After eating, Xia Qiyue began to think about making halva non-stop.

Make peanut stuffing first, when making halva filling, the temperature of the pot should not be too high, almost 90 degrees, pour the sugar and peanuts into it and fry it, stir until it is pressed into a ball, and it will be scattered when you poke it.

After the filling is successfully out of the pot, the sugar begins to boil.

White sugar, caramel and water, according to the ratio of memory, put into the pot to dissolve, and then pull the sugar, Xia Qiyue originally thought it was very simple.

In the past, when she watched her grandmother make it, she would stand aside and watch, and it was very simple for her grandmother to do it in one go.

But when it comes to me... Oh my God, that's hot, isn't it?

She grabbed her ears while she pulled the sugar while it was hot, and when she pulled it into a shiny and crunchy sugar, her hands were hot and red.

I almost cried, but I couldn't delay, so I quickly divided a piece and mixed it with the filling, and then used the other half as a skin, wrapped it in a thin layer, cut it into small pieces, and arranged the shape.

"Whew...", which lasted two hours, reproduced the halva in my memory at noon.

Since she was going to sell it, she made a lot of it, and five catties of peanuts were made into fillings, plus sugar, and the final product looked like more than ten catties.

A small piece, a pound of about fifty, because she is not weighing and cutting, so the size is slightly different, but the difference is not very big, a pound of 45 to 50 pieces.

The first time I made it, of course, I had to give it to the four guys who were watching with a blank eye, and then I tried it myself.

"It's halva! You all taste it! Xia Qiyue took a handful and handed it to his younger siblings and children, and then left one to send to his mouth, biting lightly, crispy and crispy, chewing a few times, the fragrance of peanuts blended with the sweetness of sugar, spreading in the mouth, the sweet feeling instantly made people want to stop.

The more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes, the sweeter it becomes, the lips and teeth are fragrant, and the crunchy icing in the mouth is even more satisfying.

Just look at the little appearance of the two little ones pursing their mouths and enjoying their eyes with their eyes closed.

"Mother, this halva is a good time..."Ke'er also took the time to praise her mother.

"Eldest sister, how did you come to make this kind of fairy candy? That's delicious, isn't it? Xia Jiujiu's whole person was fluttering, sucking the sweet sugar in his mouth, and he couldn't believe it.

If it weren't for her sister making it in front of her, she couldn't believe that her sister had made it.

"Shhhh It's a secret, don't tell anyone that the eldest sister will make halva! Let's sell this halva next! You'll have to stay at home and peel the peanuts, and you'll have to crush them like I did before!" The eldest sister is going out to sell candy! I have to do it when I come back! Xia Qiyue was also happy after making it successfully, arranging the work of his younger brothers and sisters one by one, and thinking about wrapping the sugar himself.

"September, Xinghe, the two of you cut all the oil paper at home into rectangles, like this big" Xia Qiyue gestured with his hand, "Just wrap a halva, the eldest sister will go to the cloth village, buy some good cloth and come back, and wrap the sugar!" ”

Something unique should take the high-end route, she has to pack it well, so that the price that can be sold is higher, she was busy for two hours to make ten pounds, and her hands were almost burned, which is a great price, so if you don't sell it at a good price, I'm sorry for such a big sacrifice.

"Eldest sister, this is so ugly wrapped in oiled paper, if you buy a wrapped cloth, why don't you just cut the cloth into small pieces and wrap the halva? I feel better that way! "Xia Jiu is a girl, her aesthetics are different from boys, Xia Xinghe has already listened to her eldest sister's words and is going to start cutting yellow oil paper, but Xia Jiu Jiu has made a suggestion.

"Really?" Xia Qiyue thought for a while, "Okay, don't cut paper first, peel peanuts first!" I'll talk about it when I get back! Xia Qiyue nodded and agreed with her sister's meaning, and then walked out.

As a person of later generations, she knows that if she takes the high-end route, packaging is also a big problem.

She now has a product, and it is unique, and others can't easily reproduce it, so the packaging has to be good-looking.

The cloth village is at the end of the market, the westernmost part of the main street, Xia Qiyue quickened his pace, and when he entered the cloth village, there were not many people buying cloth, and a few people were watching.

Xia Qiyue has always been dressed in men's clothes, and the female shopkeeper immediately greeted such a handsome and handsome brother when she saw such a handsome brother entering the store.

"This guest officer, do you want to buy cloth or make ready-to-wear clothes? The embroidery craftsmanship of our cloth village is first-class and good! I will be able to make it for you to fit and decent! ”

Xia Qiyue was stunned for a moment, then remembered that he was now dressed as a man, and immediately came back to his senses, raised his hands behind his back and looked at it, pretending to be a little embarrassed to ask the shopkeeper in a whisper

"Shopkeeper, do you have any good fabrics for the little girl's clothes? I want to be good! ”

The shopkeeper's self-pride has already understood, it turns out that Xiao Langjun has a favorite girl, and this is a gift for other girls.

If this person doesn't kill her, who will kill her?

Then take out the treasure of the store, and the shopkeeper's heart is finished, and he immediately says with a smile on his face, "Yes!" Of course! Wait, officer, I'll get it for you right away!" That satin is the best cloth in our shop, and I usually don't want to take it out! ”

After speaking, he ran back excitedly, Xia Qiyue touched his nose, and had to wait there, looking east and west.

However, looking at the fabrics on the surface, most of them were pure cotton, burlap, and muslin, and she looked at them, and these did not suit her requirements.

It didn't take long for the shopkeeper to come out with a piece of cloth carefully, and Xia Qiyue saw that there was still a cotton cloth outside, and he was very careful.

"Guest officer, look at our satin, this is transported from the capital, the treasure of our town store! If you send this cloth over, the little girl will definitely die for you! ”

Xia Qiyue looked over with the shopkeeper's hand, and saw that it was indeed satin, solid pink satin, very bright and beautiful.

"The shopkeeper, how much silver is this cloth?"

Xia Qiyue didn't want to listen to the shopkeeper's nonsense, so he hurriedly asked for the price, and if the price was right, he would buy it back quickly.

She's still in a hurry to pack halva.

The shopkeeper's eyes flashed, and he stretched out two fingers, "Two hundred silver!" ”

When Xia Qiyue heard it, it was not expensive, so he nodded, "Okay, wrap it up for me!" ”

Readily! However, the shopkeeper's words were not finished, only to hear her continue, "Two hundred silver and one foot!" A total of two taels of silver! ”

Xia Qiyue raised his head sharply and looked at the shopkeeper, "What did you say?" 200 Wen... A foot? ”

The shopkeeper thought that he was a little rich boy in front of him, but he didn't expect that he looked terrible when he heard the price, and he regretted taking out the treasure of the town store, so he spoke politely.

"That's right! Two hundred wen and one foot, son, do you need to wrap it up? ”
