Jin Ling brushed her teeth with a willow twig made by Jin Ling, and Jin Ling gave her some breakfast before serving her a bowl of apricot sauce.
The apricot sauce was sweet, sour and sour. Jin Ling could still feel the melting sensation of the fruit's flesh in her mouth.
She quickly finished a bowl of jam and licked her lips as she looked at the little girl. The little girl was currently rejecting the request of Iron Egg and Orchid to have another bowl of jam.
"The jam is too sweet and can't be eaten too much. When ants smell the sweetness, they will crawl into your stomach."
Iron Egg's belly was very high, so the little girl reached out her hand. This child had soup and cakes in the morning, but in the end, he also ate a big bowl of jam. He was still thinking about eating.
"Sis, then I won't be eating anymore. Let's eat again at noon. Give me a bowl, I'll carry it to Big Brother Ye and let him eat it."
Iron Egg looked at her with sparkling eyes. He felt that he was smart. Who didn't know that Brother Ye didn't like these sour and sweet things? He would definitely give the jam to him and the orchid.
The lady smiled and did not expose him. She turned around and went to the kitchen to scoop up a bowl of jam and pass it to Iron Egg. When Jin Ling saw this, she quickly followed Iron Egg. She … She didn't want to eat another bowl, she just wanted to see her father.
After taking two steps, Jin Ling suddenly stopped and asked her mother, "Can my father have some jam?"
She just wanted to eat some more delicious jam and had almost forgotten about her father.
The lady thought for a moment, then scooped a bowl of jam and said, "First let your father use some ribs soup, then eat the jam. Otherwise, he won't be able to eat anymore."
"En!" Jin Ling replied as she carried the food next door to Iron Egg.
Ye Xuan was chopping firewood in the yard with his axe in hand. Jin Ling's father was sitting on the steps of the main hall. When he saw Jin Ling come over, he immediately beckoned her over.
"Ye-dage, see what I'm going to give you!"
Even the cute girl in her own courtyard could hear the sound of the iron egg. Ye Xuan hadn't replied to her, but the cute girl ordered, "I cooked that jam early in the morning. Try it on yourself."
Ye Xuan received the bowl and scooped a spoonful into his mouth. Surprisingly, the taste wasn't bad, so he quickly finished the bowl of apricot paste.
Seeing that empty bowl of hope being shattered, Iron Egg almost cried.
Wang Mei Hua's body was much better now. He was walking back and forth on his walking stick in the yard, and when he heard Tie Wu's wails, he jokingly scolded, "This little brat always tries to think of ways to eat more."
When she made the apricot paste, everyone praised her. However, when she made the apricot paste, they also made Jiao Niang think about how to preserve it. In her previous life, she had eaten canned food, so how did she make canned food?
If she could make it, she would be able to sell it a little further. However, the lady knew that the lid was tight because there was a small rubber ring inside. She had never seen rubber in this place before.
Although she couldn't make the lid, the lady still planned to make a batch of apricot sauce to sell at the market. After being treated at high temperatures, the apricot sauce could still be stored for a period of time.
If he wanted to do it, then so be it. The lady had to mobilize the people in the small courtyard, especially Ye Xuan. He had to go to the apricot grove and collect more apricots. Cheng Huzhong's arm was almost done. He didn't need to sit at home all day, so the lady told him to go to the next county and buy a batch of terrines for the apricot sauce. The jars didn't need to be big enough to hold two pounds of apricot sauce.
"Talk to the owner about buying 100 jars first and have them deliver it to the Lin Family Village. If there are any broken jars along the way and they give us a discount, tell him that we will be working with them in the future."
Cheng Huzhong nodded and took this matter to heart. He packed some things and prepared to leave. The Wutuo County next door was not too far away, and with his speed, he would arrive in half a day.
As for Xingzi, the little sister thought for a moment and decided to go with Ye Xuan. Xingzi's maturity was only a short period of time, and every day, she would fight for every second. It would be best if they could send Xingzi to the Lin Family Village.
There were still three days before the fifth day of May. The villagers were busy with festivals, cutting wormwood, making color and making color. After the fifth day of May, they would have to harvest the wheat, and the villagers would still have time to gather and chat.
Seeing Ye Xuan drive the carriage out with his daughter, the women in the group chatted among themselves quite a bit.
