Chapter 27 Fruit Skewers

It doesn't take much to make a few sugar paintings. Mo Qianrui boiled a lot of sweet potato syrup yesterday, only used a small part, and put the rest in jars.Thinking about Liniang being implicated by him, if Liniang hadn't stepped forward, the matter might not have calmed down right now.

"That's no problem, I'll just do it. Does Meiniang want it?" Mo Qianrui didn't care much about commercial secrets. After all, the difficulty of this sugar painting lies in the sweet potato syrup itself. As for painting... With her skill, No fear of being stolen.

"This kitchen is on fire, I'd better wait for you in the courtyard."

Mo Qianrui smiled, and didn't really let Meiniang wait in the yard, but led her to her room to rest for a while, after all, it was under the sun outside.Then Mo Qianrui went to the kitchen to make a pot of sweet tea with sweet potato syrup, and sent it to Meiniang.Even if this Mei Niang is not as delicious as Liniang, tea should still be prepared for hospitality.

Then he went back to the kitchen, took out the jar of sweet potato syrup, and started sugar painting.

After thinking about it, she felt that just a few sugar paintings could not express her gratitude, so Mo Qianrui went into the portable space to pick a bunch of grapes, and she wanted to make an assorted fruit skewers.

The so-called assorted fruit skewers are actually the evolved version of candied haws. The main raw material of candied haws is hawthorn, while the evolved version is a variety of colorful fruits.Usually, grapes, cherries, fresh oranges, dragon fruits, etc. are used.After being cut into appropriate sizes, string them into a string, and then wrap them in syrup. Because the colors are different, they will look extraordinarily conspicuous, and are deeply loved by some young girls or children.

It's a pity that there are too few ingredients on hand, Mo Qianrui can only make do with grapes to make a fruit skewer, which can't be called assorted.

However, even so, the finished product is quite eye-catching.The main reason is that the grapes in the courtyard are all crystal clear, covered with a thin layer of syrup, with purple in the yellow, presumably Liniang will like it very much.It's a pity that she only has sweet potato syrup. If there is rock sugar, it must be more beautiful.

After making three strings of sugar paintings, and two strings of fruit strings, Mo Qianrui carefully separated them and held them in his hands to avoid sticking together.

When Meiniang came out and saw it, she was shocked.Yesterday, Liniang's movements were too fast, when she returned home, the five strings of sugar paintings had already entered Liniang's stomach, and she only saw the five bamboo sticks.Therefore, today Liniang is making a fuss about eating sugar paintings, but she still disdains them, but it's just caramel, is that the case?If Liniang hadn't been injured, she would not have been willing to make this trip.

However, when she saw it with her own eyes, she couldn't help swallowing. The Li family was rich, but there was never such exquisite food in the countryside.

Suppressing her saliva, she took the string of sugar in Mo Qianrui's hand, Meiniang thanked her and left, but she didn't mention the money or not, presumably it was Liniang who was busy making trouble and didn't mention it.Of course, Mo Qianrui wouldn't mention it either, this was the gift she wanted to thank.In fact, she was planning to use the few ingredients she had on hand to make a few more delicious dishes to please Liniang.

Not for anything else, just to let Liniang find a few cousins ​​to help her family do some work later.

After sending Meiniang away, Mo Qianrui continued to worry about Aniang's health.According to the barefoot doctor, A Niang should be malnourished and overworked, which is why she fainted so easily. Maybe A Niang also has a problem similar to mild anemia.Such a disease, in the previous life, was just a matter of hanging a bottle of water.

Wait, hanging water?
Mo Qianrui didn't know anything about medicine, but he only vaguely remembered that people with anemia seemed to be suffering from glucose and normal saline?
It is absolutely impossible for Mo Qianrui to make intravenous medicine. However, she is a chef, so it will be no problem to prepare glucose water and normal saline, right?Even if it's not pure soup, at least the meals should be based on this.

Considering that Auntie is weak and has no other ingredients at home, Mo Qianrui decided to make fruit porridge.First wash the millet and boil it in a pot, and add a few handfuls of mung beans that have been soaked in advance.It's a pity that the red beans and black beans at home have never been soaked, so I can only give up for now.I took another sweet potato and cut it into pieces, and added it until the rice porridge was thick, then added the peeled and seeded grapes.

Of course, the real fruit porridge is definitely many times more complicated than this simplified version, but now we can only make do with it.

He took out the pickled vegetables at home, filled two dishes, and sent them to A Niang first.Thinking that Erya didn't have breakfast today, Mo Qianrui buried a big sweet potato under the stove before cooking the porridge, and the sweet potato was naturally cooked by now, so he added a bowl of thinner porridge for Erya to eat.

It was almost two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and Mo Qianrui cooked some mung bean soup for Dad with the few mung beans left.Now the only one in the family who can work in the field is Dad. With Dad's temperament, I am afraid that he will work hard in the future, so Mo Qianrui is very worried about Dad's health.But she also knew that persuasion was useless at the moment, it would be more practical to watch Dad drink up the mung bean soup.

