Chapter 163 Maltose
The next morning, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the soles of her feet and found that there was nothing serious about it. However, she didn't plan to cut pigweed today. Her feet were too stuffy to wear cloth shoes, and she was afraid that the wound would become inflamed. She still obediently stayed at home to rest for a day.
After lunch, Lu Xiaoxiao was sitting in the yard arranging medicinal materials, and soon heard someone knocking on the door.
Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door and saw that it was the second sister, so she let her into the room to talk.
When she came to the room, Lu Xiaoxiao asked the second sister what was the reason for coming to her. The second sister did not speak but took out an oiled paper bag from her pocket and handed it to her. She took the second sister and handed it over to the oiled paper bag. It's maltose.
"Second sister, where did you buy this? I've always wanted to eat this, but I haven't seen it anywhere."
"Hey... this is made by my mother, and it is made from wheat ears picked up in the autumn harvest. You can try it soon, it will be delicious."
Lu Xiaoxiao took a small piece of maltose from the oiled paper bag and put it into her mouth, a sweet smell hit her. It was not sweet like candy, but sweet with a faint scent of wheat.
The taste is hard to describe, and only those who have eaten it can understand. In short, this kind of sweet maltose with wheat fragrance cannot be made by factory assembly line.
She had eaten this kind of maltose once in her previous life, and it was brought by a friend when she was traveling. She wanted to eat it all the time but never saw it. She never thought that she would have the opportunity to eat it now.
"Second sister, this candy is delicious, your mother's craftsmanship is really good."
"I also think my mother is very good. I heard from her that she learned it from an old lady in the village when she was not married. Since she married my father, she has no chance to do it. This time she saw the ears of wheat we picked. I just remembered this craft, so I made it for us to eat."
"Second sister, go home and ask your mother if you can help me make this malt candy. I will pay for the wheat, and I will pay for the manual work. Your mother will definitely not make the work for nothing."
"Don't ask, my mother is definitely willing to do it for you. You have always been helping our family. My parents have always felt sorry for it, and they have long wanted to do something for you."
Although the second sister said so, she must not let them work for nothing. Since they dont need money, its the same to give them other things when the time comes.
"Second sister, I will trouble your mother after the food is distributed."
"No trouble, then I'll go home first, and I have to go to school in the afternoon."
After sending away the second sister, Lu Xiaoxiao sorted out the remaining medicinal materials, and went back to the house to marinate the four pig's trotters that she bought yesterday at the supply and marketing cooperative. She planned to take them with the braised pork to the master and the others at night. The weather is cold now It won't go bad if left overnight.
Lu Xiaoxiao came to the cowshed at eight o'clock in the evening. She got up and saw the masters sitting in the room drinking tea and chatting, so she said, "Master, come quickly and see that I have brought you delicious food."
"We smelled it as soon as you entered the room, take it out and see what it is delicious." General Xie said.
"There are braised pork, braised pig's trotters and steamed buns. This time I brought more. Now that the weather is cold, I can eat them tomorrow."
The four people in the room swallowed unconsciously when they saw the meat on the table.
The few of them have always been carnivores. Since they came here, they have no chance or condition to eat meat. If it wasnt for Xiao girl who occasionally brought some over for them to eat, they probably would have forgotten what meat tastes like. Looking at the table now Can they not be greedy for the colored and fragrant meat on the table?
Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing when she saw the masters like this, and then said: "You can only eat a little to satisfy your cravings tonight, the meat is too greasy and eating too much at night is not good for your health and it is easy to accumulate food, so save it for tomorrow at noon .
"Understood, girl Xiao, we won't make fun of our bodies, so don't worry." Elder Fan said.
"Okay, then I'll go back first, I won't study here today, I'll go home and read by myself."
Seeing Xiao girl leaving, the four people in the room stopped pretending to be reserved, and each of them took a steamed bun. They didn't stop until they finished eating a plate of braised pork, and then they looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
