After that, the mugwort liquid in the bowl is strained through a cotton cloth, and the all-important Qingtuan rind is made.

Zheng Wan added maltose, glutinous rice flour, wheat starch and cooked oil to the bowl, mixed well with the mugwort liquid inside, and stirred into a large bowl of light green liquid.

Zhao Qingyou stood aside and watched, always feeling a little different from the Youth League he imagined, and asked suspiciously:

"Lady, how do you knead such a thing into a ball, is it not enough glutinous rice flour to prepare? It's still early, so you can go to the grain store outside and buy more for the lady. ”

Zheng Wan hurriedly stopped Zhao Qingyou's action of wanting to run to the back door, and said with a smile:

"That's what this youth league does, but now there is still a crucial step before it becomes a group. My sister wanted to know what it was, so she quickly poured out the water in the wok, and we were about to use it to stir-fry these bowls of starch water. ”

Zhao Qingyou knew that he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly walked to the stove, quickly brought the water on it, and continued to boil the bottom of the wok, waiting for Zheng Wan to use it.

Zheng Wan also saw that there was nothing superfluous in the wok, and immediately poured the contents of the bowl into the wok.

"Sizzle-"

The liquid collided with the hot walls of the wok, immediately emitting a familiar vaporizing sound.

She hurriedly shouted, "Sister, you quickly use a shovel to stir the liquid inside to prevent it from sticking to the bottom." ”

When Zhao Qingyou heard the order, he immediately picked up the shovel on the side and quickly stirred the liquid in the wok.

Zheng Wan quickly turned around and poured several other bowls of liquid into the wok, waiting for the effect of time.

Zhao Qingyou, who was in charge of the mixing, was the first to notice this change, after adding several flours to the original wormwood liquid, the color quickly became lighter, and even had a light layer of white, which did not look delicious.

However, as she kept stirring, the temperature of the firewood continued to rise, and it was evenly conducted on the wormwood liquid, the water vapor continued to transpire, and the glutinous rice flour mixed in the liquid also quickly became ripe, and the color changed from white to transparent.

As a result, the color of the mugwort liquid gradually returns to green, and it looks very good.

And Zhao Qingyou can also feel that the more she stirs, the more force she needs to use, and the things in the wok are gradually forming a ball, and every time she stirs to a place, the dough there will stick to the shovel, and she needs to pull hard to pull the shovel out of it.

Zheng Wan also saw that Zhao Qingyou was a little powerless, she quickly took the shovel in Zhao Qingyou's hand as she did just now, and said:

"I'll be in charge of the rest."

Zhao Qingyou let go of his hand and watched Zheng Wan's stirring movements.

When she finished, the dough was still a light green color, but as Zheng Wan stirred more and more, the dough inside gradually transformed into a dark green dough, which was the same color inside and out.

And in my own eyes, this magical change looks quite interesting.

Just when she was indulging in it, Zheng Wan quickly put down the shovel in her hand, took two rags from the side, pinched the ears on both sides of the wok, and took it out of the stove.

With the wok, he walked to the table behind him with the youth league inside, and with a pouring motion, he firmly buckled the youth league inside onto the board smeared with cooked oil.

"Boom!"

This sound brought Zhao Qingyou back to her senses, she turned her head to look at the steaming wok at the bottom, and hurriedly walked in the direction of Zheng Wan to help.

"Lady, be careful!"

She was greeted by Zheng Wan's sweet smile, and said with a smile: "When this large group of Qingtuan cools, we can start to make the next step." ”

Chapter 41 Salted egg yolk and meat floss

She first put the wok aside and soaked it in water, and then showed Zhao Qingyou the filling she had prepared in advance.

"Sister, you see, these are the things that my son has prepared in advance these days, which are salted egg yolks, meat floss and red bean paste. One sweet and one salty, wrapped in Qingtuan, has both the fragrance of wormwood and the taste of the filling itself. ”

"It's definitely delicious."

Zhao Qingyou took the initiative to add this sentence.

