Chapter 25: Heartbeat

Sheng Rong was slightly stunned, and immediately thought of what had just happened, and as soon as the front and back were combined, he came up with the result: "Do you know how to make orange syrup?" ”

"Hmm, I don't know if it's orange syrup." Jiang Yuanyuan shook her head, she walked with her hands behind her back and said, "It's what grandma used to make for us to eat, but we use cans, and we can usually eat one or two spoonfuls, which is very delicious." ”

"This kind of thing can be eaten as a snack, right?" Sheng Rong followed and thought for a while.

"Yes, you can also drink it, although it is not as delicious as eating, but the taste is also good." Jiang Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes, "Snacks, children love to eat them, and adults love to eat them, so there will be no shortage of people to buy them." ”

"And speaking of which, I just thought about something, this year's mulberries we harvested were distributed to the people in the village, and the people in the neighboring villages ate them, so many mulberries, we didn't have time to take care of them at that time, and they all rotted a lot." Jiang Yuanyuan thought about it, when the mulberries just grew, he and Sheng Rong were busy making the first batch of quilts, they didn't think of these and that, the fruit was eaten when it was ripe, and then Jiang's father and Jiang's mother had an accident, and they naturally forgot about the mulberries cleanly.

"There's a lot you can do with mulberries." Jiang Yuanyuan counted with her fingers, "That's what I've seen, there are dried mulberries, mulberry juice, we can make this orange thing if we die, mulberries can be tried according to the method, maybe it can also be made into something like this!" ”

"You can also make wine." Sheng Rong's eyes lit up, he had drunk the "blood wine" paid tribute by the Western Regions before, the color of this wine was dark red, the wine was sweet and delicious, he fell in love with this wine on the first sip he drank, but unfortunately this wine was tribute, very rare, he only got a cup at that time, and then he inquired in many ways, and only learned that there was an item called grapes in the Western Regions, and this wine was a fruit wine made of grapes.

He thought about it, so he pondered and got some of these grapes back, and planted them in the yard, but they were all green, and they didn't grow into that beautiful purple color, he studied for a long time, and later learned that this kind of thing is actually the same way, many kinds of fruits can be made into wine, this kind of wine is called fruit wine in the Western Regions, he specially consulted the envoy of the Western Regions, learned the method of making wine, he has tried many kinds of fruits, this fruit wine is really delicious, he made a lot of jars, but unfortunately the aged fruit wine has just been put away, He left home and didn't get a chance to take a few bites.

"Mulberries can be used to make wine?" Jiang Yuanyuan didn't understand, she frowned and thought about it, but she couldn't figure out how to make mulberry wine.

"Yes!" Sheng Rong laughed, "Not only can it be made, but it is also very delicious!" ”

"Thinking about it this way, we've really wasted a lot of money this year!" Jiang Yuanyuan pursed her lips, a little unhappy, "But it doesn't matter, knowing this, we will make good use of it next year." ”

Sheng Rong nodded in agreement.

"Let's go, go back first, I'll go to the orchard in the afternoon, and if the orange trees are still there, I'll go and talk to their farmer and sell us the pulp." Jiang Yuanyuan said.

"Done." Sheng Rong nodded, he raised his hand and rubbed his nose, "But if we want to sell it, we have to find merchants ourselves, Liu Lao helped us to build a line for the Wei family, and we have been very busy recently." ”

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Yuanyuan turned sideways and stopped, she looked at Sheng Rong with a smile, "Sugar water shops, snack shops, places to buy candied fruits, we can talk to them about business, this kind of business is a small business after all, it makes a small amount of money, and these stores are enough." ”

"No matter how bad it is, we can rent a stall and buy it ourselves!" Jiang Yuanyuan turned around and walked forward, Sheng Rong followed her, she deliberately missed two steps, followed behind Sheng Rong, looking at Sheng Rong's hand on the side, Jiang Yuanyuan's heart suddenly beat.

She often pulls Sheng Rong's arm, every time she is very anxious, she can always pull Sheng Rong's arm naturally at these times, but she really rarely touches Sheng Rong's hand.

This hand often covers her head, and every time there will be a warm warmth, I don't know, holding it, is it also warm, can she wrap her hand all!

Looking at it like this, in fact, Sheng Rong's hands are very good-looking! It has a bony feeling and slender fingers, which is very pleasing to the eye.

As if she had suddenly discovered some little secret, Jiang Yuanyuan covered her mouth and smiled quietly.

"Huh?" Sheng Rong turned his head to look at Jiang Yuanyuan suspiciously, Jiang Yuanyuan immediately stopped laughing, as if his little secret had been discovered, and suddenly felt a little weak and a little panicked.

"Dry... What! Jiang Yuanyuan looked at Sheng Rong dryly and asked bluntly.

Sheng Rong didn't know what was wrong with Jiang Yuanyuan, but he felt that Jiang Yuanyuan was really cute like this, his hand was put into a fist to his mouth, he covered his lips and smiled, shook his head slowly, and then continued to walk forward: "It's nothing, wait for you to continue!" ”

"I ......" Jiang Yuanyuan wanted to continue as if nothing happened, but suddenly forgot that she had just said that she had just gotten there, she was a little ashamed, she couldn't think about it, and her face was going to turn red.

