Chapter 142: Come and pay for the food
In the late autumn morning, there is already a hint of coolness, and this is the best time to plant fruit trees.
It was Zhu shopkeeper who came to send fruit saplings to introduce, before Liu Yifan asked around where there were fruit saplings for sale, but there was no news, and then Zhu shopkeeper knew about it, so he took over the matter.
Now the business of Zhu Shopkeeper Restaurant is very prosperous, sauerkraut fish and various bean sprout series dishes are selling very hot, and he also knows that Luo Ying still has a magic weapon in his hand, and he also wants to sell it to them through this matter.
The fruit tree seedlings cost a total of 500 wen, 60 fruit tree seedlings, this person is quite honest in business, the fruit seedlings are free of pests, and the root system is complete.
"Eldest sister, what kind of fruit saplings are they?" Stone asked happily.
"Jujube trees, apricots, loquats, cherries, oranges." Luo Ying said with a smile.
"Then our family will have fruit to eat!" Liu Yixin was overjoyed.
"Our family has more fruits and vegetables than Dani's!"
"If you want to eat the fruit, hurry up and dig a pit with the old man to plant the fruit tree! In three years, you will be able to eat the fruit you have grown! ”
Luo Ying shouted, and the younger brothers and sisters acted quickly one by one.
"I'll go too!" The two brothers also hurried to help.
There are very few people with fruit trees in the village, a fruit seedling costs ten yuan, it takes three years to bear fruit, and it is not 100% alive, so few people plant, because there are few, so it is more precious, and it makes people more greedy.
Now that my family wants to plant so many fruit trees, they are very happy, carrying water, digging pits, and picking artificial fertilizer, all of them are very busy.
Luo Ying and Liu Yifan didn't go to join in the fun, and the two of them were in the kitchen studying the oven they brought back yesterday afternoon.
Because there was no electricity in this era, Luo Ying asked Liu Yifan to customize the mini oven to rely on the fire to raise the temperature and control the temperature, and the same was true for the ancient Europeans to bake bread.
Luo Ying actually wanted to make cakes to eat, but this kind of oven, Luo Ying used it for the first time, and she was afraid that the temperature would not be well controlled, so she thought about making sesame crispy and peach crisp first, and tried the temperature.
The thin and crispy batter of sesame seeds is simple to make, that is, water, sugar, wheat flour and sesame seeds, and three whole eggs, after the sugar is stirred in the water, add flour and sesame seeds and mix well, the water can be replaced with egg whites, but the cost is relatively high, and there will be a lot of egg yolks left, which is a bit wasteful, so Luo Ying did not use egg whites, and the water will be thinner, and it will be easy to flow away and not form when squeezed into the plate, so after squeezing in the plate, it needs to be baked in the oven immediately.
This oven baking tray is very small, only two plates can be baked at a time, and the finished product is one or two at a time.
You really can't leave people to make this thing, because there is no non-stick baking tray, and the finished product of each plate must be replaced in a clean wooden tray as soon as it comes out of the oven, otherwise it will stick to the plate, and it will not be able to pick it, and it will break if it is moved.
Luo Ying and Liu Yifan have been doing this all morning, but fortunately, after trying several plates, the temperature and time are better mastered, and the things they make are full of color and flavor.
"It smells so good!"
The gluttonous stone couldn't help it for a long time, and after the fruit tree was planted, he ran to the kitchen as soon as possible.
"Have you washed your hands?" Luo Ying said, "I applied manure over there just now. ”
"Washed, really washed! You see! After speaking, he stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Luo Ying.
Luo Ying roared towards the backyard: "Yiming, Xin'er, Shaojie, Xiaoyu, if you don't come out again, the biscuits will be eaten by a hot stone!" ”
"Stone, you glutton!"
"Brother Shi, you leave me a little!"
……
A swarm of bees rushed one by one, scrambling to be the first, so lively.
Seeing this, Liu Yifan said, "Your sister-in-law is working so hard, don't finish eating for a few of you." ”
At this time, Xin'er was very sensible, grabbed a piece, and fed it directly to Luo Ying: "Sister-in-law, this is for you to eat." ”
"Thank you Xin'er, Xin'er is awesome!"
"Sister-in-law, it's delicious! It's so fragrant, it's so crispy! Liu Yiming exclaimed.
"It's much better than Niu Junsheng's mung bean cake!" Man Fu said.
Luo Ying asked, "Didn't you fight with that Niu Junsheng?" What's up? Okay? ”
"Yes! Now he's good friends with us. Stone said.
Luo Ying smiled, children quarreled and fought when they were young, just like playing at home, I don't play with you today, Ming'er is good to wear a pair of pants, Luo Ying herself came over like this when she was a child.
"Sister, can I decorate it and take it to the private school tomorrow?" Stone asked.
"What's wrong? Can't get enough lunch at private school? Luo Ying asked.
Shi replied: "No, Niu Junsheng invited us to eat mung bean cake, so I want to invite him to eat cookies." ”
Luo Ying smiled and said: "Good things are to be shared with friends, you did a good job!" Pack as much as you want! There will be peach crisp in a while, and you can also pack a little. ”
Then Stone Knock ran into the room and took a piece of brown paper wrapped in some sesame seeds.
Liu Yifan saw that they were still eating biscuits with relish, so he said: "You save some stomach, you have to eat in a while, and there will be peach crisp in the afternoon!" ”
Luo Ying is kneading peach crisp noodles now, there is no butter in this era, Luo Ying replaced butter with lard, no water, handmade, pork in this era is better than modern pork, and the lard boiled out is more fragrant, Luo Ying is very confident, this peach crisp must be very crispy and fragrant.
