The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 42

Along the way, Zhuzi, who didn't talk much, was nervous about meeting his master, so he didn't say a word. Yao Yu took out two steamed buns and handed them to Zhuzi, "Eat it while it's hot."

Zhu Zi shook his head, "Auntie, I'm not hungry."

"Study is very hard, take it and eat." Yao Yu stuffed it directly into Zhuzi's hand.

Zhuzi handed one of the buns to Nuoer, "Nuoer eats too."

Nuo'er shook her head, and said solemnly, "I've already eaten, Brother Zhuzi, you can eat quickly, you won't be able to concentrate on listening to the teacher's lecture if you're hungry."

Hearing this, Zhu Zi hurriedly started to eat. The stuffing of the buns in the entrance was filled with meat. Zhu Zi hadn’t eaten meat for a long time, and tears fell from his eyes. He must remember the kindness with his third aunt.

After arriving at Shangyao Village, Xie Zhimo found Mrs. Li again, explained Zhuzi's situation, and then handed over two hundred cash to Zhuzi. As for the pork, Xie Zhicai went up the mountain to hunt it.

"I can take it first." Xie Zhimo sent three people to the village school, one is Xie Zhiwen, one is Nuo'er, and the other is a pillar. They all look good, but Xie Zhiwen's character is not good. Li Fuzi still prefers Nuo Nuoer, Nuoer has a high level of comprehension, she learns things quickly, she knows how to think at a young age, and she will be a talent when she grows up.

"Master, please." Xie Zhimo said.

"Although I took him in, I still depend on myself for my studies. If you're disobedient, I won't keep you, you know?" Even if you say this to Xie Zhimo, it's also to Zhuzi.

After seeing Master Li, Zhu Zi was too scared to speak, but when he saw Master Li speak harshly, he nodded in fright.

"Okay, let's go in." Master Li said.

Seeing the classroom he dreamed of, Zhu Zi became even more nervous, but Nuo Er pulled off his clothes, "Brother Zhu Zi, let's go, let's go in."

Seeing Zhuzi sat down in the classroom, Xie Zhimo and Yao Yucai went to the town together. Today, the two cooperated more tacitly. In less than a quarter of an hour, the preparations were done, and Yao Yu continued to make buns and steamed buns.

After a while, people came to buy them, many of whom were repeat customers. Yao Yu smiled and filled everyone with the buns and steamed buns they needed.

Xie Zhimo helped find the money, and sometimes Yao Yu was making steamed buns, so he quickly brought a bowl of water, "Thanks for your hard work."

"It's not hard." Yao Yu said, he can get the frying pan today, and he will probably be busy tomorrow.

They prepared more things today than yesterday, but they sold out no later than yesterday. The two of them packed up their things and prepared to go home.

"You wait for me here, I'll get the pot." Xie Zhimo said.

"Okay." Yao Yu loaded the last thing into the bullock cart and sat there waiting for Xie Zhimo to come over.

After a while, Xie Zhimo came over with a big pot in his arms, Yao Yu's eyes lit up, it was just as he imagined!

"What is this thing?" asked the aunt at the booth next door.

Yao Yu smiled and replied, "The pot we ordered will be ready for use tomorrow."

The aunt did not expect Yao Yu to tell herself truthfully, "Then I will have to wait and see tomorrow."

Before going home, Yao Yu said to Xie Zhimo, "Let's go to the bookstore." Zhuzi was reading, and he planned to buy a knife of rice paper for Zhuzi, as well as a small bamboo basket and a pen.

When the two returned home, Xie Zhimo continued to make Nuoer's desk, while Yao Yu began to experiment with the pot. After mixing the flour, he scooped up a spoonful of flour and spread it on the pot, cracked an egg into it, and then added chopped green onion.

Quickly rolled it up, tasted it, the taste was passable, but there were too many things missing, especially the shortbread, yes, Yao Yu made this pan to make pancakes.

Yao Yu reconciled the dough, then spread it out into rectangular thin skins, and deep-fried in the oil pan. When the shortbread turned golden brown, he quickly took it out. Yao Yu cut a few more pieces of meat and fried them in the pan.

Changed the flour of the outer burrito from fine flour to ordinary flour, and made it again. After adding crispbread, pork and vegetables, the taste came out. Yao Yu broke the other half and ran outside to pass it to the person who was working. Xie Zhimo, "Try it, how about it?"

Xie Zhimo hurriedly wiped his hands on his clothes, went to pick up the half pancake, and just took a bite, nodded repeatedly, "It's delicious."

Yao Yuxin said that the flour of the real multigrain pancake still needs corn flour and soybean flour. Soybean should be bought, and I will go to the grocery store to look for it tomorrow. When I see the golden pancake, I will be very appetizing.

"How much do you think this can sell for?" Yao Yu asked.

For Xie Zhimo, this is really a bit difficult. Fortunately, Yao Yu didn't really intend to ask him the price, but negotiated, "I plan to sell the pure noodle cakes for a penny, which is the outermost layer, and then add The crispbread costs one penny each, and if you add eggs, it will cost you another penny, and if you add sliced ​​meat, it will be two pennies, how about it?"

Xie Zhimo thought for a while, if it was him, he would buy it, "Yes."

"Okay, then it's such a happy decision." Yao Yu said and went to prepare tomorrow's steamed buns and steamed buns, as well as shortbread, steamed buns and steamed buns. Yao Yu didn't plan to increase any more. Twenty baskets of steamed buns plus ten baskets per day Buns are fine.

