Chapter 67
Ning Chen sat on the side and stuffed mints into his mouth, and he didn't forget to stuff one for Su Shi too, making Su Shi dumbfounded and refused Ning Chen, so he stopped. He wanted to feed Su Banxi, but Su Banxi was very busy. Ning Chen couldn't get close, so he could only sit side by side with Su Shi and stare at the movements of Su Banxi's hands with his cheeks puffed out and some mints in his mouth.

"Uncle, what is Xixi doing? Why can't Chenchen help?" Ning Chen blinked and looked at Su Shi with big eyes.

Su Shi affectionately stroked Ning Chen's head. Because of sleeping, Ning Chen's originally tied hair was a little loose, and a little bit of black hair slid to his cheeks and drifted away with his external movements, making that innocent face The innocent and handsome face was a little more imperceptibly cold and surly, "Xiaoxi will make delicious food for Xiaochen, because Xiaochen can't do it, so I can't help Xiaoxi, and Xiaoxi told Xiaochen , You should eat less of these mints, or your teeth will fall out."

Ning Chen suddenly covered his mouth with his hands and stared wide-eyed at Su Shi who was smiling all over his face. He looked at the slightly green mints on the stove with some hesitation, the tip of his tongue touched the little mints left in his mouth, and his eyes rolled Gu Lulu turned around a few times, and when he was about to reach for the mints, Su Banxi, who had finished the rice noodles, came back and patted him on the back of his hand, with a slightly serious expression: "I told you not to eat more, why are you disobedient."

Ning Chen puffed up his cheeks, and after all he listened to Su Banxi's words and withdrew his slapped hand. Although Su Banxi looked seriously at it, the back of Ning Chen's hand was just red and slightly painful, and he didn't react much. Ning Chen giggled Swallowing the sugar in his mouth, he rubbed it to Su Banxi's side and asked without shame: "Xixi, Xixi, can you tell Chenchen what you are doing?"

"I'm making mint cake." Su Banxi replied without looking up, wrapped the sucrose in white gauze and smashed it with a small hammer. Finally, seeing Ning Chen's eager face, she put the small hammer in his hand and pointed The bag of gauze said: "Crush all the sucrose, and reward a candy when it's done."

"Well, Chenchen will do it well." After finishing speaking, Ning Chen carefully lowered her head and tapped on the gauze bag, missing Su Banxi's slightly smiling but not very warm eyes, but it quickly disappeared. While Ning Chen was crushing the cane sugar, Su Shi had already boiled the fire. Su Banxi mixed water into the pot, threw in a few freshly picked mint leaves, and waited until the water boiled before placing the cage on the pot. Ning Chen had already crushed all the candies, and waited for Su Banxi's praise with wide eyes.

Su Banxi was not stingy either, and the corners of her mouth curled up: "Chenchen is the best, go get a mint candy, don't take too much, lest if you eat too much, you won't have a toothache, and you won't have your share of the chicken soup at night."

Ning Chen obediently took only one piece of candy and squatted beside Su Shi's legs. The scorching fire made the corners of Ning Chen's eyes a little strangely red. The sharp and cool mint candy was sucked into the mouth, and the sweet and burnt aroma of sucrose mixed with the freshness and coolness of mint dispelled the burning heat brought by the fire.

Su Banxi poured the finely crushed sucrose particles from the gauze into the fine rice flour, mixed the two evenly, took the steamed mint leaves from the large enamel plate next to her and spread them neatly on the bottom of the steamer, then spread the clean cloth on the steamer. Spread the rice flour evenly on the drawer, and press it firmly. It should not be too thick or too firm, otherwise it will be difficult to cook. It is the first time for Su Banxi to make the mint cake, but the movement is very skillful, and it is ready after a few presses. Covered and sealed tightly, Su Shi was asked to burn the fire vigorously, roughly noted down the time, and then Su Banxi helped Su Shi to go under the locust tree to take shelter from the cool.

Ning Chen had been sitting by the stove and staring at the steamer and white smoke, making Su Banxi shake her head and laugh, and walked up to him, "Is there anything else uncomfortable about Chenchen? Does the head still hurt? Does the throat hurt?" Is it dry and painful?" There is no medicine for wind and cold at home, but the medicine is only three-point poisonous, and it is not true that the illness is extremely serious, Su Banxi will not let his family take medicine easily.
