Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!

It was already sunset when the two entered the village.

The red sunset shone into every house in the village, and the two walked on the country road.

Quite romantic.

"Brother Xu, you're back." Rong Xiaoliu was in a daze when he saw Xu Wenyan and the other person enter the yard. He hurried forward to help Xu Wenyan take off the backpack.

Since they didn't buy anything, Xu Wenyan had to give each of the children a piece of yellow rock sugar.

But it was such a small piece of rock candy, and the children all enjoyed eating it.

After a quick dinner, Xu Wenyan took out some of the red beans he had bought and soaked them in water. He planned to make red bean buns tomorrow.

After dinner, I had just sat on the bed for a while when Chen Sanlin came in with a basin. The two of them just looked at each other and smiled.

Xu Wenyan didn't expect that this big guy was so good at taking care of people.

"I put the money in the cloth bag in the cabinet. There are a total of fourteen taels and three hundred coins." Chen Sanlin took off his shoes and prepared to wash them together.

Looking at the money in the cabinet, Xu Wenyan touched it and put more than one or two taels of silver from his pocket into it, but he separated them a little.

The silver was directly compensated to Chen Sanlin. He just said that during the day. He would not use the money. He felt better after giving it to Chen Sanlin.

Seeing Chen Sanlin looking at him from time to time, and looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, Xu Wenyan took the initiative to ask: "Brother Chen, what's wrong with you?"

"Why are you staring at that big-butt woman today?" Xu Wenyan knew he was talking about Zhao Mei.

Xu Wenyan smiled: "You also think her butt is big."

Hearing this, Chen Sanlin's face fell and he stopped talking.

Seeing his expression, Xu Wenyan wanted to laugh again, and then raised an eyebrow at him: "Brother Chen?"

Chen Sanlin still didn't speak.

Xu Wenyan simply grabbed his big hands and asked again, "Why aren't you talking again?" Then he pretended to be angry and said, "I hate it most when people don't talk."

"I..." Chen Sanlin was angry but didn't want to make Xu Wenyan angry: "Do you like big butts?"

"Pfft, hahahaha." Xu Wenyan let go of his hand and laughed again: "So this is what you care about."

Chen Sanlin frowned and took back Xu Wenyan's hand: "Really? Or do you like her?"

"No, wasn't I talking about business? You have to look at her when talking about business." Xu Wenyan shook his head. Although he found it funny, he still explained it.

"Oh."

Chen Sanlin was in a bad mood until he went to bed, and he didn't take the initiative to hug Xu Wenyan today.

Xu Wenyan grinned, ignored him, closed his eyes and prepared to go to sleep.

But after a few minutes, Chen Sanlin's hand was still on his waist.

Feeling the warm breath getting closer, Xu Wenyan gradually felt a touch of wetness on his face.

He swallowed and didn't dare to move.

I thought to myself, this Chen Sanlin is really a boring guy.

......

It was another early morning rush.

Because he had promised to supply goods to two restaurants, Xu Wenyan had to get up early. The red beans he soaked yesterday were still in the basin.

After a simple wash, I walked into the kitchen.

The kitchen was renovated bit by bit after the spring, and was only recently completed using yellow mud and wood. The space inside has also become much larger, enough for four people to move in.

Spacious.

After pouring out the water in the basin, you can steam it.

Put the dough aside to ferment. If it is not fermented, the buns will be hard and the steamed buns will have a sour taste.

Then you need to add baking soda to neutralize the sour taste and make the dough softer, and then add a little lard.

Xu Wenyan had already made baking soda when making steamed buns before. He bought some alkali blocks on the market and then used two clay jars to ferment the baking soda.

First put the alkali block into a jar, then add water, add limestone and vinegar to another jar, and let carbon dioxide be produced in another clay jar.

Then just connect the two clay pots with bamboo and wait for them to react.

The baking soda is now ready.

Have you learned it? (Not very rigorous, don't try it randomly)

It’s true, if you learn math, physics and chemistry well, you won’t be afraid of anything!

The baking soda I made once can be used for a long time, and I haven’t used it up yet.

This is also why Rongrong can eat four potato pancakes in one go.

When the red beans are almost steamed, add two pieces of yellow rock sugar to enhance the flavor.

After wrapping the buns, steam them for twenty minutes and simmer for five minutes and you’re done.

Xu Wenyan took a bite himself and found that the noodles made this time were more delicate than before. The red bean filling inside still had a bit of red bean skin, but it didn’t have much impact. It was just not as delicate, and the sweetness was just right.

Several children tried it and all of them said it was delicious!

"Uncle, what kind of steamed bun is this? It's delicious. It's sweet." Chen Dong's teeth have almost grown, and now he can speak without leaking any sound.

Xu Wenyan pinched the little guy's face, he was growing flesh faster than himself: "This is red bean bun, it would be strange if it doesn't taste good."

"Long live little uncle!"

Chen Sanlin and I ate two and then took a few more to eat in the mountains.

After reuniting with Zhou Jianye and his wife and Xiaohu, Xu Wenyan expressed his thoughts: "Second uncle, Xiaohu, can you send the bamboo shoots you pick to my house in the future?"

Wang Cuijuan was stunned and thought that Xu Wenyan didn't want them to pick it. But after all, it was someone else who discovered it, and she wouldn't risk going there without Chen Sanlin.

"Okay, Brother Xu, my family already has a lot of bamboo shoots." Xiaohu answered quickly. Ever since Grandma Zhang passed away, he has treated his two brothers as relatives, so this is nothing.

Xu Wenyan smiled and said, "I'm not letting you work for nothing. I'll give you sixty coins a day. How about that?"

Zhou Jianye's eyes widened, then he shook his head: "No, you guys took us here in the first place, and we have enough bamboo shoots at home now, so let's just consider it as a way of repaying you."

"Uncle, that's not the case. The bamboo shoots won't grow for a few days. I need your help. We have a big demand right now." Xu Wenyan thought for a moment and added, "How about this, if you help me make dried bamboo shoots, I'll give you 80 cents a day?"

The couple were both very tempted. This was eighty cents. The couple could earn one hundred and sixty cents a day. How could such a high price be so great? If they were not greedy, it would be a lie.

Zhou Jianye thought for a while and said, "Give us fifty cents. If it's too much, you will suffer a loss."

Xu Wenyan smiled. This bunch of bamboo shoots costs 25 wen. They can get dozens of them a day. How much will that be? "Then 70 wen. That's it."

Without further bargaining, Xu Wenyan pulled Chen Sanlin and walked forward.

The three people who stayed behind looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

I am very grateful to both of them.

When picking bamboo shoots today, Xu Wenyan could see that several people were working very hard, and it was truly worth the 70 cents a day's wages.
