Chapter 59 Canned Food
The days were going smoothly, and no one came to look for trouble. In the blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Xi'er asked Ji Kang to hang two red lanterns and several firecrackers at the door of his house early on.

There is no Lantern Festival for Lantern Festival in the north, but Xier Space has glutinous rice. She processed a bag of glutinous rice flour and took it out of the space.

Several kinds of fillings have been prepared, including black sesame, five kernels, and fruit puree.

Mrs. Luo didn't know how to make glutinous rice balls, and Ji Kang couldn't help. She made [-] catties by herself.

Ask Ji Kang to give ten catties to the Xiao family, ten catties to shopkeeper Xu, ten catties to shopkeeper Su, and ten catties to Lao Ma, who will give it to him when he passes through town in the afternoon.

Except for the Xiao family, no one else had eaten it. She specifically explained the cooking time to them, and told them not to eat too much.

After Qiao received the Lantern Festival, she immediately asked the cook to cook a few of various flavors. After she and Xiao Jian tasted it together, they were all shocked.

A little girl who has never been to the south, the glutinous rice balls she made are so delicious, even better than the chefs in the south.

Xiao Jian said with emotion: "I really don't know how she made it, it's so delicious."

"It will be warmer in a few days. You can go to her house for a while. It is best to stay for a meal. Then I can go to her house to see my husband."

"I have the same intention for my wife"

It was the first time for Mrs. Luo to eat Yuanxiao. She liked the taste very much and ate ten of them in one go. At night, Xi'er stopped letting her eat them, fearing that her stomach would not be able to bear it.

Ji Kang doesn't like sweets, but he has eaten five or six. It seems that the taste of the Lantern Festival is still good.

Xi'er doesn't want to sell whatever she makes, that would be too tiring, and when the workshop is completed, she can only manage those few things.

Good things don't lie in many styles, only by striving for perfection can they be promoted and spread.

As soon as the fifteenth year comes out, the taste of the year gradually fades away, and people start normal work.

Although the ground has not yet thawed, some small merchants and hawkers, walking on the official road, began to sell things from south to north.

All the shops are open for business, but the villagers in the surrounding villages have not changed much. After the new year, the workers everywhere are not active, and they can only stay at home.

Only the people in Yangliu Village are not idle. Once the fifth day of the lunar new year is over, they start making sugar and planing medicinal materials.

Lao Ma approached the head of Yangliu Village, bought four homesteads from them, and entrusted the dental shop in the town to help them build houses.

Taking Xi'er's house as a sample, and building four houses at once, the steward of the dental shop was very happy.

As soon as the first month came out, the stewards began to deploy manpower.

A small construction team was dispatched to Yangliu Village, and a large construction team was dispatched to Luojia Workshop, and construction started at the two places at the same time.

The men who worked in the Luo family saw the Ma family building a house in the village, and their eyes were red. Their house had been lived in for decades, and it was dilapidated and out of shape.

One by one secretly vowed that they would work hard with the owner and build the house as soon as possible, so that they would live in the same way as the owner.

On February [-], the dragon raises its head, implying the growth of yang, the increase of rain, the vitality of all things, and the beginning of spring plowing.

However, the vegetable shed of the Luo family has not been removed. The vegetables planted in November have already been pulled out, the field has been turned over, fertilizer has been applied, and the second crop has been planted.

Lao Ma's family finally had some free time. He asked his three sons to sell goods, and he was either dragging his feet or going to Yangliu Village to look at his own house.

Every day, he looks forward to the early completion of the house, the early departure from Li Village, and the early living in a new house. This has been his dream for so long.

Mrs. Luo is also familiar with the people in the town now, she has nothing to go out for a walk, visits, and is not bored at home anymore.

Ji Kang also started school. During this period of time, he worked very hard and didn't come home until very late every day, just to meet the exam in mid-April.

