After talking it out, the two drove back home.
It was already late, so after returning home the two of them began to divide the work and cooperate with each other.
Huo Tingzhou assigned Jiang Si a job of peeling oranges, while he himself cleaned the glass bottles and put them in the pot.
You don’t need to steam it for too long, just steam it for two or three minutes after the water boils.
By the time he had finished disinfecting all the glass bottles, Jiang Si had already peeled half of the orange.
While peeling oranges, Jiang Si also imitated an article she had read and made a few small orange lanterns.
Find a few candle ends and put them inside to add a touch of romance!
At this time, Huo Tingzhou also sat opposite her with a piece of fruit, ready to start peeling the pear.
This time they bought crispy pears from Anhui Province.
I heard from the salesperson that this variety of pear has a thin skin and small core, a crispy and sweet taste, and no pear residue, making it perfect for canning.
Huo Tingzhou picked a medium-sized pear from the basket, peeled it and handed it to Jiang Si.
"Eat a pear first and take a rest."
Jiang Si didn't hesitate. They were busy for the whole afternoon and didn't even have a sip of water.
After taking it and taking a bite, Jiang Si's eyes instantly curved into crescents.
"This pear is so sweet, try it."
As he spoke, Jiang Si had already put the pear to his mouth.
But Huo Tingzhou actually leaned back at this moment.
He dodged so quickly that Jiang Si was stunned.
This person usually even eats his own leftovers, but now he takes the initiative to feed him.
He doesn’t eat? He doesn’t eat!
Perhaps because her eyes were too shocked, Huo Tingzhou smiled helplessly, "Wife, pears cannot be shared."
If it were an apple, he would have taken a bite of it long ago.
Jiang Si didn't think this would be the reason. "Okay then."
Good thing, this pear isn’t that big, and she finished it in a short while.
The two of them worked in the living room for more than an hour and finally finished the preliminary processing of the pears and oranges.
Next, cut into pieces and remove the orange peel.
Then put the chopped pear and orange segments in a glass bottle, add a spoonful of crushed yellow rock sugar, and then pour in boiled water mixed with Lingquan water.
Finally, steam it on high heat for ten minutes.
When steaming, the bottle cap should not be screwed too tightly, otherwise the bottle may explode easily.
Just put the bottle cap on.
Heat the bottle for ten minutes, tighten the cap while it's still hot, then turn it upside down on a chopping board and let it cool.
When Grandpa and my third uncle and their family came back, there were already dozens of cans of food on the table at home.
"Why...why did they buy so many cans?" Everyone was extremely surprised.
Jiang Si: "We are not buying it, we are making it."
"Do it?" Now everyone was even more surprised.
Mother Huo stepped forward and asked, "Si Si, why do you make so many cans?"
Jiang Si explained the reasons why she had prepared in advance.
Hearing that the two had spent the whole afternoon making canned food, Huo's mother felt extremely distressed and quickly pulled Jiang Si's hand.
She was sweating profusely, and all ten of her fingers were stained orange.
Now I feel even worse.
After that, Huo Tingzhou was scolded.
"You little brat, I've already given you some money and notes. If you want to buy some gifts in return, go to a few more supply and marketing cooperatives. You can buy any canned food you want."
"Look how tired Sisi is!"
Huo Tingzhou: "..."
From the moment his wife decided to make canned food, he knew this would be the result.
So he simply shut up and took the blame.
Jiang Si was embarrassed to let him take the blame, so she spoke up quickly when she saw that something was not right.
"Mom, it was me who suggested making canned food."
But Mrs. Huo patted her hands at this time, "Si Si, you don't have to speak for him."
She may not know about other things, but how could she not know that her daughter-in-law is not good at cooking?
So ever since Jiang Si returned to Beijing, Huo's mother never let her go into the kitchen.
When she went to propose marriage a few days ago, she said in front of her in-laws that she would definitely treat Si Si like her own daughter in the future.
