Seventy-Four: Rock Sugar Sweet Dates (2)
Smiling, Lin Xiang nodded: "I bought it, but I have to take a look-"
After that, Lin Xiang squatted down, approached the pile of dates as high as a hill, and carefully picked and picked them-
In Lin Xiang's memory, winter dates do not necessarily have any special symbols, and some dates are carefully selected, but Lin Xiang recalled that when eating dates in modern times, most of the dates, as long as the time is ripe, are bought in the season of producing dates, and most of them are very sweet.
However, purely in the winter to buy dates for dry eating, according to Lin Xiang's recollection, this situation is not much, dates are different from other fruits, the number of times the family buys is not much, and most of the dates are used when they are used for other purposes.
Lin Xiang felt that most of the dates were the sweetest as long as they were darker and redder, boiled or made into soup, or dried.
It doesn't need to be too big, Lin Xiang has experience in picking dates, but when she cooks, if she needs to buy dates, she will also pick some red ones herself-
After taking a general look, Lin Xiang nodded, and said to the girl who bought dates: "It's done, I'll put these up-" Lin Xiang picked and chosen, and then said.
The little girl's hands and feet were neat, and after Lin Xiang finished speaking, the girl quickly hugged Lin Xiang up, and after a while, she wrapped a big bag for Lin Xiang.
Lin Xiang looked up at the girl who had snorted a handful of snot, took the big bag of dates, and touched it on her body-
"Ten copper plates—"
Counting out ten copper plates, Lin Xiang nodded, and then handed the silver money to the girl-
I saw that the other party stretched out his thin fingers and took the money.
Just about to turn around and leave, Lin Xiang was rarely a little contemplative, and after a while, he opened the wrapped dates, reached out and pinched the dates inside and rubbed them twice on his body, and then put them in his mouth, "Squeak-" took a crisp bite and chewed it--After a while, Lin Xiang nodded-
Turning around, Lin Xiang looked up at the girl.
The girl thought that Lin Xiang was leaving, but who knew that the other party turned around again and tasted a date...... Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel anxious: Could it be that the dates are not sweet, and she wants to return the money......
"In addition to selling dates in winter, what else do you sell in other seasons?"
When the girl heard this, she was a little stunned, and her eyes looked at each other a little dullly.
I didn't expect Lin Xiang to say this sentence, and blurted out stupidly: "In summer, there are tapioca flour, noodles made of tapioca flour, and oranges in autumn......"
Lin Xiang was stunned, noodles made of tapioca flour?
What is noodle made from tapioca flour?
After thinking about it, Lin Xiang's face was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that there were two incredible, and said, "Tapioca flour is ...... Vermicelli......?? ”
The girl was a little sluggish, interrupted, thought for a while, and then struggled to recall something, nodded and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, that's what my sister said, but I can't remember it-"
Vermicelli......
Lin Xiang thought about it, and thousands of thoughts suddenly flashed through his mind......
Cassava is a potato similar to sweet potato and white potato, but it is different from sweet potato and white potato, but it is similar to wide flour, which is developed into a finished food after being made by hand or machinery......
Vermicelli...... It was rare in ancient times, and it was mostly pasta, but it was ......
Lin Xiang was a little surprised in his heart, and immediately raised his head and asked, "Your sister?" This stuff was made by your sister...... That's it...... Vermicelli! ”
"Well...... En...... "The girl saw Lin Xiang's sudden shock, and two fears surged up in her heart inexplicably-
Lin Xiang's heart seemed to be jumping out of his throat, and he couldn't speak......
"It's done, I taste very good at these dates, if your family is short of money, or if you are interested in making money, why don't you go to the small street behind the market near the mouth of the alley, there is a restaurant there, and bring tapioca vermicelli to the next summer-" Lin Xiang stopped his trembling heart slightly, looked at the girl and said.
The girl was stunned for a while when she heard this, and it wasn't until Lin Xiang left that she came back to her senses, and she didn't react for a while.
Lin Xiang held a large bag of dates, and while walking, he thought about what happened to Fang Cai-
If that's what she suspected, then?
Lin Xiang was suddenly a little surprised in his heart, and he didn't dare to think about it......
After returning home, Lin Xiang calmed down his mood slightly-
……
A large bag of dates was opened, Lin Xiang took out a small bowl, washed some of the dates, and then put them on the table-
Lin Yan took it, reached out and picked up one of them at random, put it to his mouth and nibbled it-
"What did I tell you?"
Lin Yan said while eating, "What's the matter?" "The sweet juice in my mouth overflowed the tip of my tongue and slid down my throat into my lungs.
"Actually, when I went to buy dates today, I encountered something-" Lin Xiang looked at Lin Yan with a solemn expression.
Lin Yan didn't care much, just nodded and said, "What's the matter?" ”
Lin Xiang thought about it for a while, and after a while, he said, "I think, maybe...... There may be people who have traveled through the same time as us in this era—"
"Ahem—"
Lin Xiang immediately reached out and patted Lin Yan's back, while reproaching: "You eat slowly." ”
Even if the dates were sweet enough, it was difficult to hide the rhythm of Lin Yan's spraying of rice, he raised his head, his face was incredulous, and his eyes were as big as copper bells: "You, what are you talking about?" ”
……
Lin Xiang nodded, reached out to the side of the bowl and chopsticks, reached out and poured a bowl, and then handed it to Lin Yan, while saying slowly: "I said, I think there may be someone in this era who has traveled through the same time as us." ”
When Lin Yan heard this, he couldn't care that he was eating dates, so he immediately put down the things in his hand, then raised his head, and looked at Lin Xiang with an expression that he couldn't tell whether he was frightened or surprised.
Lin Xiang and Lin Yan looked at each other.
Lin Xiang said calmly: It's similar to her expression when she came to this conclusion just now-
Lin Xiang calmly waited until Lin Yan came to his senses slightly, and then said, "But I can't be sure now, it's the jujube you eat...... Well, maybe it's the one who crossed over—"
Lin Yan hadn't swallowed a mouthful of jujube yet, and he really didn't know what to do when it stuck in his throat.
Lin Xiang said, stood up and walked to the stove.
Lin Yan suddenly felt mixed feelings in his heart, and for a while he felt that he didn't know how to speak-
"Wait and see, but it's not necessarily-"
Lin Yan was still shocked at the moment, but after thinking about it, he suddenly felt a little excited in it-
Lin Xiang went to the market to buy dates from the morning
