Back to 80s: It's not easy to be a group favorite

Chapter 52 Delicious Yuqian Cake
Grandma Li came out of the house, looked at her granddaughter tossing new gadgets, and asked her granddaughter cheerfully: "Hey! Why do you want to eat this again, kid?"

Li Shaoyun smiled while choosing yuqian: "Don't you just want to eat something new! I've been thinking about it for a long time! Grandma, do you want to eat it?"

Grandma Li also became interested, moved a stool over, sat next to her granddaughter to help, and said as she chose: "I haven't eaten this for many years, and I don't usually think of eating it! Milk is also a snack. It hurts to eat! It’s just now that life is better now, and sometimes I want to taste half a mouthful, why don’t you see who eats this now?”

Li Shaoyun raised his head, looked at Grandma Li and said with a smile: "Grandma, isn't this a change of taste! No matter how delicious something is, it will get tired of it every day! If it doesn't taste good, we won't make it next time!"

Grandma Li looked at her granddaughter and shook her head, "It means that life is better now, and you little ones are tired of eating good food, so you want to change the taste. This person, that's how it is. If you eat too much good food, you want to eat some whole grains Beat the grease! What are you going to do?"

Li Shaoyun said in his heart, the current life is just out of the line of food and clothing, so it's not very good, right?
But she just thought about it in her heart and didn't intend to say it out. After all, from the perspective of Grandma Li and the older generation, life is really good now!
It's not like when they were young, they really had a meal without a meal, and sometimes they couldn't even guarantee their lives.

But from the perspective of Li Shaoyun's later generations, it is natural to feel that the current life is just past the line of food and clothing.

"Shall we make elm cakes? Stir some flour and eggs, add some salt, and bake them in the pan." Li Shaoyun thought for a while and said to Grandma Li.

"You put so many good things here, it's no wonder it doesn't taste good!" Grandma Li smiled in the creases on her face, pretending to blame her granddaughter.

Li Shaoyun chuckled, "It's okay! We don't lack eggs and flour. Wouldn't it be nice to have a meal for a change? After a while, Yuqian will not taste good when it gets old!"

Grandma Li shook her head and said nothing more.

Anyway, it's all in the stomach, and it can't spoil things. Granddaughter likes to toss, so let her toss!

After the grandparents and grandchildren finished choosing yuqian harmoniously, Li Shaoyun picked up a basket and went to the kitchen to wash the yuqian, planning to make yuqian cakes.

Li Er had finished his homework now, and followed his sister into the kitchen curiously.

The little hand stretched out, grabbed a handful of elm money and threw it into his mouth, chewed and swallowed, "It's delicious!"

Then grabbed another handful.

Li Shaoyun glanced at his younger brother, "Don't eat it! I'm going to make elm cakes in a while, what are you going to do after you finish eating them? Also, your little dirty hands are caught everywhere without washing them?"

Li Er's eyes lit up when he heard it, "Yumqian cake? Is it delicious?"

"Of course it's delicious! Is it delicious? Let's go, don't get in the way! Come and light the fire later, or you won't eat it!"

Li Er nodded indifferently, resisted the pressure of his sister's gaze, and grabbed it again, "Yeah, I'll set the fire up later."

Li Shaoyun glared at his younger brother, "Still arrested?"

Li Er salivated and smiled, and hurried to the stove.

"I light the fire!"

Li Shaoyun snorted, seeing that the boy was quite obedient, he ignored him, scooped up the flour and kneaded the dough first.

The elm money and flour mixed by Li Shaoyun are about three to one, and then two eggs are beaten in, and some salt is added at the end. No other seasoning is needed, just stir and mix like this, it is really a simple meal.

Li Er said to make a fire for his sister, and he really went to the firewood room to get firewood, ready to help his sister.

Li Da came back from running around outside now, and habitually advanced into the kitchen, "What are you doing here? What's for dinner?"

Now the family is used to having three meals a day, and Li Da feels hungry when he comes back after going out for a while.

"Eat elm cakes tonight!" Li Erzui announced quickly.

Li Da looked over curiously, "What is this?"

There was a green and white ball in the basin, Li Da curled his lips in disgust, "Is this delicious?"

Li Er is a loyal gourmet, and now he supports his sister, "Of course it's delicious! I ate a lot just now!"

Li Da squinted at his younger brother: "It's not ready yet, where are you going to eat?"

Li Er pointed to the washbasin, "I ate it before it was cooked! It's delicious! It's sweet."

Li Da is speechless, and I also know that elm money is sweet when eaten raw.It's not that I haven't eaten it!
Ignoring this bastard brother, Li Da paused, "Let me light the fire!"

Li Shaoyun has no objection, but Li Er feels that his position has been deprived: "I said I want to burn the fire myself, brother, don't fight me!"

Li Da rolled his eyes, "You idiot! I don't know good people, so I can't be bothered with you!"

Li Er sat at the fire of the stove, lit the fire with his little hands, grabbed a handful of firewood and stuffed it under the pot, thick smoke billowed from the stove instantly.

Li Da looked at his forehead, "You go, I'll come!"

Grabbing his younger brother by the neck, he lifted it aside for him, and sat down to light the fire by himself.

Although Li Er was not convinced, he knew that compared to his brother, his fire-burning skills were indeed inferior, so he pouted and said nothing.

Li Shaoyun comforted him: "Okay, let brother light the fire tonight, you can do it another day!"

Roasting elm money cakes is a technical job, obviously this kid is not so good at it.

It’s okay to cook porridge or something, but let’s forget about pancakes!

When the pot was hot, Li Shaoyun poured a little oil, rubbed it with an oil wiper, spread a thin layer of oil evenly on the bottom of the pot, scooped the yuqian batter with a spoon, carefully poured it into the pot, and then tidied it up with a shovel. Press into pancakes.

Cooked several in turn, covered the pot, and said to Li Da: "Brother, pay attention to the heat, don't overheat it, it will burn in a while!"

Li Da said arrogantly: "Is it still up to you? My skills are not for bragging!"

Li Shaoyun: "..."

Ignore him, check the time is about the same, uncover the pot, turn over the pancakes, cover the pot and continue.

After a while, there was a burst of fragrance of elm money cakes in the pot.

Li Er sniffled his nose, "It smells so good!"

Li Da couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Li Shaoyun nodded: "This smell is really uplifting! I don't know if it will be enough for dinner!"

Now she regrets that she didn't stroke enough just now!Just the smell, she can eat several by herself!

Forget it, let’s do it another day!It's too late now, it's getting dark.

Li Shaoyun roasted nearly ten of them in one breath, and first picked out a few and ordered Li Er to send them to his grandma, so that they could try something new first.

Li Da couldn't help but reached out and took one, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" he bit down, "It smells so good! It's delicious!"

Grandma eats very little at night, and most of the time it’s just one bite. I forgot to make something thin tonight, so I just chose elm money and baked elm money cakes!

But she only put a little salt, which is light and delicious, so you don't have to worry about getting thirsty after eating.There is also moisture in the elm money, so the taste does not need to be too dry.
