As soon as Niu Caigao heard that this wife's cake was to be ...... with flour, brown sugar, and eggs, this kind of particularly expensive good thing, he couldn't help but scold Niu Sanduo in the bottom of his heart!

Flour, brown sugar, eggs, etc., is that something that ordinary people can afford?

Does my son know how much a pound of flour is now? How much is brown sugar a pound?

And that egg......

If the chickens raised by rural people lay eggs, they generally do not eat them themselves, but slowly save them. After saving a few dozen, they will go to the bazaar and exchange money with others, or barter for goods.

Therefore, in the countryside, eggs and meat are hard currency.

These good things should be used to make wife cakes. How much does it cost to buy a wife's cake?

At this moment, Niu Caigao suddenly felt that it was not ordinary to be a wife cake.

This wife's cake is too expensive, and it is not something that ordinary people can eat.

So, he couldn't help but say to him, "Sanduo, this pink brown sugar, and eggs, sesame seeds, winter melon stuffing, or something,...... It's too expensive. Can we replace it with something else? ”

Niu Sanduo listened to it and was choked up at that time. He felt that he was being embarrassed by his father again.

Fine white flour should be okay to replace it with coarse rough grain, right?

It's just that the taste here should be a little worse.

As for the egg,...... You can also put less.

However, white sugar should be used to make wife cakes. However, this ancient white sugar is particularly expensive. Ordinary aristocrats can't afford to eat this thing, let alone old peasants like them.

Therefore, he just told this father that when he made the raw materials for his wife's cake, he only talked about brown sugar.

However, where did he expect that his father would not even be willing to brown sugar.

So, Niu Sanduo thought about it seriously and said, "Dad~, I'll put less eggs in this wife's cake." Only half an egg should be put in a pound of rough grain, which should also be possible. And that brown sugar, I'll replace it with something else......"

Niu Cai saw that his son had compromised, so he smiled and narrowed his eyes at that time, nodded and said, "Okay." We are all peasant families, and we don't have any money under our hands. The goods sold are all for those who have no money. So, this so-called wife cake, if you sit roughly, it's all fine. Anyway, those people can't eat a few good things all year round. It's a blessing for them to have a wife cake and sell it to them cheaper......"

Hearing Daddy say this, Niu Sanduo sighed and nodded.

In fact, Niu Sanduo's father in his previous life, in the past, he started by making wife cakes.

His father only had the first Chinese at the time.

But his father insisted on making wife cakes every day, married his wife and gave birth to children, and raised the children so big in one go.

Niu Sanduo had already learned how to make wife cakes in his last life under the influence of his father.

Because he was quite sensible when he was young, as long as he had time, he would help his father make wife cakes at home.

Now reliving the past time, I am picking up dozens of catties of rough grain, and I am going to the Wu family to borrow a stone mill for a stone mill, and I can't help but start to feel nostalgic.

There is a need for comparison between this person and each other.

The father in his previous life was quite good to him. But when he grew up, he always disliked him for being poor, always felt that he was ashamed of himself, and always felt that he couldn't get on the stage. So, his temper grew. So much so that every time he sat with his parents, it was like eating a cannonball, and his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not eyes.

He had received their favor in those years, and he never thought of repaying them well.

Now that he has traveled to this strange dynasty, he has no food and clothing every day, and he is exploited by the cunning father in his life. Just thinking about it, he felt depressed in his heart.

Niu Sanduo took this wife and the cheap son and knocked on the door of the Wu family, and Wu Hongsheng, who was still at home at this time, opened the door for him with gold.

As soon as Niu Sanduo saw that Wu Hongsheng was still at home today, he was a little weak in his heart.

Still, he looked nervous and told him what he wanted.

"Uncle Wu, I came here today to ask you for help and borrow the stone mill. Grind all the dozens of catties of rough grain here into powder......"

Hearing this, Wu Hongsheng glanced at it quietly and did not answer directly.

Their stone mill is used every day.

The donkey, and the mule, had been circling the graphite all the time.

Because there are too many things to grind in their house.

However, the neighbors finally came to the door to beg him, and he could not just drive them out.

So, after he invited all the people from Niu Sanduo's small family in, he told his eldest son.

"Big Tiger, Sanduo of the Niu family wants to borrow our stone mill, you quickly put the mule back. Then ask the woman to make it a pot of food, and let it sleep again after it is full......"

In ancient times, farm work mainly relied on human and animal power.

These livestock in the family are the most valuable things.

Only when they are well raised can they create value for this home.

And Niu Sanduo, who was standing on the side, heard this at this time, and there was an indescribable disappointment in his heart.

He knew that the people of the Wu family were not the kind of people who could let him take advantage of him casually.

He just said that he would borrow a stone mill to use it, and the people of the Wu family really only borrowed him from the stone mill. But he did not intend to lend him mules and donkeys or anything......

He picked dozens of catties of rough grain here.

If you rely on yourself, your wife, and your son, if the three of you grind together, you will be tired to death!

However, no matter how dissatisfied Niu Sanduo was in his heart, he didn't dare to show it.

Instead, he apologized repeatedly.

The ancient stone mill was also particularly valuable to the peasant family with ordinary living conditions.

When the Wu family used it again, they were carefully maintained.

As for Niu Sanduo, he didn't feel like this at all.

He noticed that the Wu family's stone mill was almost a meter wide in diameter, and he couldn't help but gasp.

"Daughter-in-law, you have to help me when I grind these coarse grains later. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get things done on my own......"

His daughter-in-law saw Niu Sanduo's thin body, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

It's been so long, why haven't you been pregnant yet?

Can this cow be born?

She thought distractedly while giving Niu San more effort.

It took a whole morning for their family of three to grind seven catties of rough grain flour.
