In the blink of an eye, even if he was lying in the house, he could smell the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, Zhao Qianqiu lay on the bed, looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and sighed, "It's autumn again!"

"Sister, I'm back!" Wan Yu and Wan Li had already returned for a walk with the group in a nearby park, and she hadn't gotten up yet.

"Oh, you're back?" Qianqiu looked at Wan Yu's magnified face and kissed him on the forehead, "Then it's time to get up, what do you want for breakfast?"

"Dad, he's already bought rice cakes and raisin soup and came back, you can wash your face and come downstairs to eat!" Wan Yu looked radiant, Zhao Qianqiu felt that even if he was eighteen years younger, he probably wouldn't be as energetic as him. She felt that her current self was no different from a salted fish, Qinghe was used to her and was too lazy to talk, and if there was a wicked mother-in-law, she would definitely sweep her out of the house.

"Dad, are you so early today?" When Zhao Qianqiu went downstairs, Zhao Hua was already ready to go out. (After returning home, he got a job running a freight forward, and sometimes he wouldn't see anyone for a few days when he was running long distances, and when he went out early in the morning like today, he probably had to go to some distant place to make deliveries.) ）

"Well, this time the goods are going to be sent to Hainan...... Visually inspect what it looks like to go out for three or four days. Zhao Hua glanced at her and carried a duffel bag containing two sets of clothes pants, "Breakfast has been bought and put on the table, if Xiaoyu's mother comes to me, she will say that I am not at home." (Xiao Yu is the little boy he met in the mall.) At that time, Zhao Million's money had been spent, so he was swept out of the house, and even the small broken car he had been driving before was not allowed to be brought back. Now I don't know who said that Zhao Million has reformed and worked hard, and feels that as long as he hands over the money to her, it is not impossible for the two to live together again. Besides, Xiaoyu is still young now, and there are many places to use money, if you can find a stable small treasury, it will also help the child's growth. ）

"Got it!" Zhao Qianqiu nodded, she didn't accept the image of that woman's stepmother so quickly, she just didn't want to tear her face in front of Wan Li Wanyu. Even if the woman did come to the door, she felt that she had nothing to say to her. Nor will this woman be defrauded of a penny from their family again.

After eating, Zhao Qianqiu drove Wan Li Wanyu to school, looking at the osmanthus flowers on the side of the road, she suddenly thought that it was time to make some osmanthus nectar, which could be used in the future, whether it was pastries or cooking rice balls.

She has always been a man of action, and it just so happens that there is a 20-year-old osmanthus tree in her backyard, and she has never had the opportunity to do it before, but now she can make some good ones and put them away.

"There are still some sealed jars at home, and now I only have honey to buy!" Qianqiu thought about it in her heart, and with a turn of the steering wheel, she drove the car towards the wholesale farmers' market.

"Boss, how do you sell this honey?" asked Qianqiu as she picked up a two-pound bottle of honey.

"What you have in your hand is orange nectar, two catties for fifty yuan!" the old lady gestured with her hand, and pointed to another darker color and said, "This is five yuan more expensive, it is osmanthus nectar......"

The local honey is classified according to the season of the flowers, and earlier there will be locust nectar and pipa nectar. (It is said that the bees have different effects depending on the flowers they pick, but it is not known what the effect actually is.) ）

Zhao Qianqiu bought three bottles of orange nectar, planning to let him bring one bottle when Qinghe came back next time, he was very busy with work over there, often stayed up late, and it was good to drink a glass of honey water to detox when he got up early.

The honey is ready, and all that remains is to prepare the osmanthus.

Playing osmanthus is a particularly interesting thing: Qianqiu opened four or five umbrellas under the osmanthus tree in advance and placed them upside down on the ground. After choosing the angle, after putting the camera on the shelf, I pressed the shooting button and began to gently knock on the branches with many osmanthus flowers with a long pole, and it didn't take long for the umbrella to be filled with a lot of fallen osmanthus flowers, connected with the leaves and the stem. (As for why she wants to make a small video of osmanthus flowers, she has recently become accustomed to Mei doing a little thing and revealing that thing, and when she makes osmanthus cakes or other videos in the future, she will find it particularly interesting to cut these together.) ）

She put all the osmanthus flowers that fell into the umbrella into a bamboo sieve, first coarsely sifted to pick out the leaves and dirt inside, and then carefully sifted again, leaving only the flowers, and removing all the flower stalks. These sound very simple, but in fact it is a big project, to pick out all the osmanthus flowers, it is impossible to do it without a day's effort.

"What are you doing today? Why do you look weak?" When she was on the video with Qinghe, she was still picking osmanthus flowers, and some of the selected ones had been soaked in salt water, rinsed with water several times, and then placed on the balcony to dry.

