d.a.m.n!

They had met their match!

The pastry was authentic!

Jin Ji did not sell yellow pea cakes, but they sold osmanthus cakes. Compared to their osmanthus cakes, Jin Ji’s osmanthus cakes were simply like younger brothers!

!!

“Miss Su…” Manager Sun turned back with a complicated expression.

It wasn’t that he didn’t have confidence in Su Xiaoxiao. He had eaten Su Xiaoxiao’s pastries before. The taste was impeccable.

However, those few people were not bad either. In addition, they made famous food in the capital, so they had a reputation.

Su Ji’s pastries were delicious, but unfortunately, they were not famous. They were not as well-known as the famous ones in the capital.

“Tsk, what a miscalculation,” Manager Sun sighed.

Soon, Su Xiaoxiao’s snacks were out of the pot.

Manager Sun looked at the several yellow and orange… snacks on the plate and pointed at them: “No, these are… eggs? Aren’t these… sugar paintings?”

Pastries like these could be seen everywhere on the streets. They were made with syrup bit by bit and looked exquisite. They also tasted saccharine sweet

As for Su Xiaoxiao’s, they were not even delicate. They were just in the shape of an eggsh.e.l.l.

“Well… ”

Manager Sun was speechless.

“Take them out.” Su Xiaoxiao said.

“Ah.” Manager Sun’s mouth opened and closed several times. He braced himself and took the “eggsh.e.l.ls” out.

She was the creditor. She was the boss!

Seeing Manager Sun bring out the eggs, Second Madam burst out laughing. “Third Sister-in-law, this is the chef you hired. What did she make? They’re not even as good as my cooking!”

These were just eggs made with sugar. Could a seven or eight-year-old child make them?

Third Madam also frowned slightly.

Manager Sun said, “Don’t ask me, the boss made it!”

The Second Mistress was almost out of breath from laughing. She covered her face with a handkerchief and said, “Then bring the snacks over for Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law to try. Let’s see whose they like more!”

The servants carried the three snacks to the courtyard of the eldest branch.

First Master and First Madam had just woken up and were sitting down to eat some millet porridge.

There were two meals of fish and meat in the day, so they did not eat much in the morning.

The snacks were placed on the table for the two of them.

This was Eldest Master’s fault. Matters of the residence were First Madam’s territory, and he shouldn’t have meddled. It was his second brother who came to look for him and talked for half a day; he couldn’t refuse and agreed.

“Madam, you make the decision.” His lordship said.

The First Madam sighed. “You promised Second Brother. If I don’t agree, wouldn’t that embarra.s.s you in front of your brothers?”

Eldest Master was very pleased. He smiled and said, “Then should we still use the chef Second Brother called over?”

“It looks like Second Brother’s chef is reliable.” First Madam’s gaze swept across the three snacks and landed on a few “eggs” made of sugar. She frowned.

“What kind of chef did Third Sister-in-law hire?”

… .

The servants quickly came over from the courtyard of the eldest branch.

Second Madam and Third Madam asked in unison, “What did Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law say?”

The servant lowered his head and reported, “Reporting to the two Madams, First Master and First Madam said to use the pastry chef that Third Madam invited.”

“Impossible!” The Second Mistress raised her voice. “You must have said the wrong thing! They made a candy!”

That was right, Su Xiaoxiao did make a piece of candy. It was just in the shape of an eggsh.e.l.l, but it was essentially candy.

What was so special about it?

The three chefs saw that there were two left on Su Xiaoxiao’s stove; Su Ergou had eaten one.

They walked over with sullen faces. One of them broke off a small piece of sugar with his bare hands.

“Just the smell of syrup. Nothing special…”

Wait.

The head chef suddenly paused and tasted it carefully with the tip of his tongue. As if he realized something, he picked up a small spoon at the side and broke the sugar egg.

An unbelievable scene happened.

There was actually a little tiger made of pastry lying in the sugar egg.

The tiger’s body was tender yellow, and the tiger’s head and tail were outlined with brown syrup.

It was the size of a palm, lifelike, soft, and cute.

The young master of the w.a.n.g family was a tiger based on his zodiac!

Amazing.

This snack was amazing!

Not to mention the taste, just the meaning and appearance alone were a few streets ahead of them!

After tasting it, the three of them could not quibble!

...

The tiger snacks were made with corn flour. The filling was made by Su Xiaoxiao herself. In addition, she mixed a small spoonful of peanut b.u.t.ter that Wei Ting had mashed. The taste was sour and sweet, and there was a strong fragrance of peanuts.

The taste was very layered; the texture was rich, and the main and secondary tastes were distinctive.

The three of them admitted defeat!

Third Madam was proud and elated. After being suppressed by the second branch for many years, she finally gained respect from her eldest brother and sister-in-law.

She smiled brightly. “Second Sister-in-law, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first. Second Sister-in-law, go do your work too. Let’s not disturb Miss Su and Brother Su from making snacks here.”

The Second Mistress stormed off like a defeated rooster!

Third Madam smiled and said, “I’ve invited the right people. Make the snacks well. The price we originally discussed will not change. Also, make more of these snacks. I’ll increase the price by ten taels!”

“There’s no need to raise the price…” Manager Sun was just being polite. How could he really refuse?

Ten taels of silver were nothing to the w.a.n.g family. Third Madam could still afford it.

“It’s settled then.” Third Madam praised Su Xiaoxiao a few more times before turning around to meet her eldest brother and sister-in-law.

Manager Sun laughed as he wiped away his cold sweat. When he worked with Miss Su, he needed a strong heart.

...

Su Xiaoxiao’s pastries were done very smoothly. Su Ergou had improved visibly these days and was much more efficient.

When she went to town to do business, Su Xiaoxiao always felt that she was too busy in the morning because they were in a hurry. The w.a.n.g family’s birthday banquet only started at noon. There was plenty of time, so she was not afraid.

“Ergou, are you tired?”

“I’m not tired!”

“Do you like to cook like what we did today, or do you like to sell snacks?”

“Both!” Su Ergou said.

It was more fun to sell snacks, but he had earned a lot from cooking. He had heard that the lady had added ten taels the moment she opened her mouth!

Su Xiaoxiao, “This child really makes one feel a sense of achievement.”

Second Madam left, but the three chefs she had invited did not. The three of them shamelessly stayed behind to see what snacks Su Xiaoxiao would make.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t hide anything.

This made the three men even more embarra.s.sed.

If it were them, they probably wouldn’t be able to allow someone else to “steal” from them.

“Can I trouble you to knead some flour?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

“Yes, alright!” The three of them hurriedly agreed.

What kind of experience was it to have a professional chef as an a.s.sistant? Su Xiaoxiao could only say that it was very smooth!

Su Xiaoxiao realized that there was a nanny goat in the residence and asked Manager Sun and the servant to bring a jar of goat milk over.

She poured the goat’s milk into the pot and boiled it to remove the fishy smell. She boiled some ginger milk and sent it to the madams.

She had heard Third Madam’s nasal voice just now.

In addition, she made milk-flavored chestnut cakes, dried fruit milk rolls, and sesame sauce milk rolls.

Everything could be healed!
