midsummer.

breeze.

Lin Dajiang took the uneven table to the yard.

There are six people in the family, except the youngest one, everyone else is slurping noodles.

It was my first time eating cold noodles with long-bearded worms, sauce, and a big spoonful of lard. It tasted better than ever before.

Xiao Lidong pinched Li Taohua's collar with his hand.

“Ahhhh” he kept screaming.

"This kid wants to eat noodles!" Li Taohua laughed and picked up a noodle and put it into Xiao Lidong's mouth.

Lidong leaned over and licked it.

“Ahhhhh~” Clapping hands and dancing.

next second.

With a whine, he bit off half of it.

"Lidong is really strong!" Lin Dajiang ate the noodles in three or five mouthfuls and opened his hands: "Taohua, give me Lidong, you eat it quickly."

Li Taohua handed Lidong over to Lin Dajiang.

Lin Xiaoman went to the kitchen to get a bowl, picked a few noodles from her own bowl, and gave it to Lin Dajiang.

"Dad, let Lidong have a taste."

"It's okay, Lidong has rice noodles." Lin Dajiang was about to push the bowl back, but Lidong immediately pouted and looked at Lin Xiaoman aggrievedly.

"Woooo..."

Hey, her cheap brother is so cunning.

She knows how to act like a spoiled child at such a young age.

"Dad, I'm not hungry. It's not enough to just eat rice noodles on the beginning of winter. I need to eat some mashed meat and vegetables." Lin Xiaoman loves this adopted brother.

If it gets fatter, it will definitely be cuter.

Although she is a food blogger, she also meets many mothers who specialize in making baby food at food blogger conferences.

So as for complementary food, although I have never made it, I have watched a lot of videos.

She thought at the time, it was a pity that she was an orphan and must have never eaten the loving mother's brand complementary food.

"Lidong, remember this, you were raised by your elder sister with her money." Lin Dajiang was teasing his younger son, but Lidong grabbed his hand and started biting it.

Li Dajiang groaned, cursed him as a bad boy, and picked up a noodle and stuffed it into his mouth.

Lin Lidong's eyes lit up and he immediately swallowed it slowly.

Lin Jingzhe ate two large bowls and felt his stomach, still feeling unsatisfied.

"Really delicious!"

He burped and felt that the recent days were a little unreal.

It has been many years since I have eaten so much that I burped.

"Dad, are we going to catch bugs later?"

Lin Dajiang, holding his son, waved without hesitation: "Go!"

Dinner is over.

Lin Jingzhe had just cleared the table.

Suddenly there was a violent storm.

It rained heavily for a while, with no sign of stopping.

Lin Jingzhe stood under the eaves and stretched out one hand to catch the rain.

Frowning with a look of regret.

A burst of rain blew away Lin Dajiang and his friends' plan to catch the long-bearded insect.

Li Taohua was cleaning here and there, and seeing the head of the household and his son looking worried in the rain, she immediately joked, "What's the matter? Just take a break on rainy days. You know, in the old house, we had to worry about the house leaking. Now we can finally relax."

"You have to accompany Xiaoman to Ruyi Tower in town tomorrow, so you can go to bed early. This is a big deal for Xiaoman." Li Taohua said with a smile.

"Oh, this is the only way." Lin Dajiang stopped thinking about catching insects in the rain and focused on entertaining Xiao Lidong.

Sometimes he held little Lidong high in his arms, and sometimes he held little Lidong on his lap and rocked on a rocking horse, which made little Lidong giggle.

"Boss, don't shake Lidong dizzy."

Lin Dajiang chuckled: "How can that be possible? We are still strong in the beginning of winter..."

......

The summer rain came with great force and never stopped.

The next morning, Lin Dajiang took Lin Xiaoman into town.

It had rained all night and the path was muddy. Lin Xiaoman slipped every two steps.

Because of the rain, the ox cart could not be used, and the father and daughter could only walk forward, one step deep and one step shallow, holding on to each other.

The journey that was supposed to take more than an hour ended up taking two hours.

Fortunately, they set out early and arrived at Ruyi Tower before breakfast was over.

