Chapter 88 Birthday Cake
Su Mo raised her eyebrows, and put down Gu Xingnian who was writhing in her arms and wanted to see the sheep.

"There's really no need to thank me for this. I'm just talking about it. You are the ones who contribute the money and effort."

Wang Taoqing smiled, but said nothing.

No matter what Su Mo said, they were all clear in their hearts.

If it wasn't for Su Mo, they wouldn't know that apricots could be boiled into apricot paste, and Mrs. Li wouldn't be interested in doing business, let alone sell the apricot paste in Huzhou.

"Would you like to take this sheep into the yard or just put it outside?"

Wang Taoqing said.

Su Mo went over and unlocked the courtyard door.

"Take it into the courtyard."

The shed outside was built with a few logs, covered with thatch, and placed chicken coops and duck coops, so it was not easy to put sheep in.

Su Mo thought about cutting down trees, building a larger shed and surrounding it on all sides, and first used it to raise sheep.

When the time comes, the land can be planted, and the shed will be separated from the middle, and then go to buy a cow and come back to raise it.

Chen Cihai led the sheep in and tied the rope to the shed inside to prevent the sheep from running away.

When the sheep were delivered, Chen Cihai and his wife were naturally ready to go back.

Nowadays, many families in Luoshan Village are opening up wasteland to cultivate land, grow vegetables in their yards, and raise chickens and ducks.

I was so busy all day long that I didn't even have time to gossip and sit and chat over there.

Chen Cihai told Su Mo the feeding precautions he heard from the buyer, and then offered to leave.

"It's getting late, we still have something to do at home, so let's go first."

"Come in, have a drink, rest, and then go."

Su Mo persuaded him to stay, and someone helped him, so he was always happy.

Wang Taoqing smiled and waved his hands, "No, no, it's going to be winter in a few months. Let's take advantage of the time to think about it, and then go to open a field and plant some potatoes."

"Success, then go ahead."

Su Mo nodded and sent the two of them out.

Gu Xingnian was still standing beside the sheep, very curious.

When Su Mo entered the courtyard, she saw her little hands raised and lowered.

With slightly curved eyes, Su Mo walked over and said, "Want to touch the sheep?"

Gu Xingnian's eyes lit up, his head was like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Uh-huh."

Su Mo picked her up and approached the ewe.

"Touch it, don't be afraid."

This sheep is very docile, it stood there with its head down, motionless, Gu Xingnian stretched out his hand, and placed it carefully on the sheep, the wool was soft, and his palms were a little itchy.

She withdrew her hand, a satisfied smile on her face.

Su Mo smiled and asked, "Do you like it?"

Gu Xingnian nodded, "I like it."

"Then the task of feeding the sheep is also entrusted to you, okay?"

Gu Xingnian has an inexplicable sense of closeness to small animals. When the chickens and ducks at home are released, they also like to follow her behind.

Seeing this, Su Mo entrusted her with the task of feeding the chickens and ducks. As for additional meals such as catching worms for the chickens and conch for the ducks, the two brothers Gu Pingan would naturally do it.

Gu Xingnian readily accepted this, and even took the initiative to ask for work for herself.

It's the same this time, Gu Xingnian's eyes were bright, and she patted her small chest.

"it is good!"

This matter is naturally settled.

In the afternoon, Su Mo went up the mountain to cut trees.

Building a shed was not something that could be done in an afternoon. Su Mo chopped up the required wood and piled it aside, waiting to start work tomorrow.

At the time of You, Su Mo sent Gu Pingan to the village, and he returned with the ox cart that delivered the quilts not long after.

At dusk, Su Mo locked the chickens and ducks into cages.

The three of Gu Ping'an went to the beach with a basket, picked up some conch shells and went back to feed the chickens and ducks before dark.

Su Mo washed her hands and approached the ewe with a bowl, ready to be milked.

The ewe was very docile and had enough milk. After Su Mo finished making it, she put the goat's milk into the kitchen and fed it a bowl of corn kernels.

Su Mo thought about making a birthday cake for Gu Ping'an.

