Chapter 487 Wu Dalang's Spring 2
Chapter 487 Wu Dalang's Spring 2
Now she let Wu Dalang go, which clearly shows that she despises him. He didn't despise her when she was ugly before, and he said in the last life that she would still like him even if he was ugly, short and poor. She can't just go against her own face.
Zhang Xintong holds Wu Dalang (the male protagonist is short and ugly, and the female protagonist is beautiful. The author's hand is shaking when writing this. If you don't want to read it, jump. Please don't scold me.)
"Da Lang, I do."
Wu Dalang turned around in surprise
"Madam, are you really willing?"
"Yes, I do."
With such a beautiful lady in front of him, Wu Dalang couldn't help himself. Soon, Zhang Xintong was left with only a bellyband. His rough hands moved from her navel upwards...
High mountains and flowing water seeking a soulmate...
"My wife, Jinlian, I will definitely treat you well"
"okay"
Many fragments flashed through Zhang Xintong's mind, including himself, Gu Yan, Huo Ting, Jing An, Chen Sijin, Liu Juntian, Leng Xiao, Shen Qingchen, Han Chen, Ji Yun, Situ Moran, Lu Yanche, Yu An, Mo Yan, Zhou Hanqing, Qi Qingyang, Qin Meng, Otto, Yin Yan, Sheng Yu, Lan Bo, Murong Yeli, Shao Qian, Yan Luo, Song Hao, Xie Silang, Ouyang Zimo, Jiang Cheng, Ao Qingxuan, Ye Zhan, Wang Sheng, Long Yize, Xiao Yu, Lu Yunling, Feng Qingyang, Ling Ling, Yan Mubai, Sun Wukong, Fu Chen, Ying Zheng, Qiao Xu, Cheng Wu, Cheng Li, Cheng Wen, Zhuang Zhou, Bai Luochen, and the people in his memory gradually became clear.
Zhang Xintong smiled. It was just a shell. Whether it was beautiful or ugly, tall or short, what did it matter? How could the relationship between them change because of the shell?
Zhang Xintong turned over and pressed Wu Dalang, her whole body charming. She pulled off her bellyband and leaned over to kiss Wu Dalang on the lips.
"Sir, I will serve you."
The shabby bed creaked all night long, and Wu Dalang was so excited that he almost died in bed.
Wu Dalang didn't expect that his wife was still pure and innocent, and didn't dislike him at all.
"My lady, thank you for not despising me."
Zhang Xintong hugged the person and kissed him
"Sir, you are very capable. I am very satisfied."
Wu Dalang buried his head under Zhang Xintong's collarbone, his honest voice filled with longing.
"Madam, will it be okay in the future?"
"If you want, my lord, I will accompany you."
"My lady, I want to now"
Zhang Xintong teased
"You're not selling pancakes anymore?"
"We just got married and need to rest for a few days."
Wu Dalang begins a new round of demands
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Sir!"
"Madam, I'm here"
"Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Dalang"
"Madam, I'm here"
Three days later, Zhang Xintong helped Wu Dalang put on his clothes.
"Sir, I will accompany you when you come back in the evening."
Wu Dalang went out to sell pancakes with trembling legs, sweat dripping from his head, and it was unclear whether it was due to the heat or weakness.
"Tongtong, do you want to hear some good news?"
"What good news?"
"A new drug has just been added to the main system."
"I have all the medicine in my space. What good news is this?"
"Tongtong, this medicine can make people tall, mighty, and heroic."
Zhang Xintong's eyes lit up. Although she didn't care about Wu Dalang's appearance, Wu Dalang must have wanted to become tall, mighty, and heroic.
"Xiao 9, how many points?"
"It only costs 100 points, but there's a small flaw."
"What flaw?"
"It can only last four hours a day."
"Then I'll just buy three, that'll be enough."
"Tongtong, the effects cannot be stacked."
Four hours is 8 hours, which is okay.
"So when do these four hours start?"
"You can choose this at will. If you take the medicine at 8 am, you will look tall and mighty from 8 am to 4 pm every day. If you take the medicine at 8 pm, you will look tall and mighty from 8 pm to 4 am every day. You can choose this time at will, it depends on when you take the medicine."
"Okay, have one!"
"Okay, you had 5330 points before. The Ginseng Monster was a small world, earning 330 points; the Dog's Sudden Awakening was a small world, earning 320 points; and the Ice Age Survival Game was a big world, earning 380 points. Now you have 6360 points. After deducting 100 points, you have 6260 points left. Tongtong, here's the medicine."
Zhang Xintong put the medicine away and waited for Wu Dalang to come back to give it to him. As for when he wanted to take it, that was his choice and Zhang Xintong would not interfere.
In the previous life, the original owner lived in Qinghe County for more than a year. Zhang Xintong planned to pack up Mr. Zhang and move out. She would not live there for long. The house belonged to someone else, and she did not exchange her belongings.
Before moving out, we must save some money and improve the cooking methods.
The pancakes Wu Dalang made were a bit hard and not very tasty, but they were barely enough to make ends meet because they were cheap. The original owner wanted to expand Wu Ji Pancakes and make more money, so he had to improve the pancakes.
In the Song Dynasty, Yuan Dynasty, and Ming Dynasty, "chuibing" referred to steamed buns, which were different from sesame cakes.
Chui bing, originally steamed in a steamer, was primarily made from flour, with toppings of fruit and vegetables, and seasonings such as salt, cooking oil, and sugar. Because Song Renzong's name was Zhao Zhen, and the Chinese characters for "Zhen" and "Zheng" sounded similar, people at the time changed the name from "chui bing" to "chui bing" to avoid the taboo. This type of pancake is equivalent to what we later call steamed buns.
However, it is not a simple steamed bun, but a steamed bun with stuffing.
Zhang Xintong began making old dough. Old dough refers to the dough seed used for leavening. In northern China, it's called "leaven fertilizer," "starter," or "yeast," and in some regions, "dough starter." It's the small amount of dough left over from steaming buns. Because it contains a lot of yeast, it serves as a starter for the next batch. Steamed buns made with this dough from the previous fermentation are called "old dough buns." In contrast, steamed buns made directly from yeast (either dry or fresh) cannot be called "old dough buns." Old dough often contains lactic acid bacteria during storage, and if left to ferment for a while, it develops a distinctive sour flavor. Therefore, when steaming buns with old dough, baking soda is added to neutralize the sourness.
Zhang Xintong, a cooking student, handled these tasks with ease. She placed the dough in warm water to speed up the fermentation process and mixed several fillings. By noon, she had five steamed baskets of fluffy, soft buns. There were solid buns, some stuffed with cabbage, some stuffed with radish, some stuffed with sugar (the sugar industry was booming and cheap during the Song Dynasty), and some stuffed with pork (pork was cheap and mutton was expensive).
The chuibing sold by Wu Dalang were solid steamed buns, each costing eight wen, about the same as one yuan. Other vendors sold them for twelve wen, more expensive than Wu Dalang's.
Zhang Xintong calculated her costs. Her solid steamed buns cost about 4 wen, and they were better than Wu Dalang's. She planned to sell them for 10 wen each. Cabbage and radish stuffed buns cost 6 wen each, and she planned to sell them for 12 wen each. Sugar stuffed buns cost 9 wen each, and she planned to sell them for 15 wen each. Pork stuffed buns cost 10 wen each, and she planned to sell them for 16 wen each. Regardless of the type of bun she sold, she would make a profit of 6 wen each.
Wu Dalang usually did not eat lunch. He would wait until all the pancakes were sold before going home to eat in the evening.
