Chapter 6: Chicken cake

After a long time, the red on Han Aiguo's ears faded, and he asked Su Yue, "How many eggs do you want?"
Su Yue didn't dare to be too enthusiastic, and pretended that what had just happened did not happen, and replied, "Give me thirty."
Han Aiguo nodded, and asked Su Yue to bring her basket over and bring her from the egg basket.
His hands are very big, his aunt is distinct, and his fingers are especially long. He can hold three at a time, and the three eggs are like one egg in his hand.
Su Yue stared at his hand until he finished taking the egg, and then asked: "Big brother, how much is the total?"
Although Han Aiguo has been in the army all year round, he also knows the price. If an egg is sold well now, it can sell for seven cents, but most of them can only sell for six cents. He cannot sell it to Su Yuegui. Sell ​​it to her.
Su Yue did not rush to pay him, but continued: "Brother, I want to trouble you with something, I don't know if it will work."
Han Aiguo looked up at her, "You said."
"Brother, I want to borrow some fine noodles from your family. I originally wanted to buy it when I went to the commune to go to the fair. But the farming these days is busy and there is no way to go. I don’t have any fine noodles at home. I want to borrow some emergency noodles first. I'll buy it in a few days and then return it to your house, can you see?"
The reason why Su Yue didn't say to buy it directly was because at this time, every household had limited fine noodles, which was not enough to eat. Generally, they would take it out when something happened, so they wouldn't be used to sell it.
After listening to Han Aiguo, he thought about it and said, "Okay, wait a minute."
He turned around and limped to the kitchen. After a while, he took out a cloth bag and handed it to Su Yue, "This is two catties of fine noodles, and there is no more."
Su Yue took it with gratitude, and at the same time did not forget to thank him, "Two catties are enough, thank you brother, you are really nice."
At this time, the people's speeches were simple and straightforward. How could they say "You are so nice" in person, Han Aiguo was uncomfortable listening, and the roots of his ears were quietly red.
Su Yue secretly smiled in her heart.
I bought the eggs and borrowed the noodles, and there was nothing to say between the two. Su Yue wanted to talk to him more, but it was their first meeting after all, and they weren’t even acquaintances between them. If she lingered here and talked about things, he might think she was. That kind of girl who has no purpose, doesn't have a good impression of her, that would be broken.
For her good image, Su Yue lifted the basket, smiled and waved to him: "Thank you, big brother, I'm going back."
Han Aiguo nodded slightly without saying anything.
Su Yue found out that besides his cold face, this person was still not talkative. He definitely couldn't talk when he had nothing to say. If he had words, he simply said that.
It seems that if you want to get acquainted with him, she has to take the initiative.
When she got home, Su Yue returned the two eggs she had used in the morning, and then put all the rest back in her room and locked it up.
The reason why she bought eggs and borrowed white noodles was because she wanted to make some chicken cakes. One was to relieve her greed, and the other was to see if she could sell them when she went to the market next time. If she could sell the chicken cakes If so, she can also buy more ingredients to make good food and improve her food.
However, the two days are too busy to harvest rice, and the members cannot take time off to go to the market. They can only wait for the end of the busy farming period, when most of the members will go to the market to buy things.
The next day, Su Yue’s stomach was much better. She didn’t ask for leave anymore, and went with other people. Although it was still very painful in the next few days, she finally managed to get through with her teeth, and she finally managed to make the autumn harvest. Passed.
Not only Su Yue, but all the members sighed fiercely, showing a long-lost smile.
Immediately after the autumn harvest, there was a gathering. Before Su Yue offered to go to the fair, Wu Xiaoxiao asked first: "I'm suffocating me. I'm going to the fair to buy things. Do you want to go?"
Li Xiaoqing raised his hand, "I'll go too, there are so many things gone, I have to buy some."
Another educated youth, Mao Lin, also said that he would go, and in the end, everyone except Wei Jia would go.
So the group of four decided to go to the commune to go to the fair together.
The night before the fair, Su Yue took out the eggs and flour she bought into the kitchen.
Li Xiaoqing saw that she had brought out so many good things, her eyes widened slightly, "Su Yue, what are you doing?"
Su Yue simply explained to her while breaking the eggs into the basin: "I want to make some chicken cakes to eat. I don't want to go to the market tomorrow. I also want to try to see if I can sell them. I can also exchange something for some money. "
Li Xiaoqing is not surprised when Su Yue said that he wants to sell chicken cakes, because now the common people in the market are allowed to sell their own food and vegetables, and many common people secretly sell their own food and eat old cloth. This kind of thing secretly Quite a lot, everyone knows it well.
But Li Xiaoqing’s novelty is what Su Yue is going to do. She has never eaten chicken cake when she grows up. She has seen and ate mung bean cake and red bean cake.
Li Xiaoqing didn't return to the room anymore, and asked, "Su Yue, can I stay and have a look? Don't worry, I'll take a look. I'm not going to learn it secretly, I don't have that craft."
