Chapter 280 Baizishou Tao
Seeing her son standing there with a tangled face, the old lady waved her hands and said, "You have worked hard too, go down and rest too, by the way, you can write a letter to Feng'er and say that I miss him as a grandmother, let him Take good care of yourself."

"Yes. My son is going to write a letter now. I will definitely tell Feng'er about my mother's concern. Then my mother will rest well, and my son will leave first." Third Master Yu agreed, with joy flashing in his eyes, and his mother still missed him very much. He also took care of Feng'er, and asked about Feng'er in several letters, and if his mother asked him, his elder brother would naturally help him, and Feng'er's life would be easier.

Third Master Yu left, and the old lady sighed secretly.

"Thinking so much, I just said I'm here. Now it's your turn again. Don't think about it, take good care of your body, and when you recover, I'll cook something delicious for you." Qiao really couldn't bear it.

"Really?" The old lady's eyes lit up, and then went out again, and said: "Forget it, you are heavy, so you should not go to the kitchen. It's not good if you bump into it. You can't hurt it because of stuttering." Something happened to you. I'm not that hungry yet."

"How can you be so delicate." Qiaozhen rolled her eyes at the old lady, and said again: "In ten days or so, my grandma's baby will be born. This time, the family is planning to celebrate. If I want to treat guests, I have to go, even though the gifts prepared by the mansion There are quite a few, but I just want to do something myself, and when the time comes, I will send you a copy."

"Oh? Old sister is having a baby. I'm sure I'll give you a gift too. What are you going to do?" The old lady kept the date in her heart, and she still had a good impression of Mrs. Chen.

"I won't tell you. You can think about it yourself." Qiaozhen is being tricky.

"Little villain." The old lady said something, and then relaxed, the two looked at each other and smiled, and stopped talking, but the atmosphere in the room was good.

In this way, Qiaozhen went to Yufu to visit every day, Mrs. Qin gradually recovered, she was able to walk on the ground, her spirit improved a lot, she also gradually increased her food intake, and her speech almost returned to normal. Qiaozhen Only then did she feel relieved, and the next step was to take care of her, and take care of her slowly. After all, the old lady was getting old, and being ill once was very debilitating.

After finishing the cooking, the old lady's birth is coming soon. Qiaozhen has already prepared all kinds of gifts, but besides these gifts, she also prepared one more.

Longevity peaches are indispensable for celebrating birthdays. Generally, big families will prepare a big birthday peach, or some small birthday peaches. The meaning of longevity peaches is very good, so this year Qiaozhen is going to make birthday peaches himself to celebrate Chen’s birthday.

And the birthday peach she wants to make is different from the birthday peach here, and it is novel.But it's troublesome to do, so Qiaozhen started to lead the preparations a few days before the birthday.

The birthday peaches here are made of noodles without any fillings. They are similar to steamed buns, but the shape is different, but it happens that they are made with fillings.In the first two days, she asked people to prepare fillings, including jujube paste, bean paste, peanuts, sesame seeds, fruits, etc., and prepared 99 kinds of fillings.

On the day before Chen's birthday, Qiaozhen began to prepare birthday peaches, because if she made them that day, she would not be in a hurry. The weather is not too hot now, so it's okay to leave them for a day.

Qiaozhen doesn't have to do the dough making by himself, the cook will do it, and she will be there to guide.

Qiaozhen first asked them to pour the noodles into a large basin, then poured clean water into it, and asked them to add some pork, and then began to stir.It needs to be mixed evenly.

Stir well, then slowly add flour and knead into a dough.The dough should be kneaded smooth and delicate without lumps, otherwise the taste will be bad.

Qiaozhen looked at it, touched it with his hand again, and felt that it was almost ready, so the cooks stopped their hands, put the dough on the chopping board and began to roll it with a rolling pin.

This is different from rolling noodles. Not only do you have to roll it repeatedly, but you also have to fold it into three folds every time you roll it. After rolling it, cover it with a damp cloth and wake it up for about a quarter of an hour.

When the time came, Qiaozhen nodded as she woke up.The next thing is to make the shape. Qiaozhen makes big birthday peaches, and asks the cooks to make small birthday peaches. There is only one big birthday peach, but 99 small birthday peaches. That's why we have to make 99 kinds of stuffing. are different.

After everything is done, steam the longevity peaches on the inner seat of the pot and steam them separately.Steam until the color of the birthday peach turns white, even if it is ripe, it will take about a quarter of an hour to steam.

After it is ripe, take it out and let it cool down, then use a small brush to start coloring the birthday peaches, and just dye the mouth of each small peach red.

As for the big ones, just dye the mouth of the gourd red, and then put 99 small peaches into the big peach shell. Qiaozhen put the two scoop-shaped peach shells together tightly, and then let the cook take the glutinous rice noodles and boil them in water The batter is applied to the seams of two peach pots, so that it will become a complete big peach. After drying, the seams will be tightly stitched, and the seams will not be seen. Qiaozhen then dyes it to look like a real peach. Qiaozhen Add branches and leaves and put them on the peach stand she bought earlier.

