Chapter 80: Good Sugar
In the cold winter nights.
Zhang Yang lay on the bed, thinking about the problem of heating.
Li Yue snuggled up to her side, feeling her originally cold hands and feet become warm.
The little daughter-in-law in the quilt soon fell asleep.
Ben is a man of strong blood.
The heart silently meditates calm, calm, calm.
She was still young and in poor health.
It's like a knife constantly slashing the demons in your heart.
The night passed.
The sun shone into the room through the window, Zhang Yang got up and got dressed, today's weather is very good, at least the sunshine is much warmer than the previous two days.
When you open the door, fresh air hits your face.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yang scooped up the water with the ice slag from his own water tank and washed his face vigorously.
As soon as the cold water touched his face, there was a pain like piercing the skin.
Calm down, after a while...... Well! Refreshed.
Boil water, cook, and clean the yard again.
Pour some hot water into Li Yue's basin, and she also got up lazily.
Compared with washing his face with cold water, hot water is more suitable for Li Yue.
After making two bowls of porridge and frying two poached eggs with scallion oil, the couple can cope with a breakfast.
Li Yue ate the poached egg and said, "Huh? Why are you dark right now, haven't you slept well? β
Zhang Yang took a deep breath and said in his heart I can't sleep, you don't know?
Forget it, the little daughter-in-law is too simple to care about her.
Li Yue asked again; "Are you having a nightmare?"
Zhang Yang scratched the back of his head, "Well, yes." β
What a naΓ―ve daughter-in-law, she is at the best age.
Eating breakfast, Li Yue patted his chest in a hurry.
Zhang Yang quietly handed her a bowl of hot water.
Li Yue took the hot water and poured it down, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and choked on eating too quickly.
Aunt Wang next door happened to see this scene.
Zhang Yang and Li Yue have only been married for a year, and there is this silent tacit understanding between husband and wife.
After the meal, Li Yue washed the dishes and chopsticks diligently, and also washed the clothes.
Zhang Yang looked at the sugarcane that had been soaked yesterday.
Scoop up the bagasse that has been soaked in the basin and wring out the water vigorously.
Zhang Yang tasted the taste of the bubble, it was sweet, but not strong.
Put the water that has been soaked in sugar cane overnight and boil it in a pot.
The more the water was boiled, the less it became, and when it slowly turned into syrup, Zhang Yang took out some and tasted it, well, it was very sweet.
When the syrup thickens to a certain extent and becomes darker, withdraw the firewood and wait for it to slowly cool down, and after it solidifies, it will be lumpy.
Li Yue put on her clothes, and she sat in the yard, enjoying the warmth of the sun.
Five catties of sugarcane can make not much sucrose, three pieces the size of a fingernail.
This is also because the sugar cane bought is not fresh.
Originally, the loss of sugar was already very serious.
Zhang Yang ate a piece by himself, reminiscing about the taste of the sucrose made by himself and the industrialized one, and it was not too sweet.
Seeing Li Yue lying on the rocking chair with her eyes closed, Zhang Yang took the cane sugar and shook it on the tip of her nose.
Li Yue opened his eyes when he landed, "Sugar? β
Zhang Yang nodded.
Li Yue looked at the contents of the bowl and sniffed it again, "It doesn't look like caramel again." β
Zhang Yang handed her a piece, "Taste?" β
Li Yue took a small taste, tasted it and said, "It's sweet and sweet." β
In the Tang Dynasty, sugar was a very precious thing.
Poor families simply can't afford sugar.
This is all something that only the powerful have, and they still eat caramel candy.
In today's era of lack of nutritional supplements in Datang.
Brown sugar is also a good tonic for Li Yue.
Zhang Yang handed her another piece of brown sugar, "I think we will soon be able to eat sugar freely." β
Li Yue grinned and wrapped the piece of sugar in a small cloth, "I'll eat it later." β
Looking at her appearance, she is reluctant to eat.
What a precious sugar.
The refining technique of brown sugar is not difficult.
"Eating some of this candy is good for your body, don't be reluctant."
"I know, I'll eat later."
Li Yue said stubbornly.
Aunt Wang looked at this scene, shook her head and smiled bitterly, and was very relieved that Princess Runan was able to find such a husband, maybe it was the luck of the three lives that people said.
Walking out of the house, Zhang Yang walked towards the post house.
Recently, there are a lot of people from the Western Regions in Chang'an City who are still outsiders, Cheng Chumo has been lifted from the ground, and at this moment he is walking on Suzaku Street with a group of younger brothers.
Cheng Chumo's eyes swept across the street.
A face that is neither familiar nor unfamiliar, and neither strange nor unfamiliar appears in sight.
As soon as he walked to the door of the post house, Zhang Yang also saw Cheng Chumo.
The two stopped and were quiet for a long time.
Cheng Chumo was silent for a while before coming back to his senses, "It's you?" β
"Oh, it's not me."
Zhang Yang turned his head and walked into the post house.
"Phew! Hugh away! β
Cheng Chu shouted silently.
As Cheng Chumo's younger brother, only to hear Cheng Chumo's shouting, his evil was like hatred, and the younger brothers, who were representatives of justice, rushed into the post house.
Zhang Yang ran all the way into the post house, and saw a few very familiar guards at the door of the room on the second floor, isn't this Li Tai's kid's guard?
There is a savior!
"King Wei save me!"
Zhang Yang shouted, ran into the room, and then closed the door with his backhand.
Li Tai has been mixing with He Bi these days, and the secret recipe of hot pot is why He Bother gave.
At the moment, Li Tai is playing cards with Why Bother.
Li Tai looked at Zhang Yang suspiciously, "What's wrong?" β
As soon as the words fell, the door was kicked open by Cheng Chumo's younger brother, and a group of strong men rushed away.
"Who are you?"
Li Tai shouted.
"What a bold man, protect His Royal Highness the King of Wei!"
"King Wei be careful."
People gather by like, and things by groups.
Not to mention that there are not many people in Datang culture.
When people meet each other, they often don't need to say hello too much, and they know the intention when they make eye contact.
Li Tai's guards and these strong men quickly fought.
The gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, let Li Tai's guards stand for a while.
Zhang Yang came out of the window and saw why he didn't know when he was here.
Needless to say, the two smiled tacitly and thought of going together.
There was chaos in the inn room, and Li Tai was punched in the nose, "Why is this like this, why is it me again!" His mother! β
ββ¦β¦β
"It's too bullying!"
"Stop!"
Whoop! Cheng Chumo's little brother immediately stopped.
Don't look at Li Tai who is usually quite gentle, at this moment he kicked the opponent's lower three lanes, "Dare to hit me, hit me?" This king is deposed. β
Seeing Li Tai here, Cheng Chumo was also stunned.
Li Tai glared at Cheng Chumo angrily.
Cheng Chu silently kicked his little brother and said: "Kneel down and confess to King Wei, you don't have long eyes, you hit the wrong person!" β
Wow!
A group of strong men knelt on one knee, "I can't wait long, I hurt His Royal Highness the King of Wei." β
Things have been explained.
It turned out that Cheng Chumo didn't plan to do anything, thinking that Zhang Yang was a bad person.
I just want to keep people, I don't want to do it.
Who knew that the wrong person was beaten, Li Tai, the king of Wei, was here.
Cheng Chumo's father, Cheng Yanjin, is a well-known bastard in Chang'an City.
If you investigate it and provoke Cheng to bite the gold, I am afraid that it will be endless.
It's better to take advantage of this matter to make friends with Cheng Chumo.
