Chapter 35: Temporary Trust
Jiang Xuehe's mother Pei is a person who can make a lot of delicate snacks, Jiang Xuehe has learned a lot from her before, although it is a dim sum that has never been seen in this village, but Jiang Xuehe has still seen a lot of dim sum sold in the city, so she never thought that she could make money from dim sum before. She wants to continue to do the flower and plant business, but she is still young, and now she is in this situation, those who trusted her parents at the beginning may not also trust her, and she has nothing now, so what can she do with others?
Therefore, Jiang Xuehe thought about starting from small things and making some small things to sell first. A few days ago, she referred to the "Flower Spectrum" in Qionglu's fantasy world to make some small snacks related to flowers, and at that time, Gu Siyan said that with her current skills, she was afraid that the dim sum shops outside could not compare, so Jiang Xuehe had some ideas.
Anyway, she naturally likes all kinds of flowers, whether it is planting flowers or making flower-related snacks, she is dealing with flowers.
It just so happens that her two younger sisters have learned to make dim sum, Jiang Yunlan has always learned well, Jiang Yuxuan is less talented in this area, but it is okay to start. Jiang Hanxiao has never made dim sum, but he is familiar with the kitchen and is also handy in helping inside.
Jiang Xuehe first took a few sisters to wash all the petals they picked together, and then poured them into the milk she specially bought and mashed them together. There are not many people who can drink cow's milk these years, but there is a Gu Hua mother-in-law here in Gujia Village who seems to use cow's milk to cook porridge when she needs it because of physical reasons, so the family has an old cow who can produce milk. Jiang Xuehe saw in the book that the peach blossom cake needed milk, so she went to buy some from Gu Hua's mother-in-law, and even brought a big yellow cow and a small yellow cow back.
"I've heard people say that cow's milk is fishy, will the pastry really taste good?" Jiang Hanxiao said suspiciously, "The fourth sister actually bought two scalpers directly and came back, aren't you afraid of losses?" ”
"It's nothing, even if you can't sell it, you can eat it. Since Gu Hua's mother-in-law needs to use cow's milk because of her physical relationship, it means that cow's milk is good for people's bodies, and it's a big deal to use it to supplement Gu Siyan's body. Jiang Xuehe said with a smile.
As soon as she brought the two cattle back, she squeezed a few bowls and sent them to Gu Siyan and the three brothers and sisters, except for Gu Sixing, who were not used to drinking. But milk doesn't have to be drunk raw, and if it's mixed into pastries, maybe it tastes good?
After Jiang Xuehe thoroughly mashed the peach petals in the milk, she mixed them with several other sisters, stirred them well, poured them into the pot, and added pure lotus root powder to them.
Jiang Yuxuan was very strange when she saw the lotus root powder: "Are these the two boxes of lotus root noodles at home?" It seems to taste the same, how did my sister bring it out? ”
Jiang Xuehe was speechless for a while, before she got married, she thought that these lotus root noodles would be cheaper at home in the end, so she simply brought them all out, and she was also very happy when she could come in handy this time, but she let Jiang Yuxuan find out before she could think of a good rhetoric.
"Because Jiang Taohua always sneaked into my room to steal things before, I secretly moved some things outside in advance to hide them, and later moved back to the Gu family one after another." Jiang Xuehe reluctantly said, "But you can't let others know about this." ”
Jiang Yuxuan smiled: "Sister, don't worry, I'm not a fool, so I won't let others know about this!" ”
Jiang Xuehe nodded hurriedly, and Jiang Yuxuan leaned into her ear and whispered: "I just think my sister is so powerful, she can sneak so many things out, but no one in the family finds out." When did my sister find out that my aunt was not a good person? ”
Jiang Xuehe had no choice but to say: "I didn't find it at first, but Jiang Taohua has always been difficult to get along with, so I still guard against her." ”
Jiang Yuxuan nodded thoughtfully, Jiang Xuehe didn't know what she had understood, anyway, she didn't want to mention this stubble anymore, so she quickly led the topic to other things, and told her sisters about the short gossip of some parents in several nearby villages. Originally, the sisters basically stayed at home, and they didn't know most of the things in the village and interpersonal relationships, but at that time, they had their parents to protect them, and it didn't matter if they were ignorant. But now that their siblings have lost their protection, if they still don't care about external affairs as before, it will be easy to be deceived, and it will be bad for them to behave in the world.
After almost an hour of talking and laughing among the sisters, the contents of the pot were almost fused, and Jiang Xuehe instructed the sisters to pour the thick and smooth boiled ones into the mold she had prepared earlier.
