Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times

Xia Zixuan and a few others came under the hawthorn tree and saw clusters of bright red hawthorns hanging on the tree, like small lanterns.

Xia Zixuan raised her hand to pick one, wiped it casually, put it in her mouth and took a bite. It surprisingly didn't taste too sour.

The one she picked might be because it was very ripe. It tasted about 60% to 70% sweet. The flesh tasted sour and sweet in her mouth. Xia Zixuan couldn't help but eat two more.

"Sister Xia, how does it taste? Don't just eat by yourself!" Wang Xinyue was a little anxious when she saw Xia Zixuan eating three in a row, but she didn't dare to eat any more.

Xiao Meng didn't wait for Xia Zixuan to speak, she said: "Girl, this hawthorn seems to be different from the ones we ate before! It doesn't taste too sour, and it has a sweet taste. Girl, try it." Xiao Meng picked one and handed it to Wang Xinyue.

Wang Xinyue took the hawthorn and looked at it. It was so cute and red. She put it in her mouth and took a bite. "Hmm? The taste is really different! The flesh is sweet and sour and delicate. Sister Xia, let's pick more and take them back!" Wang Xinyue said while eating and looking at Xia Zixuan.

"Okay, don't eat so much, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable at night." Xia Zixuan remembered that eating too much hawthorn would cause acid reflux.

"Okay, Sister Xia, I won't eat anymore. Let's start picking!" Wang Xinyue said after eating two hawthorns.

Xia Zixuan asked Zhishu to bring a backpack, "Zhishu, you and Xiaomeng pick the fruits on the side with a backpack, and Xinyue and I will pick the fruits on this side. Just pick the fruits from the lower parts first."

"Yes, girl, I understand." Zhishu said, holding the other backpack in Xiaomeng's hand.

"Sister Xia, we can't eat all of them, you picked so many! Can we use them all?" Wang Xinyue asked doubtfully.

"Don't worry! I'll definitely use them all up. I'll make some candied haws for you, and then some hawthorn cakes, fried hawthorns with rock sugar and so on." Xia Zixuan said as she picked up some simple and easy things to make.

"Sister Xia, please stop talking. I believe it." Wang Xinyue quickly interrupted Xia Zixuan. If she continued talking, she would have wanted to take Xia Zixuan back home to prepare something delicious.

Xia Zixuan raised the corner of her mouth and said, "Okay, I won't say anything."

While talking, the two did not forget to pick hawthorns.

Soon the four of them had picked two full baskets of hawthorns. Xia Zixuan glanced at the time and said, "Okay, let's just pick these today! We should go back."

"Okay, Sister Xia, wait for me to pick the bigger ones." Wang Xinyue said as she stood on tiptoe to reach them.

"Oh! I finally took it off. Look, Sister Xia." Wang Xinyue happily showed it to Xia Zixuan.

Xia Zixuan turned around and saw that she was holding four or five hawthorns about four centimeters in size and showing them to her, "Well, that's amazing. I didn't expect that wild hawthorns could grow so big."

"Right! These are for Sister Xia." Wang Xinyue stuffed the hawthorns into Xia Zixuan's hands and said.

"Okay, thank you Xinyue, let's go back!" Xia Zixuan said as she put on the backpack.

The other backpack was carried by Zhishu, because Xiaomeng was petite and only about thirteen years old, and Zhishu was older than her, so it was impossible for her to carry the backpack.

Wang Xinyue wanted to carry him on her back, but Xia Zixuan didn't let her. After all, they were guests and cousins ​​of Mu Chenyi and the others.

Also, the girls from wealthy families probably had never worked before, and they were afraid that Wang Xinyue would break the hawthorns they had picked with great difficulty.

"Great, let's go home and make something delicious." Following Wang Xinyue's lively tone, the group walked further and further down the mountain...

When the four of them got home, they went straight to the kitchen. "Girls, you're back. Zhiqiu and I learned how to make flower cakes. Do you want to try some?"

As they spoke, Jinghe and Zhiqiu came over and took the backpacks from Xia Zixuan and Zhishu.

"Well, okay, let's take a break before making these hawthorns. Xinyue, go wash your hands first, and come back to taste the flower cakes made by Jinghe and the others." Xia Zixuan said.

"Okay, Sister Xia, I'll go now." As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Xiao Meng to the bathroom.

Xia Zixuan didn't go back to wash it, so she asked Jinghe to fetch a basin of water and washed it directly in the kitchen yard.

"Miss, I put the flower cakes on the table." Zhiqiu brought over two plates of flower cakes and said.

Xia Zixuan responded: "Okay, leave it there!"

"Miss, what are you going to do with these hawthorns? Zhiqiu and I will take care of it." Jinghe asked as she poured the hawthorns into a basin.

"First wash the hawthorns, then remove the cores. Wait for you to come back and deal with the rest, I'll tell you." Xia Zixuan said as she wiped her hands, sat down, took a piece of flower cake and started eating.

The cake was filled with roses, which she had grown in the garden. She didn't expect the two maids to use them to make cakes. Well, let's not talk about them, since they were making them for her anyway.
