Escape to farming: Fortunately, I have a portable supermarket

Chapter 95 Making Cakes

Don't look at the resemblance between this thing and rice noodles, but the taste is different from rice noodles. Anyway, Ye Lou thinks this thing is better than rice noodles.

Ye Mingqin didn't have any objections to the fact that her brother was going to "buy meat". Anyway, he just went out and took it out of his space.

But Song Zixin on the side was very reluctant after hearing Ye Lou's words, even though she knew that she didn't use her own money to buy meat.But after all, he is a child who escaped the famine, besides, he just ate pig's trotters yesterday.

Although Song Zixin didn't say anything to stop her, Ye Mingqin still saw her distressed expression.

Now that he has seen it, Ye Mingqin can no longer ignore it, not to mention that this pork does not need Ye Mingqin's money to buy it.

Even if you want to buy it with money, you can't let the little girl develop this kind of thinking. The purpose of earning money is to improve your life, so you can't save food and money.

So Ye Mingqin popularized to Song Zixin the idea that the purpose of earning money is to improve his life, and said that when the family came, he would buy some pork for them to take back.

At the same time, Lu Ci was also forced to attend the lecture, who had not responded.

Lu Ci: People do it by the side, and the words come from the sky!

In fact, Lu Ci really wanted to tell Ye Mingqin that this principle had always been their family motto, but seeing Song Zixin's way of being unable to turn around, Lu Ci still chose to be a quiet listener.

"Anyway, it's just a sentence. Making money is to make everyone's life better, not to save money. Of course, it can't be wasted!" Ye Lou summed up what his sister wanted to express in one sentence.

Waiting to eat rice noodles by myself!

Song Zixin was not as close to Ye Lou as he was to Ye Mingqin, so Song Zixin silently agreed after Ye Lou exited.

Seeing that Song Zixin agreed, Ye Lou hurriedly dragged his sister out of the house.

"It's so troublesome to eat a piece of meat, what's the point of explaining it for so long?" Ye Lou really didn't understand, he just wanted to eat a piece of meat, which was in the way, and he was still explaining for a long time.

"It's not a question of whether to eat meat or not. It's a question of ideas. I think I have to correct her ideas if I keep her with me. Otherwise, I have to explain to her every time I encounter such a thing in the future. , you bring Song Ziwen for the same reason." Ye Mingqin replied.

"Taking care of children is a hassle. I used to take care of you differently." Ye Lou was depressed.

Ye Mingqin: So how did you take me with you before?Don't you want me to help you every time you get into trouble?
The two brothers and sisters did go shopping later on, but instead of buying pork, they went to buy a few common wine jugs.

Don't ask how Ye Lou agreed to put his best wine in such an ordinary flagon.

If you ask Ye Lou, you will definitely refute you: What do you think, you just escaped from the desert, brother, it’s good to have a pot, and you want a good one?
In the end, Ye Lou was holding the jug he just bought, and Ye Mingqin was carrying a small strip of fat and thin pork belly back home.

Facts have proved that Ye Lou is indeed a person who knows how to eat, yes, he is limited to only being able to eat, but not cooking.The last rice noodle was made by Lu Ci.

According to Ye Mingqin's thinking, since his brother was the favorite from the beginning, he should do it, just in time to take the opportunity to practice his cooking skills.

But how could Ye Lou know how to cook? It would be good if he didn't fry the kitchen. In the end, Lu Ci volunteered to show everyone his skills.

"It's delicious, it's delicious!" Ye Louchi's nose was sweating, and he even spoke while fishing for rice noodles.

The taste is really good, and this rice is still brown rice. If it is made with good rice, it will taste better.

"It's just that the pepper has no taste, otherwise it tastes better!" Ye Lou said suddenly.

Song Zixin and Lu Ci didn't hear Ye Lou's voice, but Ye Mingqin did. Her brother disliked the lack of peppers, but this kind of peppers should be on the agenda.

After all, there are only two good planting times, spring and summer. Spring has not caught up, and summer is running out.

Ye Mingqin plans to wait until the weather starts to get cold before launching a large amount of chili peppers. It will be cold at that time, and the chili peppers will warm your heart after eating, and the response will definitely be good.

Besides, it will be a few months before the cold weather. Ye Mingqin is confident that he can earn enough money to build the building in these few months. By then, it will be more convenient to add one or two floors to the shop. After all, you can't wait for the snow to still make people stay in the yard, right?

