Mr. Xuan's substitute little wife

The next morning, Xia Luoxi got up early and prepared a hearty breakfast.

"Next time, let my brother do these things."

Ou Luoyi originally planned to go downstairs to prepare a breakfast for Xia Luoxi. When he went downstairs, he found that Xia Luoxi had already prepared breakfast.

"Brother, I'll just make breakfast. It'll help me practice my cooking skills."

Xia Luoxi knew that her brother loved her and would definitely not let her do these things. Since she had decided to start a new chapter in her life, she couldn't let her brother worry about her anymore.

"Okay, then you can have lunch at Lan Xue's place, and I'll pick you up in the evening."

Ou Luoyi did not refuse anymore. He might not go to see her at noon. After all, he still had to chase his wife.

Xia Luoxi nodded excitedly. She hadn't seen Sister Lan Xue for a long time. She wanted to talk to her about the past when she wasn't studying.

After breakfast, Ou Luoyi sent Xia Luoxi to Lan Xue, gave her a few instructions, and left.

"Sister Lanxue, what are we going to learn today?"

As soon as Xia Luoxi entered Lan Xue's studio, she couldn't help but feel curious about today's teaching. After all, she had wanted to be a pastry chef a long time ago.

"Make some of your signature desserts first, and let me see what you can do now."

Lan Xue doesn't know what Xia Luoxi can do yet, so she can't teach her from scratch.

Under Lan Xue's guidance, Xia Luoxi quickly became familiar with the placement of the items, and then planned to make some of the small cookies she had made for Meng Bai and the others.

Lan Xue silently looked at Xia Luoxi in front of her. Her technique was not that good yet. She could practice more.

I looked at the steps Xia Luoxi followed and found that there was basically no problem. She should have learned them from the steps on the Internet. The weights were also quite accurate.

Although Lan Xue watched every step and did every step herself, why did the cake come out weird?

"Xiao Xi, what's wrong?"

Lan Xue went to get some things from next door and saw Xia Luoxi frowning at the baking tray.

"Sister Lanxue, something seems strange."

Xia Luoxi looked at the food in front of her, some of which were burnt and some of which were not even cooked through, and couldn't help but feel a headache. How could this happen?

"Xiao Xi, you didn't adjust the temperature correctly, and the position of your baking tray is not right either."

Lan Xue's eyes lingered on the biscuits for a moment, and then she saw what Xia Luoxi's problem was.

"It seems like that, but does this also need to be placed in a fixed position?"

Xia Luoxi was well aware of Lan Xue's attainments in dessert making. However, with just a glance, she knew where her problem lay, which made her feel a deep awe involuntarily surge in her heart.

"Different oven sizes will have an effect on the cookies, but the only thing that remains constant is the temperature before you put the cookies in. Did you preheat it?"

"I understand. The purpose of preheating is to make the temperature in the oven the same. This way, it won't be like I put the ingredients in first and then heat them, causing some places to be hotter and some places to be colder. This ensures that the ingredients are heated evenly in the oven, and they will taste good when baked!"

For the first time, Xia Luoxi realized how important it is to preheat the oven! After preheating, the oven temperature will be more uniform, and the cookies baked will taste the same, not like now, some are good and some are bad.

When Lan Xue saw that Xia Luoxi could understand, she simply tidied up the workbench and began to teach Xia Luoxi how to bake cookies.

Xia Luoxi wanted to take out a notebook to write down some proportions of the recipe. "Sister Lanxue, wait a moment. I'll take the notebook and write down the proportions."

"As for the proportions, you don't have to remember them for now. I'll send you a file with the proportions and ingredients later. You can print it out and look at it later. But remember that you still need to practice more and don't rely too much on notes."

After Lan Xue put on her gloves, Xia Luoxi discovered that she didn't rely much on electronic scales when making desserts, but preferred to use measuring cups to measure the ingredients. Xia Luoxi thought, "She must have practiced many times to be so skilled that she can make delicious desserts even without an electronic scale."

Xia Luoxi spent the whole morning practicing making cookies with Lan Xue. It was the first time she felt that the morning passed particularly quickly.

She discovered that when Lan Xue made things, she actually relied more on her previous experience rather than following the formula proportions. This made Xia Luoxi want to learn from Lan Xue even more.

When Xia Luoxi saw that the cookies she baked this time were not burnt at all, she immediately understood that the steps she followed were a little different from what Lan Xue taught her.

"Okay, you can practice this method again in the afternoon. Let's go eat first."

Lan Xue knew that Xia Luoxi had a high level of comprehension, and she would never force her apprentice to study without even eating, so she suggested that they go eat first.

Xia Luoxi thought Lan Xue was going to take her out to eat or order takeout, but she didn't expect that the lunch was delivered by Lan Xue's mother.

"You must be Xia Luoxi, Lan Xue's childhood playmate, right? Oh, our Lan Xue is always talking about you."

Lan Xue's mother knew that Lan Xue was coming to teach Xia Luoxi. She wanted to come with her in the morning, but she was afraid of disturbing her. She could only come to see Lan Xue under the opportunity of delivering food to her.

"Hello, Auntie, just call me Xiaoxi"

Aunt Lan's enthusiasm made Xia Luoxi feel a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Xi, Auntie doesn't know what you like to eat, so I just prepared some food."

Aunt Lan carefully arranged the food while asking Xia Luoxi about her recent situation. "Xiaoxi, I heard from Lan Xue that you also found your family."

"Auntie Lan, it's okay, I'm not picky about food"

Xia Luoxi looked at Lan Xue a little embarrassedly and found that she was suffering from social phobia again.

"Mom, don't scare Xiaoxi"

Lan Xue actually knew when she was little that Xia Luoxi had some social anxiety. When Lan's mother wanted to follow her in the morning, she was afraid that Xia Luoxi would be embarrassed. Unexpectedly, she followed her again at noon.

"Xiao Xi, Lan Xue has been thinking about you for many years. When I saw you, I thought you looked gentle and kind."

Lan's mother obviously didn't take Lan Xue's words to heart. She still maintained her enthusiasm, approached Xia Luoxi, and talked to her happily.

"Thank you, auntie"

"Xiao Xi, do you have a boyfriend?"

Xia Luoxi had just taken a few bites of food when Lan's mother frightened her with just one sentence.

"Mom, Xiaoxi is a guest, it's not okay for you to do this"

"Xiao Xi looks like my daughter, not a guest. If you want to be a guest, then you are the guest."

Although Lan Xue did not grow up with her mother when she was a child, her mother and she have been like best friends for decades since she came back from the orphanage.

"Auntie, I don't have a boyfriend yet."

Xia Luoxi was actually very happy to see that Lan Xue had such a good relationship with her mother. If her mother were still alive, she would definitely be so close to her.
