Chapter 280 Strawberry Cake
Today, the first batch of strawberries has officially started to be picked.
After exercising in the morning, Lin Jiaojiao went home and took a quick warm shower, changed her clothes, and went to the kitchen to eat breakfast.
When she went in, the whole family was sitting at the dining table eating breakfast. She greeted them and sat between Lin Yiyan and Fu Qi.
Lin Yiyan is now eight months pregnant. Her belly is unusually big because she is carrying twins. When she goes out for a walk and meets the old people in the village, they all say that she is pregnant with twins and that she is blessed.
However, the children have been making a lot of noise recently. They may feel that the space is crowded and they often fight, which makes Lin Yiyan very tired mentally.
Fu Qi's belly has been pregnant for more than six months, but she announced to the public that it is more than four months. Even the bulge is not very big. If you don't know the truth, you will really think it is only more than four months.
This made everyone who knew the truth very worried. Fu Qi was the most frightened. She stopped going out to play and stayed in bed every day to take care of her pregnancy. Lin Jiaojiao also asked Fu's doctor to see her several times, but he could not find any problems.
In addition, the baby was very quiet in the belly, which made Fu Qi feel a little depressed and uneasy. Lin Jiaojiao had to stay by his side every night to comfort him. His mood did not improve until his belly grew a little bigger and there were obvious fetal movements.
When Fu Qi saw her sit down, he quickly went up to her and whispered to her to share his joy.
"Sister Jiaojiao, when I got up this morning, the baby kicked me hard."
She listened attentively, and when she heard him say that he kicked, she smiled and lowered her eyes to look at his stomach under the table, then she lowered her head slightly and whispered to his stomach.
"Baby is so awesome, keep it up."
On this side, making noise is encouraged, while on the other side, it is forbidden. Lin Yiyan had just taken a sip of milk when he was kicked twice, which made him cry out in pain immediately.
"hiss…"
When Lin Jiaojiao heard this, she turned around and moved closer to his stomach, scolding him in a low voice.
"I didn't ask you to cheer up, but you are not allowed to kick your daddy again, or I will spank you when you come out."
It was not known whether her threat worked or they were tired of making noise, but they finally quieted down.
Lin Yiyan yawned, and stood up with the help of Zhao Xiaotong. He wanted to take this good opportunity to go back to the house and take a good nap.
"I'm done eating, I'm going back to my room to rest for a while, you guys enjoy your meal."
Lin Jiaojiao watched him leave and then immediately started to eat breakfast. Lin Yizhi was not in the house as he had gone to the bakery to work before dawn.
The dessert shop has launched new products today, including strawberry cupcakes, strawberry cream sandwich bread, strawberry snow meringue, strawberry mille-feuille cake slices, and strawberry candied haws.
Each one can be said to be a hit, but the farm has limited milk, and the three stores can only sell fifty copies of each new product.
The prices of the new products are quite expensive, but she is not worried that they will not be able to sell out. Last month they launched ordinary cream sandwich bread.
Everyone was addicted to the cream the first time they tasted it. It was especially loved by rich young men, husbands and children. It can be said that this product has been reserved by them and others cannot even buy one to try it.
Fortunately, three cows on the farm gave birth to calves this month, otherwise we would not be able to produce so many new products.
After finishing all this, there are still 147 baskets of strawberries. Although it seems like there are so many baskets, there are actually not many in total. If you use ten large bamboo baskets to hold them, they will be finished.
The three stores each took forty baskets to buy, and as for the remaining twenty-seven baskets, Lin Yizhi had two baskets delivered to Lin Dadan's family and Lian Yun's family respectively, one basket to Song Jiajia and his wife, and one basket to the head of the village.
Then one basket was sent to Zhang Tong in the city, two baskets were sent to Liu Ying's family, and one basket was sent to each of the top ten customers of the dessert shop. Since Fu's mother and the others went to Kyoto, no basket was sent.
He had half of the remaining eight baskets of strawberries delivered to the canteen and the construction team respectively so that everyone could have a taste of the freshness.
As for why he didn't take it home, it was because Lin Jiaojiao couldn't wait more than ten days ago. After exercising in the morning, she went to the strawberry garden to see if the fruits were red. With the help of the map, she was able to find the early-ripening fruits quickly and accurately.
So he would bring a basket back every morning to eat. It was sour and sweet and delicious. However, after eating it for so many days in a row, it was not as delicious as it was in the first few days. So he still brought some new products he made today back for everyone to taste.
When he finished his work and carried the food box back, the horse-drawn carriage that Lin Jiaojiao was riding in, carrying the desserts, was almost reaching Nanshan City.
Now desserts and ingredients are delivered separately. After all, hot pot and roast duck are not only smelly, but the various fresh vegetables also take up a lot of space.
Even the interior of the carriage has been improved, with layers of shelves nailed inside, so that the space in the upper half can be fully utilized, and the shaking and friction during cargo transportation can be reduced, allowing desserts to be better preserved.
Lin Jiaojiao sat in the front room with Lin Fen. Along the way, she chatted with Lin Fen and exchanged exercise experiences. When she felt thirsty, she grabbed a handful of strawberries from the car to quench her thirst.
Although these strawberries are not as full and big as the modern ones, this one is not very small either. It can only be said to be medium in size. The main reason is that there is not enough fertilizer for so many vegetable fields.
Moreover, they grow quite standardly, with very few being oddly shaped or damaged. The main reason is that she bagged the strawberries, otherwise they would have been eaten by birds and insects before they could be harvested.
She gave half of the fruit in her hand to Lin Fen, who took it without hesitation and looked at the bright red and festive fruit in his hand.
"This one from Dongjia is somewhat similar to the snake fruit on the hill, but it's much bigger and more beautiful."
After saying that, he stuffed one into his mouth. His eyes lit up as he took the bite. He turned around and looked at Lin Jiaojiao, who was eating the tip of a strawberry next to him, in surprise.
"Delicious! So delicious! This is the most delicious fruit I have ever eaten!"
Lin Jiaojiao turned around after hearing her exclamation and agreed, "Of course, if it's delicious, eat more. I'll take care of you."
"Hey, thank you, boss."
However, she didn't ask for it again after she finished eating it, even when Lin Jiaojiao handed it to her later, she didn't want it. She just wanted to try it for fun and remember the taste.
After eating the strawberries, Lin Jiaojiao began to think about the various new strawberry desserts in the lunch box. The sweet aroma of strawberry desserts kept surrounding her nose. She even regretted eating so many steamed dumplings in the morning.
She had eaten this new product when Lin Yizhi first made it, and she had eaten it as many times as she failed.
However, if you eat too much cream, you will get sick of it, but after getting sick of it, you will want to eat more again. She thinks the most successful ones are snow meringue and strawberry mille-feuille, as the cream is wrapped inside and does not melt easily, and tastes good.
Even the strawberry cakes were not covered with cream because they would melt quickly if left for too long in the heat. So they were made into a thousand-layer cake style with the cream and strawberry pulp sandwiched between the cake base.
When they arrived at the door of Zhishi Dessert Shop, Liu Wen was wiping the cabinet with a rag. When she heard the noise, she turned around and saw that it was her own carriage. She quickly put down the rag and trotted over.
"Boss, you are here too, please go inside and rest, I will take care of it."
Liu Wen stepped forward to help carry the lunch boxes, and Lin Jiaojiao took out a small lunch box from the shelf in the carriage and called her.
"There are a lot of new products today. Lin Fen and I can just move them here. Go and taste them."
Upon hearing this, Liu Wen immediately took the snack box and returned to the counter. The moment she opened the box, she was stunned.
"This new style is so beautiful..."