A busy day passed quickly, and at night, Mo Qianrui entered the portable space, and then lay on his back on the lawn by the creek.

I thought Tang Yanxiu would come in soon, but Mo Qianrui fell asleep on the lawn, and when he woke up, he still didn't see Tang Yanxiu.Because the space is always clear and clear, Mo Qianrui went outside to check the sky, reckoning that it was probably early in the morning.Unable to figure out why Tang Yanxiu didn't enter the space, Mo Qianrui suddenly remembered that Tang Yanxiu seemed to have told her last time that if she didn't have time to come in, she would leave a note on the table in the courtyard, so she returned to the space again.

In the small courtyard of the space, Mo Qianrui found a piece of paper on the stone table. On the top sheet were written a few crooked characters.

'My grandfather had an accident, don't read it. '

Mo Qianrui's heart skipped a beat. She knew very well that Tang Yanxiu was different from her. She cared about too many people, and she was reluctant to let go of every family member.But in Tang Yanxiu's mind, only Mo Qianrui and his grandfather were truly regarded as his family.

In his previous life, before Tang Yanxiu could remember anything, his parents passed away, and it was his grandfather who single-handedly brought him up.Tang Yanxiu didn't have the slightest affection for her parents, but she had extremely deep affection for her grandfather.Unfortunately, his grandfather passed away due to illness when he was seven years old, and he was initially brought up by his uncle.However, he was sent to an orphanage after only a few months of living with his uncle and aunt.

Although Tang Yanxiu only wanted to talk about the time when he lived with his grandfather when he mentioned his past, Mo Qianrui could imagine what kind of person his uncle and aunt were.

Spending the money of the brother-in-law, but sending the only flesh and blood left by the brother-in-law to the orphanage, it can be seen how selfish a person is.

Maybe in the previous life, she could whitewash the peace with the excuse of poor family background, so what about this life?According to what Tang Yanxiu said, his family's family background was extremely good in this life, but Mo Qianrui remembered how Tang Yanxiu squatted by the stream and gnawed carrots fiercely when he first came here...

I hope nothing happens to his grandfather, otherwise Tang Yanxiu's situation will be even worse.

For several nights in a row, Tang Yanxiu did not appear in the space, but occasionally there would be messages written by him on the stone table in the yard.Mo Qianrui went into the space every night, cleaned up the fields, and looked for seeds around. Under her busy schedule, the space experience increased a lot, from level two to level three.

At the beginning, ten experience points were required to upgrade from level one to level two, and one hundred experience points were required to be upgraded from level two to level three, including the original ten points of course.Now that it has been promoted to level three, Mo Qianrui saw sadly and unexpectedly that the experience points required for leveling up have become a thousand points.

Sure enough, it gets harder as you go to the back. I really don't know how terrifying the amount of experience required to level up will be when you reach dozens of levels.

Forget it, let's talk about the future.

Remembering how many crops were unlocked in the store after the upgrade, Mo Qianrui quickly focused on this.The first level is all grain crop seeds such as wheat and sorghum, the second level has more seeds such as sweet potato, potato, and taro, and the third level has more seeds, covering almost all common vegetables.

It is midsummer now, and these vegetables are nothing. If it comes to the twelfth lunar month of winter, even the most common cabbage today will definitely be sold at a high price.After all, there are no four seasons in this space, and there is no concept of off-season vegetables in this era.

only……

Sighing deeply, Mo Qianrui deeply felt that it was terrible to have no money. In her previous life, she didn't pay much attention to money, but in this life, she really realized that a penny can stump a hero.

No, she must hurry up and make money.It started after the wheat harvest was over, and now the most important thing is to help Dad harvest all the wheat in the field.

It has been several days since the wheat harvest started. Most of the families in the village have already harvested the wheat in the field, and half of them have even dried the wheat. Very few, such as Liniang's second uncle's house, have already started to shell the wheat. up.

And like the Mo family, they haven't even harvested the wheat in the field, and there are no more than ten families in the whole village. Among them, the Mo family can almost be regarded as the second to last.After all, although some families are strong and have less labor force, they also have less fields.The Mo family is the only one in the village that has a strong labor force but a lot of land.

As for the last one, it was none other than the Zhang family who wanted to abduct Mo Qianrui home last time.

In previous years, the Zhang family's widowed mother and son went to the field to harvest grain together, but this year I heard that before the wheat harvest, the Zhang family's aunt twisted her waist. It is fine to walk, but she can't bend over to work.So all the work fell on the Zhang family boy, but he didn't expect that the work was too heavy, and the Zhang family boy, who was originally not very good, suffered from heat stroke.This is actually nothing. The people in the village pay attention to helping each other. At worst, when the big guys are done, they will naturally help them. Unless it is unlucky to encounter heavy rain, generally speaking, there will be no loss.

Unexpectedly, the aunt of the Zhang family wanted to make trouble, but met Mo Qianrui who didn't follow the rules, and ended up stealing chickens and losing money.Now Li's mother's family has let go, and all the relatives of Lao Li's family are not allowed to help the Zhang family harvest wheat.

If you don't die, you won't die.
