Chapter 744: A unique preference
As she spoke, Mrs. Xiao handed over the waistcoats. The top one was very small, and it was obviously for Nuobao.
The gray squirrel skin was orange, and the fur was shiny, dense and warm.
With the green cat's eye stone as an embellishment, it was simply the most luxurious, but not vulgar.
When Mrs. Feng touched it, her eyes lit up. Thinking of this kind of furry clothes, little Nuobao liked it the most.
Don't think that Mrs. Xiao said one for each person.
But the one prepared for Nuobao was specially inlaid with a circle of pearls and tassels made of Hetian jade beads on the cuffs. The tassels alone must have cost more than ten taels. It was a unique preference.
Mrs. Feng couldn't help laughing and said, "This waistcoat is really exquisite. If Nuobao saw it, I don't know how much he would like it. He would definitely hold the bronze mirror and admire it for a long time."
Mrs. Xiao stretched her neck to look inside and couldn't help asking, "Why, is Nuobao not at home now? Where did he go?"
Mrs. Feng felt distressed when she thought of her daughter, and led Mrs. Xiao to the main hall, "This is a long story. Let's go. This is a windy place. Let's go in and talk."
On the other side of the corridor, Mrs. Xiao greeted Li Qiqiao and took her hand and went into the kitchen mysteriously.
She was holding a paper bag in her hand, and a layer of grease oozed out of the outside, staining her fingers shiny.
Li Qiqiao couldn't help but be curious, "What's in it? Look how precious it is to you. You even dragged me to the kitchen to see it."
Mrs. Xiao blushed and opened the paper package expectantly, "Qiqiao, I came up with a snack this morning. Please try it and see how it tastes. If it tastes good, you can sell it in your shop."
Mrs. Xiao didn't have any hobbies at home. She just liked to think about pastries and embroidery.
After meeting Li Qiqiao, they seemed to have found a soulmate. Whenever they met, they would talk about these things.
Li Qiqiao heard this and hurriedly took it over to take a look.
The paper package was greasy and contained a few pieces of food that seemed to be wrapped in egg liquid and fried.
She took a bite and it tasted soft and hard at first, but after chewing it carefully, she found it very rich, like the taste of several kinds of snacks.
Li Qiqiao looked up in surprise, "What is this made of? How did I taste chestnuts? It seems to be crispy on the outside, I don't know what it is. By the way, how did you come up with this food?"
Mrs. Xiao smiled with a red face, "This is when I was frying meatballs this morning, I accidentally dropped two pieces of peach cakes into the pot. I thought I was wasting food, but it tasted good, so I continued to think about it."
She steamed the chestnuts and mashed them into a paste, added honey to season, and then sandwiched them between two pieces of peach cakes. Finally, she coated the whole thing with egg liquid and fried it in the pot.
It was the ready-made crispy chestnut cake.
Li Qiqiao lowered her head and listened, and the more she listened, the more excited she became. "Don't tell me, using honey to season is better than using white sugar. It tastes sweet and delicious. The most important thing is that the original taste of the peach cake wrapped in egg liquid is neutralized after frying, leaving only a crispy texture, which does not affect the taste of chestnuts at all."
After saying that, she took a big bite again and again, and then hurried to prepare peach cakes and chestnuts, and she also wanted to make them by herself.
Stuff the steamed chestnut paste into the peach cake, roll it in the egg yolk liquid, and then put it in the oil pan again.
After a series of crackling, the fragrance is so fragrant that it can penetrate the front door!
Seeing the chestnut crisps rolling in the oil pan, finally revealing their true colors, and then being picked out one by one and placed on the curtain, they were round and shiny, like a well-behaved little baby.
The two women in the kitchen were also overjoyed. They clapped their hands and were so happy that they almost jumped up.
"Don't say it, your craftsmanship is still better than mine, and the shapes you made are better than mine!"
"No, it's because you have a strong imagination. I'm worried about new ideas for my water shop business, and you are simply my soulmate."
At this time, Chun Ge'er and Dong Ge'er came over after smelling the smell, interrupting the two adults' mutual flattery, and lying at the door with eager eyes.
Chun Ge'er has grown a lot taller, his little face is so white and tender that you can squeeze water out of it, and his eyes are also black.
Dong Ge'er was dark and strong. Seeing that his brother was a little shy, he showed his little teeth and took the initiative to come in and hug Li Qiqiao's thighs.
"Auntie, it smells so good. I want to eat it~"
Looking at the two little darlings, Li Qiqiao's heart was almost softened. She quickly served a bowl and coaxed the two boys to drool.
At this time, Xiao Nuobao had slept for three hours on the bed in the inner room.
She felt that it was almost enough.
She heard some noise outside, yawned, and jumped off the bed.
Outside the door, Chun Ge'er and Dong Ge'er were guarding a small bowl, eating happily one piece at a time.
However, there were still a few pieces left in the middle of the bowl, piled high, which they left for their aunt.
Seeing that his aunt had gotten up, Chun Ge'er quickly stood up, raising his hands high.
Little Nuobao took a bite and showed a look of surprise, almost choking himself.
"Is this the snack made by my second sister-in-law? It's delicious, and there's still soft stuff inside."
At this time, Feng's voice also came from the main hall, "Are you awake? Don't just focus on eating, your grandmother Xiao is here, and she also brought you a little dress, come and take a look."
As expected, no one knows a daughter better than her mother.
When the little fat girl walked over and saw the gray squirrel vest, she was so excited that she stamped her feet and said she would try it on no matter what. She went back to the house to take out a bronze mirror and happily ran to the window to look.
In late autumn, the ground dragon in Jiang's house had been lit.
The room was hot, and the little fat girl wrapped herself in a leather vest, and was almost sweating, but she was reluctant to take it off.
"Okay, stop being so conceited, and put down the copper mirror quickly, don't wear it out." Feng winked at Mrs. Xiao and deliberately joked.
Mrs. Xiao was happy to see that she liked it, and said, "There are still a few fox skins in the mansion, and you can give them all to Nuobao and cook them for her in different ways."
Little Nuobao was not polite, and ran over to hug Mrs. Xiao, and kissed her enthusiastically.
"Hehe, thank you Grandma Xiao, Nuobao loves Grandma Xiao the most. When the time comes, we can make two identical ones for each other. It's called the grandparents costume!"
Grandma Xiao was coaxed into laughing with her head tilted back. When she opened her mouth, two big gold teeth were revealed, shining so brightly that they dazzled the eyes.
However, although the little fat girl is conceited, she still hasn't forgotten the serious things.
After lunch, Xiao Nuobao put on this luxurious little vest, got on the carriage like a conspicuous bag, and asked Feng to accompany her to the manor.
In Xiaoliu Manor, Da Liu and his wife haven't left yet.
And it just so happens that Xiao Nuobao still needs to ask them about finding the two cotton hiding places in Laicheng.
Now, if the cotton can be found one day earlier, the confidence of Nanji Kingdom will be more!
