Liu San pointed to the glass bottle on the top of the cabinet, and looked back at everyone excitedly, "Dad, Mom!" So many pears can't be sold and can't be stored, so why don't we make them canned!? So that the pears don't get rotten. ”

Hearing this, Daddy Liu half-opened his mouth, his tightly locked brows stretched a little, and he rubbed his chin to ponder Liu San's words, "Yes, the second child has a very good method, and your mother happens to be able to make canned food." ”

When Aunt Liu heard this, she didn't agree very much, it is not difficult to make canned food, but it requires a lot of sugar, the family is too poor, where can there be extra money to buy sugar.

Daddy Liu saw his wife's thoughts, took out a few yuan from his jacket pocket, and handed it to Liu San, "You and your eldest brother go to the supply and marketing cooperative, buy a few catties of sugar and come back, let's try it first." ”

"Will this work? Don't do it, put a few catties of sugar into it? Aunt Liu looked at the tickets handed out, and was very reluctant, this money can buy a pound of pork.

Daddy Liu waved his hand and said with relief: "It's okay, just show your skills and make food for the children." ”

Aunt Liu's heart was at ease, and she no longer bothered about those catties of sugar.

Liu San and Liu Er trotted to the town's supply and marketing cooperative, the supply and marketing cooperative's façade is not big, but there are many kinds of goods on the shelves.

A row of canned food of this category was placed on the most conspicuous shelves, and Liu San rolled his eyes, thinking about inquiring about the price first, and then making his own canned food would be easy to price.

He pointed to the can next to him and asked the salesman, "Comrade, how much is this canned pear?" ”

The saleswoman was a young girl, perming the most fashionable rolls of wool, sitting behind the counter and rubbing her nails with her nail scissors. She glanced at Liu San with her spare eyes, and snorted coldly: "What's the matter, you're greedy?" You can't afford it. ”

Liu Er was angry, rolled up his sleeves and was about to find an explanation for his younger brother, but was stopped by Liu San before he could speak.

"Comrade, I'll buy three catties of sugar."

The salesman threw down the nail clippers and said angrily: "Five cents a pound of sugar, three pounds and a five!" Brought enough money? ”

Liu San took out a few dollars given by Daddy Liu, counted out a piece of five and put it on the counter.

The salesman snapped and slapped the money on the counter, and then reluctantly went to weigh Liu San with sugar.

After getting the sugar, Liu San and Liu Er left the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Second child, this person has such a bad attitude, why don't you let me teach her a lesson? She is called serving the people?! Liu Er puffed his waist.

"Do you want to travel more than ten miles to other supply and marketing cooperatives?" Liu San hugged the sugar and shook his head helplessly.

After the two brothers left, the salesperson turned around and saw the canned pears behind her, and she didn't know why, the more she looked at the shelf, the more awkward she became.

She picked up the front row of canned pears and tried to stuff them into the last row.

But she had just picked up the canned pears and was about to move the shelves, when she heard a click, and the wooden shelves were actually disconnected from the middle!

"Crackling", this layer of cans fell down the fracture, she couldn't resist it at all, and after taking one or two bottles, she could only watch the other cans smash to the ground.

The broken glass burst to the ground, and the frightened salesman even dropped the two bottles in his hand, covering his head and retreating again and again.

She's about to cry, what kind of evil did she fall for today? Do you have to clean up the shelves!?

Just as she covered her head in annoyance, a burning gaze shot at her back, burning painfully.

When she looked back, it turned out to be Director Wang of the supply and marketing cooperative, her face was as black as a black whirlwind, and her eyes at this time were afraid that she would have the heart to kill her.

The director stepped on the ground full of sugar water, pointed at her and scolded: "What are you doing!" So many cans are all dropped, are you crazy! ”

The salesman wanted to cry without tears, and he didn't even know how to explain. In the end, Director Wang was tired of scolding, and she was also scolded, soft and collapsed like a wicker with muscles and bones.

She drooped her head and didn't dare to speak, so she could only endure it, thinking that she was unlucky.

On the other side, seeing the three brothers coming back with sugar, Aunt Liu began to prepare tools for making canned pears.

She first found a few empty bottles, scalded them with boiling water, put them aside to cool, and then beckoned a few children to pick pears.

Liu Er was still angry and didn't want to participate in making canned food, so he volunteered to hug Liu Qiqi, looking at Liu Qiqi's star-like eyes, he inexplicably felt a sense of relief.

Liu San volunteered to pick pears, and according to Aunt Liu's command, he picked out more than a dozen white and chubby pears, put them in a basin of water, and peeled them one by one.

After cutting the pears in half and removing the pits, the processed pears are boiled in boiling water, and after boiling for about five minutes, Liu San plugs the coal stove to stop the air circulation.

After the temperature of the pot cooled down, Aunt Liu put three catties of sugar in ten catties of pears according to her original experience.

She stirred lightly in the pot and watched the sugar melt little by little.

When the pear soup is completely cool, Aunt Liu scoops the pears into a glass jar with a scalded spoon, then pours in the water in which the pears are boiled, seals them and preserves them.

A few days later, the canned pears were successfully made, and Daddy Liu opened a bottle and distributed it to several children, who all liked to eat, including the youngest Liu Qiqi, who was also very happy licking the sugar water.

Aunt Liu sighed deeply, although it is delicious, but this method of making canned food is too wasteful of sugar, white sugar is much more expensive than pears, if you use this method to make pears not rot, the gains outweigh the losses.

She discussed with Daddy Liu, but she still felt that the method of making canned food was not good.

Liu San looked at the rest of the cans and thought about it, "Daddy, the canned food of the supply and marketing cooperatives costs three yuan for a bottle, let's sell these bottles, won't we have money to buy sugar?" ”

Thinking of the captain's black face a few days ago, Daddy Liu had a headache, "No! Speculation is serious. ”
