The little wolf cub ran back to the big house with some grievances because his 'intentions' were not recognized, and Xu teased it, but it didn't care.

Shen Shuang came back from a walk outside to know that the little wolf cub caught a fat rabbit, looking at the rabbit dying, it didn't seem to be very good, and it couldn't survive until tomorrow, Shen Shuang could only ask Shen Zhuzi to help deal with it.

As for the hero who caught the rabbit, Shen Shuang felt that he should keep an eye on it in the future.

It was already dark, there was no one in the yard, and Shen Zhuzi's handling of rabbits was not known by the rest of the Shen family, and Shen Zhuzi was a person who didn't like to talk and chew his tongue, and the Shen family didn't know about the existence of this rabbit.

Ming'er's Shen family was going to the field to pull seedlings and plant seedlings, and Shen Shuang'er was going to the town, so she prepared some things for Ming'er's breakfast, and then washed and rested.

When she came back to-day, she saw a mule cart on the way, although it was not as fast as a horse-drawn cart, but it was really better than an ox cart, and it could also have the mule help to grind.

Shen Shuang thought that maybe a mule would be better taken care of than a horse, after all, the horse at this time cost a few hundred taels of silver, and the food had to be exquisite, and it was not easy to raise.

Shen Shuang got up earlier than before, and only ran around the house before coming back, and he didn't have time to run more, so he hurriedly went to the kitchen to light a fire to cook, and after a while, they had to go to the field to pull seedlings, and they couldn't delay.

Shen Shuang cooked breakfast first, and then began to work to bring the lunch to the field, fortunately, the weather was not completely hot, so the food was also durable, and she was not as good as her mother Xu's craftsmanship, and she could make any noodles such as wowotou, steamed buns, and buns.

She is good at some dishes, so she has to cook white rice according to the amount, and at the same time use the rabbit meat marinated last night and add potatoes to boil, plus some stir-fried bitter gourd, this is the lunch of Old Man Shen and a few people.

When he heard the movement outside, Shen Shuang had already packed the cooked food with things, put it in the back basket with the dishes, chopsticks and water, and let Shen Zhuzi carry it to the field to eat at noon.

It's just rabbit meat boiled potatoes, the fragrance is too fragrant, Wan Shi came out of the house and ran directly to the kitchen to see what kind of dishes Shen Shuang was messing with, and she was a little disappointed when she saw those breakfast with clear soup and little water.

"Why do you cook breakfast so deliciously?"

"Sweet potato porridge."

The Shen family's breakfast is very simple, sweet potato porridge with cold cucumbers, and steamed sweet potatoes, it's not that she doesn't want to give people delicious food, it's that the Shen family really doesn't have anything.

Besides, the farmer's breakfast has always been like this, and there are many people who eat and there are no materials, so naturally there are no tricks.

Old man Shen and Wan were reluctant to work in the field with Shen Laosan, but Shen Laosan was also afraid that the villagers would poke his backbone and say that he would not help the family when he went home, so he also got up early to eat and planned to go to the field to help pull seedlings.

Even if Wang Baoniang has many opinions, he is still together, wanting to earn face in the village.

In addition to Shen Tusheng in the town, the men of the Shen family, including stones and hills, have to go to the field to help, and even if they take Shen Cuini even if they don't have to go into the paddy field to pull seedlings, they have to help throw seedlings and help, as for her to embroider a veil, don't think about it in the past two days.

Except for the Xu family who was lying on the kang, and Shen Shuang, who was going to the town, the Shen family was also out together, as for the people in the third room, they wouldn't take care of your farm work, and they didn't get up until noon, and no one said.

Shen Shuang ate breakfast and hurried out to go out to the village to wait for the ox cart.

Today is Jiang Zitong's birthday, and she promised to get her a birthday cake, but before going out, Wan called Shen Shuang and stuffed her with a tael of silver.

Shen Shuang, who saw clearly that the thing in his hand was silver: "......"

Is it going to rain in the sky? Her grandmother would give her silver?

Wan crossed his waist and ordered her in a thick voice, "Take the silver well, go to the pork guy in the town to buy me ten catties of pork and come back, remember to buy fat." Buy 20 meat buns, 20 vegetarian buns, a jar of wine, and buy some melon seeds and dried fruit snacks to come back, and you have to give me back the rest of the silver. ”

Shen Shuang frowned, "To buy so many things, is this tael of silver enough?" ”

"Why not enough? Hurry up and don't delay your work. ”

Wan Shi has actually calculated an account in her heart, and the silver to buy these things is definitely not enough, especially if a jar of wine is good, she can't buy half a tael of silver, but she just wants Shen Shuang to post money, she can know from her old man that Shen Shuang is telling stories in the town, and she will definitely be able to make money, since she doesn't hand it in herself, then she will think of a way to let her take it out.

Shen Shuang didn't know Wan's thoughts, seeing her waving at her and turning her head away, she was a little speechless, and just wanted to leave, Wan Lao Niang rushed over again.

Wan Lao Niang came to Shen's house to stay for a few days, so she was not in a hurry to go back, seeing her daughter buy so many things for Shen Shuang for a tael of silver, she was red-eyed, and she couldn't wait to grab it and buy it herself, but she was too lazy to go to the town, she was old, and she didn't like to go on an ox cart, so she stopped Shen Shuang from talking, as if she had forgotten the embarrassing things that happened yesterday.

"I heard that there are a lot of Fanbang fruits sold by Hu merchants in the town, you buy some back, and there are also snacks and melon seeds, you can go back when you buy them, don't stay in the town for so long for a girl's family, even if the owner of the restaurant values you, don't take it, just take some wine and food and come home, go."

Shen Shuang: "......"

