Lin Su looked at the contents in the basin, then at the mold, nodded, and said.
"Take three, or you won't be able to fit them."
"Okay." Old Man Gu didn't hesitate, and gave her three clean, water-free molds.
Lin Su cautiously poured in, and poured three molds.
When Old Man Gu saw this, he smiled and said.
"The little girl has a good idea in her heart, but it's just right."
Lin Su chuckled lightly, picked up the mold and turned it up and down twice to shake out the bubbles, then looked at Old Man Gu and said.
"Uncle, I'm sorry to trouble you, it's cooked."
"Okay, okay, this is okay." Old man Gu finished speaking and put the three molds into the oven.
Lin Su took the mold of the trough cake, added a little sugar, and made it about two kilograms.
Give it to Old Man Gu, and then said with a smile.
"Uncle, we still have to go shopping for groceries. We have to entertain guests from home tomorrow."
Hearing the words, Old Man Gu immediately understood what she meant, and waved his hands hurriedly and said.
"Don't worry, you should buy what you should buy. I will take care of these things for you. There will be no shortage of them."
"Thank you, uncle." Lin Su finished, pulling Ling Muchuan's sleeve to the door.
The two put on the cloak and cloak and walked out of the yard, and left the cart directly through the back door.
First went to the dried fruit shop to buy some preserves, and then went to the tea shop to buy two or two high-quality Tieguanyin.
Fruit, chicken, meat, pig offal...
Ling Muchuan was a complete foil, just behind Lin Su. He paid for what she bought, then took it and carried it in his hand.
When he arrived at the last grocery store, Ling Muchuan had already carried a lot of things.
Today, Xie Jiaping was in the shop. Hearing the guy said that they were coming, he hurried over from the backyard.
Looking at the appearance of the two, I couldn't help but squinted his eyes and said.
"Oh, why are you doing this? Why do you buy so many? Buying for the New Year."
Lin Su smiled and shook his head, took off his hat, and answered.
"Where, come tomorrow at home, buy more things. It's cold, and you can stay at home, saving you always running back and forth."
"That's such a rationale."
After Xie Jiaping finished speaking, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds for the two of them as if offering treasures, and said.
"Hurry up, taste it, taste it, and see how it's done."
There was a lot of busy work, and there was really no time to eat melon seeds. The two put the melon seeds back into the bag and left a few seeds to taste.
Chewing and swallowing, Lin Su nodded and said.
"Yes, it tastes good."
"Yes, I think it's delicious too. I made a lot of it specially and gave it to my relatives in Beijing."
Xie Jiaping said here, looking at Lin Su a little embarrassed and said again.
"Brother sister, the one hundred taels of silver that I gave you was too little. I set up a workshop to supply it to other grocery stores. Or see, I'll add more to you?"
He hasn't said the rest.
This is given to the capital city, and the capital city can definitely like it. By then, this money will not be able to make a profit
But Lin Su didn't agree, just shook his head and said with a smile.
"Don't don't don't, Brother Xie can say that, obviously he didn't treat us as outsiders. Since we are not outsiders, we don't have to be so clear. Big Brother thinks of us for all these good things, and has taken care of us.
Xie Jiaping waved his hand in shame, smacked his tongue, said.
"If you don't say that, I really feel that you have lost."
"No loss, the mink you gave is just what she can use." Ling Muchuan replied indifferently.
should.
Speaking of mink, Xie Jiaping also noticed Lin Su's cloak outside, and said after turning around Lin Su.
"Not bad, this cloak is well done. What fur is this ring? Rabbit's?"
Ling Muchuan shook his head, and after only uttering two words "white fox", he fell down.
When Xie Jiaping heard the white fox, he gave her a thumbs up and said.
"Big brother is good, with vision and ability."
Ling Muchuan didn't speak, just nodding slowly as a response.
Xie Jiaping remembered something, looked at Lin Su, and said again with a sigh.
"That pig went into the water, did you really sell it to the Zhao family?"
"Yeah." Lin Su nodded.
Ling Muchuan threw the remaining melon seeds into the bag and said.
"She is in poor health and chills. She can't sell it in winter, so she simply sells it."
"Oh, I'm blind. This old Zhao's family can be regarded as a post. There are shops in several nearby towns. I heard that there is a lot of money."
Lin Su stopped Xie Jiaping and shrugged, feeling helpless.
"I can't do anything for being blind. Who makes me lose my heart. Okay, big brother, let's not talk about this. I will buy something and come from home tomorrow."
"Okay, just say what you want. Brother will give you the lowest price."
If you don’t know that you don’t have to pay, then you will pay according to the purchase price, and you don’t have to refuse.
Xie Jiaping personally entertained the two of them. After Lin Su bought all the things that should be bought, he realized that they were walking by.
After thinking for a while, he took the initiative to mention it.
"Just put the stuff here, and you two will take the stuff over there. There is a carriage at home, let the buddy take you back."
"No, we ourselves..."
"Brother, younger sibling, you can't be polite anymore. Big brother is already very guilty for not letting you make up for money." Xie Jiaping said earnestly.
Ling Muchuan thought for a while, but didn't refuse any more, nodded and said.
