Chapter 131 Where to Go
"Yes!" Jiang's brows relaxed and suddenly became clear.
Tang Ning didn't care about this anymore. Because she promised Huang Desheng to give him a batch of syrup, she had to start making it now. There are many main ingredients for syrup, both sugarcane and sweet poles, but no one has grown sugarcane in Jiangnan. There should be sweet poles in the north, but she can't get it here. She can only find a kind of wild fruit with extremely sweetness in the forest instead.
The dog system said that this thing is called Gan Xing, which is a unique wild fruit in this era. It is her luck to be encountered by Tang Ning. With a few excellent quality Gan Xing, she earned tens of thousands of virtual coins and saved a lot of it hidden in the space warehouse.
The appearance of the sweet apricot looks nothing to do with apricots. It looks more like a green eggplant. After cutting it, the flesh will be scattered. It is all transparent particles with seeds. When crushed, a viscous liquid will flow out.
These liquids contain extremely high sugar content. It is no exaggeration to eat them raw. Just a few can make your throat choke. But if you take them back and crush them, you will have a strange smell. I don’t know if it’s because of the high sweetness. This is why sweet apricots are everywhere but no one cares about them.
It just so happened that Tangning knew some ways to make sugar. After experimenting for a while, he finally made pure sweet sugar cubes, similar to malt sugar. The last step was to syrup. Then add fresh osmanthus dried osmanthus to it and mix it with honey, and then you will get that jar of osmanthus syrup.
Now she just needs to remove honey and osmanthus and boil pure syrup. She can also make some osmanthus syrup, locust flower syrup, etc. I believe that the literati and scholars in Jiangnan will also like it.
Tang Ning was busy making sugar, and Jiang was also discussing the candidates to learn this craft. Tang Junsheng and Tang Zheng called Tang Zhong over and gathered in the room to discuss.
Tang Junsheng looked at Tang Zhong and said seriously: "I know you don't like doing wooden work, but I just didn't refuse. Now there is a chance in front of you. Should you learn how to make sugar with your sister or continue to do woodworking? You choose the same."
Tang Zhong looked at Tang Zheng subconsciously.
Tang Zhengdao: "Don't worry about me, just answer whatever I think."
Tang Zhong lowered his eyes, thought carefully, and said, "Dad, brother, I really don't like doing wooden jobs. I am willing to learn how to make candy with my sister."
As he said that, he secretly raised his eyelids and looked at his father and brother.
But both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Zheng gently encouraged: "Since you want to learn, study hard, and don't be half-hearted."
"If you are distracted, don't blame me for breaking your legs!" Tang Junsheng touched the stick as thick as his arm beside him. This was the first time he threatened his child with a stick.
Tang Zhong was so scared that he trembled and knelt down with a plop, repeatedly assured, "Dad, mother, brother, I will definitely study hard and study hard. I will carry forward my sister's craftsmanship in the future and let you live a good life, I swear!"
Tang Junsheng couldn't hold back and laughed and scolded: "Cow! Get up!"
Jiang covered his mouth and chuckled, looking at Tang Junsheng, "Since Ah Zhong is willing to learn, there is naturally no reason for this craft. It's just that uncle and my brother are also in trouble now. How do you think we should help?"
Tang Junsheng frowned slightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "This matter depends on the meaning of the elder brother and uncle. I have thought about what Jing Ming said before. Pingyuan Township is indeed not a place to stay for a long time. This year we are lucky, but this method can cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Once the flood is worse, let alone the fields, I am afraid that the foundation will be washed away. They came here this time with their household registration and road guides. They have the best choice, so naturally they have to choose the best place."
"Yes." Jiang nodded in agreement.
The two went to discuss with Mr. Tang and the Jiang family again, and told the truth about the situation in Pingyuan Township. Now Mr. Tang and Jiang Kun are in trouble.
"I originally wanted to stabilize and take Ayang and Axu to find a job in the accounting department to support the family, but now after hearing what you said, I don't know whether to make or make a decision." Boss Tang frowned, very contradictory.
Jiang Kun was even more embarrassed, "I can cook well in our place, but I don't believe it when I get here. The people here eat exquisitely and fancy food. I can't get it, nor can I make the taste that suits here. I haven't figured out where to go, and I don't know where to stay."
Seeing that they were unsure of their minds, Tang Lao Er suggested, "It's better to wait for Jing Ming and Aning to come back, and you can discuss it with them."
"We don't know what this child named Jing Ming has to do with you?" asked Boss Tang. He came in a hurry at the beginning, but they only knew that the child was a peddler, and they didn't ask about the details. Now they can't be curious.
Tang Junsheng immediately told the story of meeting the three of Qiu family. When he mentioned Qiu Jingming, he was full of praise, "Don't look at the child being younger than A Zheng, he is the top leader at home and outside the family. He has a flexible mind and broad knowledge, and has some skills. It is even more rare that he values friendship. At first we helped him, but later he helped us more.
Now, it is said that this child has saved enough money and can stabilize his family in the town or Suzhou City. But in order to repay our family with her own sister, he rented our house in the town and helped Aning and her child’s mother sell things."
Because Jiang often talked in Tang Junsheng's ear how much goods Qiu Jingming had bought and how many dates she had sold, Tang Junsheng now subconsciously believed that Qiu Jingming's move was to help them.
"So, this is a rare good boy, but the relationship has become a little weak, what a pity!" Boss Tang sighed while touching his beard.
Jiang Kun, who was standing by, asked in confusion, "What's going on with Aning? I found that this child is very different from the past few days, just like a different person."
Boss Tang nodded as well.
Tang Laoer said: "Aning is even more amazing, but we were busy in the past and didn't have time to pay attention to the children. We didn't even know what they did. If it weren't for Aning, we wouldn't have reached Jiangnan. People! Sometimes they were forced out, so it was said that Jing Ming's child would not have the ability to be today if he was forced to the point of nowhere."
"That's right." Jiang Kun nodded with thought.
A few days later, everyone was looking forward to the stars and the moon and finally let Qiu Jingming come back. The first thing he did when he returned to the town was to put down his things. After seeing his grandfather and sister, he took the things to find Jiang. He couldn't find Jiang. Instead, he met Tang Ning who had just returned from outside.
The two of them decided to go back to Pingyuan Township together.
Qiu Jingming originally wanted to leave a good impression in everyone's hearts, and even brought many famous snacks from Suzhou City to the door. As a result, everyone was stunned when they saw his enthusiasm.
"My uncles... don't be fine..." Qiu Jingming burst into cold sweat on his back, and his heart was full of twists and turns, wondering if his thoughts were known, or if there was any misunderstanding?
