After Ji Xiyun finished maintaining the green branch for the eldest aunt, he walked in front of the patriarch again, blessed with a blessing, and said solemnly: "Patriarch, this dim sum shop is the hard work of my deceased in-laws and Pan Ba for a lifetime, and Xiyun will definitely keep it!" You can rest assured. ”

The patriarch stroked his beard: "You two women, if you can do it, you are worthy of admiration." If it doesn't work, there is no need to force it, and when the time comes, whether it is a succession or a marriage, the clan will discuss and decide. ”

Qingzhi pursed his mouth unhappily: What does the patriarch mean, if the dim sum shop business is not good, the Pan family will still intervene strongly.

But...... At least there was respite.

On the way back, he was thinking about how to convince Xiyun to make 'desserts made of the milk of the Hu people in the Western Regions', but Xiyun took the initiative to say: "Let's go to the vicinity of Dongda Temple tomorrow to see if there is any milk for the cow you said." ”

Dongda Temple is a place where the Hu people live in the Western Regions of Liangzhou.

"Good, good! It's better to buy butter and cream, if not, buy some fresh milk and come back, I can try to make it! ”

Aoeda felt that she had seen the light of day, and stayed in bed all night watching strategy videos and learning how to make cream and butter.

The next day, the two went to Todaiji Temple together in a sedan chair, Qingzhi found that sitting in a sedan chair can accumulate "line" points, very excited, before eating eyebrow crisp, the system told her that because it is an improved product, can not accumulate "eat" points, she was disappointed for a long time.

It's a pity that the sedan chair is too expensive to sit on every day.

Several streets near Todaiji Temple, the road is wider than the one in front of the dim sum shop, and they are also paved with bluestone, and the shops on both sides are spacious and bright, and it is very atmospheric, and Aozhi can already feel the momentum of the capital of a country when he sees Liangzhou Castle near the core area for the first time.

Ji Xiyun saw a bearded girl in the restaurant smiling and entertaining guests for dinner, and whispered to Qingzhi: "Look at her eyes and hair!" "A look of disgust.

Ji Xiyun grew up in the south when he was a child, and after marrying in Liangzhou, he only moved around the dim sum shop, and he didn't have the opportunity to see so many Hu people.

The two walked for a while, and Qingzhi pointed to a shop and said, "There should be one there, let's go and ask." ”

Ji Xiyun also took a look and said strangely: "I didn't see anything like fresh milk." ”

"Milk tofu and ghee on the table! There must be other dairy products. ”

Qingzhi was stunned for a moment after speaking: In my previous life, except for air-dried beef, I had never eaten other grassland specialties, and I was originally from the south of the Zhou Kingdom, how did I know the food of the shepherd?

Ah, baldness, forget it, take care of the things in front of you first.

She was going to make some simple Victorian sponge cake to sell first, and the first ingredient she needed to make sure she could find in the Great Zhou Kingdom was butter.

Behind the counter sat a beautiful woman with brown hair and deep eyes and a high nose, and Qingzhi stepped forward and asked, "Does your store have butter?" ”

The woman was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and muttered a few nonsense words behind the curtain, and a little boy ran out, with big and bright eyes, full of curly hair, and a very smart look, and asked Qingzhi, "My mother asked you what you want to buy?" ”

Ji Xiyun likes children, and bends down and smiles at the child kindly, "We want to buy butter." ”

"Butter?" The child scratched his head, looking very puzzled, and turned to his mother to say something, and the mother looked at Qingzhi with the same doubt.

Ji Xiyun also said, "Old Tie, are you okay?" Why haven't they heard of it? 's expression.

"Huh...... Maybe it's not butter, it's something else...... That's it, the kind of ...... made by boiling milk and letting it cool, and taking out the coagulated milk skin on top."

Qingzhi gestured as he spoke.

The woman listened for a long time, and then suddenly showed a look of sudden realization, and said a nonsense word to the child, and the child asked Qingzhi, "Ghee?" ”

Eh......

"You show it to me."

This sentence was not translated and was understood by the woman from the Western Regions, who took out a small jar of things, and Qingzhi leaned over to look at it, it was indeed very similar to the butter she used to spread bread in her previous life.

Otherwise...... Get your feet wet?

Both the buyer and the seller completed the transaction in disbelief, and the price was slightly more expensive than Ji Xiyun expected.

Qingzhi bought a small pot of fresh milk, and the price of fresh milk was appropriate.

Butter and fresh milk are done, and the next ingredient is powdered sugar.

In the sedan chair, Qingzhi and Ji Xiyun talked about where to find cheap and good powdered sugar, and it was not suitable to say it, and finally Ji Xiyun hesitated a little, and finally said: "Li Fang's sugar shop is not bad, we used to buy sugar from him." ”

“…… You just died of your husband, and he wants to marry you again, is it okay to go to the door? ”

"It's okay, besides, he always makes it cheaper for our dim sum shop."

"Cheap? Then we'll go right away! ”

The two arrived at Li Fang's sugar factory, which was not far from Ji Xiyun's dim sum shop.

In the past, Li Fang would take his buddies to deliver syrup to Pan Ba and his wife every once in a while, and occasionally met Xiyun.

Six years have passed since I saw her for the first time, but to this day, every time Li Fang sees her, he is still as excited as he was when he saw her for the first time.

The sugar mill was surrounded by white mist, and a master was guarding the front of boiling several large vat of syrup, although he saw someone coming in, he did not greet him, because the syrup could not be distracted when boiling, once it was too thick and too thin, the sugar might not taste right.

Ji Xiyun opened his mouth and shouted, "Is the owner of the sugar mill here?" ”

Li Fang took the young men to put the iron bucket full of syrup and let it stand, listening to the sound was a bit like Ji Xiyun, but he was not sure, and hurriedly agreed and walked out.

As soon as he saw that it was Xiyun, he immediately blushed, turned his head nervously, and pointed his good eye at her.

The other eye boiled sugar when he was a teenager, and the hot sugar juice splashed in his eye, and he never saw it again.

Ji Xiyun didn't look at him, but said, "We want to buy some powdered sugar." Remembering Qingzhi's instructions, he said, "Be as detailed as possible, and the price should not be too expensive." ”

After saying that, I also feel that it is difficult for some strong people, how can powdered sugar not be expensive?

Unexpectedly, Li Fang only said: "No problem, no problem!" The face is very sincere, not like perfunctory.

After he finished speaking, he began to feel cramped, at a loss, and Ji Xi Yun saw that Qingzhi was staring at the iron bucket containing the syrup, so he had to open his mouth to ease the atmosphere and said, "Have you been doing good business here recently?" Boil so much sugar. ”

Li Fang rubbed his hands: "It's okay, there's more in it, do you want to see it?" After saying that, he became even more nervous, and even the old master who boiled the sugar was distracted and looked at him strangely.

Ji Xiyun was about to say no, but Qingzhi said, "I want to go and see, is it okay?" ”

Li Fang walked in with the two of them, the room inside was densely packed with iron buckets full of syrup, and the old master saw that Li Fang was a little wrong when he saw Ji Xiyun, and he was afraid that he would forget, so he reminded loudly outside: "Those buckets must not be moved!" You can't make frosting when you move! ”

Ji Xiyun and Qingzhi hurriedly agreed.

Qingzhi looked at the barrels carefully again, and asked Li Fangdao: "Shopkeeper Li, these iron buckets are all custom-made by blacksmiths, right?" ”

These drums have a live opening at the bottom to facilitate the syrup to be filtered out, and the workmanship is very fine.
