Chapter 143: Birthday Cake
The next day, Song Qingzhi went to Dongda Temple by himself, and first went to the house where he bought milk and ghee last time to greet the Nahu woman, who did not go out of the Dongda Temple very much, and rarely saw Zhou girls, which were quite fresh, and also greeted Qingzhi.
Qingzhi showed the woman the cake, explained that it was made with her milk and ghee, and divided the cake into the shape of a dice for her to taste.
After the woman finished eating, she called the little boy over, and muttered a few words, and the little boy asked Qingzhi, "My mother asked you if you sell this delicious dim sum?" ”
Qingzhi nodded, pointed to the cut triangle, and said, "Five hundred wen." ”
After the little boy translated, the woman was stunned for a moment, but she readily took out the money, bought a piece, and shared the cake with the little boy behind the counter.
Qingzhi saw that the little boy's hair was curly, his eyes were big, and he looked very cute, and when he finished eating the cake, she squatted down and asked with a smile, "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Kangle."
"Good name!"
The child nodded a little shyly: "We are Kangguo people, and we take the country as our surname in Da Zhou, and my father said that he hopes I will always be happy, so I am called Kangle." ”
"You like this cake?"
"Like, it's called a cake? Is it made of eggs? ”
"That's right! And milk and ghee. It's delicious, right? But it's not easy to sell, so you have nothing to do to help me promote it among the children. Qingzhi's face was a little hot after speaking, and it was really a sin to instigate children to buy snacks!
"My cousin and aunt are very sweet food, you wait a minute!" After saying that, he ran behind the curtain, about a big family living together?
Sure enough, Kang Le quickly ran out with a bright little girl, who was fair-skinned and had amazing eyelashes, and had heard about the cake from Kang Le about the cake just now, and as soon as she ran out, she stared closely at the cake in the tray of green branches.
They were followed by a fat woman, dressed in a beautiful pale yellow turban, with red and plump lips that looked charming.
As soon as the fat lady walked out, Kang Le's mother behind the counter said something to her, and the two women sneered, Qingzhi felt as if Kang Le's mother was laughing at the fat woman's love for sweets, and the fat woman also laughed at herself.
Kang Le introduced: "This is my aunt, this is my cousin, her name is Kang Yin'er. ”
My aunt bought two cakes, one for herself and one for Kang Le and Yin'er to eat.
Qingzhi is very happy, there are a total of eight cakes, one was used for research, the Kang family bought three, as long as the remaining four pieces on the plate are sold today, it will be considered a success!
Kang Le's aunt and mother chatted in Hu at the counter, and Qingzhi found that Yin'er could also speak Zhou Mandarin, so she squatted down to chat with the two children.
"Sister Qingzhi, is this cake only available in Layue? I haven't seen it before. ”
There are different dim sum in each solar term in the Zhou Kingdom, there are Qingtuan in spring, plum cake in summer, chrysanthemum cake in autumn, and rice cake in winter, not to mention Chongyang cake, Mid-Autumn moon cake and the like.
"No, I can do it every day. But ......" Aoeda suddenly thought of one thing: "On your birthday, you can make the largest and roundest one, called a birthday cake." ”
"A whole?!" Kang Le and Yin'er were stunned.
"Yes, and if your mother sells me milk cheaply, I can also use delicious cream to make flowers on it."
After chatting for a while, Qingzhi said that it was time to go out and continue to sell, Kang Le and Yin'er followed her, and met acquaintances on the way, and the two children sometimes introduced cakes to people in Hu language, and they were even more excited when they met children.
After a while, Qingzhi's cake was sold out.
Many of the Hu people in Todaiji Temple are engaged in horses, furs, and jewelry, as well as liquor stores and beverage shops, and they are relatively wealthy and love to eat food made from dairy products, so cakes are very popular.
Since then, Qingzhi has been selling cakes at Todaiji Temple, and in the next few days, the more and more they baked, they were too busy, and they sold them with Ji Xiyun, and the supply exceeded the demand.
After selling for a while, the business is getting better and better, Qingzhi and Ji Xiyun need to get up and start baking after three watches, and after it is cooled, it is good to box it and take it to Todaiji Temple to sell, and the surrounding neighborhoods see that it sells well, and sometimes they come to buy a little to taste, and the eyebrow crisp is still made.
Although it was hard, the dim sum shop seemed to be revitalized unconsciously.
On this day, it was the third watch, and Xiyun complained: "It's all else, getting up early is really the most uncomfortable!" Qingzhi, why did you wake up at the end of the day? Not in bed love? ”
Qingzhi also thinks it's quite strange, could it be the biological clock memory of the original body?
It wasn't long before Qingzhi had an idea and asked the carpenter and blacksmith to help them make a cake cart, which was actually a large wooden box with several layers of drawers, wheels underneath, and handles to push.
In this way, it is much more convenient, and Xiyun praised Qingzhi for being smart again and again, and praised it for several days.
Qingzhi is also quite strange, he didn't have any talent in design and creation before the crossing, but he was able to come up with the idea of a cake car, witty!
On this day, Qingzhi and Xiyun took turns pushing the cake cart to Todai Temple, and some pedestrians along the way already knew the cakes sold inside, and they would also come to buy some, and when they arrived at Todai Temple, a small half of them had been sold.
Kang Le and Yin'er were playing hopscotch in front of the store, and the two of them parked their cars at the door to say hello.
Xiyun smiled and teased them: "Do you want to buy a cake today?" ”
The two children's heads shook like rattles: "Mother said no!" You can't eat it every day, it's too expensive! ”
Xiyun cut a small piece and divided it among them.
Kang Le's mother saw it and muttered a few words, Xiyun thought it was asking her not to give the child a cake, so she quickly waved her hand and apologized: "I just gave a small piece!" ”
Kang Le's mother shook her head and said something to Kang Le and Yin'er, Yin'er said, "My aunt asked you, how big is the birthday cake that Sister Qingzhi said before?" How much does it cost? ”
Children are amazing, I just mentioned it casually, and they actually remembered it and told the adults!
Qingzhi compared the size, quickly calculated the cost, and after quoting, he said to Kang Le: "If your mother gives milk for free, I can also make you a fresh cream cake." ”
Although it is troublesome, there is a lot of trouble for the Kang family this time, and it should be bothered.
"Whose birthday is it?"
"Silver's!" "Mine!" Both children answered at the same time.
Kang Le's mother nodded heavily at Qingzhi and said jerkily in Zhou Guo's dialect, 'Tomorrow! He took out a piece of broken silver and gave it to Qingzhi, and said something to Kang Le, who turned his head and went behind the curtain.
Qingzhi smiled and took the broken silver, turned to Yin'er and said, "Tomorrow I will definitely make you a big and beautiful cream cake!" ”
Yin'er was happy and excited, her face was red, but she was embarrassed.
At this time, Kang Le walked out with a bucket of fresh milk, Qingzhi took it and put it on the cake cart, and smiled at the Kang family: "I'll come back tomorrow!" ”
Kang Le and Yin'er watched the cake cart go away with longing.
