5. Calculation
When he got home, Li Qixing rushed to find the old man, and as soon as he entered the house, he shouted, "Dad, the child has a recipe for making red fruits into food and selling them." ”
"Third child, you're crazy, how can anyone buy red fruits." Li Fu looked incredulous.
"Big brother, it's true, there are people in the capital who sell them and have eaten them."
Old Man Li took a puff of dry tobacco, "Third brother, go and call your daughter-in-law, and I'll ask her." ”
Lin Xue was waiting at the door, and when she heard it, she walked in, "Dad, you look for me." ”
Old Man Li pointed to the stool under him and said, "The third daughter-in-law is not reliable, and you can talk about the food carefully." ”
Lin Xue sat down and said with a smile, "Dad, that person is my mother's neighbor, I once went to the capital and saw someone selling red fruits over there, and I remembered it when I came back." ”
"If you can really sell it, why should people tell you? I'm afraid it's bluffing, and you're a fool to believe it. Wang sneered, she didn't believe that Hongguo could really be sold.
"Mother, it's true." Lin Xue defended helplessly, looked at Old Man Li and said, "Dad, let's try, if it doesn't work, it won't be like this, if it becomes it, it's also a progress!" ”
"yes, Dad, let's try." Li Qi was also on the side to help.
Old Man Li pondered for a moment and said, "Then you can do it, third daughter-in-law," and pointed at Zhang, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you can also help." ”
"Dad, let me go too, and I can give my younger siblings a beating." Zhao smiled flatteringly.
"Go, go." Old Man Li waved his hand impatiently.
"Dad, you need sugar to make this food." Lin Xue said to Old Man Li, but her eyes looked at the Wang family, after all, the sugar was controlled by the Wang family.
"Why do you need to use sugar, you greedy mother-in-law, do you know how much a pound of sugar costs, and what new food I think is your gluttony, I said how can red fruits be sold for money, it turns out that I want to cheat sugar to eat!" Wang pointed at Lin Xue's nose and scolded angrily.
Lin Xue's eyes were red, she had never been wronged in her previous life, she came here to live almost every three or five times, and this time she wanted to earn some money for this family and was scolded by someone pointing her nose, and she couldn't help crying.
"Mother, my daughter-in-law is not that kind of person." Li Qi ran over and clumsily wiped Lin Xue's tears.
"Dad, you need sugar to eat." Lin Xue said with a crying voice, "If my mother doesn't want to, forget it, just treat it as if I didn't mention it." ”
Old Man Li glared at Wang, "What's the matter, don't take out the candy yet, don't worry about your mother the third daughter-in-law, she just doesn't have a bad heart because she doesn't spare people." ”
Wang honestly took the key to open the cabinet, but his mouth was unrelenting, "Why can't I say it, she will pretend, that daughter-in-law has not been told by her mother-in-law." He took out the sugar bag and filled it in a bowl, and handed it over, "Save some use, if you dare to waste it, see how I clean you up." ”
"Alright, it's not over yet." Old Man Li slapped the table, "Third daughter-in-law, don't you see if these are enough, if there is less, let your mother take some." ”
Lin Xue took the bowl of sugar and said, "Enough Dad, don't take it." "If you don't look at Wang's gaze, you're going to eat people, if you want to estimate it again, you'll pounce.
In the kitchen, Lin Xue washed the red fruit and put it in a basin, and then boiled the sugar, poured the sugar and water into the pot at a ratio of 2:1 and stirred it with chopsticks.
"Sister-in-law, make the fire smaller, otherwise the sugar will burn." Lin Xue instructed.
"Brother and sister, see what I can do." Zhao carefully observed Lin Xue's actions, if she could do it, she would also sell it, anyway, there were many red fruits on the mountain.
"Second sister-in-law, you just wash the board and put it aside, and you will need it when the sugar is ready."
Twenty minutes later, the sugar in the pot became viscous and transparent, Lin Xue took out the prepared bamboo skewers and skewered the red fruits one by one, and then gently rotated the red fruits against the freshly boiled sugar, so that the red fruits were thinly coated with a layer of sugar, and after completion, put the red fruits on the cutting board and cool them for a few minutes until the sugar solidified.
"Brother and sister, that's it, it's too simple!" Zhang was a little skeptical, could this be delicious?
Lin Xue chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, you'll know when you taste it later, I haven't eaten it either, I just follow the recipe." "It looks simple, but boiling sugar and dipping sugar require experience, and in her previous life, she went to learn and practice for several months to make delicious sugar gourds.
Lin Xue wrapped the other red fruits with sugar one by one, put them on the board, waited for a few minutes, picked up the red fruits and looked at the sugar to see that the sugar had solidified, Lin Xue nodded and took some with Zhang and went to the upper room.
"Dad, you can taste it and see how it tastes." Lin Xue first gave one to Old Man Li, and then gave one to each of the others in the room.
"Dad, it's so delicious." Li Yue couldn't wait to take a bite, it was delicious when she looked at it, she didn't expect the red fruit to be so delicious.
"Grandpa, it's delicious." Several children praised as they ate.
"Yes, it seems that this recipe is real." Old Man Li had a smile on his face, "Third daughter-in-law, you have made a great contribution this time." ”
"Dad, then let's make more and sell it tomorrow." Li Fu's enthusiastic proposal.
"Yes, Dad, someone must buy this red fruit, and when the time comes, you can give Cheng'er some money, I heard Cheng'er say that several of his classmates have given gifts to the master, let's also give some, and the master will also mention more Cheng'er during the exam." Zhang ate a few red fruits and gave the rest to Erlang.
"Sister-in-law, what you said is not right, this exam is based on real skills, we can't go crooked." Zhao pursed her lips disdainfully, she still wanted to make two dollars to save a dowry for her daughter, how could she give it all to the big house.
"Brother and sister, you mean that we have no real skills." Zhang sat on the ground and shouted, "Dad, we Cheng'er didn't study day and night for this family, and now we are being told that we don't follow the right path, and we are wronged!" Dad, you have to be the master of our Cheng'er! ”
"Big, sister-in-law, I didn't say that, you get up quickly." The Zhao family hurriedly went to pull, Li Cheng is a special existence in the Li family, except for the old man Li, no one can say anything bad, the Zhao family was just quick to talk, and now he regrets it.
"What nonsense are you talking about, don't stand aside." Li Gui stood in front of the Zhao family and looked at Old Man Li flatteringly, "Dad, we all know the hard work of Cheng'er, do something that should be done, and it should be done." ”
"You all remember it for me, whoever dares to say that Cheng'er is not good at all, just get out of the Li family." Old Man Li reprimanded with a straight face, put down the red fruit in his hand and said, "Third daughter-in-law, you keep the rest of the red fruit and take it to the town to sell tomorrow." ”
"Dad, I see." Lin Xue thought for a while and said, "Dad, this thing is very simple to make, others can make it after a few more explorations, and it is estimated that someone else will sell it soon." ”
Old Man Li thought for a while, this was indeed a problem, "Third daughter-in-law, what do you say should be done." "This daughter-in-law has changed a little since she hit her head, she used to be like a mute, but now she can think about problems.
"Dad, I think so, we can sell the recipe, and then buy that red fruit field, so that we can make money continuously."
"Wonderful!" Old Man Li clapped his hands, "Boss, you will go to Lizheng to buy the land later, and no one is allowed to leak this recipe until it is sold." ”
