Chapter 17: Baked cakes are also small animals
Seeing Ning Er squatting down and preparing to pull the bellows, Lin Jinxiu hurriedly stepped forward to stop her: "I'll come." ”
"It's okay Sister Lin, I'll just come." Ning'er turned around and gave her a smiling face.
"I haven't helped yet." Lin Jinxiu pushed her to the basin, "Go and see if the noodles are awake, I'll pull them." ”
"Okay, thank you, Sister Lin." Ning'er was pushed to the basin, she lifted the cover on the basin, poked the glossy dough, and had to let it sit for a while.
Ning Er turned to look at Lin Jinxiu pulling the bellows, she had never found that Sister Lin had such great strength, the bellows were like toys in her hands, and she didn't even have to kick her feet on the stove.
"Sister." Ning'er, who had nothing to do for the time being, bit her lip and pinched the hem of her clothes. it.
Lin Jinxiu's gaze did not leave the bellows in his hand and the flame in the stove: "What's wrong?" ”
"Thank you, sister." Ning'er said, "Yesterday's incident, Ning'er is really, really grateful to my sister." ”
The sudden sensationalism made Lin Jinxiu a little overwhelmed, she turned her head to look at Ning Er, and saw that the little girl was raising her hand to wipe her tears.
"When I went to bed at night, I finally calmed down." Ning'er tried to keep her voice from crying, "Yesterday's incident, thank you really for my sister, I'm really sorry to involve my sister, it's really ...... Sorry ......"
After Ning Er calmed down, she realized how much disaster she and Aunt Li had brought to Lin Jinxiu.
Even if Lin Jinxiu stood up and wanted to help them, Ning'er's heart still couldn't get over.
Ning'er, who apologized while thanking her, was crying and sobbing, almost speechless. After a while, the little face and the sleeves of the left and right clothes were wet with tears, and almost dripped into the basin.
"Don't cry." Lin Jinxiu let go of the bellows, got up and hugged Ning'er hard: "You don't need to thank you, and you don't need to apologize, my sister chose to be with you by herself, believe my sister, okay?" Seeing that the oil has begun to roll, can Ning'er teach her sister to make baked cakes together? ”
Ning Er, who had received Lin Jinxiu's encouragement, nodded vigorously, and while snorting, she re-buckled the awakened dough on the board, and reached out to grease the dough and knead it again.
Lin Jinxiu is responsible for ensuring that the fire is in the maximum state on the side, and the oil will always be kept at the most needed temperature under the strong fire, maybe the baked cakes made by this will be more delicious, but unfortunately Lin Jinxiu does not know the art of making baked cakes, so she can only watch Ning'er's movements in the back to help her start.
"Sister Lin wants to learn how to make baked cakes?" Ning'er, who had made good noodles, kneaded the dough into long strips and pinched it into one dough after another, looked back at Lin Jinxiu and smiled.
At this moment, Aunt Li also woke up and walked to the kitchen, and saw that the two girls in the family were working hard, and they also rolled up their sleeves and wanted to join, but they were persuaded by Ning'er to rest and help when they were too busy.
Lin Jinxiu was afraid that Aunt Li would still be idle and miss the best time to recuperate, so she entrusted Lele on the bed to Aunt Li to help take care of her. Aunt Li, who likes children, answered her to take care of the children, and Liu Ninger and Lin Jinxiu were busy in the kitchen.
Lin Jinxiu washed her hands in the basin next to her, her sleeves were also rolled up high to avoid being stained with oil and flour, and she stood beside Ning Er and watched her dexterous little hands stretch and twist the dough, press it into a round cake shape, and put it into the oil pot.
Hanamaki? When Ning Er twisted the dough, Lin Jinxiu's mind appeared a staple food that he had often eaten in his previous life, but it was more similar to Ning Er's method of making baked cakes.
"If you twist it like this and press it into a cake, the middle of the cake will not stick together, layer by layer, and it will be crispy and fragrant after it comes out of the pot!" Ning'er held a pair of long chopsticks and turned the cake floating in oil in the pan to ensure that both sides of the cake could become crispy.
Lin Jinxiu picked up the soft dough on the board, and after a few strokes, she twisted the dough in Ning'er's way, but was interrupted by Ning'er halfway through: "Sister Ning, it's a little too long, so that the cake will have too many gaps in the inner core when pressed, and it will fall apart when it goes down to the pot." ”
Hearing Ning Er's words, Lin Jinxiu hurriedly stopped the movements in his hand and tried to find a way to remedy it, and the final cake was very irregular in shape, which looked a little funny.
It's a shame. Lin Jinxiu hurriedly looked back and found that Ning'er didn't pay attention to herself. Fortunately, it's okay, and then I took advantage of Ning'er's inattention to pinch the cake like this......
At this time, the cake in Ning'er's hand was also cooked, she took out the cake with long chopsticks and hung it on the rack made of wooden sticks to control the oil, and also walked to Lin Jinxiu's side to see the first cake she made.
When Ning Er poked her head from Lin Jinxiu's back to the board in front of her, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed: "Little rabbit! ”
Lin Jinxiu's irregularly shaped cake had two completely irremediable convex corners, and in order to look good, she simply pulled the convex corners into the shape of rabbit ears, but she didn't expect it to be in Ning'er's arms, and it seemed to be very much annoying to her.
