Guozijian little cook

Chapter 118
Toffee?

After hearing this key word, Xiao Nianzhi thought, this person might be Aunt Yu's former master.

Listening to the nostalgic tone, the other party is probably also the object of Aunt Yu's blessing this time.

Xiao Nianzhi was not in a hurry to speak out, but patiently and obediently listened to Aunt Yu's muttering.

However, she only mentioned the concubine, and then she showed nostalgia and remained silent for a long time.

After a long time, Aunt Yu finally got out of the past emotions. After opening her eyes, she quietly wiped the tears around her eyes, and pointed to the snack: "Think about it and try it quickly. Auntie knows that you are good at craftsmanship. But let's also try what other people do, and try to enjoy it, and don't always torment ourselves."

The snacks brought back by Aunt Yu are delicate and small, and taste very good.

In today's limited seasoning, the pastries that do not lose the modern taste can be seen from the craftsmanship and effort of the producers.

Xiao Nianzhi took a bite, feeling the taste of soft and glutinous sand, the sweet and delicious taste, his eyes lit up, and his head nodded: "Mmm, delicious!"

Hearing what she said, Aunt Yu curled her lips slightly, her brows and eyes were full of pride: "That's right, this is made by the chef in the Empress Dowager's Palace. Normally, even Your Majesty may not be able to eat it." Woolen cloth."

The two of them ate two plates of snacks on the way, and it was too hot to keep things. What Aunt Yu meant was, eat as soon as possible, and don't make it easier for others.

Around July [-]th, there were many people who went to the White Horse Temple to pray for blessings. If they met someone they knew well and were seen by them, they might have to share food.

Aunt Yu didn't want to take advantage of others.

That is to say, her little apprentice can do it, but others...

Don't even think about it!
The carriage swayed, and after more than half an hour, it finally arrived at the White Horse Temple.

The White Horse Temple is halfway up the mountain. The section of the road from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain is facing the gate of the White Horse Temple. There is a long, almost invisible end of the steps.

Of course, the abbot said that the Buddha is tolerant, and if there are people who are inconvenient to climb the steps up the mountain, they can also come in a carriage.

Therefore, on the east side of the steps, there is a mountain road that is not particularly good, and you can drive a horse-drawn carriage up the mountain.

Aunt Yu looked at the steps, then at the hot sun outside, and sighed softly, "Why don't we take a carriage."

After hearing this, Xiao Nianzhi thought for a while, what Aunt Yu meant, in the past, she probably climbed up the mountain.

Guessing this possibility, Xiao Nianzhi said softly: "Why don't we climb? This is more sincere."

Although it was said that the original owner didn't want the body, but Xiao Nianzhi was picking it up for nothing, and he was still several years younger, no matter what the reason was, he really had to burn some incense and burn paper for Mother Xiao.

Do your best and seek peace of mind.

Hearing what she said, Aunt Yu smiled helplessly: "It will be very tiring, the sun is still bright, and maybe it will cause heat stroke."

Xiao Nianzhi was not in a hurry to persuade, but asked in doubt: "How did the aunt go up the mountain in the past?"

After hearing this, Aunt Yu smiled again: "You are a clever ghost, so let's go."

Obviously, Aunt Yu used to climb the mountain.

Xiao Nianzhi felt that she had good physical strength, so it was not impossible for her to crawl.

But the sun is indeed very strong. If you climb up the mountain, you have to cook something to relieve the heat, otherwise you may feel uncomfortable.

They specially brought some ingredients over, and while climbing the mountain, Xiao Nianzhi thought about the refreshing food in his mind.

The two climbed the steps up the mountain, and the luggage they brought was sent up by the coachman in a horse-drawn carriage on the mountain road.

They also brought over a pot of pickled cucumbers, this thing...

The light jar itself is extremely heavy, even if Xiao Nianzhi is willing, Aunt Yu is not willing to carry this thing up the mountain.

It's delicious, but it's heavy...

Then refuse it!
The two of them had just crawled for a while when they heard hearty laughter behind them, which sounded quite familiar.

Before Xiao Nianzhi could react, who was this familiar voice, before she even had time to look back, Aunt Yu reminded her softly, "It's Miss Guo."

After speaking, the two turned their heads together, and found that it was indeed Guo Sixue. The other party was dressed in a bright green outfit, looking sassy and thin, with a very chivalrous air.

The other party was not alone, and beside her was a young man who looked similar to her, with unruly eyebrows and eyes. The young man looked like he was only eleven or twelve years old.

Xiao Nianzhi guessed that the other party might be the son of the Guo family.

Because Guo Sixue's eyes are similar to his own, Xiao Nianzhi has some impression of her.

Everyone knew each other, so now when they heard the laughter, they turned their heads again, and it seemed that it was not good not to stand and wait for a while.

Guo Sixue quickly spotted them, and raised her hand high in greeting: "Aunt Yu, I want to... Yuan Niang!"

Guo Ruxue wanted to call Xiao Nianzhi's nickname loudly, considering that there were people coming down the mountain, and there were people climbing up the mountain a little farther away, and when people heard that the girl's boudoir name was not very good, the words were on their lips. , and turned a corner.

Xiao Nianzhi smiled and raised his hand and waved, without deliberately raising his voice: "Miss Guo."

Guo Sixue has excellent physical strength, three steps at a time, pulled the young man beside her, and quickly caught up: "Yuanniang can call me Bixue, or Xueniang, our family doesn't have a nice nickname, just Call it whatever you want."

The young man next to her, who looked similar to her, rolled his eyes gracefully after hearing this, and whispered: "It's okay to listen, Mrs. Guo."

After Guo Sixue heard this, he slammed a throat lock, but was dodged in time by the other party. The young boy became playful and shook his head at her: "Slightly slightly, I can't catch it, hey, just watch out for you... ..."

Before he could say the following words, Guo Sixue made a false sweep, followed by a capture, and successfully captured him back.

The young boy was so angry that he ground his teeth: "You are cheating!"

Guo Sixue increased the strength in his hands, and smiled: "Soldiers never tire of cheating!"

After controlling the person, Guo Sixue smiled embarrassedly at Aunt Yu and Xiao Nianzhi: "Young brother is reckless, let aunt and Yuanniang see a joke."

After finishing speaking, let the young boy stand upright, and re-introduced: "This is the younger brother Guo Yinghui."

"This is my aunt's apprentice, sister Xiao."

Hearing his sister's introduction, Guo Yinghui bowed his hands politely, and Xiao Nianzhi politely returned the peer salute.

After a brief greeting, everyone decided to go together.

The Guo Suxue siblings have excellent physical strength. For them, mountain climbing is like playing. If they don't pay attention to politeness and self-cultivation during the process, they can even run and jump.

In comparison, Xiao Nianzhi's physical strength is not so outstanding.

However, in fact, she climbed with ease, but Aunt Yu was physically weak and rested twice halfway, and then climbed to the middle of the mountain with difficulty.

During the day, the gate of the White Horse Temple is wide open.

Because there are many pilgrims coming and going, there are many pilgrims standing or kneeling inside the gate of the temple and in the main hall at this time.

After Xiao Nianzhi and the others came in, soon a little novice came over to ask whether they were offering incense or praying for blessings.

If you pray for blessings, you need to arrange a fasting room in the backyard.
