Datang romantic little landlord

Many guests shook their heads secretly, thinking that Wang Renyou's behavior this time was really ignorant.

But what Wang Ziyu asked, although it was rude, did indeed ask the hearts of many people.Until now, everyone has not figured out what the congratulatory gift from Uncle Hu County is.

If it is a congratulatory poem, shouldn't it be written on paper, mounted and sent out?What is this big white thing in front of me?

Li Wangyou was not annoyed, and smiled at Yu Chang: "Brother Jingming, please help me get a clean long knife, and let your servants prepare some dishes."

What he said made the monk Zhang Er even more puzzled, how could he even need a knife?

"Uncle Huxian, what do you want a knife for?" Yu Chang asked in confusion.

"Divide and eat!"

"What? Ziyou, don't mess around!" Li Er was beside him. Hearing his words, he couldn't help it: "Is this food? I think it looks like jade and it's not jade, although I can't tell what it is. What is made, but how is this eating?"

Including Yu Shinan, all the guests were also stunned by Li Wangyou's words.

Such a beautiful object, is it edible?

Only Wang Ziyu burst out laughing, and his words were sarcasm: "Uncle Huxian, you only gave me food for the [-]th birthday banquet of Duke Yu? I have heard that Uncle Huxian has a good way of making money, and now it seems that it is true, really. He is too good at housekeeping.”

He was mocking Li Wangyou's stinginess, Yu Shinan's [-]th birthday, your county uncle from Hu County sent you a worthless food, it really makes people laugh.

Li Wangyou ignored Wang Ziyu, as if he didn't hear his ridicule.

He smiled and cupped his hands towards Yu Shinan and Li Ergong: "Gong Yu, Uncle, this is really food. I call it a birthday cake, and it is eaten on birthdays."

"Oh? Really food? Then why is it eaten on the birthday? What is the saying? What is the cake? But steamed cake?" Li Er asked curiously.

Li Er's words made Li Wangyou stupid to ask, he had never thought about this question.

It is common for future generations to eat cakes on their birthdays, but why do they eat cakes?He never thought about it.

Yes, why do you have to eat it on your birthday?Why is it called a birthday cake?

It seems that the birthday cake was introduced to China from the West after the Revolution of [-], and its origin is probably related to Western legends.

Since ancient times in China, there has been a custom of eating longevity noodles on birthdays, which is to hope for a long life.Another thing is to eat boiled eggs and peel off the shell of the egg, which symbolizes peeling off the bad past and giving you a new look.

But the birthday cake made by the beautiful boss, how should I explain it?

He couldn't help but looked up at the beautiful boss beside him, only to see that the goddess was also dumbfounded, apparently she hadn't thought about it either...

Faced with Li Er's question, Li Wangyou could only roll his eyes and start to make up things.

"Uh, this, this birthday cake is round, which symbolizes the sun and the moon. It means that it is as constant as the moon, as rising as the sun, and as long as Nanshan.

Li Wangyou's forehead was dripping with sweat, so he made up such an unreliable explanation.

Fortunately, neither Yu Shinan nor Li Er bothered about this issue.

After finding out that he and his beautiful boss almost had an oolong due to the habits of later generations, Li Wangyou didn't dare to do things like lighting candles and blowing out candles.

Those are Western traditions, which are at odds with Chinese traditions.

Since ancient times in China, people have used the term "the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry" or "the death of a person is like a lamp extinguished" to describe the end of life.

When using candles, snip them with scissors, not blow them out.

Blowing out the lamp and pulling out the wax is obviously not a good sign in China.

If Li Wangyou followed the example of the later generations and asked Yu Shinan to light candles on the cake, and then made a wish to blow it out, he would really be making himself uncomfortable. Wouldn't that mean he was cursing Yu Shinan?

Li Wangyou would not do such an extremely stupid thing.

The long knife was soon brought by the servants of the Yu Mansion, and Li Wangyou presented it to Yu Shinan with both hands: "Duke Yu, please cut this birthday cake yourself."

