Traveling through the famine years, the best old woman, I was gnawed into the richest man by my children and grandchildren Chapter 62 You are the first day of junior high school, I will be the fifteenth day, hug for hug
Chapter 62 You are the first day of junior high school, I will be the fifteenth day, hug for hug
In the kitchen shed, Lin Tao crushed the tartary buckwheat. The flattened tartary buckwheat turned into powder, and the soft shell remained on the grinding stone.
After grinding everything, the last step is to pass it through a fine sieve.
Leave the shell in the sieve and the tartary buckwheat noodles will be sifted out, that's it.
After finishing all this, it was time to cook.
Lin Tao took the newly made tartary buckwheat noodles, added water and kneaded it into a dough, then shaped a cake for each person, put the paste on the pot and baked it slowly.
Don’t be afraid of its bitter taste, but the nutritional value of tartary buckwheat is richer than other staple foods!
Whether it is protein, fat and rutin, vitamins, chlorophyll, inorganic salts and trace elements, it is more than twice as high as wheat, rice, and even sweet buckwheat!
Not to mention the medicinal value of tartary buckwheat, which is unmatched by other staple foods!
After baking the cakes, Lin Tao took rice and cooked porridge.
I picked up two bowls of pickled wild vegetables that the old lady had pickled herself, and carried them to the yard.
“Come and eat!”
One tartary buckwheat cake per person, not too much.
Regardless of the addition of tartary buckwheat cake, Lin Tao has not reduced the amount of porridge.
Xiao Li Qian looked at the brown pancakes in the dustpan and asked, "Grandma? What is this?"
"Try it, it's called tartary buckwheat cake."
"Is it the one grandma picked back yesterday?"
Lin Tao said "hmm", broke off a small piece and stuffed it into Xiao Li Qian's mouth.
Xiao Li Qian first frowned and licked his lips, then the expression on his face changed.
That's right! The salivary amylase in saliva can break down the starch in food into glucose.
The light sweetness of the seeds not only reduces the bitterness of the tartary buckwheat, but also enriches the taste.
"Yeah! It's delicious!" Xiao Li nodded and said, "Nai, you are so awesome!"
Then I was so excited that I gave it to Xiao Linglan and Xu.
Li Er next to him looked in disbelief. After trying to eat a piece, the expression on his face also changed subtly.
Li Si had sharp eyes. When he saw Lao Er's family eating it, no one said it was bitter, so he immediately started eating it too.
As for Li San, for him, eating is just to fill his stomach.
It doesn't matter whether it tastes good or not.
After taking a bite, the second elder of the Li family couldn't help but ask: "Peach, how did you do it? Although it still has a bitter taste, the texture of this cake seems a bit like flour!"
That's right! One is wheat and the other is buckwheat.
If they are not alike, can they use the same surname?
I have eaten a lot of thin food in a row, but now I have a dry meal, which is very comfortable.
Especially Li Yi, who was so lazy about cooking, rubbed his belly and exclaimed several times: "Yum! The food couldn't be more delicious!"
After cleaning up, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Zhu cleaned up and washed the dishes together.
The old lady came over and asked in a low voice: "Taozi, this house that your father and I live in was built by ourselves. It's time for you and the children to earn money. This winter may not be easy this year."
After all, he is a person who has lived for decades, and his eyesight for autumn and winter is always very accurate.
"Mom, you two don't have to worry about making money."
If extreme disaster weather comes, it will be a good time for her to make money!
This whole day, the Li family courtyard was very busy.
Thanks to the brutal sun, the newly-paved wall did not collapse.
In order to save trouble, the two elders eliminated the door panel and woven two straw curtains to block it, which was regarded as the door.
Thinking of going to bed early at night, Lin Tao's cooking time was also advanced.
Just like at noon, it was also tartary buckwheat cakes and porridge. The difference was that Lin Tao took the wild vegetables that the old lady used to cook in the porridge, soaked them, and then fried a large plate with lard.
The scent attracted the two little ones to lie on the window and drool.
When the food was brought to the table, it was the time when the villagers were going down the mountain to go home from their farm work.
"Ouch! What are those dark pancakes that the Li family eats?"
"I heard that Mrs. Lin went to town to set up a stall, selling some kind of fairy tofu, and the business was very prosperous."
"What's the use of prosperity? It seems that the money she earns can only buy some moldy flour! Look at the price of food in the town these days. Let me tell you, the food in our fields is still valuable.
! In a few days, the grain in our fields will be sold for a lot of money!"
Lin Tao looked up and saw that it was Gong Qiaoer's family.
Seeing Lin Tao looking at her, she raised her head higher, with her two big nostrils facing Lin Tao.
"We! We are much richer than those who have no land!"
Li Er, who heard the contempt in his words, stood up suddenly, clenching his fists loudly.
Li Si, who reacted quickly, pulled him away.
Lin Tao raised her hand and pressed it, and Li Er sat down sensibly.
"I just planted a few pieces of land! This year's rain has been poor, and there are a lot of empty millet husks! Even if it's harvested, I can only sell it to get some rice. Besides, today, if we continue like this, we won't be able to do it.
Well, here come the locusts! Maybe even the empty shells can’t be saved!”
This time, it was like lighting up firecrackers. Gong Qiaoer and his wife suddenly changed their faces.
"Bah, bah, bah! Mrs. Lin, you have a bad conscience, don't you? You can even say such things! If there is really a locust plague, you just sell your whole family and you won't be able to buy food! I advise you, my heart
It’s better to do better! It’s you who will be spared the suffering!”
Lin Tao put the cake back into the bowl and stood up. Even though Gong Qiaoer's mother was swaying her head, she couldn't help but look at Lin Tao.
"Oh, I'm so miserable! I'm so miserable that I can only eat cakes made of rice and flour! It's not like your family. They grow rice all year round but eat millet. Ahem! I know, your family is picky! Eat it!
Not used to rice and flour!”
"You..." Gong Yixin and his wife were so angry that they blew their noses and stared.
Gongjiazhai had two rice crops a year, but if it was planted on the emperor's land, he had to pay the emperor for grain.
It's just that after paying the grain tax, the little food left is not enough to feed the family. I have to take the rice to the rice shop and exchange it for millet or bean sprouts. It is a blessing from my ancestors that I don't go hungry!
As for expensive things like flour, I heard that people in the Ming Dynasty eat more of them. Southerners like them may not be able to eat them even once after growing them all their lives.
Gong Qiaoer dragged her old mother away from the courtyard wall: "Mom, she doesn't deserve to make you angry!"
The family walked away, followed by villagers passing by, casting envious glances at Lin Tao.
Someone asked in a low voice: "Is that really flour?"
"Probably so." Someone whispered.
"But why do I see that the cakes made from flour by others are white, while hers are black?"
"Maybe it's like what Gong Qiao'er said, it's mold?"
Li Er, who had been holding it in for a long time, yelled: "You are the ones who got moldy! This is tartary buckwheat cake! Don't be blind if you haven't eaten it!"
Everyone ran away with confusion on their faces.
Lin Tao didn't stop the second child either. When it came to dealing with the outside world, she felt that she couldn't be weak!
As long as you are being reasonable, you can't let others take the lead!
Because the bad nature of bullying is engraved in some people's bones.
The reason why some people don't show it is just because they feel they are no better than others.
Once they feel that you are inferior to them, this bad nature will naturally show up!
The more times this happens, the less you can give in!
Only by having a tough attitude can these people give up the idea of bullying! This chapter has been completed!
