After everyone dispersed, He took Gao's mother and daughter to clean up the yard.

Seeing that Gu Jinxiu was cleaning the mugwort leaves she picked that day, He asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Gu Jinxiu washed the somewhat wilted mugwort leaves, thinking about picking some back, and said, "I'm going to make some mugwort leaves to sell." ”

He carried a chair into the house and asked, "Aren't you going to collect debts?" ”

Gu Jinxiu took out the cleaned mugwort leaves and put them in the basket, "Debt collection can't delay me from earning money." ”

Being the head of this village is a mess, and she never thought of pursuing politics in her position!

Seeing He come out of the house, Gu Jinxiu asked, "Mother, when will Liu come back?" ”

It's better not to come back!

He Shi said angrily: "I found out that she did something wrong yesterday, let her drink bran porridge this morning, I counted her a few more words, and after lunch, I carried a bag of brown sugar back to my parents' house." ”

The Liu family actually dared to take the things she did business back to her parents' house, Gu Jinxiu proposed to the He family: "Mother, today's matter will reach her, don't pick her up, let her stay at her mother's house for a few days." ”

He frowned and asked, "Is this good?" ”

Gu Jinxiu knew what the He family was worried about, and persuaded him: "Mother, don't worry, the Liu family's family doesn't dare to starve your grandson, don't forget that I am still a Duke of Xie Yuan, and they are looking forward to me becoming famous in one fell swoop!" ”

In this way, He was persuaded by Gu Jinxiu.

Liu was left at Liu's house until she couldn't stay anymore, and on the eve of the February Society, she came back by herself.

Gu Jinxiu didn't want to make the He family too tired, and because she had the deed of sale of Gao's mother and daughter in hand.

So, Ai Yebaba's approach was not hidden, and she revealed it in front of the three of them.

In this matter, although He Shi wondered why Gu Jinxiu would do something she had never heard of, but after these few days, she chose to hide it in her heart and did not ask questions.

Gu Jinxiu knew He's doubts, her daughter, who obviously didn't know how to cook, is now skilled in cooking, and has changed a lot in other aspects.

She had already figured out how to deal with He, but He didn't ask, so she had to go with the flow.

After thinking about it, Gu Jinxiu asked the He family to take the Gao family to pick grapefruit leaves, firstly, to let the Gao family be familiar with the village, and secondly, to let everyone know about the arrival of the Gao family's mother and daughter, so as not to make outsiders suspicious.

And she took Gao's daughter Gao Ling'er to pick mugwort leaves, and she planned to hand over this work to Gao Ling'er in the future.

Gao Ling'er's original surname was changed by Gu Jinxiu.

Gu Jinxiu felt that since she had left her original home and followed her mother again, she asked her to take her mother's surname.

However, neither of them changed their names.

In the evening.

Four people were busy in the kitchen.

Gu Jinxiu put the glutinous rice flour and the chopped mugwort leaves that had been blanched and soaked in water in a large wooden basin, added warm boiled water, and began to knead the dough until it was kneaded into a non-sticky and slightly dry dough.

Gao sat opposite Gu Jinxiu, holding a stone mortar of fried peanuts and sesame seeds.

Although Gu Jinxiu was cooking in the county office, Gao was still very surprised.

The phrase gentleman is far away from cooking does not apply to this skilled cook, not at all like when she was in her mother-in-law's house before, men didn't enter the kitchen anyway!

Gao Ling'er is lighting the fire, boiling the water to prepare for the steaming of mugwort leaf poop.

He Shi walked in with the washed and dried grapefruit leaves, thinking about this kind of pastry, it was the first time she had heard of it, and Gu Jinxiu was also the first time to do it, worried that it would not be successful, so she proposed: "Jinhao, let's make a little bit to taste it first, if it is not delicious, you will return the silver to your friend, and we will not do this business." ”

Mother, everything is difficult at the beginning, not to mention that this is the cost of your daughter, and you want to lose it before you start.

Gu Jinxiu helplessly lied again: "Mother, you don't have to worry, my friend said that he would pay him." ”

At the beginning, she said to He that she wanted to sell Ai Ye Baba, but He disagreed, Gu Jinxiu had to say that she had promised her friend to partner in the business and also received her friend's money, so this scene happened.

The first cut and then the prelude really worked!

Then she bought ten acres of land, and planting with modern planting methods should also work!

