I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

Xu Congyi didn't expect that there was still a hole waiting for her to fill. Since Tang Wenhao asked this question, it means that pearls must be very rare in this era. Her brain was working quickly, "Oh, well, aren't my two brothers studying in the academy? The teacher told them about pearls, and they remembered it and told me when they got home. Aren't they round and slippery? I think what I made is very similar, so I named them pearls. What do you think, do they look like pearls?"

This statement was very convincing. After all, although he was a teacher in the village school, he had seen the world. The first time he heard about Pearl was when he was a child, it was the teacher in the private school who told him.

"Like! Like a pearl, this name is very unique! It will definitely be a hit if it is sold!"

Xu Congyi was a little speechless. This guy was really looking for business opportunities all the time. "I haven't even made it yet, and you haven't even tasted the pearl milk tea, so how do you know it will be a hit? Don't be too confident, what if it tastes terrible?"

"Impossible! It must be delicious!" Tang Wenhao leaned against the pillar in the kitchen with a smile, "Hurry up and make it, Miss Xu, I can't wait!"

Xu Congyi has rolled up her sleeves and started to make it. She first put the tea leaves into the pot and stir-fried them over low heat for a few seconds. After the tea fragrance came out, she served it out. The rich tea fragrance filled the small kitchen. Then Xu Congyi started to stir-fry the sugar. The sugar she used was the beet sugar cubes made by the Xu family. Although this kind of sugar cube is not as sweet as the white sugar on the market, it has a unique fragrance. It takes a longer time to stir-fry into syrup, so Xu Congyi did not stir-fry the tea leaves and sugar at the same time, otherwise the tea leaves would become mushy when the sugar is ready. She waited patiently until the sugar cubes were almost melted, and then poured the tea leaves in and stir-fried them together. When the sugar was completely melted and turned caramel color, Xu Congyi added warm water and boiled it for a while to separate the tea leaves and sugar that were stuck together. She stirred gently and poured the milk in to boil while the water was not boiling. The milk she used was unprocessed raw milk. Although it tasted good, it was not sterilized. High-temperature boiling was the simplest and fastest way to sterilize it.

The cups in the Xu family are all teacups, which are not very big and are too small for drinking pearl milk tea. So Xu Congyi simply used bowls to serve the tea. Each person was given a spoon so that they could drink and eat the pearls at the same time. After all, there were no straws at that time.

Tang Wenhao had nothing to do anyway, so he helped to put pearls in each bowl and then took them out and placed them on the stone table, while Xu Congyi was responsible for cooling down the prepared milk tea. The cooked milk tea was too hot, so Xu the hunter helped to carry the pot out of the kitchen and placed it in the yard. Xu Congyi scooped up the milk tea with a spoon and then poured it down from a high place. After a while, the temperature dropped. When it was still hot to drink but edible, he scooped it into bowls. Each person had a bowl first, and there was still more than half a pot left.

As soon as the milk tea was in his mouth, everyone was silent. Xu Congyi was quite puzzled. In the past, everyone was very supportive of the things he made. They would praise him for a long time after taking a bite. Why was everyone silent today? Xu Congyi was a little confused. He picked up the bowl and took a sip. The taste was not bad. It could be said that it was better than the milk tea shops in modern times. So why did no one say anything?

"Um..." Xu Cong looked around and couldn't help asking, "Why don't you say anything? Is it delicious or not?"

"It's delicious!" Li Dahua quickly responded to her daughter.

"Then why don't you say anything?" Xu Congyi was a little anxious, "Is it not to your taste?"

"No, no," Tang Wenhao took over the conversation, "It's delicious, but I can't describe the taste. It's a magical taste that can clearly taste the milk, tea, and sugar, but it blends well. I just can't find the words to describe it at the moment."

The rest of the Xu family and Tang Xiaowu also nodded in agreement. The milk tea was delicious, but it was a kind of deliciousness that was hard to describe. Tang Wenhao said what they wanted to express.

"Yes, that's what I mean. I've never tasted tea that tastes like this. It's completely different from the ordinary tea, but it has the fragrance of tea. It feels very strange, but it tastes very good," said Old Man Xu with a smile.

Xu Congyi felt relieved. It made sense. All the food she made before, whether it was fried spareribs, fried milk, or snacks like popcorn and roasted chestnuts, all had relatively simple flavors. Even the braised pork offal used spices to cover up the stinky smell of the offal and stimulate the aroma of the meat. It was normal for her family to find drinks like milk tea, which mixed milk and tea flavors together to form a new flavor, strange.

During the few minutes that Xu Congyi was thinking, Tang Wenhao and Tang Xiaowu had finished all the milk tea and pearls in their bowls. Tang Xiaowu was holding his own and his young master's bowls and was about to get a second bowl. Tang Wenhao also went to the kitchen to get the pearls without hesitation. Xu Congyi came to his senses and looked at the actions of the master and servant, and a sentence automatically emerged in his mind.

"If you are not a family, you will not enter the same family."
