Chapter 14: Great Popularity
It didn't take long. A strange aroma emanated from the oven. Wu Yun suddenly remembered the scent of popcorn on the street stall, and a sweet smell filled the air around him. It is different from the fresh aroma of the previous toasted breadfruit. This scent is much stronger. It gives people a feeling of immersion.
It seems that there is also a special effect between melon sauce and breadfruit, which is a surprise. Wu Yun was a little happy.
"Alright!?" The fat man and Xiao Lei scrambled to turn on the stove.
"Nonsense! How much are you eating all the baobabs? Kasan shouted at him. It's only half the time to bake now! After she finished speaking, she looked at Wu Yun with an inquiring gaze.
"Kashan is right." Wu Yun didn't know the specific time to bake the breadfruit. So it's not wrong to listen to experienced people at this time. "We'll have to wait." The girl looked back gratefully.
This short baking time is like a year for the fat man and Xiao Lei. Looking at their expressions, Wu Yun couldn't help but worry that if it weren't for Kashan, a violent woman in the kitchen, these two people would have done whatever they wanted.
The aroma is getting stronger. Even Soru couldn't help but sniff. "Alright. It's time to turn on the furnace. Cassanne's words were like starting pistols, and the two of them turned on the stove with great speed.
The fat man is fast, so he picks up one first. The monkey hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth. "Hot~" He opened his mouth and snorted hot. Xiao Lei has learned from his past. I didn't bite down immediately, I just turned the piping hot bread upside down with both hands.
Kasan looked at the two unproductive fellows with disdain, and carefully took three out of them. They were each handed to Grandpa and Wu Yun.
Wu Yun took it into his hands. A scent of aroma wafted through the nose. He took a bite, feeling that he was still far from the actual finished jam, but it was not bad in the current conditions. The sweetness of the melon sauce is enough, but the disadvantage is sourness, and the lack of sourness in the jam is always almost meaningless. Originally, it was just a matter of adding a little lemon juice. It's really hard to climb here.
Wait, Wu Yun had a flash of inspiration. There should be similar fruits that can be used as substitutes.
He hurriedly turned to the fat man to verify it, but he was taken aback by the sight in front of him, only to see the fat man bite one in his mouth and hold one in his hand. The empty hand grabbed into the stove again. Looks like I'm going to get a third. Xiao Lei beside him didn't let him go. It looks like a starving ghost reincarnated. and the fat man scrambled in front of the stove.
Wu Yun hurriedly looked at Kassan, but found that the girl was holding the bite of bread in both hands, chewing with her eyes closed and a satisfied expression. Completely blind to them. And the village chief of Solu is also in the same shape. The difference is that the expression is slightly serious.
He had to pat her on the shoulder. Kashan opened her eyes in surprise and looked at him with a puzzled expression, and she followed Wu Yun's fingers. The crazy scene in front of her made her roar angrily: "Don't rob it, I'll divide it!" ”
Sure enough, it worked, and the two obediently stopped. Kasan gently put down the breadfruit in her hand. Walk to the stove. Take out the breadfruit one by one. She took a look at it. I have a number in my heart.
"Usually we divide four parts equally, but now that there is more Wu Yun, it should be okay to divide five shares equally, right?" Kashan looked at the two, their mouths were full, and Wu Yun couldn't help but laugh when he saw them nodding while swallowing. And several people did not notice his appearance at all.
"There are twenty-three fruits here." Kashan folded her hands and counted. There are three of you, one of me, one of grandpa, and one of Wu Yun... Then, she crossed her fingers a little overwhelmed. "Grandpa, it's better for you to divide it."
"So be it. Fifteen were left. The rest were sent to Kanu, three of them each. Soroul replied after a moment's thought.
"I've got at least four of them a meal... The fat man cried with a sad face.
"It's okay, I'll bake it later, there's still something in the box," Kashan relieved.
"Isn't there no honeydew melon in it?" The way a fat man cries while chewing can definitely make an emoji.
"Eat it, eat it, forget it if you don't eat." Kasan was completely unmoved. It seems that this trick has been used for the rest of the year.
Wu Yun looked at the breadfruit in front of him, perhaps the joy of success made him feel that he was really not too hungry. And he threw one of his own to the fat man. "Take it, after all, you're a melon picker."
"Thank you. I'll go back later. The fat man caught it. Said with a little excitement. "I'm going to pick up a little more this time. I can't let go of the provincial food. ”
You can't let go of that. Wu Yun shook his head, it was hard for him to think of what he had let go.
