Chapter 239 Loquat Cream

It has long been recorded in medical books that Xianren jelly, also known as jelly jelly, has beautiful stems and leaves, and has a fragrance like Huotan. It is eaten with juice and rice noodles to relieve hunger.

Bean jelly is a no-cost business, and there are many bean jelly grasses on the mountain behind Chenlian Brigade, and Tang Bao led them to cut a lot and dry them in the sun.

Now the sun is strong in June, and it can be half-dried in a day, and can be made into jelly by adding water and decoction.

Li Shang was not optimistic about Tang Bao's plan to turn the grass into something delicious, but when she was done, he saw the black jelly in the bowl, which was tough and soft, put some sugar water, and tasted it himself. Immediately stunned: "So this grass is not only a medicinal material, but also can be eaten like this?"

So far, in Li Shang's heart, she has decided that everything Tang Bao does is right, and that she has the ability to turn decay into magic.

Yang Yi and the others are also very excited, because this is really a no-cost business, and the taste is so good, they can't wait to cut all the jelly grass on the mountain.

What's more, there are many mints added in the water, and they sell them cheaply today, only five cents a bowl, but they have sold more than 300 bowls so far, and they have earned [-] yuan.

Not only because they sell it cheaply, but the jelly is also delicious to eat, and they also wrote the source of the jelly, and also wrote about the benefits of eating jelly, such as clearing heat and dampness, preventing heat stroke, and quenching thirst.

Yang Yi served jelly to an aunt in her 50s, and asked, "Auntie, do you want to add mint juice?"

The aunt quickly nodded and muttered in a low voice: "I want some, it would be even better if I could add sugar water!"

Yang Yi poured a bowl of jelly into the empty bowl she brought, and asked with a smile, "It costs [-] cents to add sugar water, do you want to add it, auntie?"

When the aunt heard that the sugar water is not free, and she needs to pay more, she quickly shook her head: "No, no, I'd better go and add some at home!"

Tang Bao saw that Shaojin and Yang Zheng were happily collecting money and change with their lunch boxes. Ning Jin took bamboo slices and made jelly in the washbasin, and Yang Yi sold the jelly.

It comes in a bowl, just pour it into their bowl. It’s okay if you don’t bring a bowl. They picked a lot of clean reed leaves, and you can pour a small bowl of jelly into it after rolling it. It’s completely natural and pollution-free. .

If you want to add sugar water, then eat it in their bowl here.

It should be said that it costs nothing.

Tang Bao parked Zizi's car, walked over and asked, "Where did Li Shang go?"

"Sister, you're back!" Yang Zheng hurriedly handed the water bottle to her: "Brother Li said to go around and see where there are many people, so that we can sell separately tomorrow."

Tang Bao wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief: "It was too hard, you can take turns to rest together, besides, there are quite a few customers who come to buy today, and there will definitely be people who will come to buy again tomorrow. "

Shaojin also leaned over, looked up at his tanned red sweating head, and acted coquettishly with a smile: "Sister, wipe my face for me too?"

Tang Bao took a look at him, and wiped his face with a handkerchief: "Look at the sweat on your face, you guys should bring a few more towels to wipe your face tomorrow."

Yang Yi and Shaojin are getting older, so they can no longer enjoy the treatment of the two little ones. He wiped his face with a wet towel around his neck, looked at her with concern and asked, "Is everything going well?"

"It went well!" Seeing several people coming, Tang Bao stepped forward to help.

When it was almost sold out, Li Shang came back with an excited face: "There are also many people at the vegetable market, why don't we go there to sell in the morning?"

"Farewell, it's almost enough to sell so much every day!" Tang Bao just wanted them to exercise, but he didn't want the younger ones to be tired, and the loss outweighed the gain, so he could only divert their attention: "Besides, I understand I still want to get some loquat paste, and I want you to help me."

Gu Ningjin nodded: "Success, it's almost sold out, let's go back to the mountains to find loquats now."

"I just don't know if Er Gouzi and the others will finish picking them!" Gu Shaojin began to worry, and wished he could go back to pick them now: "But I saw that there are several loquats in the village that haven't been picked. If there are no loquats on the mountain, go to the village to exchange some." .”

