After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

When people in Zhulin Village heard about white sugar, they asked blankly: "Can't sugar cane only be used to make brown sugar? Can it also be used to make white sugar?"

Brown sugar is expensive, but white sugar is even more valuable. The sugar cane they grow can produce brown sugar, but how can they also produce white sugar?

How can you make two of the same thing?

Shui Qing smiled and explained softly: "Okay, white sugar is just brown sugar with the color removed, the inside is the same."

The people in Zhulin Village looked in disbelief.

They always thought they were made from two different crops.

"Can we also make white sugar? God! Madam, you are really amazing!"

"Why can't you do anything?"

Shui Qing did not continue to elaborate, only said: "Come on, let's make the first batch of brown sugar first, and then try to make white sugar. The less people know about the craft of white sugar, the better, so we will have to select the person responsible for the white sugar later. candidate.”

The people in Zhulin Village immediately straightened their backs and rushed forward to work according to the steps Shui Qing just said.

They have been to Shanshui Village and know the model of the medicinal materials shop and the toothbrush shop. The core craftsmanship is in the hands of a few people. Although they are all servants, the contract of sale is in the hands of the master, and the power of life and death is also in the master's family. In the hands, the master does not have to worry about their loyalty, but being chosen to be responsible for the core technology also represents the master’s recognition of them.

How can you not perform well!

Shui Qing looked at the people who were in a mess like headless flies, and said loudly: "You guys line up first, some of the men are responsible for moving the sugar cane, and some are responsible for pressing the sugar cane juice and taking the sugar cane juice to the next room for boiling;

The women boiled the sugar cane juice and stirred it in pairs. It would be too much for one person to stir for more than two hours, so the two of them took turns;

The same goes for sand makers. "

The men and women in Zhulin Village did not give detailed instructions to Shuiqing, but divided the people responsible for each task internally.

The main purpose of the host's visit this time is to watch them work. The final decision depends on their individual performance. It is useless to earn anything now. The better they perform, the more useful they will be.

Shui Qing took Yan Qiuxing back to Late Summer to see a few women.

See how strong they are, whether they are agile with their hands and feet, and even how well they cooperate with each other.

Before coming here, I asked more than a dozen new wives from Zhulin Village about their respective situations.

After more than a year of getting along with each other, these more than ten people have already integrated into Shanshui Village, and they have a strong sense of belonging to the host family. When talking about the people of Zhulin Village, they can start from the standpoint of the host family and speak honestly. Show each other's strengths and weaknesses without hiding anything.

Even if there is bias, it's okay. After all, there are more than ten people. You can just analyze most of the same comments by yourself.

When Yan Qiuxing returned to late summer, he watched the women working and recalled the words taught by his mother.

Boiling sugar is a labor-intensive and time-consuming task. It was not until dark that the first batch was finally made!

Pour the prepared mold into the mold, and it still needs to cool before being released from the mold. The sky is already dark, and you can see something today.

Shui Qing told him to pack his things, close the doors and windows, and come back to see them tomorrow.

Dinner was prepared long ago, and at first glance it was all meat. There were two vegetables at noon, but only one was left at night.

After dinner and a brief wash by candlelight, Shui Qing fell asleep easier than expected after running around all day and almost fell asleep.

Early in the morning of the next day, people in Zhulin Village had already gotten up. They did not dare to disturb the main house, so they walked slowly to the main house to check if they were awake. When the house was built, there were three additional main houses. On weekdays, it can be used as a place to discuss matters in the village. When the master comes, it can be cleaned up and turned into a separate residence.

It is clean and comfortable, and it also saves the master's family from having to live in the house of their servants.

Aunt Zhou was in charge of the host's breakfast today. She used an old hen to cook a large pot of chicken soup, rolled out noodles into it, and served it with a plate of appetizing pickled radish, hot and sour pickled cowpeas, stir-fried cabbage hearts, and cold spinach.

Seeing the breakfast brought by Aunt Zhou, the men frowned visibly, and you pointed out: "Aunt Zhou, are you too vegetarian? The chicken in the noodle soup is meat."

"Yes, although it comes with four dishes, none of them are meaty. It's so hard for the host to come here, how can I give them this?"

"How can the pickled radish and pickled cowpeas we eat on weekdays be used to entertain the master! No, no, it should be replaced with meat."

"Yes, I would say these four side dishes should be changed to stir-fried rabbit meat, fried poached eggs, braised fish, and bacon and stir-fried garlic. It would be a perfect match! This is the perfect match for the host's house."

Now they can eat a meal of meat every three days, all thanks to the master's family. Of course, they must give the best to entertain the master's family!

Aunt Zhou's old hen soup is really good, and the noodles are also made of white flour, but the side dishes are not good, they are too plain.

Aunt Zhou was also a little unsure and said, "I asked my daughter about this. She said that this is how my family eats it in the morning. Sometimes it's even simpler than this."

The eldest daughter of her family is married to a rich man, and she takes turns preparing the meals for the master's family on weekdays. According to her daughter, the master's family sometimes makes a pot of porridge with a few pickles and boiled eggs in the morning.

How could she really cook a pot of porridge for her master's family? This was something she had to mention again and again!

Moreover, my daughter also said that my wife said that there was too much meat in the dishes yesterday and asked me to cook more vegetables today. She only paired them with two vegetables in the morning.

Shuiqing heard something about pickled radish and pickled cowpeas in her sleep, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

She had no choice but to eat meat all day yesterday, and now she wanted to eat something spicy and sour to appetize her appetite. After she woke up, she heard some intermittent words outside the window, quickly put on her clothes, opened the door and walked out.

The people outside the house did not expect that the low voice still disturbed Shui Qing. They immediately lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes as if they had made a mistake: "I'm sorry, madam, we woke you up."

Even though they have lowered their voices, it’s still their fault for being loud!

The villagers are used to talking and shouting at the top of their lungs, which would wake up the lady.

"It's okay, I went to bed early last night and had enough sleep." Shui Qing comforted in a soft voice, turning his eyes to the wooden tray held by Aunt Zhou, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Is this our breakfast? Bring it in quickly! "

Except for the chicken soup, the other four side dishes are really good!

Aunt Zhou let out a happy sigh and quickly brought breakfast into the room.

He also didn’t forget to look back and look at others: “You see, our host is not arrogant at all. We enjoy eating pickles with noodles.”

All the men think about is that the master’s house is too simple!

Shui Qing didn't know what people in Zhulin Village were thinking. She just felt that eating a bowl of authentic old hen soup hand-made noodles on a winter morning, paired with two plates of pickles and stir-fried vegetables, would make her feel comfortable from the inside out.

After breakfast, I saw everyone gathered at the door. Without further delay, I waved my hand directly: "Let's go and see how the candy is doing!"