"Yingzi, Sail Boy." Grandma Li pushed the door in with a bag of grain.
"Grandma Li, you're here, come and taste it, I made cookies today."
Luo Ying's words fell, and Liu Yixin quickly grabbed the biscuits and handed them to Grandma Li.
"Well, it's crispy, sweet, and delicious!" Grandma Li praised.
"You can bring some back for Grandpa Li and Uncle Good Luck to taste in a while." Luo Ying said, "Otherwise, a few of them will definitely be able to * light, I tell you, don't finish eating, and send some to my grandmother and the village chief in a while." ”
Grandma Li smiled and said, "It's just you, you are willing to give away such a good thing everywhere." ”
"It's not a good thing to make at home."
"You don't have a lot of candy in this thing! The most expensive sugar costs 20 copper plates, and during the Chinese New Year, it is even more expensive, which is not a good thing! ”
In this era, the sugar technology is not perfect, and the better sugar can only be bought by the people of the high family, and the average person only buys a little bit during the New Year to entertain guests.
"Grandma, what are you carrying?" Quanfu curiously opened the bag that Grandma Li carried.
Grandma Li feigned anger and said, "What else can it be? Food expenses! You stay here all day long, and when I get to dinner, I have to shout at the top of my voice, my voice is hoarse, and I won't shout anymore, you guys! Eat right here! ”
Luo Ying taught them to play backgammon before, today they are a few rest, yesterday they played very late, Quanfu Manfu did not return to home yesterday, just slept here for one night, breakfast is also eaten here, usually every meal is Grandma Li shouted in the yard with her throat, today I was lazy to shout, simply brought food over to pay for food.
When Quanfu heard this, he was overjoyed: "That's so wow!" Come and eat Sister Yingzi's dishes every day in the future! ”
"Hey, you stinky boy!"
Grandma Li was about to hit him, but Quanfu hurriedly carried the food to the kitchen and ran away.
"Grandma Li, what are you doing? Didn't you just eat two meals here! Luo Ying smiled and said, "They have a good relationship like brothers, how good!" ”
Liu Yifan got up and took it out of the corner of the kitchen and returned it, Quanfu hurriedly blocked the kitchen door and didn't let Liu Yifan go out, at this time Manfu also hurried to block it, the brothers agreed that after paying the food fee, they could come to eat every day in the open, how good Sister Yingzi's craftsmanship is!
"Now you are their home, and your own home has become their mother's home! If they are like this, they will definitely not be able to eat much in your house in the future, and you will harvest the grain, which is all flour from this year's wheat mill. ”
"It's a pity that I don't have a girl of the same age in my family, otherwise I can really get married." Luo Ying teased.
"Alright, you guys are busy! I'll go back first. ”
After sending Grandma Li away, the peach crispy noodles were also kneaded.
Luo Ying started cooking, and it was relatively simple at noon, stir-fried oil residue, shredded pork and mustard sprouts, chili fried fragrant and dry, egg soup, three dishes and one soup, the portion was very large, and it was also very good.
After eating, the younger brothers went back to the study to read and write, Liu Yixin went to play with Xiuxiu, and Zhou Damei was washing the dishes alone.
Luo Ying really can't figure it out, these younger brothers in the family don't like her, plus there is a difference between men and women, so it's impossible to play with her, since last time she said that Luo Ying is too lazy, Liu Yixin doesn't like to play with her, basically these people in the family are isolated from her, and they don't bother to talk to her, but just like that, she can live here safely!
I have to say, this person has a really big heart! It may also be the kind that doesn't stop until you reach your goal!
After the meal, Luo Ying and Liu Yifan continued to work in the kitchen.
The peach crisp is a little tired when kneading the dough in the early stage, and it is not as troublesome as the sesame seeds when baking later, but because the oven is small, the peach crisp with five catties of flour is also baked for several hours before it is all baked.
"I smell the fragrance of your house from afar, what do you do delicious?"
Seeing that it was Liu Fei who came, Zhou Damei hurriedly put down the work in her hand, tidied up her appearance, and presented Luo Ying with sesame crispy and peach crisp made today.
Liu Fei didn't answer, but bypassed her directly and took a piece from the table to eat.
Zhou Damei felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar, her face was flushed, her head was lowered, and her eyebrows and eyes were deep.
Liu Fei used to think that she was Liu Yifan's cousin, although he didn't like her, but he just avoided it, recently he went in and out of here every day, and he also knew that Zhou Damei was not likable here, and Liu Yifan and others were also reluctant to keep her, so he chose to ignore her, and replaced it with someone else's self-esteem suffered such a big blow, damn it! But Zhou Damei has no sense of frustration, but she is relenting!
Luo Ying admires her a lot, at least she has a strong ability to resist pressure, and she can go out with a cheeky face!
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many other things in her eyes, everyone might think that she was an infatuated woman, and she loved her deeply!
After Liu Fei finished eating a piece, his eyes immediately became more focused, and he smiled: "This tastes!" Gee! Yifan, you are blessed! ”
Liu Yifan grinned when he heard this, hehe, straight music!
Liu Fei glanced at him: "Look at your stupid look!" ”
"If you come, we won't send it, you take some back and give it to the village chief's grandfather to taste."
After that, Luo Ying packed peach crisp and sesame seeds in a paper bag for Liu Fei, and packed another bag for her grandmother's house.