Qiaozhen can't stop nodding when she sees the finished product. The peach base and the peach set off each other perfectly, just like the real thing. It looks very gratifying. Anyone will like this kind of thing. Not only is the shape beautiful, solemn, but also the taste is sweet and sweet. tasty.She was drooling and wanted to take a bite.

"Auntie, Yingzi, you guys go there and send this to the Yufu, to the old lady Qin, this is what I promised her." Qiaozhen asked Sun Juhua and Yingzi to deliver it to the old lady, The old lady has returned to normal now, and it's okay to eat something.And Mama Yang and the others, let them try something new.

"Yes. The old slave (servant) obeys." The two bowed down.

After watching them leave, Qiaozhen started to do it again. With the experience of last time, this time it was done more smoothly and better.

When Sun Juhua and Yingzi came back, they said that the old lady was very happy. After seeing it, they felt pleasantly surprised, so they accepted it. In addition, they asked Qiaozhen to tell her that she was planning to go tomorrow, but Third Master Yu and the others disagreed. , several people came to talk together, she decided not to leave the house because she was upset, she will send someone to deliver the gift tomorrow, I hope it is a coincidence that it is not surprising.

Qiaozhen smiled, how could he be surprised.Although the old lady's health has improved a lot, it's good not to go, otherwise it will be messy, and if there is any noise, the old lady will be upset.It's better to rest in the mansion.

Qiaozhen finished her birthday peach, she felt relieved, she had a good night's sleep, and the next day she didn't have a lazy bed. After washing up, she had breakfast with Chen Xuanyu, packed the presents, and the two got into the carriage.

In the carriage, Chen Xuanyu asked Qiaozhen to lean against his arms so that the carriage would not bump into Qiaozhen. With Qiaozhen in his arms, he could protect Qiaozhen and act as a human cushion for Qiaozhen, so as not to get hurt.

"Shou Tao is good. Grandma will definitely like it." Chen Xuanyu said softly. He tasted a few small birthday peaches yesterday, and they tasted pretty good.

"That is, this is called Baizishou Tao. It is very famous in later generations. It contains the meaning of celebrating a hundred sons and a hundred years old. It is not only good in meaning, but also delicious. The person who invented it has studied for many years before becoming a master. Baizishou Tao came out, can it be good!"

Qiaozhen spoke in a pompous manner, and after she finished speaking, she looked at Chen Xuanyu, who was smiling but not smiling, and suddenly became wilted again, like a deflated ball, and muttered: "Although I plagiarized, I also worked hard. , the small peaches in the Baizishou peaches of later generations are filled with jujube paste. Some people don’t like to eat them, so I made 99 kinds of fillings. In this way, there is always one that I like to eat, and only those who love it will like it. It’s also an invention. It’s not just about taking advantage of future generations.”

Seeing her like this, Chen Xuanyu grinned the corners of his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "You, I didn't say anything about you, why explain, I like everything you do, besides, your kindness is rare, such a big one I still have to do this in my stomach. I'm afraid you will be tired."

Qiaozhen leaned in Chen Xuanyu's arms, breathed a sigh of satisfaction, closed her eyes, and said softly: "It's good to be more active, and more active is the best way to have a baby. Giving birth here is like entering the gate of hell. One is not good. One dead body and two dead. Unlike our time, very few people gave birth naturally in our place, usually by caesarean section, with a scalpel pulled on the stomach, the baby was taken out, cosmetic needles were sewed, and anti-inflammatory injections were given for a few days , that's fine. It's not like here. It's terrible, and it's scary to think about it."

Chen Xuanyu hugged Qiaozhen and tightened his hands, his heart was full of puzzlement. Although he heard Qiaozhen say a lot of modern things, he still didn't understand what Qiaozhen said about the cesarean section. Qiaozhen said it easily. Diarrhea with a knife, that's ripping open the belly, it's scary to think about it, how can she think it's simple, they don't have a good brain somewhere, right?My nerves are definitely not normal, but it seems that Qiaozhen is quite clever, so why do you just say strange and nonsensical words.

Qiaozhen didn't see Chen Xuanyu's voice for a long time, so she looked up at Chen Xuanyu, and she knew what he was thinking by seeing his tangled expression. She laughed and said: "It's not what you think, it's not what you think. It scares me to death. The caesarean section is different from what you think. It’s just a pull under the belly, the baby is taken out, the dirt inside is cleaned up, and then stitched up. You explain, because I have not experienced it, but I just heard people say that it is not dangerous at all, and some of them will not leave scars on their stomachs afterwards. Women don’t want to suffer, so they usually choose caesarean section.”

Chen Xuanyu couldn't understand Qiaozhen's words even more. He was confused when he heard it. He cut open the stomach and took out the child here, fearing that the mother would die, but there was no scar left in their place afterward, which is amazing.how can that be possible?He shakes his head submissively, thinking that it is absolutely impossible, but coincidentally he can't lie to himself, what she said must be true, so what kind of world is it?Chen Xuanyu was full of curiosity and longing.
