Chapter 225 Pumpkin Tower [Update 1]
Tu Rongrong was teaching her students. At noon, she left the second world and took her sister out for lunch. She didn't cook any difficult dishes. Since Tu Che and A11 were not at home, she didn't make anything complicated.
Tu Rongrong just cooked two bowls of rice noodles to get by. The soup base was made with broth, and paired with braised meat, these two bowls of rice noodles were particularly delicious. Tu Yuanyuan almost ate too much.
After Tu Rongrong took her sister to have a full meal, she thought about building an amusement park for her sister. There was still an area around her house where no plants could be planted, so why not use it to build a simple playground for her sister?
It just so happened that the construction robot that Tu Che had sent to build a tree house for her last time had not returned yet, so Tu Rongrong called the construction robot over and prepared to have it build a playground.
Slides, see-saws, swimming pools, swings, carousels, etc. all need to be built. When you have time in the future, you can build a super large playground. Now remember to build a small one.
After Tu Rongrong set up the robot's program, she let him go about his business. Of course, she also placed orders for the materials Tu Rongrong needed and asked the household robot to help receive the express delivery. Then she took Tu Yuanyuan back home to take a nap.
Tu Rongrong and Tu Yuanyuan went to sleep. When they woke up in the afternoon, Tu Rongrong saw that Tu Yuanyuan had not woken up yet, so he changed into sportswear and went to practice martial arts.
Her training ground has not been built yet. She has asked all the construction robots to build a playground for Tu Yuanyuan. Tu Rongrong no longer cares about the training ground. She can train anywhere.
Tu Rongrong's current body is really not as powerful as her original body. Of course, her original body is a monster's body, so of course it is very strong.
However, this body has also been genetically modified, so the quality is still good. It’s just that it has been spoiled since childhood and lacks many fighting instincts, so Tu Rongrong needs to be trained.
Tu Rongrong came to the forest and started running. Of course, when she was training her skills, she also needed to train how fast she could climb up the tree, how long it would take to jump to another tree, whether she could jump over, and so on.
When Tu Rongrong was exercising, she asked the housework robot to tell Tu Yuanyuan when she woke up, so Tu Rongrong didn't have much time to train in the forest.
The forests of Planet Aquamarine were relatively peaceful, at least because there were no exotic beasts, so the danger level wasn't as high as on other planets. However, Planet Aquamarine, similar to Earth, was still much more dangerous than Earth, after all, the animals there were quite large.
For example, a pheasant that was less than a few months old weighed nearly ten kilograms, and the more than 20-meter-long snake she saw in the grassland flower sea last time was not a python, but a poisonous snake.
Therefore, the forests of the Aquamarine Planet are still quite dangerous, but there are no large animals or large venomous snakes or insects within a few hundred miles of the place where Tu Rongrong and the others settled.
After Tu Rongrong had exercised in the forest for two hours, the household robot called Tu Rongrong to tell her that Tu Yuanyuan had woken up and was looking for her sister.
Children over two years old cannot live without adults. Since Tu Che and the others are not at home, Tu Yuanyuan can only ask her sister for help.
Tu Rongrong did not stay in the forest any longer and returned home dragging the sika deer she had killed.
"Sister..." After waking up, she kept crying because she couldn't see her sister. The housework robot even made milk for her to drink, but she still kept crying. Tu Yuanyuan finally stopped crying after seeing her sister come back. She was not afraid of the sika deer her sister dragged back. She rushed to Tu Rongrong and hugged her legs.
"Sister." Tu Yuanyuan hugged Tu Rongrong's legs. It was the first time today that she woke up and found that her sister and Uncle Che were not around, so she was very scared and insecure at the moment.
Tu Rongrong threw the sika deer, which weighed about 400 to 500 kilograms, to the housework robot, then bent down to pick up the cub. She received a hug from the cub and a disgusted look, "Sister, you stink."
I just trained in the forest for two hours and sweated a lot. It was hot in the summer and I was sweating so much. Tu Rongrong: "..."
Tu Rongrong looked at the chubby girl in her arms helplessly and said, "Sis, you smell so bad, so I won't hold you anymore?"
"I want my sister to hold me." After hearing this, Tu Yuanyuan quickly hugged her sister's neck. Even though her sister smelled smelly, she still wanted her sister to hold her.
Tu Rongrong shook her head and carried her back to the yard. She asked the housework robot to take the sika deer to the ice storage. Tu Rongrong went to the faucet in the yard to get water to wash her face, and then carried Tu Yuanyuan to the pavilion.
After the housework robot sent the sika deer to the ice storage, it came back and brought Tu Rongrong a bottle of juice. Tu Rongrong drank the juice while thinking about how to get the tea leaves out.
She actually prefers tea. Although juice is delicious, it's too sweet and doesn't seem to quench thirst that much. As for milk? Milk is not meant to quench thirst.
Tu Rongrong was resting while drinking juice. She pinched her sister's face and said, "Do you want me to make you some cookies?"
"Biscuits?" Tu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up and she looked at her sister curiously, "What are cookies? Are they delicious?"
Tu Rongrong nodded and said, "It's delicious."
"Then let's eat cookies." Tu Yuanyuan said happily.
"Let's go, we'll make cookies for you." Tu Rongrong had rested enough. After wiping the sweat off her body with a towel, she went straight to the vegetable garden to pick a pumpkin without taking a shower or changing clothes.
Tu Rongrong was planning to make pumpkin tarts for her sister, so she needed pumpkin.
The pumpkins grown by Tu Rongrong are quite large. The one she picked weighs over 20 kilograms. Tu Rongrong didn't cut half of the pumpkin into pieces. She peeled the whole pumpkin, scooped out the pulp and seeds, and then sliced the pumpkin flesh and steamed it in a steamer.
