Originally, Xing'er was also crooked in bed to take a nap, and she hurried up when she heard the movement outside, and when Li Hui entered the house, Xing'er put on her clothes, and she saw Li Hui come in and tidy up the corners of her clothes and said, "Hui Niang, you are here~!"
"Come~ Sister Xing'er!I brought mung bean soup, let's come over and drink some together!" Li Hui said, pointing to the small jar that the dog was carrying in his hand now. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, the dog tail also came in with a bowl, and the four children sat around the table, and each of them drank a bowl of cold mung bean soup. Especially the youngest dog tail, after drinking a bowl, he still couldn't get enough of looking at the empty jar, there are many children in their family, so Aunt Li is very frugal on weekdays, and mung bean soup like this is rarely boiled for children, not to mention putting such expensive rock sugar in the mung bean soup.
"Girl, your craft is so good~!You can do anything!" After drinking the mung bean soup, the dog cheek licked his sweet lips and said, for the little sister next door Dog cheek has always admired her, such a young age is so capable not to say, and so good at making money, not to mention that people are about to open a store, just people tell my sister how to match the color so that the price of those purses embroidered by my sister is much higher than before, and now my sister is making those little dolls, although it has not been taken out to sell, but just by looking at it, I know that it will definitely be able to sell at a good price.
"Sister~~!" said with a flattering face: "Sister, you also find a thing for my brother to make money, you don't know, your aunt and my mother are so picky, we are not as strong as my sister, so sister, you can help!"
"Ah~~~??" Li Hui really didn't expect that the dog would suddenly beg for this, and it seemed that he had become the road to riches, but to say that Aunt Li's family was really good to herself, so she was also willing to help them, and I also hoped that I would have a way to help them, and I would have made this rag doll for Xing'er for this purpose, but Xing'er also thought about it for a long time at that time before thinking of such a way, this dog opened her mouth coldly and begged herself, and she really stumped herself.
"What are you talking about, Hui Niang, how old is she, the things in her family are enough for her to worry about, how can you be so ignorant!" Before Li Hui could say anything, Xing'er took the lead in reprimanding her younger brother, Li Hui has the ability to say the most clearly in her heart, but her heart is also more distressed Li Hui, how difficult it is to run a family at such a young age, so she doesn't want her brother to trouble people again, and she is saying, can this way of making money be so easy to get? It's not like cooking, you put things in a pot and they cook.
"It's okay, Sister Xing'er!" Li Hui patted Xing'er's arm beside her, then turned her head and asked Gou'er, "Fourth brother, do you have any plans for yourself?"
Li Hui's words made the dog dumbfounded, in fact, he didn't have any plan to say what he was going to do, in fact, at his age, he didn't have any skills, and he was at a loss for the future prospects, and the sentence he just asked was just a casual remark, in fact, he didn't have any hope in his own heart in the face of this.
"I want to sell sugar!" said the scary dogtail, who had been sitting on the side all this time, with a low sense of presence.
"Selling sugar?" Gouwei's words gave Li Hui a hint of inspiration, "Fifth brother, what kind of candy do you want to sell?"
"I~~!I don't know, it's just sweet candy anyway~!" Dogtail looked up at Li Hui embarrassedly and said, he is introverted and rarely even speaks, so it is rare to be able to say such things.
"I can make maltose~!" Li Hui said as he picked up the kettle on the table and poured half a bowl of water into the empty bowl where he had just finished drinking mung bean soup.
Li Hui's words shocked everyone present, to say that the two of them are neighbors, the two sides are close, and they have a certain understanding of Li Hui's craftsmanship, but they still didn't expect Li Hui to make candy.
"What's maltose?" asked the dog.
"Hmm~!, it's a kind of sugar made from sprouted wheat!" This explanation should be the simplest and most straightforward explanation!
"Can wheat be made into sugar, is it sweet, is it delicious?" asked the dog, licking his mouth.
"Sugar~!Of course it's sweet!" Li Hui looked at the sisters and brothers sitting beside him, and thought to himself, is there no such thing as maltose here?
Li Hui was thinking about that in her heart, when she heard Xing'er ask, "Hui Niang, why do you even know how to make sugar?"
"Well~~!I'm looking for someone to inquire!" Li Hui said unhurriedly: "My dad doesn't always like to cough!" I asked someone everywhere for some home remedies, and I asked about this, this kind of malt candy can stop coughing when eaten!"
"Can this sugar also stop coughing?" Everyone was stunned by what Li Hui said, can sugar still cure diseases?
"Yes~!This thing is very good for coughing!" Li Hui has no doubts about the medicinal effect of maltose, in fact, she was weak in the other world when she was young, and she often coughed, and at that time, her grandmother would use maltose to stew white radish juice for her, and the cough would soon get better after drinking. Now I see that Li Changgen also has a frequent cough, so I plan to make some maltose, but there are too many things for a while, so I will delay it again and again.
"That~~ Isn't it particularly complicated and difficult to make this thing?"
"It's not very difficult, the weather is about three or four days now!" Li Hui took a sip of water and thought for a while.
"What should I do then, can my sister tell us?" asked in a small voice, if this kind of thing really has the effect that Li Hui said, this thing is powerful, and it is okay to say that it is a craft, if that is the case, will Li Hui teach himself?
"Yes~!To make maltose, you need wheat and glutinous rice!" Li Hui blurted out without hesitation.
"Just these two things?" Originally, I would have heard very complicated ingredients in my heart, but I didn't expect these two things.
