C24 Delicious Peach Gum
"So what did you do in the cave?"
"I thought he was too pitiful, so I gave him something. I swear, I let him go, but he still hasn't woken up! "
"You gave him your eggs?" Mu Nanzhi thought back and forth, thinking that there was only this little thing at home that could make Mu Nanxi take it out.
"Mm …" Sister, don't be angry. "
"Silly girl."
He hadn't even eaten his fill before he sent it to someone else. Could it be that this girl was really enchanted by that face? How old was she?
Mu Nanzhi poked Mu Nanxi's head with her hand, but in the end, she still hugged Mu Nanxi.
"Alright, I won't do it again. "Big sister will make you some sugar water to eat later, go wash the mint leaves properly!"
"Then aren't you angry, sister?"
"Hmm, no need to be angry."
When Mu Nanxi heard this, her tears immediately turned into a smile as she took the mint leaves to the side.
However, Mu Nanzhi felt slightly uneasy in her heart.
However, as the sky gradually darkened, Mu Nanzhi still felt that it was more important to finish the dinner first. After all, Mu Beiwang would be back soon.
And she had something to discuss with him today.
First, of course, she had to make some peach syrup.
Modern peach gum was usually cooked together with tremella and added with sugar. After cooling, it was extremely sweet and filling the stomach.
But in the Mu Family, there was no Silver Ear, and certainly no sugar either. If you want to put sugar in, it is certainly not a long-term solution.
That's right, Mu Nanzhi wanted to make some money from her peach syrup.
Her family's land and livestock had all been wiped out by her second uncle's family. In the short term, she didn't expect them to return it obediently. And even if it was returned, how would the three of them, as teenagers, be able to plow the fields?
It's not bad if you let her grow some small dishes. This kind of large-scale farming is something she has never done before. She didn't want the Liu siblings to do it either.
Currently, all three of Mu Beiwang's family were working in the coal mine alone. Actually, they couldn't make ends meet. Furthermore, he was still so young. He should be studying, not doing such heavy work.
Besides, Mu Beiwang did a lot of work, and he only took half of the money from others. It was too exhausting.
So Mu Nanzhi had to think of a way to make money. To rely on the mountains, to rely on the water. She doesn't know how to farm, she doesn't know how to hunt. The only possibility for her to gain an advantage was through spending time on cooking. Moreover, the people here didn't know much about many things, so she had the advantage.
Peach syrup was the first thing that came to her mind. Since spring had started, the weather had gradually turned hot. Perhaps there was a market for sweet sugared water?
But how to solve the sugar problem is Mu Nanzhi's current problem.
Just as she was lost in her own thoughts, because Mu Nanxi had angered A'jie earlier, she always wanted to tease A'jie to be happy. Therefore, when she saw the sweet potatoes in Auntie Yun's food, she immediately ran over to provide her A'jie with some ingredients for dinner.
"Sister, look, Aunt Yun gave us back our sweet potatoes!"
Mu Nanzhi's eyes lit up when she saw the two sweet potatoes held high in Mu Nanxi's hands.
Sweet potatoes are sweet! Wouldn't it be just fine to boil it in peach gum?
"Little Nanxi, you're too smart!"
Lili hugged Mu Nanxi's face and gave her a big kiss, stunning Nanxi.
Mu Nanzhi took the sweet potato and started to pour her peach syrup excitedly.
She grabbed a handful of peach gum and soaked it in water. During this time, the sweet potatoes would be boiled into a thick shape, which could be considered as a concentration.
He then poured the peach gum into the water and boiled it. After that, he poured the concentrated sweet potato into the pot and mixed the mint leaves into the mixture.
After all of this was done, Mu Beiwang walked into the yard under the moonlight.
When he returned, he saw Mu Nanzhi nervously looking at Mu Nanxi carrying a bowl into her mouth. When Mu Nanzhi saw that he had returned, she immediately brought him a bowl.
"Is it good?"
It was really a matter of livelihood, so Mu Nanzhi paid special attention to it.
"En!" Perhaps the desire in Mu Nanzhi's eyes was too obvious, Mu Nanxi nodded her head heavily and said, "Sister A, it's nice to drink. It's also cool with the sweetness." She had never had such a delicious taste before. She felt her mouth was slippery as the sweet taste slid into her heart. She felt very comfortable.
"Really! "Really!" Mu Nanzhi felt that she definitely had a pair of sparkling, starry eyes right now.
