Chapter 37: Trial Opening (1)
"Can you turn around?"
Chun Tao took a deep breath and slowly turned around, lowered her head, and did not speak.
Chun Tao's behavior was a silent protest in Zhou Kuiruo's eyes, supporting his forehead with his right hand and rubbing it, wanting to relieve the headache.
The mouth of the cannibal is short, and the hand of the taker is short. Chun Tao didn't expect Zhou Kuiruo to apologize, anyway, she had already expressed her dissatisfaction, and she didn't care what his attitude was. What she cares about now is the stall tomorrow.
But it was too difficult for her to take the initiative to provoke a topic after she got angry. So when Zhou Kuiruo was talking to her, she kept thinking about how to say it safely.
"I... I think... Cool skin I... We're not selling... Let... Let Erzhu Daddy sell... Sell it! ”
Chun Tao didn't mention the things in the daytime, and Zhou Kuiruo didn't want to deliberately mention it, so he followed Chun Tao's words and asked, "Let him sell?" And then you pay dividends? ”
"Hmmm! After all... The batter has been... It's ready. Chun Tao originally wanted to give up, but when she came back and saw a large vat of batter in the stove, she couldn't waste it. Thinking about it, the only way to let Erzhu's father buy it on his behalf, and then the two of them share dividends is the best.
"And how are you going to divide it?"
"Twenty-eight... How much I... He... He less, the other... Also... Also in... He sells that. This is what Chun Tao thought of when he decided to sell cold skin at Erzhu Dad's noodle stall, so that even if someone wants to eat fresh, there is a place, and he can rely on Erzhu Dad's customers to start first.
"You're going to affect his business." Zhou Kuiruo didn't agree with this idea, of course Chun Tao also thought of this, and also thought of a way to persuade him.
"Just... Just two days... And... I... I can give him... One... One... Formulation. ”
"Recipe? What a recipe. ”
"Pickled duck eggs." The duck eggs made by Erzhu's father are very idle and take a long time. The formula that Chun Tao said is actually a very common method used in modern times.
"Aren't all salted duck eggs the same? Could it be that you taste better? ”
"Hmmm! Still... And faster. ”
If that's the case, it seems that he won't lose either. Then you write down the method, and I'll give it to him tomorrow. ”
"Hmm!" Zhou Kuiruo left the desk and gave up his place to Chun Tao. Chun Tao sat down, picked up the brush and dipped it in the polished ink.
————————————————————————————————
A simple and quick way to marinate duck eggs. Twenty days is fine, and about forty days is the best.
Wash the duck eggs, dry them, dry them for a while, and then soak them in white wine...
————————————————————————————————
How could these two minutes be expressed in ancient times! Chun Tao put down the pen in his hand and looked up at Zhou Kuiruo.
"How?"
"I... I do not know... How... How to write. Nowadays, people have never learned Arabic numerals, nor are they in the habit of counting, and she really doesn't know how to explain them for a minute or two.
"Then you'll do it!"
"Yes!"
"Then you can teach her tomorrow!"
"Okay." Chun Tao stood up from the chair and gave way to Zhou Kuiruo.
"No, you turn off the lights!" Zhou Kuiruo took off his shoes and socks and lay on the bed, although Chun Tao didn't understand why he went to bed so early today, he still obediently turned off the lights.
Because I went to bed early last night, and Chun Tao has been worried about not having enough time, I didn't sleep very well. After hearing the fourth watch, I lay down for a while, and before the chickens crowed, Chun Tao got up.
Chun Tao carefully walked out of the room with her still somewhat drowsy head, entered the stove room, washed the pot first, and then lit the fire.
First, put the peas in the pot and steam, and when the peas are steaming in the pot, Chun Tao pours out the precipitated water from the jar containing the batter. After pouring the water, stir the batter in the jar with a spoon.
The peas are not steamed so quickly, so the spring peach washes the rice, soaks it first, and then it will be easier to cook, then the bean sprouts are washed and drained, and the cucumbers are washed and shredded.
When the cucumber of the spring peach was about to be cut, Zhou Kuiruo opened the door and came out of the house. After washing up, I went into the stove room, "Is there anything I can help with?" ”
"I... Did I make a noise with you? "The typical answer is not what is asked.
"No, don't worry! You can't make a fuss. ”
Could it be that he got up so early to help me? Think too much!
Chun Tao was stunned for a while and didn't speak, Zhou Kuiruo glanced around the stove room and saw the incense lit by Chun Tao, and the result was that when Chun Tao opened his mouth to speak, he also spoke, and overshadowed Chun Tao. "That..."
"What are you lighting incense for?"
Chun Tao didn't care that he didn't listen to himself, picked up the knife and continued to cut his own cucumbers. "Count... Timed. ”
"You don't know how to look at the time?" Zhou Kuiruo was a little surprised, he probably didn't expect that someone wouldn't even know how to estimate the time, after all, even children can do this kind of thing.
Didn't you say to help? I think you're here to complain! Let him work and not speak! "Can you help me... Increase... Chai? ”
Chun Tao was cutting things, it was not very convenient to add firewood, and he didn't want Zhou Kuiruo to continue to complain about himself, so he arranged a task for him.
Zhou Kuiruo originally planned to come to help, so he sat in front of the stove without saying a word and helped light the fire.
With someone to help light the fire, Chun Tao also saved some trouble.
After a stick of incense, the peas are almost ready. Zhou Kuiruo helped bring the peas out of the pot, and then added some water to the pot, and after boiling, you can steam the cold skin.
Chun Tao told Zhou Kuiruo how to steam the cold skin, and then went to grind the peas. Because the amount was a bit large, Chun Tao first smashed it with a rolling pin, and then took it out part by part and rolled it with a rolling pin to grind it a little more finely. Finally, it is necessary to use a steaming cloth to filter it so that the finished product is not too rough.
"Are you alright?" Zhou Kuiruo steamed all the cold skins, and the spring peaches were still crushing the peas.
"It's coming... You... You've got it? ”
"Hmmm! I got it done, and I also brushed it with vegetable oil. Anything else to get? Zhou Kuiruo frowned and looked at Chun Tao, clearly knowing that it was too late for her to finish this and then do other things.
"Also... Also steam... Steamed rice. Zhou Kuiruo followed Chun Tao's hand and saw the wooden barrel on the ground on the side.
Zhou Kuiruo looked at the rice that had been soaked inside, and hugged the pot directly.
"I'll do it!" Chun Tao was very slow because of the problem of hand injury, and Zhou Kuiruo really couldn't stand it, so he started it himself.
Chun Tao was also afraid of delaying time, so she didn't be polite to Zhou Kuiruo.
The two of them hurried and hurried, and finally got it done when they came to the door in September and October.
"Sister Chun Tao, we're here." Aunt Zhou had already gotten up, so she helped open the door.
Aunt Zhou gently touched October's head and said, "Have you eaten?" ”
"We've eaten, what about Sister Chun Tao?" October shook his head and looked for the spring peach.
