My whole family is dancing

Chapter 449

"Fu'er, Uncle said that Shiliu is going to send off the plague god?"

Zhang Xianyu came there early in the morning, "Didn't you send the God of Plague this year? You also said that there will be a big show, and the pier will be given to the God of Plague."

Bai Fuer laughed and said, "I didn't send the Plague God this year, but the Kitchen God."

"Send the Kitchen God what to do?"

Zhang Xianyu said that although she has been married to Baijia for many years, she still has not clearly distinguished the various gods and their responsibilities.

"Send the Kitchen God to heaven, so much sugar was made on the stove that day just to stick to the Kitchen God's mouth, and let him go up and stop talking nonsense."

Bai Fuer felt that these customs were very interesting, "In addition to sending off the Kitchen God, we also picked up the God of Wealth, and in the end it must be sending off the Plague God.

"On the [-]th, we will give away the God of Plague. There are Spring Plague, Summer Plague, Autumn Plague, and Winter Plague. There is also a Great Plague God who is in charge. At that time, a few paper figurines will be made, and everyone will carry them around the village to parade the public. Then put them on big paper boats, light them up and let them float away with the paper boats."

"Grandpa said that last year's sugarcane harvest was not so smooth, so we should send it to the God of Plague to get rid of the bad luck. There is also a chance that the village will send it away without much fanfare, so we will go together."

"At that time, there will be another dispatch to the village, and the pier will definitely be vacated."

Although Zhang Xianyu still didn't understand why there were so many plague gods alone, he still said that he would make arrangements as soon as possible.

"Tell me the orange you want. I'll go to the sugar factory first."

As soon as Zhang Xianyu walked away, Baifuer tossed oranges on the back. This year was the same as in previous years, that is, the people in the workshop took a few days off on the [-]th and the first day of the new year, and the rest of the time was all rushing to work. Sugarcane boats, but the sugarcane harvested earlier is still a lot, so there is no need to worry about not having enough sugarcane.

After General An’s sugar was sent away, the workshop was a little calmer, and Baichangfu arranged to make white sugar again. He is now considered the master of the workshop, and he has also improved on the basis of Baifuer, and the effect is better than that of Baifuer. better.

The first batch of white sugar came out, although it wasn't much, but it was enough to surprise people, and Momofuer couldn't wait to put on fruit candy immediately, and the first one was orange jelly candy.

Leading Caiyun to peel all the oranges, "Caiyun, next you mash all these oranges into mud."

Caiyun was full of energy and began to work with a smile on her face, while Baifuer began to prepare sugar, maltose, and starch, ignited the small red clay stove, and cleaned out the small iron pot she used to make sugar.

"Girl, is this okay?"

After reading it, Baifuer took out the clean gauze prepared earlier in the morning, "Strain the juice out."

The master and servant worked together for a while and finally prepared all the materials, and then it was time for Baifuer to show her skills.

Put maltose, white sugar, oil and filtered oranges in the pot and stir slowly, and then ordered: "Wipe that wooden plate again, brush a little oil in it."

Cooking sugar requires patience, and there is no need to rush it. A pot of orange juice syrup has been boiled for half an hour before it is completely concentrated and becomes a ball. Put it into a wooden plate and flatten it, and wait for it to cool.

Taking advantage of this time, Baifuer made another pot, but this time the rock sugar was used, and the mold was very powerful. She specially asked a carpenter to make it. The wooden board has three shapes: circles, stars and petals. They are also cleaned and brushed Oil it, put thin bamboo sticks on it, and pour the boiled sugar juice on it.

At this time, the soft candy is also available, cut into small pieces, sprinkle a thin layer of cooked rice flour on top, and you're done.

The entrance has a strong orange flavor, sweet and soft, and the two tasted a piece each, and they were both very satisfied.

"Girl, this is too delicious, I've never eaten it before."

Baifuer smiled, "It's fine if you haven't eaten it, your girl has been waiting for this candy for so many years."

Heck, the orange flavor is all there, are the other flavors far behind?
Waiting for the orange-flavored lollipop to be ready, she took the plate and went to find her grandma, "Grandpa and grandma, come and taste the new candy, you can bite it."

"Auntie, we are all here~"

Alas, all the boys and girls in the yard, Bai Fuer felt a headache, "Line up, two pieces of jellybeans for each person, and one lollipop for each person."

The orange jelly candy was quickly distributed, and the children jumped up excitedly after tasting it, saying that it was delicious.

Bailihui and Li Po also tasted it, and they both agreed.

"Is this going to be sold?"

"Ah."

It must be sold, but there are two very important questions, how to extend the shelf life and how to pack?

It's really a problem solved one after another.

Li Po saw her embarrassed and thought she was worried that she would not be able to sell it, "If it's really not possible, send it to your aunt's shop to try it out, it's so delicious, it's sure to sell well."

Bai Fuer laughed, "I'm either worried that I won't be able to sell it, or I just don't know what to pack it with. I can't hold it in kraft paper, right?"

So sad.

Li Po suggested, "Isn't there a bamboo weaving workshop in the village now? Ask them to weave some exquisite small baskets, wrap them with cloth, and then wrap sugar in kraft paper, and put them in bamboo baskets. And convenient."

"If you are afraid that if you sell it far away, you won't sell it so far away. Now that your family has a house and a shop in Fucheng, you can send it to Fucheng to sell."

The bamboo weaving workshop was opened by the old Zhangs. When they first came here, the land allotted to them was full of bamboo. Later, they simply opened the bamboo weaving workshop. The old Zhangs are skillful. Besides bamboo weaving, they can also weave straw and hemp.

Baifuer's eyes lit up, "Grandma, why do you think you are so smart? I just wanted to sell it to other places, and I was afraid that it would break down on the way. I forgot that if I really sold it to other places, I would Not that many oranges."

Fixed thinking is scary.

Li Po happily looked at the lollipop on the plate, "Bring a flower to grandma, so that grandma will be young again."

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, every household in the village participated in sending off the God of Plague. In the evening, the public road was held, and firecrackers were fired. The men carried a few paper figurines of the God of Plague and walked around the village. Fang stopped at the pier.

The flags were displayed by the river, and the three sacrifices were prepared. Bai Lihui, who had not gone out to dance Duangong, put on his robes again. Extremely exaggerated, sometimes very solemn.

"Send. Plague. God."

The men carried the five gods of plague into the paper boat, sprinkled paper money in the middle, and when they were ready to lift the paper boat, the men who jumped Duangong jumped hard.

The paper boat was launched into the water, the knife in Bailihui's hand crossed the paper talisman, a sip of spirits was sprayed on the paper talisman and it was instantly ignited, the wrist was flipped and the paper talisman flew down the paper boat, and the paper figurine in the paper boat instantly Burning up, the paper boat slowly drifted away along the water
"Oh~~~ The God of Plague has been sent away~"
