    Chapter 61 Suspected rival in love

    Lin Yan and Pei Fei sat down against each other.

    The Dragon Boat Festival was finally over, and the whole city rejoiced by the Qujiang River. There was no big chasing or crushing. Beijing is over, and the Jingzhao Mansion has finally ended the days when everyone stayed on duty.

    Lin Yan had a normal rest, and Pei Fei came to Lin's house again to eat and drink.

    But half an hour later, Pei Fei threw his son and conceded defeat, pulled the hidden sac and leaned on the couch, with a gloomy look between his beautiful eyebrows.

    Lin Yan cleaned up the chessboard.

    Suddenly, Pei Fei saw the colored threads flashing through Lin Yan's sleeves, like a thread of longevity, and he couldn't help laughing: "It can be seen that Jane is in the heart of the emperor, and the saint even thinks of you even a thread of longevity."

    Lin Yan casually covered his sleeves down, "This is not given by a saint."

    "Mrs. Tai put it on for you?" Although many colleagues wore this in May, Pei Fei only asked this question when he knew that Lin Yan usually didn't like these things.

    "no."

    Pei Fei suddenly thought of a possibility, "Could it be—" Yes, they have already exchanged gifts of love! Thinking of his unfavorable relationship with Princess Fuhui, Pei Fei was very envious. The career path has been very smooth.

    "Don't think too much, it's not what you think." Lin Yan explained with pursed lips.

    Pei Fei raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it from Mrs. Shen?"

    Lin Yan closed the chess piece jar, "You need to think about the eldest princess, Jingzhao's public opinion has been mentioned a lot recently."

    During the Dragon Boat Festival Qujiang banquet, Princess Fuhui returned in the same car with a young official.

    Pei Fei explained: "What happened on the Dragon Boat Festival was not what everyone said..." He just laughed half-heartedly, and then sighed faintly. This is much like what An Ran said just now. It seems that everyone There is trouble.

    Pei Fei said earnestly: "If you see it right, don't miss it. If you can see the goodness of Lady Shen, others will naturally see it too. If someone else takes the lead, they obviously have feelings for each other, but they have to miss it..." Pei Feiyouyou sighed.

    Lin Yan put the chess away, sat back on the couch, and put his hands on his lap. His right index finger and middle finger reached into his left sleeve to touch the knots on the longevity rope—this is a newly acquired habit.

    Pei Fei knew his temperament and thought he would not answer, but after a while, he heard him say: "It's better to be sure of her mind."

    Pei Fei: "..."

    Rao is that Pei Fei was suffering from love, and was amused, "You still haven't been sure of other people's hearts? You, Lin Anran, also have times when you worry about gains and losses! In the early years in Hedong, how many girls entrusted you to send Huasheng to you? Later you Foreign officials, and in this capital, you want to come a lot, right? You are the dream of ladies and gentlemen, actually..."

    Pei Fei felt that this little lady Shen was really a remarkable person, and it was enough for An Ran to think about it. Seeing this, she didn't seem to care about An Ran too much...

    Suffering alone is not as good as all suffering, Pei Fei can't wait to laugh out loud at this time, haha, you Lin Anran also have today!

    The two young acquaintances, Lin Yan knew what he was thinking, pursed his lips and glanced at him, thought about it, and smiled himself.

    Although Pei Fei was unruly, his eyes were still there. When Lin Yan went to Shen Ji to eat dim sum in the afternoon, although he was very itchy, he still endured not to follow.

    As soon as Lin Yan entered the door, she saw Lady Shen chatting happily with a young gentleman. Lady Shen squinted and smiled, her expression happy, as if she had made a lot of money, and Pei Fei's reminder suddenly flashed in her mind. .

    Shen Shaoguang just made a lot of money!

    He set up a stall in Er Qujiang several times, and Tanhua Lang helped him as an image ambassador, and he really sold the flower cake a little bit. At that time, some people said that the cakes were better than the cakes made by the famous cake workshops in Dongxi City.

    This person really has the surname Shao, the name Jie, the word Yingxian, and the most famous flower cake shop in Chang'an City, Guixiang Garden. Guixiang Garden has been making flower cakes for more than 100 years. Master Yuanjue mentioned before that there is a cake workshop in Dongshi. The grandfather of Shao Langjun.

    Nowadays, the Shao family has a lot of industries, and they no longer expect flower cakes to support the family, but after all, this is the foundation of the ancestors, and the children of the direct line and the main line must go to the flower cake workshop for a while after they become adults.

    Shao Jie has been staying in the flower cake workshop for a while now. heard two guests say that there are flower cakes by the Qujiang River that are very well made, but they can't be found in normal times. They only have it during festivals. Later, heard that it was a stall set up by a Shenji wine shop in Chongxianfang. Shao Jie is here today. When visiting friends in Chongxianfang, he remembered this Shen Jilai, so he came to visit.

    The small wine shop is not big, but it has a clean spirit inside and out. Shao Jie looked at the paintings and knickknacks on the wall, and felt that it was not surprising that this shop could make good flower cakes.

    When he met the hostess, ate several kinds of flower cakes, and drank a pot of iced sour plum drink, Shao Jie made a decision.

    "Since he is the lord of the Shao family in Guixiang Garden in the East City, how can he like our shop's cake recipes?" Shen Shaoguang asked with a smile.

    Shen Shaoguang once visited the Osmanthus Garden in Dongshi, and ordered several signature flower cakes, all of which were delicious, especially the most famous sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus cake. , is really unique.

    The exquisiteness of the cakes made by oneself is exquisite. It is difficult to say how difficult it is. Especially for connoisseurs, as long as you break it apart and try it a few times, you can always make a difference. In this era of no patents, it is a bit strange that this Lang Jun has to spend a hundred taels of silver to buy the recipe for pea yellow and minced fruit cake.

