Chapter 56: Milk Cake
A total of three hundred taels, how did you get this silver? One hundred taels he was worried to death, and now he wants two hundred taels, which is an astronomical amount for his family, even the old man looked at Lian Hao helplessly, and hung his head sadly.
"I'll talk about that next time." Nianzi picked up the wine glass and saluted Master Du.
Master Du understood, knowing that it was difficult for Nianzi to take out two hundred taels to treat his injuries now, so he patted Nianzi's shoulder very understandingly, "You have skills, don't worry, earn it slowly first, and when you have money, you still have to treat this foot, after all, this is a lifelong thing." ”
"Hmm." Lian Hao nodded, grateful to Master Du for his comfort.
At night, Lian Lao Han and Lian Hao slept in the same room, and even Lao Han called hot water to Nianzi, and discussed: "Son, your foot is still cured early, I just inquired with Master Du, and his relative is the same as you, he was injured for a few months, and only used two hundred taels, if it takes a long time, the cost of treatment will be much higher, the doctor said, it takes a long time, it is difficult to treat, and the cost is difficult to estimate, I have also thought about it, should we talk to Yueniang about this?" Yueniang has a lot of ideas, or she can ......"
"No need, what ideas can Yueniang have, last time in order to buy the title deed and build a house, it wasn't his life to pick bird's nest in exchange for a place for the family, Wan Baofang's matter, Yueniang has a big opinion of me, and now I mention silver, isn't this causing pressure on Yueniang's life? Dad, I really want to keep Yueniang and live with me, I don't want her to bear too much as a woman, I can earn money, and if I can't earn money to treat my feet, I will be crippled for a lifetime, at least Yueniang will follow me without worrying about food and clothing, and I can still live with her this day. Nianzi is really afraid that if his father tells Yueniang the cost of foot treatment, Yueniang will be worried, and let a woman bear the financial pressure, which is really not what he wants as a man.
"Hey, I know, I'm just telling you, Yueniang is a good woman, and she is closer to Jin'er Xiu'er than her own, but this family is ......" Haozi was so bitter in his heart that even the old man sighed, feeling very sorry for his son.
Yueniang, Lian Hao thought, his face was full of tenderness, he would not let go of his feelings for Yueniang unless he had to.
Leng Yue swore to Jin'er, promised Jin'er not to leave, it took a lot of effort, Leng Yue coaxed Jin'er to bed, seeing Jin'er's tender face, Leng Yue looked gentle, "Child, what my mother promised you, my mother will definitely do it, and my mother will earn one hundred taels to fulfill your sensibility and filial piety." ”
said that she wanted to earn that one hundred taels of silver and complete Jin'er, but how could it be so easy to make money in this ancient world, not to mention that it was inconvenient for her to walk as a woman in ancient times, and there were only a dozen taels of silver left at home.
What's more, I haven't gone through the business, the door inside, where the source of goods comes in, I don't understand, besides, there are losses and profits in business, and it's good to make money, in case of loss, this family can't bear it, the two children in the winter have no food, and they are being collected for debts, and they are very sad about cold reading.
Sitting on the bed and thinking about it, I couldn't come up with a good idea to make money, maybe it's cold, people's calorie consumption is very large, Leng Yue feels hungry, and when I'm hungry, I can't think of anything, Leng Yue got out of bed, and there were two plates of melon seeds and peanuts on the table in the room, but Leng Yue didn't want to eat, it's very late now, and it's troublesome to go to the kitchen to give yourself a bowl of noodles, ancient times are not like modern times, turn on the lights, plug in the induction cooker, and you can give yourself a bowl of egg noodles.
No matter how lazy you are, soaking a bowl of instant noodles in boiling water can also cushion your stomach.
The more she wanted to eat, the more hungry Leng Yue felt, hungry and hungry, she remembered her favorite cream bread, pumpkin pie and other non-staple foods, thinking of these snacks, Leng Yue also tasted a piece of the mung bean cake that Leng Yue bought for Jin'er Xiu'er in the Imperial Treasure Fang store last time, and it didn't taste good, but the business of that store was very good, and there were still a lot of people who bought dim sum.
Dim sum, Leng Yue's fingers knocked on the table, hahaha, she saw a master make a point when she was in the army, the taste is simply amazing, and the materials used are also here, why don't you set up a stall to sell dim sum?
Anyway, it doesn't cost much to set up a stall.
It's pure milk, she has to take some time to see where she can get the goods, tomorrow dawn to ask the village chief, if you can't do it, you can go to Xiaofu to ask, the last time she bathed at Miss Ling'er's place, the petal bath was filled with milk.
Thinking of how to make money, Leng Yue is not hungry, and she can't wait for dawn soon, so she can collect materials and make crispy fried dim sum to set up a stall in the town to make money.
Early the next morning, Leng Yue freshened up, said hello to Jin'er, and hurriedly ran to the village chief's house.
The village chief was just about to go out, and he almost bumped into Leng Yue, who rushed in in a hurry, "What's wrong with you?" Running in such a hurry? Is there something wrong with the family? ”
"No, it's fine." Leng Yue waved his hand and gasped: "I just want the village chief to help me inquire, where can I buy pure milk?" ”
"Pure milk? What do you want that thing for? The village chief was puzzled, in addition to the little calf to drink, he also squeezed out and sold some for the rich family to take a bath, and the young man came here in a hurry to ask about it, and also wanted to learn what kind of milk bath the rich family enjoyed?
"It's useful, it's really urgent, village chief, how can it be sold?" Leng Yue pulled the village chief and asked.
