"You."

"I, no, no, I'm not going to do business. You'd better find someone else! Mother won't trouble you. Aunt Zhou hurriedly waved her hand and rejected Chun Tao.

"But... You're alone... At home... I... I'm worried. In fact, Chun Tao also knew that Aunt Zhou was not suitable for business, and if she took her with her, she might be accused by Zhou Kuiruo. However, compared to these spring peaches, she was even more reluctant to let Aunt Zhou stay alone.

No matter how cold and arrogant a person is, he wants to be accompanied, not to mention that Aunt Zhou is just a gentle and weak woman.

"My mother is used to being alone, it's better for you to find them to help you in March, and young people are also lively together."

Forget it, I'll ask Zhou Kuiruo about this! If he doesn't agree, no matter how well I plan, it's useless. "Then I... Ask... Let's be a match! ”

When Aunt Zhou heard this, she smiled with satisfaction. "Hmmm! When making a decision, you husband and wife will have to discuss and discuss, and this day will get better and better. ”

"Hmm!"

With the idea of setting up a stall, Chun Tao didn't go to March to say that he was going up the mountain, but went to the stove room to try to make cool skin.

In this era, there were already peppers, and modern vegetables are basically available here, except for tomatoes, onions, and cauliflower.

A small bowl of flour, add a pinch of salt, add water and knead into a smooth dough, then cover with a damp cloth, and let rise for half an hour, which is the time for a stick of incense.

Chun Tao deliberately walked around in front of Aunt Zhou. "What's wrong again?" Aunt Zhou glanced at Chun Tao, and the needle in her hand didn't stop.

It's so powerful, won't it be pierced? "I... I won't... See... Look at the hour, so ...... A stick of incense is... How long is it? ”

"It's... How long... In this way, my mother will help you remember, and call you after a stick of incense. "Aunt Zhou really didn't know how to explain how long a stick of incense lasted, so she had to act as a timer.

"Good!" To achieve the goal, Chun Tao turned around and wanted to leave, took two steps and turned back. "At home... Yes... Is there a chili pepper? ”

"Neither Quill nor I eat spicy food."

Meaning no. "What about vinegar?"

Shook his head. "Where's the ginger?" Shook his head. "Where's the peppercorns?" Shook his head. "Where's the soy sauce?" Still shaking his head. "Where's the vegetarian oil?" Shake your head again!

"What about garlic!" Chun Tao is no longer hopeful.

"This one has, I'll find it for you."

Finally one! That's not right! Even if there is garlic, there is no other way to eat it! Is it difficult to eat garlic and cold skin?

Holding four or five cloves of garlic, Spring Peach is really full of mixed feelings. Ay! Regardless, I'm still a little closer to success.

After a stick of incense, Chun Tao washes the dough in a large bowl, washes it seven or eight times in a narrow bowl, and when the water slowly begins to become clear, don't wash it anymore, leaving a small piece of gluten, and then it can be eaten when it will be steamed.

Pack the batter water in a clean, oil-free jar. Use a steaming cloth to filter the impurities in the batter water, close the lid to prevent dust from entering, and let it stand for four or five hours.

Chun Tao squinted at the blue sky, but she couldn't tell what time it was, so she had to ask Aunt Zhou: "Now... Is it noon? ”

"Not yet! It was almost noon. "Aunt Zhou put down the needle and thread and drove the spring peach out of the stove." You help me bring the sewing kit to the house, and I'll make lunch. ”

"I... I'll do it! It's too hot. ”

"You've been busy for half a day, go and rest. Let's go! "Aunt Zhou has already snatched the apron.

Chun Tao stood at the door of the stove room and refused to leave. "Mother is so useless in your eyes! I can't cook rice, or do you hate that I don't cook well? ”

"No... No. Chun Tao could only obediently put the sewing box in the house, and then took the fan into the stove room.

Aunt Zhou frowned when she saw Chun Tao coming in, she quickly picked up the fan and said, "I'll play the fan, no... Do not cook rice. ”

"You! Let you rest is not a good rest. Chun Tao pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled slightly, and Aunt Zhou couldn't give up her heart to talk about her, so she let her fan the wind on the side.

After about two hours, Chun Tao poured out the water on the batter water, and stirred the thick batter water below. The tools used to steam the cool skin are the steamer and the steaming cloth, this steamer is still very new, it is estimated that it was bought to steam meat on the day of marriage, so it is particularly large, and after steaming three or four times, the batter water will be used up.

Because there is no vegetarian oil, the taste of lard is too strong, and it will solidify, so Chun Tao has to pass the steamed cool skin through the well water, so that it will not stick together for the time being, but I don't know if it will have diarrhea!

