Chapter 9 Walnut Cake
After steaming for a while, Liu Hai carefully shoveled down the formed walnut cake and put it in the bowl, the bottom of the pot was still stained with a layer of black paste, he carefully peeled off the pasted layer, the walnut cake looked much better, the color was golden and translucent, and the air was filled with an attractive sweet fragrance.
This time the steaming is indeed not less, not to mention that the bangs are full of a basket, there are even two or three bowls left.
Zhang Da swallowed his saliva desperately, looking at the walnut cake in the bowl with longing eyes, and looking at the bangs again.
Bangs smiled a little helplessly, he stretched out his finger and pointed to one of the bowls, then picked up one with both hands and walked out.
"Okay, if you're hungry, eat some, but don't eat too much. Later, you accompany me to the West Market, and we will sell all the walnut cakes in the basket, and if you don't go home, you can eat together at our house in the evening, and I will make some delicious treats for you. ”
Liu Hai held a bowl in each hand, and gently knocked the door of Second Uncle Liu's house with his elbow, the door opened a crack, Second Uncle Liu saw Liu Hai standing in front of the door from the crack in the door, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, pushed the door out directly, and looked at him with some reproach.
"You said that you didn't speak when you called the door, I thought the Lin family sent someone! What, do you want to take Ayu back now? ”
"I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you for a while, I'm going to go to the West Market with Zhang Da, sell some walnut cakes, and then buy some food for Ayu to replenish her body. This is the walnut cake I made, and I specially brought it over to my second uncle and aunt to taste, don't dislike it. ”
Liu Hai glanced inside the door, although Second Uncle Liu had already made way for a vacant seat, obviously wanting to let himself in. It's just that he doesn't have time to greet any more now, and he just wants to hurry to the West Market to sell the walnut cake, so he doesn't plan to go in.
Second Uncle Liu glanced at the walnut cake in Liu Hai's hand, and then looked at Liu Hai in surprise, obviously he didn't expect him to take it and give it to himself, which made his face look a lot better.
"Sure enough, there is progress, I heard Ayu say just now that I don't believe it, but now I see that you have really changed. But you can live a good life, and the second uncle and aunt are happy for you. But this walnut cake is not needed, your family is still full of food, we will naturally help you if we can help, you are too polite to take this thing. ”
Liu Hai forcibly stuffed the bowl into Second Uncle Liu's hand, took two steps back, and walked towards his house while smiling.
"If I do business in the future, I will have to trouble my second uncle and aunt to help me take care of Ayu. What's more, this is not a precious thing, I am the second uncle and second aunt are elders, and it is natural for the younger generations to respect some elders for food, so don't be polite to me. ”
Second Uncle Liu looked at the bowl in his hand in wonder, and at the same time looked at the back of Liu Hai running back in a hurry, but he smiled and spit, but he was indeed much more comfortable in his heart, and his view of Liu Hai had changed.
"I didn't expect this kid to have grown a lot after such an incident, and Ayu is not hopeless in the future."
As he spoke, he closed the door and went into the house.
Zhang Da is so good at eating, Liu Hai has only been out for a short time, and he actually ate half a bowl.
This made Liu Hai breathtaking, thanks to Zhang Da's family background, he could not afford to support him.
Half-sized, eat poor old man.
As soon as Liu Hai thought that he would need Zhang Da to help him with his work in the future, and he would definitely need to take care of his food, he felt his temples jump for a while.
Zhang Da saw that his eyes were a little dull, so he hurriedly put his hands behind his back and didn't dare to take them into the bowl again.
I see, bangs looked at his sleeves slightly bulging, and then he suddenly realized, he was angry and funny.
"Alright, you don't have to hide. When we come back from selling these walnut cakes, if you are rare, just take a bowl back and give it to your Aya Niang to eat, and I won't say anything. ”
Zhang Da was stunned at first, he looked at his bangs, and couldn't help lowering his head and snorting, as if he was a little uncomfortable.
In these years, food is still very expensive, even if Zhang Da's family is well-off, but he is also a farmer, no matter how good it is, at most he will not be starved to death.
It's rare to see bangs as generous. Many people hide their food, and even if others are about to starve to death, he will not give them a little bit to eat.
Liu Hai didn't care about what Zhang Da was thinking, after all, he had never been a particularly stingy person. What's more, he now has the idea of subduing Zhang Da, and he won't be stingy with him.
Even if he is in a difficult situation now, Liu Hai is still very confident in himself, and he has traveled over with so much knowledge from the later life, and now he has obtained an assistant system.
If you can't survive in this Tang Dynasty, it's weird.
After all, his own strength is small, if he earns money first, woos some people, and then buys some weapons for self-protection before Lin Dachun makes trouble, he will always be able to carry it.
Looking at the remaining walnut cake in the bowl, Liu Hai also picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth and tasted it, frowning slightly.
The bangs chewed twice, and sighed in his heart. It's still a pity that there is no sugar, but the umami of walnuts makes up for a lot. The most valuable thing in this era is the most natural taste of food, so it seems that it can barely be passed.
Fortunately, when I carried Ayu into the house just now, I saw that there were still a few pieces of oiled paper in the room where she lived, and I didn't know what I left behind, in short, it could come in handy now.
Bangs carefully cut the oiled paper into small pieces of paper, carefully wrapped the walnut cake cake one by one, and then put it in a basket.
He carried the basket and glanced back at Zhang Da.
"Okay, don't be stunned yet, come with me to the West Market."
Zhang Da nodded hurriedly, snatched the basket from Liu Hai's arm, and followed Liu Hai to the West Market.
At this time, the West Market was still in a relatively busy time, although the cold tongue was numb, but there were still many people standing in front of their stalls next to the freeze, and shouted loudly whenever they saw someone passing by, which sounded quite lively.
Liu Hai and Zhang Da walked around the street twice, but they didn't see a place to stop. Even as soon as he stood next to someone else's stall, someone looked at him, not knowing what he was gossiping.
Liu Hai knew that the reputation of the original owner was not very good in this place, and there were many people around him who knew him, so he reacted like this.
However, he didn't have the idea of explaining them one by one now, even if Zhang Da was angry and wanted to rush over to argue, he was grabbed by Liu Hai. After a long time, people's impression of him will naturally change, and it is useless to say anything now.
However, Grandma Wang, who sold Hu fen, was very enthusiastic when she saw him, and resolutely let them stand in front of her stall to sell.
glanced at Zhang Lao'er, who was selling steamed cakes opposite, Liu Hai pursed his lips disappretently, and then chatted with Grandma Wang.
"Haiwazi, why are you carrying this basket?"
