Wen Jin said with some embarrassment: "I'm just thinking about the lotus root starch that Xin'er mentioned. Yesterday's jelly was delicious. Isn't this lotus root starch even more delicious?"
The lotus root starch made in later generations was indeed very delicious with a lot of ingredients added, but nowadays there are no ingredients that can be added to it. She is really not sure whether it will be delicious or not. "I haven't eaten it either, let's give it a try."
Wen Wen asked Wen Jin to take down the hanging lotus root starch, then asked him to use a knife to chop it up, and then she kneaded it into powder with her hands.
Yesterday, a total of three lotus root starch blocks were hung, and it didn't take much effort to get them all done.
The hot water in the pot was already boiling. Wen Wen saw this and took out an empty bowl. He put half of the newly powdered lotus root starch into the bowl. He first added a little cold water to dissolve the powder, and then
Add hot water and stir quickly. After a while, the lotus root starch becomes a paste. As soon as the lotus root starch is prepared, a light fragrance comes out.
After stirring for a while and there is no white mixed in, the bowl of lotus root starch can be eaten directly.
She handed the brewed lotus root starch to Wen Jin, "Come on, third brother, you taste it first."
Wen Jin was quite rude. He took the bowl and took a big bite. How can I describe it? It's delicious, but he said, "Why is it so sticky?"
"This is what it looks like when it comes out. Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious. It has a sweet, light and refreshing fragrance. It's suitable for girls to eat. It's also much tastier than last year's lotus root."
The key point is that last year's lotus root, this year's lotus root is not among the unpalatable ones.
Wen Xin smiled and said: "It can be used to satisfy hunger at this critical moment, and it can be stored for a long time as long as it is sealed in a cool place."
In this way, if there is nothing to eat at home, this can simply satisfy their hunger.
Everyone in the family can understand the warm words, and as soon as he heard that they can be stored for a long time, Wen Jin couldn't take any time off, "No one wants these lotus roots anyway, can we get some more, by the way?"
Sister, you can sell the jelly to make money, can you make money by selling this one too?"
"Yes, but our family's conditions don't allow it. This lotus root starch needs cold water and boiling hot water to brew well. If we want to sell it, we need to prepare a stove and a kettle." Their family can't afford these for the time being.
.
As soon as he heard that he had to prepare so much, Wen Jin understood. But if you can't sell this, you can still sell jelly. You don't need these things for jelly. Make the money first, and then talk about the next step after making money.
Wen Jin no longer struggled.
If you have this lotus root starch in the morning, no matter whether you are full or not, you will definitely not cook porridge again. Moreover, the lotus root starch comes for free. Eating this is equivalent to saving food at home, and everyone will happily eat it.
The key is that Wen Wen doesn't restrict them from eating lotus root starch. If one bowl is not enough, they can brew another bowl. As for the method, the brothers had already learned it when she brewed it for the first time, and there was no need for Wen Wen to get started.
.
Everyone in the Wen family ate two bowls of lotus root starch in a row and felt completely satisfied. However, looking at the little lotus root starch, Wen Shan felt a little distressed, "So much lotus root starch, I finished it in one meal."
Wenhou smiled and said: "I've just finished eating. There's still a lot left."
"But wasn't there more at the beginning?" Wen Shan said.
At this time, Wen Yu explained: "Shan'er, these are considered rations. You cannot save what you need every day. If you don't eat them, you won't have the energy to work. And although we eat a lot of lotus root starch, this is not the food we have at home."
It’s saved, so there’s no need to feel bad.”
Wen Shan thought about it and it was right. Although he was distressed that most of the lotus root noodles were missing, he might be happier to save a meal of food. "I know second brother, Shan'er will work hard today and try to earn everything he eats."
return."
"Okay, then Shan'er worked hard today."
After breakfast, the group went out again. After two days of running up and down the mountain from the Wen family, they attracted the attention of the villagers.
Of course, there are a lot of Wen brothers and sisters, and every time they go down the mountain, it's hard not to attract the attention of the villagers.
There are always people saying some sarcastic words when people come and go, Wen Wen doesn't care at all, but Wen Jin can't help but mutter several words, "These people really want to pick it by themselves, but are they lazy?"
If you don't move it, we won't be allowed to pick it."
Wen Hou said: "Why do you listen to them? As long as we can have enough to eat."
However, after running for two days in a row, they had almost picked what they wanted to pick. Wen Yu said: "Second brother, why don't we go to the city tomorrow, otherwise this hot weather should be over."
Wen Yu actually arranged this, "I was just about to tell you this. This lotus root wrapped in mud will not go bad if left at home for two days. Don't make lotus root powder today. Go back and give all the seeds of this jelly fruit."
Dig it out, and chop the pears and hawthorns into small pieces. I will just dissolve the pear paste before going out tomorrow. We are selling on the first day, so we don’t need to prepare too much. Our small water tank and one water tank are enough.
.”
But when it comes to this, Wen Wen is actually a little worried. After all, it is very eye-catching to take out such things without riding a donkey cart. Not to mention others, it will be difficult for the family, but Wen Yu said: "No
Yes, it will be fine if Xin'er believes in your second brother."
Seeing Wen Yu's mysterious look, Wen Wen didn't ask any more questions, but when it came to the water tank, Wen Wen asked: "Second brother, can we just sell a small tank? Isn't it too little?"
"No, it's the first day. It would be bad to take too much."
Wen Yu was not as happy as Wen Wen imagined. After all, the jelly was fresh. Just because their family liked it did not mean that everyone liked it. What if they prepared too much and couldn't sell it? Wouldn't this dampen Wen Wen's enthusiasm? Wen Yu felt
This small water tank is enough for warmth and fun.
Naturally, Wen Wen didn't think much about it. He just thought it was inconvenient to take or to explore the way on the first day, so he said: "Second brother, this water tank needs to be cleaned, otherwise it will be too dirty and it will look unsightly. What if?"
What should I do if I don’t want to eat it?”
Wen Yu said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about it. My second brother will come and wash it in person to ensure that it is cleaned and will not delay your business tomorrow."
"Um."
Even if you are just selling jelly, there are still a lot of things you need to prepare. For example, the small water tank at home is used to hold the jelly, but those hawthorn and pear pieces cannot be packed in a wooden basin. The wooden basin will be surrounded by water after use.
The wood has turned black because it has been exposed to water for a long time. Pretending to eat it is too unclean. No matter what others say, Wen Xin is not willing to do it anyway.
If you don’t have one at home, you can only focus on space.
