Chapter 93 He has a legitimate place in Peach Cake Mountain!
When the weather gets hot, the cicadas become annoying and make it difficult to sleep peacefully.
And something big has happened again!
Wei Fuqiu and Wei Fuling squatted in the corner and sighed.
The watermelon vines in the corner were well taken care of by them. They were wilted by the sun every day. When they got up in the morning or went home from school at Su Yuxuan, they didn't even have time to drink a sip of water themselves, but they would definitely let the watermelon vines have a sip first.
These little melons are also very considerate, they are round and green.
result.
Grandma took one and cut it with a "click".
It's white flesh, but tasteless...
Another one went down, and only a little powder could be seen.
"Why does this loofah vine grow so well?"
Wei Fuling reached out and poked the drooping loofah. "It'll be ready to eat in a few days. I wonder if Grandma will stir-fry edamame, stew loofah soup, or even have loofah scrambled eggs..."
Wei Fuqiu, holding a toothbrush in her mouth, continued, "Grandma said the old vendor's seedlings were black. We searched half the street but couldn't find him. Loofah seedlings are common, so he wouldn't dare sell fake ones."
It's getting hot, so Su Yuxuan will be closed for a month. They just opened yesterday, and they're already celebrating by opening the melons. What a surprise!
This melon is just a shell.
One, Two, Three is the happiest.
The watermelon with white flesh and no taste was given to one, two, and three. They ate it with great joy, not knowing whether it was sweet or not. They just thought it tasted crispy and juicy. They even pecked the rind clean.
"Stop sighing and come to the front to eat watermelon curd!"
Wei Jinyun's voice came from the lobby.
As long as their sister called them, all their unhappiness disappeared. The two of them packed up and ran over.
Although it was hot outside, entering the two shops was refreshing. The carved wooden windows were all fitted with perfectly woven bamboo curtains. When the sun poured in from outside, the curtains were lowered to prevent it from being too dark.
Lying in a recliner, sipping a cup of tea, eating a snack, and listening to funny stories and jokes, it feels so relaxing.
Wei Jinyun handed the bowl to the two sisters. With a light spoonful, they could see the watermelon flesh and soft cheese at the bottom of the bowl.
The watermelons in Changshu County are naturally sweet, and there are always vendors selling them on boats. There are countless varieties of watermelons, such as Siqian melon, Fu melon, Jinzi melon, Mei melon, etc.
Wei Jinyun simply bought each kind to try, and signed a two-month contract with the watermelon vendor who sold them at a reasonable price and tasted delicious.
How can we enjoy the hot summer without some cool and sweet watermelon?
The two sisters took the bowl, scooped a mouthful with a spoon and put it into their mouths.
The cheese is cool and chewy, and the watermelon flesh on top is rich in aroma. A bite of the sweet watermelon juice bursts out and can quickly dispel the summer heat.
Watermelon yogurt uses the same method as vegetarian hangover ice. The agarwood liquid can be condensed into various flavors and can be added with various small ingredients.
A bowl of refreshing and cold watermelon jelly is very refreshing.
In addition to watermelon yogurt, Wei Jinyun also made sweet cucumber and bayberry flavors, as well as freshly squeezed ice watermelon juice, beaten Li Mengzi, and mint mung bean soup to go with bread and snacks.
Drinks can be ordered individually or as part of a set menu.
Wei Jinyun and her sisters were sitting by the window having breakfast and eating watermelon yogurt when Chang Siyan came in waving her folding fan to go to work.
"Shopkeeper Wei, I went to the stall with Grandpa early this morning and saw that the workshop over at Fengqiao was already preparing to put up the beams. How come it's so fast?"
"Yes, we're rushing to finish it right now, so it should be finished by autumn. Let it air dry for a few days before cutting the ribbon, the timing is just right."
After saying this, Wei Jinyun changed the subject and said, "I asked you to test me in person and recruit some employees. How is that going?"
"Don't worry, I'm screening."
Chang Siyan took a bite of the watermelon curd handed to him by Wei Jinyun without hesitation. "The people introduced by Wang Ya are all hardworking, and many of the young ladies are very strong. Now that Yun Lai Xiang's reputation is getting better and better, everyone is happy to come here to work."
Gu Xiang was piling watermelons in the yard with the vendor when he heard the voice and reminded, "Xiao Chang, you have to watch this carefully. Don't attract people from other teahouses."
Wan Wu chuckled, remembering what happened a while ago, and jokingly said, "That's right, just like Wu Feng Pavilion's young master Wu Men, who tried to bribe our Yun Lai Xiang staff for the secret bread recipe. Didn't Xiao Juan get coaxed into telling him a few superficial things? But without the perfect control of the heat and the meticulous attention, it's useless to say anything. He still can't make the recipe the way we do."
