Chapter 67: Boiling milk tea and eating lamb skewers around the fire
Su Yu drank afternoon tea, and the taste in his mouth was dull. He couldn't help but miss the modern milk tea. Looking at Chunyan cleaning the table, he asked,
"Chunyan, do we have milk in our house?"
Chunyan replied,
"Miss Su, you asked just the right thing. I just came from the kitchen and saw some milk. I heard that a cow on our farm gave birth recently, so they sent some over. The kitchen is just thinking about what to make with it!"
Su Yu was a little discouraged when he heard this. That's right! This was in ancient times. Where would there be so much milk? Some people couldn't even get enough to eat, let alone a cow, especially a dairy cow!
Looking at Su Yu's frustrated face, Chunyan didn't know what she said wrongly, and hurriedly said carefully,
"Miss Su? But what did I say wrong?"
Su Yu looked at the little girl's worried and frightened expression and shook his head.
"No, you've packed up and asked someone to heat up a pot of milk and send it to Xiangxiangxuan. I'll be waiting there."
Chunyan quickly agreed, and Su Yu went to Xixiangxuan after saying this.
Before entering the yard, Su Yu could faintly hear the sound of the guzheng coming from the yard.
When she stepped into the yard, the music of the piano had stopped. At a glance, she saw Jin Xuerong taking off his artificial nails under the osmanthus tree. Su Yu immediately walked towards him quickly.
Jin Xuerong heard the familiar footsteps and looked up to see Su Yu coming to him. He couldn't help but smile.
But when he thought about how Su Yu said she would come to see him in the afternoon, but she didn't come until the evening, he forced the corners of his mouth to straighten again.
Su Yu brought a stool and sat next to Jin Xuerong. She took his hand and helped him undo his artificial nails. Looking at his proud little face, Su Yu coaxed him softly.
"Xuerong, I had something to do this afternoon and didn't make it over to watch you practice. Did you wait too long?"
In fact, Jin Xuerong couldn't help being happy when he saw Su Yu coming to see him. Now seeing her so considerately taking off his armor, the unhappiness in his heart had long since dissipated, but he still pretended to be unhappy and said,
"Su Yu, you really don't keep your word! You only come here now!"
Su Yu saw through Jin Xuerong's inner thoughts at a glance, kneaded his fingers for him, and said lovingly,
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. I didn't expect to be busy with Qiao Wu for the entire afternoon."
Su Yu scratched his delicate nose while speaking.
“So there’s compensation!”
Jin Xuerong's eyes lit up.
"What compensation? Tell me."
He finally understood that Su Yu always had some strange things, but they were surprisingly useful. He didn't know what it was this time.
"Miss Su! The hot milk you requested is here!"
Before Qiao Wu entered the yard, a noisy sound came over.
Jin Xuerong looked over curiously. Could it be that the compensation Su Yu mentioned was related to this milk?
Qiao Wu brought a pot of milk and placed it on the low table under the osmanthus tree. Then he greeted Jin Xuerong and said,
"Hello, Master! The lamb skewers that Miss Su asked me to prepare are almost ready! When grilling them, I sprinkled them with the seasonings Miss Su specified. They smell so good that my mouth is watering! You'll be able to taste them in a moment!"
Jin Xuerong looked up at Qiao Wu, whose body was still filled with the smell of spices. Thinking of the scene she described, she had no doubt that the mutton skewers were delicious. What was that steaming milk on the table?
Jin Xuerong turned to look at Su Yu puzzledly.
"So the lamb kebabs are the compensation? Then what's with the milk?"
Su Yu replied enthusiastically,
"I'll make you some milk tea!"
Then he pulled Jin Xuerong to sit beside the low table, and sure enough, he saw a pot of osmanthus tea he had brewed on the table.
Originally, Su Yu wanted to just mix milk and tea in a 1:1 ratio, but when he saw the small red clay stove, he had a better idea.
Su Yu asked Huaizhi for a plate of sugar and a clean teapot.
Qiao Wu was waiting to see Su Yu's operation. She knew that the milk Miss Su wanted must be extraordinary. After all, she had just spent the entire afternoon writing snack recipes for Miss Su!