The points mall of the system has a wide variety, including butter and low-gluten flour.

And the chickens at home have already started laying eggs. As for milk, goat milk can be used instead.

She even exchanged [-] points for a book of recipes.

It's just that she overestimated her ability to understand and control, especially when faced with the word "appropriate amount".

After steaming the cake a few times with a steamer, it was not soft enough at the beginning, and then it was too soft afterward.

258 couldn't stand it anymore, "The host, there are ready-made cakes in the mall, why don't you just give up.

As for the remaining materials, the system suffers a bit, so how about recycling them at a low price? "

The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched, and he looked at the messy stove, a little unwilling to give up.

But the sky was already dark, and the three children should be back soon. After thinking about it, she gave up and continued to try.

But I didn't agree to 258 either.

The butter is not changed much, and the low-gluten flour can be stored, so there is no need to return it.

Besides, it will be Gu Jinnian's birthday in fifteen days, so there is still a chance to try.

The tall one was chosen among the short ones. Su Mo spread the cream on the selected cake embryos, sliced ​​the apples bought from the county, and put them on top.

A simple and scribbled birthday cake is ready.

The autumn evening was slightly cool, so Su Mo chose a cool place to store it, away from the stove, and there was no need to worry about the cream melting.

Three children have returned.

Gu Pingan skillfully smashed the conch with a stone, and then put it into the food box made of bamboo tube hanging in the cage.

Gu Jinnian scooped up water to wash Gu Xingnian's hands, and specially smeared acacia liquid on her hands to get rid of the fishy smell on her hands.

The dinner was ready quickly, Su Mo called Gu Pingan and Gu Jinnian into the kitchen to help serve the dishes, and then brought in the cake on a plate.

"Don't be in a hurry to eat, let's try this birthday cake. Mother has been thinking about it for a long time."

After putting it down, Su Mo went to the kitchen again, turned the hatchet into a flat-footed fruit knife, and specially roasted it with fire first to prevent the butter from sticking to the knife later.

The three children stared at the cake.

Gu Pingan scratched his head, just like Gu Xingnian, his little head was full of doubts.

This thing is white, is it delicious?

Gu Jinnian's attention was on Su Mo's words just now, which she took a long time to think about...

According to her temperament, she would definitely have a so-called cake on her birthday.

The first time is raw, the second time is cooked, the cake for him will definitely be better than the one for the elder brother.

Thinking of this, the corners of Gu Jinnian's mouth rose.

Su Mo came back soon and saw that the three children were all looking at the cake with slightly curved eyebrows.

It is necessary to light candles to make a wish when eating a birthday cake, but special circumstances should be dealt with specially, and it is not easy to insert candles upwards, so it is still possible to make a wish.

"Ping An, you close your eyes and make a wish on the cake, just say it in your heart, you don't need to say it, or it won't come true."

Gu Ping'an obeyed obediently, and secretly made a wish with his eyes closed.

I hope that my mother will always be the same as now. I hope that he can read less and read less. I hope that my mother will be a master for him and teach him martial arts as soon as possible.

While making a wish, Gu Pingan fantasized about the days after it came true, and it was so beautiful in his heart that he laughed out loud before opening his eyes.

Su Mo and Gu Jinnian didn't even notice.

Only Gu Xingnian couldn't wait to taste the cake, and grabbed Gu Ping'an's sleeve.

"Brother, have you laughed enough, I want to eat cake~"

Only then did Gu Pingan open his eyes, meeting Su Mo's smiling eyes, two red clouds appeared on his cheeks.

It's just that in recent days, in order to avoid learning to read, he often took the initiative to go to the beach to pick up conch, and his fairer face was quickly tanned, and no one would notice his red face.

Su Mo didn't hesitate, picked up a knife that was still warm, cut the cake open, and put it in a bowl.

The cream was redeemed in the Points Mall, so it tasted naturally good. Gu Xingnian's nose was covered with cream, not to mention the sides of his cheeks.

Gu Jinnian cared about his teeth and refused to eat more sweets, and Su Mo didn't force him either.
