Chapter 216 Let’s make cold noodles together

Su Erya instantly perked up when she heard Shen Yueyao's voice.

"Third Aunt!"

She hurried over to help her third aunt get the things.

Shen Yueyao said: "Be careful, it's a bit heavy, I brought you some delicious food."

"This basket contains fruit strawberries. Go wash them and eat some to cool down."

As she spoke, Shen Yueyao put the basket down.

Su Daya followed in and put down the basket.

There are red strawberries inside.

Old Lady Meng and Su Erya came over to take a look, and were stunned by the bright red fruits in the basket.

This thing looks very sweet and delicious.

And they all looked so delicious. They had never seen such beautiful wild fruits before.

Even the eldest and second children didn't bother to play in the water and ran over to squat beside the basket to watch.

"Mom, it's delicious." Erbao's eyes were bright and he looked like he wanted to eat it.

Dabao also squatted and watched curiously.

The weather is hot in the summer, so the eldest and second babies eat much less than usual.

When it gets hot in the summer, everyone has no appetite.

But eating some sweet and refreshing fruits can actually be very appetizing.

Su Erya was very excited and went to wash strawberries with a basket.

She washed it carefully and placed it on the stone table in the yard.

This way everyone can sit together and eat fruit.

Shen Yueyao said, "Try them all and see how they taste."

As she spoke, Shen Yueyao went into the house to call Su Xueyi.

At this time, Su Xueyi was reading a book seriously at the table in the house, taking notes with a brush in her hand.

Every time Shen Yueyao saw Su Xueyi's handwriting, she thought it was extremely beautiful.

Sometimes when I see his handwriting, I am amazed by it.

Su Xueyi heard the noise, turned around and looked at Shen Yueyao and said, "Mother Yao is back!"

"Well, I found what I needed and picked some strawberries. I just washed them. Come out and eat them together."

Su Xueyi said gently, "Just eat it."

For Su Xueyi, if there is something good, he would be happier if his family members eat it than if he eats it himself.

Shen Yueyao reached out and took Su Xueyi's hand and said, "Let's eat together."

"Besides, you've been studying all day. You should take a break and relax. This is called combining work and rest."

"Besides, it's dark now. It's not good for your eyes to read like this."

Looking at Shen Yueyao's stubborn look, Su Xueyi shook her head helplessly.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yueyao was filled with doting.

"good."

After the two of them went out, they sat around the stone table and started eating strawberries together.

The eldest and second babies became happy while eating.

"Mom, it's delicious. So delicious."

“So sweet and delicious.”

Seeing the happy faces of Dabao and Erbao, Shen Yueyao also felt sweet in her heart.

She felt that the child was happier after eating it than she was.

Mrs. Meng and Su Erya also praised it highly.

Madam Meng sighed, "When I was in the capital before, I had never even seen or eaten such a fruit. If this thing were brought to the capital, it would definitely cause a rush for it."

"It's a pity that this is all I have. I don't know if there are any more on the mountain."

Mrs. Meng ate a few and stopped, thinking that the children would eat first.

Su Daya looked at Shen Yueyao with admiration, and then said to her grandmother: "Grandma, Third Aunt said that these strawberries can be planted. When the time comes, if we plant them in large areas, there will be more strawberries."

"Maybe in the future we can ship our strawberries to other places for sale."

"But Aunt San said that these strawberries are difficult to store."

Shen Yueyao nodded and said, "Indeed, strawberries are best eaten the same day they are picked. If they are left overnight, they will spoil easily and are difficult to store. But we found saltpeter today, which can be used to make ice cubes, and ice cubes can be used to store things. If we store strawberries, we can keep them for a few more days."

"So, Mom, you should eat more. If you can't finish all the strawberries, they will be wasted the next day."

Shen Yueyao could tell that Madam Meng was reluctant to eat it.

So I said this on purpose to encourage Madam Meng to eat more.

After hearing these words, Mrs. Meng continued eating.

The weather is hot and I don’t have much appetite for other things, but I love eating such sweet fruits.

I feel like I won’t get tired of eating any amount.

Su Xueyi was amazed in his heart. His Yao Niang came from that world and knew more than the people in this world.

Every time she goes to the back mountain, she always finds some good things.

Even Su Xueyi admired this.

This thing is really good. If people outside try it, it will become popular throughout the Great Yan Dynasty.

After eating the strawberries, everyone felt refreshed.

After eating some, Shen Yueyao got up and prepared to make cold noodles.

Su Daya and Su Erya both rushed to help.

"Aunt San, we'll help you."

"Yes, Aunt San, I've eaten some strawberries now, and I feel full of energy."

Shen Yueyao was amused and said, "Okay, you can help make it together and learn how to make cold noodles. When the weather is hot, you can all make it and eat it."

Since they were going to make cold noodles, they got busy.

It needs starch and flour.

The three people worked for a while, made the batter, and spread it evenly on the bottom of the plate.

Shen Yueyao said, “The next step is to put water in the pot and boil it over high heat.”

"good."

Su Daya hurried to the yard to get firewood, brought it over, and began to prepare to light a fire.

Su Erya had also put water in the big pot.

Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce to low heat.

Now Su Daya is also very good at burning firewood, and she can control high, medium and low fires very well.

After turning to low heat, put the plate of rice paste into the pot and steam it over high heat for a while, and it will take shape.

After the cold skin is formed, take it out and let it cool in the air.

Seeing the finished cold noodles, Su Daya and Su Erya were both amazed.

It turns out that flour and starch can be used to make things like this.

It looks and feels completely different from noodles.

Shen Yueyao said: "This is the cold skin. You can peel it off after a while."

After cooling, the cold skin is easy to remove from the plate.

Su Erya looked at it, reached out and touched it gently and said, "It feels so smooth and thin."

Su Daya was lighting a fire, but she didn't dare touch it for fear of dirtying the cold noodles. Just looking at it made her feel incredible.

Of course, she also felt a little emotional in her heart, feeling that no matter what it was, it would become delicious in the hands of her Third Aunt.

She had never even heard of the term "liangpi" before.

When I was a child, I ate a lot of delicious food in Beijing, but I had never heard of cold noodles.

It turns out that this is how you can make cold noodles.

"You'll know when you eat it. It's very chewy and refreshing. Next, brush the peeled cold skin with oil so it doesn't stick together..."

While making cold noodles, Shen Yueyao explained the steps to Su Daya and Su Erya.

Both of them listened attentively and took careful notes in their minds.

This way, next time you want to eat cold noodles, they can make it without Aunt San having to do it herself.

Aunt San is very busy on weekdays, so they have to help her do more things.