But these are all plans for the future, and everything is kept simple now, no, I went to bed early to save money for candles.

The next day, around noon, people came from the family, Ma Xuanyi and Song Ziwen. In addition to the first batch of wheat flour just ground by the family, there were also some vegetables grown by the family on the carriage.

"Here, this is Lu Ci, and he will be a member of our family from now on."

After removing all the things on the carriage and putting them in place, Ye Lou introduced Lu Ci to the two of them, but did not mention a series of details about Lu Ci's arrival here.

After hearing Ye Lou's words, Lu Ci immediately bowed to Ma Xuanyi and Song Ziwen.

Lu Ci's big move surprised Ma Xuanyi and Song Ziwen on the opposite side, brother (brother), we don't need such a big fight!
Ye Lou introduced Lu Ci's situation in detail after seeing this.

"The child has a problem with his throat. Like us, he escaped from the south. He is the only one left in the family. He was tricked by a scum into doing a white job, and we rescued him the day before yesterday."

"By the way, he is 15 years old this year, will he hear from his brother in the future?"

Ye Lou's last words were directed at his little apprentice, and he gave his little apprentice a slap while talking, don't think he didn't see this kid has been staring at Lu Ci since he came in, and he didn't know what he was thinking what.

"Got it!" Song Ziwen, who was beaten, hid aside with his head in his arms, his tone full of dissatisfaction with his master's behavior.

But what Ye Lou didn't know was that Song Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief after listening to him explain Lu Ci's origin.

Who knows how frightened he was when he came in and saw a boy who was about his own age. He was trying to make up his mind that his master found a new apprentice because he thought he was too stupid, and then kicked himself and his sister out of the house. The screen is gone.

But now that the explanation is clear, it will be fine. Look at this young man named Lu Ci, who is more pitiful than himself and his sister. Not only has he lost his family, but he can’t speak. can speak.

What's even more tragic is that this Lu Ci was tricked into working as a labor force for so long. He saw that Lu Ci still had scars on his body, so he must have been beaten a lot.

Comparing it with myself and my younger sister, although it was miserable when I lost my parents, I met Sister Ye and the others later on. Although they were still fleeing famine after taking them away, they were indeed treated as family members by others.

After thinking about all this, Song Ziwen swore secretly that he would take good care of Lu Ci. Although Lu Ci was older than him, he came first.

Then I can be regarded as Lu Ci's senior in some respects, so I will definitely help Lu Ci integrate into this big family as soon as possible.

Ye Lou over there didn't know that his little apprentice had already thought about so many things in his heart, and now he was inviting the two of them into the house to eat the rice noodles that Lu Ci made yesterday.

The pork brought back last night was not eaten all at once, but was made into meat sauce by Ye Mingqin.

Ma Xuanyi and Song Ziwen ate a lot of fish and meat during this period, but it was the first time they ate pork, so they didn't know whether it was because the rice noodles were delicious or the pork sauce was delicious. They both ate two large bowls of rice noodles.

The people inside were eating happily, and Zhuifeng and Xiaobaize outside under the crabapple tree were also chatting happily.

A certain wolf: Thank you Dahei for bringing so much flour.

A certain horse: You have worked hard too, Lao Bai. Last time you were injured, I didn’t have time to give you a good condolences. How do you feel now?

A certain wolf: Don't worry, they are all minor injuries, not worth mentioning!

A certain horse: How come, we are good brothers, it is only right and proper to care about you, but what kind of medicine is this for you, I remember you have a good sense of smell, it shouldn't be!
A certain wolf remembered some not-so-good memories, and immediately regretted why he had to chat with this mindless horse here.

So a certain wolf: Dahei, you must be thirsty after walking such a long distance. I'll get you some water, and then he got up from the ground and ran into the kitchen.

Chasing the wind looked at the water basin that Ye Mingqin had put under the tree and the water it was filled with, and also looked at the voice of Xiao Baize who didn't turn his head, and thought: You, bring me water?Take it with your mouth?
"Why did you come in? Haven't you eaten?" Ye Lou said immediately when he saw Xiaobaize sneaking in quietly. He didn't have the habit of having livestock eat behind people, so they hadn't opened yet. Before eating, my sister sent over the food of one wolf and one horse.

Xiaobaize: What's the matter with you idiot?

"Hey? Are you looking for a draw?" Ye Lou was aroused when he saw Xiao Bai Ze's eyes looking at a fool.

