After rebirth and divorce, I took care of my children and became rich

Chapter 18 Fried Tea



When she got home, she said, "Oh my God, it's almost seven o'clock at 06:30." She quickly went to pick up her children. Chen Hong poured the day lily into a basin and carried half a cup of tea to her old house. "Xiaobao, mom is back. She went home with her." Chen Hong shouted as she entered the old house. Yu Yang came to greet her, "Mom, did you go up the mountain?" "Well, I came to pick you up right after I came down from the mountain. Where is your grandpa?" "He's in the house. How about eating here tonight?" Father Yu replied after hearing the conversation between Chen Hong and Niang. "Don't eat here, it will get dark in a while. This is the tea I picked on the mountain. It tastes very good. I will give you some. You can fry it and keep it for drinking when you have time. I think your skills will be compromised. It tastes better than the ones you buy.”

"You have gone into the mountains. I have heard from the villagers that there are good tea trees in the mountains. But now the forest is dense and the mountains are not safe. No one can go in. You are so brave to go so far!" Father Yu said to Chen Hong . "I'm young and walk fast, so I found the tea tree without thinking how far it was. I heard from Yu Hai that you had fried tea before, so I sent it to you to fry it yourself. Can these produce two kilograms of tea?" Chen Hong did not dare to say that he Just go for the good things in the mountains. "But not only that, after frying, you can get more than three kilograms. I learned this when I was young, when I went to Rizhao with people from the county to visit and study. I was still in the production team at that time! You can take some back after frying. "

"You can keep it and drink it after it's fried. I still have half of the beetroot at home, and my husband and I have half of it. We'll fry it in the evening, otherwise it'll be a shame to cover it up. It would be nice if we could find it and pick it back in the morning." "Then take your child back. Come home, we have to fry tea leaves in the evening."

Chen Hong took her children home. She took out a piece of meat from the freezer and put it in the water for a while. Then she washed her hands and cooked rice. Then she went back to the house and arranged for her children to wash their hands and watch TV.Chen Hong went back to the kitchen and took out the oyster mushrooms and day lilies picked today. First, soak the day lilies in light salt water for 15 minutes, then tear the mushrooms into small florets and soak them in light salt water. Prepare the auxiliary ingredients: ginger, garlic, shallots, chili.Prepare the ingredients: light soy sauce, oyster sauce, vinegar, sugar, salt, white cooked sesame seeds.Take out the day lily, remove the stems and cores, blanch the water in the pot, drain out the cold water and put it on a plate, heat oil in the pot, cut the minced garlic, chopped green onion and pepper into pieces. Put it into a mixing bowl, pour in hot oil and fry until fragrant. Pour the sauce over the day lily and mix well. The first cold day lily dish this year is ready.

Then the meat slices were fried with mushrooms and rice was served together, and the two waitresses started the meal. "Son, it's late today. Mom didn't make soup. Drink some water!" Chen Hong poured a glass of water for her son and said, "Mom has cooked a lot of food. If I make soup, I won't be able to eat it." Her son's thoughtfulness impressed Chen Hong. Hong is happy.I almost forgot to pick up the eggs today, and the chickens and ducks were only fed once.After dinner, Chen Hong went to the backyard to pick up eggs. The water in the sink was dry and the chicken food was finished.Although the chickens and ducks were not fed well, we still picked up 14 eggs and 6 duck eggs, which was the most we picked up during this period. I don’t know if it was because of the timely feeding yesterday or because of the water in the space.It's already dark, and I can't see any changes in the vegetable field under the light. I can only observe it tomorrow.

After sending her son to sleep, Chen Hong finished cleaning the house and started working at night.After careful observation, Chen Hong found that her small space still had the basic function of keeping fresh. The mushrooms, orchids, day lilies, tea leaves and several small trees that were taken in today were all very fresh. What they put in there still looked the same now. , no change.Chen Hong is a little worried. Plants planted in the space will not stop growing. If so, this space can only be used as a mobile fresh-keeping warehouse!

Chen Hong found a stack of large bamboo sieves in the utility room and put them into the space. She also took two large water tanks, a bucket and a shovel and put them into the space. She returned to the main room and removed a small pile of mushrooms.I collected mushrooms while watching TV, throwing weeds and leaves into the trash can, and putting clean mushrooms on a bamboo sieve.After cleaning up a pile, take out another pile, fill a bamboo sieve and put it into the space, then continue to replace the bamboo sieve and put the selected mushrooms.It took me an hour to clean up the mushrooms. After picking them up, I filled 4 large bamboo sieves. They were all given space and will be moved to the roof to dry in the sun when my son is not awake tomorrow morning.

Seeing that my son was sleeping deeply, I quickly went into the space to work.First, dig two holes for the old tea trees and plant them ten meters apart. Then plant blueberries, honeysuckle, and polygonatum. Orchids are planted next to the river near the tea trees. This area will be planned as a shrub planting area in the future.Plant the chestnut tree by the river on the back of the tea tree, so that the height and height are separated and the growth is not affected by each other.Later, we will plant the collected good varieties of fruit trees and flowers along the river.After planting, I watered it again with water from the river. I'm just waiting to see the results tomorrow.

He put the tea leaves into the water tank, went into the kitchen, added water to the large iron pot and washed it carefully twice. There was no oil left in the pot. He found a new bamboo cooking broom from the kitchen cabinet and lit the wood stove. Heat the bottom of the pot and use low heat to make tea. Do not use hard firewood. Use fine firewood to burn evenly over low heat.Chen Hong stretched out her hand to carefully feel the temperature at the bottom of the pot. She felt that it should be more than 30 degrees and she could start frying tea. She held a few handfuls of fresh leaves in both hands and threw them into the pot. It was estimated that it should be about ten kilograms. She wanted to practice frying in a pot first.Chen Hong flew with her hands to grab the tea leaves, grabbing, turning, scattering, kneading and throwing them.

