Jiang Miao's family saved a lot of red beans, and she was reluctant to eat them on weekdays, so she was willing to take out her precious red beans when offering sacrifices to her ancestors and cooking Laba porridge on special festivals.
Because the cakes in the mouth of the daughter-in-law need to use red beans, Jiang Miao has to take out the key to open the private storage to get some red beans.
"These are all good things, so don't waste them."
There are a lot of red beans needed to make red bean cakes. Jiang Miao looked at the small half bag of red beans in his hand, and felt as if he was being cut by a knife. He was ready to give the red beans to his daughter-in-law Bailan, but his hands were still holding the cloth bag tightly, reluctant to let go. open.
"Lan'er, are you sure you can make red bean cake? Your aunt taught you that recipe, but the conditions of your Bai family probably won't give you a chance to try it, right?"
The more Jiang Miao thought about it, the more panicked she became, and she couldn't help but want to go back on her word.
"Mother, don't worry, I won't spoil good things."
Only after repeated promises did Bai Lan get enough ingredients from the old lady.
Today, Bai Lan is going to steam a basket of red bean cakes and cook a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus soup.
The recipe of the red bean cake she learned from Hou's house is very delicate and complicated. Jiang's family does not have such good conditions, and many ingredients can only be used as substitutes.
For example, the sugar needed for red bean cakes, the Hou Mansion uses high-quality honey, but the Jiang family only has rough sugar, so the taste of the red bean cakes made will naturally not be as sweet as the red bean cakes made by the Hou Mansion taste.
However, apart from the ingredients, what is also important in making pastry is the ratio of various ingredients and the cooking temperature. This point Bai Lan has reached a very high level. At least in the place where they live, Bai Lan's craftsmanship is top-notch. The chefs of some time-honored pastry shops in the town and county are not as good as her.
"Is there too much sugar added?"
"Is this glutinous rice flour used a bit too much?"
"Enough is enough, stop trying."
When Bailan was making red bean cakes, Jiang Miao was watching from the sidelines, grabbing her collar, because if she didn't do this, she might not be able to resist snatching the ingredients back from her daughter-in-law.
"Mother, the cakes are delicious."
Jiang Liu pointed to the pot of red bean cakes that were cooking and licked his mouth and said.
"Can it not be fragrant, so many good things have been ruined."
Jiang Miao's face was bitter, so much sugar and sticky rice noodles, as well as the red beans she treasured, how could the red bean cakes she made not taste good.
At this moment, she can only comfort herself in her heart. Anyway, the good things have not been spoiled. Even if these red bean cakes cannot be sold in the end, at least they can satisfy her son's sweet taste.
While steaming the red bean cake, Bai Lan quickly prepared to make sweet-scented osmanthus soup.
The ingredients used in this dessert are relatively cheap, and it is the beginning of autumn, when the sweet-scented osmanthus blooms the most and the best. Crafted. The scent of osmanthus is stronger, and the original shape and color of osmanthus are preserved more thoroughly.
Bai Lan prefers to use glutinous rice balls with sweet-scented osmanthus soup, but she used too much glutinous rice flour today, and now her mother-in-law Jiang Miao is not willing to take out glutinous rice flour for her to spoil, so Bai Lan chose sweet potato flour as the next best thing .
She made rounds with sweet potato flour. Last year's sweet potatoes were extraordinarily sweet, and the quality of sweet potato flour made from sweet potatoes was also better than in previous years. Bai Lan took a bite of the sweet potato rounds. They were soft, smooth and sweet, and tasted very good.
The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus was overbearing, and soon, the closed door of the kitchen could not block the scent of sweet soup, and Jiang Hai and Jiang Hu also smelled it.
"Your mother is making trouble for fools again."
Xu Xiaocao stood by the window and closed the window bitterly to reduce the introduction of fragrance.
When I heard that Jiang Liu hurt his brain, Xu Xiaocao was secretly happy for a while when he fell insane. He was glad that he separated the family in time. The eccentric old lady got her retribution. Now her most beloved baby boy has become a fool. If she wants to rely on her in her later years, Jiang Miao may have to bow her head and beg for their first wife and second wife. At that time, she can also take the opportunity to blackmail Jiang Miao. Shi gave them the house and field that had been eccentrically allocated to the third child at the beginning.
It's just that after being happy for so many days, Jiang Miao didn't ask for it as she guessed. On the contrary, the old woman and Bai Lan just cheered up and went to work in the field after being sad for a few days. Don't mention how uncomfortable Cao felt.
"Mei Hua, go to your grandma to ask for food. You are your granddaughter, and she will not be reluctant to give you food."
Xu Xiaocao was beating wildly in her heart.?, he should repay the debt, because whether it is him now or in the future, it is him.
This is what another voice said.
