Chapter 51 Grape Cake
The impact of digging up wild ginseng is not limited to this. Su Anying and even Xu's family mbers have followed suit.
At the other end of the goods room, after the fresh ginseng is washed and stead, there are only so many tasks left to dry, dry, fork, cut ginseng whiskers, pick grades, and bind ginseng whiskers.
The follow-up work can be regarded as technical. It is effortless, light, and earns a lot of work points.
Many people can't grab it, only so experienced daughters-in-law are left.
A person like Su Anying who bought a house and worked in the house for the first year, normally speaking, would not be able to pick her at all.
As a result, many people were not selected, but Su Anying was selected and stayed in the warehouse to continue working.
Even Su Anying herself was very puzzled, why was she selected?
So when Xu Shiyan ca ho from work, Su Anying spoke out the problems in her heart.
"Nothing? It's better for you to work.
My daughter-in-law is so capable and ingenious, can you still struggle with the little work in the house? "
Of course Xu Shiyan understood why, most of it was due to the Zhao family.
Xu Shiyan earned more than 500 yuan with Zhao Jianshe. The Zhao family reciprocated, and it is normal to take care of the young couple.
Of course, Su Anying is indeed capable. If she doesn't work well, even if Zhao Dahai wants to take care of her, she will co out of nowhere.
So things, although everyone knows it well, still need to be convinced, otherwise it is easy to follow the truth.
"Okay, don't worry about those things, just work hard in the warehouse, I guess you can almost reach Luoxue."
"Then, these are the mountain grapes I picked from the mountain."
Xu Shiyan said, and moved in the big basket of grapes outside the door.
Su Anying was dumbfounded at the ti, "Why are there so many? You didn't work today?"
A large back basket is full, how many years will it take to eat it?
"Don't ntion it, didn't you run out of the mountain grapes I picked for you last ti? I was thinking of picking so more at noon this morning.
As a result, the group of people didn’t know why they were going crazy, and they all followed into the woods, and caught a few vines. This was a disaster, and they were all picked. "
Speaking of this, Xu Shiyan also looked helpless. He just wanted to get sothing to satisfy his wife's hunger, and he didn't plan to ask for so much.
Su Anying pursed her lips and snickered when she heard the words. In fact, she could probably guess why.
It's all for building a good relationship with Xu Shiyan, and waiting for Xu Shiyan to take them into the mountains next year.
"But there are so many mountain grapes, and there is no place to put them. They will not rot if they are stored in the warehouse for ten days and half a month?"
Su Anying is also worried, even if she is pregnant and loves sour food, she still can't eat so much.
"It's okay, let's eat first. After eating, let's clean up the mountain grapes. I'll make grape cake for you."
Xu Shiyan rolled his eyes, and imdiately had a solution.
Su Anying doesn't know what grape cake is, but since her husband said it, there must be a way.
So the young couple ate dinner happily, then picked the grapes in the back basket and washed them with clean water.
Pour the cleaned mountain grapes into the pot, add an appropriate amount of water, and boil at the bottom.
While cooking, use tools such as a fence to crush the grape skins.
When the water in the pot turns bright purple, use a strainer to remove the grape skins, fruit stems and seeds, and continue cooking on high heat.
Cook until most of the water in the pot has evaporated, add a little sugar, and then pour in the flour noodles made from potatoes.
Stir well, bring to a boil again, when big bubbles appear, stop the heat and put it in a basin.
"Okay, let it cool overnight, use a shovel or knife tomorrow morning, cut it into small pieces, and put it outside to dry."
After working half the night, I finally finished it, and now I can sleep in peace.
"You are so good, how can you know everything? Can you make grape cake?"
Su Anying's eyes are only shining, what kind of man did she marry? Why do you think your husband knows everything?
Xu Shiyan was a little embarrassed to be stared at by his wife.
"The custom in my hotown, in autumn, is to peel pears, dry red skins in the mountains, and boil grape cakes."
There is indeed such a habit in Shijiagou.
There is no ginseng planted there, and the crops in the fields are not growing well. There are pear trees and mangrove trees in every garden.
In autumn, won in every household make these, and save them for snacks during the Chinese New Year.
Although Xu Shiyan was still very young when the Xu family moved out of Shijiagou, he heard his mother talk about it.
Furthermore, this thing is not too difficult, and it is quite easy to use, just to coax the daughter-in-law, as long as the daughter-in-law is happy.
"It's quite interesting in my hotown. Co on, tell about it."
Having said that, Su Anying beca even more curious, so she had to drag Xu Shiyan into the house and let him talk about things in his hotown.
This talk lasted until midnight, and the next morning, Xu Shiyan almost got up late.
The work of Shendi is still going on, and Xu Shiyan will also take advantage of the rest ti to go into the forest to get sothing delicious.
When the mountain grapes are gone, we will crack pine cones, pick walnuts, and pick hazelnuts.
It is said that if you are pregnant, you should eat more nuts, which is good for the child. Anyway, as long as it is good for Su Anying and the child, he is willing to do it.
Busy and busy, ti flies by, and it’s October in the blink of an eye, and the work in Shendi is coming to an end.
After the ginseng soil is well ground, mix so loess in places with too much black soil, and then use a shovel to turn it over from top to bottom to make sharp soil ridges, then you can prepare to plant ginseng.
The ginseng seeds with open openings are sprinkled in the soil and grown for three years, and the soil fertility is not enough. It needs to be taken out and transplanted again. This is called planting ginseng.
The ti for planting ginseng is also particular. If it is too early, the moss cells of the reed head will not grow well, and it will be easily damaged, which will affect the ergence rate.
It doesn’t work if it’s too late, it’s all frozen, and the ginseng soil is frozen in lumps, and if the cover is not solid, it is easy to cause frost damage, and the stick will rot in the second year.
Generally speaking, they are all planted before the frost, and the ginseng seeds have to be selected and graded when they co out of the ground, so the ginseng seeds should be planted one week before the frost.
October 16th, the team began to participate in the competition, the sa dozens of people from last ti, drove the carriage straight to Qianchuan to participate in the field.
You can’t use three-tooth tools for ginseng seeds, you have to use four-tooth tools. The two tools are similar, that is, the four-tooth tool has one more tooth and the spacing is closer.
Ginseng seeds only grow for two or three years, and the seeds are densely scattered. Compared with the ginseng that is produced, they are naturally much smaller.
Picking up ginseng seeds is slower. Most of the ti, when one person is planing with four teeth, at least two people have to pick them up.
"Okay, everyone, let's take a break and eat. I haven't been idle this afternoon, and I got up pretty fast."
Xu Shixiang was still the leader, and when the ti ca, he called to rest there.
Everyone stopped their hands, and the ginseng seed pickers quickly picked up the ginseng seeds on the ground and put them in sacks, and then everyone went back to the ginseng house to eat.
"Hey? What's the matter? Didn't Mr. Li turn on the fire to heat our als?" When we arrived at the house, we found that there was not even a spark under the pot and the pot was empty. Everyone was a little puzzled, Mr. Why did Li head go?
"Oh, co quickly, Uncle Li has fallen behind the firewood pile." Soone shouted.
