Chapter 28 Falling into the water

Miao Lan'er is a strong and good woman. She is a good person in the kitchen. When it comes to work, ordinary people can't compete with her as long as she wants. In addition, she has many intentions and enough scheming, which makes Fang Fang and Zhou Xiaomei always maintain three points of awe of her.

Of course, all women know that no matter how good a friend is, they sometimes have different faces and hearts. There will always be such a situation. They look like a person on the surface. In fact, black hands and stab behind their backs are often the most trustworthy person.

Miao Laner knows that there is no real friendship between her daughter-in-law, so she and Fang Fang have always played the role of the person who is not compatible and stabbed in the back.

Mrs. Zhou Tangshi saw this situation. If she wanted to invite Miao Laner out of the mountain, Fang Fang was the best assistant. However, on that day, the women finished their farm work and sat under the big tree to enjoy the cool. Several people talked about the messy things in the village, and Zhou Tang closed their eyes and refreshed.

Suddenly, Zhou Tang interrupted: "That year, the peach crisp sent by your aunt in the city tasted really good. Next time, when your aunt comes, ask her to buy some more."

"Milk. If you want to eat, will I cook it for you? What are you waiting for my aunt to do? My aunt knows that farming is busy now, and she won't come recently!" Miao Lan'er said flatteringly.

Zhou Tang smiled and said no. Fang Fang was very angry with Miao Laner since she guessed that Miao Laner stabbed her in the back. Although she still pretended to be the same as before, Fang Fang Fang couldn't help but be angry when she saw Miao Laner flattering again today.

"Sister-in-law, haven't you heard that the milk is going to eat peach cakes in the city. How can the one you made be comparable to the peach cake in the city?

"Why can't it be compared? Everyone says it's good to eat the snacks I made! I don't think you can eat well?" Miao Lan'er whitened Fang Fang's eyes. Fang Fang couldn't help giving her a white eye. Miao Laner's eyes stood up and just as she was about to say something, she heard Zhou Tang cough twice.

"Don't you two argue? Your sister-in-law's snacks are not bad. However, I thought that there are no snacks in our village. Let your aunt go to find a cheaper source of goods. Let's try it?" Zhou Tang said.

Fang Fang immediately showed a happy expression and said excitedly, "Milk, your idea is so good! Why do you still go to find someone else? Isn't the sister-in-law ready-made?

Zhou Tang immediately shook her head and said, "Your sister-in-law usually has too many things to do. This kind of work is hard work, so she won't take it. I think it would be great for you to go to the city to learn crafts with your third sister-in-law. When you come back, there are groceries and snacks in our grocery store.

"Milk, don't you look down on me too much? My craft is ready-made, and they are not even monks who have become monks halfway! Why don't you leave me as a big cook?"

"I'm afraid you can't stand the hard work. You have to stick to this job every day. If you quit halfway, where can I find a cook? Your second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law will do it. In case one of them quit, the other can still do it!" Zhou Tang said.

Miao Laner was indignant and said angrily, "Milk, what do you mean? Am I that kind of person? Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely do it well. You can always take care of it!"

After expressing her feelings angrily, Miao Lan'er suddenly saw Fang Fang on the opposite side showing a strange expression. Looking at it again, Zhou Tang smiled and seemed to achieve such happiness.

At that moment, Miao Laner suddenly understood that they deliberately provoked themselves! Miao Laner gritted her teeth angrily, but suddenly laughed again.

Isn't smile the most gentle antidote in the world?

Since that day, Miao Laner's main working environment has not been the cropland, but the kitchen. This made Fang Fang very dissatisfied. Is it okay? Isn't Miao Laner upgraded?

Fang Fang was angry, but she couldn't be angry. She is a good woman, so she often secretly learns Miao Laner's craftsmanship outside the kitchen.

Miao Laner also felt that her craft was a unique skill, so when she was making snacks in the kitchen, she refused to ask others to help her.

This kind of small abacus is louder than the other. Fang Fang is also jealous that Song Keren doesn't have to go to the ground because of his waist injury. This is really a blessing.

Miao Laner showed her skills. That night, you can see, there were almond cakes, peach cakes, glutinous rice cold cakes, sesame balls, sesame cakes and thousand-layer cakes made by Miao Laner on the table.

After tasting these snacks, the Song family was very satisfied. Zhou Tang hinted to Song Keren that there could be more kinds, such as preserves.

Song Keren is a smart man. Zhou Tang is nothing more than trying to disperse Miao Lan'er's rights. If Miao Laner has the final say, something will happen sooner or later.

However, she hasn't made candied fruit either. These days, there is neither Aunt Baidu nor Google. Where can she go to check?

Fortunately, she has an erudite husband, Zhou Heng.