"Then let the buddy help to install the car, and we will come over after we pick up the things."
"That's right." After Xie Jiaping finished speaking, he slapped Ling Muchuan's shoulder warmly and patted twice.
When the two returned to Shuqizhai, everything was out of the pot.
Old Man Gu filled the trough cake while pointing to the three cooked pastries beside him, and said.
"I'll pretend that for a while. The smell is different, it's very fragrant!"
Lin Su smiled and nodded, took out one of them, broke a piece and tasted it, it was sweet, waxy and soft, and it tasted good.
Neither of them ate at noon, Lin Su broke a large piece and handed it to Ling Muchuan, saying.
"Push up your stomach, go home and cook before eating."
"Good." Ling Muchuan was also hungry.
Having been busy for most of the day, this will make the end of the day, and my stomach will growl groaning a long time ago.
Old Man Gu filled the trough cake and poured two bowls of hot water for the two of them, and put them there to dry, and said.
"I'll go back after eating, I'll pretend this for you too."
After the old man finished speaking, he took out the oiled paper and folded it a few times. It turned out to look like a paper shell, which was amazing.
Put the cake in, then gently tie it with a string and set it aside.
Lin Su quickly broke a piece and handed it to the old man, earnestly said.
"Uncle taste it and see how it looks."
"Okay, then I'll taste it." Old man Gu finished speaking and took it, and then took a look.
With that said, the old man took a bite and nodded unceasingly.
After Lin Su and Ling Muchuan had eaten, Old Man Gu went and called the boss. Billing Suprem
The estimated price is a bit less, and it really works better for a few copper plates.
I helped to bake it again, and I also helped to collect it. When I quoted it, I deliberately helped to report a lower price, which is great.
After Ling Muchuan gave the money, the two went out carrying things.
At the grocery store, the carriage is ready, and there is a charcoal stove in the car.
After saying hello to Xie Jiaping, the two of them sat in the carriage and grilled around the charcoal stove.
It’s good to have a car, Lin Su thought for a moment, looked at him, and said.
"Wait for the next year, let's buy a car. Then you don't have to be alone in farming. If you have a horse, you should..."
Before he finished speaking, Ling Muchuan stretched out his hand and scratched the bridge of her nose and said.
"Do you think that horse should be bought as soon as it is said to be bought? Someone needs to have some identity. Our family... It's almost the same to buy a cow. For the time being, this horse is impossible.
Lin Su listened to the corners of his mouth, looked at him puzzledly, and asked.
"What is the identity? What is the definition of this identity?"
"Pay taxes." Ling Muchuan put his arm around her shoulder and said lightly.
The way back is not boring, Ling Muchuan has been explaining to her the general identity of Yueguo.
Farmers pay taxes on crops, and shops do business.
According to the annual tax payment as a summary, reaching a certain amount, the lintel can be widened, or you can buy something from the Yamen.
For example, this horse has to be registered at the Yamen side.
At the door of the house, the carriage stopped, and the man helped Ling Muchuan unload the things in the car.
When Lin Su jumped out of the car, he found that the snow had lost his ankles.
It's a carriage, if they two leave, I guess they won't be able to come back now.
After unloading the things, the guy just wanted to leave, he couldn't even drink his saliva.
Lin Su naturally couldn't follow the situation, but the guy said he was afraid that the snow would get bigger and bigger and it would be hard to go back.
Although the road is not far away, it is still dangerous to catch a car.
Lin Su couldn't help but had to send away the buddy.
After returning to the house, while cooking and tidying up, Ling Muchuan concentrated on sweeping the snow.
Under such snow conditions, I don't know if that person can come tomorrow.
First boil water in the pot, and then go to the backyard vegetable field to pull a frozen cabbage back.
When I was buying meat, I happened to have a few big sticks in Butcher Zhang's. I bought them and stewed them to warm myself up with soup.
The water was hot, Lin Su took out the big basin and washed the bones.
Split the bones with an axe and burn them in a pot under cold water. While the pot is not open, wash out all the pig's offal first, and save it for cooking tomorrow.
She had all thoughts about it, and since she was going to entertain guests, she had to make a good meal.
Fatty liver, fatty intestines, sauerkraut-fried belly, stir-fried pork heart, pot-wrapped meat...
Don't do more, do a little bit of everything, try something new.
When the big pot is boiling, use a spoon to skim the froth, then add green onions, ginger, garlic, and put the chopped frozen cabbage into the house. Cover the pot and continue to simmer.
The pig's sewage was cleaned, and Ling Muchuan just swept the snow.
Come in and take the big pot away, and use the stove in the yard to deodorize pig intestines and other things.
They are all cooked, so there is no need to ask.
Lin Su adjusted the cabbage and pork bone soup in the pot, and took out a few steamed buns from the large tank outside.
As soon as the steamed buns were put into the pot, Ling Muchuan entered the house.
Looking at him, Lin Su couldn't help asking worriedly.
"Such snow, can he come tomorrow?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely come."
"Oh, that's good." Lin Su finished speaking, looked at him and said again, "You take me back two jars of red cans from the mountains, it will be useful tomorrow."
