Chapter 106 Dried Plum Vegetable Cake III
Chapter 106 Umeboshi Pancake (3)
"In today's funeral customs of the Jiangnan generation, is the high stool next to the coffin a long stool or a short stool?" Wen Mingtang looked at Lin Fei and asked seriously, "I have seen in Chang'an City these days that the custom in Chang'an City is to place a long stool.
Stool, I don’t know the Jiangnan generation..."
"Short stool." Lin Fei said calmly, "I have been to Jiangnan, and it is slightly different from Chang'an."
Wen Mingtang suddenly realized what he said and said "Oh".
Lin Fei looked at the girl's thoughtful look, paused for a moment, thought about it, and then said: "Your ex-fiancé is not suitable for you."
The girl nodded in agreement, her eyes flickering slightly, as if she was thinking about something. After a moment of pause, she said, "I think so."
When Lin Fei saw this, he added: "I have never been in contact with him, but I think he is sentimental and cowardly, and he does not seem to be a responsible person."
The girl nodded again, paused, rubbed her chin, and said, "More than that, it's quite shameless."
The dream that had troubled her for a long time, although there had been speculations from letters "personally addressed by sister Mingtang" before, it had not been confirmed yet.
At the moment, Lin Fei's words made her sure of one thing. The "young master" mentioned by the two maids who killed the original owner in the dream was probably the talented scholar Ye.
She closed her eyes and could probably guess what the original owner had experienced.
After a lot of bumps and bruises, I finally got out of the palace, without any relatives, and coincidentally, I went to the south of the Yangtze River with the letters that only missed her, and then I met the passionate and cowardly Ye Da.
Talented man.
She didn't feel any unnecessary emotions in the girl in the dream, and she didn't even have any feelings for the great scholar Ye.
She could imagine what it would be like for an unaccompanied and helpless girl to go to the south of the Yangtze River and meet the passionate Ye Dacai. The girl in the dream had just grown up, and with Ye Dacai’s temperament, she couldn’t help but
It’s no surprise that he let his former fiancée go.
That's fine if you like her and have the responsibility, or if you know you can't marry a girl, it's fine to let her go voluntarily.
On the one hand, he refused to let her go, and on the other hand, he provoked a powerful and powerful daughter.
He knew that he had provoked the daughter of a powerful man, but he refused to let her go. He even resorted to a trick of "faking death". This kind of thing would bring disaster, and no one with any sense in the house would agree to it. He himself
It’s not like he was the one who said everything in the house, so it’s not surprising that the people in the house took action.
Seeing Wen Mingtang's calm look, Lin Fei retracted his gaze from the letter and glanced at the incense burner.
Just when Wen Mingtang was waiting for him to ask about her family's past, she heard Lin Fei suddenly ask her: "What would a girl who suddenly lost her parents do without any relatives?"
Are you asking her? Wen Mingtang was stunned for a moment, recalled the memory of the original owner, and said: "At first, I would secretly hide in bed and cry, but later I only dared to suppress my sadness in my heart, and I had no time to think about this, because
Try to survive."
In life, isn’t what ordinary people want just to live?
Lin Fei frowned, obviously not very satisfied with her answer.
Seeing this, Wen Mingtang thought for a while and said, "Everyone is different. If Lin Shaoqing wants to ask others, he shouldn't ask me."
When Lin Fei heard this, he paused, thoughtfully, and said, "It's indeed different. Your family suffered a disaster, but hers is different."
Who is she referring to? Wen Mingtang looked at Lin Fei curiously, but Lin Fei didn't say much, just shook his head, turned and left.
On the Dragon Boat Festival, at this hour, he is still staying in Dali Temple! Don’t Lin Shaoqing’s family members know how to speak? It’s not like her, who is alone. Wen Mingtang thought to himself.
Just as Wen Mingtang thought, Lin Fei was indeed questioned when he returned to the Jingyun Marquis Mansion.
"Why are you coming back so late?" Marquis Jingyun's wife, Mrs. Zheng, finally waited until she arrived. She made a special trip to Lin Fei's yard and said, "The family is having dinner, but you are not here."
"Didn't I tell someone to come back?" Lin Fei heard this and said, "There is a case at hand to deal with."
"Case, case, case, case, case, case, case?" Mrs. Zheng glanced at Lin Fei complainingly, but after all, she felt sorry for her son. Before Lin Fei could speak, she said, "Twilight food..."
"Have eaten the evening meal." Lin Fei said, paused, met Zheng's gaze, and said solemnly, "What mother said is wrong. The criminal will not stop committing the case just because of the festival. The case at hand is a bit troublesome.
, if it is not resolved as soon as possible, people will still die."
Zheng was choked by Lin Fei's words. Looking at her son's calm and cold expression, she couldn't help but hold her forehead. Finally, she sighed helplessly and said, "Afei! You are always on the case.
Let’s start thinking about marriage!”
When Lin Fei heard this, he glanced at Mrs. Zheng lightly and said, "Mother, brother, you are not in a hurry. My matter is not in a hurry."
The ball is kicked very fast!
Zheng: "..."
After Zheng's words were blocked, Zheng shook her head helplessly and turned around to go to her eldest son's yard.
…
The morning meal on the first day after the Dragon Boat Festival is prune cakes. The prunes are the leftovers wasted by Master Sun yesterday.
Wen Mingtang rolled out the dough filled with prunes and vegetables with a rolling pin, put it into the cylindrical cake oven and baked it.
Many people in Dali Temple have seen this cylindrical cake oven. The first few public chefs and even Sun and Wang have used this large cylindrical cake oven.
However, the baked pancakes were not very good. When he saw Wen Mingtang baking pancakes in the large pancake oven, even Liu Yuan, who had come to get the morning meal, subconsciously stopped and said to Wen Mingtang: "Master Wen,
This cake..."
Wen Mingtang glanced at him. It happened that the first batch of prune and vegetable cakes was almost finished baking. She opened the stove cover, looked at the prune and vegetable cakes attached to the furnace wall, and handed the prune and vegetable cakes that she took out from the oven over.
The aroma of roasted prunes mixed with wheat and sesame filled the air, and the people waiting in line behind the hook moved their index fingers.
Pancakes are very common. Not only can they be found everywhere on the streets, but even public chefs have made them several times.
However, this is the first time I have seen this pancake stuffed with prunes and vegetables.
Someone poked his head and looked at Liu Yuan, who was the first to get the cake. Even through the oil paper package, the freshly baked plum and vegetable cake was still very hot to the touch.
The tongue-shaped Umeboshi Pancake has a paper-thin crust with a layer of toasted white sesame sprinkled on it. Through the paper-thin crust, you can see a layer of Umeboshi inside.
Regardless of the fact that it was hot to his hands, Liu Yuan bit into it under the envious gazes of his colleagues.
With a "click" sound, the crispness of the pie crust can be heard from the sound. Under the crispy pie crust is a filling full of pickled prunes. The crust is crispy, but the pickled pickles inside are soft and soft, crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside.
Soft, salty with a hint of sweetness, and a unique taste that makes people want it.
Liu Yuan was happily eating the prune and vegetable cakes when Zhao You suddenly rushed in from outside the kitchen, grabbed him and hurried out: "Eat while walking! Another person died!"