"Sister Lin's hands are so skillful!" Ning Er exclaimed.
"Ah, no......" Lin Jinxiu was a little embarrassed. She was embarrassed to say that this was actually a failure to remedy for a long time: "I also made an attempt, if this ear falls out after getting out of the pot, it will not be good." ”
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Ning Er was eager to try, Lin Jinxiu retreated to the side of the pot and picked up the chopsticks that Ning Er Fang was holding in front of her, waiting for the cake to continue to finish.
is worthy of being a person who has been making baked cakes for a long time, Ning Er has made several baked cakes in a row, all of which are in the shape of small animals, whether it is a rabbit or a kitten or a flower, the shape is much more ingenious than Lin Jinxiu's.
"Ning'er's hands are really skillful." Lin Jinxiu carefully turned over the baked cakes in the pot with chopsticks, and held the chopsticks far away, mainly because he was afraid that the oil flowers would collapse into his hands, "This kind of baked cakes, children should like them very much." ”
Ning'er looked very happy. In fact, this is the first time she has tried to make the biscuit into the shape of a small animal, and she likes it very much. Sister Lin is really smart, if it were herself, an ordinary baked cake and a small animal's baked cake, she would definitely buy the one that looks like a small animal.
"Let's do it together." Lin Jinxiu smiled at Ning Er. She looked at the pancakes that were placed in the basket one by one, but unfortunately there was nothing like chocolate sauce in this era, and if the face of a small animal was painted on this pancake, there would definitely be more people who bought it.
If only there was something to replace it.
"Ning'er, remember to add the word "small animal" when shouting today." Lin Jinxiu reminded her, "We have to let our customers know that our baked cakes look like small animals, so that we can attract their attention and sell more." ”
"Good!" Ning'er responded.
"Let's do it." Lin Jinxiu said.
"Hmm!" Ning'er was in high spirits.
……
At dawn, Lin Jinxiu and Ning Er made more than 120 baked cakes, and the basket was full, exuding an attractive aroma.
Ning'er put the small ears of every small animal baked cake she made at the top, and the rows were very good-looking.
"Huh~Huh~" Ning'er gasped and took a clean cloth to wipe the sweat on her forehead and cheeks. She had never made so many cakes in one morning, and seeing that she was about to open for business, there were many more people on the street in front of the store, and the shops near the baked cake shop had also opened their doors one by one, and many people were greeting Ning'er warmly.
Lin Jinxiu also wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead. It was really hot to work by the stove during the day, not only the wood in the stove, but also the boiling oil in the pot, which made the morning cool disappear.
The breakfast shop is really hard. Lin Jinxiu sighed.
"Grandma, grandma!" Ning Er's silver bell-like voice called out to Aunt Li, "Grandma! It's time to open a shop, grandma! ”
Aunt Li's response came from the back of the store, Lin Jinxiu remembered that her son was still in Aunt Li's hands, and the child should be hungry when she calculated the time, so she walked to the room and took Lele back into her hands.
Aunt Li looked at this well-behaved child who didn't like to cry or make trouble, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and when she returned the child to Lin Jinxiu, she was still a little reluctant, and she looked at it several times before she walked to the store and opened the business of baking cakes with Ning'er.
Lin Jinxiu looked at Aunt Li's reaction and smiled slightly. She is really happy that her children are likable.
"Baby, are you hungry, is it okay for my mother to give the baby grandma" Seeing her mother coming, Lele grinned happily, and her little hand grabbed Lin Jinxiu's clothes and didn't let go until the milk. When the water is fed to the mouth, I let go of my soft little fingers and gulp down the milk.
What's next?
Lin Jinxiu remembered the corn flour she had placed in the space.
Aunt Li and Ning Er take care of the baked cake shop together, they don't have to worry, they just need to help keep the accounts, then send the corn flour to the old man to see how much money can be exchanged.
Lin Jinxiu, who had made up her mind, began to concentrate on feeding Lele, and it didn't take long for the little guy to eat. A child is a child, and when he was full, he began to feel sleepy and was coaxed to sleep by Lin Jinxiu.
Before leaving, Lin Jinxiu changed Lele's diaper, washed it and dried it in the backyard.
"I never thought that I would be able to miss things like diapers so much......" Lin Jinxiu, who knows how convenient modern things are, is not the first time she has said this. Changing a child's diaper may have to get used to the job before she can fully accept it.
Lele slept on the bed well, and Lin Jinxiu was afraid of waking him up, so she tiptoed out of the room and came to the store.
There were several people around the door of the store, all of whom were old customers of Aunt Li and Ning Er. While asking about Aunt Li's situation yesterday, they nibbled on the rabbit and kitten baked cakes made by Ning Er.
It seems that business is not bad. Lin Jinxiu nodded, hoping that his idea of changing the shape of the baked cake would sell more.
"Auntie, I'll go to the hospital and I'll be back in a while." Lin Jinxiu said hello to Aunt Li and walked out of the baked cake shop.
"Go, go and come back. Don't worry about Miss Lin in the store! Aunt Li said.
Lin Jinxiu walked along the memory to yesterday's medical hall, fortunately, the street was relatively smooth, the road was very recognizable, and Lin Jinxiu stood in front of the medical hall after only two turns.
