Chapter 26 (2): Sugar Rabbits
Tang Qiaoqiao's phone kept ringing. Brother Qian was very shocked and kept asking whether the relationship between Tang Qiaoqiao and the Tang family was true.
Tang Qiaoqiao thought that there was no need to hide from her agent at this time, so she told the truth.
Brother Qian regretted it to death. He felt that he held a golden nest in his hand but treated her as a broken stone. If he had known that she had such a good background and story, and if they had hyped it, Tang Qiaoqiao might have become popular earlier.
However, Tang Qiaoqiao refused to let Brother Qian continue to use this as a marketing promotion point and asked him not to respond to any media interviews.
Because too much is too late, frequent occurrences of the same news will arouse hatred among netizens.
The Tang family also made dozens of death-threatening calls, but she didn't answer any of them. Let them jump around for a while.
But one person's phone call had to be answered.
Aunt Wang: "It's my lady's video call."
At that time, Tang Qiaoqiao and Shen Yue were having a snack—ice jelly, which she prepared and refrigerated in the morning. It was covered with chopped walnuts and hawthorn, chopped raisins, goji berries, as well as diced watermelon, and cantaloupe. Finally, it was topped with a circle of brown sugar sauce. The color is really beautiful.
At noon in the summer, eating a bowl of ice-cold, tender, and sweet ice jelly dessert can not only produce body fluids and relieve heat but also cool down the body, just to reduce the hot air caused by Tang Rou's troubles.
When Tang Qiaoqiao learned that Shen Yue's mother had called, she swallowed a mouthful of ice jelly.
Shen Yue originally wanted to wait until they had finished eating, but Aunt Wang had already connected the phone and projected it on the TV in the living room.
So an old lady with a bright smile appeared on the big screen and met face-to-face with two people holding ice jelly.
Madam Shen gave birth to Shen Yue when she was 42 years old. She is much older now, but she still looks very tough. Her hair is dyed jet black, and she wears a long colorful skirt. She looks very reluctant to be an old lady.
Madam Shen: "You only had lunch. I forgot that I am in Australia, and there is a two-hour time difference with you."
Shen Yue calmly replied, "It's not lunch."
"What did you eat? Show me. Let me have a look." Old lady Shen looked very happy.
Shen Yue was inconvenient to move, so Tang Qiaoqiao held the bowl to the screen and said with a sweet smile, "It's ice jelly."
"It's Sichuan snack, ice jelly!" Madam Shen complained with her eyes open wide. "I like to eat ice jelly, but I just can't eat authentic snacks when I am in foreign countries. I have to eat steaks every day."
The old lady Shen was too greedy. Her eyes seemed to jump out of the screen to try their food.
Shen Yue has long been accustomed to his mother's nerve-jumping appearance. He even deliberately gulped his ice jelly to show off.
Madam Shen said bitterly, "Unfilial son, turn over if you want to eat. Who wants to see you anyway? I want to see my daughter-in-law." Tang Qiaoqiao rubbed her nose a little embarrassedly. According to Madam Shen's age, she can call her Grandma, but it's worse than that.
She couldn't call her mother.
Since the original owner had never spoken to her, she followed the original owner and called, "Hello, madam."
"Really good." The old lady Shen didn't mind these vain names and looked at her lovingly.
"You must have made these things. I have heard that Aunt Wang said that you have been taking care of Shen Yue's diet these days."
"It's nothing. When you come back, I can make them for you."
"You said it, so it's settled. I must taste your craftsmanship when I return to China in a while."
Old lady Shen sighed lightly, "I know the most about the meat that fell from my own body. Since he was a child, he has been a bull-tempered person. If it's something that doesn't match his appetite, he won't take a bite if he is killed. Now I think he's a bit fatter than a while ago, and it's all your credit."
Shen Yue was exposed by his mother and frowned. "Mom, what nonsense?"
Madam Shen voice was very loud. "What? You are my son. Can't I say it?" He looked at Tang Qiaoqiao a little uncomfortably but saw that the corners of Tang Qiaoqiao's mouth were raised. Her smile was as bright as a rose.
Tang Qiaoqiao looked at the mother and son bickering across the screen and couldn't help but laugh. It's really rare to see such a helpless expression on Shen Yue's face.
Madam Shen's eyes rolled back and forth on Shen Yue and Tang Qiaoqiao, with an ambiguous smile on her face. This daughter-in-law is really good for her son.
The little girl looks so swift, she smiles sweetly, and she becomes cuter as she looks at her.
Such a lovely girl has such a pitiful life experience. She is obviously a wealthy daughter, but she has been ruthlessly tossed by fate for so many years.
That's right, Madam Shen called because of those things on Weibo. When she heard the news, she was shocked for a while. She was even more shocked that there are still such parents in the world.
She said solemnly, "I already knew about that."
