Chongxi's little husband is very "soft and cute"

Guided by the butler, Lu Yunchen and Qin Muyan first went to the living room to sit for a while, had a few sips of tea, and waited for the guests to arrive, and the servants led them to the east side of the banquet.

This... Lu Yunchen hesitated. Since ancient times, the seat in the banquet should be facing east. Shen Changfu and his wife arranged them in this position, which is really important.

"Young Master Lu, is there something wrong?" the accompanying servant asked with a bow.

Qin Muyan was also a little puzzled when he saw that he had not sat down for a long time.

"Never." Lu Yunchen lifted up the hem of his clothes and sat down generously. He thinks so much of them, it's hard not to accept this affection.

After the two entered the table, the servant stood on the right side and filled the wine glass in front of him to eight full.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Qin, please wait for a moment, the master and wife will come over after washing up." After pouring the wine, the servant put the spout of the wine pot facing the two of them, bowed his body and stepped back slowly.

The guests were seated one after another, Lu Yunchen's position was too conspicuous, everyone's eyes fell on him and Qin Muyan, and they lowered their heads and whispered from time to time.

It was the first time to participate in such an occasion, Qin Muyan was very cautious and didn't know how to put his hands and feet.Lu Yunchen, on the other hand, was much calmer. He held the wine glass and sipped it calmly. He just smiled back at the straightforward and probing gaze of the person next to him.

Not long after, a small head popped out of the door, it was Shen An, he was wearing a moon blue half-arm short shirt, holding a tiger head doll, like a white and tender glutinous rice dumpling, stomping on the ground, and ran in across the threshold , and threw herself into Qin Muyan's arms, followed by a group of nurses and servant girls in a panic.

Qin Muyan picked him up, put him on his lap, pinched his chubby cheeks, Shen An grinned, a little starlight shone in his eyes, and two dimples appeared at the corners of his lips.

Shen Changfu brought Shi Yuan in. He usually wears a starched white mandarin jacket, a sweat towel on his shoulders to wipe sweat, plain blue trousers rolled up to the knees, and a pair of rag shoes on his feet. Now that he is dressed so formally, he looks like a master of a wealthy family.

The host took his seat and the banquet began. The maids held plates of delicate dishes and placed them on the table in front of the guests one by one. Shi Yuan took Shen An from Qin Muyan's arms. This little boy is the protagonist.

Shen Changfu raised his glass, "Today is my son's birthday. Mr. Shen and his wife, Shi Yuan, would like to thank you all for your kindness. You are here to attend my son's birthday banquet. Please don't be rude. Everyone who is here today is my own brother. If Mr. Shen does not entertain well I hope to forgive you.”

Lu Yunchen and Qin Muyan also stood up and toasted to show their respect.

After all the dishes were served, Shen Changfu took a few dishes from the plate and put them on the table, took the wine glasses filled with wine from the housekeeper, and sprinkled them all on the desk to worship the ancestors.

After all the ceremonies were over, everyone drank to their heart's content, and the scene was full of cups and fist-guessing orders, which was very lively.

Because the visitors were all familiar with each other, after drinking for three rounds, they started making noises in twos and threes, which became more and more out of order.

Only Lu Yunchen's side was very quiet, Shen Changfu and Yuan Yuan came over to offer a round of wine, and wanted to introduce the two of them to everyone, but Lu Yunchen declined, because today is Shen An's birthday, it's not good to overwhelm the host, it's out of courtesy.

When he was drunk and full of food, Lu Yunchen saw that everyone had almost eaten, and it was time to serve dessert. He and Qin Muyan informed Shi Yuan, got up quietly, and was led by his servants to the backyard.

The jelly powder has already been kneaded and shaped, and it is placed in cold water to freeze. All he has to do is to boil the syrup. When he encountered some melons and fruits in the kitchen, he picked a few and asked the master to cut them into cubes. Shaped, together with the brown syrup spread on the watery and white jelly, it is really exquisite.

Not long after, bowls of delicate and clear jelly were brought to the table by the maids.

"What... what is this?"

"Hey, it actually shines like water..."

"It's slippery to knock on..."

Everyone became interested in the jelly in front of them, and one by one couldn't wait to start, wanting to try this new thing.

"Shen Da, what is this? Why is it so slippery?" A man took a sharp breath, and half a bowl slipped into his stomach before he had tasted anything. He smacked his mouth and asked inexplicably.

"Good guy, where did you get this rare thing? I've never seen it before." The man on the desk next to him followed, then scooped up another spoonful and tasted it slowly.

Shen Changfu only grinned, "Eat yours, you won't be able to stop your mouth after eating."

"Hey, you guys are still putting on airs to sell yourself as a good boy."

"That's right, talk quickly"

The crowd booed in a swarm.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, and listen to me carefully. The dessert in front of you is called jelly, and it is made by my brother Yunchen and brother-in-law Qin Muyan." Seeing that he couldn't hug him, Shen Changfu hurried to Lu Yunchen's side , Seriously introduce it to everyone.

I have been curious about the identities of the two all morning, and now it is finally revealed.

Lu Yunchen stood up and bowed his hands, "Small handicrafts won't make you look good. Thanks to Brother Shen and Brother Shi's praise, Lu has the honor to come to your house as a guest. I'm not talented, everyone, please have a good time."

"Jelly? Chen has the guts to ask Brother Yunchen, are they doing business in Sishui Street?" A strong man frowned when he heard this, as if thinking of something.