"Is that okay?" Jiang Yuxuan asked curiously, "How long does it take for this thing to take shape?" ”
"It's going to be night, right?" Jiang Xuehe smiled, "Let's move these to the yard first, and then let's make wine together." ”
Jiang Yuxuan was pleasantly surprised: "Is my sister going to make peach blossom brew?" ”
Jiang Xuehe nodded, and Jiang Han smiled and said curiously: "What is peach blossom brewing?" A type of wine? ”
Jiang Yuxuan said with a smile: "Yes, it is a sweet wine with peach blossom fragrance, and my mother used to brew one or two jars every year to satisfy our sisters and brothers." ”
Jiang Han smiled and hooked Jiang Yuxuan's nose and smiled: "How did you know to drink at such a young age?" ”
Jiang Yuxuan pouted and said, "Then it doesn't matter, the peach blossom brew is not called wine for my father at all, but honey mixed with a spoonful of wine." My mother also said that it was originally for the girl's family to drink and play, didn't the sixth sister drink it before? ”
Jiang Hanxiao thought about it: "You mean, the peach-flavored sweet water sent by the second aunt in the past is peach blossom brew?" ”
"That's right, that's it, my mother said, it's also good for the girl's family to drink it, and she specially taught my sister how to brew." Jiang Yuxuan hugged Jiang Xuehe's arm and smiled, "Sister, how many more jars will I brew this time?" My second sister and I both like it, and I see that my sixth cousin also likes it. By the way, there are also Sister Sixian, such as Sister Xiaohua and Sister Ruyue! Now that there are so many sisters in the family, there should always be more brewing, right? ”
Jiang Xuehe pinched her nose and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about your own gluttony, why do you still want to pull everyone into the water?" Even if I want to make more wine, I have to have enough ingredients, right? You can brew as much honey and peach blossoms as you want. ”
Jiang Yuxuan was very sorry when she heard this, and muttered in a low voice: "If I knew this, I should have pounded some fewer petals just now." ”
Jiang Xuehe couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, thinking that her sister was fortunate not to get fat, otherwise she would probably not be able to marry in the future.
Making peach blossom brewing is much smoother than making peach blossom cake, because in the past, when Pei's made peach blossom brewing, the three sisters watched from the sidelines, and also listened to Pei's personal explanation, and often took a hand from time to time, so it was very handy.
But whether it is making peach blossom cake or peach blossom stuffing, Diao Ruyue consciously avoided it. She knew that Jiang Xuehe still didn't trust her now, and since people wanted to drive her away at any time, she should naturally be more interesting and stay away.
Jiang Xuehe didn't think so, she felt that she was also awkward, obviously guarding against Diao Ruyue, but when she saw that Diao Ruyue was really far away, she felt strange in her heart.
"You don't have to deliberately hide, whether it's peach blossom cake or peach blossom stuffing, it's not a big deal, you learn to give me a hand." Jiang Xuehe said awkwardly, "The more you avoid suspicion, the more awkward I look at, and the more suspicious I always feel you." But in the end, although I am guarding against you, neither I nor the Gu family should have anything you are trying to do, right? ”
Diao Ruyue said with a smile: "Speaking of which, although the Gu family does not have what I am trying to do, there is something by my wife's side." ”
Jiang Xuehe frowned: "What are you trying to do?" ”
"I'm at peace with Mrs. Tu."
When Jiang Xuehe heard this, she only felt that Diao Ruyue was talking nonsense, how could there be any peace around her? She felt that she was noisy and annoying every day.
Diao Ruyue felt that although Jiang Xuehe had a lot of troubles around her, they were all short-term worries of parents, and they were not as terrible as the world outside. Diao Ruyue sometimes thinks that those people in the West Courtyard are too annoying, but those people are also stupid, and they are easy to deal with, compared to the Park family.
"Forget it, I don't bother to care what you're thinking, anyway, it's only two years, and you can live like Xiaohua in the past two years. Since Xiaohua believes in you, then I will also believe in you. Jiang Xuehe thought for a while and said, "I don't worry about you, because I can't see through what you're thinking." It's just that these days, you care about Sister Haini, although you have a heavier mind, but you shouldn't have bad intentions. Everyone has something hard to say, and I don't ask anything. It's just that since you want to stay, you can't always look like you're outside, at least you have to blend in like Xiaohua, right? ”
Diao Ruyue wants to say that not everyone can be as innocent and cheerful as Yang Xiaohua and can quickly integrate into any environment. Just thinking of what Jiang Xuehe said just now and her previous attitude towards her, and then thinking that she was actually the same as Yang Xiaohua before, she finally nodded and didn't say anything.
"Although I don't know why you are so careful, but you have to think about everything, do you think which of your parents and brothers has not suddenly undergone a great change? But they're all doing well now, aren't they? People have to look forward. If you can let go of the things in the past, you can put them down, and if you can't let go, you can bury them in your heart for the time being, and wait for the day when the time is ripe to deal with them directly. Jiang Xuehe clapped her hands, and suddenly felt that she also had the demeanor of a woman in the rivers and lakes, but it was a pity that she didn't know martial arts.
Diao Ruyue was amused by her, and finally nodded: "I listen to Madame." ”
"Okay, then I'll go and see Xiaozhu Xiaoliu, you look at these pastries, see that they are almost condensed, and move them into the warehouse, this is the key to the warehouse." Jiang Xuehe simply gave her the key to a warehouse, so that it would be convenient for Diao Ruyue to clean up for a while.
Anyway, it's just a warehouse for storing sundries, and it's not a big deal to hand it over to Diao Ruyue for the time being.