Shen Shuang didn't say anything, turned around and left, and took some wine and food home? Treat her as someone who goes to Yunlailou to fight the autumn breeze?

In recent days, every household in Xishan Village has been busy, so there are not many people going to the town, and the cars are not as crowded as before.

Shen Shuang met several women in the village, and they also asked how Xu's injuries were, and when they learned that her arms and feet would take a long time to heal, several women looked a little worried on their faces, and they stopped talking.

Shen Shuang also knew what they were worried about, don't look at her grandmother hasn't been in trouble today, but it's just the beginning, in a few days, the family will definitely have to make trouble, saying that her mother doesn't work, even if her father has agreed, it's useless.

Shen Shuang didn't think much about it, took the ox cart to the town, and went straight to Jiang's house.

Jiang Zitong is staying at home today, but Jiang Zipei is not there, and when she saw Shen Shuang coming, she immediately remembered the cake she said.

"Sister Shen, you're here."

Jiang Zitong saw her enthusiasm, and knew what she was thinking.

"Have you prepared all the materials I asked you to prepare?"

Jiang Zitong nodded hurriedly, and then took Shen Shuang to see the 'cow' that Jiang Zipei had asked someone to get back a few days ago, and it was only transported to the house last night.

"Look, this is my brother asked a familiar Hu merchant to buy it, saying that it is a prairie flower cow in the north, specializing in milk production, is it the cow you said?"

Shen Shuang was very surprised to see the cow eating hay, he didn't expect to be able to find the cow, if not, this cake would not be very easy to make today, after all, without cream, the cake can be described as soulless.

"So let's milk the cows first?"

Jiang Zitong was stunned, he didn't understand this operation very well, but he still nodded excitedly.

Because it takes a lot of effort, Shen Shuang has to rush home, so she asked Jiang Zitong's maid to help her buy pork and wine, and come back after buying a tael of silver.

The kitchen of the Jiang family has prepared the things needed to make the cake, and there is also a simple oven, which she drew before and asked Jiang Zitong to make it, and it is also very convenient to bake some small biscuits and even roast chicken in the future.

This oven was still learned by her before, and others did it very successfully, and Shen Shuang didn't know if she could do it.

Flour, eggs, milk, honey and sugar.

There was no egg beater, no oven, it was a bit laborious to make the cake, and it failed once during the period, and the cake was baked burnt.

Jiang Zitong watched the whole process, and didn't know if it was a failure, Shen Shuang was still a little nervous, boasting that Haikou was going to make a cake for her, and she got so many things, even the cows came, Shen Shuang naturally didn't want to disappoint her.

In the end, the emperor finally lived up to his wishes, the cake was made, the cream was successfully distributed, Shen Shuang also used purple potatoes to color the cream, which was in response to Jiang Zitong's 'purple' word, and it also wrote Happy Birthday, except for the ugly words, everything was fine.

"Zitong, I wish you a happy birthday."

Shen Shuang took a cake smeared with cream and decorated with fruit and written words, and asked Jiang Zitong, who was driven by her to rest, to come back to see the results, and saw the surprised expression on her face, and silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Shuang swore that she didn't make a cake for the first time without such a toss, but at that time, there were all kinds of things to make cakes, but now, it can be regarded as difficult, and she is still a little worried that the taste may not be good enough for a while.

Jiang Zitong was very excited, "Sister Shen, this, is this the cake?" It's so beautiful, it's the best dim sum I've ever seen. ”

Dim sum? Indeed, it can be regarded as a Western confectionery.

"Do you like it? This is my gift to you, originally to put candles on the cake for your birthday, but I just asked the cook, the candles at home are too big, even if you don't, it's okay to have none. ”

Jiang Zitong hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and when she saw the purple cream, she inexplicably thought it was delicious, as for what candles she was talking about, she didn't care at all, and was thinking about eating the round 'dim sum' in front of her.

"Of course I like it, Sister Shen, you are so good, you can make this cake, I have never seen such a beautiful dim sum in the capital before, how can I eat this? I want to try it. ”

"Just cut it with a knife and put it in the plate, I just asked Uncle Mo to sharpen the fork with bamboo, and I'll use the fork to eat it after a while."

"Forks?"

Shen Shuang hurriedly took a saucer, on which was placed a bamboo knife sharpened from bamboo, as well as several bamboo forks, which were specially used to eat cakes.

Such a novel way of eating made Jiang Zitong even more excited, she picked up the knife to cut it, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly put it down, "Sister Shen, my fifth brother may not arrive until after noon, and the seventh brother is also in Yunlai Tower, I want to wait for my fifth brother and my seventh brother to come back before eating with them, and I also want them to see this cake, is it okay?" ”

Shen Shuang naturally didn't have any objections, although she wanted to taste the first cake she had made in ancient times, but when the time came, just ask Jiang Zitong.

However, the problem is that the weather is not durable.

"Do you have an ice cellar at home? This cake is not resistant to putting, and I am afraid that the cream will melt and spoil. ”

Jiang Zitong shook his head and said no, and then remembered Yunlailou, "Sister Shen, there is an ice cellar in Yunlailou, why don't we send the cake to Yunlailou?" ”

"Okay."

Shen Shuang didn't go to Yunlai Building, but Uncle Mo brought the cake over to ice, Shen Shuang told her to eat it as soon as possible, and the maid who happened to help her buy things had also returned, Shen Shuang carried a basket full of things, and a can of wine in her arms to wait for the ox cart to go home.

She also told Jiang Zitong by the way about the need to change her carriage to a mule cart, Jiang Zitong agreed, and said that Uncle Mo would be able to send the mule cart to Xishan Village tomorrow, after all, mules are much easier to find than suitable horses.