Seeing that Gu Jinxiu is becoming more and more assertive now, He knows that it is not so easy to make sense: "Take it and sell it tomorrow, if it is not good to sell, let's not do it." ”

Gu Jinxiu frowned slightly, tomorrow Ai Ye Baba will appear in the market for the first time, people must have a process to accept a new thing, seeing He Shi's resolute attitude, he sighed softly, "Okay, I'll listen to my mother." ”

Ai Ye Baba is not easy to sell, she will try her best to sell it and prove to the He family that this thing is feasible!

After the noodles were kneaded, and the yellow sugar was added to the peanuts and minced sesame seeds and mixed into the filling, Gu Jinxiu began to teach the three of them to make mugwort leaf baba.

Gu Jinxiu picked a little dough, kneaded it into a flat circle in his hand, put in a small spoonful of peanut sesame filling, then pinched it tightly to the middle, kneaded the interface into a ball, and then put it in the mold and squeezed it to form a flat shape, one side is smooth, one side has a pattern, and then put the grapefruit leaf on the smooth side, and finally put the side with the grapefruit leaf on the steamer drawer.

After doing it, Gu Jinxiu said: "Actually, this is quite easy, mother, you help pick the small ball, I and Gao's are trapped, and Ling'er is responsible for printing and putting leaves." ”

After the division of labor was completed, the four of them began to make mugwort leaf baba.

"Brother Jin Hao, what do you think of the patterns I printed?" Gao Ling'er asked.

Gu Jinxiu looked at the mugwort leaves wrapped in grapefruit leaves in Gao Ling'er's hand, and praised: "It's well printed!" ”

Then, she put the ball in her hand into the mold seal and asked Gao Ling'er to seal it.

In the mutual communication between the four of them, Ai Ye Baba was ready.

At this time, the water in the pot had already boiled, Gu Jinxiu put the steamer in the pot and began to steam the mugwort leaf baba.

Gu Jinxiu, who didn't have a good grasp of the ancient time, steamed the mugwort leaf baba for almost two teas.

The mugwort is ripe.

The kitchen is filled with the scent of mugwort leaves and grapefruit leaves.

As soon as Gu Jinxiu opened the lid, the mugwort leaves were too soft and scattered, and some of them overflowed the grapefruit leaves, and its pattern was gone.

Looking at this, Gu Jinxiu knew that her time and heat were not well controlled.

Because of too many mugwort leaves, the mugwort leaves turned dark green, and it looked a little black, which was not very good in the eyes of the ancients.

He Shi worriedly proposed: "Jin Hao, why don't we make a little bit to eat for ourselves, and don't sell it?" ”

I hate it as my own, let alone others.

Gu Jinxiu didn't want to give up, "Mother, it's just that there are too many mugwort leaves, and the heat has not been mastered well, don't worry, you can do it well if you try a few more times!" ”

At this time, Gao Ling'er's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she said with a smile: "Brother Jin Hao, I think if you don't add the last fire, it should be fine, but this is too soft and suitable for the elderly!" ”

Gu Jinxiu wanted to say that the old man was eating sticky teeth, and thought that the He family still didn't agree with this matter very much, so don't say it.

"Mother, why don't you try it?"

Gu Jinxiu took a bowl and gave it to the He family, and then beckoned the Gao family and daughter to eat, these two drawers of more than 20 mugwort leaf baba, she didn't plan to sell it.

He took a bite, there was a faint fragrance of wormwood mixed with the fragrance of grapefruit leaves, and nodded slightly, it tasted good but whether this was good or not, she couldn't say.

"I'll accompany you to sell it tomorrow!"

After Gu Jinxiu agreed with He's words, she said, "Mother, don't worry, after this is cold, the taste will be better." ”

Gao's mother and daughter liked this mugwort leaf baba after tasting it, and also said that this pastry is delicious and will definitely sell well.

In the praise of Gao's mother and daughter, Gu Jinxiu continued to steam the remaining two drawers of mugwort leaf baba.

This time, Gu Jinxiu made Gao Ling'er cease fire with almost a cup of tea.

When she opened the steamer to look, the pattern of the mugwort had not changed.

Gu Jinxiu tasted the mugwort leaf baba, which was already ripe.

She decided to let Gao Ling'er steam the mugwort leaf baba according to this heat next time.

Gu Jinxiu planned to hand over the work of Ai Ye Ba to the He family and the Gao family's mother and daughter.

When it comes to selling, she goes first.

When there is a market, hire someone to help sell it.

As for the work in the fields, in previous years, Gu Qingzhi did the work of farming at home.

After he died, Gu Jinhao waited for everyone to hire someone to do it when they were busy with spring ploughing.

This year's work, it is estimated that He will not be able to finish it.

She also has ten acres of land.

She plans to go to the blacksmith shop to build new farming tools and buy a cow to work on.