Of course, Tu Rongrong did not stay in the kitchen while the pumpkin was being steamed. She asked the housework robot to stare at the pumpkin until it was soft and then tell her. She then went straight to the yard to do horse stance.
The territory of this body is unstable, so you still need to practice horse stance diligently.
When Tu Rongrong was doing horse stance, Tu Yuanyuan sat on the swing and watched her sister doing it. Of course, her sister was not so calm when doing horse stance. She played music while doing it.
Of course, at this time Tu Rongrong also took the time to talk to Tu Yuanyuan. Tu Yuanyuan held her milk bottle and drank milk while looking at her sister squatting there motionless, and asked questions curiously.
Tu Rongrong was doing the horse stance very seriously, and then she explained the problem to her younger sister. It was not until the housework robot told her that the pumpkin was steamed that Tu Rongrong stopped doing the horse stance.
Tu Rongrong wiped the sweat off his face and went to the kitchen, then asked the household robot to bring out the pumpkin and grind it into pumpkin puree. This needed to be done while it was hot, so Tu Rongrong left it to the household robot, which had no sense of pain, to do.
Mix the butter and syrup together and stir until evenly combined. Then add the egg yolks and continue stirring. Then add the low-gluten flour, milk powder, jelly powder and lemon zest and stir until a dough is formed.
Then put the dough on the table, fold it into a smooth dough with your hands, and then roll it into a very thin dough with a rolling pin. Finally, use a large-mouthed cup to cut the dough, which is more convenient. The round tart crusts are ready.
Then you can put the pumpkin puree, milk, cream, sugar, eggs, cinnamon powder, cardamom powder, rum and lemon peel in a bowl, stir into a paste, and then sieve it.
Fold tin foil into the shape of a small bowl, then put the tart crust in it to pad the bottom, then pour the filling into the tart crust, filling them all in one by one, until each one is 90% full.
Finally, put it in the oven and bake it at 150℃ for thirty minutes.
After Tu Rongrong set the baking time, she let the housework robot continue to watch. She packed up the remaining pumpkin puree and put it in the refrigerator until the next time she planned to make a dessert that required pumpkin.
Like pumpkin pie or something?
But she didn't want to make pumpkin pie right now, so after making the pumpkin tower, Tu Rongrong took Tu Yuanyuan out of the kitchen and asked the housework robot to watch it. When the time came, she would let the housework robot take out the pumpkin tower.
Tu Rongrong continued to exercise. This time she did not do horse stance, but practiced sit-ups and push-ups, which did not require much space to move around.
After Tu Rongrong practiced for half an hour, the pumpkin tower was finally completed.
"It smells so good, so good, so good..." Tu Yuanyuan, who had been watching her sister exercising, was attracted by the sweet smell of the pumpkin tart and wanted to run to the kitchen.
Fortunately, the things in the kitchen are placed relatively high, and the height of the oven is not high enough for Tu Yuanyuan, a little girl who is only two years old, to reach, so there is no need to worry about her getting burned.
Tu Rongrong walked over lazily while drinking warm water with salt and wiping the sweat off her face. She watched the housework robot turn off the power of the oven and take out the pumpkin tart, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Try it and see how it tastes." Tu Rongrong took one and gave it to her sister. Of course, the pumpkin tart that had just been baked was still very hot. Tu Rongrong asked the housework robot to put the tart in a small plate, and then placed it in front of Tu Yuanyuan, without letting her take it with her hands.
"Let it cool down before eating, otherwise you will get burned." Tu Rongrong said seriously, otherwise it would be terrible if her sister got burned.
"Yeah," Tu Yuanyuan nodded obediently, puffing up her cheeks and blowing on the pumpkin tower in front of her. After a while, she stretched out her chubby hand to touch it. After finding that it was not so hot anymore, she happily took it over.
"You can't eat the outside. You have to eat the inside, okay?" Tu Rongrong pointed to the tinfoil bowl containing the pumpkin tart, and told her sister not to eat all the tinfoil at once.
"Yeah." Tu Yuanyuan nodded again, carefully pulled down the tin foil a little, then took a bite and tasted the soft pumpkin.
"Well, great!" Tu Yuanyuan said happily with her eyes narrowed.
Tu Rongrong also took a pumpkin tart to taste it. The crust was a bit crispy, but the filling was very soft and tender. The sweet taste made Tu Rongrong frown slightly. She didn't like very sweet desserts.
The amount of sugar she added when she made it just now was just right. After all, if there is less sugar in the dessert, the taste may not be that good. Tu Rongrong doesn't like very sweet desserts, but she also doesn't want to make desserts that are very bland.
The pumpkin in this pumpkin tart is sweet in itself. Although she added a small amount of sugar, it is still a bit sweet. Fortunately, it is not too sweet. I am still quite satisfied with it.
She quite likes the outer crust. She doesn’t like fried pumpkin or other dishes made with pumpkin, but pumpkin is delicious when used as a snack.
Tu Rongrong finished a pumpkin tart in two bites and took another one. After finishing it, she took a sip of the water in her hand and stopped eating. Two were enough, and she would feel sick if she ate too much.
The little girl Tu Yuanyuan was enjoying the meal very much. She ate four pumpkin tarts in one go. Tu Rongrong gave her the last one and didn't let her eat any more. The rest were all put away by Tu Rongrong.
It's almost dinner time, and this girl is still eating so many snacks. Is she not planning to have dinner? So Tu Rongrong doesn't let her eat too much, it's better to be moderate.
