Farmhouse vicious stepmother, she is super fierce

Chapter 191 The Mu family is going to get rich?

When I came out, I saw Da Zhuang coming out after tidying up the stove, and beckoned him to come over, and said: "Today, you can refine sugar at home, even if you are killed, you can't reveal a word, otherwise——"

Da Zhuang interrupted Mu Tianze: "Don't worry, my aunt trusts me so much, so naturally I won't say anything."

He also added: "For these two days, it's best not to let people in at home, lest people see something they shouldn't see."

Mu Tianze nodded, and the two of them glanced at each other, knowing everything in their hearts.

Seeing that it was still dark, the two simply moved the beets out again and continued to clean them by the well.

It wasn't until the moon came out, the rare good moonlight, the ground was completely white, and by the moonlight, they washed two large baskets of beetroot in the dark, and several of them washed up and went to sleep separately.

In the next few days, the Mu family repeated the process of washing the beetroot in the dark, and the next morning, Lao Yang was asked to explain the steps of squeezing the beet juice and then boiling the sugar.

After the syrup cooled and semi-crystallized, it was Shen Jiayan who operated it alone in the West Wing.

The Mu brothers and sisters and Da Zhuang are very self-conscious and never enter the West Wing.

Not only that, but the four children didn't go out either, they were just locked in the yard.

No matter how much discussion there is in the village outside, they just stay behind closed doors.

Even Li Goudan came to play with Mu Tianze, but was rejected, smelling the sweet smell in Mu's yard, Li Goudan was greedy.

He wanted to sneak in and see what delicious food the Mu family was doing, but Mu Tianze, who was always kind, sternly refused this time, saying that he had something to do at home and that he would look for him after the matter was settled.

Li Goudan didn't give up, walked around the courtyard wall of Mu's house several times, but went home disconsolately.

The villagers originally thought that Li Goudan could go in, so they could get some news, but who would have thought that the Mu family would not even let Li Goudan in.

The more he scratched his heart and lungs.

He also instigated Quan Shi and Bai Shi to go to Mu's house to inquire.

Quan's and Bai's are both smart people, not to mention, because of Shen Jiayan's purchase of beetroot from her natal family, Quan's got a lot of praise from her natal family, even the sister-in-law who was a bit disgusted on weekdays, now looks at her. They greeted her with a smile.

This is all relying on Shen Jiayan, and the whole family is not crazy, so why offend Shen Jiayan for these irrelevant wives?
The same is true for Bai Shi, although he was also surprised, but he still could bear it.

The Mu family closed the door to thank guests like this, and after ten days of tinkering at home every day, the sweet smell floating above and near their roof finally disappeared.

The Zhu family next door breathed a sigh of relief. The house that lived closest to them these few days was really miserable. Every day they smelled the tantalizing sweet smell, what they ate didn’t taste good, and they didn’t feel like doing anything.

A whole family from top to bottom, from old to young, if they don't swallow hundreds of times of saliva a day, then the day is useless.

It’s okay for adults, they can still endure for a while, a few children are really greedy, and when they smell the fragrance, they cry and want to eat candy.

The Zhu family has been forced to do nothing these days. They put a lot of prickly ash and chili peppers in their cooking, trying to use the spiciness of this food to wash away some of the sweetness.

As a result, the whole family ate dishes with prickly ash and chili peppers for ten days in a row. All the chrysanthemums were so hot that they couldn’t even squat out of the hut. There were several big fire blisters on their faces, sores and blisters in their mouths, and it hurt to drink water. .

What an inhuman torture!
The Zhu family all planned that if the Mu family kept wafting out the sweet fragrance every day, they couldn't bear it, they had to, they could only move back to the original old house for a few days.

How miserable!Who, like their family, bought a new house and was smoked away by the sweet fragrance not long after they lived in it?No one would believe it!
Those who live farther away are a little better, and the children in the family are also noisy.

Every day when it was time to boil sugar, the children in the village ran to the outside of the Mu family's yard in groups, standing still, their noses twitching non-stop. A large group of children were like this. Yes, I thought they were all bewitched!
Now that the Mu family has finally stopped being sweet, the adults in the village are relieved, but the children are a bit reluctant.

Shen Jiayan and the others naturally didn't know that the village looked like this when the door was closed.

All the beetroot juice is refined into sugar, and finally 120 five catties of white sugar, two hundred catties of brown sugar, and more than two hundred catties of brown sugar are obtained.

The several large tanks Shen Jiayan prepared in advance were all filled to the brim.

Looking at the sugar in those big jars, I was really excited. This is not sugar, it's all white money.

Shen Jiayan, who was in a great mood, locked the west wing room, and the first thing he did when he came out was to settle the money for Lao Yangtou and the Zhu family next door to use their cattle.

At the beginning, it was said that two large baskets of green grass were supplied every day. Didn’t this mean that there were too many people watching, so they stayed behind closed doors, and they had to pay for the green fodder.

First went to Lao Yangtou's house, in addition to wages, he also gave a green fodder fee of two cents a day, and thanked Lao Yangtou.

At first, Old Yang said it was fine and he was paid for it, but he was actually very satisfied, but seeing that the feed fee was not good, he couldn’t say anything about his refusal, so he accepted it after a few false pushes. up.

On the Zhu family's side, Shen Jiayan knew that he really wanted to sell candy, so he definitely couldn't hide it. After all, so much candy had to be transported out, and with such a toss every day, the next door smelled the sweet scent and had to guess a bit.

I just packed half a catty of black granulated sugar with a bad smell and went to Zhu's house.

This idea of ​​black granulated sugar is Shen Jiayan's last point. It's not enough for one pot. It's a defective product made by Zhuzi. Zhuzi didn't grasp the time, so it boiled for a long time, with a slight burnt smell, and finally got five or six catties of finished product .

Shen Jiayan kept it on purpose, intending to give it as a gift to the villagers, so as to give them the impression that his own craftsmanship is not good enough, and the candies he boiled have a bad smell, but that's all.

Lest everyone stare at their home!After all, to get rich, you still have to make it quietly!
It was only after arriving at Zhu's house that the Zhu family members looked at her with a bit of resentment in their eyes, making Shen Jiayan feel furious behind her back.

After asking Bai Shi, she found out, she couldn't laugh or cry, and hurriedly pushed the bag of black sugar to Bai Shi.

When Bai opened it, she was taken aback. She only felt that it was hot to touch. This half catty of brown sugar was too precious, so she dared not take it.

It was Shen Jiayan who said that it was made by herself, and it was not worth anything, so let Bai Shi try it too.

Only then did Bai hesitate to accept it, and asked cautiously, what are you doing at home these few days?
Shen Jiayan pointed to the bag of brown sugar: "That's what I'm tossing about! When I was at my mother's house, I looked through the miscellaneous books at home and saw how to refine sugar. I just thought it was fun and remembered it in my heart."

"I haven't thought about it for so many years. It's not because I saw the beetroot planted in our village that I vaguely remembered it. Sister-in-law, you also know that our family doesn't have any income to make a living, and we have an extra mouthful. I don't want to try to earn some food. Yes, life is really hard! What's more, my eldest brother studied with his master before, and because his father left, it is deserted! I don't want to do anything else, I just want to be able to support the eldest son to study again, and in the future, I can be a scholar or something. I am sorry for his father!"

"That's when I gritted my teeth and thought about giving it a try. If God blesses me to do it well, it's fine if I can help my elder brother to study! I never thought that God would open his eyes, maybe he would take pity on us orphans and widowed mothers, but let me succeed in the experiment. Although it is not as good as the ones sold in towns and counties, it can still be imported, why don’t you try it, sister-in-law?”
