Crispy little husband

The Binghua crisp that Su Xin brought yesterday when he went to Yao's village was immediately sent to Liangping Prefecture by Mrs. Yao after they left yesterday.

Last night, Mrs. Yao ate the wine glutinous rice cake that Su Xin told her about the recipe. This afternoon, Su Xin asked someone to bring pea yellow, which is different from Poria cake, red bean cake, and mung bean cake. Mrs. Yao tried it. Afterwards, I feel that if the sweeter "goji berry" on the pea yellow is removed, it must also meet Ning Wei's taste.

So, she kept a small half of it for herself, put the Jiuniang cake made yesterday into the food box, and sent someone to deliver it to Liang Pingzhou again.

For the next ten or twenty days, Su Xin made one, two or even three kinds of pastries every day when she had nothing to do, not sticking to a certain category or a certain region.

According to the way of making pastries, Su Xin makes baked, steamed, boiled, fried, pan-fried, and some new-style dim sum.

According to the region that Su Xin learned from his grandfather in his previous life, he made Beijing style, Su style, Cantonese style, Chaozhou style, Yang style, Ningshao style, Shanghai style, Sichuan style, and Fujian style. , Dian-style, Qin-style, Jin-style, Northern-style, Henan-style, Lu-style, etc.

Some cakes can’t just be said to be from a certain place, because later with the integration, migration, and change of population culture, many cakes are available in different places, but there are some differences because of regional differences and slightly different techniques, such as There are many kinds of moon cakes, and different categories naturally taste different.

Su Jia was very happy during this time, she had never eaten so many pastries for so many days at once, and her eyes were always shining when she looked at Su Xin.

In the past, I probably didn't have so many opportunities to eat these delicious pastries. The family never knew that this little girl likes to eat pastries and also likes to make pastries.

Su Xin found an opportunity to mention it to Tang Xi, saying that he wanted to teach his little sister how to make pastries. Tang Xi didn't quite agree at first, but under the double "strategies" of Su Xin and Su Jia, he agreed, provided that Su Jia needs to help out in the kitchen and listen to Su Xin.

After more than ten days of observation, Su Xin found that Su Jia was really interested in making pastries and was willing to learn, but she lacked that tendon, and the taste of the pastry was always poor. I don't know if it was because she was still young. Not enough strength.

These days, not only the people of the Su family and the Tang family are feasting, but Mrs. Yao and Ning Wei from Liang Pingzhou next door also have pastries every day.

Every time Su Xin sent pastries, Mrs. Yao would take some out to eat by herself, and the rest would be given away by others, in return, and if Zhuangzi made any delicious food, she would also ask someone to give it to the Su family. Three rooms to send.

Gradually, Su Xin also got to know Mrs. Yao's taste. She doesn't like to eat too sweet, and it's best to put as little oil as possible. Sour or other flavors are fine. When he makes cakes later, he will either be an old man People like to eat, or make a different one separately, and go to the Zhuangzi to see Mrs. Yao from time to time.

The two sides have come and gone. In just twenty days, although Tang Xi and Su Gaoping haven't met Mrs. Yao yet, Su Xin and Mrs. Yao are becoming more and more familiar with each other. Mrs. Yao likes Su Xin's patience and meticulousness. Xin felt the warmth similar to that of grandpa in Mrs. Yao.

During the Chinese New Year, Ning Wei stayed with Mrs. Yao in Chong'an County for a few days. After leaving Chong'an County, he has been busy suppressing the bandits when he went back. Sometimes he can only eat two bites in a hurry when he is busy, and eat something casually when he is hungry. of.

Late January was the busiest time for suppressing the bandits. Ning Wei felt that his aunt seemed to know about his busyness, and sent people to bring him a lot of pastries every day. The pastries were convenient to eat and let him Being able to find time to eat a bite or two in your spare time will not make you hungry.

At the beginning, Ning Wei was thinking about the things sent by his aunt. She knew her own taste and would not send something she didn’t like, but most of the pastries he had eaten were too sweet and greasy. When I ate it, I ate it with an attitude of not wasting the heart of the old man.

To his surprise, the dessert called Ice Flower Cake, which he had never eaten before, was not greasy. At that time, he happened to be thinking about how to lure the mouse out of the hole, so he accidentally ate half of the Ice Flower Cake in the box .

The ice flower crisps have a sweet taste, but the sweetness is very light. Ning Wei didn't feel tired, but felt happy when he ate it. He stared at the ice flower crisps in the box in a daze.

He has not experienced the feeling of happiness after eating pastries for many years.

There is a reason why Ning Wei hates sweet and greasy pastries. When he was six years old, when his father took him out as a guest, he ate a plate of cloud cakes that he liked very much at the time.

Most of the Yunpian cakes are very sweet, and children like to eat them, but not long after eating that plate of Yunpian cakes, Ning Wei suddenly felt very sick. The nausea came very suddenly, and he was just a child. , couldn't help throwing up when everyone was present.

