Chapter 46: Oranges boiled in sugar water
"You let me go, the eldest lady promised to let me go!" Gan Li's face changed.
Xiao Song gritted his teeth and threw her to the ground: "The eldest lady is soft-hearted and lets you go, I won't!" ”
……
Fengchun Lou, picked a cook, Zeng Kui, the cousin of the shopkeeper, when he saw people, Xiao Jiuyue sighed, this bloodline is very strong!
The garlic nose of the Zeng family is really exactly the same.
"Miss Xiao, I, I must study hard!" Compared with Zeng Qing's eloquent words, Zeng Kui's mouth is not as stupid as a three-year-old child, and he didn't dare to look at her, and when he saw it, his face was red to the root of his ears.
"Come on." Xiao Jiuyue said encouragingly.
Because Zeng Kui is a man, no matter what time it is, Xiao Jiuyue is always surrounded by people.
Xiao Jiuyue taught very seriously, every dish, what ingredients are needed, how to master the heat, and even the shape of the dish, she has pursued it to the extreme.
Zeng Kui is serious, although his mouth is stupid, but when he does it, his hands are dexterous.
"No wonder, Shopkeeper Zeng asked you to learn to cook." Xiao Jiuyue looked at Zeng Kui's taste of making drunkard peanuts without any bad taste, and the heat was just right, and immediately praised it.
Zeng Kui lowered his head, and was praised by Xiao Jiuyue like this, and his face was even more red like a boiled shrimp!
This, blushing again?
Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyebrows, and didn't say much, but began to tell him what to do with braised pig's trotters and spicy pig ears.
The time of the day is very short, and the taste that Zeng Kui makes is always not as good as Xiao Jiuyue's.
"Drunkard peanuts can." Zeng Qing ate the dishes made by Zeng Kui, and then tasted the braised pig's trotters and spicy pig ears he made, Zeng Qing patted Zeng Kui's shoulder and said, "Ah Kui, learn from Miss Xiao!" ”
"Big brother, don't worry." Zeng Kui had a straight face, extra serious!
"Miss, it's still the lady who sold oranges that day." Lianxin accompanied Xiao Jiuyue around the neighborhood, and happened to meet Xiang Sanniang, who was selling oranges and going home.
"Miss is well." Xiang Sanniang saw Xiao Jiuyue, as if she had seen the God of Wealth, and enthusiastically handed over a big and yellow orange: "Miss, do you want to eat oranges?" ”
"I've bought them all." Xiao Jiuyue spoke, there are many people in the family, and the thirty catties of oranges last time, after such a point, it is not enough to eat.
"Miss, this, there are still more than ten catties here." Xiang Sanniang hesitated.
"You can say that my young lady wants it all." Lianxin spoke directly.
Xiang Sanniang was suddenly happy, looking at Xiao Jiuyue's eyes, it was more like looking at the God of Wealth, her eyes narrowed, and she weighed the orange and said: "Sixteen catties, six cents a catty, a total of ...... Ninety-six texts. ”
Xiang Sanniang said: "Miss, we are all from the same village, give you a little less, even if you are ninety-five!" ”
Lianxin listened to Xiang Sanniang's words, and while counting the copper coins, she said, "Only one penny less?" ”
"Miss, all year round, we croppers, in addition to pointing to the crops, we point to this orange for money." Xiang Sanniang looked embarrassed: "The main thing is that the rain is good this year and the orange harvest is abundant, otherwise, it is okay to collect less Wuwen!" ”
"Orange harvest, isn't it good?" Lianxin counted the money and handed it over, as if he was puzzled.
"There are too many oranges to be worthless, and they can't be sold." Xiang Sanniang sighed, Xiao Jiuyue bought her oranges twice in a row, and it was not as terrifying as rumored, and talking to Sanniang was more casual.
"Fu'an Village, a lot of oranges?" Xiao Jiuyue suddenly spoke.
Xiang Sanniang nodded and said, "Many, it's over there in the Silver Horn Nest, and the mountains are full of oranges." ”
"There are a lot of oranges that can't be sold?" Xiao Jiuyue thought of canned oranges, not to mention that they tasted good and were easy to preserve.
"Yes, a lot of oranges are rotting on the branches." Xiang Sanniang was shocked and speechless, immediately covered her mouth, and ran away with the burden.
"Miss, this rotten orange on the branch still sells us for ninety-five dollars!" Lianxin looked excitedly at the back of Sanniang leaving.
"Lotus heart, this is someone's orange." Xiao Jiuyue chuckled, even if people can't sell it and rot on the branches, it is also people's freedom.
"Ugh." Lianxin sighed.
When Xiao Jiuyue returned home, she didn't divide the oranges, but let Lianxin and Geng Pozi start peeling oranges.
"Miss, so many oranges, peeled them all?" Lianxin looked at the sixteen catties of oranges and asked.
"Yes." Xiao Jiuyue nodded, and said: "Let Luo Kui come too, after these oranges are peeled, the white fascia of the skin must be torn clean!" ”
Xiao Jiuyue peeled off an orange, carefully pulled the fascia of each orange, and said, "You must pull it cleanly, otherwise, it will be bitter." ”
"Okay." Lianxin responded, and after calling Luo Kui, she began to pick up the oranges carefully.
"Orange peel is reserved for a dish." Xiao Jiuyue thought of pickled orange peel, which was fragrant, refreshing and greasy, and the taste was good.
There are many people and great power, Xiao Jiuyue once again saw that Mrs. Geng and a few ladies in the kitchen worked neatly to clean up the oranges, Xiao Jiuyue said: "Mother Geng, boil a pot of water and put rock sugar." ”
"Wash a few more small sealed jars." Xiao Jiuyue opened her mouth, and when the rock sugar water was boiled, Xiao Jiuyue poured the peeled oranges into it.
"Oh, Miss, is it wrong!" Geng Pozi saw that the oranges were poured in, and hurriedly spoke.
Xiao Jiuyue replied with a smile: "Mother Geng, you just have to boil, you have to boil!" ”
"Tangerine, boiled sugar water?" Geng Pozi imagined the taste in her mind, but she couldn't think of it, Geng Pozi looked at the pot of oranges, and stopped talking.
"Miss, are these jars okay?" The man in the kitchen picked up a few jars.
Xiao Jiuyue glanced at it and said, "Just hold those oranges." ”
Mrs. Geng didn't dare to speak anymore.
This, this can be eaten?
Xiao Jiuyue didn't explain, the boiled oranges were put into a washed jar, and finally sealed, and Xiao Jiuyue began to process those orange peels again!
"What is this?" Old Madam Xiao looked at a new dish on the table, the yellow and clear color made Old Madam Xiao strange.
"Grandmother, taste, this is made by her granddaughter." Xiao Jiuyue put a little bit into Old Madam Xiao's bowl and said, "Grandmother, you can guess what it is." ”
Old Madam Xiao sniffed it and asked uncertainly, "This is orange peel?" ”
"Grandmother is amazing!" Xiao Jiuyue praised: "This is a cold orange peel, refreshing and appetizing." ”
Under Xiao Jiuyue's praise, Mrs. Xiao tasted it with the mentality of giving it a try, but she didn't expect that this orange peel, which no one wants, could become a dish.
"Not bad." Old Madam Xiao praised and said, "Yue'er's cooking skills are really good. ”
"Ming'er, give my grandmother a taste of orange gummies." Xiao Jiuyue planned to make the remaining orange peel into orange gummies, and also gave Xiao Jiayuan and them a snack to eat.