"Do you think Ye Xuan has taken a fancy to the lady?" I've been helping this bunch of people all day, but I've never seen him help anyone else. "
"They are quite compatible. One of them is the bandit leader and the other is a widow. Tsk, tsk. What kind of people are compatible?"
"I think you're speaking up for your sister? "Who doesn't know that your sister wants to marry Ye Xuan? Your family doesn't even dare to mention it."
Everyone laughed, causing the woman's face to turn red. "What's so good about Ye Xuan? He doesn't even have a plot of land at home, would he agree?" It just so happens to be next to that poor little girl, who cares! "
She bit off the thread from Agen, who was raising pigs, and her little pig looked really cute. Two days ago, her wife had said that they could sell the pig for a good price, and there was even a dregs of beans from their little girl. She wasn't willing to speak ill of their little lady, and what had her little lady done? He had been listening to these women's chattering all day long, pretending to be mysterious.
"You guys chat, I'll go home and see if the pigs are hungry." Mother Agen took her things and was about to leave.
After she had left, the woman continued, "Who doesn't know that she is attached to a lady? There are a few pigs raised at home that act as if they are treasures, and they are even more serious in serving her parents."
The cute girl did not know about this and only felt that the weather had become much hotter. Looking at the sky, there were no clouds, and it was extremely hot.
"It can't be that the weather wants to rain down, right?"
Ye Xuan calmly drove the ox-cart. He raised his head to look at the sky and told his daughter, "I won't. It's not like I'll be leaving now."
The lady did not know why he was so sure, but when they got to the apricot grove, there was no sign of rain.
When they reached the Apricot Forest, the little girl first went to Hongmei's house to look for Hongmei. Yesterday, when they came back, they couldn't bring Hongmei, so they also greeted her, saying that they would pass here the next day before taking her back.
Hongmei thought they were exchanging courtesies and was in the room taking in the soles of her shoes. Seeing the two girls come over, she was overjoyed. "Oh, you really came. I even said I was going back by myself!"
The lady smiled at her, "When did I ever say I was joking? Is my aunt not at home?"
"My mother went to the hills to look at the wheat. Won't she be harvesting it in a few days? You see, the sky has suddenly turned dark, so if it was dropped, it might affect the harvest. "
"This rain won't be able to fall anytime soon. Bring my wife over, I have something to discuss with her."
The cute girl told Hongmei that it wouldn't rain as Ye Xuan said, and Ye Xuan looked at her with a smile that wasn't a smile.
"Then you two can sit in the yard for a while. I'll go get them."
Red Plum followed the village road up the mountain. The little girl stood in her yard looking at the apricots that stretched as far as the eye could see, and she automatically exchanged them for money. The appearance of apricot paste was one of a kind here, like red-braised pork from the start.
There were already many people who knew how to make Red Braised Meat, but the price of Red Braised Meat also dropped. It was not even as much as the Qiao family restaurant earned in the beginning.
After a while, Hongmei came over with her parents. Hongmei's mother took care of them enthusiastically and scolded her for not pouring a bowl of hot water.
The lady quickly stopped her, "Aunt, we came here to talk business, do you remember the apricots we picked yesterday? I want to buy some more. "
"Sigh, isn't it just apricots? If you want to eat, then come and pick them. They're not rare objects, and you're still asking for money?" Hong Mei was also a straightforward person. If she said those words, she would take a ladder to pick the apricots for her daughter.
"What I want isn't just a small amount. I'll probably have to buy a few hundred pounds of apricots to get back. How can I not have money?" The cute girl said patiently.
When she heard that the little girl wanted several hundred kilograms of apricots, Hong Mei's eyes went wide, "Tell me, how much do you want?" Several hundred pounds? "What do you want so much for? You can't eat too many of these apricots."
Hong Mei nudged her mother and reminded her in a small voice, "The little girl is using beans to make tofu. Maybe she wants to go back and do something else with the apricot. Why do you ask so many questions?"
Hong Mei beamed happily and became embarrassed again. She looked at her daughter and asked, "Then what price are you planning to pay?"
"We usually sell apricots at three gold coins per catty, but this year, we still have a pile of rotten apricots on the mountain. If you want more, we can give you a discount. How about two gold coins per catty?"