Because the plate of Yunpian Cake was fine for others to eat, it was later said that Ning Wei had no rules outside. Master Ning who took him out felt ashamed and reprimanded him. He is also getting colder and colder.

This incident has happened for so many years, and Ning Wei can't remember which family he lost his temper at that time, but he will always remember the feeling of being pointed out by others, and the feeling of being disgusted by his trusted and adoring father.

Since then, Ning Wei has lost her love for sweet pastries, and becomes more and more disgusted with her age.

Looking back on that incident now, Yun Pian Cake should be fine, he vomited not because of Yun Pian Cake, but because of what Dou Shi did before going out, otherwise why didn't she take her son out with her that time.

Recalling some unpleasant things, Ning Wei couldn't help but picked up two more ice flower crisps and ate two more, which made him feel better.

Looking at the small half of the ice flower cake left in the box, Ning Wei was reluctant to eat it all at once. It was rare to meet a pastry that suits his appetite. He wanted to save it and eat it when he was in a bad mood, so as to make his mood better.

However, the Binghua crisp on the first day was not the end, it was just the beginning, and the pea yellow and Jiuniang cakes delivered on the second day were also in line with Ning Wei's preferences.

Especially the pea yellow, the sweetness is suitable, and even the decorated "goji berry" Ning Wei is not disgusted. The strange thing is that he is not surprised by the Jiuniang cake that he should like.

The Jiuniang Cake was made by the chef of Yaojiazhuangzi according to Su Xin's recipe. The meat stuffing would not taste good if it was cold. Mother Tian, ​​who knew Mrs. Yao's thoughts, asked the kitchen to make mint bean paste stuffing, which neutralized the coolness of mint. With the sweetness of bean paste and the fragrance of fermented rice, it actually tastes just right.

It can only be said that people's tastes are different. No one can explain the taste. It is just a personal preference. Mrs. Yao and Madam Tian both like it, but Ning Wei may not think it is good.

The first day’s Binghua crisp and the second day’s pea Huang Ningwei deliberately left some, but after the cakes delivered every day were all to their liking, Ning Wei gradually stopped thinking about eating the leftover cakes and met his favorite cakes. I will keep some after eating in the afternoon to ensure that I still have something to eat the next morning.

As a person who practices martial arts every day and has a lot of mental activities, Ning Wei has been eating a box of snacks every day for nearly 20 days without gaining weight.

The bitter thing is that Zhao Heizi, Li Mu and others who are close to him, the pastries sent by the old lady used to be distributed to them every time, but recently they may have to look forward to a round of snacks for several days, and they always feel that the adults give them Their dim sum is different from what grown-ups eat by themselves.

But it’s good to have some snacks. Li Mu never picks, only Zhao Heizi always goes to Ning Wei to ask for a piece or two, and he is not discouraged when he is rejected, punished for training, and for running laps, which arouses his feelings for those people. Pastry Curiosities.

These pastries have been delivered for 20 days in a row. Although there are occasional ones that Ning Wei thinks are not so palatable, almost every day there will be one or two that he likes to eat.

After 20 days, the old lady still brought him pastries every day, but Ning Wei found out at the first time that the taste he liked was gone, and he didn't feel the same as before.

20 days is enough to develop a habit. Suddenly there is no pastry that makes him feel happy to eat. Ning Wei feels a little irritable, but now that the most critical time to suppress the bandits is, he must hold on.

As a result, Ning Wei's complexion became more and more stinky day by day, causing many soldiers who followed him to worry about whether they hadn't done well in the things arranged by the adults.

Only Zhao Heizi, who roughly guessed what happened, was happy every day, because he had returned to the days when he could eat delicious pastries with adults.

Ning Wei was in a bad mood, and he became more aggressive in his actions, and the people below were also conscientious and did not dare to relax.

In mid-February, when spring plowing began in Luonan Province, Ning Wei finally led his men to arrest all the bandits who had fled for several months.

When catching bandits, Ning Wei sorted out the military affairs in the army by the way, tidying up the soldiers he is currently in charge of one by one honestly, staying obediently, and going back to the original master if not obediently.

The bandit was caught by Ning Wei, and interrogating the bandit was not Ning Wei's job. He packed up all the bandits and sent them to the state office of Liangping Zhizhou, and then went back to rearrange matters in the army.

The reason why people in the army would take refuge in this or that family before, and engage in internal and external strife, was that they were too idle all day long to do so. Ning Wei asked Zhizhou to designate a large uncultivated wasteland for the army, and arranged for his soldiers Train in the morning and open up wasteland and farm in the afternoon, and strive to have a harvest this autumn.

Most of them were ordinary farmers before joining the army. Although they neglected to cultivate the land after joining the army, they had rules in their minds on how to do it. With the farm tools at their fingertips, a group of soldiers with strength and time quickly cultivated land. A large field came out, and grain was planted in the wake of spring plowing.
