Chapter 169: Rock Sugar Gourd
Got it, got it, let you eat it and go back! Do you say that the people in your old Li family are all a group of foodies? Your aunt was deceived by me in a few meals, and so is your father, and now even you ............ The daughter-in-law hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, the ears are about to fall off, and there are children here, save me some face, save some face" Wang Xuan wanted to pretend to be thirteen, but obviously this time it was overturned, and before he finished speaking, Li Xin grabbed his ears from behind, and Wang Xuan, who was in pain, kept begging for mercy.
This made everyone present laugh, especially Li Chengqian, who had just been trained, laughed very loudly.
However, Li Chengqian's smile is still there, but Wang Xuan's deterrent power against him is still there, Wang Xuan just stared at Li Chengqian and covered his mouth in fright, and Cheng Chumo, the same kid as Li Chengqian.
Although the two little guys were temporarily restrained, they still begged for mercy.
In the end, it was because Ruyi and they came back with Wang Xuan that they needed something, which made Li Xin let Wang Xuan go.
"What do you see, don't go to work quickly, you two go to the back of the greenhouse, go pick some ripe fruits, as for you come over to me to string hawthorns" Wang Xuan is also a dermia, this dynasty was liberated, and immediately set up the shelf of the big lord, commanding everyone to start working.
In this regard, Li Xin glanced at Zheng Guanyin behind him, and did not say anything, but did what Wang Xuan asked.
Of course, Wang Xuan himself was not idle, he was also busy with Li Xin and the others, stringing hawthorns, and after about a dozen strings, Wang Xuan asked them to stay away from the stove.
Although Li Xin didn't know what Wang Xuan was going to do, they were still obedient.
After Li Xin and the others retreated to the side with the washed hawthorn, bamboo sticks and plates, Wang Xuan put the iron pot on the stove, poured some cold oil to wash the pot first, and then waited for the pot to be hot, put the heated hot oil everywhere, put a little cold oil into it, and then add a large amount of white sugar to start melting the sugar and boiling the syrup.
When boiling the syrup, in order to keep the syrup from sticking to the pot and prevent the syrup from overboiling, Wang Xuan lifted the iron pot from time to time to control the temperature.
During this period, Wang Xuan and Li Xin also explained the purpose of doing this, and also told them why he wanted to boil syrup.
Just based on the narration and the hawthorn in their hands, Li Xin and the others really can't imagine that the rock sugar gourd that their man said can be delicious?
On the contrary, Cheng Zimo was convinced of Wang Xuan's words, after all, in the eyes of the little girl, her uncle, was an omnipotent existence.
"Okay, the syrup is ready, Lianzhi will bring the hawthorn skewers on the skewers, and bring a few plates" After boiling the sugar for a while, Wang Xuan saw that the syrup was almost there, so he shouted at Lianzhi.
After Lianzhi brought the things, Wang Xuan put the iron pot on the stone table in the courtyard, picked up a bunch, and wrapped the stringed hawthorn in the syrup, so that the whole bunch of hawthorn was wrapped in syrup, and Wang Xuan quickly took it out and put it on the plate on the side.
With the success of the first string, a row of rock sugar gourds wrapped in syrup slowly came out of the pot on the stone table.
It's just a rock sugar gourd that has just come out of the pot, and the icing on the outside is still very hot, and it needs to be cooled before eating.
"Ruyi, you go and ask someone to use thatch to tie a straw hammer on the long stick, remember to tie a few more, Xin'er, don't be idle, hurry up and string hawthorn, and Lianzhi, this hawthorn is obviously not enough, you take someone to pick some back, let's do more, so that Gao Ming can take it back to the palace for a while, otherwise next time the little girl is coming, she will trouble me again" After the hawthorn strings in front of him were finished, Wang Xuan instructed Li Xin and them.
And Wang Xuan himself boiled up the sugar there, but this time there was still some syrup left in the pot, so he didn't add oil, but poured the sugar directly into it, but Wang Xuan didn't pour a lot at once, but poured it in batches, otherwise it would be easy to paste if he poured too much at one time.
"Uncle, they're back, do you see enough of these fruits?" Just as Wang Xuan was boiling the syrup, Li Chengqian came in a hurry and shouted at Wang Xuan.
This scared Wang Xuan, after all, the syrup in the pot can't touch water, otherwise the high-temperature syrup will fry up when it meets water and splash on people, it will definitely be a little syrup and a little blister.
"Stinky boy, be careful with me, the syrup in this pot is not a joke, it will fry when you encounter water, and if you get the fruit, you can quickly take it and wash it" Wang Xuan said to Li Chengqian with a straight face.
"Oh, I know" Hearing Wang Xuan's reprimand, Li Chengqian was still in high spirits just now, and he was dying, and he said to Wang Xuan, and went to wash the fruit with Cheng Chumo.
Wang Xuan saw all this, so he didn't say anything, but he also knew that what he did hurt Li Chengqian's heart a little.
After all, children are like this, what they do a lot of the time, especially the things arranged by their parents and elders, after they are done, they want to get a smile or a compliment from their parents and elders.
If they get it, they will be happy for a whole day, or even a long time, but what they want to get is a perfunctory answer, or an indifferent reprimand like Wang Xuan, maybe once or twice is nothing, they will be sad for a while, but if it keeps doing this, it may make the child have self-doubt, or even rebelliousness.
Although many times, the reprimands of parents and elders are subconscious, or because they are worried that their children will be harmed, as Wang Xuan did before.
But when children understand this, they just think that their parents and elders don't like them, and the parents and elders don't explain to their children afterwards because of the majesty of the elders' parents, which will cause misunderstandings.
If only the child could have a sensible teacher to enlighten afterwards, if not, then it will be like this for a long time, and the matter of relatives becoming enemies is really everywhere.
"Xianggong, did you treat Gao Ming too much just now, he doesn't understand the harm of syrup, you reprimand him like this, he must feel uncomfortable, or I'll go and talk to Gao Ming" Looking at the back of Li Chengqian leaving, Li Xin came to Wang Xuan and whispered to him.
"I've just gone a little too far, but apologize or something, it's still over in a while, I'll tell him myself! And in a while, I'm doing an experiment for you, and you will know how terrible this syrup is when it comes into water, so let that little guy calm down first! Maybe he'll figure it out on his own! Wang Xuan looked at Li Xin, who was worried, smiled and patted her hand, and said to her.
"Okay! You know what is going on, but I'm afraid that if you are stubborn, it won't be good" Hearing Wang Xuan's words, Li Xin smiled at him, and went back to the hawthorn.