Tang Qiaoqiao guessed the purpose of Madam Shen's call and asked, "Madam doesn't blame me?"
"How can I blame you? It's not your fault for concealing your identity. I blame your parents for being too cruel." After all, the Tang couple made up their minds to marry her off from the beginning.
Madam Shen is so sensible. Tang Qiaoqiao has a more favorable impression of her.
She continued, "Don't worry about your parents making trouble for you. If someone bullies you, just tell me, and I will fight back for you.
Whether you are a real daughter of the Tang family or a fake daughter, whether you grew up in the country or if you come from a prestigious school, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is that you, husband and wife, can be kind and loving each other. It is best if I could hug my grandson sooner."
When Tang Qiaoqiao heard this, she accidentally choked on the ice jelly and suddenly coughed violently. After that, I couldn't breathe for a moment.
"So stupid, you can choke even when you eat ice jelly," Shen Yue immediately picked up a water glass beside him and handed it to her, "Drink water."
Tang Qiaoqiao held her chest and took a sip of water before slowly get herself together. At this time, she found that she was holding Shen Yue's water glass in her hand.
Shen Yue loves cleanliness and never shared eating utensils with others. At this moment, for her, he even gave her his own water cup. Seeing the nervous expression on his face, Tang Qiaoqiao felt warm.
Madam Shen looked at the two of them on the other end of the screen, showing an expression "I understand."
She feels that her hope will be realized soon.
After talking on the video call with Madam Shen, Tang Qiaoqiao massaged Shen Yue again and then acupuncture. This time her technique became more proficient, and Shen Yue no longer resisted her.
"Acupuncture and moxibustion a few more times, then try to do some rehabilitation exercises. Next, we should get a doctor to have a comprehensive examination."
Shen Yue didn't listen carefully, just watched her soft little hands on his legs. He suddenly remembered the words "hold a grandson" that his mother said just now.
He felt uncomfortable inexplicably and turned his face away from looking at her. But it made the touch of her hand touching his skin became clearer, and his whole body seemed to be electrocuted.
Tang Qiaoqiao glanced at him strangely. "Why is your face red?"
Shen Yue's complexion was originally white, so the reddish hue became more conspicuous.
Shen Yue pressed his fist against his mouth and coughed slightly, "You pressed too hard. Just press it again."
"Yes~" Tang Qiaoqiao was not angry and deliberately stretched her tone, "Master Shen."
The passing Aunt Wang couldn't help but laugh. After laughing, she thought that the relationship between husband and wife is getting better and better.
The two people were sitting by the floor-to-ceiling windows, and some sunlight shone on them through the glass. The image of the handsome man and woman was as beautiful as a painting.
The woman massaged his legs intently, and the man's eyes softened even though she could not see it.
Aunt Wang was sure that the master didn't even know that his eyes had changed when he looked at his wife.
The turmoil caused by the sneak shots of Shen Liang and Tang Rou lasted for most of the day. However, the Tangda Group and the Shen Group both began to control public opinion, and the situation did not develop further. Netizens could only speculate.
But there were also unexpected gains. Tang Qiaoqiao's Weibo fans finally exceeded one million.
It was the first million fans in her life. So many fans gave her a steady stream of spiritual power and support. Tang Qiaoqiao is very grateful, and she wants to make a special gift for her lovely fans. Brother Qian also suggested that she organized a lottery for the fans.
Tang Qiaoqiao decided to make two snacks personally and asked fans to forward her post in order to enter the lottery.
As soon as Tang Qiaoqiao opened her Weibo live broadcast, more than 100,000 fans immediately flooded in. Among them were both her fans and people who came to watch the excitement. After all, it was the first public appearance among the parties involved in the storm.
【Qiao Bao is going to live broadcast cooking food again. What are you going to cook today? I'm looking forward to it】
【Qiao Bao has a million followers. Asking for welfare】
【Tang Qiaoqiao, what is the matter with Tang Rou and Shen Liang? Please explain clearly】
【She posted an unintelligible Weibo, pitting others miserably then turning her head like nothing happen】
【The previous few, get out of Qiao Bao's live broadcast room, okay? If you don't understand Weibo, it's because you don't have a brain. She has to explain fart】
Tang Qiaoqiao skipped some discordant comments in the live broadcast room and said with a smile, "Today, my fans broke one million. To thank my lovely sugar rabbits, I will make two snacks for you today."
Sugar Rabbit is the name of her fan group. "Sugar" is a homonym for her surname, and the word "Qiaoqiao" is a homonym for "Jojo" from "Jojo Rabbit." Fans also say that she is as cute as a rabbit.
[T/N: MC's surname is 唐 (Tang), which means offense. But there is another Tang (糖) which means sugar.]
Tang Qiaoqiao immediately adopted such a beautiful name.
The fans didn't say that the rabbit is still a cute but powerful animal, just like Tang Qiaoqiao.
