Chapter 174 The Birth of Flower Cake



That night, a pig-killing scream suddenly came from Wang Xiuying's house: "Ouch! My teeth—"

The shout scared the old hen from Li Guifang's house next door and made it cluck. It also scared the two brothers Li Anyuan and Li Anyang who were brushing their teeth so much that they swallowed their mouthwash.

"Did you hear that?" Li Guifang took the opportunity to teach her son a lesson, "Grandpa Wang just didn't brush his teeth properly, and now you're getting your comeuppance!

If you continue to be lazy and not brush your teeth, you will also be in pain like this in the future!"

"Ouch! My teeth!"

In the front room, Wang Qinglai covered his cheeks and jumped up and down, "Wang Xiuying, what did you give me to eat? A grenade?"

Wang Xiuying suppressed her laughter, feeling secretly pleased. Served her right! Who told Wang Qinglai to be so picky and pretentious now? She had wanted to teach her a lesson for a long time!

Just now, Wang Qinglai lay down on the kang like a big boss again: "Old woman, I'm hungry, go make me a bowl of noodles!" Wang Xiuying got angry when she heard it, so she took out the cake she brought back from Guifangzhai and handed it to him.

When Wang Qinglai heard the word "Guifangzhai", his eyes lit up.

You know, he is usually very stingy and would not be willing to buy such delicious snacks.

If Wang Xiuying brought back some leftovers, he would hide them and eat them himself, and would be happy for several days.

This time, when he saw his wife taking the initiative to bring him food, he was as happy as if he had picked up money.

Although it doesn’t look very good, it’s made of fine noodles. I bit into it without hesitation.

With this crisp sound, Wang Qinglai felt like his teeth were about to fall out.

And so, we have the scene just now!

Wang Xiuying suppressed her laughter and said, "Look at what you're saying. You said you were hungry, so I saved this for you!"

"Pah!" Old man Wang spat out a mouthful of black residue, looking at the "discus" in his hand with tears in his eyes.

"This pancake is harder than the sole of a shoe! My front teeth are loose!"

Wang Xiuying glared at him, "You old fool, you're exaggerating! This is a new product that Guifang spent a lot of time researching, and you're still being picky! I won't bring it to you next time!"

"That's not what I meant!" Old Man Wang waved his hands in anger. "You'd better not sell this new product. It's not even enough to cover the medical expenses!"

"You know shit! This is made of the best white flour!"

Wang Qinglai started to act pretentiously again, "How do I eat this?"

"You're being hypocritical! Wouldn't it soften if you soaked it in boiling water? How can you waste something made of white flour?"

Wang Xiuying picked up the thermos and poured water into the bowl without saying a word.

After being brainwashed repeatedly by Wang Xiuying, Wang Qinglai had the most indescribable cake he had ever eaten in his life!

It tastes bitter, astringent and burnt, and is worse than drinking a bowl of pot washing water!

So much so that the next day, at dawn, Wang Qinglai squatted at the door waiting for Li Guifang.

After waiting for a long time, he didn't see anything and instead stopped Xie Dazui who was passing by.

"You big mouth!" Wang Qinglai grabbed her and said, "You have to talk to Guifang and ask her to control your employee Wang Xiuying!

This woman takes everything home. I almost lost my old teeth to her!

Xie Da Jiao looked bewildered: "What? What is that? Uncle Wang, what are you talking about?"

Could it be that this old man is crazy so early in the morning?

She took a look and saw that Wang Qinglai was missing half of his front tooth. She laughed out loud, "Old Wang, you're talking nonsense!!!"

——

As soon as Xie Da Jiao stepped into Guifangzhai, she saw Li Guifang busy in the kitchen.

"Hey, Guifang'er, isn't it your turn to rest today?"

Zhang Fengzhi poked her head out from the storage room, holding a bag of flour in her hand: "That's right!

When I got here this morning, I saw her tinkering in the kitchen. I thought I had misremembered the schedule again!

Li Guifang didn't even raise her head, her hands moving quickly: "Why are you sleeping? I was dreaming last night that I was rolling flower cakes!"

As she spoke, she deftly placed the dough on the baking tray.

There are seven or eight different kinds of experimental products on the chopping board, some are burnt, some are golden, and some are slightly burnt. It looks like an exhibition of the "Evolution of Flower Cakes".

Xie Dazui took a closer look. Wow! "How early did you come..."

Before he could finish his words, his elbow accidentally hit a pancake.

There was a crisp "clang" sound - the pancake hit the ground but didn't break at all, just like a discus.

It rolled "gurgling" on the ground, rolled over the threshold and went straight to the outer hall!

She finally understood why Old Man Wang came to complain so early in the morning!

If this discus is thrown out, it can knock out several dogs!

Xie Da Jiao was standing by, trying to hold back his laughter until he started coughing: "Ahem...Fang'er, this pancake of yours...is quite suitable for walking on the road at night..."

Li Guifang was immersed in her own "flower cakes" and didn't take the two people's teasing seriously at all.

It has become obsessed with making this cake, tinkering like crazy in the kitchen.

At this moment, she was very determined to fight with this flower cake to the end.

Tough skin? Add more water!

But I accidentally poured half a bucket of water into the basin.

The kneaded dough turned directly into porridge!

The flower filling is turning black? Then bake it slowly over low heat! She turned the heat down lower and lower.

Zhang Fengzhi and Xie Dajiao looked at the trembling little flame, not knowing who it was that spoke.

"Fang, can this fire cook it?"

"What do you know!" Li Guifang said without raising her head, her hands moving non-stop, "Flowers are delicate, they need to be roasted slowly over low heat!"

As she spoke, she wrote furiously in a small notebook.

After a while, the small notebook in my hand was filled with notes.

A few strands of hair were loose and dangling on the tip of his nose, making him look like an old scholar doing scientific research.

But you know what, after baking it several times, the situation has improved!

These two times, the pancakes turned out better and better.

"Hahahaha!"

Just as Xie Da Jiao was about to open her mouth to praise her, Li Guifang suddenly stamped her foot and said, "Wait! I know how I can do better!"

Before he could finish his words, he rushed to the food cabinet like a whirlwind, leaving the two of them staring at each other.

Fortunately, everyone had work to do, so after taking a few glances, they went back to their own work.

Suddenly there was a "ding" sound.

The three of them gathered together and waited for the prize to be announced.

Li Guifang opened the oven door with trembling hands, and a sweet fragrance hit her face - wow!

The golden crust is so crispy that it's about to fall apart, and the pink and white petals inside are faintly visible, just like spring is wrapped in it! Just looking at it makes people drool!

"It's done! It's really done this time!" Li Guifang slapped her thigh and smiled so hard that the wrinkles on her face smoothed out a little, making her look like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Xie Da Jiao couldn't wait to grab a piece, and even though it burned her left hand and her right hand, she still couldn't help but take a big bite.

The puff pastry makes a crisp sound, and the sweet flower filling melts in your mouth.

It was so beautiful that her eyes narrowed into slits: "Sister Guifang, this is amazing! This craft is definitely that!"

Zhang Fengzhi didn't care that it was hot and took two big mouthfuls, giving a thumbs up while eating.

The three of them took turns eating, and she turned to look at Li Guifang. She was not only happy but also admired!