Xiaobaize: Just look at you, why are you looking at you?Fool!
"Come on, let's eat your food, Bai Ze stay well and don't run around." Ye Mingqin said, one person and one wolf immediately turned off the fire at the same time.

Ye Lou continued to eat his rice noodles with his head down, while Xiao Baize went to Ye Mingqin's feet and lay down in desperation.

Ye Lou finished eating the rice noodles early at the gesture of his sister, and then went out with his sister on his back, and when he came back, there was a large piece of pork in the basket.

"Buy these first for the family to taste, and buy more after the first batch of cakes are sold out, we can't let everyone eat fish all the time!" Ye Mingqin explained in Ma Xuanyi's puzzled eyes. A few words.

Afterwards, Ye Mingqin handed over the paper model made by himself and Song Zixin to Ma Xuanyi, and then took a few pieces of iron from the storeroom and put them in the carriage. He didn't dare to put more, because he needed to put rice noodles , The rice noodles have to be soaked in water.

I'm afraid that after a while, the wind will not be able to pull it. After all, there is only one animal that can only pull things in a large family. It will be bad if it is exhausted.

Although the amount of rice that Ye Lou and Lu Ci moved back was not evenly divided between each person, there was still a lot in total, so Lu Ci took Ye Mingqin and the three of them to do it all morning, before all the brown rice was collected. into rice noodles.

Originally, Lu Ci dried and preserved the rice noodles. After all, it is hot now, and it will be easily spoiled if left for a long time, but it has just been done, and it has not had time to dry. Now it is all soaked in a basin with cool well water.

Now that Ma Xuanyi and the others are here, there is no need to dry it for the time being, and let them take it back to dry it, just because the area here is small and inconvenient.

Of course, the rice noodles are not finished, after all, we still have to eat at home.

Before Ma Xuanyi left, he told Ye Mingqin and the others that he would deliver the second batch of flour in a few days, and then drove away with Song Ziwen in the carriage.

Xiaobaize: Goodbye Dahei, come to play often!
Feel the chasing wind of the weight of the carriage: Do you think I want to talk to you?

"Oh, let's take action, family members!" Ye Lou had already planned to show his talents.

His response was his own sister's slap.

"Hey, girls and boys, let's act!" Ye Lou said.

But this time before Ye Mingqin gave him a slap, he realized that something was wrong, why did he sound like a prostitute in a brothel!

Sure enough, as soon as Ye Lou turned his head, he saw the speechless expression of his sister, and the incredulous expressions of Song Zixin and Lu Ci next to him.

Although Song Zixin and Lu Ci were young, they had never killed a pig but had seen a pig run!

Ye Mingqin didn't want to make any more comments this time, so he took Lu Ci and Song Zixin into the kitchen.

Now that the main ingredients were available, Ye Mingqin began to teach the other three people how to make cakes.

Ye Lou also took out the eggbeater that he had been tinkering with for two days, and mysteriously told Song Zixin and Lu Ci that it was a good thing he tinkered with, and he only made two of them. Think about it.

The two children looked at the automatic rotating egg beater with surprise in their eyes, thinking that this is a good thing, and they can't tell it, so they promised again and again.

Ye Mingqin took out the eggs and sugar that he had prepared before, and then concealed for Song Zixin and Lu Ci how to beat the eggs into paste.

After the two of them got started, she went to take a closer look at Song Lai's flour at home.

The method of grinding flour was taught by Ye Lou. It is ground with an improved stone mill. Although it is not as good as the one in Ye Mingqin's supermarket that is ground with modern machines, it is still considered fine in the current market. That's great.

Ye Mingqin fetched flour for Song Zixin and Lu Ci according to the amount of eggs they stirred, and then carefully explained the amount of eggs and flour to them.

Because of the blessing of the electric egg beater, the production process went very smoothly, and soon came to the step of baking the cake.

Ye Mingqin ordered Ye Lou to finish the oven a long time ago. After the cake was put in, Ye Mingqin took out an hourglass that her brother had refitted a long time ago, and told the two of them to take the cake out after the hourglass finished five times. come out.

Because he was worried that Song Zixin and Lu Ci would not be able to master the dosage when they first started, Ye Mingqin prepared containers for them with horizontal lines engraved, so as to ensure that the dosage ratio is the same every time.

In addition, Ye Mingqin had already told them how to use these tools when they were preparing for the work.

After explaining all this, Ye Mingqin took his brother out of the house.
