The food supervisor still had the candle light on.
Wu Diaoji didn't know what was going on. Anyway, it was his first time here. If His Highness hadn't had a whim this year and wanted to personally prepare cakes for the Queen, he would never have set foot here in his life.
"Okay, just wait outside and I'll come out when I'm done."
"Yes!" Wu Diao Si turned around and walked outside.
Shang Shijian is very safe, and he is not worried about the assassination of the prince.
Li Zhao stepped in and found a slender figure facing him.
Perhaps when he noticed someone coming in, the figure turned his head subconsciously and happened to meet Li Zhao face to face.
Li Zhao was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was such a beautiful girl in Shangshi Prison, so he nodded slightly.
Zhao Jingru was startled. She found that this man was a bit strange. He didn't seem to be from Shang Food Supervisor.
She didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
Li Zhao was wearing a moon-white robe and was a bit thin. He rolled up his sleeves and walked to the workbench next door.
Zhao Jingru was also making pastries and saw Li Zhao starting to mix flour.
She felt that this person did not seem to be someone who knew this craft.
But when she saw that Li Zhao was extremely serious and sophisticated, a hint of surprise finally appeared in her eyes.
Li Zhao didn't notice Zhao Jingru's gaze, his expression was focused.
What Zhao Jingru didn't expect was that Li Zhao's thinking was exactly the same as hers, but slightly different.
She showed curiosity and stared at Li Zhao's technique.
Li Zhao has a lot of ideas in his mind. During the epidemic, he would follow the online teaching videos at home when he had nothing to do. He was really good at things like bread and pastries.
Now that this body has been reborn, before leaving Kyoto, I have to pay homage to the mother of this body as a token of my gratitude.
Li Zhao has very fast hands and he also uses white sugar for fermentation.
"Did you create this yourself?" Zhao Jingru couldn't help but speak, her voice was very pleasant.
"Ah?" Li Zhao didn't expect this great beauty to strike up a conversation with him, so he replied: "Yes!"
"Can I... take a look?"
"Can!"
Li Zhao had no intention of hiding anything.
Soon, he was using chopsticks, spoons and other tools to shape each piece of dough into various strange shapes.
Some are cute, some are very cute, and some just look chubby.
Zhao Jingru's eyes became brighter and brighter. It turns out that pastries can have so many shapes?
With surprise in her eyes, she looked at Li Zhao's serious profile and felt a little incredible.
"Do you want to learn?" Li Zhao looked up and smiled brightly.
Zhao Jingru's pretty face blushed slightly and hesitantly said: "Is it okay?"
"Okay!" Li Zhao said with a smile: "Anyway, let's hang out together when we have nothing to do?"
"good!"
Zhao Jingru agreed, and the two officially started talking.
After communicating, it was discovered that both parties had their own unique insights into pastries.
"Are you alone here?"
"Ah, yes, they all went out to help." Zhao Jingru responded: "What about you?"
"Me?" Li Zhao shrugged and said, "I don't like many people, and I don't like being liked by others. I'm used to being alone."
"How to do this?" Zhao Jingru asked, avoiding the topic.
Li Zhao came over and could smell a faint floral fragrance from Zhao Jingru's body, and said: "You can press them together first. This is very simple. Look, use two chopsticks to pinch them like this, and the shape will come out. Already?"
"It's true." Zhao Jingru felt amazing and looked at Li Zhao, how did this guy come up with this idea?
"There are more interesting things..." Li Zhao said boastfully, "Sesame seeds can also be used."
The two chatted very enthusiastically and took the initiative to discuss things in these fields.
"What...do you do so much?"
"I..." Li Zhao said with a somewhat sad expression: "Give it to a relative."
Zhao Jingru listened quietly, and she felt that this person had a story.
"This person is very kind to me. No matter how much trouble I cause, she will never blame me and even protect me..."
"It's a pity that she left so early. I miss her so much."
Li Zhao told the story of the original owner: “She liked pastries very much and would make them on a daily basis, so I thought... could I also use these to commemorate her and tell her that I would also make these things... She should be happy too, right?"
The kitchen was quiet except for Li Zhao's voice.
Zhao Jingru watched quietly, thinking of her aunt.
Her aunt also loved her very much. Her mother died after giving birth to their three siblings.
They were raised by their aunt, who loved them very much, but... her aunt also went there when she was young.
She also misses her mother and aunt very much. She misses her aunt more in her memory because her aunt has taken care of them for the longest time.
But she didn't expect that the person in front of her had relatives who also liked making pastries, just like her aunt.
Perhaps because of this heart-to-heart talk, the two of them obviously felt that the conversation was not as stiff as before.
The sky dawned unconsciously.
Both Li Zhao and Zhao Jingru prepared the sacrifices they needed to prepare.
Li Zhao stretched. He didn't expect that he could stay here for so long. If there wasn't someone to talk to, it would be really boring.
"Okay, my things are ready, what about yours?"
"Ah?" Zhao Jingru shook her head, and Bu Yao also shook her head and said, "I have to wait for a while."
"Okay, then I'll leave first." Li Zhao washed his hands and packed everything in boxes: "Hey, do you still want to read this?"
"Ah?" Zhao Jingru's pretty face suddenly turned red, she snatched the novel away with her hands and hesitated: "I... I just took a look..."
Seeing her guilty look, Li Zhao laughed loudly: "You can watch it if you like it. What is there to hide?"
"You...really think so?" Zhao Jingru looked at him carefully.
"What's the point of this?" Li Zhao said nonchalantly: "I also read the story novel. If you like to read it, I will give you a copy tomorrow."
"Really?" Zhao Jingru was overjoyed, but when she thought that she had just met him and wanted to give him something, was it too soon?
"It's just a small matter." Li Zhao waved his hand and said, "Let's go now."
Looking at the back of Li Zhao leaving gracefully, Zhao Jingru tilted her head, holding the storybook in both hands and suddenly smiled.
All ladies are not allowed to read this kind of small book, especially if it is written about romance, it is even disliked by the mainstream.
Even people from the Imperial College and the Hongwen Museum think this kind of stuff is rubbish, and they dare not exist and are not worthy of publishing books.
Zhao Jingru didn't expect that there were men who liked to watch this kind of thing.
Thinking of the pleasant conversation she had just had with Li Zhao, discussing pastry recipes, shapes, and eclectic ideas, Zhao Jingru sighed again. What a pity, the person she was going to marry was a useless prince who only knew how to play with women!
