Chapter 83 These abdominal muscles are really strong, hehe...
Zhao smiled and handed them two cream cakes: "You are in for a treat. Xia girl is making new desserts. They will be ready soon. Have two of these cream cakes first."
"Hey, why is this different from the previous steamed cake? Hmm? It's delicious, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. What's this white thing? It's soft and fluffy. I can't explain it, but it tastes good."
"Cream, the white thing is cream, and the cake is baked, not steamed."
Zhao looked proud of it.
The man from the same village couldn't help but nod and kept praising, while the other one said nothing and just kept eating.
The cake wasn't big and was gone in just a few bites.
"Our girl Xia has a very smart brain." The man praised with a smile after finishing his meal.
This statement was recognized by everyone. Yu Banxia ignored them and kept observing the oven.
When the incense burned out, he went forward to open it. The pastry peeled open and the egg tart was bubbling. When it came into contact with air, it slowly suffocated.
It worked in just one go.
"The egg tarts are ready, Dad. Come and have a try." Yu Banxia called out happily to the people in the room.
Hu Zi was the first to rush over and shouted excitedly: "Aunt, what are egg tarts? Let me see!"
"Here, for you, little greedy cat." Yu Banxia handed him a plate, and Hu Zi took it without eating it himself.
He took one and gave it to Yu Hongwen: "Grandpa, you eat first."
"Well, it's not in vain that I love you." Yu Hongwen said with a smile.
Hu Zi laughed and divided the fruits among his friends one by one, keeping the last one for himself.
Yu Banxia smiled and nodded, and Yu Bandao also came over holding Yingyue.
"Second sister, try it."
"Okay, let me try it." Yu Bandao took what she handed over.
Yu Banxia distributed the roasted ones and took one for himself to taste. Hmm, it tasted the same as the ones sold in later generations.
Three ovens were used to bake together, and a total of more than 140 cakes were baked.
After tasting it, Zhao was still not satisfied, but she still asked her doubts: "Xia girl, you said you wanted to sell it in town, but there are no ovens or ice cellars in town, how can we do this?"
"Don't worry, auntie. I have already asked my brother-in-law to arrange for someone to go to town to build an oven."
"Let's sell the crispy cakes first and the egg tarts a little later. It's the principle of rare goods being more popular. Do you understand?" After hearing what Yu Banxia said, Zhao and others finally understood.
Everyone responded happily and started learning how to make crispy cakes.
Yu Banxia also lay down leisurely on the rocking chair and leisurely practiced his wood-related supernatural powers.
Yu Bantao and Yu Banyue took Yingyue and Xia Lian and were talking in low voices not far away. They were picking vegetables to make side dishes and looking towards Yu Banxia from time to time.
If any children playing in the yard passed by, Yu Bandao and her sister would speak out to stop them.
Because Yu Banxia said that she might be practicing while lying down.
The breeze is blowing and the years are peaceful.
The summer in ancient times was not very hot.
In the evening, Yu Banxia opened her eyes and saw Zhao washing her hands by the well. She said cheerfully, "Xia girl, there is not a single fly or mosquito in your house. How did you do that?"
"There are so many flies and mosquitoes in my house that I get bitten all over every night."
Yu Banxia asked her to wait for a moment, then went to the room and got some medicinal herbs she had made.
"I sprinkled this medicinal stone around my house and outside the fence, but I didn't do much. Later I will study mosquito coils to repel mosquitoes."
Yu Banxia saw the other aunts also looking at her and quickly spoke up.
The women were not unhappy. After all, it was Zhao who asked first, so it was normal to give it to her first.
"Xia girl, you don't have to worry too much. The free clinic will start tomorrow, and there will definitely be a lot of things to do. Did your uncle tell you to let a few boys from the village accompany you to the clinic?"
An aunt spoke up.
Yu Banxia shook his head and said, "No need to arrange personnel. I have already made an agreement with the head of the pavilion. Yamen runners will be sent to maintain order when the time comes."
"Erniu and his friends will follow me. They used to be the bullies in the town, and ordinary people don't dare to mess with them."
"That's good, but let's take a few young men with us. They are all brothers in our family, and we will feel more at ease if they follow us."
Aunt Wen also spoke.
Seeing this, Yu Banxia did not insist any more and said okay with a smile.
After washing their hands, everyone said goodbye and went home. Yu Banxia lay down again, with the sounds of insects and frogs chirping in his ears, feeling extremely comfortable.
A breeze blew by, the roses trembled slightly, and waves of fragrance came.
"Xia Xia, it's time for dinner." Yu Banyue shouted while standing at the kitchen door.
Yu Banxia sighed, stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
During dinner in the evening, Yu Hongwen and his wife also said some words of caution to her, and then nothing more was said.
After eating and taking a shower, Yu Banxia fell asleep soon after lying on the bed.
Yu Banyue and Yu Bandao came in and saw her sleeping soundly on the bed. Both of them showed a look of heartache on their faces.
"After this girl came back from her suicide, she only rested for a few days, and then she has been working hard. At such a young age, she has shouldered too much."
"She was not ambitious at first, and she was always chasing after Xu Xiucai, which gave us a headache."
"Now she is working so hard to make her family and the whole village rich. It makes me feel sad to see this." Yu Banyue touched her cheek with heartache and said to her second sister.
Yu Bantao sighed, sat down on the other side of Yu Banxia, and said softly: "Who said it wasn't true? Although my sister is capable, I am proud of her."
"But she's too capable now, and I feel uncomfortable. I feel like a loser. I can't help her, and she has to worry about everything."
Yu Banyue nodded, and Yu Bandao took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's go out and talk. Don't wake up Xia Xia. She will be busy again starting tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go out and talk." Yu Banyue nodded, and the two sisters walked outside together.
As soon as the door was closed, Yu Banxia turned over and muttered, "These abdominal muscles are really strong... hehehe..."
Fortunately, the two sisters were out, otherwise they would have been frightened after hearing this.
The next morning, Erniu and his friends were already waiting at the door.
While Yu Banxia was eating breakfast, Fan Cuilan kept reminding her: "Girl, free clinics are easy and complicated, you must pay attention to safety. If you can't, hide first and retreat to a safe place, understand?"
"I know, mother. Not to mention that your daughter is not a powerless person, even if she is, there are still the government and Erniu and the others."
"Okay, Mom won't say much more. You should eat quickly and leave early after eating." Fan Cuilan nodded with a smile.
Yu Banxia hummed and quickened her eating speed.
After dinner, she took her medicine box and went out, along with Erniu, his five men and three young men from the village.
It was also the first time for the three young men to go out with Yu Banxia, and they were all too embarrassed to talk.
Erniu was not idle and was talking to Yu Banxia. Goudan and the other three were also familiar with her. They chatted and laughed along the way and soon arrived at the town.
