Chapter 87: One Knife Ten Taels

Looking at Zheng Zuqing's back running away, Da Zhuang was very puzzled: "What is Baibai?" ”

Lilac corrected his pronunciation: "What I heard was a break, like a name!" ”

Su Wanqing listened to the voices of the two and didn't want to explain, just guess it!

After locking the door of the store, the three of them went directly to the dry goods store, and when they saw Su Wanqing's shopkeeper's face, they all smiled.

"Yo, the little boss is here again, what do you need today? Dates and walnuts have not yet arrived, and they will be available in a few days. ”

Su Wanqing wanted to make some other pastries, after all, the New Year is coming, and it can be regarded as preparing New Year's goods in advance.

Originally, she was just planning to do the food thing, thinking that she would be able to go back to Baiyun Village in a day or two, but it was delayed for several days, and the Li family was afraid that she was worried.

Now that the food matter has been done, Xu Shen is not afraid of extraneous branches, so she still goes back to Baiyun Village as soon as possible.

"The walnuts and dates haven't run out yet, I need to buy some other things, I can pick them myself."

This pick is another big purchase, almost all the dried fruit preserves in the store have been bought, and the boss directly sends a car to deliver things to their doorstep.

Su Wanqing plans to try to make the most heroic cake-cutting, this thing is hungry and durable, and it is also suitable for replenishing energy in winter.

Everyone knows the legend of cutting cakes in the past, anyway, she has this mysterious love for these things, not that she must eat it in her mouth, but she is happy to watch.

Lilac really didn't know if it was worth spending money on these dried fruits, and in her opinion, none of them were better than rice and white flour.

Several times I wanted to stop it, but I was interrupted by Da Zhuang: "Sister Su has her own plans to do things, she will definitely be of great use if she buys these back, don't worry!" ”

Of course, Su Wanqing saw the interaction between the two, and she didn't bother to explain, she now felt that it was good to be messy occasionally, and she didn't have to find some reason to prevaricate, and she didn't care how others understood.

When I got home, I started to get busy, boiling syrup, and everyone used grapes to boil the authentic ones, but now I must have made it only with sucrose.

Da Zhuang watched her put sugar into the pot like no money, and felt that this thing must be super good today, and she worked much harder.

The cloves cleaned up the dried fruit preserves, and the cores had to be removed, and the three of them performed their own duties, and they were very busy.

The syrup was almost boiled, and Su Wanqing hurriedly asked Da Zhuang who was burning the fire to move all the cleaned dried fruit preserves in, and poured them into the cauldron one by one.

Then the most laborious work begins, the syrup is sticky, and the dried fruit must be mixed well.

Su Wanqing only stirred it up after a few strokes, and hurriedly let Da Zhuang come, after all, this ready-made labor force must be used.

Da Zhuang waved the big shovel laboriously, and finally mixed it before he was exhausted, Su Wanqing hurriedly moved the mold, and the clean wooden board had been washed without staining.

In order to prevent it from sticking too firmly, a layer of oil was smeared on it, and only then did the cake that had been almost successful be put in.

Evenly paved, in the end there was only pressing, in order to save trouble, simply spread a few layers of clean cloth, let Da Zhuang move a big stone to press on it.

Lilac and Da Zhuang participated in the whole process, but they didn't know why this thing was pressed up, and there were too many doubts in their hearts, and they didn't know how to ask.

Anyway, just follow what Su Wanqing said, what about the others?

It wasn't until Xu Shen came back from the Sifang Restaurant in the evening that Su Wanqing asked Da Zhuang to move the stones, and their mysterious appearance surrounded everyone.

Anyway, there is nothing bad about what Su Wanqing came out, so in order to see it clearly, she also asked Lilac to light two more lights.

Zheng Zuqing was the first to exclaim.

", you've got all the cake cut at a sky-high price, eldest sister, is there anything you can't do? If you are not convinced, you can't do it, the little brother has nothing to say, admire! ”

He was rewarded by Su Wanqing's white eyes if he didn't have a straight word, and sure enough, someone had already started to ask questions.

"What is a sky-high price cake?"

"Is that the name of this thing?"

"Does it smell so good? It's okay to eat! Can you eat it? ”

"What's new?"

Zheng Zuqing asked Da Zhuang to get a kitchen knife, pointed to the cake and said: "There was a cake seller in the bazaar, and there were customers who bought cakes, and the gold was ten taels cut with one cut, and the guests exclaimed: The price is sky-high!" ”

Su Wanqing listened to his awkward bite and chew the words, speechless!

Xu Wei exclaimed as if he believed it: "This thing costs ten taels of gold to cut with a knife?" I don't dare to eat it, and I can't afford to eat it if I sell it! ”

Su Wanqing pinched his face: "My sister doesn't charge money for what she makes, but this thing is heavy in sugar, and children can't eat too much, especially at night, one person tastes a small piece for a while." ”

Da Zhuang happened to come over with a kitchen knife, Zheng Zuqing hurriedly volunteered to cut the cake, he had seen this thing on the street, but he was not willing to buy it!

Su Wanqing helped him give the first piece to Xu Shen: "Uncle Xu, you eat and see, although this thing does not use rice and noodles, it has a strong sense of satiety, and it is still hungry when you eat a piece." ”

Xu Shen didn't like sweets, but he still took it and tasted a piece, and the solid taste was different when he took a bite.

"It's all dried fruit preserves, the cost is not low, although a knife of gold ten taels is exaggerated, but it must not be cheap, this thing is not affordable for ordinary people."

Su Wanqing naturally knew that she didn't plan to sell this thing: "I just want to make some snacks for the New Year, this thing will not be bad for a few months after it is released, you keep it to eat, I plan to go back to Baiyun Village, and I don't feel at ease when my mother is alone in the village." ”

Things in the village are already on the right track, just wait for the weather to get warmer, grab some chicken and duck seedlings and put them back, and then slowly improve.

Xu Wei chewed the cake in his mouth, and when he heard that Su Wanqing was about to leave again, he muttered: "Sister Su, can you not leave!?" ”

Xu Zhong pulled him: "Sister Su has something to do, the academy has ten days to go on vacation, let's go to Baiyun Village for the New Year!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Xu Shen, this matter always had to be nodded by his family, Xu Cheng and Xu Wei also looked at him with blank eyes.

Xu Shen coughed, and his father's majesty was finally a little bit at this time.

"It's not appropriate for us to go, right?"

Zheng Zuqing hurriedly said: "What's inappropriate, aren't we a family?" Go to all of them, and then go to the lively New Year. ”

Su Wanqing said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, as long as you are willing, there is nothing inappropriate, our two families are indeed inseparable from each other now, and I hope you don't dislike it." ”

"Don't dislike, don't dislike!"

Xu Shen hurriedly said: "If there is really a daughter like you, I can wake up laughing in my dreams, how can I be like these three stinky boys in our family, they only know how to be angry with me!" ”

Su Wanqing quickly grabbed Xu Wei's foul little hand: "Say that a piece is a piece, don't be greedy, otherwise your teeth will be broken, and after tasting them, you will quickly clean up and go to sleep." ”