Since Song Keren asked Zhou Heng for help, Zhou Heng has not been idle. After struggling for two or three days, Song Ke was very grateful for finding a recipe for making preserves from a wild book. Zhou Heng smiled, and his smile was full of hard work.

In those days, there happened to be newly listed plums. Song Keren did not stop, so he simply used plums to make preserves.

First of all, sugar and honey are essential accessories.

Along the round ditch in the middle of the plum, Song Keyen took care of all the two halves of the plum. Her movements look clumsy and often cut off. Fortunately, no one saw her, otherwise, she would probably be scolded for being a prodigal.

Song Keren threw the plum meat into a small pot full of water and boiled it. She didn't know when she would take the plums out and cross the river by touching the stone. Anyway, the plums were picked from her backyard.

The meat of the plum gradually changed color. Song Keyen poked it with his chopsticks and saw that the meat of the plum was much softer. After boiling for a while, he took out the plum.

White sugar is poured into hot water and boiled into a sticky sugar liquid. When Song Keren saw that the sugar liquid was cooked, he took the small pot with sugar liquid from the fire and threw the plums in, which was regarded as pickling.

Zhou Heng's recipe did not say how long it would take to marinate the plums. Song Keyen tested it for a while, and half of the plums were almost smashed by her. In the evening, Song Keyen picked up a piece of plum and tasted it. The surface is very sweet, but the taste is still not in.

She simply grabbed two more handfuls of sugar and sprinkled them on the plums. After sleeping, Liu Shuangshuang tasted it, but the taste was still poor. Her mother-in-law Zhou Zhangshi tasted the plum. With her decades of cooking experience, she pointed to the plum and said, "You can boil it with sugar water, and the taste will come in after a while."

Song Keren was ordered to cook a bunch of incense in sugar water, and taste it again, huh! Sure enough, the smell went in.

Normally, honey should be sprinkled on the outside of this plum. Song Keren cut corners and replaced it with thick sugar water. Because of the high cost of honey, we have to use sugar water to reduce costs.

Song Keren's preserved plum has been affirmed by everyone. Everyone is very happy that the Song family has expanded their new career, no matter whether it is superficial or sincere, which at least makes Zhou Tang very gratified. She looked radiant and almost returned to 18 years old.

Song Keren took advantage of the victory and made candied apples, pears, apricots and other preserves according to the method of pickling plums. This thing is sticky. If customers come to buy it, it's not easy to get it, isn't it?

These days, there are no plastic bags, and oil paper probably won't work, let alone straw paper. What should I do?

Song Keren was almost worried about this problem. That day, she went for a walk in the village and suddenly saw the lotus leaves in the pond at the west end of the village!

Yes, lotus leaf! Isn't that the best packaging? There is no cost, but also clean and environmentally friendly! Song Keren was excited about his great discovery and quickly rolled up the corners of his skirt and walked to the edge of the small pond.

Suddenly, her waist was sore, and Song Keren suddenly felt something wrong. She quickly wanted to straighten up. At this moment, her feet, which were weak due to back pain, suddenly slipped, and Song Keyen exclaimed and fell into the pond.

Song Keren can't swim, which is very flustered. Coupled with her waist weakness, she can't support her body at all. She floated and waved her hands in a panic.

"Help..." Song Keyen just shouted, and his feet seemed to be pulled by someone, and suddenly sank.

Song Keren said that this is over. She tried to climb the water with her feet, like a duck, and showed half of her head again. However, before she could take a full breath, her body sank and sank again.

Song Keren was so panicked that she opened her eyes fiercely under the water.

She tried to look back to see if the water grass hooked her feet. At that moment, Song Keren saw a man's face in a trance!

The man lay under the water, as if he had been dead for a long time. He opened his eyes and stared angrily in front of him.

Song Keren was scared for a while and couldn't help exhaling. At that moment, my chest was suffothed to death. She tried hard to pat the water with her hand, but her body did not move at all. Her chest seemed to be pressed with a lot of money, and she was not angry at all.

Song Keren couldn't hold back and opened his mouth. At that time, countless water poured into his mouth. She pressed her breath in pain, and the water choked into her lungs, and the distance cough made more water pour into her mouth.

At that moment, Song Keren suddenly understood that the man lying low in the pond must have died like this. Perhaps, the man's ghost came to find a scapegoat. Just in time, she was fooled by this brainless thing.

At that moment, Song was so regretful that she complained that she was stupid.

Unfortunate, it's all late. For some reason, her hands gradually stopped tossing and her eyes gradually closed...

Look, how beautiful the sunshine is. The warm sun sprinkled on the ground, and the girls and daughters-in-law happily changed into summer clothes. There are red, green, pink and blue. Life still coexists with pain and happiness. No matter who it is, they can't escape the reincarnation of fate.
