Chapter 7: Seeing the hawthorn has a flash of inspiration

Aunt Liu pitied her even more: "What kind of livelihood can you have, it's all a man's work, what can you do from a little girl's family?" ”

Liuli was slightly disappointed, but still asked, "Does the lady know how to get to the town?" ”

"What are you doing in town?"

"I want to go and see." Liuli Road.

Aunt Liu only regarded her childlike nature, and said with a smile: "This is easy, the day after tomorrow, my little grandson will be a full moon, and my aunt will go to the town to eat and drink, so you will go with me." ”

"Thank you, auntie!" Liuli was overjoyed, it would be nice to be able to go to the town to see it.

Aunt Liu had to leave the three sisters and brothers to eat, so she let them go.

The two little monkeys didn't know where Bai Baiye had gone, and their clothes were covered with soil, so Liuli asked them to change them and wash them themselves.

As soon as I took off my clothes, something fell out, and I got out of the way with a grunt.

"Yikes!" Amber screamed, climbed down the ground with his hands and feet and picked it up: "Second sister, give you the fruit." ”

Liuli looked at it, isn't this the hawthorn of the previous life? I didn't expect there to be one here, she picked one up and took a bite, it was so sour!

Casually asked, "Where did the hawthorn come from?" ”

"Hey, is this called a hawthorn?" Amber was also puzzled.

Liuli paused, thinking that the hawthorn might not be called this name here: "Oh, I said it casually, but where did this come from?" ”

"It's weird, hehe" Amber smiled, "I went up the mountain with the coral to pick it up this day, there are a lot of wild fruits on the mountain, but it's too sour, no one picks it." ”

It was indeed sour and astringent, and Liuli said: "It's delicious to make a rock sugar gourd." ”

"Rock sugar gourd? What is that? The two small asked curiously at the same time.

"It's to wear the hawthorn together and wrap it in syrup on the outside, it's sweet and sour, but it's delicious", Liuli pity the two little ones who haven't eaten the rock sugar gourd, so she said: "My sister will go to the town the day after tomorrow and buy a bunch with you to taste." ”

"But," Amber hesitated, "I've never heard of any rock sugar gourds before, where are they sold?" ”

"Haven't heard of it?" Liuli fox suspicious.

"Yes," Coral said, "When I was a child, my father took us to the town and ate Babao Sweet Brand, but I never saw a rock sugar gourd." ”

Liuli was ecstatic in her heart, could it be that there is no rock sugar gourd here? The famous Chinese snacks that have been popular for thousands of years in the previous life do not exist here?

At dawn on the second day, Liuli got up early, dressed neatly, wiped her face with a handkerchief, and went to the eldest sister's house.

The Shi family lives in the east of the village, and the rare bluestone big tile house stands out in Dawan Village, which is dominated by thatched houses and stone-walled earthen houses, so Liuli can easily find it.

The reason why this family is better than others is because of the tofu craftsmanship passed down from the ancestors, Shi's tofu is not to mention that it is famous far and wide, but it can still be called famous in these ten miles and eight towns.

When Liuli arrived, it happened that Pearl came out to pour water, and she saw her at a glance.

"Liuli, why did you come here?"

"Big sister, I have something I want to ask you." Liuli was worried about how to enter the door, but she didn't expect the pearl to pour out.

"What's the matter? Entered the house and said. As she spoke, Pearl pulled the glass through the door.

Liuli hurriedly refused: "No, big sister, I just want to ask you something." Is there a rock sugar gourd sold in our town? ”

"Rock sugar gourd is a very something, I have never heard of it."

Liuli thought about it, maybe this place is not called this name, so she took out the hawthorn picked by the amber yesterday from her bosom and came out: "It is a snack made of this fruit." ”

"I recognize this fruit, but it tastes sour, but I haven't seen anyone make snacks out of it."

Liuli was ecstatic in her heart, if you haven't seen Amber and Coral Children, but it's impossible for pearls to grow so big and don't know, it seems that this rock sugar gourd really doesn't exist here.

"Did you ever have sugar?" Ruri asked again.

"Sugar? I haven't heard of it, but there is caramel that we eat every day. ”

"Caramel sugar?"

"Well, it's at home, you want to eat candy, I'll fetch some for you." Pearl said, and without waiting for Liuli's reaction, she turned around and took the caramel candy.

Liuli opened it and saw that this was not the maltose in the previous life?

Since there is no white sugar, this thing can be melted and made into a rock sugar gourd, but the sweetness is slightly worse, but it is more beneficial to health than the sugar gourd made of white sugar in the previous life.

The two sisters were talking, and one of them came out with a basin: "Isn't this your maiden sister?" What are you asking for at our house again? ”
