After a good day's rest, Xu Si felt full of energy today.
"sizzle"
When she heard the sound, she subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound and saw a woman waving at her with a smile.
Then he walked outside stealthily, beckoning to her to follow him.
Xu Si was a little curious. Anyway, her father and the others were all in the shop and they would hear her if she shouted, so she was not worried about safety.
After putting away the silver and money account book, the woman was looking at her at the door.
Xu Si nodded and walked towards the other party.
The two of them came to the corner outside the shop. The woman looked around and then said, "Miss Xu, do you sell Qiaoguo?"
Qiaoguo? Yes, tomorrow is the Chinese Valentine's Day.
“We have no plans to do this.”
An anxious look appeared on the woman's face, and she couldn't help stamping her feet. "What should I do? My fiancé and I said we would give him a bunch of beautiful chocolates tomorrow, but I searched all over the county and found nothing like the usual ones."
"Then why do you think I won't do the same thing as usual?" Xu Si smiled faintly.
"Your shop often launches some rare delicacies, especially the daifuku, I like it very much."
The woman couldn't help licking her lips and said, "So, if there is any unique fruit, I think it must be from you."
Seeing the other person clasping his hands together with anticipation in his eyes, Xu Si thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then I'll make some different snacks, and you can come buy them in the evening."
"Okay," the woman suddenly became happy, "When I get married in the future, I will definitely send you a wedding egg."
"Then I'll wait."
After Xu Si returned, he told everyone about making the Qiaoguo.
"Okay, since we're going to make it ourselves anyway, we might as well make a few more to sell."
"But how do we make this unique snack?"
The snacks that people eat are mainly diamond-shaped, and are made with either fine or coarse noodles.
"If the taste is similar, the only way to win is in the style."
Everyone nodded, agreeing with Xu Si's idea.
"Dad, go buy some molds from the carpenter."
"Row."
Seeing that Shen Anyi was about to leave, Lou Yuexin hurriedly said, "Wait, I'll go with you. I wonder what style you can pick out with your aesthetic taste."
Put flour, oil, sugar, eggs and milk into a bowl and mix well.
Divide into 4 portions, add pumpkin puree to one portion, spinach juice to one portion, and dragon fruit juice to one portion.
If you don’t have yeast powder, add some sweet wine koji, knead the four doughs together, and set them aside to rise.
After it has risen, roll it into long strips and divide it into even-sized portions.
Sprinkle some dry powder into the purchased mold, put the small dough into the mold, press it flat, and finally knock out the fruit.
I bought 6 types of molds, including small fish, flowers, ingots, etc.
Carefully place the prepared fruits on a baking tray and place them into the clay kiln.
"This clay kiln is really well made. It can be used to bake cakes, make pork jerky, and now it can also be used to bake glutinous rice cakes."
Xu Si patted the noodles in his hands and said, "There are more things that can be baked. I will make some other things for you later."
"Okay." Qi Ning was the first to respond.
Su Jinyue tapped his nose, "You little greedy cat."
Xu Si likes others’ support like this, which makes her feel a sense of accomplishment and gives her more motivation to cook delicious food.
After about 15 minutes, I took out the baking tray. The chocolates on it had expanded a lot and had a light milky aroma.
Without waiting for it to cool down, Xu Si picked up one and broke it open. It was fragrant and crispy, and still a little soft inside.
Shen Anyi ate one at a time, "It's delicious, much better than the chocolate cakes I've eaten before."
"Eat less, you still need to sell it." Lou Yuexin said angrily.
"It's okay. We've made so much. Let's eat it first. If there are many people buying, we can make more tomorrow morning."
Xu Si put away the plate of snacks and continued to bake the next one.
"How do we sell these snacks?"
Xu Si kept it a secret, "Well, I already have an idea."
Then he went into the house and took out a bunch of thicker threads, in red, yellow, blue and green.
"What is this wire used for?" Su Jinyue was a little confused. She didn't remember putting this kind of wire in the house.
"I just bought some from the cloth shop next door. I plan to use them to string the glutinous rice cakes together."
"String them together?"
"Yes, the purpose of the glutinous rice cakes is to eat them and to hang them on the body. In the end, they will be strung together. We can do something with them and sell them in strings, saving the trouble of having to buy them out."
Everyone has only a vague understanding of it.
"Then let me demonstrate."
As Xu Si spoke, he picked up a red thread, tied a knot, and slowly made a peace knot. He strung 6 snacks on the bottom, matching the colors, and made tassels at the bottom.
"Okay, this is the finished product." She held up the hole at the top where the liquid flowed out and showed it to everyone.
Lou Yuexin felt very familiar with it when she started making it. "I understand. Isn't this just knitting? It's even simpler than knitting."
Knitting is an ancient traditional handicraft, which is just to tie knots and make them into the shape of bags to hold things.
"Yes, almost."
"That's no problem. We have learned to do it since we were young. Leave it to us."
Lou Yuexin and Su Jinyue each chose a rope and started braiding it with confidence. Their movements were so fast that one could not see what was going on with their fingers, and they made a beautiful knot.
The following steps are even simpler, and in a short while, the two skewers are ready.
When doing other things, the two of them made full use of what they had learned and tied various knots.
Double knot, sparrow's head knot, heart knot, long coil knot, double coin knot, there is nothing they can't do, except what you can't think of.
Qinghuan also joined in. Although her movements were not fast, they were well organized.
In the evening, Xu Si brought out the prepared snacks. In addition to the skewered ones, there were also some scattered ones.
The bunches of strung together snacks are placed side by side, which is pleasing to the eye.
As expected, it attracted many people's attention as soon as it was put on display.
"Miss Xu, your cookies are so pretty."
"Yeah, look at this string, it doesn't look like food, but more like a work of art."
"Give me four skewers so I don't have to make them myself." A man wanted to buy without even asking the price.
Xu Si quickly reminded, "Our string is 5 cents."
"Okay, Miss Xu's food must be expensive for a reason."
The man didn't care. After so long, they all knew the quality of the food sold in the restaurant.
"Whichever type do you want, we have different knots on them."
The man looked at them and picked out 4 different ones.
"Hold it carefully. The long knot and the diamond knot represent a house full of gold and jade, peace and good fortune. The cross knot represents perfection, and the one-way flat knot represents wealth and joy."
The man was a little surprised, "There is actually such a saying for these knots."
"Yes, everyone can buy according to their own wishes."
Everyone became even more interested after hearing this. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, it is good to have a good meaning.
What's more, after eating the glutinous rice cakes, the remaining rope can be used to hang other things.
