Chapter 31: Stone Mill
Cai Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "I also thought of what you said, so I plan to change the wontons in two days." ”
"Oh?" When Uncle Zhang heard this, his eyes lit up and he looked at her, "What are you going to change?" ”
"Secret~" Cai Xiaoxiao smiled mysteriously.
Uncle Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You girl! Well, uncle, I'm looking forward to your new products in the future. ”
After selling the remaining wontons, Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng packed up their stalls and went back, and on the way Zhao Kangcheng asked Cai Xiaoxiao: "Did you think of anything again?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao looked at him and said, "Isn't there a stone mill in our backyard?" I'm going to use that to make soy milk. ”
"Soy milk?" Zhao Kangcheng was puzzled.
"Yes!"
"Why do you have so many strange ideas?" Zhao Kangcheng asked curiously.
"Uh......" Cai Xiaoxiao was stunned, can she say that it is because she is a person in the future? After laughing dryly, Cai Xiaoxiao said, "Because I'm a chef, chefs are constantly innovating when cooking, you see this soy milk, I just thought about it for a long time." ”
Zhao Kangcheng didn't suspect it, touched her head, and said, "That stone mill has been useless for a long time, I don't know if it can be used?" ”
"It can definitely be used, no matter how long the stone is placed, and we still have donkeys, we don't need to push and grind when the time comes." Cai Xiaoxiao said.
Cai Xiaoxiao said again: "It just so happened that I bought black beans yesterday, which can be used to grind into black bean soy milk." ”
After returning home, after putting things away, the two came to the backyard, took a broom to sweep all the dust on the stone mill first, and began to study the stone mill.
"I'll try." Zhao Kangcheng said.
"Hmm." Cai Xiaoxiao stood aside silently, watching Zhao Kangcheng roll up his sleeves and start pushing the stone mill.
Don't look at Zhao Kangcheng as a scholar, he rarely does farm work except reading on weekdays, but he didn't expect him to be very strong, the last time he carried a wild boar cub alone, it can be seen, this time he pushed the stone mill, although he almost used all his strength, but it still did not hinder Cai Xiaoxiao's worship: "Pushed!" Xianggong, you are so amazing! ”
Zhao Kangcheng shook his head dissatisfied, and said, "It seems that it can be used, do you want to use it now?" "I silently decided in my heart that I would exercise in the future, otherwise what if Cai Xiaoxiao needs his strength one day?
Cai Xiaoxiao shook his head: "Wait for tomorrow, because you have to soak soft beans first." Now I'm going to clean the stone mill first. Saying that, Cai Xiaoxiao walked back to the kitchen and took a basin and a rag, took a basin of water, walked back to the stone mill, and began to clean the stone mill, Zhao Kangcheng saw it, took away the rag in her hand, and said: "I'll come, you go to do something else, don't you want to soak beans?" ”
"Then I'll leave it to you, Xianggong." The two have been getting along so far, Cai Xiaoxiao is no longer polite to Zhao Kangcheng, she walked back to the kitchen, took out the black beans, cleaned them first, and then poured water into the basin - it takes at least three or four hours to soak soft beans.
After soaking the beans, Cai Xiaoxiao prepared the dishes to be made at noon today, and then prepared the crab pumpkin packets to be sold tomorrow, this time she planned to make twenty.
After making the shape, put it up and wait for it to be steamed again tomorrow morning, Zhao Kangcheng also came back after cleaning the stone grinding.
The next morning, the crab pumpkin bun was still as popular as yesterday, and after going back, Cai Xiaoxiao counted all the funds in his hand now, and found that in addition to the things he bought in the town twice and the money for Zhao Wang's medical treatment, plus the money earned from selling breakfast in the past few days, Cai Xiaoxiao now still has one hundred taels in his hand.
"I forgot to look at the stone bricks when I went to town last time." Cai Xiaoxiao put the silver back in the cabinet and said to Zhao Kangcheng.
"I thought you'd already seen it." Zhao Kangcheng said that he didn't accompany Cai Xiaoxiao because he wanted to accompany Zhao Wang's doctor to see the doctor, so he didn't remind her, and he forgot about it in the past two days, after all, he thought that he would have to wait for a while to make a house.
Cai Xiaoxiao shook his head: "No." ”
Zhao Kangcheng asked her, "Then will you go to see it tomorrow?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao continued to shake her head: "No need, Xianggong, it's good to have the hot sauce I made four days ago, and it'll be all right by the fifth day, I plan to go to the town to see the shop when the time comes, do you think it's okay?" ”
"You're ready to open a store?" Zhao Kangcheng said in surprise
"Hmm!" Cai Xiaoxiao nodded, "I'm going to sell it in the town." ”
"Since you've decided, let's see when the time comes, but if you go to the town to sell it, won't you be able to sell it in the village?" Zhao Kangcheng unconditionally supports Cai Xiaoxiao as always.
"Well, yes, so I'm going to talk to the villagers then." Cai Xiaoxiao said.
Zhao Kangcheng said: "Everyone will be very unaccustomed to it. ”
"There's no way, I can only hope that everyone will be considerate when the time comes." Cai's novels.
After discussing the store, Cai Xiaoxiao was about to grind soy milk, and Zhao Kangcheng followed her.
Cai Xiaoxiao first brought the soaked beans to the stone mill, and Zhao Kangcheng went to bring the donkey over. Cai Xiaoxiao went to get a clean bucket and put it under the outlet of the stone mill, which was used to catch the ground soybean milk, and Zhao Kangcheng tied the donkey's leash to the stone mill.
Cai Xiaoxiao began to put the soaked beans from the mouth of the stone mill, and then motioned to Zhao Kangcheng to let the donkey move, but the donkey stood motionless, and Zhao Kangcheng wanted to whip the donkey but was stopped by Cai Xiaoxiao.
Cai Xiaoxin: "This donkey is now the baby of the little brother and sister, and he can't beat it!" ”
"What?" Zhao Kangcheng was surprised, "When did this donkey become their baby?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao replied: "The day before yesterday." "The day before yesterday, when Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli fed the donkey, they didn't expect to get acquainted with the donkey, and now the donkey is equivalent to the pets of these two people.
Zhao Kangcheng frowned: "Then how to get it now?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao thought about it, had a flash of inspiration, and said, "I have a way!" Fancies! ”
As soon as Zhao Kangcheng heard the idiom behind, he understood what Cai Xiaoxiao had thought of.
Cai Xiaoxiao took a stick, and there was a radish hanging in front of the stick, and then tied it to the donkey's head, and the radish hung down in front of the donkey, and the donkey wanted to eat it as soon as it saw the radish, so it finally moved!
"How?" Cai Xiaoxiao smiled proudly at Zhao Kangcheng.
Zhao Kangcheng smiled helplessly: "It's a shame that you can think of this way." He suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the donkey.
How sad it is to see that what you love to eat is right in front of you but you can't eat it.
As the donkey moved, the stone mill finally turned up, and Cai Xiaoxiao hurriedly added an appropriate amount of water to the stone mill mouth, so that the bean juice from the ground would flow out very evenly.