"I picked osmanthus flowers at home today, and I only picked a pound or so with stars in my eyes, and now when I talk to you, my head is still a little ......dizzy" Qianqiu rubbed his neck with his hand and lay on the sofa casually. (Someone was picking osmanthus while watching TV, and when she was concentrating on picking, she listened to the sound, because no one came back at noon, and she even forgot to prepare lunch, and when she was chatting with Qinghe, she found that she was a little hungry.) ）

"What are you doing with osmanthus flowers?" Qinghe was a little puzzled, at least, in his concept, dried osmanthus flowers could be bought, and there was no need to be so troublesome.

"After drying the osmanthus flowers, you can make osmanthus nectar, you can put it when you make snacks and cook glutinous rice balls, now is the osmanthus season, if it rains in two days, the osmanthus flowers all fall to the ground, and then it will be difficult to get it......" said, Qianqiu changed the mobile phone camera, and picked half of the osmanthus flowers in the bamboo sieve for Qinghe.

"Just picked a little bit all morning?" Qinghe asked in disbelief, at least, his eyebrow raising had already told Zhao Qianqiu that he was a little skeptical.

"Why, do you think I'm lazy enough to get so little?" Chiaki glared as if she was going to eat someone. Just as she was about to say something, there was a burst of laughter on the TV, which embarrassed Chiaki.

"I'm watching TV!" Qinghe covered his mouth and laughed, but seeing Qianqiu's expression at this time, he immediately put the smile back and quickly changed his expression.

"It's not because of watching TV that it's so inefficient......" Chiaki immediately argued, but couldn't find the right words for a while.

"Hmm......" Qinghe nodded, "I haven't eaten, it's almost time now, shouldn't I have even eaten because I forgot to pick and forget?"

"Uh...... When you say that, I'm really hungry. Chiaki touched her stomach, thinking about eating something at noon to deal with it.

"There are some celery and pork stuffed dumplings that I made before I went out in the second compartment of the refrigerator, so I cooked a few dumplings and ate them if I didn't want to cook. There are a lot of things in the refrigerator, and Qinghe remembers it so clearly, if he hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have remembered that there were dumplings made by Qinghe in the refrigerator.

"Got it, then I'll go downstairs now to cook a few dumplings, you take the time to sleep for a while, and also, stay up less late at night......" Qianqiu admonished, and ended the call after seeing Qinghe agree.

"The second compartment on the lower level of the refrigerator...... Let me see. Qianqiu squatted down and looked at it, and found that there were really a few bags of dumplings inside, and there were notes pasted on the outside of each bag, writing the date of the dumplings and the filling inside, "It's done so carefully, even the date is listed!" As she spoke, Qianqiu took a bag out of the refrigerator, poured out about ten and put it on a plate, and threw the rest back into the refrigerator. She boiled a pot of water, poured some boiling water into the pot, sprinkled a little salt in the water, and put the quick-frozen dumplings in it when the water boiled again.

While waiting for the water to boil, she took out her mobile phone, searched for the practice of osmanthus nectar on the Internet, and found a small notebook to write down the main steps.

"Did my mother do this before? How do you feel that this is not the case......" Qianqiu squinted her eyes and thought for a while, "I just remember that she used to always pull me to help pick osmanthus flowers, and as for what happened later, I have no impression at all, and what I see is the finished product that is taken out at the end." Look at what is written on the Internet so simple, it should be like this, you have to dry the osmanthus and then do it, otherwise it will be easy to break...... Good osmanthus nectar can be sealed for many years without deterioration, even if you make more now, you don't have to worry about not being able to eat it. ”

Until five o'clock in the afternoon, Qianqiu made a total of three jars of osmanthus nectar, large and small, and stuffed them into the refrigerator after they were done. After everything was dealt with, she breathed a sigh of relief, if it wasn't for Wanyu's kindergarten teacher calling, she would not have remembered to pick up Wanli Wanyu back.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little busy today, I forgot about it, teacher, you wait for me a while, I'll be here in ten minutes!" Qianqiu picked up the car keys and put them in his pocket, and re-tied his hair with his hands. The car stopped in front of the house, caught fire, hit the turn signal, hit the steering wheel, and started...... The whole process is done in one go.

When she arrived at the kindergarten, there was almost no one there, Wan Yu waited for her at the fence, saw the car she drove by, immediately greeted the teacher, and went back to the classroom to get her school bag.

"Why did you come now, I thought you forgot!" Wan Yu said this with a crying tone, and after finishing speaking, he buried his head in Zhao Qianqiu's arms. It looked like he was crying.

"Thank you, teacher!" As he spoke, Zhao Qianqiu bent down and hugged Wan Yu and patted him on the back, "I picked osmanthus flowers at home today, and I found out that it was so late after I got them all!

"Brother, didn't he ask the teacher to call you?" Wan Yu asked, sitting on the child seat in the back seat, tilting his head.

"No...... Let's go over and have a look first......" As she spoke, Zhao Qianqiu increased the throttle, she felt that she was really dizzy, otherwise she wouldn't have forgotten the time like now.
