Leng Hong walked in and laughed loudly, "My beloved concubine, are you trying to capture my stomach?"
Su Wanti's watery eyes were reflected in a dancing warm red by the firelight, and the soft hair on her fair and tender face was also coated with a layer of orange-red gold by the firelight.
She looked at Leng Hong with a charming and ambiguous smile and her red lips were alluring.
"Yes, we have to grab it with both hands, and both hands must be strong!"
Leng Hong chuckled, with unspeakable doting in his eyes. He looked at her slightly red little face and couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
Her smooth little face was warmed by the fire on the stove, and felt slightly warm to the touch, and her palms were toasty.
There was still some powdered sugar on Wen Nuan's little face, which got onto Leng Hong's palm due to his actions.
Su Wanti's eyes flickered, and her soft little hand pulled his palm to her lips, and she whispered, "Your Majesty's hands are dirty."
Then, she lowered her head slightly, parted her red lips, and licked Leng Hong's palm quickly with her slippery tongue, "Your Majesty is so sweet."
Leng Hong only felt a warmth in his palm, and then this little warmth in his palm went straight to his heart like lightning.
He looked at the woman who blinked her eyes slightly, with a mischievous look on her face, her Adam's apple rolling slightly, and her eyes filled with a hint of helplessness.
"You are so bold."
Leng Hong's voice was just like his eyes, filled with a hint of helplessness.
And pampering.
Su Wanti smiled, her eyes slightly curved, with tiny sparks of fire flickering in them, "Then, Your Majesty, do you like my boldness?"
"like."
Leng Hong lowered his eyes to look at her, put his warm hands around her waist, and answered without hesitation.
Su Wanti placed her hands on his chest, feeling the rise and fall of his chest.
Her eyes sparkled as she looked into his, her voice soft, "Then Your Majesty must always love me."
"Yeah," Leng Hong replied softly, his eyes gleaming with warmth.
The gentleness around him enveloped Su Wanti. She felt as if she were immersed in warm water, her whole body and heart warm.
The two looked at each other in silence for a moment. At this moment, time seemed to stop.
Until the humming of the kettle on the stove broke this rare moment of tranquility.
Su Wanti came to her senses and almost forgot that she was still making pastries!
She pursed her nose slightly, and tiny lines appeared on the bridge of her nose, adding a touch of purity and loveliness to her delicate and charming face.
"Your Majesty always bothers me, and I still have to make snacks. Your Majesty, would you like to stay and watch me make snacks?"
She tilted her head to look at him and asked coquettishly.
Leng Hong nodded happily, "My beloved concubine, you are stunningly beautiful, thoughtful, and nimble. The snacks you make will surely be delicious and I am looking forward to them."
Got his praise,
Su Wanti's little face became even redder, with a rosy glow from the corners of her eyes to her cheeks.
The steamer on the stove was emitting steam. Su Wanti put away her thoughts that had been disturbed by Leng Hong and continued to concentrate on making snacks.
She put on thick cotton gloves for insulation and carefully took down the steamer.
Leng Hong saw this and was afraid that she would get burned, so he asked her to stop and let the palace maids do it.
However, Su Wanti told him that she wanted to do it herself and take every step by herself without anyone else interfering.
Seeing her firm attitude, Leng Hong stopped interfering and let her do as she wished.
Su Wanti opened the steamer, and inside was steamed soft and glutinous yam.
She put the yam in a bowl and mashed it while it was hot, then added some glutinous rice flour and pink dragon fruit, stirred it evenly, and kneaded it into a smooth pink dough.
The kitchen chopping board is almost full.
On the left is a failed product that Su Wanti made when she first started making dim sum.
Some are too dark in color, some are too soft and collapsed, with no shape at all, and some have been bitten and left there, so they must taste bad...
However, from left to right, the shape of the dessert gradually becomes clearer.
From the few desserts on the far right, Leng Hong could tell that Su Wanti was making a plum blossom-shaped pastry.
On the far right side of the chopping board, there are a few small yellowish balls made of cheese, emitting a faint milky aroma.
Leng Hong sat on the side and watched. He saw that when Su Wanti was making snacks, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed. She was very methodical and serious.
And, as she said, she did everything by herself without any help from anyone.
I saw her neatly and skillfully divide the pink yam dough into two pieces, and then roll each into long strips.
Then cut the long strips into small pieces, place the small pieces on the palm of your hand and knead them into round doughs, then press them and the round doughs will become round pancakes.
Then, place the light yellow cheese in the middle of the dough, wrap it tightly, knead it into a ball, place it in the plum blossom mold and press it lightly.
A piece of plum cake takes shape.
Su Wanti used thin bamboo strips to press out patterns on the plum petals, and then used golden and soft pumpkin puree to make stamens, which she dotted in the middle of the plum blossoms.
A plum blossom appeared in her palm.
Su Wanti pinched some coconut flakes and sprinkled them on the plum blossom cake. The coconut flakes were as white as snow falling on plum blossoms.
"My beloved concubine is indeed clever and skillful." Leng Hong nodded.
This was Su Wanti's best performance after a busy day and countless failures. Her eyes were full of joy and her heart was satisfied.
She made a few more pieces, and then they each picked up a piece and tasted it.
The outer skin is made of yam, which is sweet and soft, and the light yellow filling is full of milky flavor and melts in your mouth.
Leng Hong looked at the plum cake in his hand, his brows twitching slightly.
He seemed to be thinking about something, and said in a deep voice:
"My Queen Mother loves plum blossoms the most, and she doesn't like overly sweet desserts. I think she will like this plum blossom cake."
"Then I will make more and send them to the Cining Palace so that the Empress Dowager can taste my cooking skills." Su Wanti said with a smile, her eyes shining.
