Chapter 197 Research and Development of Fruit Juice
Liu Sanniang brought watermelon, and the ugly apples of the mountain peaches that the Gan butcher and his two grandsons had worked hard to pick immediately became unsightly, threw them into the stream, and said that they wanted to eat watermelon.
Liu Sanniang picked up a wooden stick and stuck it in the stream to prevent the fruit from flowing down the water, "It's good to take this fruit back and let the family try it." ”
Ate watermelon, and ate the dim sum pie brought, rested enough and went into the water to play, Gan Xiaotang played in the water for a while and went ashore, changed into dry clothes and lay on the carpet to play, the thick greenery blocked the sun, but also blocked the summer heat, and from time to time a gust of breeze blew, so comfortable.
Gan Xiaotang's eyelids gradually became heavy and fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she was already on the donkey cart going back, and she got up, "Why did you go back?" ”
"The stream was too cold by mid-afternoon." Liu Sanniang said, "You just sleep like a piglet, and you can't wake up no matter how you scream." ”
Gan Xiaotang looked at Gan Zizi lying in her arms, "Twelve is a little pig." ”
"Twelve didn't sleep until he got to the car." Liu Sanniang said, "Did you have fun today?" ”
Gan Xiaotang nodded, annoyed that he had fallen asleep and had played for so long in vain.
"You have to like to play, and I'll take you over again before the Mid-Autumn Festival." Gan Tuhu drove and said, "If you find such a good piece of land, even if this year is over, next summer, Ah Weng will take you to play a few times." ”
"Aung is so nice." Gan Xiaotang leaned on Gan Butcher's back and said coquettishly, Liu Sanniang hurriedly reached out to help her, "Be careful of falling." ”
Went to Maple Village to put down Yan Wan, and gave her a lot of peaches and ugly apples, the nurse came out to pick up and said sorry, she didn't approve of Miss going to Gan's house to learn cooking before, anyway, Miss is also an official lady, cooking can only be the icing on the cake to serve Weng Po, do you really want to make a living from it?
But Miss went to Gan's house to learn art after a lot of cheerful personality, although Miss was born to a serious lady, but her mother died early, and her father became a stepfather when she had a stepmother, and the two of them lived in their hometown, and they only had a tile to cover themselves and starve to death.
Those relatives are polite on the surface, and when they play, children talk hurtfully, but they only have one sentence that children are not sensible, children are not sensible, but those words are not taught by adults, how can children speak?
Miss is often at home, not very fond of going out, not like to socialize, although ladies are demure and precious, but the nurse is also worried that she is too introverted, after marrying a loss.
Now it's okay, Miss went to the Gan family to learn art, not only the skills learned, but also a lot of lively, and now there are many people surnamed Zheng who want to go to the Gan family to learn art through Miss, so they are more warm and polite to them.
When I got to the city, I had to send Tang Xiaowen first, Gan Zi also woke up at this meeting, sat on the donkey cart and rubbed his eyes, You Gui came out and brought a box of snacks, and asked Eleven to take it back to eat.
Liu Sanniang said thank you to her aunt, "My aunt is so polite every time and doesn't let me go empty." ”
"That's what you have to eat and have fun, you all think about Xiaowen." You Gui smiled and said, "This little girl now only wants to run to her aunt's house, and she hates that her house is lonely and not fun." ”
"I'm worried about playing at this age." Liu Sanniang said.
To Ruyi Fang, Wulang and a few were playing on the street, and saw the car coming up, and when they heard Xiao Jiu Xiaoten say that they went to the mountains to play in the water today, they stopped doing it, saying that Ah Weng was eccentric, and only took a few of them to play in the mountains and water, and they also wanted to go.
Because he was so angry, he didn't eat even the fruit from the mountains, but sat under the porch, leaving only a row with his back to the people.
"Alright, Goro, don't mess around with your brother." Zou Xiaoxi came out of the kitchen with food, "You want to go to the school, and you can still just think about playing all day long like an ignorant child?" ”
"Then why don't you go to the school?" Gan Shanli said.