Holding the knife, Yu Shinan looked at the unbelievably beautiful cake, especially the birthday poem on it, which made the old man reluctant to do it.

"Ziyou, is that the way to cut it? This old man can't bear it. How about forgetting it? Let the old man appreciate it for a while."

"Grand Yu, this birthday cake cannot be stored. It must be eaten in time, otherwise the cream will melt. It has been covered with ice to prevent the cream from melting."

Persuaded by him in this way, Yu Shinan reluctantly raised his long knife, and with Yu Chang's assistance, began to cut the cake.And let the maidservants of the Yu Mansion distribute the cakes to the guests present.

The cake is delicious. Even in later generations, people who are accustomed to eating various delicacies still like it very much, let alone the Tang people who tasted the taste of cake for the first time.

Later historians once joked that the reason why the Tang Dynasty is the Tang Dynasty is because they like to eat sugar...

This is of course a joke, but Tang Ren really likes all kinds of desserts.

Especially at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the technology of making sucrose was just introduced. In the Tang Dynasty, sugar was still a luxury item, and it was even more sought after by nobles.

A group of guests received the trays of cakes from the maidservants of the Yu Mansion, hesitated a little, picked up the spoons one after another, dug out a piece, and put it into their mouths.

The rich milk fragrance is soft and attractive in the mouth, and it has its own unique flavor, which is unforgettable.

There is no need to chew at all, it melts in the mouth, leaving a faint fragrance between the lips and teeth.

Aftertaste carefully, the thick creamy breath swirls in the mouth, sweet and fragrant...

The birthday cake carefully made by the beautiful boss instantly conquered everyone present.For a moment, the lobby of the Yu Mansion fell silent, no one spoke, only the sound of gobbling food, and the sound of spoons hitting plates.

Even Wang Renyou, who had always seen Li Wangyou's nose was not his nose, and his eyes were not his eyes, and his son Wang Ziyu didn't bother to trouble Li Wangyou at this time.One of them was holding a plate of cream cake, eating it with great joy.

"Ziyou, your birthday cake is really delicious. I haven't eaten it so comfortably for a long time. Thank you Ziyou for making this birthday cake for me. I like it very much."

Yu Shinan is getting old, although he is in good health, but the problems that old people should have are naturally indispensable.

Such as tooth loss, dim eyesight, inconvenient legs and so on.

Although Datang also has the technology of inserting dentures, it is not so easy to use after all.On weekdays, Yu Shinan mainly eats soft food.This sweet and creamy cream cake naturally suits his appetite very well.

He usually has a poor appetite, but today he made an exception and ate two large plates of cake. Seeing Yu Chang smiling happily, he repeatedly bowed his hands to Li Wangyou to thank him.

Facing Yu Shinan's thanks, Li Wangyou hurriedly pushed his beautiful boss to the front of the stage: "Grand Yu is absurd, this birthday cake is actually not a gift from me, but a gift from my cousin to Duke Yu. In order to make this cake , she has worked hard."

"Oh? It turned out to be Mrs. Su's plain hand spoon. Haha, the old man thanked the wrong person. Thank you Mrs. Su for your kindness. I appreciate it." Yu Shinan laughed with his beard.

Seeing that Li Wangyou had actually told the truth, the beautiful boss could only look at him helplessly, bowed down and gave Yu Shinan a blessing: "The little girl really can't be praised by Duke Yu, you are being polite."

Everyone was full of praise for the birthday cake, and many female family members in the side hall were going to ask the beautiful boss how the cake was made, and wanted to learn a lesson.

At this moment, Wang Ziyu's discordant voice came out again, causing Yu Shinan to frown.

"It turns out that this birthday cake is not a congratulatory gift from Uncle Huxian? Haha, I said how could Uncle Huxian be so stingy and give a piece of food as a congratulatory gift. Then I wonder what congratulatory gift Uncle Huxian prepared for Duke Yu? How about Let me wait to open my eyes?"