The shortbread can be stored for a longer time, so Yao Yu fried a lot more. As for the pork, Yao Yu planned to take the raw pork to the town after marinating. If anyone wants to fry it fresh, the taste will be better. Wait until Yao Yu is ready. Afterwards, it was discovered that Nuoer had returned.

It was Zhuzi who brought Nuoer back. Seeing that Nuoer arrived home safely, Zhuzi was about to go back, but Yao Yu called him, "Zhuzi, wait a minute."

Zhu Zi hurriedly stood where he was, "Auntie, what's the matter?"

Yao Yu went in and took a small bamboo basket and rice paper, "You go to study, we don't know what to give, you will definitely need this."

Zhu Zi saw the small bamboo basket and took it over happily, "Thank you Auntie, thank you Uncle Zhimo."

"Alright, let's go home," Yao Yu said.

"I'll go back now." Zhu Zi happily went back with the small bamboo basket, and when he opened it at home, there were rice paper and pens in the bamboo basket.

"Brother, what is this?" Shuanzi saw the white paper and was about to touch it, but was afraid of getting it dirty.

"Xuan, rice paper." Zhu Zi was dumbfounded. Even the fourth uncle didn't have this thing. He saw Nuoer using it today, and he was particularly envious, but he didn't expect to have it tonight.

Although Shuanzi didn't understand how precious the rice paper was, he still said cautiously, "Brother, quickly hide these."

As soon as the words were finished, someone pushed the door and came in. The two looked at the door nervously, and were relieved when they saw that it was Mrs. Zhou.

Zhou asked puzzled, "What are you two doing?"

"Mother, the bamboo basket and the rice paper that my third aunt gave me, I still use a brush." ​​Zhuzi said.

Zhou took a look, "They have money.

Zhu Zi looked disapproving, "Mother, rice paper is very expensive, even my fourth uncle can't afford it."

Mrs. Zhou didn't expect Yao Yu to send such a valuable thing, "Hurry up, hide it quickly."

Shuanzi said triumphantly, "Brother, I told you to hide it."

Zhu Zi hid the rice paper in the bottom layer of the cabinet, and then asked, "Why hide it?"

Shuanzi said, "You don't understand, do you? If Fourth Uncle sees it, would you still have your share?"

Seeing that the pillars had hidden the things well, Mrs. Zhou asked, "How are you doing in the village school today?"

Mentioning this point, Zhuzi was a little depressed, "I can't understand a lot of what the master said, but Nuoer is the best, thanks to him for teaching me."

Mrs. Zhou was taken aback, she didn't expect Nuoer to be so powerful, "Then you should stay with Nuoer well."

Zhou meant that he could learn something in this way, but Zhuzi thought that in order to repay the love of his third uncle and third aunt, he had to take good care of Nuoer, "Don't worry, I will."

Nuo'er was studying her homework at the moment, and Yao Yu prepared pancakes and cooked porridge for dinner, unexpectedly, the two of them ate very happily.

Once the multigrain cake was on the market, many people gathered to watch. Most of them asked the price, but few bought it. Yao Yu simply asked Xie Zhimo to find a brand and write the price of the multigrain cake.

"I want a noodle cake with shortbread." A customer struggled for a long time after seeing the brand and said, if it doesn't taste good, he won't buy it next time.

Yao Yu quickly spread out the noodles, then put on the crispbread, added green onion and vegetables, and rolled them up for the person, "Two cents."

The man didn't expect that there were so many things in the two cents, and he ate happily.

"Sister, I'll buy a steamed stuffed bun." The aunt at the booth next door said, she observed it for several days, and finally couldn't help but want to buy one today.

Yao Yu directly chose one from the steamer for the aunt.The aunt took it, gave the money, took a big bite, and was burned immediately, Yao Yu hurriedly said, "Be careful."

The aunt couldn't bear to spit it out, so she swallowed it down, "Sister, this bun tastes really good."

Yao Yu made a dough cake and handed it to the aunt, "Auntie Xie, this is for you, how about a taste?"

The man took it, took a bite, and was amazed, "Is this the shortbread you mentioned?"

Yao Yu nodded, "Exactly."

"I can't stand the taste." Although I just ate the buns, I would feel tasteless if I ate this kind of meatless noodles, but the taste was different. The person introduced himself, "My name is Chen Cuihua, if you don't mind, my sister, Just call me Aunt Chen."

"Thank you Aunt Chen for the compliment," Yao Yu said.

Chen Cuihua ate Yao Yu's multigrain cake, and began to recommend it to the crowd.Yao Yu didn't expect so many people to buy it with Aunt Chen's recommendation, which is really a windfall.

Many people in the town think that multigrain pancakes are a rare thing, the cheapest one is only a penny, and everyone passing by buys one, it's not expensive anyway, and there are green vegetables in it.Making multigrain cakes, steamed buns and steamed buns again made Yao Yu really feel overwhelmed, and Xie Zhimo could only sell things, he really didn't know how to make multigrain cakes.

When it was time to collect the stall, Yao Yu almost collapsed from exhaustion, Xie Zhimo was extremely distressed, "You just sit here, and I will collect it."

Yao Yu nodded. He hadn't sat down all morning, so he was really tired.

"Let's go to the noodle shop." Yao Yu said after seeing Xie Zhimo finish packing.

"Okay." Xie Zhimo led the ox cart in front, and Yao Yu sat on it.

It's a pity that there is no soy flour in the flour shop, so Yao Yu bought some fine noodles and Xie Zhimo went to the grocery store again.
