Chapter 166: Persimmon Cake

"There is the village chief of Lao, it seems that I can't go back tonight, I am really grateful for arranging accommodation." The little guy had already gotten off the cart at this time and said to the village chief.

This is not the first time that the village has greeted visitors, and in the past, it was too late to arrive at night and could only stay in Stone Village, so the village chief prepared to build an inn for outsiders to stay overnight with the power of the village, so as to avoid the anxiety of bringing them into the house, this matter was also discussed with Pei Qingrin, and everyone unanimously decided that it was good, and then this matter would be done before the year.

In the past six months, the stone village has been reborn, it used to be a mountain village far away from the town, but now because of Yu Shu's drive, the whole village has income, and it has become a famous place, and the big tiger and others have become the people who guard the stone village, and they have nailed road signs on the official road leading to the stone village, so as not to get lost by strangers.

The people of the town even went to Stone Village every day to purchase, and after getting the unanimous consent of the villagers, the village chief took out a piece of land in the center of the village and built an inn.

The next day is the winter solstice, the villagers of Stone Village have the custom of eating rice balls on the winter solstice, the rice balls imply reunion, every family will make their own rice balls, and Yu Shu has a treasure book in hand to make it easier.

It's just that the Sha family and the Hu family are very few people, Yu Shu decided to make three families and make a family in a yard to make rice balls and eat rice balls, which is also a strange custom, in the past, Yu Shu's place was to eat dumplings on the winter solstice, but I didn't expect the ancient place to eat rice balls.

A few days ago, the tiger family came to himself and said that they would make winter solstice balls together, but they didn't react for a while, and then they realized that it was the meaning of the rice balls, Yu Shu knew many ways to make rice balls, but it was difficult to make them without ingredients.

"I am a year older after eating the winter solstice group, and this year is almost over, this year the village has really changed, and now I have to do a village inn, and we can also share a cent of profit in each family every year in the future, think about it, it's really incredible, the stone village used to be notoriously poor, but now it's notoriously rich!" Women like to gossip when they sit together.

In the past, because Shicun lived far away from the town and the mountains, most of the people in the village were mountainous and the farmland was not easy to cultivate, and the villagers had to collect high tenant profits when renting from others, and the villagers were miserable.

"That's not, in the past, when we said kiss, we frowned when we heard Stone Village, and even some people refused to marry, but now it's not a girl from this ten miles and eight villages, I am proud to be able to talk about the relatives of Stone Village, I see that many babies are no longer a headache!" Someone else said.

This is all the change after Yu Shu came, everyone praised Yu Shu for being capable, smart and beautiful, and soon made the dumplings in the women's boastful talk.

A few idle little babies moved out of the stove under the leadership of Xiaobao and burned the stove, just waiting for the rice balls to be put into the pot, the rice balls made by Yu Shu were added to the green vegetable juice to become green rice balls, and the ordinary rice balls were put down together.

"Now that the village is an inn, the men are busy doing things, do we pack these dumplings and send them over, or do we put them here and wait for them to come back to eat?" Yu Shu asked.

Because the village chief said that it would be completed before the year, and it could be put into use directly next year, this world is a bit rushed, and the men of the whole village will work together.

Because they were afraid that the rice balls would not taste good after being in the pot for a long time, several women still packed a whole pot of rice balls and sent them to the foundation to eat the rice balls.

"The men will rest for a while, and we will bring the dumplings over, and we will eat them before making them." No one dared to take it seriously when the tiger sister-in-law shouted at her throat, and everyone stopped their work one after another, came to the boiler and waited to eat a bowl of rice balls.

At this time, everyone was also hungry, and it tasted good, so they all ate a lot before putting down the bowl, and the tiger sister-in-law praised Yu Shu for her ability, these rice balls were all taught by her to make, Pei Qinglin ate the things in the bowl and felt warm.

Because we want to build an inn, we should have a larger yard, so that we can park the cattle when the time comes, and we will prepare to make a school so that there will be enough houses and a large yard.

"You go back and make more dinner, I plan to invite my brothers to dinner tonight." The big tiger asked the mother-in-law to remember to cook and wait for him to come back, and the tiger sister-in-law resigned herself to packing up the boiler and taking the women back.

Tonight, the big tiger's family feasted, Yu Shu followed Zhang Luo's own house and didn't cook anymore, now the weather is getting colder and colder, the persimmons in the yard have grown, Yu Shu Zhang Luo picked them off and prepared to make persimmon cakes to eat.

"Persimmon cake? What is that? Can I learn? Sister-in-law Liu thought that it must be delicious when she heard what Yu Shu said, and she had to learn it, Yu Shu thought that there were many people in the village who had planted persimmon trees, and they could also make persimmon cakes to sell together.

"First of all, we need to pick the persimmons, pay attention to the green persimmons that are not yet ripe, and then use scissors to cut off the excess branches, leaving only a few stems." said that she wanted to make hanging persimmons, Yu Shu opened up the next day, and asked Pei Qinglin to pick them, and then let a few women who wanted to learn come over to observe and teach while doing it, and teach from the first step, if the persimmons can't be ripe, then pick them and do them, then it won't be good.

"After cutting, we have to clean the persimmons, be careful not to spoil the skin, and wipe them dry one by one after washing, this process is easy to bump into the persimmons, everyone should be careful." Yu Shu taught to the second step.

Everyone nodded and followed to learn to make their own persimmons, and found that it was indeed easy to touch when cleaning, but fortunately it would not rot, and after doing it, they looked at Yu Shu again.

"Next, we have to peel the persimmons one by one, peel the persimmons clean, and don't throw the skins away that we can still use later." Yu Shu used a small dagger is not very natural, she used to use a paring knife to peel the skin with a dagger, she did it carefully, Pei Qingrin couldn't stand it, and took it and peeled all the persimmons.

"At this time, we use the prepared rope to thread the needle from the middle and then through the stem, if there is a nucleus out, remove the nucleus by the way, so that after the tie is tied, it will fall under the eaves and dry." This is the process of making hanging persimmons.

At this time, Yu Shu put away the persimmon skin, put it on the dustpan and took it out to dry, which was later for backup, and the next thing was to let the persimmon hang in a ventilated place for ten to fifteen days.

"Wait until fifteen days have passed, let's move on to the next step, let's do it now, I can ask me any questions." The hanging should be sunburned, Yu Shu did this step well, and let everyone go back fifteen days later.

Everyone heard that they took their persimmons back first, and they needed to air dry for fifteen days, of course, this is the ancient science and technology was not developed, if it is produced by modern machines, it can be directly dried on the same day with the machine to continue the next step to mass production.