"That's why he wanted to come here and investigate in person."
Chao Jiu continued, grinning as well, "I heard he knew that Shopkeeper Wei liked those with good looks, so he tried to use his beauty to lure him in. He relied on his good looks to deliver mountain produce and other things to the shop door all day long."
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Shopkeeper Wei was drinking his porridge when he suddenly choked and said, "When did I ever say I liked good looks?"
Who is spreading rumors!
Gu Xiang laughed loudly, "It's okay, it's okay. Master Lu has already taken Wu Men away."
He carried the person back to Wufeng Pavilion like a chicken.
She later heard that when Wu Men was taken away, he was still stubborn and yelled at Lord Lu—
"Sir Lu, even if Shopkeeper Wei and you are engaged, the marriage hasn't taken place yet? You like Shopkeeper Wei, and I like Shopkeeper Wei too. We should be on the same side!"
After these words were spoken, Lu Lan's face turned dark for three days.
Whoever is in the same camp with him has a status!
A few people were joking around when Amu approached with a broom. Seeing that Wei Jinyun's face was still a little red, he quickly whispered, "Boss Wei, don't take it to heart. It's just other people's gossip."
She thought for a while before speaking slowly, "By the way, Xiaojuan asked me to ask if she can still go back to Yunlaixiang to work?"
Gu Xiangxian frowned and scolded, "She's dreaming. When you first came into Yunlaixiang, you said that the secret recipe must not be leaked. Manager Wei treats us so well? The wages are higher than other shops, and the bonuses during festivals are generous. But she threw the rules to the wind for a few coins. How can we let her in again?"
Amu nodded repeatedly after hearing this and then said, "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Wei, we all remember the rules and will never do anything like Xiaojuan did."
She knew in her heart that Xiaojuan seemed to have an emergency at home, so she asked someone to steal her away, but rules are rules, and it is absolutely unacceptable to leak the two secret recipes of Yunlaixiang bread for the sake of the dim sum restaurant next door.
There are sweet things here, the sisters treat her well, and there are sweet things to see.
She will definitely not turn against us.
In the afternoon, the Meow Meow Bakery was particularly lively.
Li Ji came in holding Zhi Duo Xing's hand to have some snacks.
Zhi Duo Xing wore a short green bamboo jacket and tied his hair with a small jade-colored hair crown, which made him look much more handsome.
Wang Qiulan was discussing the style of new clothes with Shen Wan at the table. When she saw his appearance, she laughed out loud.
"Brother Cheng, I remember it's only been three months since we last met, how come you've become so thin?"
Zhi Duo Xing immediately straightened his back and replied proudly, "Shopkeeper Wang, can I be a child model in your shop like this? Look at me now, don't I look like a handsome young man? Am I as high-spirited as my father?"
"Master, how did you become so thin? Tell me about it."
Meng Ge'er was eating a delicious cream cake nearby. Sister Wei Rui was very kind to him, squeezing two layers of cream on it and even drawing a picture of their family's big rooster on it. He ate it with great relish.
But now I see the bamboo pole-like appearance of Zhi Duo Xing.
He is not beautiful again.
He pinched the flesh on his arm, and it seemed that this wise man had really turned into a handsome young man!
Zhi Duo Xing was pulled by Meng Ge'er's sleeve, but he didn't hide anything. He cleared his throat like a little adult and said, "If you want to lose weight, you can't be lazy. My father takes me to the riverside to run for half an hour every morning. The snacks and candied fruits I used to love to eat have been replaced by steamed yams from the mansion."
He continued, "Also, I used to always lie in my chair reading, but now I help the people in the mansion carry firewood and water the vegetables in the garden every day. I don't stay up late at night, and I have to go to bed as soon as the hour of Xu arrives."
Meng Ge'er wrote down all these things and made a secret decision.
The two of them huddled together to study the weight loss tips, while Wei Fuling and Wei Fuqiu sat aside to eat cake. He took a piece with a spoon and walked around in front of Zhi Duoxing's door, but he didn't order any.
He has great concentration.
Li Ji ordered a piece of bayberry cake for himself. It was quite pleasant to eat something sweet occasionally after finishing his official duties.
It would have been even more pleasant if I hadn't seen Lu Lan coming in and sleeping next to Manager Wei.
A young man in shorts, with sweat dripping down his forehead, walked in with his arms slumped. His face was tanned red, and he sat down at the table by the door and drank two bowls of tea in one gulp.
"Oh my goodness, I've been running all morning and my legs feel like they're not mine anymore!"
