Female Farming Pond Fish

Chapter 80 Making Candy

"Godmother! Godfather! I'm here again!" After breakfast, Chi Xiaotong dragged Tian Yu to Chen's house, knocking on the door and shouting.

"Coming, coming!" Father Chen answered with a smile and opened the door.

"Godfather! Hehe! I'm here to bother you again!"

"What are you talking about! Your mother is in the room, come in! Have you eaten yet?"

"I ate it, I ate it!"

"Godmother!" Chen's mother, Chen Chengyu, and Chen Chengshan were having breakfast.

"Have you eaten? Let's eat together!"

"I've eaten! You guys eat first!"

Father Chen also came into the room and sat down.

Chi Xiaotong pulled Tian Yu to sit aside and wait. She didn't let Tian Yu sit on the stool, but directly pulled him to sit in her arms.

Tian Yu straightened his body stiffly, not daring to raise his head.

Chi Xiaotong put her chin on his shoulder and whispered, "Relax, what are you afraid of?"

Tian Yu thought to himself: If you do this, who can relax?

I didn't dare to say that, I could only try my best to relax my shoulders and make Chi Xiaotong feel more comfortable.

When Chen's mother and father saw this, they looked at each other, said nothing, and continued eating.

Chen Chengyu glanced at the two of them and lowered her head without any expression. When he came back yesterday afternoon, his mother and father had already told her everything.

Only Chen Chengshan shouted frankly: "Sister Xiaotong! Why are you like this!"

Tian Yu was so frightened that he jumped up, but was pushed back down by Chi Xiaotong.

"What's wrong with me?" Chi Xiaotong leaned over and asked with a smile.

"You, you just bully my sister for not having a husband! Show off in front of us!"

"Pfft, hahahaha!" Not only Chi Xiaotong, but Chen Chengyu almost spit out a mouthful of rice. The two old men also had twitching mouth corners.

"Hehe, don't talk about me!" Chen Chengyu swallowed the rice with great difficulty and glared at Chen Chengshan.

"That's right!" Chen Chengshan muttered softly.

Chen Chengyu put down his chopsticks, and Chen Chengshan immediately shut up and started eating.

By doing this, Chi Xiaotong is showing that the two of them have a good relationship!

The goal was achieved, but Tian Yu felt uncomfortable again, so he put the man aside and sat him down.

"Tell me! What's the matter?" After dinner, Chen's father and Chen Chengshan picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and Chen's mother asked.

"That's right, I want to hire someone to help me make candy, and I want to find someone reliable! I came to ask you if you have any recommendations! I won't pay less!"

"Hey! It's easy to find someone! Use him whenever you want!"

"The sooner the better! Apart from the proportions, everything else requires people! The proportions are a secret recipe! You still have to do it yourself! Our house is small, and we don't have many raw materials, so for now, one person plus the two of us will be enough!"

"Hmm! Let me think about it!"

"What are you going to do? If you're in a hurry, I'll go and help you. As long as you don't mind!" Father Chen said as he walked into the house after cleaning up.

"What are you talking about! I'd love for you to help me! It's just that it will be a little tiring!" The last sentence was said while looking at Chen's mother.

If Father Chen is willing to help, Chi Xiaotong will be very happy. There is no need to worry about the secret recipe being leaked, as everyone can do it together.

That’s right, this job is quite tiring. I wonder if Chen’s mother would agree!

"That's a solution! If you're in a hurry, we'll go and help you first! Once everything is planned, we'll hire someone else!" Mother Chen said after thinking for a moment.

Chi Xiaotong understood. Since Chen's father had offered to help, Chen's mother naturally would not object. She also felt sorry for her husband, so she decided to just go with the whole family. If everyone could help, it wouldn't be so tiring.

Chi Xiaotong smiled, which made Chen's mother glance at her sideways, and then she stopped smiling.