Touching the hot tea leaves, the familiar feeling came back. As if she had muscle memory, Chen Hong instinctively stir-fried the tea quickly, watching the tea leaves become green, take shape, and change color. With the speed of Chen Hong's shadowless hands, A pot of tea leaves was finally fried, and with the bursts of tea aroma, the green tea leaves came out of the pot.Finally, the tea leaves were dried on the bamboo dustpan. Chen Hong pinched a few, smelled them, and chewed them in her mouth. The taste was very fragrant. Although it was summer tea, the quality was no worse than the tea leaves sold for thousands of dollars in supermarkets. .

The pot was getting hot, so Chen Hong added firewood to the bottom of the stove and used a shovel to put a thick layer of charcoal ash on the firewood to control the fire.Add a ladle of water to the pot to adjust the temperature, clean the pot, and feel that the temperature is suitable. About fifteen kilograms of fresh leaves were fried in the pot. She repeated the stir-frying technique again and again. Chen Hong continued to stir-fry until four in the morning, and finally cooked it. The tea leaves have been roasted.Chen Hong's hands were sore that she felt like her arms were no longer her own. She couldn't remember exactly how many pots she had cooked. She only saw three large dustpans hanging in the kitchen, and three large dustpans were stored in the space. This was a night's work. Results.After leaving it to dry in the kitchen, Chen Hong used a rice cooker to cook rice and mung bean porridge, then went back to the house to take a shower and go to bed.

Chen Hong got up on time at six o'clock. There was a breeze blowing this morning and the weather was very cool.Before the child woke up, Chen Hong got up first, moved the grapes out of the space and put them in the utility room, then went up to the roof and took out a bamboo sieve to dry the mushrooms. She left seven or eight kilograms of oyster mushrooms to give away, and dried the rest. Finally, she dried the mushrooms through the bamboo sieve. They are all occupied, and the fungus can only be scattered on the cement roof.

I washed, fed the chickens and ducks, made breakfast, washed the clothes I changed out in the early morning, and then called my son to get up for dinner.The little guy drowsily washed his face and brushed his teeth and sat at the table: "Mom, didn't you sleep last night? I didn't touch you in the middle of the night." It's time for the son to separate beds. After the house where his father lived before is tidied up, give it to him. The son moved him to a small bed to sleep in. The boy slept in the same bed as him. He always turned over in the middle of the night and always wanted to check if his mother was there. This was a habit that children were afraid to develop when they went fishing at sea and did not come back at night. "Mom went to bed, but she slept a little late. The mushrooms picked in the mountains yesterday had to be selected, and the tea leaves had to be fried overnight, otherwise the mother would be spoiled after carrying them back from the mountains." Chen Hong explained to her son.

"Then you should ask me to work together. I will choose mushrooms." The son was a little unhappy. "Children can't sleep late, otherwise they won't grow taller. You can help mom with the work today. Mom couldn't finish it last night, so she just waited for Xiaobao to help me!" "Really? What kind of work? I can definitely do it well. ." The son was happy now. "After dinner, you first go to grandpa's house and tell him that mom will not go out today, so you will help mom at home. By the way, bring some mushrooms to your grandpa. I picked them all last night and let your grandpa fry them."

"Okay mom, I promise to complete the task." Yu Yang was very happy to hear that his mother arranged for him to work.After dinner, I went to the old house to deliver oyster mushrooms.Chen Hong put the grapes into a large plastic box and placed them under the jujube tree in the yard. She took two small mats from the house and placed them next to the plastic box. She also prepared a large clean plastic basin for the foreigner to come back and let him pick the grapes. , my son can do this job well.Before her son came back, Chen Hong took a broom to the roof to sweep the cement floor clean, and then sprinkled day lilies on the roof to dry.

Take out two large water tanks from the utility room, wash them in the yard, scald them with boiling water, and hang them to dry in the yard.Go into the kitchen and put all the tea leaves on the bamboo sieve into a large sealed bag, clean up the kitchen, and remove the tea leaves in the space to dry.After working hard, I sit under the tree and rest while picking grapes. Wearing disposable rubber gloves, I pick out the grapes that are full and pest-free and put them into a large plastic bucket. The remaining fruit stems and bad ones are infested with insects. Yes, throw the grapes that have not grown into the trash can.

After picking it for a while, Yu Yang came back with a bound. Seeing his mother working, he walked to her side and sat down, "Mom, I'll help you pick it." "I'm just waiting for my son to help me, but you have to wash your hands." Put on the gloves again." Yu Yang went to wash his hands and put on the gloves, "Mom, the gloves are a bit big." "I have to make do with them. We don't have the size for children at home. Just take your time and pull them on. There's no rush anyway. Want to try something delicious first? These are wild grapes picked by mom from the mountains." Chen Hong picked up a big, purple peel and put it in her son's mouth, "Mom, it's very sweet! Shall we make grape juice? Don't wash it. Do you want to wash it?" Yu Yang asked curiously.

"We make wine. The grapes grow deep in the mountains. They are not sprayed with pesticides and are not dirty at all. It is easy to get wet when washed and destroy the white frost. All you need to do is wash and disinfect the wine-making tools. ." Yu Yangduan sat upright on the pony and carefully grasped the grapes. Chen Hong looked at his stern and meticulous appearance and smiled softly. The two of them could live peacefully in peace.

After being busy for a long time, the mother-in-law finally got 300 kilograms of grapes. Chen Hong asked her son to go out to play with his friends for a while. It was really difficult for the child to sit for three hours. If it were her child, she would not be able to sit still for an hour.I packed my son three or four kilograms of wild grapes in a convenience bag and sent him off to play in the mountains.
