Making canned fruit?

When the boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives heard Xu Mo say this, he hurriedly waved his hand, thinking to himself what was there to do with that thing:

"If you want to eat canned food, then you can't buy it directly, I just have it in this store."

"It's good to eat ready-made, it's cumbersome and cumbersome to make, and it's not necessarily delicious to make yourself."

After saying that, he walked to the counter on the side, rummaged through the inside, and finally pulled out the last bottle of canned yellow peaches from the shelves in the big inside.

The old house was dusty, and a layer of dust had accumulated on the cap of the canned yellow peach.

The boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives casually wiped the ash on the bottle cap with his hands, wiped the bottle cap clean, and then handed it to Xu Lan, saying with a smile on his face:

"Look at your luck, this is the last bottle of canned food on the shelf, if you come a little later, you may not be able to buy it, if you want it, this bottle will be sold to you."

"Recently, the autumn harvest has been busy, our family is busy harvesting rice, and no one in this store is taking care of it, so I don't have time to go to the city to buy goods, you see this shelf is selling almost empty in the past few days."

After speaking, he pointed to the last bottle of canned yellow peaches on the table:

"Now these canned yellow peaches are in demand."

In the 80s, there was a shortage of materials, and transportation was not developed, so there were only a few kinds of fruits and so on.

In this era, when I usually go to the hospital to visit patients, or visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, the big guys have to buy a few bottles of canned yellow peaches and brown sugar as gifts.

The boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives was worried while talking, many daily necessities were about to be sold out, and when the rice at home was harvested, even the daylily was cold.

Xu Lan took the canned yellow peach in the hands of the boss of the supply and marketing cooperative, and only then did he realize that he was not here to buy canned food.

Off topic, off topic.

But now there is no glass bottle, so her plan to make canned fruit will be ruined.

She gets a headache when she thinks about the pile of fruit at home.

Xu Lan held the canned yellow peaches, chatting with the boss of the supply and marketing cooperative, while looking at the goods in the supply and marketing cooperative, to see if there were any objects that could replace the glass bottles.

Xu Mo looked at it for a long time, and just when she was about to give up, she caught a glimpse of the large bucket used to hold sesame paste in the grain and oil area, and a large cardboard box was placed on one side of the barrel, and a glass bottle containing sesame paste was placed in it.

In the eighties, the general condiments were in bulk vats.

Bulk liquor, bulk white sugar in large bags, soy sauce vinegar in barrels, and then people will come from home with empty bottles to buy it.

Xu Lan walked over excitedly and took out a glass bottle from the cardboard box, although it was a little smaller, but it should barely be usable.

But can this bottle be sold?

It would be embarrassing if someone came over to get tahini and there weren't enough bottles.

So Xu Lan held the glass bottle and asked the boss of the supply and marketing cooperative:

"Boss, can you sell me a few of these glass bottles?"

The boss of the supply and marketing cooperative, when he saw it, nodded again and again, you see if this is a glass bottle, he forgot about it.

He thought there were no glass bottles on the shelves.

Generally, when he buys it, a large bucket of sesame paste will come with a box of glass bottles.

But when ordinary people come to make sesame paste, they bring their own bottles, and over time, he has accumulated a lot of sesame sauce bottles here.

Seeing this, the boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives asked Xu Lan:

"If you want a few, you can use it, this thing was originally given for free, and I don't want money, and I don't like to occupy space here."

Just take it to help him clean up the bottom of the goods.

Seeing this, Xu Lan looked down at the bottles in the cardboard box, and roughly counted them in his heart, there must be more than a hundred bottles in it.

If only she only needed three or two, but if she moved out of all of them, what if she didn't give money to others.

Xu Lan looked at the boss of the supply and marketing cooperative, and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone:

"Big brother, I want all of these, you look at the price, I can't take your things for nothing."

All of them?

The boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives looked at Xu Lan coldly, thinking to himself that with so many glass bottles, how many cans do you have to make?

The boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives organized the language, and after a pause, asked:

"How many cans do you want to make so many glass bottles?"

More than 100 of them, even if they are stored for a long time, they can't do so much, even if they are eaten every day, don't they have to eat until the New Year?

Seeing the shocked look of the boss of the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Lan explained to him, saying that he planned to take the finished canned food out to sell.

When the boss of the supply and marketing cooperatives heard this, he immediately became interested, and looked at Xu Lan and said to her with great interest:

"Then when you're ready, I'll see how it goes, it just so happens that my cans here are out of stock, and I don't know when they will arrive."

"If you make it delicious, then I'll buy it from you, what do you think?"

Xu Lan was full of promises when she heard this, there was such a good opportunity, of course she had to seize it.

…

Back at home, Xu Lan first boiled a pot of boiling water, counted ten glass bottles bought from the supply and marketing cooperative, put them in, and boiled them for a while to disinfect them.

Because it was the first time she did it, she didn't dare to do too much, and if it didn't taste good, wouldn't it be completely ruined.

She doesn't do this kind of thing like wasting ingredients!

Xu Lan took the boiled and sterilized bottle out of the pot and set it aside for later use, and then began to process the fruit.

She peeled the peaches, cut them in half with a knife, removed the pits, cut them into the right size, and put them in a glass bottle.

Then he took out the lychees he picked in the space today from the basket on the side.

Xu Lan peeled it open and planned to taste it, and at the moment of peeling it off, the lychee aroma was full of the house, and the white flesh was sweet and delicious in the mouth, and the mood was much happier after eating.

Xu Mu thought, if the lychee thing is not put away, it is better to make a few more canned lychees.

She divided half of the remaining lychees and kept them for Lu Nanzhou to come back so that they could taste them, after all, it was not the season to eat lychees.

The remaining half was made into canned fruit, which could be stored for a longer period of time.

Xu Lan cut a little bit of the fruit she picked from the space, basically every kind of can.

After everything was done, Xu Lan poured an appropriate amount of water into the can, added rock sugar and white sugar, put the lid on the glass bottle without screwing, and then put it in the pot to steam.

After doing all this, as soon as Xu Lan took off his apron, the doorbell rang.

When Xu Yan heard this, he hurriedly ran over to open the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Lu Mu standing at the door with an unhappy face, obviously in a bad mood.

And Father Lu, who was behind him, stood aside with a sneering face.

How did I go to see Li Cuiqing, and after I came back, I became like this?

Xu Lan was puzzled, after the door opened, Lu's mother saw that it was Xu Lan who opened the door, and she didn't want to bring her bad mood to the house and to the child.

But Li Cuiqing's disgusting faces made her really unbearable.

She squeezed a smile at Xu Mu that was more ugly than crying, and then probably realized that she was too reluctant and became expressionless.

When she arrived in the living room, Lu's mother couldn't help yelling at Lu's father:

"I don't care, I'll go back to my hometown tomorrow!"

"I went to the clinic all because she was my mother-in-law, and I went to see her out of love, not to run there to get angry!"
