Chapter 583 Preparations before the opening of the candy shop
Xiao Qing is young, and now she doesn't care at all about getting married.
Although I see that my two brothers already have fiancées, sometimes I still feel envious when I think about it.
But, just occasionally.
More often, he still thinks about...
How to read the book?
Where is the delicious food?
When will sister come back?
Xiao Nianzhi felt very good about the fact that the marriage of his two brothers had been settled. He asked a few more questions and found out that everyone was satisfied, which made him feel relieved.
Later, because Xiao Qing was there to make fun, everyone quickly changed the topic and talked about something else.
Daily anecdotes about the capital, as well as gossip about various families.
In fact, Xiao Zhuo and Xiao Ye are older and are relatively calm about this kind of thing and will not easily discuss other people's rights and wrongs behind their backs.
However, Xiao Qing couldn't resist his young age. Most of the people who entered the academy the same year as him were about the same age as him, or even younger than him.
Everyone is at that age where they are lively and active and curious about everything.
Therefore, when talking about it from time to time, Xiao Qing heard a lot, and now she would unconsciously say some things.
It just so happened that Xiao Nianzhi was also willing to listen to various gossips so that he could have some understanding of what happened here during the six months since he left Beijing.
As they talked and laughed, the night grew darker.
The father and son will either be on duty or going to school tomorrow.
Therefore, everyone quickly dispersed and went back to their respective courtyards to sleep.
Turn around and wake up early in the morning. The mountains are covered with silver and the whole world has turned into a world of ice and snow.
Of course, being cold is normal.
Isatis got up early in the morning and specially changed the charcoal fire, and also changed the soup for Xiao Nianzhi, otherwise she would have woken up from the cold this morning.
Therefore, it is so cold in Beijing that it is not suitable to sleep on a bed, so you have to sleep on a kang!
When Xiao Nianzhi woke up early in the morning, his breath was all white.
She whispered: "It's so cold."
Then he climbed up reluctantly.
Xiao Zhuo went to court early in the morning, and the Xiao family brothers also hurried to the academy.
After all, the courses are tight, especially with the Spring Festival approaching. Various academies in the capital are now busy with rolls. The Xiao brothers are also among the top scorers, so they will definitely not miss classes easily.
Therefore, Xiao Nianzhi is the only master left in the family now.
And she still needs to get up early and go to the Ministry of Works Yamen to check in, and then see if there is anything. If not, go and see how the preparations are at the shop?
All the dessert chefs were selected by Yan Xingxuan.
He said he was barely satisfied. Of course, his reference standard was Xiao Nianzhi.
Yan Xingxuan has a filter for Xiao Nianzhi. He thinks that the little girl is doing well and the desserts she makes are the most delicious.
Therefore, no matter how good those masters are, in Yan Xingxuan's eyes, they are still inferior to Xiao Nianzhi's.
However, Xiao Nianzhi still believed in Yan Xingxuan's choice.
After all, the other party has very high standards for delicious food, so the chef they want to choose should be very good.
If you have free time today, you can go and have a look.
It just so happens that I still have some arrangements for desserts and sweets, so I can communicate with the chef.
I had given Yan Xingxuan some recipes before, but they were not enough.
Once it is really open, you have to continuously add creative things in order to continue to attract visitors.
Especially on this cold day...
Well, takeout business can actually be arranged as well.
This is the tool...
Bicycle?
Today's technical issues are stuck here, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete.
Everything else is easy to say, there can be ready-made technologies or some substitutes.
But the one-way bearing that allows the bicycle to move freely forward and backward is a rather troublesome technical issue.
Moreover, it is actually not easy to travel by bicycle in the bustling streets of Beijing.
So, riding a horse?
No, it won't work on busy streets either.
No other livestock is allowed.
So, does it still have to be artificial?
The cost suddenly went up.
When going to the Ministry of Industry Yamen, Xiao Nianzhi was still thinking about this issue.
When he arrived at the Ministry of Works to check in, Zhao Shangshu had not returned from the morning meeting. Xiao Nianzhi simply checked his work and found that no one had arranged it for the time being, so he generously skipped work.
She went directly to the candy store.
The door is still closed and final adjustments are being made.
When Xiao Nianzhi arrived, Yan Xingxuan had just arrived and was conducting final inspections on the corresponding items.
Seeing people coming, Yan Xingxuan was quite happy: "Think about it."
After calling out, he directly took Xiao Nianzhi's hand and started to visit their second-floor candy shop.
Xiao Nianzhi has been busy since he came back and really has no time to care about these things.
Therefore, Yan Xingxuan was naturally happy that it was rare to come here now, but he had to take people to visit all the places.
All relevant things and personnel were also introduced.
Yan Xingxuan just had to put a sign on his body: I am a part-time worker and a tool man!
Xiao Nianzhi was amused by his appearance. The sweets maker hadn't arrived yet, and only a few kitchen staff were there, preparing various ingredients.
Firewood, pots, etc. were already prepared. After Xiao Nianzhi saw it, he couldn't help but get ready to make a move.
Yan Xingxuan saw her move, and now he didn't want his sweetheart to work too hard.
But if Xiao Nianzhi wanted to give it a try, he wouldn't stop him and would even work hard to get started.
Yan Xingxuan's fire-making skills, knife skills, and even the identification of certain materials are now particularly good.
Except for the cooking step, he can complete all other steps very well, ensuring that Xiao Nianzhi will not be tired!
Xiao Nianzhi happens to have a lot of various ingredients brought back from Chenzhou, and now he can try them: "Let's go and try them."
When Yan Xingxuan heard this, he also became energetic: "By the way, think about it, Ruzhou also sent a lot of things back, you can come and take a look."
Ruzhou is located in the south and is close to the sea. Although it cannot be said to be like spring all year round, the climate is indeed very good and many crops can be grown in all seasons.
Therefore, when Xiao Nianzhi heard that it was from over there, Xiao Nianzhi became more energetic.
The two of them quickly checked the ingredients and saw that there were newly delivered taro and processed cassava flour. Xiao Nianzhi had a lot of ideas in his mind.
After Xiao Nianzhi looked through the ingredients, he whispered to Yan Xingxuan: "Let's make two sweet soups to taste them first."
When Yan Xingxuan heard this, he immediately rolled up his sleeves: "Think about it, what should we deal with first?"
Xiao Nianzhi was not polite to him. He pointed at the large taros and said, "Peel this first, and then cut it into small pieces of this size."
While talking, Xiao Nianzhi also gestured at the size of the taro pieces.
If you want to make sweet taro soup, if it is too large, it will affect the beauty and taste of the food.
If it is too small, it will easily melt into one place with the soup, and you will not be able to enjoy the fragrant and glutinous texture.
Therefore, you need to pay attention to the size.
Yan Xingxuan quickly understood and went to work.
When Shilan saw that the prince was alive, she couldn't be idle, so she immediately came over. Although she didn't say a word, her meaning was obvious.
