How did the history of salty husband cakes come about

Xianlaobing is a type of cake that is derived from the modified version of Tianlaobing, and belongs to the pastry category. The biggest difference between Xianlaobing and Tianlaobing is that Xianlaobing is sweet while Xianlaobing is salty. The main ingredients of Xianlaofu cake are wheat flour, cake flour, malt sugar, meat floss, refined salt, sesame seeds, southern milk, coconut milk and other raw materials. According to legend, during the period from the Yuan Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty continuously collected various taxes from the people under various pretexts. The people were oppressed and plundered even more severely, and uprisings continued throughout the country. The most representative of these was the rebel army led by Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang's wife, Ma Shi, was a very intelligent person. In the early stages of the uprising, due to the chaos of war and frequent shortages of food, the army had to travel east and west to fight. In order to facilitate soldiers to carry dry food, Ma Shi came up with the idea of combining edible things such as wheat, cake flour, winter melon, etc., grinding them into flour, making cakes, and distributing them to soldiers. Not only was it convenient to carry, but it could also be eaten anytime and anywhere, making it easy for marching and fighting. It has been of great help. Due to the unpleasant taste of cakes made from a mixture of various ingredients, clever people updated their methods based on this type of cake. Eventually, they discovered that cakes made with ingredients such as sugar winter melon, wheat flour, cake flour, malt sugar, sesame seeds, etc. as fillings were very delicious. The cakes tasted sweet and delicious, and had a great taste. This formed the ancestor of sweet wife cakes and salty husband cakes