Bai Lan's upturned mouth returned to its original state, and she lowered her eyes, wondering what she was thinking¡ª¡ª
The market closest to Jiangjia Village is more than an hour away from the tutorial in Jiangjia Village. Jiang Liu is carrying heavy loads, so naturally he spends more time on the road.
Bai Lan and the others set off before the sun had risen, and it was still dark when they left home. By the time they reached the town, it was completely bright.
At this time, the market was bustling with activity, and many surrounding farmers were carrying vegetables from the field and setting up stalls along the street to sell them. There are also many shops selling breakfast on both sides of the road, and the aroma of steamed stuffed buns and noodle soup keeps drilling into people's noses.
Bai Lan and the others arrived not too early, and they had never set up a stall in the market before, so there were not many places to choose from. Bai Lan chose a relatively good place to put down the things they brought, and then Take out the red bean cake wrapped in a quilt to keep warm.
The moment the white gauze was lifted, the red bean cake, which was still warm, exuded a rich and sweet fragrance, which attracted the attention of many people.
And the red bean cake made by Bailan looks better than half of the red bean cake. The color is pure, the cut is perfect, and when it shakes, it trembles, as beautiful and eye-catching as red agate.
"How do you sell this red bean cake?"
Someone will come to ask the price soon.
"One yuan for three Wen, three yuan for eight Wen."
This is the price that Bai Lan had thought up before.
"The red bean cake you sell is too expensive. Wufangzhai's red bean cake is only at this price. It is still a time-honored brand."
Upon hearing the price, many people flinched. For three pennies, it is better to go to a time-honored pastry shop to buy it.
Neither of Bai Lan's two dynasties had any experience in selling things. She just felt that her stuff was good and worthy of such a price. Therefore, seeing so many people only asking whether to buy it, Bai Lan also doubted whether her pricing was correct.
"Daughter-in-law, eat cakes."
After a period of time, Bai Lan sold two pieces of red bean cakes. Seeing that the red bean cakes were completely cooled, the cool red bean cakes are not delicious when they are not hot.
Jiang Liu poked Bai Lan's arm carefully, and salivated at the pieces of red bean cake that had been cut.
Originally promised to give the red bean cake, Bai Lan lied to Jiang Liu, she just wanted to coax this little fool to help her carry things, but when she saw Jiang Liu's clear eyes, Bai Lan still felt guilty after all.
"Just one piece, and it will be gone after you finish eating."
She chose a piece that was accidentally cut small, and this piece was to be used as an extra for those who bought more.
Fortunately, at the age of four, Jiang didn't understand these things, so he ate the red bean cake he had been thinking about happily.
Because he was about to go out, Jiang Miao carefully tidied up his son's appearance. At this moment, Jiang Liu sitting in the market with people coming and going is a beautiful scenery.
Watching him eat red bean cake was like tasting some delicious food. Many people couldn't help swallowing.
Is this red bean cake really so delicious?
In fact, it's only three pennies, at worst, buy it to taste something new, if it doesn't taste good, just don't buy it.
This idea flashed through many people's minds, especially some elderly aunts, seeing Jiang Liu's fair face, cute and cute, couldn't help but want to buy a piece of red bean cake to go home and coax Coax the little grandchildren at home.
The originally unsalable red bean cake became popular all of a sudden. Seeing that more than half of the red bean cake had been sold in a short period of time, Bai Lan couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
It never occurred to her that the key to opening up the market was not the real material of the cakes she made, but the face of the little fool. It was really frustrating to think about it.
But the little fool didn't know his wife's complicated mood at this time. He finished the small piece of red bean cake, licked his mouth, and sneaked into the food box containing the red bean cake with one hand, wanting to steal another piece to taste.
His performance proved from the side that the red bean cake is really delicious, otherwise why would he steal another piece after eating one.
Soon, the remaining red bean cakes were also sold out, in less than half an hour, which far exceeded Bai Lan's expectations.
"Cake."
Jiang Liu pursed his mouth, he hadn't stolen the red bean cake yet.
The people nearby also noticed that this young man seemed to have some brain problems, but Jiang Liu was well-groomed and handsome enough. Although he was silly, he was even more lovable and not annoying at all.
People passing by looked at Jiang Liu with sympathy and pity, but no one pointed at him and laughed.
"Go back and make it for you to eat."
The red bean cakes were sold out, Bai Lan was in a good mood, seeing the pitiful expression of the little fool, her heart was naturally softer.
She comforted herself in her heart, it wasn't that she forgave the scumbag, it was just her reward for betraying her lust to the little fool.
Thinking of this, Bai Lan no longer feels ashamed of herself in the previous life. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com); People passing by looked at Jiang Liu with sympathy and pity, but no one pointed at him and laughed.
