The weather in March makes it hard to figure out any patterns.
It was still slightly cold and drizzling in the morning, but the sun came out in the afternoon.
It's not too warm, but at least it's slowly baking the earth.
However, the spring sunshine is just okay to look at, and the temperature is not too high.
Until next time, the land outside, which was wet by rain, had not dried yet.
Fortunately, everywhere in the capital, there are either clean bluestone roads or completed cement roads.
So, even if it’s a rainy day, don’t be afraid.
As for the outside of the city, there is also a long cement road paved, and the tamping in other places is very thick. If it rains lightly, it will not have a big impact.
After Xiao Nianzhi got off duty, he briefly greeted his colleagues, then got into a carriage and headed out of the city.
Prince Kang's Mansion has prepared a small birthday banquet today, and the guests are all colleagues or friends who have close contacts and good relationships.
Yan Changxia and Yan Baochun are twins. They share a birthday, so the house is really lively.
Of course, at this time, the cook of Prince Kang's palace did not need to take action. The palace sent an imperial cook to help.
In the evening, the three brothers and sisters took a carriage and drove straight to Zhuangzi outside the city.
On the way, Yan Changxia couldn't help but get excited: "Can I also have cake today?"
In fact, there is already a cake.
The candy shop has already launched small birthday cakes since the Chinese New Year.
Among the master chefs, many are the best in Chinese dim sum. It is actually not too difficult for them to try Western dim sum.
And it’s just a 12-inch cake. It doesn’t require much decoration and so on, so it’s not too difficult to learn.
As for cakes with more than two layers...
Well, I'm still slowly figuring it out.
Masters also need to learn.
Prince Kang's Mansion must have ordered the cake early in the morning, and everyone even ate it at noon.
But for Yan Changxia, it's different, really different.
Can it be the same if it is made by a good friend and bought by me?
Yan Changxia is looking forward to it very much.
Yan Baochun couldn't help but look forward to it.
After all, I tasted Xiao Nianzhi's craftsmanship last time, and now that I think about it, there is still a sweet taste between my lips and teeth.
Yan Baochun even somewhat understood why Zhou Yuxing, a fool, wanted to kidnap Xiao Nianzhi home to be a cook at the beginning.
Is this the craft?
Who doesn’t want it?
Yan Baochun thought that if Xiao Nianzhi hadn't been the future Aunt Wang, and if the other party hadn't been on good terms with his sister, he would have wanted to kidnap him back home.
He has no idea about beauty, but when it comes to delicious food...
Still very attractive!
Yan Baosui was actually quite curious, but as the elder brother, he was very calm and did not reveal too much thoughts.
The younger brother and sister were chattering uncontrollably.
Although it is a bit noisy, but more importantly, it is still Yan Baosui's favorite, the fireworks of life.
He thought about getting married in June, although he was also looking forward to his future marriage life, looking forward to having another person in his life for the rest of his life, and even having many children in the future.
but……
Maybe it's because after thinking about it, I can't help but miss the past.
When you spend time with your brothers and sisters, your relationship may become more and more distant as you get married, right?
Thinking of this possibility, Yan Baosui felt a little uncomfortable.
The more this happens, the more he likes to watch his younger brothers and sisters playing around in front of him.
He thought it would be good to see them being free and enjoying life now.
Yan Changxia and the others arrived early and still needed to clean up a bit. They also needed to keep an eye on the meals prepared in the kitchen.
Even though she had made arrangements in advance, Yan Changxia was worried.
When I went to ask, I discovered that Xiao Nianzhi had Chang Shan deliver a suckling pig at noon.
As soon as Yan Changxia looked at the pig, he roughly guessed where it was raised: "Wow, it has a good shape, and the meat looks firm and delicious. It was raised at Shanglinyuan!"
After all, at noon, their banquet included roast suckling pig.
There were several slices of meat on each table, which were mellow and plump. Now that I think about it, Yan Changxia still has some aftertaste.
But the quantity was too small, and it felt like it was gone before I even ate much.
However, Yan Changxia also knew that this food would be greasy if eaten too much.
Plus, there are so many dishes, you can’t just eat them all on one plate, right?
Thinking of the taste at noon, Yan Changxia gave instructions: "Arrange it, arrange it!"
Yan Baochun looked at it from the side and said: "Bake it bigger. If the fat is too thick, I don't like it. I like it to be burnt."
The thick fat is burnt until it is charred and crispy. What you will experience more when you take a bite is the charred and crispy texture.
Yan Baochun said: He likes it like this and doesn’t like it roasted at a low temperature!
Yan Baosui actually doesn't like this kind of fat stuff.
After all, a person who is about to get married is still a person with baggage, how can he allow himself to become a fat ball before marriage?
So, he took a small bite at noon.
Now looking at the still active little pig, Yan Baosui swallowed silently and did not dare to speak.
He is afraid that his saliva will fall out and his baggage will fall to the ground again!
Hold on!
He can definitely hold on!
Even if you are fat, you have to get married before getting fat again.
In that case, it would be too late for the wife to regret it, right?
Thinking of his wife, Yan Baosui secretly blushed with embarrassment.
It's a pity that the younger brother and sister are still arguing about whether the hotpot is delicious or the tender one is better, and they don't care about his life or death.
When it got dark, Xiao Nianzhi finally arrived.
The Guo sisters naturally followed.
Yan Feiquan and Yan Nanrong could not miss it and came with Yan Xingxuan.
The two of them went to Prince Kang's Mansion at noon, and to Prince Wei's Mansion in the afternoon.
This day was really busy.
Eat, drink, and have fun.
However, this kind of good life is only for these two days, and they will have to go back to work tomorrow.
Yan Nanrong performed well years ago, so after today's fun, he has to go to the Etiquette Department to help.
Nowadays, the officials of the Ministry of Rites are busy with spring affairs and receiving envoys from small foreign countries. There are some chores that no one can do and some idle people are needed.
Yan Nanrong was immediately assigned.
Yan Feiquan wanted to laugh at that time, but before the smile appeared on his face, His Majesty arranged other jobs.
He goes to the Ministry of Industry!
Yan Feiquan wanted to refuse at that time: No, he just has a face that looks like he can work?
But, he didn't dare.
After the queen knew about this, she encouraged him, saying that he had great talent and would definitely do well.
Yan Feiquan was held up so high that he couldn't even try to cheat.
In the end, I could only finish two bowls of rice and a plate of meat with tears in my eyes.
Now when I came here, when I heard that there was roasted suckling pig, Yan Feiquan didn't care about anything else and rushed over to check the progress of the cooking: "Focus, focus, I like the edges to be burnt, it's crispy and delicious when bitten, and the fat is baked out."
It’s delicious, it’s not greasy, and it tastes good. By the way, the seasoning is great, perfect for rice!”
Woo hoo, he has to go to the Ministry of Industry tomorrow to do physical work, so he can’t eat more!
