Chapter 380: Chapter 380: Did You Do All This? Chapter 380: Chapter 380: Did You Do All This? “Egg yolk pastry, candied sweet potatoes, red bean chiffon cake, hand-shredded bread slices are ready, cherry rose jam, dried loquat, dried cherries are all set, white fungus red date loquat soup, crunchy egg rolls, sugar-coated hawthorn, peanut nougat candy…”
Even though there weren’t any hawthorns at this time, she had picked wild strawberries, which could be used to make sugar-coated hawthorn.
“Sang, did…did you make all of this?”
Ya Molian, who had initially planned to help, was utterly stunned by the beautifully arranged and pleasingly presented food on the table.
Only upon hearing his voice did Lin Caisang realize that he was already standing behind her. She turned to look at him.
“Just in time, take these things over there.”
“What were you thinking about just now?”
Since everything was already prepared, why was she still standing there?
Lin Caisang was taken aback by his question.
“I might have been a bit busy, I keep feeling like I’ve forgotten to bring something out, but I can’t remember what.”
Could she say that she felt like she’d forgotten something important somewhere? But she had been standing there for a while and still couldn’t remember what it was.
Indeed, people who don’t cook regularly always forget one thing or another on entering the kitchen.
“Did I ask Zhe Jue and the others to buy something special yesterday?” she asked Ya Molian.
There was no milk on the table, but she shook her head.
If it wasn’t milk, then saltpeter was special enough. After all, nobody would use saltpeter to cook…
“Ah, I remember now.”
Hearing him mention saltpeter, Lin Caisang’s eyes lit up.
She rushed to a corner of the kitchen where a large wooden barrel was kept.
She opened the lid of the barrel, and a burst of cold air immediately hit her. She reached into the barrel and took out five tall bamboo tubes, walked over to Ya Molian, and placed the tubes on the table.
Then she ran to the other side to get seven egg cones and a wooden spoon.
She opened the bamboo tubes and scooped out different-colored ice cream from each tube, put a scoop in each egg cone, and then decorated the top with red and black plums, cherries, and mint leaves, and placed them on a tray.
Then she put the remaining bamboo tubes back into the barrel.
She clapped her hands together, feeling…as if something was still off.
“Did I forget anything else?” she murmured.
“I remember that left night, Jiang Zuo and Jiang Li went to catch wild chickens, and…” they caught fish too.
He reminded her again.
“Oh, right, right, I almost forgot.”
Only then did Lin Caisang remember, the main course had not been brought out yet.
She quickened her pace to the kitchen door and yelled towards the other side, “I need some help over here!”
In the hall, on hearing her voice, Zhe Jue and the others leapt into action, five people swooping in enthusiastically, prepared to showcase their skills and ensure that their master was not left hungry.
But, as soon as they arrived in the kitchen, they saw Lin Caisang pulling large chunks of earth out of the hearth under the stove.
The faces of everyone present turned pale.
“Miss Lin, you’re not going to…” eat mud, are you?
“Bring those two large plates over there, as well as those dried lotus leaves. Zhong You, get me that hammer from over there,” Lin Caisang instructed while pointing at the plates that had been prepared already.
Zhong You nodded and brought the small hammer from the corner to their Master.