"It's sugar-intensive to make this." Wu Yun reminded. "There's not much left in the house."
"Little Lei, you go and give these fruits to Kanu." Solu, who had been focusing on breadfruit for a long time, spoke. "Let him come over after he is done."
Xiao Lei looked at the breadfruit in his hand nostalgically, and had to put it on the table. He picked up a bunch of breadberries and was about to go out. I thought for a moment and then stopped. "Fatty, come with me."
"Why? If you're not available, don't go. "The fat man has already started to eat the one that Wu Yun handed over.
"I don't worry about you. It's dangerous to leave you with this. Xiao Lei looked at the one he hadn't eaten and said to the fat man.
"We've been so many years and we don't have so much trust?" The fat man was not convinced.
"Not to mention, in terms of food. You really have little credibility ... Xiao Lei said mercilessly: "Kashan, did you say?"
Kashan didn't answer, just gently biting the breadfruit in her hand and sneering.
It seems that Xiao Lei's words are still well-founded. Wu Yun secretly thought, it seems that he will have to pay attention to the fat man in the future. Try not to leave him with foods that you think are important.
"Alright, alright. Just go with you. The fat man swallowed his last bite a little depressed. glared fiercely at the breadfruit on Xiao Lei's table. The two walked out one after the other.
"Wu Yun, what are you doing?" Soru asked slowly. Kasan looked at him expectantly, too.
"It's a type of jam, it's kind of a dessert. It is mainly eaten with a staple food. Wu Yun thought for a moment and gave a simple answer.
"Jam? Dessert? Staple food? What are these? ", looking at the two of them couldn't wait to ask. Wu Yun found himself digging a big hole for himself.
"Mainly used with baobabs. Thus making it tastier. "Wu Yun thinks it's still a matter of taste, and it's more reliable to ask your peers." Kassan, what do you think? ”
"yes, it's so delicious." Kasan replied, taking another bite of the breadfruit in her hand, tilting her head and chewing in thought. "The honeydew melons in it are completely different from the usual direct taste. It's soft and soft, as if it were naturally grown in baobabs. It's a new sensation with every bite. And I love the aroma of it. All of a sudden, the whole room smelled much better. ”
"That makes sense. I've never seen honeydew melons treated as a dish like this in so many years. Soru answered. The scent is truly unforgettable. Usually, after cooking, there is a bad smell in the house. ”
It's not surprising at all with the way you cook... Wu Yun secretly thought that he had just wanted to collect some more opinions from the two of them, when the two panting people running in at the door attracted everyone's attention.
"You're stupid." The fat man complained. "You just go over to Kanu and you're done. Why stop and let those people see? ”
"You still say, why don't you stop them when they come up, Kreel." Xiao Lei said-for-tat. "I was pushed and flew away. Are you worthy of your fat body?"
"Are you really stupid or fake stupid, everyone knows each other so well and the other party is still a woman. And they were junior hunters a few years ago... It's okay if one hits me and two of them. The fat man retorted with a flushed face. Didn't you see that Uncle Kanu didn't dare to stop her? You let me on? ”
"Then don't call me stupid. I'm running fast, okay. "Xiao Lei is very angry.
"That's right. There's not a single breadfruit left in your hand. People are grabbing you for something. The fat man scoffed.
"You don't have anything in your hand, why did you get caught inside?" Xiao Lei grasped the flaw in the fat man's words and looked happy.
"No one caught me, there were too many people around me and I couldn't squeeze it out... The fat man blushed a little.
"Alright, what's going on?" Solu looks at the two of you, you and I can't finish talking about it. Utter interrupted. "Fatty, come on."
"The breadfruit tastes so great. You can smell it from afar. As soon as we entered the bar, the crowd gathered inside. The fat man said nonoly. , in the blink of an eye. Uncle Kanu didn't even see it, and none of them were gone... He looked ugly when we came out... ”
"That's not either." Xiao Lei interjected. Uncle Kanu reacted quickly enough, and when he saw that the things were robbed, he quickly declared that this was the goods in the store. The price is to be doubled. Usually, a breadfruit is only 3 gold, and it is doubled to 6 gold, so it is a big savings. ”
"Then why is he so pale?" The fat man was a little puzzled. I can see it clearly when I go out.
"You're." Little Ray scoffed. "Would it be nice to hit you in the face with someone throwing money bags?!"