"Even if you want to take a milk bath, you don't need to be in such a hurry, right?" The village chief tore off the clothes that had been pulled out of shape by Leng Yue, and said, "The cow of the old Qiutou family gave birth to a cub a few days ago, and there is milk, you go and ask him for it." ”
"Okay." Leng Yue didn't even have time to say thank you, and ran away to Lao Qiutou's house.
The village chief who was watching shook his head.
Leng Yue bought five catties of milk from Lao Qiutou, prepared the materials for making crispy frying, and began to make crispy fried milk cakes.
First of all, Leng Yue put the milk, starch and sugar into the pot and mix well, then heat it over low heat, stir it into thick and solidified, Leng Yue uses a basin to put out the milk paste, and then put it on the roof to freeze.
Half an hour later, Leng Yue cut the frozen milk cake into long strips, beat a few eggs, put some starch, rolled the cut milk cake in the egg liquid, and threw it into the roasted rapeseed oil.
"Squeak ......"
The pot exploded, and the milk cake quickly exploded to golden brown, and Leng Yue's face was full of smiles.
"Mother, it's so fragrant, what are you doing for Xiu'er?" Xiu'er came in looking for the fragrance, looked at the pot and asked.
"Dim Sum! Little slanderous cat. Leng Yue took out the milk cake in the pot and took a bowl and filled it with a piece for Xiu'er, "Taste it quickly, see if it's delicious." ”
Xiu'er took the chopsticks, took a bite gently, and shouted as soon as she ate it: "Brother, come quickly, the dim sum made by my mother is delicious." ”
"I'll try it." Wan Baofang heard that there was something to eat and ran to the front of Jin'er.
"Mother, that's what my mother made for Xiu'er." Jin'er was very afraid that Wan Baofang would pass, so she finished eating what her mother had prepared for Xiu'er, and pulled Wan Baofang to prevent her from going.
"You kid." Wan Bao opened Jin'er angrily, "If there is food at home, I can't eat it, and I am also a member of this family." ”
"Are you worthy?" Lian Hao came in from the door, and just when he heard Wan Baofang's words, his face sank directly.
This time I went out and earned five taels of silver and came back, and I was in a good mood, but as soon as I saw the woman Wan Baofang, Lian Hao wanted to kill someone.
Xiu'er heard Lian Hao's voice and ran out of the kitchen, "Daddy is back!" ”
"Xiu'er." Lian Hao opened his hand and picked up Xiu'er.
"Dad, why did you come back?" When Xiu'er thought of yesterday's incident, she felt aggrieved and complained to Lian Hao: "Dad, that bad woman stole her mother's clothes to wear, Xiu'er didn't let her, she also beat Xiu'er, beat her brother, and yesterday a mad dog came to the house and bit her mother." ”
"Your mother is hurt?" Lian Hao originally heard the previous words and wanted to settle accounts with Wan Baofang, but when he heard Xiu'er say that Yueniang was injured, he immediately put down Xiu'er and walked towards the kitchen, "Yueniang? Yueniang, where are you hurt? Let me see. ”
"Look at what, look! Not as idle as you. Leng Yue was busy frying milk puff pastry.
Lian Laohan followed behind Lian Hao, smelled the fragrance, and said to Lian Hao: "It's so fragrant, what is Yueniang doing?" ”
"Dad, I'm making a snack, and when it's ready, I'll go to town and see if this thing sells well." If Leng Yue wants to sell milk crisp well, she will get more tomorrow, and then move the firewood pot to the town to fry and sell it, so that she will make more money, and she can only try to sell it today.
"Is this for sale?" Even the old man looked at the golden fried rice cake and asked, "Why do you want to go to the town to sell this dim sum?" ”
"That's not your son's evil fate 'love debt', he refused to write a letter of resignation, the lion opened his mouth and promised to give others a hundred taels of silver, and if he doesn't make money, will there be a quiet life in this family?" Leng Yue sneered at Lian Hao.
Lian Hao was 'sarcastic' by Leng Yue, so he had to pretend to be stupid, took a bite of a milk cake, nodded while um, and gave Leng Yue a thumbs up: "This dim sum is so delicious, crispy on the outside, fresh and tender on the inside, Yueniang, how did you do it?" ”
"It's about your wool, go away!" Leng Yue kicked Lian Hao, "It's annoying to see you." ”
"Oh." Lian Hao obediently stepped back the wheelchair, squinting his eyes and laughing at Leng Yue, "Why don't I accompany you to the town." ”
Leng Yue glanced at Lian Hao, the way this man laughed, it was so good-looking, but it was good-looking, no matter how much she pleased her, she Leng Yue didn't eat him, what she hated most in Leng Yue's life was that men had caused a lot of love debts, if it weren't for Jin'er's face, she would have left last night.
"No, just let my dad accompany me, you are still the one who takes care of you at home." Leng Yue left some milk cakes for the two children to eat at home, put two catties in a clean white cloth and put them in the basket, and said to Lian Laohan: "Dad, let's go." ”
"Hey." Even the old man responded, "I'll go change my clothes." ”
He went to sell food with Yueniang, and the people who wore such dirty clothes to buy things still tasted when they saw it.
"Okay, I'll wait for you at Lao Qiutou's house." Leng Yue passed Lian Hao and walked towards the gate.
Lian Hao held his cheeks, his face was bitter, and he looked at Leng Yue's back and smiled bitterly: "Yueniang, I have no love debts, I like a woman for the first time when I am so old, it is you, you have wronged me like this, I am so wronged." ”
