Whole job?
Qin Xiang'e looked at Ye Yun with curiosity as she went to pick up the mung beans. She had been out all afternoon, why did she use such high-level words when she came back?
What is a whole job?
"His wife, how are things going at your uncle's family?" Qin Xiang'e was more curious about whether Ye Yun's family affairs were handled well than the whole job.
Ye Yun said casually: "Girl, you don't have to worry about things over there."
"okay……"
Qin Xiang'e didn't bother to care about the old Ye family, so she stopped saying anything when she heard Ye Yun's words.
To be honest, she has no feelings for the old Ye family. Her father died because of the old Ye family. As a child, she always feels a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Here, Ye Yun scooped up mung beans.
She and Qin Zheng bought mung beans last time when they went to town. They weighed three kilograms at that time. During this time, some of them were used in making soup, and there was still almost two kilograms left.
Ye Yun took a pound first.
Under the condition of shortage of ingredients and ingredients, she can only rely on the memory of her previous life to use the only ingredients to make the taste as good as possible, so she dare not make too much, otherwise she will waste food if it is not done well.
"His wife, what do you need me to do?"
Qin Xiang'e came over and said.
She didn't want to keep Ye Yun busy. In her mind, Ye Yun's health was not good, so she would try not to let Ye Yun do anything if she could.
Ye Yun thought for a while, "Auntie, clean that little millstone at home."
"well!"
Qin Zheng's family has a small millstone that has been abandoned for a long time, just thrown in the corner of the stove shed.
Qin Xiang'e moved the millstone to the well, took it apart, and brushed it clean. Then she wiped the water off it and let it dry for a while, then moved it into the stove shed and placed it on the chopping board beside Ye Yun.
A round millstone several tens of centimeters in size was placed on the chopping board, occupying a considerable space in an instant.
"This millstone... was made when Zhengzi's father was here!" Qin Xiang'e tiredly wiped the sweat from her forehead and panted.
Since the family lost its pillar of support, no one has ever used this millstone.
Although the millstone is small, it is made of stone and is very heavy. But Qin Xiang'e's face is full of smiles. As long as Ye Yun can use it, she will be happy.
Seeing her like this, Ye Yun couldn't help feeling warm in her heart.
"Auntie, please take a rest first. You will be needed later."
"Eh!"
Qin Xiang'e smiled and agreed, ran out to wash her face, and then hurried back to the kitchen shed, fearing that she would miss the movement on Ye Yun's hand.
Ye Yun is controlling the water for the mung beans.
The mung beans that have been washed are all wet. The water must be drained first, otherwise it will not be ground into powder when it is put on the millstone.
Qin Xiang'e saw that she was serious about controlling herself, so she poured a glass of water and quietly placed it next to her.
After the mung beans were drained of water, the millstone was ready. She put the mung beans into the millstone little by little, and Qin Xiang'e hurriedly grinded them. After a while, they turned into fine powder.
Ye Yun lit the fire, put the mung beans into the pot and steamed them for half an hour.
"His wife, I know this. Are you trying to get rid of the beany smell?" Qin Xiang'e understood Ye Yun's intention and asked with a smile.
Ye Yun also smiled and nodded, "Yes, otherwise it wouldn't taste good."
"You want to make mung bean cake."
"Make a different mung bean cake." Ye Yun said and stuffed another handful of firewood into the pot.
Qin Xiang'e watched intently, and of course started discussing it with Ye Yun.
Said that she also made mung bean cake.
Half an hour later, the mung bean cake was steamed. Ye Yun took it out, smashed the lumped mung bean cake bit by bit, and put it aside to dry.
Now start heating the oil.
In later generations, in order to make mung bean cake taste better, butter was usually used, but now she only has lard and peanut oil.
The mung bean powder has been dried, and Ye Yun begins to put seasonings in it.
One pound of mung beans, one tael of sugar.
Appropriate amount of refined salt to add sweetness.
After that, pour the previously heated peanut oil, press firmly, press into pieces, put it in the pot and steam for another twenty minutes, but this time on low heat.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Yun took the steamed mung bean cake out of the pot.
It was already dark by this time.
A kerosene lamp was lit in the kitchen shed, reflecting the profiles of Ye Yun and Qin Xiang'e.
After the mung bean cake had cooled, Ye Yun cut the mung bean cake into pieces under the light.
The small pieces of mung bean cake have a good color and are particularly eye-catching under the warm light of the kerosene lamp. They are divided into two even halves after being gently broken, making people salivate.
Ye Yun smiled after seeing the beauty.
"Girl, try it?" She handed half of it to Qin Xiang'e and said with a soft smile.
Qin Xiang'e quickly pushed her hand and said shyly: "How can I eat such delicate things? You eat it, or you go and feed it to the old lady!"
The old lady at the door of the hall immediately knocked on the bamboo pole in her hand after hearing this.
"Hungry...hungry!"
"Mom, you forgot about this." Qin Xiang'e then remembered that dinner hadn't been cooked yet, so she quickly picked up a mung bean cake and ran to the old lady, "Mom, please take care of your belly first, and I'll cook for you soon. !”
The old lady hummed, took the mung bean cake and slowly stuffed it into her mouth.
While chewing, he raised his head and stared blankly into the distance, as if he didn't understand why he had to eat so late today, and he also seemed to be looking forward to someone returning soon.
"Mom, how are you doing?" Qin Xiang'e smacked her lips when she saw that the old lady was enjoying the food.
Ye Yun also looked at the old lady eagerly. This was her first time doing something, and the old lady's evaluation was very important to her!
The mung bean cake is not big and will be gone in two bites.
After the old lady finished eating, she paused for two seconds and slowly extended her hand to Qin Xiang'e, "Is there... a famine? Give me some more!"
Ye Yun felt happy.
"There's more! There's more here!" Ye Yun quickly took everything on the plate over.
Qin Xiang'e quickly stuffed it into the old lady's hand.
"His wife, you should also try it. It's just a little bit of food, so you won't be able to eat it." She also didn't forget Ye Yun, and warned her with a smile, "I didn't expect you to have such a skill, Zhengzi will be very lucky now!"
One pound of mung beans, the mung bean cake is just enough for one person.
Qin Xiang'e also picked up a piece and tasted it.
Ye Yun broke off a small piece and put it in her mouth. Although the taste was not as good as what she had eaten before, it was much better than the current mung bean cake.
Okay, she will start tomorrow!
Qin Xiang'e saw that the old lady was not full yet, so she went to make a serious meal.
Ye Yun made a small mat and sat with the old lady, eating the mung bean cake with her all the time.
During dinner, Ye Yun discussed with Qin Xiang'e: "Girl, I want to get some more mung beans."
Qin Xiang'e was stunned.
"What do you need mung beans for? And make mung bean cakes?"
Ye Yun nodded, "Well, I want to do more this time and sell it for money!"
What?
Qin Xiang'e paused while holding her rice bowl, wondering in surprise, how can something as expensive and rare as mung bean cake be sold for?
Thinking back on it, Qin Xiang'e still ran around to get food in exchange for a lot of mung beans!
"His wife, this is enough!"
Half a bag of mung beans was placed on the chopping board, which shook the chopping board. Qin Xiang'e wiped her sweat and asked her for credit with a smile.
Ye Yun silently glanced at the granary at home.
Not surprisingly, it was empty.
Damn it, her aunt wouldn't have bought all the mung beans in the village, right?