"Okay, next time I'll take you with me, come and eat." Liu Sanniang said.
"What's next?" "Seeing that the summer is coming to an end, will you still take us to play in the water when it's cold?"
"Your grandmother said she would take you there, and if you ask more, you won't be allowed to go." Tang Qian'er said.
"Playing in the mountains is cool, and I want to play too." Gan Er said.
"I kind of know where Hachiro's monkey tendons come from, and the feelings are with your roots." Tang Qian'er laughed at him, and when he was old, he was as playful as his son.
"They won't eat the fruit they brought back, but they will pound the juice tomorrow and give it to Eleven to drink." Liu Sanniang said. "Is there enough ice at home? There should be one last cellar of ice this year, right? ”
"Buy more ice tickets, children are afraid of heat, can't save this money."
"I bought enough ice tickets, anyway, I can't use them up this year, and I will use them again next year." Zou Xiaoxiao said.
On the second day, after Liu Sanniang finished making braised vegetables, she and Gui Niang were ready to pound the juice together, Gan Xiaotang came over to join in the fun, picked up the soft fruit and put it in the stone bowl, and then used a pestle to mash it, took clean ice from the ice cellar at home, followed it with a bowl below, and crushed it into ice chips with a knife above.
This, isn't this just shaved ice?
Gan Xiaotang let out an uninformed exclamation, this is a magic product to cool off, I haven't seen it before and I don't want to, but now when I see it, I immediately talk about it and want to eat.
"Eleven hasn't had a cold drink before?" Gui Niang asked with a smile.
"I didn't let her eat it." Liu Sanniang said, "The cold drinks sold on the street are always worried that the ice they use is not clean, and they have diarrhea after eating." ”
The peaches were mashed into a paste, poured into an ice bowl with the juice, and then scooped a spoonful of honey to let Gan Shiyi drink it together, Gan Xiaotang drank the peach ice and was very satisfied.
Then I want to do it myself.
"Good boy, this is heavy." Liu Sanniang said, "If you want to play, Grandma will find another one for you." ”
Liu Sanniang found a set of wooden bowls and pestles for her, Gan Xiaotang will not simply pound peaches, cut the peaches into appropriate amounts, cut the apples into appropriate amounts, and then mash them, the dregs should be filtered with a filter cloth, diluted with water, a little ice cubes, and then drizzled with a little honey, so as to get a perfect cup of juice.
It took a long time to get a glass of juice, half of it for myself, and half for Twelve.
After drinking it, who doesn't like to drink sweet water?
So Gan Xiaotang held his already sore hand, continued to pound the juice, and made a big pot, so that everyone could get a small bite in the evening.
The juice was delicious, and Gan Xiaotang wanted to continue drinking it, but she didn't want to make it herself, so she took the initiative to find Gan Mingli, snuggled up to him and said sweetly, "Third brother, is the juice I pounded delicious?" ”
"It's delicious." Gan Mingli said, he pinched Gan Xiaotang's arm, "Such a big pot was made by yourself?" Your hands are sore. ”
"It's sour." Gan Xiaotang said coquettishly, "I don't want to be so sour next time I drink juice." ”
"It's easy to say, as long as the third brother is at home, the third brother will do the physical work for you." At this time, Gan Mingli thought that Gan Shiyi came to him to let him pound the fruit.
"Third brother make me a gadget, and I can squeeze juice without effort." Gan Xiaotang said.
Gan Mingli then realized that he wanted him to spend his brainpower, "Say, what do you want, my brother will try to do it." ”
"There was a thin blade stuck in a stick, and there was a hand shaking on it, and I shook it, and the blade turned in it, and in a short time it was all cut to pieces." Gan Xiaotang said simply.
Gan Mingli heard the words and said, "How thin is this blade?" How many blades do you have to set in this stick to break the fruit? ”
"Well, I can't talk to you, wait until I think about it." "This blade is estimated to be made by the blacksmith, and it will take a little time, so you can wait." ”
