Chapter 8 Did you add sugar?

The boys followed him with cheers, and when they got out of the door, the boy who took the money trotted over respectfully and handed the money over: "Boss, it's not that this shop is in a good location..."

Brother Deng took the money and slapped it over again: "It's so good. No matter how good it is, it's just at the end of the market. How can it be better?"

As he spoke, he put the money in his pocket, smacked his lips and said, "On the other hand, Shen Jing'an is full of ink. If he really gets admitted, he will be an official in the future..."

The younger brothers didn't understand, so Brother Deng slapped them again: "We are lending money. If we know a few more officials, we will have a better future. Do you understand? Didn't you just listen to what he said? We are lending money to He borrowed it! He will repay us whatever we lend him. He has accepted our kindness, and when he becomes prosperous in the future, he will naturally repay us this kindness!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch the stubble on his chin: "Hey, why didn't you think of this earlier! Isn't it much better to have an official backer than this shop?"

Brother Deng figured it out, and Lin Yan also figured it out now.

She glanced at Shen Jingan with some admiration: "I've wronged you."

Shen Jingan's body was already weak, and his face became ugly after all this trouble. He sat down on the table and said, "I was the one who caused the trouble. Why are you aggrieved?"

If buying ginseng hadn't cost him his life, his father wouldn't have borrowed the money, nor would he have worked day and night to pay off the debt. In the end...

Shen Jingan's eyes turned red when he thought of his father.

Huang was so anxious and scared that she didn't understand anything. It took her a long time to come back to her senses and grab Shen Jingan's hand: "An'er, are you going to take the county exam next year? No, no! If it weren't for this year, You won’t catch a cold even if you take the county examination..."

Shen Jingan clapped her hand helplessly and sighed: "Mom, I've told you many times that my catching a cold has nothing to do with the county exam. It's just my own carelessness."

However, Mrs. Huang believed that if she didn't take the county examination, she wouldn't stay up late reading or catching a cold, and she refused to let Shen Jingan go again.



After all, it was because of his poor health and weak resistance! Lin Yan sighed in his heart and did not argue with them.

He quietly withdrew and returned to the kitchen to see her face.

At this time, the temperature is gradually rising, and the dough is fermenting very quickly. In the short period of tossing just now, the dough has fermented more than half. After a while, you can make steamed buns.

Lin Yan tightened the cloth cover on the basin again and waited for the dough to ferment for a while.

She went to dig through the eggs she had just bought.

Lin Yan looked at the eggs, hesitated for a while, kept one, and put the others back.

I originally bought this egg to fry it with vegetables and use it as a stuffing for steamed buns.

But now, she suddenly couldn't bear to eat it.

Eggs are still very nutritious, and she wants to keep them for Shen Jing'an to eat.

Brother Deng gave up asking for a shop this time because he took a fancy to Shen Jingan's potential.

Lin Yan knew very well how useful it was to get an official position in a feudal society like this.

Therefore, if she wants to live here and live well, she still has to see how successful Shen Jingan can be in studying.

And as for Shen Jingan, this sick young man...

If he wants to study, he must take good care of himself.

Otherwise, if you wait for next year's county examination and catch a cold again, then...

Since Lin Yan didn't want to make steamed buns, he changed it to steamed buns.

Steamed buns are faster to make.

Scoop out the fermented dough and deflate it, roll it into long strips, cut it into evenly sized pieces with a knife, arrange the shape slightly, and put it into a rice cooker to steam.

Steaming steamed buns in a rice steamer is still a bit difficult, but it is enough for their family of three.

Before putting the steamed buns in, Lin Yan remembered that he needed to find a cloth pad at the bottom.

When I used to make steamed buns, I had prepared paper mats of various sizes at home, both large and small. I haven’t used a steamer cloth for a long time.

In desperation, she washed her hands and went to find Huang again and asked her if she had any unused cloth at home.

Of course, Mrs. Huang had some. Seeing Lin Yan begging for it, she quickly asked her what she wanted to do and if the clothes didn't fit her.

Lin Yan then introduced the steamer cloth, and Huang's hands stopped turning things: "Cotton cloth?"

Where can I find cotton in this house?

If you really have cotton cloth, how can you use it to steam steamed buns?

There's no need to waste it like this.

Lin Yan also noticed that her noodles had already fermented. If she continued to toss them, she would be afraid that the fermentation would be overdone and would not taste good.

So he quickly asked: "No? What kind of cloth are there?"

Mr. Huang then took out the cloth and said, "How can we find such fine cotton in this house? We usually use more burlap."

Lin Yan's eyes lit up: "That's okay!"

Although cotton is definitely better, burlap is not impossible, as long as it can be used as a pad.

As he said this, Huang had already turned out the linen.

Only half a horse, it seems even less.

She took the scissors out of pain and asked how many she needed.

Lin Yan thought about the size of the rice steamer, and when he saw her distressed look, the data came to his lips, and he turned a corner and changed it to the size of a custom-made steamer.

If it's bigger, just make it bigger. Just fold the edges so that when the steamer arrives tomorrow, the cloth can still be used.

You don't have to eat buns once to waste a piece of cloth.

Lin Yan only asked Huang to cut one piece.

Although she customized the steamer, she currently needs four pieces of steamer cloth.

But she also knew that fabric was expensive.

Although she knew that she could earn more from steamed buns.

Moreover, no matter how much Huang felt sorry for these cloths, Huang would give them to her if she wanted them.

But Lin Yan thought that he would wait until Huang had finished eating the steamed buns and the steamer arrived before continuing to ask for them from her.

By then, Mr. Huang probably won't feel any pain anymore.

Lin Yan took the cloth, washed it carefully several times, then spread it to the bottom of the rice cooker, and then put the steamed buns in it.

The rice steamer was very small. Lin Yan adjusted the angle several times and could only fit seven or eight steamed buns and an egg.

After putting the steamed buns on the stove to steam, Lin Yan washed the vegetables, cut them into sections, added some salt, and cooked them into vegetable soup.

There is no meat, and I can't bear to put eggs in it. This kind of vegetable soup tastes a bit astringent, but eating it with steamed buns is quite refreshing.

The vegetable soup is good, and the fragrance of wheat will come out.

Huang couldn't hold the needle anymore and ran back and forth to the kitchen several times: "This is a steamed bun? It tastes so good. Did you put sugar in it? It's a little sweet."

Lin Yan couldn't help but find it funny: "No, wheat itself has a sweet taste."

"Is there any?" Huang was confused, sniffing hard and staring at the rice cooker with wide eyes.

Her face is particularly delicate, and Shen Jingan has inherited it from her. She is particularly handsome.
