Being scolded as a poor widow, I relied on supernatural powers to counterattack in ancient times

Chapter 49
It just so happens that there is still some left at home, and it is turned into lime water for use. Adding lime water to sugar juice can help solidify and form.

"This concentration is almost the same. Adding an appropriate amount of lime water can help it coagulate, and then it is finished with a mold."

The two watched the mother-in-law demonstrate that when the lime water was added, in the blink of an eye, the juice in the pot began to turn red and thick and cool.

"Well annealed,"

Baiyunxi dug the brown sugar juice into the grinding tool with a spoon, smoothed it out, and let Mrs. Li take it out to dry in the sun.

He looked up at the sun above his head, and boiled another pot without delaying cooking.

"Boil the beets in this pot to make sugar water, and then cook for the second child."

Du Shi nodded, the sweet smell from the first pot greatly boosted their confidence,
"Mother, you rest by the side, I'll fix it, what's wrong, mother will guide me."

Stirring is a physical effort. The first pot of Baiyunxi was used as a demonstration, and the tired forehead was sweating.

Seeing Li's sister-in-law working hand in hand, both of them are used to doing farm work. After a while, they mastered the essentials, and they are very agile.

Bai Yunxi flicked her wrist with pantothenic acid, the ancients really had no hands-on ability, and she only had theoretical knowledge, so she was not as good as the two daughters-in-law.

When the second pot of beet juice was collected, Du Shi used a large pot to cook, with pancakes made in the morning, and a sauerkraut soup.

"You can add red dates, goji berries and other nourishing things when boiling sugar to set the shape, which is good for women's health. Especially on those special days, making a bowl of brown sugar water will make your stomach feel much more comfortable."

Sucrose can supplement calories and have the effect of warming the palace.

After working hard all morning, they had a simple meal and each drank a bowl of sweet water. They were all satisfied.

"Mr. Li, go and deliver food to the second child, and bring a can of sugar water to them by the way."

"Hey~,"

Bai Yunxi returned to her room, searched through the left and right cabinets, and finally found a bag of red dates.

Wash and cut into shreds, and dispose of the jujube core. When the third pot comes out, sprinkle it in and solidify with the syrup. This pot is reserved for the family to drink, and it should be used to replenish the body that has been depleted for a while.

When Li Shi came back, the two of them had already boiled the beet juice, and Li Shi took over to collect the juice.

After they finished cooking, it was already sunset. There were four pots and four moulds. Bai Yunxi was very satisfied with the results of their day.

With the extra sucrose paste, Bai Yunxi kneaded it into several lollipops of different shapes, and left it for Yaya to sweeten her mouth.

"Come on, take it out to dry when the sun comes out every day, and take it back down the mountain. When the sun is good, you can take it off the mold in two or three days."

"Mother, don't worry, I'll be in charge of drying it, so I'll take care of it."

Looking at several boxes of reddish-brown sucrose, Du Shi was overjoyed,

"Mom, do you think we can grow this kind of beetroot ourselves?"

'If you can grow it yourself, the sucrose boiled every year alone is enough to exchange for grain. '

Listening to Mrs. Du's inquiry, Baiyunxi was taken aback. Sugar beet is a biennial herb, and it is not too harsh on the growing environment. It is not impossible to plant it on a few mu of land.

"It is possible, but not right now. It takes two years from planting to harvesting beets. The current situation of our family does not allow it. We must first solve the food problem."

Listening to her mother-in-law's explanation, Mrs. Du nodded, "Mother is right, it's because my daughter-in-law didn't think carefully."

Bai Yunxi was amazed at Du Shi's sensitivity, he was able to draw inferences from one instance, which was better than the heads of those bear boys.
