Chapter 618: Strange Candied Haws



When I finished chatting with Li Huaide, it was more than half an hour after get off work.

Jia Dongsheng took his bicycle and went to the market, but found that there was really no hawthorn for sale.

He had no other choice, so he went to the supply and marketing cooperative again, but strangely, there was nothing there either.

In desperation, he made up his mind to go to the countryside on Sunday. He didn't believe that he couldn't get hawthorn from his father-in-law.

That’s right, as long as it grows on trees, Jia Dongsheng believes that he can definitely get it by combining the efforts of his two fathers-in-law.

If my wife wants to eat, I have to arrange it for her, no matter how much trouble I have to go through.

On the way back to the courtyard, he suddenly thought of something. In later generations, candied haws have become more varied and can be made with more than just hawthorn and mountain red.

Why don’t I make some other flavors of candied haws for Qin Jingru?

Thinking about the various kinds of candied haws in later generations, Jia Dongsheng's eyes sparkled and began to shine.

Not to mention the candied haws made from common fruits such as bananas, oranges, and grapes.

Bread, grilled skewers, spicy strips, ice cream, chili peppers, even green onions, chicken feet, and whole chickens can be coated with rock sugar. In other words, any food can be made into rock sugar haws.

To put it in one sentence, everything can be candied haws!

The more Jia Dongsheng thought about it, the more excited he became. Then, he found a place to park the car, and his consciousness entered the space to check his warehouse to see what kind of things he had stored that could be used to make candied haws.

Of course, the most important thing is that it is sour.

Qin Jingru believed that she was pregnant with a son, and she particularly believed in the saying that sour boys and spicy girls mean sour food, which means she wanted to eat sour food.

I don't know whether it is a physiological problem or a psychological problem.

Afterwards, Jia Dongsheng rode his bike into an alley. When he came out of the alley, a bunch of things were hanging on the handlebars of the bike.

When he was making wine, he stored some wild grapes in his space. He originally planned to use them in case he wanted to make some dishes. But who knew that he didn't have time to cook the dishes and could use them to make candied haws.

In addition to wild grapes, there are apples, dates, pears, and a big watermelon.

The first time he did it, Jia Dongsheng didn’t do anything weird. But the next time, after he got hawthorn, he did something out of the ordinary.

Back at the courtyard, Yan Fugui was walking out with his hands behind his back. Seeing Jia Dongsheng, he squinted his eyes and smiled, "Dongsheng, why are you back so late today?"

Just as he said this, he saw something hanging on Jia Dongsheng's handlebars and couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss... Dongsheng, where did you get all this?"

"Hehe... Uncle San, I can't tell you this."

Jia Dongsheng smiled mysteriously and did not answer the question. The main reason was that he had no place to push it, so he could only pretend that he could not say it.

But he still explained: "Jingru has had no appetite recently. I made her something sour to eat before, and she liked it. So I thought of making you some candied haws."

"But I haven't been able to buy any hawthorns for a few days, so I asked someone to get some fruit back. I thought I'd use it to make some candied haws for him."

"Okay, man, I love my wife."

After listening to Jia Dongsheng's words, Yan Fugui gave Jia Dongsheng a thumbs up, gathered some words, and then rubbed his hands and smiled embarrassedly: "But Dongsheng, you see you have done so much, can you make one for me?"

"I wanted to give it to my daughter Jie Di to try as well."

Yan Jie Di was still young, a year younger than Bang Geng. When Jia Dongsheng heard that Yan Fugui was asking for it for his daughter, he smiled and said, "Hey, it's no big deal. I'll have Jie Di come to my place and get it later."

"Okay, thank you, Dongsheng."

Hearing Jia Dongsheng's agreement, Yan Fugui couldn't stop smiling. Although he asked for it for Yan Jiedi, how could Yan Jiedi finish a whole candied haws by herself?

Growing up in the Yan family, you must learn to share. Look, the other two kids can also eat it!

As for himself, the third aunt, and Yan Jiecheng and his wife, they were not within Yan Fugui's consideration. One candied haws was good enough for the children at home. It was impossible for him to be so greedy and ask for another one.

Although Yan Fugui is good at calculating, his calculations are always within a certain range and he will not take advantage of others.

This is why, even though the entire courtyard knows that he is calculating and stingy, he is still able to hold the position of the third uncle.

Jia Dongsheng pushed the cart away. Yan Fugui smiled and did not go out, but strolled back to the house.

The Yan family had just finished their meal. Each person had a steamed bun, a pickled vegetable, and a bowl of cornmeal porridge, a very thin porridge filled with water.

It was also because he had just finished eating that Yan Fugui planned to drain the water. Now that he had benefited from it, he thought he could drain the water later so that his stomach could be fuller for a while longer.

"Old man, why are you smiling so happily? What good news is going on?" Aunt Three was washing dishes. When she saw Yan Fugui coming back happily, she immediately knew that the old man had gotten the upper hand.

Every time Yan Fugui gets the upper hand, he always has this expression. How could Auntie, who has lived with him all her life, not understand this?

"I let you talk."

Yan Fugui didn't beat around the bush. He waved his hand and called Yan Jiedi, who had finished her meal and didn't go out to play, but just lay on the kang to save energy and avoid being hungry, to his side: "Jiedi, come here."

"What's the matter, Dad?" Yan Jiedi just entered the first grade. She had a fair and tender face and big eyes. She was quite cute, but a little thin.

There's no way. Growing up in the Yan family, I rarely see meat a year, so it's very difficult to gain weight.

"Your brother Dong just came back and planned to make candied haws."

Having said this, before he could continue, Yan Jiedi and the other two guys lying on the kang, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang, were also shocked and sat up and looked at him.

"Dad, Brother Dong is going to make candied haws?"

All three children knew about candied haws, but they had rarely eaten them since they were little.

Even Yan Fugui would buy some sometimes, but he would only buy one. The four children in the family would share it, so each child could only eat one hawthorn. They tasted so sweet that they could not get enough of them.

"Um."

Nodding, Yan Fugui's father looked at Yan Jie Di again: "Jie Di, I just told your brother Dong that when it's ready, I'll ask you to go get one..."

"Really, Dad?" Yan Jiedi immediately jumped up excitedly, muttering in disbelief: "Are you really going to give me one? A whole one?"

"Jie Di, we can't be so selfish."

Yan Fugui immediately began to teach the children: "The three of you stand in a row."

"oh."

Yan Jiedi also understood that it was impossible for her to get a whole one, but it was good to be able to have a bite!

"Our family is not wealthy, so any good thing should be shared by the whole family."

Yan Fugui began to give his three children education lessons...