Yang Zheng interjected from the sidelines: "In the morning, I saw that there were loquats selling here. It really doesn't work. We'll just come and buy them tomorrow morning."

In this day and age, people don't want other people's things in vain, all they think about is changing them.

Hearing what they said, the uncle who sold eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs came up a little embarrassed and asked: "Little comrades, do you want to collect loquats? The big loquat tree at my house is in full bloom this year, and there are still many loquats on the tree now." , I can’t finish it just by eating it at home, if you want it, I will pick some tomorrow!”

I am reluctant to eat it at home, so I just give some sweet mouths to the children at home.

Today he also bought a bowl of jelly, the young man honestly put a lot of sugar water for him, it was very sweet.

Tang Bao smiled and nodded: "Master, we want it, and we will come here to sell it tomorrow, and we will charge as much as you have."

"Hey, that works!"

……

It was only after three o'clock in the afternoon when they returned to the village.

Gu Yujun cooked a big pot of porridge in the morning, and it was just cold now. It was served with salted duck eggs, dried plums, vegetable meat, fermented bean curd and so on. It was really comfortable to eat.

When they were full, everyone went into the mountains with baskets on their backs to look for loquats.

They all know where there are loquat trees, but unfortunately, the children nowadays are short of snacks, which have long been missed by the children in the village, and now there are only a few scattered hanging on the branches.

Yang Zheng and the others cheered like monkeys and climbed the tree to pick loquats. Tang Bao and Yujun pointed at the side: "Yang Zheng, there are still up there!"

"Shaojin, look to your left!"

After Li Shang climbed up a loquat tree, he hugged the trunk and did not let go. Tang Bao saw it from the side and was amused by his appearance: "What are you doing? Could it be that this loquat tree has become a spirit? captivated you?"

"I, I can't get down, you help me quickly!" He remembered that he could climb trees when he was a child, but after being locked up for more than ten years, he couldn't climb trees anymore.

Gu Yujun heard it from the side, and hurriedly greeted: "Second Brother, Brother Yang, come and help Big Brother Li!"

What a joke, he wanted his sister-in-law to help him, it was a dream, his elder brother had specially told him to protect his sister-in-law.

Yang Yi responded, and quickly got down from the tree, and together with Shao Jin, they got people down from the tree.

Li Shang felt very depressed, so he simply went to look for herbal medicine now, he lost face here, so he had to find it from other places.

Hmph, sir, I'm not a simple person, I'm much better than you little bastards.

The few of them picked all the rest, and together they only weighed more than 20 catties.

"Forget it, don't look for it!" Tang Bao saw that it was already past five o'clock, and hurriedly greeted them: "Let's go back first, you go to the village to collect it, and just say eight cents a catty."

Yang Zheng also nodded: "That's right, we might as well sell jelly for two more days! Anyway, it's not dark yet, so let's cut some jelly grass and go back."

Tang Bao thought of the sun-dried jelly grass in his yard, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Why don't we leave it? We have enough at home for this year."

It's a pity that everyone except her has a soft spot for jelly jelly, and they wish they could take all these treasures home.

When they went back, their back baskets were full of jelly grass, and there was a bundle of grass under their armpits, so they were willing to go home.

When I came to the door of the house, I saw Wu Sanshu and Wu Aihua waiting at their door, and hurriedly greeted them with a smile: "Third Uncle, Fourth Brother, why are you here?"

Uncle Wu looked at Tang Bao lovingly: "Aihua wanted to ask you to get him some loquat paste, but he didn't bring you loquats. These are from our village. I bought them with sugar!"

Tang Bao stepped forward and looked at the two baskets of loquats by the door, and said with a smile, "This is really great, we only found about twenty catties when we went into the mountain! Sanbo, I'll start making it later, let the four Just come and get it tomorrow."

Wu Sanshu really thought Tang Bao liked it so much, and said with concern: "Then it's hard work for you. If there is anything at home, just come to me, you know?"

"I know, I'm going to see my aunt tomorrow, and my mother told me not to forget to take your and my aunt's pulse today!"

Tang Bao coaxed Uncle Wu into a smile, and only went to take a bath after they left.