Chen Chengyu was on vacation for a day, and several people wanted her to stay at home to rest, but she insisted on going with everyone.

The last group of six people returned to Chi Xiaotong's home.

After arriving home, Chi Xiaotong didn't hesitate.

I asked Chen Chengyu to help me move the malt to the kitchen. The kitchen was small, so I kept a lot of malt inside.

There was only one pot, and when I got back it was already on fire, and I started to steam the glutinous rice.

Then several people started to process the malt. There were not enough knives.

Originally, Chen's father wanted Chen Chengshan to go home and bring two handfuls. But Chen's mother saw that there was a lot of soaked glutinous rice and asked Chi Xiaotong: "Do you have to steam all this?"

Chi Xiaotong nodded and briefly explained the production method to the few people. It also means that only the ratio is important.

Chen's mother said directly that she and Chen Chengyu would move some glutinous rice home. There was a pot at home, so they could steam it together, which would be faster.

Chi Xiaotong thought about it and decided that this would be fine. Doing both at the same time would speed up the process and maybe we could finish it today.

Chi Xiaotong had to run between the two houses to see how the glutinous rice was steamed!

“Just steam it until done!”

"We don't understand, and we're afraid it'll get spoiled! Come and have a look more often!"

Chi Xiaotong was a little hesitant. It would be fine for her to stay at Chen's house and watch, but what about Tian Yu?

If you go to Chen's house yourself, Tian Yu will have to look after your own family.

"Wife, I'm fine!" Noticing Chi Xiaotong's gaze, Tian Yu leaned closer and whispered.

"Chengshan and I will stay!" Chen Chengyu saw Chi Xiaotong's concerns and took the initiative to speak.

Chen Chengshan also understood, and took Tian Yu's arm, saying coquettishly: "I will accompany my brother-in-law and let him teach me how to make candy! I didn't learn it last time, this time I want to learn how to make maltose! I will make it myself in the future!"

This is a solution, but: "Little fish?"

Tian Yu smiled and said, "Sure!"

Chi Xiaotong finally agreed and said to Chen Chengshan: "It's a good thing to learn more! More skills are better than less! You don't have to cook for yourself! We sell this at home, just come and get it if you want to eat. But don't eat too much! If you eat too much sugar, be careful of damaging your teeth!"

"Know it!"

Chi Xiaotong and the two elders of the Chen family started to move things.

First, move some glutinous rice. Father Chen starts to light the fire at home. Chi Xiaotong and Mother Chen move some malt. In the interval between steaming glutinous rice, you can chop malt. One person can watch the fire.

Of the three, it was Chen's mother who had to watch the fire. After all, the remaining two had to be chopped.

Mr. Chen is good at knife skills, so the cuts are very small and easy to chop.

Chi Xiaotong was not good at that. She just chopped randomly. She often chopped everywhere. This was the result of Chi Xiaotong's attention. Before, she would make a mess at home and clean it up afterwards.

Seeing Chi Xiaotong's knife skills, Chen's father shook his head and said bluntly: "In the future, you should find two men to do this job!"

Chi Xiaotong also knew that this kind of work should be done by men, while the heavy work should be done by women.

"Once your factory is built, I'll introduce you to someone who can do this!"

"That's great!" Chi Xiaotong was surprised.

Father Chen was helpless.

"Xiaotong, what happened to your husband the day before yesterday?" asked Chen's mother.

Father Chen also looked over.

Chi Xiaotong had thought about this before. There is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. There is no way that there is no news in a village. Such a big thing, the Chen family didn't say anything, the Li family didn't say anything. How could no one see it?

Therefore, Chi Xiaotong has already thought of an excuse.

"He just wanted to take a bath, but he was afraid that there would be people nearby, so he went too deep! And he can't swim!"

"You may be able to fool the villagers with this excuse, but forget about it with us!"

Chi Xiaotong laughed awkwardly. Chen's mother was too ruthless! Just expose it directly!
