Chapter 8 Meatball Soup VS Spicy Pork Intestine

The meatball soup tastes good, steaming hot with vinegar and coriander. It would be even better if there were dried shrimps, but there was no such thing here, so Li Mingxia didn't dare to take it out. However, Li Mingxia had other ideas about this seasoning. But no matter how delicious the meatball soup was, it still had to give in to the spicy and numb spicy pork intestines. After the meal, except for Li Mingdong who was too young to eat spicy food, the rest of the people had their mouths full of oil. Even the soup at the bottom of the plate was eaten up by Li Zhengde with the bread.

"Burp, sister, you are really amazing now. I have never seen the dishes you cook. It would be great if you could do this every day. It would be a life like a god." After eating and drinking, Li Zhengde's mind was a little unfocused. He basically said whatever he thought of.

Li Mingxia tapped Li Zhengde's forehead in annoyance, "Is this the life of a god? You are so useless!"

"Take a break, then cheer up and help me."

These two days, these children have been well fed by Li Mingxia. They become starry-eyed when they see her. When they hear that Li Mingxia has something for them to do, they become more excited than ever.

"Sister, there's no need to rest. How tiring can it be to just eat a meal? Just tell us what you want us to do." Li Zhengde said immediately.

Seeing the excitement of the three children, Li Mingxia felt a little helpless. "Okay, you guys clean these red fruits and then pick out the seeds inside. This step is very important. Pick them out thoroughly."

A lot of red fruits have been collected at home in the past two days. Making them into hawthorn cakes and hawthorn rock sugar porridge and selling them is enough for two to three days, so it is not a small project. Even Zhang came to help with the washing.

Taking advantage of this time, Li Mingxia secretly took out some sugar and rice from the space, mixed them with the ingredients and started to cook sugar porridge.

If it were winter, we could make candied haws, but now it’s summer and we can’t store them if we make them, which is a pity.

The method of making hawthorn cake is very simple. The wooden board mold is replaced by a clean wooden square found at home. Anyway, it only serves as a frame to demould it into a square shape. It doesn’t matter whether it looks good or not.

Li Mingxia cut the bright red hawthorn cake into a hundred small pieces, and stuffed some of the leftover pieces directly into the mouths of the three little kids.

"Mom, you should try this too." Li Mingxia didn't give Zhang a chance to refuse. He stuffed a piece of hawthorn cake into Zhang's mouth and then went to work on his rock sugar hawthorn porridge. A handful of white sugar and three pounds of rice were secretly added by Li Mingxia. The sweet and sour fragrance of hawthorn was very rich and soft. If you like sour and sweet taste, you will definitely not be able to refuse this taste after taking a bite! Li Mingxia is still very confident in his cooking skills.

Even though there were only these two things, it was already dark when they were done. Zhang made dinner, which was just a multi-grain pancake with some wild vegetables. Although the taste was incomparable to what Li Mingxia made, the little kids were not picky at all. After all, these things were not available in the Li family before. It was good enough if they could eat 70% to 80% full at every meal, and most of the time they would just be half full.

Zhang was eating wild vegetables, and the bitter taste made her more determined to let Li Mingxia cook for her in the future. She would take care of all the housework at home and outside, and her daughter would just have to cook. How could the same food taste so different!

After dinner, Li Mingxia put the porridge and cakes in the coolest room in the house. Early the next morning, he reheated the porridge, put it in a large ceramic pot after it boiled, and then brought a bunch of large leaves picked from the mountain. The shape and size were very similar to lotus leaves, but they were non-toxic and had a faint fragrance. They were very strong and resistant to rubbing, and were best used to wrap hawthorn cakes and warm rock sugar hawthorn porridge.

After locking the door, Li Mingxia and Zhang set off with the three little kids. The temperature on the summer morning was just right, neither too cold nor too hot, and there was a breeze. The three children were used to walking, so this short distance was nothing to them. Zhang even took a shoulder pole and put all the things in a basket and carried it herself, not letting Li Mingxia get tired at all.

Originally, Li Mingxia wanted to switch shifts with Zhang, but Zhang walked very fast and it looked like it was really effortless, so Li Mingxia didn't force it.

When they arrived at the town, it was very busy with people coming and going. Li Mingxia found a place with a lot of traffic and put down their things. It was a small business and they didn't have a table or stool, so they simply turned the basket upside down and placed the pottery jar and hawthorn cake on top.

"Don't miss it if you pass by. This is a recipe handed down from ancestors. It's appetizing and digestive. It's delicious and not greasy. I guarantee you'll want to eat it again after trying it once! Come and have a look!"

The street was not quiet, with constant hawking sounds, but Li Mingxia's clear and sweet girl's voice was a little abrupt among the others. In addition, her voice was very loud, and it stood out among the voices of the men and women, attracting passers-by to look in her direction.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Mingxia took out five hawthorn cakes and cut them into fifteen portions with a knife. "Today is our first day setting up the stall. We are not doing this to make money, but to let everyone know about this delicious food. These cakes are free for you to try. You can buy them if you like them. If they don't taste good, you don't have to buy them. It's free!"

When they heard that the food was free, more people came to watch the fun, "Is it really free? What is this made of?"

"It doesn't look like anything special, but I've never seen it before."

"Didn't they say it's a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors? It's normal that you haven't seen it before."

"Little girl, this is really free for you to eat, no money required?" An old lady came over with a chubby boy and pointed at the hawthorn cake and said.

"Yes, Auntie, there are so many people watching, how dare I cheat? Try it, this is for my younger brother. Oh, what a cute and sensible younger brother. I can tell he will have a great future." Li Mingxia praised him as if he didn't care about the cost, which made the auntie smile.

"Oh, girl, you know what, this thing is really delicious, sweet and not too sour. You must have put a lot of sugar in it, right? It's made of real ingredients, great!" The old lady gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely.

The little boy had already eaten the cake. He pointed at the hawthorn cakes with sparkling eyes and said, "Grandma, I want more!"
