Chapter 261 What's the matter with being a little cute?
It’s easy to get up a tree but hard to get down!
Chen Yu looked at the land under his feet. It was so close yet so far away, and his heart twitched.
Su Zhuyin was also afraid. He was so brave when he came up. What would he do if he came down?
Grandfather and grandson squatted on a tree branch and looked at each other silently. Chen Yu and Su Zhuyin were just worried. She was still hoping that Chi Yi would take action quickly.
After all, it was getting late and we still had a long way to go down the mountain.
"Grandma, don't worry, I'll give it a try first." Su Zhuyin carried the basket filled with hawthorns on his back and carefully recalled the posture when he came up. He crossed his legs tightly around the tree trunk and fixed his body with the rope. He tried going down.
He moved a little bit, nervous sweat rolled down his face. He didn't dare to look down, so he could only hold on to the rope tightly, but suddenly his foot slipped...
"Chi Yi!" Chen Yu yelled out after being frightened.
Chi Yi had already taken action. He flew to support Su Zhuyin, cut the rope with his dagger, and landed lightly and smoothly. He put down the pale Su Zhuyin and stood up again: "I'm sorry, old lady."
What's there to offend? Chen Yu was directly picked up by Chi Yi and landed on his back.
Su Zhuyin looked at Chi Yi and then at Chen Yu, and he understood everything in his heart. Sure enough, his eldest brother and Qi Yu were so reliable in doing things. He cupped his fists and thanked Chi. He carried the hawthorn on his back and supported Chen Yu, and the grandfather and grandson went down the mountain.
When going down the mountain, Chen Yu paid attention to the medicinal materials on the mountain. He still remembered that when he first came to Laojun Mountain, there were so many medicinal materials and they were old enough. Now, the medicinal materials on both sides of the mountain road obviously have little seedlings left.
In the past year, almost all the medicinal materials from Laojun Mountain have arrived in the Su family's warehouse.
Su Zhuyin has a silent temperament, but he dared to look at her grandma secretly. He also made up his mind to get closer to her in the future. In order to get closer to her, he climbed a tree at a young age. If his parents knew about this, he would
This family trick is gone.
It's not that I'm afraid of being beaten, it's just that my heart feels warm, and it feels so good to have grandma take care of me.
There is another reason why he is afraid of his grandma, and that is that among the many children in the Su family, he is the only one who saw his grandma chop off his fourth uncle's fingers with his own eyes. The scene seems to be engraved in his mind, and he always thinks about it.
If I don’t go, I will subconsciously think of that scene every time I see grandma.
Even talking about it makes me feel ridiculous. My fourth uncle doesn't care anymore now, but I still can't let it go.
Back home, Chen Yu directed Su Zhuyin to clean the hawthorns and soak the cleaned hawthorns in light salt water. Chen Yu took chopsticks and taught Su Zhuyin to remove hawthorn seeds from the hawthorns. She went to the kitchen to boil sugar.
After boiling the white sugar and rock sugar in water until it became slightly viscous, Chen Yu poked her head out and said, "Zhuyin, are the hawthorns ready?"
"Okay." Su Zhuyin took the bamboo basket and brought the hawthorn over.
Chen Yu put hawthorn in the pot: "Add a fire, we can eat it after dinner."
Su Zhuyin was sitting on a small bench adding firewood and looked up at his grandma's serious look. This was a feeling he had never experienced before. It turned out that being with grandma was not scary, but he could learn a lot of things.
When the heat is right, put it out in a wooden basin to dry. Chen Yu selected six small jars and placed them in the river altar. The round opening of the bottom of the jar is divided into two layers. The outer layer is a rim and the inner mouth is covered.
, cover the lid and pour wine or water along the outer edge to achieve a perfect seal.
When Chen Yu discovered this style of jar, she was extremely happy. However, all the materials were available, but she lacked time and did not implement her kimchi plan.
When cleaning the jar, Chen Yu decided to make more kimchi and send it to Sihai Restaurant as a refreshing side dish. Don't think it's inconspicuous. If you really meet someone who likes this bite, you won't have to trade it for meat.
"Does Zhuyin still remember what happened to your fourth uncle?" Chen Yu handed the painted jar to Su Zhuyin: "Wipe it dry and there will be no water stains at all."
Su Zhuyin sat next to her and wiped the jar: "Grandma, I was really scared at that time. When I see grandma, I will think of that scene."
Chen Yu turned her head and glanced at Su Zhuyin and smiled: "Well, grandma was also scared, but your fourth uncle was too bastard at that time. Although our family is very poor, no matter how poor we are, we can't take advantage of our children."
"Grandma protects Zhu Yin, Zhu Yin knows it." Su Zhuyin raised his head and looked at Chen Yu: "Grandma, our family is not poor now, it is all thanks to grandma."
Chen Yu shook his head: "No, it's the result of everyone in the family's hard work. Otherwise, grandma alone wouldn't be able to do it alone."
"Furthermore, you young children are the hope of the Su family's future. If you want to never be poor, each of you must work harder." Chen Yu finished brushing the last jar and wiped it with a soft cloth.
: "Speaking of which, the hardest part is for you children. Are you tired of studying every day?"
Su Zhuyin shook his head: "I'm not tired. Reading is very interesting. My father didn't let me read the books in his study. I secretly went in and read them several times. I told my second brother about the Wine Book after I discovered it."
It’s great to be a child who loves to read. Chen Yu said with a smile: “I’ll tell your father later that you can read the Su family books as long as you like. You can read whatever you want.”
Su Zhuyin felt happy.
Chen Yu got up and went to check that the canned hawthorns had cooled down. He set up the jars and put in the hawthorns and sugar juice. The six small jars were all full. The sweet and sour taste was very tempting.
Cover the lid and put it in the bamboo basket, then take Su Zhu to hide in the cellar.
It was the first time for Su Zhuyin to go down to the cellar. The Su family's cellar was a basement structure. Walking down the stairs, there were wine jars, herb shelves and an area where various vegetables and fruits were placed.
Chen Yu put down the jar and pointed to the wine jar: "Go and get a small jar of wine."
Bringing the wine jar over, Su Zhuyin asked doubtfully: "Grandma, do you still want to use wine?"
"Of course." Chen Yu opened the wine jar and sealed the canned jar along the outer edge: "This can have a sealing effect. If air can't get inside, it won't go bad. And the canned food needs to be refrigerated before it tastes good. I'm going to make it today.
If there is enough, we can also eat canned food in winter."
Su Zhuyin pursed his lips: "If the second brother knew about it, he would want to do this deal if the guarantee was not enough."
Hearing this, Chen Yu paused. What a good deal! He didn't know how to make use of Liulang's wife's family skills at first, but he didn't expect that he just wanted to train Su Zhuyin, and he got it right.
Canning is not difficult to make, but preservation is difficult. Imagine what ancient people could eat in winter? Just various preserved fruits. If someone took out a juicy can at this time, what would it be like?
!
Whether it is porcelain or pottery, as long as the shape of the container is suitable, it is not too difficult to preserve the can. Everyone knows that the can will not be damaged if the seal is good. This is not a business, but a mature business.
The chain appears!
We need to find a porcelain burner!
"Grandma?" Su Zhuyin saw that Chen Yu was lost in thought and hurriedly spoke out. He was really afraid that grandma would fall asleep again. After all, grandma said that older people can easily become sleepy.
Chen Yu raised his head, glanced at Su Zhuyin, and smiled: "Good boy! You just woke up the dreamer with one word. Come on, let's go out."
Su Zhuyin followed Chen Yu out of the cellar in a daze. He found that grandma was not majestic at all, but she was a little cute. Why?
