Chapter 19 Sensible

"Don't take an inch!"

Su Xiaoxiao had a dark face and pulled the quilt for the three little ones.

The kiss kiss plan failed.

San Xiaozhi closed his eyes regretfully, and obediently stopped talking.

The children had fun and fell asleep quickly, and after a while, there were even small purrs from several people on the bed.

Su Xiaoxiao held her cheeks and looked at the three little ones who were sleeping soundly. She herself didn't know what it was like to have a mother by her side, so she somehow became a temporary mother for others.

Some people want to hold umbrellas for others when they have been in the rain.

But there are also people who inherit the cool and thin genes from their parents.

It was late at night, and the father and son returned with their tired bodies in disarray.

When he got home, Father Su plunged into his house and didn't eat dinner.

Su Xiaoxiao filled a bowl of broth with rice and handed it to Su Ergou: "Where did you guys go today? What happened to Dad?"

The first thing Su Cheng did when he got home was the cry of his daughter and daughter, which was obviously abnormal tonight.

Su Ergou took the soup and took a sip of rice, then whispered, "Uncle Cheng is gone. It was gone five days ago. Dad only got the news today, and everyone rushed over to be buried."

"Who is Uncle Cheng?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Su Ergou sighed: "One of my father's brothers used to walk a few times with my father. His legs and feet were not very good, and then he stopped working. He has been working for people in the town for all these years, and his life is very difficult. In those days of glory, many people came to curry favor with their father. When Dad quit, only Uncle Cheng was still willing to communicate with him. Don't you remember? If you sell the old cow at home, you will have money for treatment."

That was when Su Daya was seven years old, and Su Ergou was five years old. She was too ill and burned out, so only Su Ergou remembered the despair of the family and the new life brought by Uncle Cheng's charcoal in the snow.

also walked through the darts together. Zhang Dao is a sly-eyed wolf, but Uncle Cheng is a lover and a righteous man.

No wonder Father Su is so sad.

Su Ergou was actually very sad: "In the past few years, the Cheng family has borrowed a lot of foreign debts to treat Uncle Cheng. When Uncle Cheng left, he left behind the orphan, widow, mother and an elderly woman. Let alone repaying the debt, life will pass. Can't go down."

There was no lamp in the house, and Su Cheng sat blankly on the chair.

Suddenly, the door was knocked: "Dad, it's me, are you asleep? I'm in."

said, without giving Father Su a chance to refuse, Su Xiaoxiao came to Su Cheng with a bowl of soup and rice.

She didn't light the lights, and the dim yellow candles came in from the main room, which was not too bright, so Su Cheng's slump could be hidden.

Su Cheng didn't want to be too embarrassed in front of his daughter, and said in his usual tone: "Dad is not hungry."

Su Xiaoxiao handed him a note: "Take it."

Su Cheng asked, "What?"

"IOU." Su Xiao's novel.

Su Cheng didn't understand.

Su Xiaoxiao took his hand and put the IOU in his palm: "He Tongsheng still owes fifteen taels. When he pays back the money, take it to the Cheng family."

Su Cheng raised his head suddenly and looked at his fat girl in astonishment.

Su Xiaoxiao let go of his hand and sat down on the stool beside him: "If it's not enough, I have four taels here."

"Enough, enough..." Su Cheng's throat was choked.

"Our family of three can do things, and there will always be money to earn." Su Xiaoxiao is not very comforting, and I don't know if this will make Father Su feel better.

"I won't buy those rouge gouache in the future, and I won't eat Kam Kee's dim sum. The cost is not big. I remember that our family has land. When Wei Ting recovers, let him go to farm the land, and our family will have food. Now, you can save a fortune.

"Look, it's quite enough, right?"

she said carefully.

Su Cheng's throat was so sore that he couldn't speak.

For the death of a good brother, but also for the sensible daughter.

Su Xiaoxiao strikes while the iron is hot: "Father, we will all be businessmen in the future, so we won't waste the money of the villagers, okay?"

The next day, Su Xiaoxiao used all her willpower to pull herself out of the warm bed.

She said it was easy last night, how could she be so optimistic in fact?

All of a sudden, fifteen taels were gone, which made this impoverished family even worse.

There are three people in the family who are doing things right, but there are also seven mouths waiting to eat, and all of them are rice buckets...except for Wei Ting, who was seriously injured.

This guy may be a food bucket after he has recovered. After all, the three little ones can eat spicy food, and their father's appetite should not be bad.

"Fortunately, I bought ingredients yesterday, and I planned to do business today, so don't panic."

Su Xiaoxiao opened the cupboard and took out a large bowl with dough.

In ancient times, there was no yeast, and they were all fermented with old noodles or koji. She used old noodles.

The fermentation time of the old noodles varies with the activity and temperature. Generally speaking, the better the activity of the old noodles and the higher the ambient temperature, the easier it is to ferment.

It is generally two hours in summer and four hours in winter.

She usually kneads the dough before going to bed, and when she wakes up the next morning, it is almost fermented.

Waiting for the dough to wake up, Su Xiaoxiao boiled red beans and mung beans in two pots, soaked the dried plums, and took out the braised pork belly.

She wants to make puff pastry, so she also needs a layer of puff pastry.

Puff pastry is not difficult to make. Add lard and white flour to the fresh egg yolk. After waking up, roll out the puff pastry.

A layer of crust is wrapped in a layer of puff pastry, which makes the puff pastry taste more oily and soft.

She made a total of three fillings: red beans, mung beans, and dried plums.

Finally, the fillings were used up, and there was a little dough left. She had a whim and made a few shortcakes with fat intestines and brown sugar.

"Sister... What delicious food have you made?"

Su Ergou was awakened by the urine, went to the thatched hut, and was seduced to the kitchen by the fragrance.

He hadn't woken up yet, but it didn't affect his eating. He grabbed a cookie and bit it with his mouth open

Su Xiaoxiao: "Hot!"

"Ouch" Su Ergou's mouth was scalded with a blister.

This time, I woke up from a drowsiness, and my tongue was swollen.

But it doesn't affect him eating the cakes made by his sister.

"Sister, the cake you made is even better than Kam Kee's sweet-scented osmanthus cake!"

What he eats is brown sugar flavored. The sugar has completely melted away. It's sweet, with a bit of lard's crispy fragrance. It's delicious to God.

Su Xiaoxiao let him try one of each flavor.

"Are you full?"

"Well, almost."

"Then pack up and get ready for work."

Su Ergou was taken aback: "What are you doing?"

After a quarter of an hour, the siblings went to town with their baskets on their backs.

"Sister, where do we go to sell? Market?" Su Ergou asked.

It is the first time that people go out to do business, and they may be a little bit reluctant to let go.

Su Ergou is very talented, his face is thick enough to be used as the sole of a shoe, can't he let it go? nonexistent!

"Don't go to the market." Su Xiao's novel.

Su Ergou asked curiously, "Where are you going then?"

Good morning