I actually succeeded in the first attempt? After tasting the cut cold skin, Chun Tao found that it was even stronger than what she had made in modern times.

There are a total of four pieces of cool skin, and Chun Tao left one for his own family to eat, two for March's family, and the last one for Lamei. Cut all four pieces of cold skin and put them in a bowl.

"Going out?" Chun Tao really couldn't call Aunt Zhou a mother, so she dangled in front of her every time to attract her attention.

"Hmm!"

"Looking for March?" Zhou Danian thought she was going to March to talk about going up the mountain.

"Hmm!"

"Then go! Don't play for too long, and don't disturb people by eating. ”

"Good!" Chun Tao took two pieces of cloth and wrapped the bowl, carried it and went out, yes, the Zhou family did not have a basket.

Chun Tao walked quickly, and Aunt Zhou saw what she was holding in a trance. "What is this kid holding! My own house is still sneaky. After saying that, he smiled dotingly and shook his head.

"March." Pushing open the door of March's house, Chun Tao walked in directly. The doors to all the rooms were found open.

March sat listlessly in the room, and Lamei was there. "You're here?" Lamei shook her fan and replied weakly.

"What's wrong with you?" Chun Tao put the cloth bag on the table and poured a bowl of water to drink.

March looked at Chun Tao's complacent appearance, which was very strange. "Aren't you hot?"

"It's not hot!" That's right! How can I not feel the heat on these dog days!

"Not hot? Are you sick? March reached out and touched Chun Tao's forehead.

"Wow! It's cold. He grabbed Chun Tao's hand again and rubbed it on his face, "It's cold and cold, it's so comfortable!" ”

"Let go, let go. You're sick! Weird. Chun Tao doesn't like people touching her, even good friends will feel awkward.

"You're weird! On a hot day, you don't know the heat yet. "It's hot, and March has a bigger temper.

Chun Tao didn't bother to argue with her, and opened the cool skin she brought. "I've brought you something to eat."

"If you don't eat it, I don't want to eat even if there are delicacies of the mountains and seas in front of me now." March fell on the bamboo mat, fanning the fan, looking like a big man.

"Okay!" Too lazy to bother with March, Chun Tao asked, "Are there any chili peppers, vinegar, and garlic in the stove?" ”

"Find out for yourself! You're talking about these in the cupboard where the dishes are kept. "March didn't mean to get up to help find it at all, anyway, Chun Tao had been at March's house for a while, and the location of the furniture was basically known.

"Good!" Chun Tao just wanted to go out and was dragged by October in the corner of his clothes.

"Sister Chuntao, do you want me to help you?" October looked at her with big eyes, and suddenly seemed to see another little girl who didn't like to talk.

"Okay." After getting Chun Tao's consent in October, she jumped to the stove room, Chun Tao looked at her back and felt a little palpitations inexplicably, and then Chun Tao followed after relieving her mood.

"Good!"

March looked at October who led Chun Tao to the stove room and complained a few words, "On such a hot day, even if she makes it, she probably won't be able to eat it." ”

"That's right, this little sister! It's just too stupid. September also learned to be gentle with the tone of an adult.

When I arrived at the stove room, October was already taking the things Chun Tao said, and saw Chun Tao come in and said, "Sister Chun Tao, can you give me something to eat first?" ”

"Yes." October gets the assurance of Chun Momo, and happily shows six teeth at her.

It turns out that October is losing teeth! No wonder it feels a little strange when she speaks.

"You're... Midday... Not full? "The front teeth are missing, so eating like this should be slow!

October was very aggrieved and said: "Yes! I can't eat when my teeth fall out, and I was laughed at by my sister, hum~"

Chun Tao looked at October's pouting and smiled slightly, pointed to the cucumber in the vegetable basket and asked, "This, I can... Cut it in half? ”

"Yes!" October picked up the cucumber and handed it to Spring Peach.

Spring peach cut the cucumber into thin strips and mash the garlic into a puree. "Spicy?" Spring peach asked October.

"A little bit, my mother said that I ate too much and was angry."

Because of the restrictions on seasonings, Chun Tao didn't dare to guarantee whether this cold skin was good or not, so he took a small bowl and handed it to October. "Is it delicious?"

October held the bowl with something in his mouth, and did not dare to speak, for fear that something would leak out of his front teeth, so he swallowed it and said: "It's delicious, it's cold, it's sour and spicy." Moreover, it is not difficult to bite. ”

"Sister Chun Tao, you are so powerful!" October's little face was full of adoration.

Looking at October's feast, Chun Tao suddenly had an idea.
