Chapter 85 084
Master Zhuzi was still dubious about Shen Jiao's words, and said to himself: "Prickly pepper can kill insects? Is there such a spirit?"

Uncle Liu hurriedly said: "Didn't this girl tell you to give it a try just now, you go back and cook porridge for Zhuzi to drink according to this method, you will know if it works or not!"

"Yes, yes, I'll go back right away." Master Zhu Zi came to his senses and was about to leave, not even caring about the mutton on the ground.

When Uncle Liu saw Liushenwuzhu Master Zhuzi, he hurriedly said: "I still have some rice at home. You can ask my wife to catch some for you. I will take care of the mutton for you. You can go back with confidence!"

Master Zhuzi nodded gratefully, didn't bother to say anything, strode away, and quickly disappeared.

Uncle Liu shook his head, knelt down and gathered Master Zhu's mutton in front of his stall, and soon people came to buy mutton, most of them were asking for Uncle Liu's own fat mutton, but he tried his best to sell it to people who came. Zhu Ziye's lean mutton.

Shen Jiao pulled Ma Xinghua to look at other stalls, Ma Xinghua asked in a low voice, "Jiaojiao, can pepper really kill insects?"

"It says so in the book, but I haven't tried it." Shen Jiao replied.

Ma Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was in the book: "Then you can't go wrong, Jiaojiao, you read so many books."

Her tone was full of envy. The Ma family had extraordinary respect for scholars, which was why Ma Xinghua was able to graduate from elementary school, unlike other girls on the farm who never went to school for a day.

A girl with a primary school degree like Ma Xinghua can be said to be the number one female scholar in the local area, and there is no one out of 100 people, which is very rare.

But Ma Xinghua felt that she had learned too little, because she had heard from her third brother's letter before that all the girls in the city had gone to junior high school and high school, and even went to college. She also said that girls are no worse than boys. Let the family provide for her and Lanhua to go to school, don't be like other girls in the village who marry and have children at the age of fourteen or fifteen!
Ma Hongbing's words still carry a lot of weight in the family, which is why Ma Xinghua was able to graduate from elementary school. If it weren't for the school suspension, she might even have entered junior high school and high school.

That's why Ma Xinghua envied Shen Jiao for reading so many books, and was willing to get close to Shen Jiao. In her opinion, a cultured person is a good person, a civilized person!

If Shen Jiao knew what she was thinking, she would definitely correct her very seriously, educated people are more terrible than uneducated people when they are bad, they have too many eyes!
The three of them wandered around stall by stall, and bought some white flour, cornmeal, and other grains one after another. The things were almost ready, so Ma Xinghua said that he would go to the supply and marketing agency to buy sugar, oil, salt, etc., and the three of them walked back.

Shen Jiao suddenly stopped and walked over to one of the booths. The location of this booth was very remote, and the front of the booth was deserted. There were only a few customers, and they all left after asking a few questions. Few people.

What attracted Shen Jiao's attention was the food sold at the stall. It was a kind of dessert commonly found in Haishi alleys. After the steamed buns, the pork has thawed, not to mention how delicious it is when you bite into it, it is Shen Jiao's favorite seafood snack.

It's just that this kind of snack is rarely seen in the north, and even if there is, it is not as authentic as Haishi.

Not to mention Sanlibao Town, where there are only thick and solid mutton steamed buns, one steamed bun can fill Shen Jiao half full, and there is not even a trace of fried steamed buns.

Jiangnan snacks suddenly appeared in such a small northwest town, no wonder Shen Jiao was attracted.

The person who sells fried steamed buns is a middle-aged woman in simple and clean clothes. She is dressed no differently from the local women. She is also a double-breasted jacket covered with patches. Her face is tightly covered by a red scarf, revealing only a pair of deep eyes. .

Even though she was dressed in such a poor way, Shen Jiao could still see the difference in this woman. The most different thing was her aura, which was completely different from the women around her who looked like they were burning eggplants. She was clean and her whole body was neat , and the booth in front of her was also very refreshing, with white and tender navels lying on the panels, a pot of mixed stuffing and two small bowls beside it.

One bowl contained green chopped green onions, and the other bowl contained fried sesame seeds. There was a small stove in front of the woman, on which an iron plate was set up, and a dozen or so steamed buns were sizzlingly fried, exuding a tempting aroma.

After the steamed buns are fried, they are shoveled aside and sprinkled with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. The aroma instantly upgrades, attracting more people to watch, mostly parents with children.

"What is this? It looks really nice." Someone looked very surprised.

The middle-aged woman didn't answer, but just stretched out two fingers for comparison, then lowered her head to make steamed buns again.

"It turned out to be a mute, and the food is pretty good, but it's a little expensive. This small one costs two cents, and one can't fit my mouth!"

"That's right, you can buy a big sesame seed cake for two cents, why buy this?"

……

Most people were scared away by the price quoted by the woman, only a few couldn't bear the children's entreaties, and bought one for two cents for the children to try.

The child bit into the skin of the fried steamed bun, revealing the bright pork jelly stuffing inside. Even the adults next to him couldn't stand the aroma, and couldn't help swallowing.

"Walk, walk, this scent is deadly!"

The adults dragged the child away cursing, fearing that if they stayed there, they would no longer be able to bear the prodigal fortune!

Shen Jiao couldn't hold back the familiar fragrance, so she quickened her pace, almost jogging to the woman.

"Auntie, give me ten fried pancakes." Shen Jiao said bluntly, and handed over twenty cents.

The middle-aged woman paused her hands, and quickly raised her lowered head. She glanced at Shen Jiao very quickly, with scrutiny and inquiry in her eyes, but she quickly lowered her head again, and took out a clean piece of paper , filled ten fried pancakes and handed them to Shen Jiao, and touched them with one big and one small hands.

The woman's hand was a bit cold, but Shen Jiao could still feel the softness and tenderness of this hand, and involuntarily looked at the woman's hand making buns.

The nails are beautifully manicured, the surface of the nails is also polished, there is no dead skin on the side, the fingers are slender and tender, and there is no thick and deformed knuckles caused by local women's farm work. It is obvious that the owner of these hands takes great care of her hands , very well maintained.

This woman is absolutely impossible to be a local peasant woman!
Although Shen Jiao was very curious, she did not have the desire to explore. The current situation between her and grandpa did not allow her to have too much curiosity. Anything that had nothing to do with her and grandpa, no matter how attractive they were, she would not will be one step closer.

 Pan-fried Mantou: A dim sum native to Shanghai. People in the north call buns with stuffing, and steamed buns without stuffing. Southerners call them all steamed buns. Vegetable steamed buns are vegetarian buns, meat buns are meat buns, and light steamed buns are without stuffing. , Pan-fried steamed buns are actually similar to fried steamed buns, small and exquisite, delicate in shape and delicious in taste. It is a very characteristic dim sum in the south.

  Who is this woman?And the male lead whom everyone has been thinking about is about to play!