"Yes~!That's it! The method is not too complicated, that is, wash the wheat first, then wrap it in a cloth to let it sprout, wait until the malt grows out, then soak the glutinous rice, steam it into a softer rice through water, and wait until it is so cold that it is not very hot to mix the minced malt into it and ferment, ferment it, filter the slag, put it in the pot and boil the water out, and the rest is maltose!" Li Hui gave them a rough explanation of the steps of production.
"That doesn't sound that complicated!" the dog whispered, scratching his head and his brother.
"Then why don't you give it a try, fourth brother?" Gouwei also felt that this thing didn't seem to be very difficult to get, so he sat there and bit his ear with his fourth brother.
"That~~!Sister Hui Niang, how much wheat and glutinous rice do you need to make this candy?" The two brothers discussed for a long time and finally decided to try it to see if this thing could be made, but before that, we still have to ask how many materials this thing needs, if it is too much, then the two of them may not be able to make up the material money.
"This~!It should be ten percent glutinous rice with one percent wheat!" Li Hui recalled again and then said with certainty: "This is the ratio, you can buy one or two catties of glutinous rice to try it first!"
"Do you want so much glutinous rice?" Dog Cheek hesitated a little when he heard that he wanted so much glutinous rice as raw materials, it's not that he didn't have confidence in this thing, Li Hui's craftsmanship was good enough to open a store, then what she said must be no problem, but the most important thing is that her money is not enough! He is only a half-old boy and can't be as strong as his two elder brothers, although he runs to the dock every day, but what he can do every day is to help run errands and pass a word or something, and if he encounters a generous one, he can also give a few pennies of reward, if he encounters the kind of door picking, he can't get a penny, and the situation in the family is not good, in order to be able to reduce the burden of his parents, the rewards he got are basically handed over, and the savings are only dozens of cents, but what he wants to do maltose is glutinous rice, and a pound of glutinous rice is about the same as seven or eight cents a catty, that is still the fact that there are paddy fields in the countryside near them, and the price is not high, but the key is that no one knows how much maltose can be made from this catty of glutinous rice.
"Fourth brother, then let's go buy glutinous rice and wheat!" Just when Gouwei was still hesitating, his younger brother Gouwei made a direct decision, "Where do I have almost twenty yuan, it should be enough to buy two catties of glutinous rice and wheat, let's try two catties of glutinous rice first!"
Li Hui was really surprised that the dog's tail, who had never been silent, had such a decision, she thought for a while and said: "Actually, I think you can send some to Dr. Liu first after you get this done, so that he can test the effect, if the effect is really good, you can discuss with Dr. Liu and put it in his pharmacy to buy it." ”
Li Hui's words immediately made the eyes of the three sisters and brothers light up, they all live in the same town, Dr. Liu is praised for both medical skills and character, if this maltose can really have such an effect, then Dr. Liu must also be willing.
"Okay, just listen to my sister's arrangement!" At this time, Xing'er, who was her sister, spoke, "You don't need to pay for it, this money sister gave it to you, wait a minute, I'll give you one hundred and fifty wen, you went to buy ten catties of glutinous rice and one catty of wheat back, let's do it today, it just so happens that Hui Niang's store hasn't opened yet, let her help us look at it these days!"
Xing'er's courage made the two younger brothers very happy, but the dog didn't want the third sister to let the money out, "The third sister should take the money from us, and when this thing is really sold, we will pay you back!"
Aunt Li has raised a total of five children, but only Xing'er has a daughter, so the family is very partial to her, like a dog belly who runs errands on the dock every day to earn a few pennies and has to hand it over, but Aunt Li never asked her to ask for the money she wanted, only as her daughter's pocket money, which also made several children in the family only Xing'er has plenty of money.
"No~!You two work hard, if you really earn money, I'll tell my mother when I go back, if you don't make a lot of money, let the two of you keep the flowers! If you can earn money, you can hand over some to your mother at that time, and the rest will be left to the two of you. "Xing'er has been with Li Hui for a while, and this vision has become different.
"Really, that's great~!" Dog Cheek was so happy to hear her sister say this, you must know that whether it is her father or grandfather or grandmother, she thinks that the third sister is a daughter, so she is very biased, and the third sister also has the right to speak at home, but the third sister has a good temperament, and usually everything is based on the elders, but if the third sister opens her mouth to talk to her father, then her father and mother will definitely agree.
This matter was finalized, and the dog was immediately busy, and Xing'er gave him money to take his younger brother out to buy materials first, and he began to work at home.
"Sister, you just go back to the house to rest, I'll do this, haven't you made the clothes for your brother haven't finished yet! You go sew the clothes first! Anyway, this work is not heavy, I'll get it done in a few clicks!" Xing'er took a large piece of white cloth to clean, this is what Li Hui told her, when the malt is made, the malt must be spread on the white cloth, and the white cloth must be covered with a white cloth, and for the sake of hygiene, the white cloth must be cleaned first, and scalded with hot water in the sun.
"What are you two girls doing?" asked Grandma Li as she watched the two of them hugging a ball of white cloth.
"Milk is like this~!" Xing'er didn't plan to hide it at home, anyway, if she really got it back, she couldn't hide it, "I asked Xiao Si and Xiao Wu to go shopping together, and I prepared the rest of the things at home!"
"That's it~!" Grandma Li nodded and stood up, "Didn't you say that your sister came here to find you to do needlework? You two should go and do needlework! I'll help you get this, isn't it just washed and then boiled in hot water! I'm going to get this thing for you, and if you want to sprout wheat, why do you want a bigger bamboo flat! I'll go and ask your grandfather to get one for you!"
Xing'er was immediately happy when she heard this, she hurriedly hugged her grandmother's arm and said coquettishly: "It's still grandma, you love me the most!"