"Hey, old Mr. Chen, you have always kept your ears out of the world and only cared about your grasshopper cage, yet you still know that my brother Yunchen is doing business in Surabaya Street?" Shen Changfu teased.

"It is true that Lu has set up a small food stall on Surabaya Street, selling some simple food, but Brother Chen came to support the show?" Lu Yunchen saw a strong man face to face, and he and Qin Muyan set up a stall on Surabaya Street for a long time. It's been a month, and I haven't seen this person show up.

"Hey, let me just say, although I have never been there, I have heard of the name of the little boss. The pot helmet in your house, my wife and my daughter once tasted it, and when I came back, I told me, this jelly, It’s your new one. I’ve heard my wife mention it before, but it’s a pity that the little boss’s business is so good, my wife sent the housekeeper to go a few times, and I haven’t eaten it yet. On the contrary, I’m so lucky today, so I tasted it first. Fresh, I want to show off to her when I go back." The strong man was a little proud, and took a few more mouthfuls with the bowl in his hand. The sweet brown syrup juice was wrapped in crisp melons and fruits, together with the refreshing water in cold water. The jelly is eaten together, and the internal organs feel comfortable.

"This jelly is quite heavy. My wife and I carry it from the village every day. It is really inconvenient, so the small shop supplies a limited amount every day. If Mrs. Chen is interested, you can send the housekeeper to let me know. I will reserve it in advance." Lu Yunchen was tall and straight, neither humble nor overbearing, even when talking about his status as a farmer, he was never humble, which made everyone present look at him differently.

"By the way, Brother Yunchen, the gift you gave to my son..." Shen Changfu gently reminded, after tasting this refreshing jelly, he was thinking about his son's gift, he clearly smelled Lu Lu The slight aroma coming out of the wooden box in Yun Chen's hand must be from eating.

"Brother Shen, that's the birthday cake that Ah Yan and I made for An An." Lu Yunchen explained, this is a congratulatory gift that he scratched his head and thought about for several days. This birthday is indispensable, isn't it the birthday cake? ?For this reason, he also specially set up a simple oven to bake the cake embryos.

"Birthday cake?" This pastry shop always sells short cheese, fragrant cakes, and candied fruit. It's the first time I've heard of this birthday cake.

Everyone immediately became interested and clamored to take a look, even Shen An opened his hands, "Yes...to...".

Soon, the housekeeper brought the wooden box up lightly, and the scent of milk lingered everywhere it passed.

Lifting the lid, Lu Yunchen carefully lifted the cake out from the bottom and placed it on the tray, the milky fragrance became more and more intense.

Everyone stretched their necks, oh well, they saw a milky white round cake-shaped object on the tray, surrounded by a circle of lotus-colored lace on the side, like ripples in water, with a few floral decorations on the top, and a sharp outline in the middle A lifelike little tiger.

The little tiger sits majesticly on it, with a round face and a big head, dressed in black and yellow stripes, with a pair of pointed ears sticking out, listening vigilantly to the movement around it, with a tiger head and a tiger brain, it is really cute.

"Hey, isn't our An An a tiger?" Somebody yelled, and everyone's eyes fell on the lively little tiger. Even Shen An couldn't stay in Shi Yuan's arms. He tilted his body with his feet, insisting on seeing what the little tiger looked like.

"Brother Yun Chen and Brother Qin have a heart for my son." Shen Changfu cupped his fists to express his thanks.

"Brother Shen is polite, time is short, please prepare a little gift, please don't be disgusted with Brother Shen and Brother Shi, and try something new", it is indeed too anxious, and it is difficult to find materials for making cakes, Lu Yunchen just built an "oven" It took a lot of time, and he had to choose a simple style in a hurry. If it was placed in later generations, he would have to make this cake into a flower under the premise that all the ingredients should be available.

I didn't expect the birthday cake to look like this. It was beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone hurriedly urged the housekeeper to divide the cake. As for the little tiger, it was dug out by itself. Shen An looked around for a long time, feeling very rare .

According to the number of people, the housekeeper cut the cake into small pieces, and the maids distributed them to the guests.

"Brother Yunchen, what is this wrapped around?" Shen Changfu poked curiously at the soft and dense "milk"-like thing on the outer layer, and asked suspiciously, letting him travel far and wide to see many things in the world, but he has never met such a thing. what a cake.

"Brother Shen, the outer layer is cream, and the inner layer is cake-like cake." Lu Yunchen explained that it was cream and cake embryo, and everyone couldn't understand it.

But this birthday cake smells very sweet, it's all big and rough, and they don't pay attention to these details. The most important thing is to eat, the taste is the most important thing, and the appearance is just the icing on the cake.

Everyone scooped up a spoonful and poured it into their mouths. The cream was mellow and tender, and the inside of the cake was burnt yellow. It was fluffy and soft to the bite, embedded with a thick milky aroma, and the aftertaste was a touch of sweetness.

Qin Muyan has been silently paying attention to the expressions of everyone since just now. Seeing everyone's amazed looks, he quietly relieved his heart. His husband is really powerful, and he must be extraordinary when he makes a move. These people are really talented Good luck.

"Little Boss Lu, what are you putting on? It tastes sour and rusty?" The brother in plain long gown pointed to the thick layer of crimson in the middle of the cake.

"It's jam made from boiled peaches." Lu Yun wiped off the snow-white cream sticking to Qin Muyan's mouth, and replied in a gentle voice.

The author has something to say:

The world in the novel is really good, much better than in reality. I hope that everyone's life will be a book of sweet stories.