Jin Xuerong was closest to Su Yu and could see every step she took.
I saw her slender white fingers pouring a dish of white sugar into the dry-burning teapot, stirring it with a spoon, and then putting the osmanthus tea into the pot, continuing to stir, and the two were dry-burning together in the pot.
Seeing this, Jin Xuerong was a little worried that the tea leaves would become burnt, but before he could say anything, Su Yu poured some of the hot water that had been boiled on the stove into the kettle. With a hissing sound, smoke suddenly came out of the kettle, and the aroma of caramel mixed with osmanthus wafted towards him.
Jin Xuerong stood up immediately after smelling the fragrance. She wanted to look into the pot, but Su Yu pulled her to sit down.
"It's not ready yet, wait a moment."
Jin Xuerong was pulled to sit by Su Yu, while Qiao Wu and Huaizhi beside her secretly stretched their necks and looked into the pot curiously. Unfortunately, the angle was not enough and they could only see the inner wall of the pot.
When the water on the stove boiled, Su Yu poured the hot milk into the kettle. Instantly, the aroma of milk mixed with the fragrance of caramel and osmanthus spread everywhere.
Everyone present closed their eyes and took a deep breath of the fragrance.
Without waiting for the milk tea to boil, Su Yu took the kettle off the stove, poured two cups of milk tea, and handed one to Jin Xuerong with a smile.
Jin Xuerong took the cup filled with the aroma of milk, looked at the light yellow milk tea inside, put it to her lips and took a small sip.
Su Yu, Qiao Wu and Huaizhi all looked at his expression expectantly.
As soon as you take a sip, the rich aroma of milk mixed with the fragrance of osmanthus, and the sweetness that is different from the usual white sugar, with a hint of the unique sweetness of caramel, fills your entire mouth at once.
Jin Xuerong's eyes lit up instantly.
"What a unique taste! I didn't expect milk and tea could combine so well! And that burnt aroma of the sugar just now, so delicious!"
Seeing that Jin Xuerong liked it, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the milk tea, and took a sip.
"Mmm~ It's that authentic milk tea flavor! Delicious!"
Seeing that Su Yu and Jin Xuerong both looked intoxicated, Qiao Wu couldn't wait to go back and try it out. She had already memorized Miss Su's steps!
Just then, a servant came to report that dinner was ready and was about to be served, so Qiao Wu took the opportunity to leave.
Su Yu and Jin Xuerong moved to the east wing to eat, while Huaizhi cleaned up the mess.
On the dinner table, a plate of lamb skewers was closest to the two of them, and the smell was the most overbearing!
Su Yu grabbed a skewer of lamb and took a bite. The chef of Jin Mansion had a great control of the heat. The lamb was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a strong cumin flavor!
Su Yu was so satisfied with the meal, finally he got to taste modern delicacies!
Su Yu was eating the skewers with satisfaction. When he turned around, he saw Jin Xuerong had already used chopsticks to pick the mutton off the skewers piece by piece and put them on the plate, eating them in small bites.
Su Yu suddenly felt that it was a waste of natural resources.
"Xuerong, is this mutton kebab delicious?"
Jin Xuerong nodded,
"Delicious! This is the first time I've eaten it grilled this way, and there's even some Chinese herbs on top. I didn't expect the combination to taste so good!"
"You're talking about cumin, which can also be used as a seasoning. Actually, it tastes better if you eat a whole bunch like I do!"
Su Yu took a bite of the lamb skewer in his hand and showed it to Jin Xuerong.
Jin Xuerong liked Su Yu's bold and generous look, but...
"That's too rough for me, but you do it really well!"
Su Yu paused. No, this is rude?
"Rude? No way? It's really delicious when eaten this way. There will be more seasoning. Try it."
As he spoke, Su Yu took out a new bunch and handed it to Jin Xuerong's mouth.
Seeing Su Yu like this, Jin Xuerong took a bite of the meat out of courtesy. Well, it tasted better than the one in the bowl.
After the two of them had finished their meal, Huaizhi helped Jin Xuerong to bed, and then he couldn't wait to go find his fifth sister!
