Gu at her h as she shook her head When her watery eyesYun, both lowered their heads in shame They heard Su Nuan Nuan said, ”It's all fine, after all we still have plenty of ingredients We'll just make more Ah, just nohen Elder Mada, ah? Were you really that frightened?”
Xiang Yun covered her lips as she giggled, ”It's not that we're frightened, it's just Elder Mada just when Missy is at thebit with the Master in the courtyard In Missy's oords, how could this slave be able to deny knowing you? Therefore, how could we ever be willing to go out?”
Su Nuan Nuan, ”… …”
Tch, apparently they really were not afraid of the Elder Madam, instead they were so ashae the to think that she may have treated these two maids a little too well These two really wanted to flip the heavens, ah But, why did they not show these kinds of of rebellious behaviour against Duan Tingxuan? Is being too easy going and lenient a wrong thing?
Tch, so they really weren't afraid of the Elder Madam,
”Sometimes, it's not necessary to tell the truth” As she expressionlessly pour oil into the hot wok, Su Nuan Nuan slide her gaze over to Hong Lian This aze and hurriedly said, ”As for that Si Ping, he really was afraid of the Elder Mada the Master act like that, Elder Madary she gets, there was no way she would ever raise her hand against the er is on Si Ping who is always at the Master's side, isn't it? Hiding fro to protect his own hide”
”Tcheh!” Su Nuan Nuan could not resist a sharp laugh, ”So he's not at all afraid that his rinned, ”Our Master's temper is quite lenient, he treats people very well Especially the servants, to the point that he sometimes cover up our errors from our masters Perhaps Missy doesn't know, Elder Madaed by those two secondary wives to come demand for a divorce With just a feords, our 's presence would be difficult to explain, which is why he hid hi for being too quick witted, how could he actually be sold? Missy should not underestimate the Master”
”Who says I underestimate your Master? I've never looked down on that rascal, you understand? Don't you dare slanderLian's head Then, she placed the White Sugar Cake[1] that had been prepared earlier into the hot oil One by one they all slipped in and were fried into a golden brown colour This was the first ti Yun saw her h toYun ventured, ”Missy, what is this? This fragrance is so sweet”
”It's called White Sugar Cake, didn't you see lutinous rice has to be soaked, then properly washed…” without waiting for her to finish, Xiang Yun piped up, ”That's right, a few days ago, Missy had ordered rind those glutinous rice into flour, was it to make these?”
”Clever” Su Nuan Nuan nodded with a s to the rice flour this ed to see Just what mysterious technique is this? This shape is just too curious Missy please teach this servant, in the future when Missy wishes to eat this snack, all you have to do is order this servant to ave her a look, and nodded with a small 'tch' sound, ”Very well, I shall consider this as you being conscientious The actual work is in theof rice flour, once that is done the rest is easy The rice flour has to be kneaded into dough with cold water that has been boiled Then, stretch and twist the dough until it forether and twist some more until they form a wavy circle Fry them in the wok, then fish them out…”
”Oh, I know, once they're out, we can eat the at the plate filled with the fried White Sugar Cake It looked like she al one
Su Nuan Nuan ratulations, you'veI already told you these are called White Sugar Cakes, however, have you heardYun's eyes widened, ”These looked really fancy already, so this servant thought they're ready to be eaten Missy please don't keep this one in suspense, what other steps are there? Please tell this one, this servant is dying to know”
”Who's keeping you in suspense? If you hadn't stabbed your tongue in, I would have told you the whole process Still daring to ainstLian ”Go to the kitchen and fetch that large basin Place eight of these cakes on it, and sprinkle thear and rice flour, and it's done This is the reason why they're called White Sugare Cakes, understand?”
Hong Lian smiled, ”It really sounds quite troublesoar cakes, but they're not made this way”
Su Nuan Nuan waved her hand casually, and sar as their stuffing, so the naar as flavouring, so they could also be called White Sugar Cakes Nois that it's delicious”
”Yes, what Missy said is correct” Hong Lian was busy with her hands dusting the White Sugar Cakes in the large basin as she spoke, ”Missy look, doesn't this look like it had snowed a little here? Pleasing to the eye and seductive to the the nose, a very good dessert Fortunately these were not yet made when the Master is around, otherwise there would be none left”
Su Nuan Nuan was extrerade sugar and glutinous rice are all provided by him, do you really think I would not let him have 2 or 3 pieces? However, he's just too reedy snake, ready to gobble everything in sight, not at all afraid of choking to death God knohere all that pretentious princely air went”
”Whatever, let hi offthat Old Madam eat my snacks, since there aren't many people who don't hate me in this palace, but those extra wives of his and those fox buddies and dog friends were just too ood food for the Lian wiped a forehead full of cold sweat, and said softly, ”Um, Missy, this one understands the co friends are…?”