"If we set up our own shop, it's tiring to run here all day!" Sheng Rong answered empathetically, Jiang Yuanyuan heard this, her memory returned, she immediately found her voice, and continued to continue as if nothing happened.

"You don't have to rent a fixed booth, well, there are many events from mid-October to November! Bazaars, temple fairs, these times can be, we bring our own things, at that time there are the most people, there are crowds of people, if someone likes it, it will sell quickly. ”

Jiang Yuanyuan said, her mind suddenly moved.

"Hmm...... Sheng Rong! ”

"What's wrong?" Sheng Rong asked.

"That's it...... The Mid-Autumn Festival ...... in October" Jiang Yuanyuan was a little ashamed, she blushed silently, and before she finished speaking, her face was already red.

"What's wrong?" Sheng Rong reached out and touched Jiang Yuanyuan's forehead, Jiang Yuanyuan was even more ashamed, she ducked back and turned her face away.

"Nope! Nothing! After speaking, he became angry first, his cheeks bulged, his mouth pouted, and he was uncomfortable.

Why are you so daring! Isn't it good to invite Sheng Rong with a louder voice! Even ordinary friends can participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival temple fair! What are you shy!

Jiang Yuanyuan's heart has been spurring herself, the more she thinks about it, the more frustrated she becomes, and she sighs behind Sheng Rong with her head down, feeling very uncomfortable.

When I returned home, it happened that Jiang Qian also came back, they slept at a relative's house for a night, and only rushed back in the morning, when I heard that Jiang Yuanyuan was going to the fruit farmer, Jiang Qian proposed to follow her.

Jiang Qian used to work here in this fruit farmer, she is very familiar with this side, and her friendship with the boss is also good, if she goes, Jiang Yuanyuan will facilitate a lot of things and save a lot of things.

The two went to the orchard hand in hand, they did not go to the fruit farmer immediately, but first went around to the back mountain to find this orange orchard, this orange orchard is not big, there is a circle of fences outside, and there are many thorny branches on the fence, the two of them can only vaguely see that there are two workers picking ripe oranges inside, the orchard has never lacked workers, each orchard has a lot of people, but this orange orchard, because there are few places, things are also few, and it is not valuable, so there are only one or two people.

Jiang Yuanyuan could see through the gap that the workers had directly thrown away the pulp, leaving only the skin, and she felt distressed in her heart.

"Yuanyuan, are you sure you want these fruits?" Jiang Qian was a little worried, "We have all tasted it before, this fruit is bitter and sour, super unpalatable, you have to think about it carefully." ”

Jiang Yuanyuan pursed her lips and nodded, and patted Jiang Qian's hand soothingly: "It's okay, grandma made that sauce for us before, I'm going to try it, don't worry." ”

"Is that sweet and sour sauce?" Jiang Qian's eyes widened, and she said happily, "This sauce is delicious!" But...... Do you remember how to make this sauce? ”

"I did it once with my grandmother! But...... I'm not sure, but I know the general steps, so I want to give it a try. Jiang Yuanyuan was embarrassed, "When the time comes, Sister Qian, you can help taste it!" See if the taste is the same. ”

"Why wouldn't I go to eat if I was invited!" Jiang Qian scraped the tip of Jiang Yuanyuan's nose.

"But I believe you, I learned from my grandmother several times when I was a child, and I didn't have any impression, Yuanyuan, you are skillful, you can definitely do it!" Jiang Qian said, pulling Jiang Yuanyuan to the fruit farmer's house.

"I just have a little memory, and I don't know if it's going to work." Jiang Yuanyuan shook her head.

"It's okay, let's buy some first, see how it works, and then continue to buy it." Jiang Qian shrugged.

Jiang Yuanyuan nodded, she thought so too.

The two talked and came to the fruit farmer's house, the fruit farmer's surname is Guo, it is Guojiawan's, his family used to have land, and later developed a fruit orchard, took their whole village to plant fruit trees and sell fruits, and made a lot of money, now the entire Guojiawan basically lives in the city, and the family is getting older, their children are out, but a few old people still live here to operate the orchard and live a life.

"This family is actually very good, they have several children, each of them is a little promising, and the family is not short of money at all, but the two old people just love to do this, they live here with a few brothers and sisters of their own family, and they live well!" Jiang Qian pointed to the house in front of her and said.

Jiang Yuanyuan nodded, she had heard about this Guojiawan before.

As soon as she walked to the door, Jiang Yuanyuan saw a group of old people enjoying the shade of the trees, the old people were still drinking tea, talking from time to time for a word or two, Jiang Yuanyuan saw that there was a pair of old people still holding hands, their recliner was very close, and the old woman's hand was held by the old man on her stomach.

This scene was inexplicably warm, and Jiang Yuanyuan wanted to cry when she watched it.
