Some time ago, the courtyard was filled with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus. Every morning I got up and opened the window and smelled the scent. I really felt better all day. The son didn’t know where he heard it, saying, "Mummy, let’s make sweet-scented osmanthus cake", "Osmanthus cake?", "Yes, it’s a cake made of sweet-scented osmanthus" Okay, son, you know a lot. , Mother listen to you, let’s do it, then we must first use osmanthus. Where does osmanthus come from? I pick it in the community. I feel a little embarrassed during the day. Although it’s just outside my window, no one usually says to pick some. Let’s go secretly at night. My husband said if you’re going to bring bad kids. I admit that I’m not good at doing this, but to make sweet-scented osmanthus cake
