No Worries about Food and Medicine

Chapter 3: Snowflake cake

Sui Sui grabbed his clothes corner, and the urn said: "No, no."

Yu Jinnian frowned at her.

Sui Sui only whispered: "I dreamed of a terrible ghost ghost. It was holding a very long chain. It said that the time had come. It was time to hook my mother's soul ... Woo ... Xiaonian, I Mother, will she be okay? She wo n’t be taken away by ghosts, will she ... "

Hearing that it was n’t Er Niang ’s illness, Yu Jinnian felt relieved, reached out and touched the little girl ’s head, and pulled the sleeves to gently wipe the tear marks off her face. Sui Sui is not afraid, Er Niang will definitely get better. "

Sui Sui was half-trusted and still refused to sleep. Yu Jinnian persuaded him not to say so long, and said, "Wait for me for a while." He went to the kitchen and put half a bowl of glutinous rice in a small porcelain bowl. You put it on the bedside of Er Niang, the ghost is scared when he sees it, and he dare not come. "

"Really?" Sui Sui asked, blinking his big eyes.

Yu Jinnian nodded: "Naturally, when did Xiaonian cheat you?"

Seeing that Yu Jinnian was so determined, Sui Sui bowed his head for a moment, then took the glutinous rice bowl, and ran to Er Niang's room, carefully placing the porcelain bowl on the bedside, and then bowed his head respectfully, and read it. A few words of "Buddha bless", just climbed into bed, curled up next to the second mother and fell asleep.

Yu Jinnian saw from the door slit that she was asleep, and smiled lowly: "It's still a little girl, it's a lie." After closing the door, she couldn't help feeling depressed. Sui Sui is a good deceiver, but Yu Jinnian can't deceive himself, even though he studied under Qi Huang's famous doctor in the last life, he is at a loss for Xu Erniang's illness.

According to Sui Sui, Er Niang was only suffering from abdominal pain and bloating at first, because she only had one episode from time to time, and she didn't take it seriously. When she was in pain, she only boiled some soft and condensed porridge to eat. Later, abdominal pain became more and more frequent, and my body was losing weight quickly. This made me ask the doctor. After seeing it, the doctor said that it was stomach pain, and that it was full, and there was even somehow to come. The witch doctor said that Er Niang was put down by the villain. The shortcomings are inconsistent. In short, there are many mouths. The soup pills have eaten a lot, but people are not good again and again.

By Yu Jinnian's time, it was said that he had vomited several times of blood, and the person was also thin and disfigured.

He was not that stone-hearted person. Er Niang received him and treated him well. He naturally did n’t want to see her so painful, but ... Yu Jinnian walked back to his room and could n’t help sighing—in modern terms, Xu Erniang got it. The disease is probably advanced gastric cancer, even modern medicine is helpless, not to mention the ancient conditions with poor conditions? So even if the decoction no longer works magically, it is just a delay, and it is just a delay.

——Nian Niang is afraid of getting better.

Yu Jinnian lay on his back on the couch, looking at the tassels on the bed curtains that were swaying in the dark night. I thought of Xu Erniang's sickness in my mind, and I thought of my own experience for a while. Shi Cai just blurted his eyes.

This closed eyes, but fell into a dream, very messy.

This dream disturbed Yu Jinnian, exhausted, and as soon as the sky leaked, he woke up with a tired face. He opened his eyes and listened to the rooster crowing three times before he barely regained his energy. After washing with cold water, he quickly turned into the kitchen and Boil the water and prepare the pasta camp for a day alone. Since Xu Erniang was ill, the income in the store was gradually unable to pay for the medicine. The former second daughter of the school was only able to resign, so there is only one labor available in Jinnian here and abroad.

While waiting for the water to boil, Yu Jinnian lay on the stovetop, wondering what snacks to make today. As the hot water in the pot boiled, he looked at the glutinous rice that coaxed Sui Sui yesterday to exorcise, and suddenly came Plan.

He tidied up the kitchen, soaked a spoonful of glutinous rice in clean water, and ran to the store to open the plate. After a while, diners came in one after another. Some regular customers saw that the small food stall outside the store had not yet been put up, and laughed at him humorously: "Don't you get lazy again, Xiao Niang?"

Yu Jinnian pursed her lips and did not argue with others.

Fortunately, people in Xin'an County prefer to eat some porridge soup dumplings, so there are not many customers who come to "One Bowl Noodle House" to order noodles early in the morning. Yu Jinnian has served his distinguished guests with ease and time. Make a snack and sell it.

The food he came up with this morning was called "Snowflake Cake".

Because of the late summer and autumn, the weather is getting colder in the morning and evening, and it is not suitable to eat those cold things again, so I want to make a snack that nourishes the spleen and stomach. At this moment, I thought of this snowflake cake. .

He first washed the glutinous rice, fished it in a sea bowl, and added a little clear water to steam it. Adding firewood under the stove to make the stove more vigorous, he turned his head to make the filling in the cake. The filling was also simple, that is, black sesame and white sugar, but there were several troublesome steps to make it.

Yu Jinnian reheated the pot, pour a small bag of black sesame seeds into it and stir-fry. After a while, the water in the sesame seeds was roasted and dried, and the small black sesame seeds leaped at the bottom of the pot, exuding a rich aroma He stood next to the pot and sucked a big scent. He was so surprised that he could not say, "Xianjia is a food bait, and the valley is longevity." This scent just feels like a beautiful figure, not to mention daily consumption. It might really be immortal.

