Chapter Ninety-Nine: Pear Orchard Pear Paste

You Shaojun had learned before he came, the area of the pear orchard was a full 800 acres, and after it was originally sold, he wanted to build a Zhuangzi and then open a pond, and there should be a hundred fruit orchards where crops could be grown, and he would be able to catch fish and swim in the lake, so he planned to build a small resort.

But You Shaojun's grandmother was a person with her own ideas, she thought, "My dowry mother-in-law's family can't move, so why should I plan according to other people's arrangements?"

So nine-tenths of the entire 800 acres of land were planted with her favorite pear trees, and the remaining one-tenth was built into a small village, so that she could come and enjoy the flowers and pick pears to have a resting place.

I was prepared in my heart, but You Shaojun came to the pear orchard in person, and when he saw the pears hanging on the branches that can be described as overwhelming, the corners of his mouth were still a little twitching, how many pears do the pear trees of 800 acres get, who can eat them, won't they all be wasted, right?

"Lord Wang, this year's harvest is good, you see that ninety percent of each tree is good fruit!" The manager of the pear orchard also reported to You Shaojun happily, and also presented a big Ya pear that they carefully selected as a representative.

"Yes, yes. "A good harvest is always a good thing, You Shaojun held the big Yali pear in his hand, "This one has a catty." When he spoke, he didn't forget that the ancient scale was sixteen taels per catty, so this big Yali pear should be one and a half catties in modern terms.

"Your eyesight is too accurate!" the manager exclaimed, "One pound and three dollars, this is just what we found casually, there should be bigger ones in the high places, last year's pear king was six dollars a pound, and this year it will definitely be surpassed!"

"Yes, keep up the good work. You Shaojun offered verbal praise.

Princess Changning said to let You Shaojun keep an eye on it, but she would not call her son as a fruit farmer, although You Shaojun didn't mind picking the fruit by himself, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, the chief manager and the others in the orchard were sincerely afraid: "Lord be careful, if there is anything, just tell the little one!"

"Slow down!"

"Lord ......"

"Okay, is picking a pear more dangerous than fighting?" You Shaojun was unhappy, even when he was really fighting, no one dared to yell at him!

"The prince should be careful...... "The chief manager is also helpless, he is blamed by the prince, and if he doesn't stop it, there will really be an accident, can the princess spare him?

"Forget it, you pick up ten good pears and send them to the Zhuangzi where I live. "It is not difficult for You Shaojun to work under the hands of these people.

Because Princess Changning has always attached importance to the pear orchard left to her by her mother-in-law, anyone who comes to Anzhou Town will definitely come to live in the pear orchard for a few days, so the Zhuangzi where the pear orchard is located has been carefully arranged, and there is no shortage of daily necessities and waiting.

You Shaojun still lives in the small courtyard where the original owner has been living, he asked Zong Liang and them to go to the best pharmacy in the town to buy some medicinal materials, and boil pear paste in the courtyard to pass the time, the You family is too complicated, he would rather live in the pear orchard until his grandmother's birthday and then go back.

"On the day when the prince left for the pear orchard, the patriarch You and the heads and faces of the clan got together to drink tea again, and the subordinates did not dare to approach, but just asked someone to inquire, they probably said not to make trouble for the prince, to restrain the clan. Again, the inconspicuous guard reported that.

His grandfather and some elders of the same clan still understand people, and if there is Patriarch You, You Shaojun will not have to worry about the reputation of treating his relatives harshly when he comes back to visit his relatives, so he paid attention to the guard in front of him: "You come closer next time, just listen to them in the living room." ”

"What if they find out?" the guards were afraid of ruining the prince's business.

"Li Bixian, you have to have confidence in yourself, you are a carefully selected talent from the king of this county, and the king of this county is very optimistic about you," You Shaojun patted the shoulder of the timid guard, encouraged him seriously, and comforted, "Even if it is discovered, what does it matter, you just say that the king of this county sent you back, for example, ......"

"The prince cares about how the ancestor's birthday banquet is prepared, let the little one come back and ask......" Li Bixian subconsciously continued You Shaojun's words and said.

"This isn't very clever, do it well!" You Shaojun smiled, and patted Li Bixian's shoulder again without hesitation and encouraged.

"Yes!" The king of the county is so polite and virtuous, and Li Bixian will not hesitate to go to the soup!

Watching Li Bixian regain his fighting spirit and turn away, You Shaojun also continued to boil pear paste, Li Bixian is indeed a rare good talent who was found in the guards by accident, but he is not very bold and has no confidence in himself, and needs to be encouraged from time to time, You Shaojun has led soldiers, and he is very good at pouring chicken soup for the soul, and he is as good at boiling pear paste as he does.

You Shaojun still remembers that in his previous life, the family home where he lived with Xiaozhu when he was a child was located on the outskirts of the city, which was connected to the barracks and the military hospital, and the kindergarten was also run by the army, only recruiting the children of soldiers, and it was in their family courtyard, where the living conditions were naturally not convenient in the center of the city, and the parents were very busy.

In such an environment, if a child wears a new dress, gets a new toy, or carries a few rare snacks in his pocket that cannot be seen on the market, he will definitely become a big man in the kindergarten and dominate for several days.

So You Shaojun can't forget that when he first met Xiaozhu's grandfather, the kind old man who always had a smile on his face came to visit relatives for the first time after his retirement, and not only brought many gifts to Xiaozhu and her brother, but also brought him and his sister a new set of clothes, a new toy and a pack of pear paste candy.

The pale yellow* color cube candy tastes a little bitter and a little sweet, but it is a little cool when it melts into the mouth, and it is a complex and rare thing that all the children in their compound have never eaten!

Xiaozhu's grandfather was a very good person! He only had this idea at that time, because Grandpa Zhu had been very busy in Kyoto before, and Xiaozhu and her brother were both brought to Kyoto to show Grandpa Zhu after they were born, and it was Xiaozhu and Grandpa Zhu who said that she had a friend named Da Baozi, who was born in the same hospital on the same day, the same month, and the same day as her, and as a result, Grandpa Zhu not only did not forget to give Da Baozi a gift, but even Da Baozi's sister did not forget it.

Because of course the old man would not have thought that Da Baozi had not become his grandson-in-law, Da Baozi's sister would become his granddaughter-in-law first.

You Shaojun only learned later that the pear paste candy that made him and Xiaozhu very beautiful in the kindergarten was actually boiled by Xiaozhu's grandfather himself, and then he and Xiaozhu learned to boil sugar with Xiaozhu's grandfather, of course, they inevitably sent a lot of pieces to their mouths privately.

Pear paste candy is not difficult to make, fresh pears peel and cut into small pieces, mash the juice to remove the slag, add rock sugar to boil into pear paste, add granulated sugar to boil into some dry and serve out, flatten on the board and cut into small pieces to dry, it is pear paste candy, sugar is better to preserve and carry than paste, he and Xiaozhu are used to bringing pear paste candy when they go to school.
