Savage Fortune Little Landlord

Chapter 202

With the addition of grass leaves, the candy is much more delicious, but compared to the brown sugar that Xia Weiwei had eaten before, this long-stem grass candy is indeed softer.

But I found that time was passing by quietly, and the exhaustion could not stop the attack.

After another batch of grass juice was boiled, Xia Weiwei went to the crowd in charge of squeezing the juice: "Let's go here first."

"It's still early." A-Dong, who was replaced, said without thinking too much.

The more dry the job, the smoother it is. Everyone wants to work hard, but the dozens of people in Qingbu have collected the long-stemmed grass for more than a month, and they can't finish it in one go.

"When the batch of sugar is cooked, the sun will probably be setting. I didn't sleep all night last night. Everyone is very tired. It's better not to rush work today."

After boiling the sugar several times, A-Dong knew exactly how long a pot of sugar would take to cook.

Glancing at the crowd nearby, and seeing everyone's tiredness on their brows, they immediately changed their minds: "I can't cook any more today, just leave it to cook tomorrow."

"I don't know if the grass juice will go bad if left like this." Xia Weiwei frowned: "I think it's better not to be careless. Peel the grass stamens today, and tomorrow morning there will be more smashed, just squeezed."

Adong: "..."

This is really a big problem.

"Save half a bucket and try it."

Xia Weiwei also really wanted to know if the grass juice would go bad if left like this for one night. Of course, A-Dong's suggestion was only a nod, and with A-Dong's arrangement here, she didn't have to waste time here. When A-Dong started yelling , turn directly back to the side of the cauldron.

At this time, Lan Yu's work of boiling and washing the pot water has been taken over by Aoki Stone, and after adding and cooking, the sweetness of the sugar water in the cauldron is getting higher and higher.

In order to prevent the pot of sugar from being crumbled, she asked to add water as long as the water was slightly reduced.

"Grandfather Qingmu, don't add water anymore, Uncle Shishi, let's make a big fire first."

After explaining to Aoki, Shitou, Xia Weiwei began to supervise back and forth again, when the last ray of the sun dissipated, Aoki scooped up the last spoonful of syrup.

This amber syrup has a particularly high transparency. After cooling, its hardness and sweetness are relatively improved. The taste in the mouth is similar to that of the hard candy I have eaten before. Unfortunately, it is too laborious to cook it.

"Let everyone drink quickly."

The last batch of pot-washing water was shared by everyone, and in order to increase everyone's enthusiasm, Xia Weiwei asked Lan Yu and others to distribute sugar bumps to all the people.

After tasting the sugar, everyone was more enthusiastic about cooking sugar. On the way back, Pingshan directly said the request of the clan: "Wei Wei, everyone thinks it will be faster to cook sugar together."

"With lotus roots, it doesn't matter whether you keep the grass stems or not. Or, let everyone participate together tomorrow?" Lan Yu followed suit.

Xia Weiwei felt that it would be good to collect a few more grass stalks, which made the soldiers split into two groups. Obviously, compared to eating two more bites, everyone felt that cooking syrup was more interesting.

Looking at Aoki, Xia Wei smiled and said: "Since everyone said so, let's do it."

The spirit relaxed, and the feeling of fatigue surged. When she returned to the tent, she didn't even want to eat.

"Grandma Qingmei, why don't we just eat some lotus roots today?"

Seeing the child's expression, Qingmei felt distressed: "Go and lie down first, and I'll get you lotus root later."

Being able to do things, Xia Weiwei never shirks, knowing that Qingmei will only be more tired than herself, she forced a smile on her face: "It's not a few steps."

"You child!" Qingmei felt distressed and helpless.

Everyone was very tired, no one was bothering themselves too much this meal, and they hurriedly transported fodder after simply eating.

When the tent door closed with a creak, Xia Weiwei rushed to the kang bed in three steps at a time, and it took less than five seconds from lying down to losing consciousness.

"Tsk~"

In the darkness, the sound of tusks was particularly abrupt.

I don't know what Wen Ya was thinking, but the next morning, he didn't give Xia Weiwei a chance to sleep for a while, and when he got up, he pushed that nasty foot on Xia Weiwei's shoulder.

During this period of time, Qingmei has been yelling awake, when a familiar push came from her shoulder, Xia Weiwei naturally thought it was Qingmei.

"Grandma Qingmei, I'm awake~"

Can a person who is awake still close his eyes tightly?

The shoulders were pushed twice more.

Forced to open his eyes, the tent was still dark.

"?"

"cook rice"

"..."

Before Xia Weiwei could react, Wen Bapi, who called out before dawn, had already opened the door.

The open door provided a chance for the cold wind, and Xia Wei, who hadn't crawled out of the bed, shrank her neck slightly, secretly trying to pretend that she hadn't woken up.

"hurry up."

Wen Ya's cold voice came from outside.

Xia gritted his teeth slightly.

No matter how good Wen Ya's spirit was, it was impossible for her to get up in the middle of the night, and after a long time of grinding, Xia Weiwei managed to move herself out of the warm bed.

"Hiss~" It's so cold.

Shocked by the cold wind, she lost all drowsiness. At this moment, Xia Weiwei only had one thought.

"You help hold the grass."

For a long time, Wen Ya would take the initiative whenever he needed to do something, Xia Weiwei didn't care about her when he said nothing, and in the dark, first lit the fire, then added water, ran back and forth twice to get two pots of meat strip.

The strips of meat that have been drying for seven or eight days have dried out completely. It is not easy to boil them soft, but it is very easy to cook them. After putting the strips of meat in a pot under cold water, she picks out the older lotus roots.

This kind of lotus root has thick fibers and a lot of starch. It tastes better if it is boiled, but it must be tender and fresh when eaten raw, otherwise it will easily clog your teeth.

When there are no seasonings and dishes to choose from, cooking is really easy. After picking out the lotus root, Xia Weiwei habitually picks up the half-woven straw clothes.

When she couldn't touch the grass bumps with her backhand, she looked at the haystack not far away in the faint morning light.

"?"

What about people?

Opening her mouth, Xia Weiwei wanted to shout, but the moment her voice rushed out of her throat, she was restrained.

Everyone has been very tired these two days, let them sleep more if they can!

Wen Ya was nowhere to be seen, Xia Weiwei could only go to hold the grass by herself, and found it inconvenient after running twice, so she just used the scooter, and suddenly realized that everyone might not be able to get up so early today, so she burned the fire pits of each family one by one rise.

Influenced by Aoki, each family not only prepared enough water, but also prepared enough lotus roots. When the water boiled and no one got up, she boiled the lotus roots one by one.

With a family of more than 30, she can't cut it, and the whole lotus root does not affect eating.

"Squeak~"

When the door panel rang not far away, Xia Weiwei was already ready to anneal.

"what!"

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the whole row of fires, and Grandpa Ke exclaimed.

He has always been the first to start.

"how?"

He was even more surprised after seeing who the back figure belonged to.

Children are all sleepy, and Xia Weiwei is no exception.

It was unnerving to see her all of a sudden, with all the tent doors shut.

After pedaling, Grandpa Kezi ran towards him quickly: "What's going on?"

"Wen Ya called." Xia Weiwei was actually very speechless.

"Uh!"

Grandpa Kezi obviously didn't expect such an answer.