He transferred the fried fragrant sesame into the garlic mortar, added a handful of white sugar, and pounded vigorously until the black sesame and sugar were all smashed into scum. At this time, the glutinous rice on the drawer is also steamed. The hot glutinous rice must be hammered repeatedly to make it hammered soft and delicate, before it can be used to make snowflake cakes. He twisted his arms sore, but he couldn't stop. He hurriedly brushed a thin layer of oil on the case, spreading the soft glutinous rice on the case while it was hot, with a thick layer of sugar and sesame in the middle. Then spread another layer of soft glutinous rice on top. Finally, twist the fried sesame seeds on top to make it look good.

Looking at the cake, Yu Jinnian always felt that there was something missing. He frowned for a moment, and suddenly pulled his leg away.

The diners in the front hall saw the young boy hurried out of the store, and they were not screaming. But when he was puzzled, he saw that he came back with his corner of his mouth. It happened that Sui Sui also woke up and found the kitchen after the fragrance, and saw Xiaonian washing the petals.

This time around Yu Jinnian, the hot cake was also slightly cooler. He washed the petals of the rose in his hands and cut them with scissors to make small pieces. They were sprinkled on the pastry sporadically. After enjoying the moment with satisfaction, he took the knife. Once in the cold water, hurry up and down with a few knives.

With neat and square blocks, the sweet and fragrant pine sticky snowflake cake is ready.

Sui Sui was lying in the old place on the window, and wowed, "It's so beautiful! Can the flowers on it be eaten?"

Yu Jinnian lost his smile: "Why did you want to eat petals when you woke up?" He took off a piece of pink petals and handed it to the ear of Spike's gluttonous mouth. "You taste it?"

Sui Sui “ahhh” bite, chew it in her small mouth, her pink and tender face wrinkled ... yuck, it seems, it tastes nothing.

Yu Jinnian saw that she was so cute that she was left behind after a busy morning. She reached out and picked up the spike from the window sill and smiled and asked her if the petals were delicious or not. Sui Sui realized that he had been deceived. Two small hands with flesh straightened and pressed on Yu Jinnian's shoulders, shoving him while shouting: "Sui Sui doesn't like Xiaonian!"

"Haha," Yu Jinnian squeezed her face and used a small saucer to put a piece of snowflake cake to coax her, "Don't like Xiaonian brother? Then I won't eat snowflake cake for you."

"Don't eat!" Sui Sui snorted, and later opened her eyes to secretly scorn the white sweet cake, her expression tangled, and seemed to be doing a very serious psychological struggle. After a while, she reached out and patted Yu Jinnian's shoulder , Reluctant to say, "I still like you a little bit ..." After I finished, I went to eat the cake, and finally looked at the face of the snowflake cake, and I emphasized while eating: "It ’s just a little bit. ! "

Yu Jinnian touched her head and said that she was generous and did not care about her "little little" little girl. She turned around and prepared the snowflake cake, which she sold in the front hall. Many of the diners who come and go to the "One Bowl Noodle House" are for daily novelty snacks. Seeing today is a sandwich of soft cakes, each cake is the size of a palm, half black and white, decorated with red powder petals It is as beautiful as red plums and snow, and it has a mouth-watering sesame aroma, which makes the index finger move. Without much meeting, the snow cake filled with drawers sold a lot.

Someone asked with a smile: "Brother Xiaonian, you tell me, what is the name of this cake today?"

Yu Jinnian nodded academically and said, "Naturally there are. This sesame is a sacred product for liver and kidney, and essence and blood. Glutinous rice can also strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach. You see it is getting colder and eaten Wouldn't these two things be right?

The man asked again: "What is the name of this petal?"

"This ..." Yu Jinnian frowned and thought, suddenly surprised for a moment, "Naturally for the sake of good looks! Why, isn't it pretty?"

The street neighbours who came to buy snowflake cakes laughed and nodded: "Good-looking, good-looking. Not only the younger brother's craftsmanship is beautiful, people are also beautiful!"

Yu Jinnian also laughed: "Over award, over award. Since it looks good, why not buy more?"

Neighbors, you said it to me, and the lively half morning passed. It was almost noon, Yu Jinnian prepared a large pot of miso toppings to be used at noon, and washed a small basket of cucumbers, simply made a pat of cucumbers as a side dish, filled it with a big face basin, and served In the shady part of the front hall, a small dish was put on, saying that there was no limit to the amount of money, and the diners were asked to eat more and eat less.

Everyone raised their heads and didn't see their heads down. Although they hadn't seen such a selling method, they had been novel for a while, but no one chewed this small dish of cucumber cheaply.

The day was getting bigger. Yu Jinnian was holding a cup of cold bamboo tea, nesting behind the counter to settle accounts, but saw two carriages stopped in front of his shop.

He squinted and looked out, seeing that the carriage was hung with Luo Luosuizi at the four corners, and the magpie and plum were carved on the flower window. It was very exquisite, and there were several strong family members who followed the car. Team.

Sure enough, a girl was drilled in the car ahead, and a small silver hairpin was inserted in the hair bun. Just looking at the dress, she knew that it was not something that ordinary people could afford. Yu Jinnian only put down the pen, and then he heard the girl come in proudly and opened his mouth to ask, "What about the owner?"
