Farmhouse Qiaofei

Chapter 66 The Second Snack After Teppanyaki Tofu
Bai Chuanqiong's family didn't know about these thoughts of Bai Chuanqiong, and they were happily selling iron plate tofu.

Because of the first day's tasting, many people know the taste of sizzling tofu, and those who are greedy will buy it again.

As for those who don't know, seeing that Bai Shao's business is good here, they also come here to join in the fun with a curiosity-seeking mentality.

Ever since, Bai Shao's business today is even better than yesterday.

Until noon, all the iron plate tofu was sold out, Bai Laosan and his family packed up tiredly, and kept the food stall in Hou's blacksmith shop, and then went to buy sesame oil at Bai Shao's request. After a bowl of sesame oil and a bowl of sesame paste, I went back to Shilipu.

As soon as he entered Bai's house, Bai Shao could smell a strange fragrance.

"What is this? It smells so good." Bai Wei took two deep breaths and said intoxicated.

"Sister, don't smell it." Bai Shao stood on tiptoe and pinched the tip of Bai Wei's nose, "This smell is not good for your health, don't smell it."

"Oh." Bai Wei nodded ignorantly, although she didn't know the reason, she was willing to obey Bai Shao's words unconditionally, "If you don't smell it, you don't smell it."

The family entered the west side room, closed the door, and cut off the strange smell.

Only then did Bai Shao take out the various spices that she bought in the spice shop in the morning from the basket carried by Bai Chuanbai.

Bai Wei has never cooked before, and doesn't know these spices, but Wu has seen them.

"Shao'er, why are you buying these big ingredients for soup?" she asked.

"For food." Bai Shao smiled mysteriously at Wu Shi, "Mother, go and scoop up some water, put it in a pot and boil it, take out these spices, keep pepper, danpi, and tangerine peel, and take half of the rest , Wrap it in white gauze, put it in a pot and cook for half an hour."

"Hey, good." Wu Shi nodded, picked up half of the spices, wrapped them in cloth, washed them again, and then threw them into the pot, where they started to boil.

After the water boiled, a smell similar to the strange aroma that lingered in the Bai family before lingered around the ground pot.

But because the previous aroma was too strong, no one noticed the aroma in the pot.

When the water on Wu's side boiled up, Bai Wei's face on the other side also came alive.

This is in response to Bai Shao's request. Take the best white flour and add water to make a big ball of dough, and put it aside for a while to wake up.

After waiting for about two cups of tea, Bai Shao and Bai Wei poured a lot of water into the basin together, washing the piece of dough like rubbing clothes.

After changing the water three times, and finally could not wash out the strong white face water, Bai Shao put the washed gluten aside, mixed all the washed face water together, and covered it with a stile (it is the gluten in the sorghum stalks used by farmers. A simple pot cover sewn from a section of the pot, it will also be used to hold unsteamed steamed buns and dumplings).

Qian Dingwan asked the family members not to touch the washbasin, Bai Shao picked up the gluten that was washed out, put it on the grate (a utensil with mesh to separate things, usually used for steaming things), and put it on the cooking pot. A large amount of water, steam the gluten thoroughly.

At this time, the aniseed water has been boiled, and Wu took out a basin to fill out the ingot water, and put it in a corner to prevent it from being knocked over by someone walking around.

After cleaning up everything, Bai Shao let out a long sigh of relief, and together with Bai Wei, helped Mrs. Wu, and started their lunch.

After lunch, Wu Shi and Bai Chuanbai went to plow the ground.

Bai Kou from the big house has been standing in the middle of the yard and walking back and forth since they came back to Bai's house, apparently wanting to talk to Bai Shao, but seeing that Bai Shao is too busy, she doesn't dare to come over to make trouble.

Now Bai Shao's family has finally finished their lunch and is not so busy, she is happy to come over.

But at this moment, Bai Shao closed the door of the West Side House with a "slam", and then used Bai Wei and Bai Yunshi to act as mice, and kept making various soups for them to taste.

"This, this taste is not bad..." Bai Wei pointed to a white porcelain bowl in front of her.

"I think this one is better." Bai Yunshi pointed to the other one.

"Then keep these two, let father and mother have a taste when parents come back." Bai Shao couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.

"Shao'er, what do you want to do..." Bai Wei has been curious from the bottom of her heart since the meeting today, but she didn't ask if Bai Shao didn't say anything.

Now that she was free, she finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked.

"Sister, do you think our iron plate tofu is selling well?" Bai Shao didn't answer Bai Wei directly, but asked her a question.

"It's pretty good, what's the matter?" Bai Wei was a little puzzled.

"It's pretty good now, but within three to five days, there will always be people who are jealous of us making money, and people will figure out the taste, find out the recipes and ingredients, which means that fewer people will buy our things. Here In this case, we have to introduce new food to attract everyone's taste, and compared with iron plate tofu, the taste of this material is more difficult to develop." Bai Shao said seriously.

Not to mention others, but their fourth uncle Bai Chuanqiong is a good example.