Xiao Jian had already signed up for him, and as soon as Ji Kang took a break, he had someone call Ji Kang over to drink tea and chat, but in fact he was teaching him his experience and knowledge. Ji Kang was very moved.

Xi'er also opened the jar of soup and fruit that had been sealed for more than a month. Seeing that the surface was still fresh, she took out a spoonful and put it in a bowl to taste. full-bodied.

This shows that this business can still be done, what name should I choose?
Since they are packed in cans, they are called canned peaches and canned pears, which sound pretty good.

She sent workers to send five cans to Xiao's house like canned food, and sent a few more cans to old acquaintances Xu and Su.

In fact, this can can also be used as a side dish, especially for people who drink a lot. It is particularly delicious and has the effect of relieving hangover.

Years later, shopkeeper Su took down the storefront next to him, specializing in hot pot with bottom ingredients bought from Xi'er, and the business was still good.

He is different from shopkeeper Xu's restaurant, his restaurant requires several people to order a pot, and his hot pot is a small hot pot, which can be eaten by one person or two people, and is very popular among the people in the town.

As soon as the two received the cans, they immediately opened them for guests to taste, and received very good reviews.

I'm going to order it with Xi'er right away, but it's a pity that it's just for them to taste, and they don't make a lot of it, which makes them very annoyed.

After Qiao Shi received the so-called canned food, she tasted it with her husband, and they were very shocked.

If it develops like this, the northerners will not have to worry about eating fruits in winter. This method is too strange.

Moreover, Qiao felt that eating this way was more delicious than eating fresh fruit. It was incredible that this ugly and ugly little girl could turn decay into magic.

That afternoon, the Xiao family and his wife rarely walked out of the mayor's mansion together.

A lot of people saluted them respectfully. The two of them pretended to be strolling for a walk, but in fact they walked towards Luo's house involuntarily.

Qiao is wearing a veil. Although she has been pregnant for three months, she can't see her figure at all. Ordinary people don't dare to get close to her dress and her demeanor.

After living here for a long time, you will find that Huaishu Town has no local hooligans, and it is very stable. These are all thanks to the hard work of the town mayor generation after generation.

That Li Hu and his cronies didn't dare to come here, so small businesses and hawkers are willing to come to Huaishu Town to do business, even if they earn less.

"When, when, when"

"Who?"

"Sister Xi'er, I'm your sister Qiao"

As soon as the words were finished, the door opened, and Xi'er let the two of them in with a smile on his face.

"Why are you so rare?"

"The weather is fine. I took my wife out for a walk. I happened to come to your place, so I wanted to come and have a look."

"Welcome, welcome, sit inside"

In the living room, the two sat at the round table. Xi'er made tea for Xiao Jian, and went to the kitchen for Qiao Shi to use her homemade juicer to squeeze out a bowl of juice, which was mixed with some boiling water.

It's not summer now, and it's not good for a pregnant woman to drink cold food.

She sat across from the two of them, blinking her eyes wide, "It's rare for you to come to my house, why don't you have dinner at my house tonight?"

"Okay, that's what I wish for. I heard that your cooking skills are good." Xiao Jianhao agreed without hesitation.

Qiao felt that it was still early, and it was meaningless to just sit, so she said.

"Sister, the sun is shining today, take me to your vegetable garden?"

"OK"

Mrs. Luo was not at home, so Xi'er brought the two of them out, locked the courtyard door, and went to the vegetable field behind.

Xiao Jian and Qiao looked at the neatly arranged greenhouses, looking left and right curiously.

"This greenhouse cost a lot of money, didn't it?"

"Well, if you want to make money, you have to be willing, but these materials can be used many times, so it's not too expensive after all."

Xi'er took the lead and got into a warm shed. She and Qiao Shi were just right in size, so Xiao Jian had to bend over.

"Why is there no food?"

"This is the second crop, the first crop has already been pulled."

"Oh"

"What do you grow in your vegetable garden?"