    "Little lady is too cautious!" Shao Jie laughed, "then tell the little lady the truth, although these two kinds of cakes are good, they are not as good as the little lady's idea of ​​selling cakes. I just heard from the little lady's maid that they are different in terms of solar terms. In season, there are various flower cake gift boxes, the 'Splendid Future' box, the 'Beautiful Moon and Full Moon' box, and the 'Fu Lu Shou Xi' box, all kinds of cakes with appropriate patterns are laid out inside..."

    "Although I wasn't able to see it in person, but after tasting the pastries just now and seeing the patterns on it, I can see what this gift box looks like. It's a pity that X is the most annoying to go out to join in the fun during the New Year's and festivals, otherwise he wouldn't have to make it out of thin air here. I thought about it. So, I wanted to learn from him, but I was embarrassed by taking the little lady's idea in vain..." Shao Jie laughed, revealing two small tiger teeth.

    Looking at this cute young man with a cute smile and listening to such frank words, Shen Shaoguang almost had the illusion of returning to the modern age. It is really a model of people in this dynasty who are too accustomed to being reserved, not to mention Lin Shaoyin's model of sullenness. Even ordinary people rarely see this kind of "straightforward expression of one's heart".

    Again, this kind of "creativity" is not as good as cake recipes, and everyone can use it at will. This Shao Lang is willing to exchange a hundred taels of silver, whether it is a century-old shop that cherishes feathers, young people's conscience is not yet clear. No matter what, it expresses respect and makes people like it - especially compared to the Yunlai restaurant in the same square, there is also a differentiated competition relationship, this one's attitude is too good-looking!

    Shen Shaoguang is also a happy person: "If that's the case, then I would like to thank Langjun for looking at it."

    Shen Shaoguang spread out the paper and wrote the recipes for the two kinds of cakes, and asked A Yuan to find the remaining boxes, and saved two boxes of the existing cakes in the store, "Our store sells cakes on weekdays. Not many, only a few common ones, don't dislike it, Lord Lang."

    Shao Jie said with a smile: "Happy! The little lady is not allowed to be a man!"

    After taking the writing paper handed over by the lady Shen, and looking at the thin and strong words on it, Shao Jie groaned like a toothache: "I really don't let the man, the little lady can write so well... To be able to write like this, how proud you should be among your brothers."

    Shao Jie blew himself up and said, "To be honest with the little lady, several generations of people in my family have all been skillful, but they did it in other places, not in reading and writing..." After he said that, he laughed.

    Shen Shaoguang really likes this young man. Without enough self-confidence, it would be difficult to have such a happy self-mockery.

    Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "I don't hide from my husband, my son is also skillful, but he didn't happen to be on the red needle. The spring banners hanging in Yuanzheng's yard are fortunately hung high, otherwise it would be embarrassing..."

    Shao Jie laughed.

    Shen Shaoguang also laughed.

    Yu San, who went to the backyard to get the bacon: "..."

    Lin Yan, who had just entered the door: "..."

    When Shao Jie saw Lin Yan, he was taken aback and quickly stood up and bowed: "Meet Lin Shaoyin."

    As a large shop in the East and West Market next to the Imperial City, there are always times when dealing with the yamen. Shao Jie had met this Jingzhao Shaoyin twice, but he had never spoken.

    Lin Yan looked at him and smiled lightly: "Who is Langjun?"

    Shao Jie said his identity, Lin Yan nodded, and went to the seat under the window where he used to sit.

    Shen Shaoguang used to serve the drink, asked him what to eat, and had a daily routine conversation.

    Afraid of disturbing the distinguished guest's meal, and the servant also took the hundred taels of silver and handed over the silver, Shao Jie and Shen Shaoguang exchanged a few words, then came over to say goodbye to Lin Shaoyin, and left the restaurant door.

    Lin Shaoyin was quite serious when he first entered the restaurant. Hey, the needle in the bottom of the man's heart, the face of Shaoyin in June, when will this Lin Shaoyin be like the Shao Langjun who just left? It is impossible to think about it, after all, the nature is difficult to change.

    Because he packed all the decent flower cakes to Shao Langjun, Shen Shaoguang instructed Yu San to make a few quick dishes for Lin Yan: fried quail, celery lily, shrimp and courgette, salted egg yolk baked tofu, and a bowl of it. Mung bean rice porridge prepared for dinner, two small scallion oil rolls.

    The amount is not large, the small plate, which is red, white, green, and yellow, is refreshing and beautiful; the small porridge bowl does not dare to put too much sugar in it, this one has a light taste and does not like sweetness. The food is salty again.

    Scooping a spoonful of porridge into his mouth, the rice and beans were boiled just right, with a hint of sweetness, but it did not take away the aroma of the porridge itself. Lin Yan's eyes were slightly curved.

    Shen Shaoguang had good eyes in this life, and when he saw the strands on his wrist when he took the paper, his heart couldn't help but sneer.

    Looking at Lin Shaoyin Junyi's face, broad shoulders and slender waist, and those thin, white and slender hands, Shen Shaoguang suddenly thought of another plump beauty - Sister Bao, who is shy and red musk string, and naturally BaoyuIt's a pity not to touch it.

    Shen Shaoguang was also very sorry, and remembered the hug that day, it felt really good, the clothes were thin, and the undressing - think there is meat...

    Lin Yan raised his eyes and met Shen Shaoguang's burning gaze, Shen Shaoguang squinted and smiled, Lin Yan retracted his eyes, but the corners of his mouth turned up.