Dashan wiped his sweat off his forehead and shouted towards Yuqing at the counter, "Your Yunlaixiang orders are so hot! Half of the orders from my small street are for you!"
He was not originally from Pingjiang Prefecture, but he had no choice. Since the lady he liked lived here, he came here to make money and wanted to settle down here.
Although it was hard work for an idler, the money came quickly, so he took up the job. The summer heat scorched him so much that he didn't even have time to breathe.
Even if you can take a breath, the orders will be snatched away quickly, so it’s better not to take a breath.
Now, the heat is finally unbearable.
He drank another bowl of tea before calming down and saying, "No, I have to treat myself today. I'll have a portion of your Peach Crisp Mountain! I want to try it too. What does it taste like that so many people are rushing to order it!"
The order for Sushan is very troublesome. Although Yunlaixiang puts ice in the food boxes, they still need to work at lightning speed on this hot day to ensure that the food does not melt too much when it is delivered to the customers.
Amu came over with a porcelain plate, and the peach cakes on the plate were very eye-catching.
Layers of milky white pastry are piled up like hills of freshly fallen snow. Pink peach flesh is spread on top, and the peach jam drips down the pastry, forming a light pink pool on the edge of the porcelain plate.
The peaches on it were shipped from Wuxi County in Liangzhe Province. They are round and plump, about the size of a palm.
Its skin is delicate and soft, and the ripe peach is like white jade with layers of red. You can smell a rich and sweet fruity aroma just by smelling it.
Gently tear open the thin skin and you'll see the tender pink flesh, filled with sweet juice. Take a bite and the tender flesh bursts open, releasing the juice as sweet as spring water.
Wei Jinyun is so happy to eat such peaches that she can peel one for each of her three meals a day. After entering the market of Sushan, it has become a hot item in summer.
"Enjoy your meal."
She placed the plate gently in front of the mountain.
It was so delicious that even Dashan was reluctant to eat it.
Normally, he would fill his mouth with pig's trotters, but now he just used a spoon to pick up a little bit.
The yogurt melts as soon as it touches your tongue, filling your mouth with the aroma of milk and the sweetness of peach jam, and even the heat from running errands is mostly relieved.
Dashan slowly opened his eyes and decided to eat another bowl.
Just as Zhi Duo Xing was helping Meng Ge'er complete his weight loss tips, he caught a glimpse of Da Shan at the next table eating with relish, the honey sauce running along the edge of the plate was very tempting.
His eyes were glued to the mountain of pastry, and his concentration on the cake had long since dissipated.
Wei Fuqiu looked at him like this, licking her cake and saying, "Master Zhi Duo, do you want to eat the Su Shan? The butter on top is the same as the one on the cake... The ones on the cake were directly decorated with flowers and small animals by Sister Weirui, while the ones on the Su Shan were melted and poured over the smoothie."
More and more people like to eat ghee. Compared with these, honey-floating ghee is also very popular. Ghee is made from cow's milk.
In order to make allowance for the three donkeys in the backyard, my sister bought three more.
The six donkeys worked hard to milk the cows and grind rice flour... They stared at Huihui, who was carelessly eating grass, with "vicious" eyes all day long.
Zhi Duoxing's brows frowned and then relaxed. On one side was the elegant young man, and on the other side was the alluring sweet fragrance.
He hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and said firmly, "I'll eat it! I'll eat half of the bowl, and the other half is for Dad!"
Li Ji had already put the cake on the empty plate. He had become a lot rounder recently, and his jawline was softer. As soon as he finished his official business at the government office, he came to Yunlaixiang for tea.
As I ate it more and more, I became addicted to it.
He ordered a bowl of peach pastry for his son to share. Seeing that Lu Lan woke up, he hugged Yuanbao to comfort her.
He either straightened all the hair on Yuanbao's body, or clipped the small yellow flower hairpins left over from the Sun Tart activity on his hair.
As long as Pingjiang Prefecture was peaceful, Lu Lan had a lot of free time.
There was no way. Manager Wei was busy with the workshop and had no time to deal with him.
Wei Jinyun finished ticking the last entry in the account book, rubbed his wrist, stood up and walked towards Lu Lan who was playing with ingots.
"Lu Lan, I think my pickled bamboo shoots are ready. Would you like to try some? Let's cook some snail noodles later."
"You can try Li Ji first."
Lu Lan held Yuanbao and pointed at Li Ji.
"OK."
Wei Jinyun picked up the jar of pickled bamboo shoots and walked towards Li Ji.
Oh.
Lu Lan.
Last time, I asked him to try those stinky amaranth stems and moldy tofu, and he almost fainted.
"Master, catch your father!"
"I caught it, Sister Wei, I caught it!"
