Chapter 31 Toon Cake

"Brother, brother, brother is the biggest - brother, brother, brother is the biggest -"

Su Xiaosi's loud call spread throughout the fields.

Aunt Niu took the cow to graze, and when passing by the Su family's field, she pinched Su Suisui's little face.

Su Suisui held her face in her hands, smelling the strong smell of cow, and stuffed a bag made of leaves into her palms. "Na na!"

Su Jingyi opened the packet of leaves and said, "It's white winter melon seeds!"

"How embarrassing!" Shen Biyu looked at the man and the cow going away, and sighed: "Last time, the money to pay for the cattle was hidden in the napkin. This time, I gave you white winter melon seeds. Aunt Niu is really I like Suisui!"

Su Suisui was hugged by Su Suisui, her childish laughter was grandma's.

She is proud, she is proud, she has contributed to the family.

Shen Biyu was plucking the tips of wild peas in the rapeseed field. She was worrying that her family would have no more land to grow vegetables in the small field. She was worried that she would have to look for wild vegetables this year, when Aunt Niu's white winter melon seeds arrived.

I happened to sow the white winter melon seeds on a low slope next to my field. In the future, if I follow the vines, weed and water the manure, the white winter melons will grow on the low slope.

"A'niang! A'niang!" Su Jiaojiao jumped back from nowhere, with her clothes tucked away and her eyes bright.

"Auntie, look what I found?"

Shen Biyu picked up a bunch and put it under her nose to smell, "Such a fragrant toon."

"Where did you pick so many?"

Su Jiaojiao carefully packed her bag and jumped up and down happily, "Mom, let's spread toon cakes and fry toon fish today!"

"My grandma and I like fried toon fish, and my dad and sister like toon pancakes!"

"well."

Just as he was talking, a woman in silk clothes came over waving a fan, her butterfly steps swaying on her head.She raised her chin and looked at the person haughtily.

There was no need to fan on this day, and she had no intention of fanning. The important point was to show off this beautiful round fan and the small jade pendant hanging from the fan handle.

She shook her head on the village road for almost a whole morning, just to let people know that she was now richer, could afford to wear silk clothes, wear fine jewelry, and paint fans with jade. She was richer than Su Laoer.

Unfortunately, it was spring plowing and most people were in the fields. It was inappropriate for her to wear this outfit to go to the fields. It seemed like she was deliberately showing off.

Fortunately, she picked up Shen Biyu's mute nephew outside the hut, and now she had a reason to show off in the fields.

"Sister Xu, my mother! Sister Xu, my mother!" The woman walked up the field with her skirt in hand, waving a fan enthusiastically. "Your mute nephew is looking for you!"

The grass on the field is heavy and brushes against the silk skirt, making a slight "swish" sound.She felt a little distressed, the silk fabric was not durable, and she shouldn't have come down, but more and more people in the fields straightened up and looked over.

There was no turning back.

Xiao Qianxi followed silently, feeling desolate in his heart.

Who knows, he was getting lost as he was about to leave and go back to his home and come back to repay his kindness later.

He walked for a long time, so long that the morning porridge was completely digested, and then he didn't know where he was.

He returned the same way based on his memory, and walked nervously for a long time, and then he found himself in the latrine in the village.

Then a woman dragged him away and said she would take him to his aunt.

"This is Zhao Di'er Niang, please walk slowly!"

Shen Biyu, mother and daughter, looked at Zhao Di Niang walking towards her with nervous expressions, followed by an even more nervous Xiao Qianqi.

Zhao Di Niang scraped the dirt from her embroidered shoes onto the weeds and said, "Your mute nephew found you in the hut."

"Oh?" Shen Biyu looked at Xiao Qianxi.

Xiao Qian's nerves tightened.

Leaving without saying goodbye is going to be discovered?
He also wanted to resign, but he was mute and couldn't say it.I want to write a few words, but I can't find paper and pen.

"This kid is sensible. Come and help me with some work." Shen Biyu laughed and rubbed Xiao Qianxi's head.

Xiao Qianqi frowned and started pulling weeds inexplicably with his messed up hair.

Grass!What kind of grass do you want me to pull out personally?
Su Jiaojiao happily put the toon in front of him and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Wang Baxian. Let's eat this for lunch!" Xiao Qianxi frowned even more. Isn't this a bud from a tree? Can it be eaten?
"Thank you so much, Zhao Di'er, for bringing my nephew over!"

Zhao Di Niang waved her hand and looked at the weeds on the field as if they were facing a formidable enemy before embarking on her return journey.

There were jokes everywhere.

"Zhao Di'er is so rich! She is willing to go to the fields to wear such expensive clothes!"

"Zhao Di'er has the ability to make the people in the house live a good life!"

Su Xueying was no longer worried.Zhao Di's mother is living so well, Zhao Di must be living even better.

After returning home, Su Jiaojiao picked up a wild egg that was still stained with chicken excrement, "Mom, let's use this egg to make Chinese toon cake today!"

Shen Biyu was tying her apron while watching Su Yuxing wash the toon buds.

"With so many toon sprouts, how can one egg be enough?"

Xiao Qianxi hugged Su Suisui. Su Suisui was grinning and drool dripped on his arm, and he had to wipe it away.

It's just wiped, wiped, nothing.

Is this baby made of saliva?
The water in the pot was boiling. Shen Biyu opened the lid, picked up a little salt, and poured in the washed toon buds. When they were picked up again, the toon buds all turned green.

Chop the blanched Chinese toon and put it into a basin. Sprinkle with flour and stir, so that every bit of chopped Chinese toon is evenly coated in flour.

"Thump thump thump thump thump!" Shen Biyu beat six eggs in a row, sprinkled them with salt and beat them up, and then stirred the toon into paste again.

Xiao Qianqi was disdainful, would this little tree branch be delicious if sprinkled with some salt and mixed with some eggs?
None of the dishes he had eaten since he was a child had only salt.

Su Jiaojiao and Su Jiaojiao stood by the pot and sniffed fiercely. Su Suisui, who was in his arms, was also waving his little paws excitedly and barking.

He couldn't help but sigh: It's so poor here.

"Hey——" The white lard melted in the pot.

Shen Biyu quickly spread out half the pot of paste with a large spoon and commanded like a general: "Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao, add more fire!"

"Yes, Ma'am!"

Shen Biyu used a spatula to turn the dough over one by one, without breaking any dough. The turned side was golden and bright with a slight green color.

Xiao Qianxi felt something was wrong.

Soon there was a plate of toon cakes piled high on the stove, golden on both sides and steaming hot.

"Auntie!"

"Auntie!"

"Ah!"

"Abba!" Xiao Qianxi didn't understand why he screamed too. He wanted to slap himself, but he couldn't do it while holding the baby.

Why is he still holding the baby?
Su Jiaojiao and Su Jiaojiao have stopped lighting the fire. Why don't you take the baby back?
Shen Biyu understood, scooped up a few cakes and handed them over one by one.

Su Jingwei pouted and blew, then took out a piece of cake and said, "Thank you, Auntie!"

Su Jiaojiao pouted and blew, then took a piece of cake and said, "Thank you, Mom!"

Su Suisui pouted and blew a mouthful of saliva, then pinched it and said, "Aaah!"

The spatula was in front of him again.

Not pouting was his last stubbornness. He held a piece of cake that was still a little hot in one hand and said, "Aba, Aba!"

He doesn’t want to eat this twig cake!But it was a bit hot. I was holding the baby in my other hand and had no place to put it, so I reluctantly put it in my mouth.

His eyes lit up.

OMG it smells so good!