But it is better not to tell her, or she will be aggrieved again.
"I will let you choose the gift. Do you like salty or sweet snacks?"
When the fans heard that Tang Qiaoqiao is going to send some snacks she made herself, the barrage went crazy.
【I want sweet. Sweet snacks are the right way】
【I want to eat salty. Too sweet is a heresy】
【Qiao Bao, I eat everything. I won't choose】
It was difficult to pick, so Tang Qiaoqiao thought for a while and decided to make two different flavors, one sweet and the other salty.
The sweet snack is the lotus crisp which could be use as desserts.
People nowadays mostly use food coloring directly for convenience, but it was not too troublesome for Tang Qiaoqiao. She used sweet radish and spinach from her vegetable garden to squeeze out two colors of pink and green.
The vegetable juice is added to the dough separately with lard and water, which will be used to form a dough, which will make it watery and has oily skin.
The pink dough is cute, and the green dough is fresh. She put it aside and let it rise for a while.
Puff pastry dough is indispensable for this snack, and it is best when it's made with white lard. She added the lard to the flour, kneaded it thoroughly, so there was no dry place, and divided it into small pieces.
After all the dough was raised, she divided it into even-sized and rolled it.

Then she wrapped the puff pastry dough into the colorful dough, flatten it, folds it several times, and rolled it flat, and then you can add the stuffing.
This time, Tang Qiaoqiao chose coconut paste and egg yolk filling. After the butter is softened, she added egg yolk, sugar, coconut, and milk. Then mix well and knead it into small yellow balls.
Then she wrapped the small yellow ball in the puff pastry and kneaded it into a round ball.
Next, she used a knife to mark the "petals" on the top of the round ball, and finally, it is the most critical step, deep frying.
Tang Qiaoqiao reached out to test the temperature of the oil, then put the round balls in the oil pan to fry. The fire should not be too high. During the frying process, the round balls will slowly bloom into the shape of a lotus. Because the puff pastry has been folded many times, the petals are layered, thin, and crisp.
When the lotus blooms completely, it can be taken out from the fryer.
In order to let the fans see the process of lotus cake blooming more clearly, Tang Qiaoqiao lifted her mobile phone and showed them the fryer.
【Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!】
【Too beautiful. Like real lotus flowers. I want to eat it】
As the salty snack, Tang Qiaoqiao chose to make curry puffs.
Curry puffs are using the same dough as lotus crisps. They also need to use puff pastry, except that the stuffing is beef cooked with curry and onion.
Wrap the cooked stuffing into the puff pastry like a dumpling, forming a twist-shaped pattern along the edge.
Curry puffs are not fried but baked.
In order to make the finished product more beautiful, before putting it in the oven, Tang Qiaoqiao coated each curry puff with a layer of egg yolk so that the baked dumplings were more golden and crispy.
【Oh oh oh, this curry puff looks more tempting. I love salty snacks. I love the curry beef. Take me out, my goddess】
【I can smell the scent. There is something wrong. Where is the pastry?】
【This girl is willing to be a vegetarian for a month. God, just let me win】
【Ah ah ah, Qiao Bao, you must draw me】
【I want lotus crisps the most. It looks so good】
【How many delicious recipes does Qiaoqiao still have? She could make this snack, her skill is so strong】
Tang Qiaoqiao wiped her hands after she finished and smiled at the camera, "Today's portion is limited. Only fifty people will be selected. Each person has a lotus crisp and a curry puff, plus my autographed photo. The lottery will be drawn in half an hour. Everyone, please pay attention to your private messages. Please provide the address immediately when you are drawn, because these need to be sent out immediately. This snack has to be eaten on the same day."
So the fans all flocked to Tang Qiaoqiao's latest post and reposted it on Weibo. The comments and likes are as long as dragons. Just for the food, all the tricks of praying for blessings were used. Soon this Weibo post broke through ten thousand reposts.
What's more unexpected is that Mao Li also online under her official Weibo, and said very coldly, "Pick me."
Fans fell down in circles.
Then, Wei Yiqi and Hu Miao were not to be outdone and rushed to participate. As celebrities, their comments have weight. Their repostings quickly became popular comments.
Fans replied one after another.

【???】
【All of you have all eaten Qiaoqiao's dishes. Why do you want to grab a snack with us?】
【I'm going to compete with stars like Mao Li, Hu Miao, and Wei Yiqi in this draw. I'll see you guys later】
【Really? More people are forwarding it? This chance is like buying a lottery ticket】
Shen Yue has also joined Tang Qiaoqiao's lottery. Although she got him a share of lotus crisps and curry puffs, Shen Yue felt very upset at the thought of the two big men, Wei Yiqi and Hu Miao, joined the lottery.
So he also reposted it. It didn't matter if he missed it. He just tried to lower the winning chance of those two men.
