What is the origin of "husband cake and old woman cake"?

Legend has it that there was once a loving couple, and the daughter-in-law was willing to sell herself to treat the elderly. Undaunted, the husband who lost his wife worked hard to develop a delicious cake, and finally redeemed his wife by selling the cake and lived a happy life again. This gourmet recipe has been called "old woman cake" since its inception. I didn't expect this little cake to contain such a touching love story. \xd\\xd\ and another legend about the old lady's cake comes from the Lotus Tea House in Guangzhou. Anyone who has been to Guangzhou knows that Lotus Fragrant Tea House is a famous shop in Guangzhou, and Chaozhou granny cake is its housekeeping snack. At the end of Qing Dynasty, Lianxianglou hired a Chaozhou master. One year, he went home to visit relatives and brought many snacks from Lianxianglou to his family. Who knows that his wife was greatly dissatisfied after eating snacks: "The snacks in Lianxianglou are not as good as the wax gourd horns fried by my family." After listening to his wife's words, the pastry chef was unconvinced: "Then make the melon horn of your mother's house and compare it with the snacks in Lianxianglou!" The next day, my wife prepared a pot of wax gourd, made of white sugar and flour as stuffing, then wrapped it in flour into small corners and fried it in an oil pan until golden brown. The pastry chef took a sip and repeatedly praised it. After returning to Guangzhou, he took the melon horn made by his wife to the masters of the teahouse to taste. What kind of snacks has the master of Lianxianglou never seen? However, after they ate the melon horn, they were full of praise. The owner of Lianxianglou knew about it and came to taste one. The boss said, "Well, it's delicious! Where is this famous point? What's its name? " Master Chaozhou couldn't answer for a moment, so one of the masters said, "This is made by master Chaozhou's wife, so we call it' Chaozhou old woman cake'." \xd\\xd\ Interestingly, there is another kind of cake corresponding to "old woman's cake" called "husband's cake", which is slightly different in shape and tastes unique. The "old woman cake" is small in shape and delicate in taste. After eating sesame seeds, it still feels fragrant, and it is really as meticulous and thoughtful as a little woman. The "husband cake" is slightly larger in shape, tastes a little similar to bread, but it is a bit like a careless big man. \xd\\xd\ 2: The legend of husband's cake: \ xd \ xd \ husband's cake is made of garlic, salt and pepper and egg yolk, with a slightly salty taste. \ xd \ xd \ Legend has it that it is a pair of young men and women. The man's family is poor, and the woman specially made a kind of baked cake to sell in the market to help him raise money to go to Beijing to try. Later generations called this kind of sesame, south milk, pepper and salt baked cake "Laogong cake", that is, the salty "Laopo cake"-naturally, she must be prepared to raise money for him, and in the end, he will not be disappointed, and the cake will be handed down by the stream.