Zheng Wan also laughed out loud with satisfaction when he heard it, "Hahaha! So the next step is to ask my sister for help. ”

Zhao Qingyou's eyes kept wandering on several materials on the table, and when he heard Zheng Wan's words, he immediately asked:

"Are all these materials directly wrapped inside?"

"The red bean paste can be wrapped in it directly, but the salted egg yolk and the meat floss should be combined, and the sister will see how to do it later, just take a look."

After the two of them felt that the surface of the Qingtuan was cool, they used a kitchen knife smeared with cooked oil to divide the whole Qingtuan into smaller parts, and continued to spread it out to cool, until it was warm to the touch and not hot to the touch.

Zheng Wan didn't delay time, and after realizing that he could start wrapping the filling, he directly showed Zhao Qingyou the Qingtuan wrapped with salted egg yolk and meat floss, as for the red bean paste, there really wasn't any skill that needed to be taught.

"Sister, you see, you first rub the Qingtuan on your hands, then flatten it in the middle to form a container similar to a wok, and then spread a layer of meat floss, press it tightly on the surrounding Qingtuan, and then stuff in the salted egg yolk. Hold the bottom with one hand, pinch up slowly with the arc of the youth group with the other, and finally tighten the opening. Remove the excess and press the tightened part downwards on the cut oiled paper next to it. ”

The oiled paper was cut into square pieces of paper by her in advance, which could only be used as a pad to prevent the Youth League from sticking, and as for more requirements, she couldn't meet them.

Zhao Qingyou looked at the steps that were quite simple, nodded, and started directly.

In her opinion, this is no different from wrapping other pies, isn't it just a different material?

She smeared her hands with cooked oil, took out a part of the Qingtuan ingredients, and imitated the steps Zheng Wan had just shown to make the bulging salted egg yolk and pork floss Qingtuan.

Zheng Wan looked at Zhao Qingyou's fast hand speed, and stopped observing.

After that, both of them were immersed in the production of the Youth League, until the night began to spread, and the two of them raised their heads tiredly and stretched their bodies.

The two flavors of Qingtuan made by the two of them have been covered with two boards and dried in the yard.

Just one glance can give you a full sense of harvest, and after the two stretched, they looked at each other and smiled.

Eat a little pie you just bought, and it's the end of today's dinner.

Before Zhao Qingyou left, Zheng Wan packed up a bamboo basket, and according to the number of people in the Zhao family, prepared two Qingtuan groups with different tastes for each person, a total of twenty, which could just fill a basket, close the lid, and hand it to Zhao Qingyou.

"Sister, these are my gifts to your relatives, and I will share them with my family tomorrow."

Zhao Qingyou looked at so many and just wanted to refuse, as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Zheng Wan's eyes that could not be refused, and before he could speak, a basket was suddenly stuffed into his arms.

"Auntie can't refuse, you can't honor your elders and don't give anything at all, and Auntie has helped so much today, these are regarded as Sister's wages and benefits today."

Shocked by such continuous words, Zhao Qingyou could only clench the basket in his hand and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your thoughtfulness, and I will convey my mother's concern to Aya A-Niang."

"That's right, take it with peace of mind. If you have the opportunity, you will go to your sister's house to meet a few elders. ”

Zhao Qingyou nodded heavily, obviously taking this sentence to heart.

After Zhao Qingyou left, Zheng Wan put away all the Qingtuan on the board by herself and put them in the bamboo basket she prepared in advance.

Compared with the ordinary bamboo baskets just given to Zhao Qingyou, the appearance of these bamboo baskets is like an evolved version, the imitation is more exquisite, and the shape is more chic.

She plans to use these bamboo baskets to make her own Youth League gift boxes, and she always feels that it is a bit inconsistent with the value and audience of the Youth League if she sells them in bulk.

So, next, Zheng Wan followed the dim candle flame, sorted the cute and small youth groups according to their tastes, crossed them in the bamboo basket, and finally closed the lid, sealed it with red paper with blessings written on it, and inserted a few unique flowers next to it, so that it could attract attention from the appearance.