Today, Bai Shao deliberately bought a lot of tangerine peel and other ingredients at the spice shop. Apart from wanting to teach Bai Chuanqiong a lesson, he also didn't want anyone to taste the ingredients of sizzling tofu so quickly.

Although it will be tasted sooner or later, and the iron plate tofu will be rampant sooner or later, but one day later, their family can earn an extra day's money.

"So that's how it is." Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "Shao'er is still smart enough to even think of these things. But, you got those materials, and you still have some water, what do you want to do?"

"Liangpi." Bai Shao said softly with nostalgia in his eyes.

Recalling Liangpi, it is probably something that everyone in school has eaten.

There are rolls and tunes, and they are sold at the gate of the school. Every time after school, the boss will be surrounded by a group of students, waiting for their own Liangpi to be ready in order, throwing the money into the money box, and eating the Liangpi. I am happy to go home.

Because the ingredients are different, the taste of Liangpi is different from every household.

And what Bai Shao did this time was the kind of cold noodle that she remembered most and loved the most.

That night, after Bai Chuanbai and Wu Shi came back, she asked Wu Shi to boil a large pot of boiling water, took another basin with a slightly larger bottom, cleaned it, and put it aside for later use.

Immediately afterwards, she took out the face water that had been settled for a long time, and poured out all the transparent water on top, leaving only a little bit to mix evenly with the starch that had settled at the bottom to make a slightly thick batter.

After the water in the pot boiled, Bai Shao lifted the lid of the pot, took a spoonful of batter and poured it into the basin, shook it slightly to make the batter cover the basin, and then immediately put it into the boiling pot.

The batter, which was originally whitish, quickly became translucent at this moment, and large bubbles bulged.

Bai Shao hurriedly took out the washbasin, with wooden chopsticks and hands slightly opened, took out the finished dough and spread it on the stile.

Bai Chuanbai at the side suddenly realized, and hurried forward to take the big basin in Bai Shao's hand, scooped up a spoonful of batter with a dignified appearance, and put it in it.

"This is the main material of Liangpi. Because it's a bit sticky, you must apply a little cooked oil in the middle to ensure that they don't stick together." Bai Shao rubbed her sore wrist while watching Bai Wei carefully apply the cooked oil with her hands.

In this day and age, you can't find a brush, and you can only apply it by hand.

"Shao'er, you are so smart, where did you learn these things?" Bai Wei took a moment to raise her head, and looked at Bai Shao with some admiration.

"It's from the book." Bai Shao had thought up this excuse a long time ago, "Didn't mother teach us to read, I can read quickly, so I simply bought two more books to read, and slowly learned something."

"Our Shao'er is smart." Bai Chuanbai said proudly while working.

"That's right, our family can make money, thanks to Shao'er." Bai Wei praised his sister without hesitation.

Bai Shao couldn't help pursing her lips and laughing, "But I still don't have the energy to work. I just made this Liangpi and my hands were sore. Thanks to my dad, who is also smart and learns quickly."

Bai Chuanbai and Wu's on the side both laughed.

The whole family gathers around the door of the house on the west side, enjoying themselves in harmony and harmony.

Mrs. Liu stood at the door of the main room, no matter how she looked at it, she felt glaring.

That's her son, he should kiss her and have a good time with her.

Wu's are all outsiders!

"What are you laughing at, what's so funny." Feeling uneasy, Mrs. Liu stood at the door of the main room and yelled, "I heard your laughter from ten miles and eight villages away. Why, tell me something happy Say it."

The smiles of Bai Chuanbai and Wu's gradually subsided.

After a while, Bai Chuanbai lowered his head and said back to her, "Mother, we're fine."

"It's nothing to laugh at, it's like a bunch of idiots." Shi Liu gave Bai Chuanbai a hard look, then turned her head and went back to the main room.

Bai Chuanbai let out a long sigh, "Mum, she's like this...every time other people are happy, she always comes here..."

She has to come over and have a foot in her. She is only satisfied and happy when she sees that others are unhappy and stop laughing.

Who can understand Liu's character better than Bai Chuanbai?

As usual, when Bai Chuanbai said this, Wu would always help Liu to excuse, until Bai Chuanbai smiled.

But this time, Mrs. Wu remained silent and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Bai Chuanbai could only lower his head again and continue to sigh.

Bai Shao and Bai Wei looked at each other, but they both curled their lips and didn't speak.

In front of the door of the west side house, there was a dull moment, Mrs. Wu lowered her head to cook the pot, Bai Chuanbai was blanching cold skin like a machine, and Bai Wei was applying cooked oil.

Waiting until all the noodle water had been made into Liangpi, Mrs. Wu returned to the West Side House with the stiles in her hands, and then said, "Is it because you don't want to see us well?"

Although no name was named, everyone knew it in their hearts.

Bai Chuanbai froze on the spot, and he stammered after a long time, "No, it's not...she has such a personality...We've been here for so long..."

Bai Wei was angry when she heard this, and wanted to help the Wu family, but was stopped by Bai Shao.

It's rare for Mrs. Wu to lose her temper. They can't help, so she must let Mrs. Wu be tough to the end.

In this world, it doesn't matter who protects you. Only when you become tough can you protect yourself!
