Chapter 34 Bun Wrapping
"This is a snack for my sister-in-law. Xu Rujin handed Lin Chuan the dim sum promised Lin Chuan last night.
"Why did you wrap so much?" Lin Chuan looked at the large bag of dim sum in his hand and felt a little embarrassed.
Xu Rujin smiled and said: "Not much, my sister-in-law likes to eat, so I have to give my sister-in-law's family a taste, right?"
"Thank you so much, thank you so much. Lin Chuan couldn't stop saying.
"How much do you sell for this mango roll??" Lin Chuan asked again.
"Mango rolls cost two yuan a catty, and duck meat costs one or two or three cents. As always, I still want coupons, but this time I can have any coupon, as long as it's worth it. "Because the reputation of duck meat has been spread now, it doesn't have to be as cheap as before.
And this time she didn't have to have a meat ticket, so she raised the price.
"Done. Lin Chuan loaded the dim sum into the car, "What do you want to bring back today?"
"I want some beef, bring me more grapes, the more grapes the better." After speaking, Xu Rujin pulled Lin Chuan aside and whispered, "I also want some liquor, cloves, Huoxiang, cinnabar and green oil." ”
"Qingyou?" Lin Chuan was puzzled, "What is Qingyou?"
"It's black paint. Xu Rujin explained.
Green oil is also called catalpa oil and black lacquer. It is a specialty of China, and it is a dry oil obtained from the kernel of the black tree tree.
"Okay, leave it to me. Lin Chuan nodded, "What kind of grapes do you want?" There are some in our yard, and we can't finish eating, if you don't dislike it, pick them." ”
Lin Chuan added: "If you have a request for grapes, I will go to the town to find them." ”
Xu Rujin hurriedly said: "There is no requirement, just grapes." But this time I'm going to have to give you money, I don't want to make something to eat and sell it, I want to make some wine out of grapes. ”
"If you really feel sorry for it, make a good wine and distribute it to our family, and the money will be forgotten. Lin Chuan said.
Xu Rujin smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, it's enough when the time comes." ”
"Okay, beef, white wine, cloves, herbs, cinnabar, green oil, that's all, I'll bring you back at noon." After speaking, Lin Chuan got on the car and left.
......
At noon, Xu Rujin came back early, and waited for Lin Chuan to come back while making lunch with Ye Chengwei.
Today at noon, she made kidney bean stuffed buns.
Ye Chengwei had never wrapped a bun, watching Xu Rujin pinching a bun neatly, and then looking at the bun skin in his hand, he didn't know where to start.
The first time I saw something that Ye Chengwei couldn't learn, Xu Rujin felt novel.
"Like this, put the dough on your left hand and scoop some of the meat filling in the middle of the dough. Xu Rujin began to teach Ye Chengwei to pack buns little by little.
Bend your palm slightly downwards like this, and use the index and female fingers of your right hand to pinch the dough together. Then use the index finger of your left hand to push the dough next to it to the index finger of your right hand to form a pleat. Xu Rujin watched the movements of Ye Chengwei's hands while moving his hands.
"Release the index finger of your right hand and pinch the pleat with the dough you just lifted to form a pleat. Then use the index finger of your left hand to push the dough next to you towards the index finger of your right hand and pinch it tightly to form a second fold. Xu Rujin deliberately slowed down.
Keep pinching like this, and when you finish pinching the last pleat, pinch the cinch tightly and twist it gently. Xu Rujin put the pinched bun in the palm of his hand and handed it to Ye Chengwei, "Look, a bun is ready." ”
Ye Chengwei also happened to finish wrapping one at this time, but the shape was a little difficult to explain.
Xu Rujin looked at the bun in Ye Chengwei's hand, couldn't help but laugh, and comforted: "It's okay, it's good to be proficient." ”
Just as she wanted to continue teaching Ye Chengwei, she heard Lin Chuan calling her in the courtyard.
"You go first, I'll study it. Ye Cheng didn't raise his head, and picked up another piece of dough.
Xu Rujin looked at him, and stopped talking, she wanted to say that he would wait for him to come back and then pack it, which would be a waste of savings. However, Xu Rujin didn't say anything in the end, just washed his hands and went out.
Lin Chuan handed over the money from selling duck meat and mango rolls to Xu Rujin, a total of 100 yuan.
The mango rolls I made yesterday cost 20 catties and sold for 40 yuan, and the duck meat also cost 20 catties, that is, 60 yuan. This is not counting the various industrial coupons, meat stamps, cloth stamps, etc.
Xu Rujin gave twenty yuan to Lin Chuan, which was Lin Chuan's share of the cost of going out. They said before, those coupons, tickets, and Lin Chuan don't want them, and they will only be divided into cash.
"These are the things you asked me to bring back before. Lin Chuan handed the things to Xu Rujin.
Xu Rujin nodded, took the things, asked the price, and gave the money to Lin Chuan.
Xu Rujin handed the mango pancake made by Ye Chengwei in the morning to Lin Chuan, "There are thirty catties of mango pancakes here, which are sold for three yuan a catty, and this one is made of cream, milk and eggs, so it is very expensive." ”
"Okay, do you want to bring anything back in the afternoon?" Lin Chuan asked.
"Eggs. Xu Rujin put the money in the pocket of his clothes, "The eggs at home are all used up to make cream." Last night, she used up all the eggs she bought and saved at home, beat a large pot of cream out, and finally made thirty catties of mango pancakes in one go.
"Okay, I'll leave it to me. Lin Chuan loaded the mango pancake into the car, "Are you afraid that the things I bought in the morning will be broken by putting them together with the eggs?"
Xu Rujin just smiled and asked, "Did my sister-in-law eat a snack?"
"I ate it, and my future father-in-law and mother-in-law also ate it, and they all ...... It's all for you...... What's that called?" Lin Chuan thought for a long time, "Yes, full of praise!"
"That's the right word, right? Hehe, I haven't read a book, don't laugh at me if you use it wrong. Lin Chuan scratched his head.
"That's right. ”
Xu Rujin said goodbye to Lin Chuan, returned to the kitchen, and found that Ye Chengwei had learned to make steamed buns. Xu Rujin could clearly see that the buns next to him had gone from unskilled to skilled, and now the shape of the buns in his hand was no different from her buns.
Xu Rujin took the money and the things that Lin Chuan bought back to the room and put them away, only took the beef to the kitchen, and after washing his hands, he continued to make steamed buns with Ye Chengwei.
"Our family has become really good, and we learn everything so quickly. Xu Rujin was a little speechless.
"Don't talk if your heart is weak, or it will be easier to expose. Ye Chengwei didn't even raise his eyelids and continued to wrap buns.
“......”
Xu Rujin was choked by Ye Chengwei and didn't say anything, so he simply shut up and wrapped the buns.
Ye Chengwei got started quickly, and after becoming proficient, the speed also kept up, and he quickly wrapped the buns.
In the afternoon, Xu Rujin remembered that Lin Chuan would come over again, so he went home early.
But after dinner, the twins were already studying with Ye Chengwei, and Lin Chuan came back.
It turned out that he was afraid that the eggs would be bumped and broken on the road, so he simply pushed the bicycle all the way back.