The next day, Zhao Qingyou went home as early as last time.

Zheng Wan slept until dawn, and after eating two youth leagues for himself, he was ready to start work.

Today, at a time when every family is destined to be unable to start a fire, she feels that it is better for her to sell things.

Thinking of this, she immediately pushed out her small cart, put the bamboo basket that was particularly freshly decorated on it and tied it tightly, and pushed the small cart to the market she was familiar with.

As soon as I opened the back door of the water prison, I felt as if my cart was being carried forward directly.

She looked up sharply to see what the situation was, and found that it was actually Wang Cheng and Li Xiang, and said with some surprise: "Today, the two Lang Jun are in charge of guarding the back door?" ”

"Hahaha! It's finally the two of us' turns. ”

Wang Cheng and Li Xiang glanced at each other and said this sentence in unison, if you feel it carefully, you can even feel a hint of treachery in the laughter.

Zheng Wan also looked at the two of them with some confusion, not understanding why they said such a thing, knowing that the festival was still working, it was not something to be happy about.

But Wang Cheng and Li Xiang didn't seem to perceive Zheng Wan's doubts, and their eyes were firmly locked on the cart they had just helped lift.

The two of them were attracted by this freshly decorated basket at a glance, and Wang Cheng couldn't contain his curiosity and asked:

"Mrs. Zheng is going to sell food today? Don't know what you're selling today? ”

"I have nothing to do, thinking that everyone will definitely not fire today, so I am going to take some youth groups to the market to see the situation."

Hearing this introduction, the two of them knew that what kind of pastry must be in the basket when they thought about it, didn't everyone eat such things during the Cold Food Festival? Just thinking about it makes me feel like it doesn't taste good in my mouth.

But thinking about it carefully, this is a dim sum made by Zheng Wan, and the two of them couldn't control their imaginations, and subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

In the end, Li Xiang noticed Zheng Wan's action of closing the door and preparing to leave, and asked with some self-defeating:

"I don't know how these youth leagues made by the lady are sold?"

"Lang Jun wants to buy it?"

Li Xiang nodded affirmatively, and there was no more sincere look in his eyes than now.

Zheng Wan couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and asked, "The two Lang Jun should be in charge of the guards of today's capital water supervisor, right?" Leave when you change the night shift? ”

"The lady is right."

"That's okay, if the two Langjun want to buy it, you can wait for the gift pack in your hand to sell out, and when you come back, just buy some scattered ones, the price is much cheaper than the gift pack in your hand."

As soon as the two of them heard that there was such a good thing, they immediately replied approvingly: "Thank you, lady." ”

"The two Lang Jun continue to guard the safety, and they will go back as soon as they go."

After speaking, with the help of the two, Zheng Wan smoothly carried his small cart down the steps and slowly walked in the direction of the market.

In fact, logically speaking, these things in her hand should be bought and sold in a more high-end market, but she still wants to go to a familiar place today to have a look, what if there are a few more guests who are waiting for her in the same place like Liu Xunjiang?

As soon as she reached the entrance, she could see that the market was no different from the previous one towards the end of the market, with very few vendors and few customers.

And the things she was selling at this time were basically some snacks, preserves and pastries, all of which were very suitable for eating today.

Then it seems that she still has quite a few competitors today.

Just as she was about to continue walking inside, a surprise voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Zheng Niangzi, you let someone find it!"

The sound was very loud, and as long as the Zheng lady was walking in the market, she turned her head to the place where the sound came from, including Zheng Wan.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Liu Xunjiang running towards her quickly, and she didn't know why she looked at the other party's eager eyes, she always felt that she had a feeling of being caught.

When Liu Xunjiang walked in front of her, she smiled wryly and said, "Lang Jun is also here today?" ”

Liu Xunjiang took a deep breath, eased the rough breath generated by his fast running, frowned, looked at Zheng Wan and said suspiciously:

"It's been a few days since the lady came here to set up a stall? Is something big going on in the family? If there is something that needs help, just say it, some small things can still help. ”