The shopkeeper Tong of Ruyi Tower was looking forward to it, and immediately came over to greet the father and daughter when he saw them.

"It rained so heavily last night. Is it difficult to walk on the road?"

"Good morning, Uncle Tong. I came here through the mud."

Lin Xiaoman felt that whether the road was easy to walk on was secondary. The thick, wet mud stuck to his straw shoes, which felt heavy and cold, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

It was not convenient to walk into Ruyi Tower directly with muddy shoes, so Lin Dajiang took a piece of rag and scraped it again and again, and finally managed to scrape away most of the mud on Lin Xiaoman's shoes.

Upon seeing this, Shopkeeper Tong immediately ordered the waiter to bring a basin of hot water.

"It's hard to scrape off the mud. Now the weather is hot, rinse them with hot water and the straw sandals will dry quickly." Shopkeeper Tong said with a smile.

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Dajiang washed the mud off their shoes with hot water and felt refreshed instantly.

"Uncle Tong, prepare two kilograms of flour. We can make jelly right away." Lin Xiaoman took out a set of clean clothes from the backpack, "Uncle Tong, do you have a place to change clothes?"

When Shopkeeper Tong heard about flour, he subconsciously asked, "Is jelly made of white flour?"

After asking, she realized that this question was unnecessary, and smiled and asked the waiter to take her upstairs.

He recalled the taste he had yesterday, "No wonder it tastes so good, it turns out it's made of white flour!"

I just wonder what method was used to make it, it is so smooth and refreshing.

He was anxious to know, so he asked the two people sent by the boss who were waiting in the kitchen to come out and learn how to make jelly with Lin Xiaoman.

The best white flour is also prepared.

Since he had sold the recipe, Lin Xiaoman did not hide it. After changing his clothes, he took the flour and started kneading the dough.

Faced with two people who were used to doing kitchen chores, they knew what to do without even watching, and even Shopkeeper Tong had some doubts in his mind.

Could it be that this jelly is just like noodles, which are kneaded into pieces by kneading them?

Looking at it this way, it’s a loss of twenty taels.

How many servings of jelly do they have to sell to earn back the twenty taels?

In such a short time, Lin Xiaoman kneaded the dough. She didn't need to look at Tong's expression to know that they must be worried.

Actually, it’s not difficult to make jelly.

Those who know the method can learn it after doing it three or five times.

But who can blame the people here for not knowing the method?

"The prepared dough needs to be left for half an hour." Lin Xiaoman looked at Shopkeeper Tong.

Shopkeeper Tong was anxious, worried that something might go wrong and he wouldn't be able to explain it to his master.

"Dacheng, Dayong, just follow Miss Lin's steps and do what she says. Miss Lin can still watch you." said the shopkeeper Lin.

"Uncle Tong, this step is just a simple kneading of the dough. The important things are yet to come, so don't be anxious." Lin Xiaoman said slowly.

During this half hour, Lin Xiaoman was not idle. She explained the moisture content of the dough and the strength needed to knead the dough one by one.

She also specifically instructed that the step of letting the dough sit for half an hour after kneading must not be skipped.

Half an hour later, Lin Xiaoman began to wash her face.

When she put the dough into a small basin of water, Shopkeeper Tong and Dacheng and Dayong, who were learning from her, were all shocked.

Won't this flour fall apart when it comes into contact with water?

Although the three were puzzled, no one interrupted Lin Xiaoman.

I saw the clear water in the basin gradually turning white.

"This is washing the dough. Wash out all the flour in the dough until there is no more flour left. This step is completed."

Lin Xiaoman demonstrated as he spoke.

Shopkeeper Tong felt that Lin Xiaoman was not washing her face but rather washing clothes. She rubbed the water repeatedly, causing the clear water to become turbid.

Then the second time, the third time...

Until the fifth time, there is no powder left to wash off.

"Uncle Tong, this basin of flour and water needs to settle for two to three hours. When the water and flour are separated, slowly pour out the clear water on top and leave the flour paste at the bottom."

Shopkeeper Tong stroked his iconic beard and looked at Lin Xiaoman and said, "How could such a simple-looking jelly require so much effort?"
