The golden and jade of the peasant girl in charge

Chapter 536 Red Yeast Powder (23)
Mu Luo seemed to have lost the complacency she had just now, but the strange smile in her eyes made Ning Ci feel panicked.

"In the last round, I will compete with you in knife competition."

with a knife...

Ning Ci lowered her head and glanced at her right hand, while Jiang Chengye behind her also frowned.

Mu Luo made a request to Jiang Yan, hoping that he could order someone to send ice cubes the same size as a person.

What she wants to compare is carving knives and ice sculptures.

"The food in the palace is very particular, it's not enough just to cook the food well, the carving skill is just a basic thing, the princess will not dare to fight, right?" Mu Luo looked at Ning Ci with a smile, but Ning Ci didn't answer.

Liu Minyuan on the side didn't know if she was aroused by this disgusting woman, she stood up again: "You woman, you must have done it on purpose! Ning Ci's hands are tight, you are dancing and sculpting , it is clearly aimed at her weakness!"

But how could Mu Luo be affected by these neither painful nor hot words?She looked directly at Ning Ci: "Didn't the concubine just now act like a daughter to be self-improving? Now she dare not fight? It's okay, as long as you admit defeat, I won't make things difficult for you."

A large piece of ice has already been brought in by a palace official, and the whole hall seems to have become somewhat clearer because of this piece of ice.

Mu Luo came back to her senses, took out a rolled cloth from the cloth bag beside her, and rolled it away in a row, with knives of all sizes and ice picks on it.

Indeed, come prepared.

"Okay, I agree." Ning Ci complied calmly, but was immediately pulled back by a warm hand.

Jiang Chengye looked at her worriedly: "Your hand is just right, didn't you say that you should not overuse it!"

Ning Ci shook her head: "It's okay, I won't hurt myself, don't worry."

rest assured?How to rest assured?With such a big piece of ice, her hand should be useless again!

Curtain had already taken out the ice chisel, she closed her eyes and occupied a moment in front of the ice that was taller than her, then opened her eyes and began to chisel out a shape.

At the same time, the hall was pushed out a few ways to move, and there was a sweet and fragrant smell from the boiled stuff inside, Ning Ci raised his eyebrows: "Jam?"

Mu Luo once again attracted all eyes.Her movements were very fast and her strength was precise, and soon people could see the embryonic form of Avalokitesvara.

"It seems that she is really fighting with you." Jiang Chengye whispered, but when he looked at Ning Ci beside him, he couldn't see that she was worried at all.

In fact, starting from the Kungfu tea just now, he was amazing enough.It never occurred to him that she could do this.

Ning Ci just looked at it for a while, Brick said to Jiang Chengye: "Is Yan Yi there?"

Jiang Chengye nodded.

Ning Ci smiled suddenly: "Let him help me get a few things, and by the way, ask Mr. Shen from Shangshi Bureau to prepare them together. I can trust their craftsmanship."

Jiang Chengye didn't know what she was going to do again, but it was undeniable that his curiosity and anticipation were stronger than ever.

What Mu Luo sculpted was Avalokitesvara with Thousand Hands, and other things, she carved each hand with a wide palm. Although it is not possible to really carve a thousand hands, it is enough to have such a carver. ability.

Looking at such exquisite and interesting carvings, time passed so quickly without realizing it. Ordinary ice sculptures would take a long time, and the ice cubes had to be prevented from melting. That's why Mu Luo was able to carve the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara so quickly. It looks like it must have been practiced countless times.

Her movements were neat and proficient. When Guanyin was completed, she put the boiled jam into Guanyin's palm spoon by spoon. Interestingly, the jam entered Guanyin's palm and quickly solidified Jam cake, because of the ice, directly became a jam sorbet!
When Mu Luo put down the last carving knife, her hands were trembling slightly, but when she heard the exclamation of the people around her, she looked at Ning Ci with a teasing smile: "Concubine Shizi, how are you?"

Someone went to put the sorbet in Guanyin's hand into a plate. The sorbet is in the shape of a palm, and it is still presented one by one from Jiang Yan. Now it is spring and summer, and the weather is not very hot, but if it is hot summer Day, this must be a delicacy for relieving summer heat!
"Shizifei...you..." Before Mu Luo finished speaking, someone had already entered.

The leader was Mr. Shen Yuanhui from the Shangshi Bureau. Shen Yuanhui bowed slightly to Jiang Yan and explained: "Your Majesty, the things that the concubine ordered us to prepare have been prepared. I wonder if they can be presented."

Jiang Yan has taken Ning Ci with admiration since the Kung Fu tea just now.He is the same as Jiang Chengye now, instead of worrying about whether there will be a game or not, he has more expectations in his heart!
"Let's get started!" Jiang Yan agreed, and Shen Yuanhui immediately began to talk.

The ice sculpture of Avalokitesvara was moved aside.A group of people used it, and they actually lifted a large piece of tofu, which was also human-sized, but lying sideways, in the posture of eight sedan chairs!
In this way, everyone understands——Shi Zifei wants to carve tofu! ?

And just after the big piece of tofu was put away, a large wooden trough was brought in from the outside, and the big piece of tofu was put into the wooden trough with the bottom plate below, and then poured in clean water to put it into the wooden trough. It's better than tofu.

Immediately afterwards, the same big pot was pushed in, and everyone understood that it seemed to be more than carving, but in fact it was still a dish to be made.But this big pot is not jam, but a very delicious clear soup.

Yan Yi had already fetched the set of knives that Jiang Chengye personally beat for Ning Ci.

Ning Ci took a handy one, and just like Mu Luo, she closed her eyes first, then opened her eyes, took off her shoes and socks, and entered the clear water wooden trough just like that.

Water, tofu carving in water! ?
The people around couldn't help standing up, and saw Ning Ci quietly sinking into the water in a light gauze dress, she was sitting cross-legged, her bare hands were extraordinarily white and beautiful in the water, when carving, the tofu on the Because of being soaked in water, the debris easily floated away and slowly fell to the bottom of the wooden tank.Ning Ci was like this, sculpting in a leisurely manner, I don't know how long it took, the sky outside became dark, and Ning Ci's Sleeping Buddha also took shape.

Sleeping Buddha, really Sleeping Buddha!

It was lifelike, and the carving was exquisite. Most importantly, the tofu was extremely soft and easy to break, so it was more cautious than ice sculptures, but Ning Ci just kept carving out the Sleeping Buddha.

With the last cut, the Sleeping Buddha took shape.Ning Ci nodded to the people on the side, her whole body was like a lotus emerging from water, making people dumbfounded.

Almost immediately, Jiang Chengye stepped forward and picked her up, wiped her clean, and put on her shoes and socks.

"Your clothes are all wet, go and change quickly." Jiang Chengye put on a coat for her, but worried that she would catch a cold.
