Chapter 174 Hibiscus Cake

"Hahahahaha, brother Mingjiu is too modest!"

He thought in his heart that this person had a good capacity for alcohol, and he had never lost before, but he never expected to lose to a little brother.

"Master Zhifu has praised you."

No better than Su Qinghe, he can be said to be very handy when talking about this kind of thing.

There is no awareness that I am not that powerful.

Instead, he received this honor upright, but in his opinion, this is really nothing to brag about.

"Come, try the hibiscus cake unique to my mansion."

Magistrate Yun said that the concubine next to him wanted to pass him a pastry, and he ate it with a smile.

Before eating, he looked around and ate it when he was sure no one was looking at him.

The little concubine shyly tapped his shoulder, and looked at Fu Li with an air.

It's a pity that Fu Li was concentrating on eating her favorite dish and didn't even look at her.

The concubine stomped her feet unwillingly, and was most annoyed by her appearance that this matter had nothing to do with her.

After Fu Li took several mouthfuls, he introduced it as if he had come to his senses.

"This dish is Yunnatto, you can try it, and the rose chicken dish, that is specially ordered by the master for you to eat."

Furong Cake is usually only available on weekends. This time, a distinguished guest came, so the old farmer who made this dish was called back.

For this reason, the wages have been doubled.

There is no way, only the ones made by the old farmer in the mansion are authentic.

What other people made is more or less interesting, but the old man really doesn't look like he cares about wages.

Obviously they have already come to the house to cook, but they don't look like they care about money.

Fu Li's point made Su Qinghe very curious, everyone in this mansion couldn't do face-changing skills.

It's really a change, she tasted the so-called hibiscus cake.

Well, it's really good. It tastes fluffy and soft, with a faint smell of hibiscus flower, which is not very pungent.

"Yes, but made of hibiscus flowers?"

She opened her mouth without hesitation, but it was rare to have a delicacy that suited her taste.

"Yes, each piece of hibiscus cake is made from 49 petals, but it takes a lot of work."

Similar to what I thought, it was really made of petals.

"The person who makes the pastry is here, can you let me meet him?"

"This old man is still there, but he has a bad temper."

She knew that Su Qinghe must be curious about how this thing was made, but the old man hid it so tightly that they didn't know.

Every time he made it, he would chase the rest of the kitchen out and bring in a bunch of freshly picked hibiscus flowers.

She also asked, and the answer she got was that it was made of 49 petals.

This is what he told himself because he accidentally helped him once.

Otherwise, she wouldn't even know this, and she wouldn't suggest Su Qinghe go there.

It would be dereliction of duty in their mansion to be kicked out later. Although she didn't know what Su Qinghe's identity was, she knew it would not be easy.

It's not that I'm afraid, but I'm just worried that it will be exposed at that time. After all, there are too many people and it will not be as easy to hide as it is now.

"It's okay, I just want to see what kind of demeanor the person who can make such a delicious pastry is."

She said without hesitation, and naturally saw what Fu Li meant, but wouldn't it be nice to dare to challenge.

Besides, she didn't ask him for advice in vain, and she didn't do worse than this, did she?
"Oh, I said sister, you can just tell this girl directly."

There was a concubine who spoke in a strange way, and she had long since disliked Fu Li.

He usually has a dead face, and he likes to ignore everyone.

This time, taking advantage of the master to bring them out, we have to find fault.

Let's just talk about this hibiscus cake, why they can only eat one plate every week, and it's only five yuan.

And she, Fu Li, can eat whenever she wants.

Jealousy makes people ugly, and the gang in their backyard have long been tired of it.

It's a pity that the master just doesn't want to stop her, and no matter how they blow the pillow, it won't work.

It's really pissing me off, why don't I seize the opportunity to go forward and take a bite.

Fu Li sneered, if you say they are stupid, you still don't believe it, it is obvious that the master attaches great importance to these few people, but in the end these two people dared to hit the gun.

Sure enough, the magistrate Yun became angry before she could answer.

"What are you talking about!"

He just thought that Ming Jiu was still here, so he deliberately brought two young, beautiful and more loving concubines over.

Who would have thought that Ming Jiu didn't even glance at it, so he could enjoy it by himself.

As a result, the two of them never stopped talking, and they didn't pay attention to any occasion.

Fortunately, before he came in, he had repeatedly warned him, and he felt a little annoyed.

And it was obvious that they were embarrassing Fu Li, and the old farmer knew it himself.

It's not easy to talk at all, even if he invites him in person, it doesn't matter.

Because he has made it clear that he will not discuss anything about cooking with people who are less skilled than himself.

That's why magistrate Yun got angry when he heard them say that.

The two people who didn't know how to wink, stared at each other, it was more than success than failure.

The two concubines lowered their heads guiltily, they were just too excited to forget.

Resentment flashed in their eyes, the master was protecting this Fu.

What is good about her, she is not as young as them, and she is not as beautiful as them.

Although the master often goes to the backyard, but there are always three days a month to accompany this woman.

No matter how hard they tried their best, they were still unshakable.

While making them feel a little frustrated, they also became more jealous of her.

If you have a face without a face, and a figure that doesn't stand out, I really don't know how the master likes it.

The two of them shut their mouths obediently. After all, eating this bowl of rice is to learn to read people's faces.

Usually, if you make a fuss, maybe the master will say that you are naughty, but if you make a fuss now, you will dance on the master's head, thinking that you are not dying fast enough.

Fu Li chuckled lightly, "What my sister said is wrong, it would be bad if I offend the nobleman."

Two concubines dare not speak out, an old woman, why!
Turning around, Fu Li said to Su Qinghe again.

"If Miss Su likes it, she can invite the old man here."

"Naturally."

He said that he was an old farmer, but he was really an old farmer, only to see that the man was dressed in rough clothes.

It's summer now, just looking at it feels like grinding the skin.

"Greetings to the magistrate, madam."

As soon as he came, he saluted first, maybe this kind of scene is too common.

"But what can you do with me?"

He's ready to pack up and go home, and he only needs to come once every seven days.

Prepare the amount you will eat for the next week, then you can take the money and leave until the next week.

Unless there are some very important people to be received, he will be asked to come over again, so that the guests can taste the freshly baked hibiscus cake.

Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, this was also promised from the beginning.

So I had no choice but to finish and go home quickly, after all, it looked like the weather was going to rain.

The fish at home have not been fed yet, so he is a little anxious.

Being called over suddenly felt extremely bad, but there was nothing I could do about it.

Now it can only be said that he is holding back his temper and not getting angry. He is not worried that if he loses this job, he will not be able to find another one.

With his craftsmanship, isn't it easy? It's just that this place is close to where he lives, so he doesn't want to go to such trouble to find it again.