Su Yue stirred the eggs, "It's nothing, you can stay if you want."
Li Xiaoqing was very happy and rolled up his sleeves and said: "Is there anything I can help you? Or I will set you a fire?"
Su Yue's thoughts were moved when she heard this. She wanted to ask Li Xiaoqing to help her. If the business can be done in the future, she can't be busy alone, she can't just burn fire. She is still not very skilled in burning fire. It might be a delay in cooking.
But we still have to see if the chicken cake can be sold.
So Su Yue asked Li Xiaoqing to set a fire for her, and she concentrated on the stove, carefully making the first cake since she came here.
An hour later, Su Yue told Li Xiaoqing to put out the fire, and the first batch of chicken cakes was freshly baked.
Li Xiaoqing couldn't wait to get out of the stove and sniffed his nose against the pot, "Su Yue, it's so fragrant and fragrant, how can it taste better than mung bean cake and red bean cake! My saliva is running down."
Su Yue heard it funny, took the steamed chicken cake out of the pot to cool, and at the same time picked up one and handed it to Li Xiaoqing, "Sister Xiaoqing, try it and see if it tastes good."
Li Xiaoqing really wanted to eat it, but she waved her hand and said: "No, no, this is a good thing. It costs so much eggs, sugar and white noodles. I was wasted eating it. You can sell it at the store."
Su Yue grabbed her hand and forced the cake to her, "Eat it, don't you help me burn for so long to eat a cake? Don't tell me, just try it."
"Then I won't be polite to you, I'll eat." Li Xiaoqing was really greedy by the smell, feeling that the greedy worms in his stomach would be hooked out abruptly.
Gently bite down in one bite, soft and sweet, melts in the mouth, and even the nasal cavity is sweet.
Li Xiaoqing's eyes narrowed, and she was busy giving Su Yue a thumbs up, "My Tian Suyue, you are a chef. It's so delicious. I used to think mung bean cakes and red bean cakes are delicious. Now I have chicken cakes with you. It’s a lot of difference. Chicken cake is the best pastry I have ever eaten!"
At this moment, the voice of the system sounded: Congratulations to the host, the chicken cake is rated as c-level, and you can get ten points.
Su Yue looked at the points panel in her mind, and the number on it had changed from four to fourteen.
Su Yue smiled happily.
Li Xiaoqing asked again at this time: "Su Yue, how much do you plan to sell for one dollar?"
Su Yue thought about the current prices, and said, "Tentatively set a dollar and a half."
Li Xiaoqing was stunned, thinking that the price is a bit expensive. At this time, even the rice is less than 1.5 kilograms. Is this piece of chicken cake comparable to one kilogram of rice?
"Su Yue, can anyone be willing to buy this?"
Su Yue also knows that in this era, a penny is a lot. Many people can't bear to weigh a catty home for half a year for six cents and a catty of meat. If they spend a penny to buy a piece of chicken cake all at once, they will not be allowed to be killed. Think it's crazy.
However, whenever there are poor people, there will be rich people. There are always some people who are not short of money. On the contrary, they have money but don't have to buy good food. Such people don't care if they spend some money as long as the food is delicious.
Su Yue plans to sell chicken cakes to these people who don't need money.
Listening to Su Yue's explanation, Li Xiaoqing suddenly slapped her head, "Look at my brain, it's not good for you. Although we are reluctant to buy it, but those who are dual-employees or work in government agencies are all homes. It's not bad, your chicken cake is so delicious, they must be willing to buy it."
"Hope, I have to try it tomorrow." Su Yue took out two more pieces of cake as she spoke, and divided it into two pieces with a knife, turning it into four pieces, and gave three of them to Li Xiaoqing. "Sister Xiaoqing, can you help me send it to the other three people to taste it, I'll put the cake in the basket, and take it to the commune to sell it tomorrow."
Li Xiaoqing looked at the three pieces of pastry a little bit pain, but think about it under the same roof, if there are good things for others to taste, it can't make sense, so she had to endure the pain and send it to others.
Su Yue looked like she felt more distressed than herself, but also funny.
Going to the fair is a characteristic of this era. Before the dawn of the next day, the four educated youths got up and went to the fair.
In this era, there are no buses or tricycles for pulling people. When the members go to the commune to go to the market, they all rely on their two legs to walk.
It takes an hour to walk from Hanjia Village to the commune. Su Yue and the others set out before dawn, and when they walked to the town, it was already bright.
Su Yue was tired and became a dog, and her feet were almost numb.
On the other hand, the other three people are much better, they all just sweat a little, and just take a rest, not as exaggerated as Su Yue.
Wu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said to Su Yue: "Your body is too squeamish. It won't work just to go this way."
Su Yue was also very helpless. Although the body belonged to the original owner, the tolerance level now belonged to her, and she was not as good as the original owner. Her biggest hobby in the past was to stay in the kitchen to study food. She rarely went out for physical exercises, and she rarely walked. She rarely went shopping. When she went out, she mostly drove. The road is still rough and uneven.
Too much trouble.
