Then it is steamed, cooled and mixed with koji.
The whole process took her two days to complete, because it took five or six hours just to soak the grains on the first day.
After steaming on low heat, let it cool on the chopping board for more than an hour, and then mix it with koji, because there is no small package of koji powder or yeast powder at that time.
One day, Qiu Yuling had an idea and made her own koji powder balls and yeast lumps that were slightly larger than sheep dung balls.
The original song was made at that time. This original song is actually very simple. In the absence of rice wine and old song, this old song must have a source, right?
The kind of music that Qiu Yuling makes is an old song that can be regarded as the source, and she calls it the original song.
The ingredients include one pound of bran, one hundred and fifty grams of bran, fifteen grams of hot polygonum officinale, no gram of poria cocos, and three grams of licorice.
Grind all the ingredients into powder and mix them well. She used four ounces of water that time. Finally, knead them into small balls, put them in a basin to ferment, and put licorice at the bottom of the basin.
In fact, a plastic box would be more suitable, but when she made it in Qiu Zhuang, it was not convenient for her to find a plastic box, but she succeeded nonetheless.
Today she added the old koji. Now that the koji and the two kinds of grains were mixed separately, she put the basin aside and waited for two days to inspect the finished product.
When she was busy with these things, her mind was relaxing. Somehow, she always felt as if she had forgotten something.
He rubbed the spider and said, "Never mind. Whatever I can't remember is not important."
Soon, Qiu Yuling found out that she had forgotten something. She had forgotten to inform her two cousins to come for the exam.
On Monday, I suddenly saw my two cousins standing at the door, looking exhausted. "Hey, did you two come here from swimming? Why are you so wet?"
Li Yingtao spoke before her cousin, "Cousin, we're here to take the exam. We ran into Li Xiangyang from your team at the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday, and he told us about it."
Qiu Yuling looked at her cousin Yingfen from her uncle's family and asked, "If you go out to work, what will happen to the man child?"
Li Yingfen stiffened her neck and said, "It's just a try. Whether I can pass the exam or not is still uncertain. Besides, getting a salary is better than getting work points. Besides, it's not like I won't go back."
Qiu Yuling turned to look at Li Yingtao and said, "Second cousin, we can't keep both of you in the factory. The factory has more job plans."
Li Yingtao didn't care. "It's okay. Since we're here, we wouldn't come to see you otherwise. We wanted to ask you, do you know what the exam is about?"
Qiu Yuling spread her hands. "I really don't know. This is a question our deputy director asked. We haven't seen it before. He said it was for the sake of fairness. But anyway, it's just the knowledge points in the textbook."
You two have been teaching the kids, so it should be pretty much the same."
The two cousins looked at each other. The children they taught only taught themselves to recite quotations and recognize words and numbers. It seemed that they might just be runners-up.
Qiu Yuling saw that this was directed at her. Not to mention that there was no such thing, even if there was, she couldn't do it. However, she still comforted them and said, "Don't think too much. You two should go in quickly, wash your faces, comb your hair, and come with me to the factory.
Whether it works or not, since we're here, we have to give it a try."
Even though the factory was only recruiting two primary school teachers, fifty or sixty people came, including educated youth from nearby who heard the news and people who were relatives of the factory employees.
Nie Xuemin didn't even prepare enough papers. He only prepared thirty, thinking that this was more than enough.
"Xiao Qiu, there's still some time before the exam. Take these educated youth workers with you to copy a few papers for us. But after you copy the papers, you can't leave the meeting room before the exam starts..."
Qiu Yuling turned it down. "Deputy Director Nie, please ask a few more educated youth to come in and copy it. I won't touch it here. I have a report that Director Cao asked me to write on my desk. I can't delay submitting it to the leader."
Nie Xuemin looked as if he had suddenly realized something. "Oh, I almost forgot. Fine, you go ahead and do your work. I'll call Director Hu and the others in."
The Communist Party of China needs two teachers. Looking at his performance, he is about to take the teaching examination.
Since people were so cautious from the beginning, Qiu Yuling simply cleared herself up and didn't get involved in any of the mess.
Unlike her two cousins from outside, Li Yingfen didn't mind Li Yingtao getting admitted. It was better to have her own sisters than to have outsiders get the chance.
"Sister Fen, please keep your voice down. There are so many people here. It's not certain whether you can pass the exam." Please stop shouting. Can't you see that many people are looking at them?
Li Yingfen didn't care at all. What was there to be afraid of? "I didn't use any backdoors. If I don't pass, the worst that can happen is I'll just go back. If I do pass, it all depends on my own ability..."
Li Yingtao felt that her eldest cousin was becoming more and more like the other aunts in the team. She was always unscrupulous in what she said and did. It was no wonder that her cousin Yuling did not inform them in advance.
Fortunately, the test papers were prepared within the scheduled time and the door was opened on time to let the candidates in.
They were also worried that everyone's writing skills varied, and that the questions on the temporarily added test papers would be unclear, affecting their grades. Some people would complain afterwards, and the invigilator would read every question over again.
After the exams were over that morning, Qiu Yuling called her two cousins to the cafeteria to eat. She didn't ask them how they did on the exams, "Eat first. The results will be out in two days at most."
When she got the test paper back, she glanced at it. It had math on one side and Chinese on the other. It wasn't very difficult. The Chinese part also had quotations and poems for dictation. He didn't give any questions that could easily affect objective judgment.
Li Xiangyang came over with his rice bowl, "Section Chief~" and turned to grin at the other two sisters, "Sister Yingfen, Yingtao, how did you do on the exam?"
He originally only wanted to tell Li Yingtao, but who knew that she came here with her cousin, so it was not easy to hide it, so he had to tell it all.
The focus right now is whether Li Yingtao can pass the exam.
Li Yingfen didn't say anything this time, so Li Yingtao had to speak up. "I don't know. There are always people better than you. Let's wait until the results come out."
Li Xiangyang smiled. "Yeah, the exams are over, so I don't want to think about that anymore. Are you guys going back this afternoon?"
Li Yingtao said "hmm", "I only took one day off, I have to go back to work." No matter how bad the work points were, it was better than working in the fields. There were many people waiting to get a job, so she couldn't afford to be negligent.
Li Xiangyang finished his meal in a few mouthfuls and said, "It's okay. If there's good news, I'll send you a letter."
This conversation caused Qiu Yuling to look sideways frequently. If her eyes were not blind, she would have thought that Li Gouzi had taken a fancy to her cousin Yingtao.
After dinner, after seeing her two cousins off, Qiu Yuling called out to Li Xiangyang, "Brother Gou, when did this happen?"
Li Xiangyang looked around and said, "What happened and when?"
"Pretend! If you keep pretending, I'll go back and mess things up!"
Li Xiangyang hurriedly bowed with both hands, "No, no, dear Sister Ling, please don't, isn't it enough for me to say so?"
