Chapter 168 Mid-Autumn Festival Chapter
Zhao Houzhi and Xiao Ran left after taking a break in the afternoon.
Chu Yan did not leave because he was going to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival here tomorrow.
In this era, Qian Duoduo is still very happy to have Mid-Autumn Festival.
All the time fragments and knowledge structures in the universe are basically the same.
You think the world you live in is real.
In fact, there are many small worlds in different dimensions and spaces where stories similar to yours are happening.
Although Qian Duoduo knows his identity, he doesn't remember the human relationships in each world very clearly.
But the knowledge I learned has always been with me.
Therefore, only your own abilities will always stay with you, and the knowledge in your head will never leave you, there is no doubt about that.
Therefore, the true meaning of life is to constantly learn and enrich yourself.
Chu Yan looked at Qian Duoduo standing in the attic on the second floor. The moonlight shone on her face, making her look even gentler.
She looked up at the moon slightly, her eyes full of longing.
Is she thinking about her hometown? Is it her hometown or her old friends?
At this time, Qian Duoduo was indeed missing his old friends during the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
I'm wondering what the dog is doing now and when he will come back.
Chu Yan did not disturb her, but just stood there with her.
Until she went back to her room, Chu Yan turned around and left.
When Chu Yan returned to his room, there were two men in black kneeling and waiting inside. They were the secret guards who had "assassinated" him during the day.
"Get up." Chu Yan said nonchalantly after seeing them.
"Are there any new discoveries?"
Chu Yan had previously asked An Ba to search, in addition to the ones in the open, to see if there were any more in the dark.
But Anba found nothing.
Taking advantage of the busy day, Chu Yan sent two more people to search to avoid missing anyone.
The two secret guards looked at each other, and one of them replied:
"My Lord, the situation is basically the same as what An Ba said. There are just more cellars, but nothing else is unusual.
The people we sent in said everything was normal. No one asked them anything.
Recently, Mr. Qian has been busy preparing for the opening of the business.
Except for a few housekeepers of the villa, there were no strangers. "After the two of them finished speaking, they knelt down and bowed their heads.
The master only gave me this one task, and I didn't complete it well, so I can only wait for punishment.
Chu Yan rubbed the ring on his right index finger with his left hand without saying anything.
No one knows what he is thinking.
Finally, I heard a sound.
"Go back."
"Yes." The two men in black disappeared in an instant.
----
The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, a festival of family reunion. During this festival, families will gather together to taste moon cakes, admire the moon, give gifts, etc., to express their thoughts and blessings to each other.
Although Qian Duoduo did not feel much care from her relatives, nor did she receive any gifts from them, she would never miss the mooncakes every year.
In addition to tasting mooncakes, there is another important custom during the Mid-Autumn Festival - appreciating the moon.
On this day, the moon was exceptionally bright, round and big, hanging in the sky like a jade plate.
People will gather together to taste moon cakes, fruits and other delicacies under the moonlight, admire the beautiful moon, and feel the warmth and romance of the moonlight.
Although many people stay here to celebrate the festival during the day, everyone will return to their homes to reunite with their families around noon.
At night, she was the only one left admiring the moon, and no one knew where the dog had gone.
Well, after getting himself in a good mood, Qian Duoduo decided to make some mooncakes this year for everyone to take back.
There are many types of mooncakes, each with a unique taste and flavor, representing different regional cultures and historical heritages.
Cantonese mooncakes are one of the traditional delicacies of Guangdong Province. They are famous for their thin skin, large fillings, soft texture, and moderate sweetness and saltiness.
Suzhou-style mooncakes are one of Jiangsu Province's traditional delicacies. They are popular for their crispy crust, rich fillings, and sweet but not greasy taste.
Beijing-style mooncakes are one of the capital's traditional delicacies, known for their large size, thick crust and crispy texture.
Yunnan-style mooncakes are one of Yunnan Province's traditional delicacies. They are popular for their rich fillings, crispy texture, and non-greasy sweetness.
Each kind of mooncake has its own unique charm, allowing people to experience the culture and history of different regions while tasting the mooncakes.
