Chapter 23 Baking

Shen Yu bowed her head and said nothing, and after feeding the decoction to the old lady, she thoughtfully took the candied fruit and put it in front of the old ancestor, "The old ancestor eats the candied fruit, go and get rid of the bitterness in his mouth." ”

As soon as she heard that the warehouse was leaking, Mrs. Sheng was a little angry, and she was even more dizzy and uncomfortable these days, so she invited a doctor to come over. The old lady is not happy, and the juniors below have to serve her, and Shen Yu is naturally no exception.

She wanted to ask for a Western doctor, but the old lady was not happy, so she gave up.

"Good boy has a heart, I heard Tao's mother say, you asked Hexiang to go to the teahouse a few days ago to get the damp tea leaves, but what is the way?" Old Lady Sheng didn't believe in any mourning stars, and when she saw that Shen Yu seemed to have something to do with the damp tea, she couldn't help but ask.

"Back to the old lady, I have some ideas, but I haven't succeeded yet." Shen Yu blushed, looked at Mrs. Sheng, and said cautiously, "I thought, the tea leaves can be dried to remove the moisture when they are damp, and the excess water vapor can also be removed by fire, so I took the damp tea and wanted to try to see if I could dry it a little." ”

The production process is different depending on the tea leaves. Most of the problems this time were hair tips, so Shen Yu also focused on the methods of dealing with hair tips. The process of processing Maojian tea in the ancient method is roughly picking, finishing, rolling, arranging, and roasting tea. In modern times, with the addition of a dryer, roasted tea has become a primary and re-roasted tea.

If roasting tea is the first step, roasting it again should not be a big problem.

It's a pity that Shen Yu has research on making tea and tasting tea, but she doesn't have so much experience in making tea, so she can only come little by little.

Mrs. Sheng naturally knew the truth, but she couldn't figure it out, "If the tea leaves are fried twice, the taste and shape will inevitably change......"

"That's what I thought, so I tried a lot of times, hoping to get the right heat." Shen Yu smiled shyly and put the soft pillow behind Old Lady Sheng.

"Does it work?" Mrs. Sheng felt that Shen Yu could always bring her unexpected surprises, but now there was no result, and he also wanted to know if it was effective.

"Not yet, but when I woke up this morning, it was much better than the other day. Do you want to taste it? Shen Yu instructed Hexiang to get the tea, and now that the Sheng family is here, let's see how much worse it is.

Waiting for Hexiang to take the tea leaves, Shen Yu brewed them and served tea to Mrs. Sheng, Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Yanqing respectively, and then stood aside and waited quietly.

Shen Yu got back the hair tip, the hair tip taste is light, and it is the most resistant to secondary baking, she thought of a lot of ways to save the damp tea for one or two points.

When everyone put down the cups, Shen Yu looked at Mrs. Sheng with burning eyes: "Old ancestor, how is it?" ”

"You kid has a heart, the tea will naturally change its flavor when it is stained with fireworks, and you actually used the branches of the Maojian tea tree to bake it, so that it is only contaminated with your original taste." After only tasting one bite, Mrs. Sheng smiled, "It's just that this tea tastes too old." ”

"Yes, that's the truth." Shen Yu nodded, looked at Old Lady Sheng and said, "But there is another way, but I have to ask the old lady for help." ”

Shen Yu thought of the most widely used dryer in modern times, although she had never used it, but she still knew the general principle. The provincial city has long been electrified, and the old house has not repaired the circuit, but there is a charcoal fire, if it is well controlled, the effect should be similar.

When the eldest lady heard this, she was immediately annoyed: "You broom star, don't be embarrassed here!" Don't let the tea not dry at that time, but it will ruin things! Who knows what kind of heart you have, whether you want to push our Sheng family into the fire pit. ”

"The damp tea leaves can't be sold out, and the left and right are things to be discarded, so why can't you give me a try? Maybe there will be a salvation. Shen Yu was not annoyed, smiled slightly, and looked at the old lady of the Sheng family.

The old lady groaned for a while, glanced at Sheng Yanqing, who was silent drinking tea, and turned her head and instructed Tao's mother, "Go and inform the subordinates, the young grandmother will give you everything, and you are not allowed to cheat and play tricks." ”

Tao's mother responded and went over to pass the word in person. Shen Yu also retired and went to the kitchen and craftsmen to find some tools to take advantage of.

In a short time, a simple dryer was made. Shen Yu used a copper pot to rest on the residual temperature of the charcoal fire, and did not release water, and then used a partition to separate a distance before putting the tea leaves.

A quarter of an hour later, Shen Yu took out the roasted tea leaves from the copper pot, his tentacles were dry, and he was overjoyed, so he took a teacup and a cup of water and sent it to Heshoutang.

"Made?" When the old lady saw Mother Tao bring tea in, she hurriedly sat up and reached out to pick it up, "I really let this kid make it out." ”

"It's just a blind cat running into a dead mouse." The eldest lady waited for the old lady for a while, and then she couldn't stand it and sat down to rest, and when she saw that Shen Yu really came up with a solution, she rolled her eyes again.

"Lu, do you have a way to deal with the dampness of tea?" The old lady caught a glimpse of the eldest lady's face, smiled, gently flicked the tea leaves floating on it with the lid of the bowl, took a sip, and asked slowly.

"How do I know? Since I was a child, although I have drunk a lot of tea, I have never made tea, how can I know how to get rid of the moisture of tea. The eldest lady replied as it should be, which made the old lady pull her face.

"Since you don't know, don't talk about it here. As an elder, you should be a role model for your children in your words and deeds, instead of thinking that you will only pour cold water on them! The old lady snapped and put the tea bowl on the mahogany table beside her, her face was quite unsightly.

Seeing this, the eldest lady hurriedly stood up and apologized: "Mother-in-law is angry, it's the daughter-in-law who is stingy." Shen Yu, she's really ......"

"She is only eighteen this year, but she is not happy, and Yanming's creation is not enough, what are you criticizing her for? I have been in you for so long, I already know what I have done, and I can reflect on what I have done to Yanming, who knows that you are so inadequate! Mrs. Sheng pulled her face, so that everyone couldn't help but smile, and obediently stood to listen to the training.

"The Shen family entered the door, that is the daughter-in-law of the Sheng family, and it is the Sheng family. I don't care what her original surname is, as long as she can be good to the Sheng family, it is my Sheng family! On the contrary, if anyone wants to dig into the corner of the Sheng family by relying on their own identity, my wife is not confused! ”

Mrs. Sheng didn't know about Sheng Yanwei going to the counter to gamble with money before, but after interrogating Sheng Yanwei that day and knowing that this was the eldest lady's acquiescence, she instantly understood, the reason why she has not had a seizure is because there is still a generation below the eldest lady after all, and she wants to save some face.
