xiao Cui replied firmly.