Based on these types of mooncakes, Qian Duoduo also makes another kind - snow skin mooncake.
The appearance of the snow skin mooncake is very exquisite, with crystal clear skin, like a piece of jade, and it is engraved with exquisite patterns and designs.
When you take a bite, the first thing you feel is the coolness and tenderness of the mooncake skin.
Then the sweet filling melts in your mouth.
Every bite is filled with rich emotion.
Making snow skin mooncakes is a very challenging and fun thing.
It requires patience, skills and attention to detail, but all the hard work becomes worth it when you finally taste your homemade snowskin mooncakes.
In the process of making snow skin mooncakes, every step needs to be completed carefully, and every detail determines the final success or failure.
The making of snow skin mooncakes is not only a delicacy, but also an expression of emotion.
Therefore, Qian Duoduo pays more attention to snow skin mooncakes than other traditional mooncakes.
For breakfast, Qian Duoduo prepared nearly twenty kinds of meals to satisfy the appetites of these princes and nobles.
Afterwards, she arranged for them to go to the theater and invited a famous theater troupe from the capital, which cost her a lot of money.
At noon, Qian Duoduo prepared four major dishes based on the four flavors of "sweet, sour, bitter and spicy", which also made them unable to stop eating.
The eighth prince and his sister, in particular, did not want to leave at all and said they wanted to stay here to enjoy the moon at night.
But when he asked Chu Yan, Chu Yan did not say whether he agreed or disagreed.
But he acted as if he didn't hear anything and ignored the Eighth Prince.
The eighth prince reacted very quickly and scolded his sister, saying that she was such a grown-up and still acting foolishly, that she should know her limits and be sensible, and that it was not right for her to go out during such a festival, etc.
Qian Duoduo found it a little funny when listening in the back. What a perceptive person.
Chu Yan didn't say a word during the whole process, but no one dared to disobey him.
As a result, after lunch, the Eighth Prince and his sister dawdled, visiting the greenhouse, the library, and going fishing, and they did not leave until very late.
During the afternoon, Qian Duoduo specially made several very small snow skin mooncakes as pastries for everyone to taste in advance.
When Qian Duoduo saw Bai Ningning and her friends couldn't put down the snowy mooncakes, he knew that he had done a good job and felt infinite satisfaction.
So when they left, Qian Duoduo gave each of them an extra snow skin mooncake as a Mid-Autumn Festival gift, which really made the little girls very happy.
But in Chu Yan's eyes, Qian Duoduo was just trying to win people's hearts by changing their gender.
Chu Yan knew that he shouldn't think about it any more. Various events showed that there was no direct evidence to prove that Qian Duoduo was involved in the assassination of him.
Although some of the time points don’t match, maybe Qian Duoduo has his own secrets or things to do.
But whenever Qian Duoduo was nice to them, he couldn't help but think that Qian Duoduo was deliberately trying to please them.
In fact, Chu Yan’s idea was not wrong, but the direction was wrong.
Qian Duoduo was deliberately trying to please them because, in this Beijing city where she had no relatives and no background, if she wanted to do business well, she had to rely on a big tree. Otherwise, she would suffer a lot and might not succeed.
Chu Yan has always been focusing on assassinating him.
So even if the idea is correct, but the direction is wrong, it will go against the trend.
But if Qian Duoduo knew Chu Yan's thoughts, he would definitely cry out loudly that he was wronged.
She obviously wanted everyone's money, not his life.
Just as everyone was leaving one after another, Chu Yan did not leave.
Lu Shaoxuan and Bai Ningchuan knew what was going on, and left without asking any further questions.
The eighth prince wanted to say more words of advice, but he did not say them, and left with his sister.
"Aren't you going back?" Qian Duoduo asked carefully. On this day of reunion, as a prince, shouldn't he go back and have dinner with the old emperor?
"Why, such a big villa can't accommodate me?"
"Of course not. Since you're not leaving, why don't we have a drink?" Qian Duoduo said a little excitedly. She was very confident in her alcohol tolerance.
"please."
