Chapter 26: Jujube Cake
Hearing Mother Lin's question, she knew that she was worried about herself, so Lin Xia talked about what happened in the Lu family.
Hearing Lin Xia talk about that little child, Lin Mu pondered for a while and asked, "Do you like that little kid?" Although she is not biological, she always has to be her mother. ”
Lin Xia remembered An An's cute appearance, obviously smaller than Huzi, but so well-behaved and obedient, after thinking about it, he said: "I like it, An An is very sensible and cute, you will like it when you see it." ”
As for being a mother, Lin Xia said optimistically: "Sooner or later, I have to be a mother, and it's not bad to adapt in advance." ”
Seeing that her daughter was much more sensible, Mother Lin was both relieved and sad, sad that she was about to get married soon, but seeing her daughter's state gradually becoming cheerful and normal, she felt that she had nothing else to ask for.
After thinking about it, Mother Lin still didn't feel at ease and instructed: "Even if the relationship is good, don't mess around!" Girls always suffer more. ”
Lin Xia suddenly understood what Mother Lin said, and was a little embarrassed in an instant, but she still let Mother Lin nod her head reassuringly.
She didn't really grow up in this era, as long as she paid a little attention to Internet topics in the future, she would be popularized with knowledge, she was not a messy person, she finally lived again, she cherished this little life.
......
Lin Xia woke up early in the morning and saw the bright sky, and suddenly remembered that she had a watch to check the time.
After looking at the time, I found that it was half past six, and it was almost May, and summer was coming, and the dawn was getting earlier and earlier.
Since she's been here, she's gone to bed earlier and earlier at night when she has nothing to do, so she wakes up earlier in the morning.
Thinking about what he promised An An yesterday, Lin Xia turned over and got up.
When I went out of the room, I saw that Mother Lin had just finished washing, and I knew that she was going to go out to buy vegetables.
At this time of the morning, fresh vegetables are being delivered to the market, and there may be leftovers from yesterday that will be cheaper.
Lin Xia hurriedly asked Mother Lin to wait for her, and spent a few minutes quickly washing her face and brushing her teeth, ready to go out.
Lin Xia naturally took Lin's mother's hand, and talked about wanting to make snacks while going out with her.
When Lin Mu heard this, not only did she not stop her, but she was also a little curious.
The two stepped on the morning sun and arrived at the vegetable market, where people came and went, lively and crowded.
In this place, you can feel the vitality of the city, and even if you live poorly, everyone is trying to live.
Lin Xia followed Mother Lin to buy vegetables first, she was still thinking about what to do appropriately, at this time there were no oven tools, otherwise she could bake some biscuits and cakes, the chicken cakes she bought in the supply and marketing cooperatives before were not difficult in her opinion, but she was suffering from no tools.
In the early morning, everyone came to buy vegetables and meat, but no one came to the stall not far away, so Lin Xia made an appointment with Lin's mother and walked to the stall alone.
Only then did I find out that this was a stall selling dry goods, dried shiitake mushrooms, fungus, seaweed, red dates, kelp, etc., and many dried spices.
Lin Xia looked at the red dates, a great consummation, it was very pleasing to look at red, and she suddenly thought of what kind of dim sum she could make-red date cake!
Soft and sweet, suitable for all ages!
Although there is no milk ticket, there is malt milk essence brought by Lu Yuxiu at home, which has sugar and milk flavor, she tasted it and felt too sweet, but Huzi likes to drink it very much, and it is very good to replace milk, and there is no need to put so much sugar.
Lin Xia shouted to the salesman who was touching the fish, "Comrade, what is the price of this red date?" ”
The salesman was lazily touching the fish, and a pleasant female voice came from his ears, and he looked up at the handsome little girl standing in front of the counter, and looked at it to make people feel inexplicably good, and hurriedly replied: "Nine points a pound." "There are few people who buy dry goods, but the price is not cheap, and the advantage is that you don't need a ticket.
And for Lin Xia, even though he knew that the prices and wages were different from those of later generations, he was still shocked, this is too cheap!
No longer hesitated, Lin Xia directly weighed two catties, red dates are a good thing to replenish qi and blood.
Without hesitation in front, Lin Xia was still distressed when she paid the money, because the few small vaults were gradually decreasing, and she had no source of income.
Distressed to buy the materials, Lin Xia went directly to Lin's mother and prepared to go home together.
After arriving home, Lin Xia soaked the dried red dates so that they could be cleaned and pitted.
Mother Lin was making breakfast, and Lin Xia was next to her to use scissors to cut the red dates into small pieces, and there was no wall breaker who could only operate it manually.
This steamed jujube cake will be softer than baked, and it is not easy to get on fire, so the steaming method does not need to add a lot of oil to it, and it will not be greasy to eat.
Lin Xia melted the malt milk essence with hot water, put it aside for later use, added eggs to the crushed red dates, stirred well, and finally poured the melted wheat milk essence into the red dates, stirred together, and added some flour and starch to it.
When Mother Lin's breakfast was ready, Lin Xia added water to the pot and boiled, and the big steamer with steamed buns at home was just right.
Mother Lin watched Lin Xia work all morning, with eggs and malt cream, and couldn't help smacking her tongue in her heart, this is probably very fragrant.
The red date cake was steamed in the pot, Lin Xia didn't care, and followed Mother Lin to the living room to prepare for breakfast.
Except that Mother Lin knew that there was also a pot of food, everyone in the Lin family didn't know about it, and even Wang Yanmei didn't go to the kitchen because Huzi wetted the bed.
The crowd was eating, and it was lively and lively, when they were about to finish eating.
Suddenly, there was a sweet smell, and Huzi turned his head to look out the door as if he had smelled radar.
Everyone didn't know why, but they also smelled a sweet fragrance wafting in with the morning breeze.
Lin Xia smelled the sweet taste and a hint of red dates, so he knew that it was a red date cake.
Outside the door, "Li Shulan, what do you cook at home?" Eating meat every day is a glutton! ”
As soon as Mother Lin heard the voice of her neighbor Zhang Hongying, she hurriedly went out, and saw Zhang Hongying pulling on the wall, looking over here, Mother Lin pretended to be angry and scolded: "What are you talking nonsense? It's your family that eats meat, right? Who's going to eat here? It's so fragrant! ”
This Zhang Hongying is a big speaker, I really want her to know what to eat at home, and tomorrow this alley will be known.
Mother Lin's rule of life is that delicious food should be eaten secretly, and when it spreads, others really think that their family is having a good life, and then trouble will follow.
Zhang Hongying smelled the smell, it was still sweet, but when the wind blew, she really couldn't tell where it came from, so she went down from the wall stupidly.
Seeing that breakfast was finished, Lin Xia cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and went to the kitchen to see how the pot was going.
Mother Lin saw that Zhang Hongying was no longer looking this way, and hurriedly followed to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Lin Xia smelled the increasingly strong fragrance, and carefully opened the lid of the pot.
When the fog cleared, he saw the brown sugar color of the red date cake in the pot, Lin Xia picked up the chopsticks and poked a hole, and knew that the steaming was done when he saw that there was no wet batter.
Lin Xia picked up a clean kitchen knife and began to cut it into pieces, saw Mother Lin who was watching from the side, picked up a corner and handed it to Mother Lin, and said, "Mom, you go and call Dad to try them." ”
