In the afternoon, Xie Jiaojiao poured two basins of sugar cane water into the pot and cooked it in the same way.
Seeing that there was only one box, I found a few boards and put them together into a box to hold the boiled brown sugar.
I cooked two more boxes in the afternoon.
The sugar cane in the backyard has also been reduced by half.
Xie Jiaojiao packed the bagasse with something. Sun Ruhua asked her why she packed it. Xie Jiaojiao said that it would be used to smoke bacon during the New Year, and it would be delicious.
Sun Ruhua just smiled, "Farmers, where can you make bacon?"
Bacon is only eaten by rich people, but if her Jiaojiao wants to eat it, she can buy one or two pieces after the brown sugar is sold for money.
After working for two days in a row, the three people's hands were very sore, especially Xie Jiaojiao's. Her hands were shaking when eating. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold the bowl and break it.
Another day later, Xie Jiaojiao saw that the brown sugar in the box had completely dried. She divided the brown sugar into several pieces in the box with a knife, cut some, poured hot water and gave it to Sun Ruhua and Xie Zhiyi to taste: "Try it sweet." not sweet."
Sun Ruhua took a sip and nodded immediately: "It's so sweet, and it smells refreshing."
Xie Jiaojiao nodded with satisfaction.
Thinking of taking it to the town to sell in time for the next big market, Xie Jiaojiao and the others couldn't stop.
After working hard for several days, I finally boiled all the sugar cane into brown sugar.
Seeing so much brown sugar at home, Sun Ruhua felt that this day was promising.
Xie Jiaojiao was so tired that she didn't even want to move her fingers.
But Sun Ruhua collected all the sugar cane tips she cut in the backyard, thinking of planting them all in the ground before digging the sweet potatoes.
Xie Jiaojiao said there was no need to rush, just take your time later.
Finally the day came for the big market, and the family of three got up early.
Xie Jiaojiao prepared a kettle and brought the bowls for the three members of the family to eat.
Sun Ruhua asked, "Why are you bringing these? Be careful if they get damaged on the road." These were the only bowls and chopsticks used by the three people in the family to eat. It was an extra bowl, and Chen Hongju kept an eye on it and wouldn't let them take it away.
Xie Jiaojiao said with a smile: "It will be useful in the town!"
Sun Ruhua was afraid that the brown sugar would not be sold out in one day, but Xie Jiaojiao was not afraid: "Mom, take it all on your back. If this is easy to sell, you will have to wait for several days for the next episode."
Sun Ruhua thought the same thing, at worst, if she couldn't sell out, she would just carry it back.
Afraid that Xie Jiaojiao would be carrying too much weight alone, Sun Ruhua borrowed a basket from Mrs. Wang the day before.
The mother and daughter each carried some, and Xie Zhiyi just carried the kettle.
"Are you afraid of getting thirsty in town? Do you want to bring a kettle with you?"
Xie Jiaojiao said nothing.
The three of them got up early and spent an hour on the road. It was only daybreak when they arrived in town.
Sun Ruhua took out the steamed buns from her arms and everyone ate one.
After eating, there were more people in the market.
Xie Jiaojiao immediately set up her stall. When she came, she deliberately brought a medium-sized wooden board so that she could put the brown sugar on it for display.
After doing this, he asked Sun Ruhua for a penny and found a breakfast shop to buy a pot of hot water.
Back at the stall, Sun Ruhua said dissatisfiedly: "Do you still need to pay for this water?"
Xie Jiaojiao said: "Mom, you have to ask for firewood, right? Don't worry, the money will come back later!"
As soon as Xie Jiaojiao finished speaking, she stood up immediately: "If you are passing by, come and take a look. Authentic sugar cane brown sugar is suitable for all ages. It is moisturizing and nourishing the stomach. Women drink it to get better qi and blood, and men drink it to have full energy. ....."
Sun Ruhua hurriedly grabbed Xie Jiaojiao: "What are you talking about!"
Xie Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Mom, if you don't shout, there will be no business."
"But you can't say that, you're not married yet!"
Xie Jiaojiao felt a little speechless.
Just then a woman came up: "Is this brown sugar?"
Xie Jiaojiao hurriedly raised a smile: "Yes, yes, madam, would you like some? This is authentic sugar cane brown sugar. Drink it to replenish qi and blood, nourish your spirit, and beautify your face."
As Xie Jiaojiao spoke, she hurriedly poured a bowl for the woman: "Madam, why don't you try it? It tastes authentic, and it also has the fragrance of sugar cane."
Having just bought the water, Xie Jiaojiao immediately cut a small piece of brown sugar into it and now it has completely melted.
The woman was lost in the words "Mrs." on the left and "Mrs. on the right". She took the bowl and was about to try it, but when she saw that there was a gap in the bowl, she immediately put down the bowl in disgust and left.
Sun Ruhua looked at it and was confused: "Why did this good business just leave?"
Xie Jiaojiao sighed: "People think our bowl has a chip, otherwise..."
Sun Ruhua immediately turned her head away: "I have no money."
Xie Jiaojiao helplessly poured the brown sugar water in the bowl back into the pot.
After thinking for a while, I cut a small piece of brown sugar, took it to the breakfast shop, and asked the boss to borrow a few bowls.
Sun Ruhua took a look: "Brown sugar is such a precious thing, you...you..."
Xie Jiaojiao was a little helpless: "Mom, didn't you say you have no money?"
Sun Ruhua was so angry that she didn't want to talk to Xie Jiaojiao. She felt that this daughter was really a prodigal!
Then Xie Jiaojiao shouted a few more times, attracting some more people. The big guys looked at the brown sugar and said, "Why is your color different from the ones in this shop?"
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and explained: "This is authentic sugar cane brown sugar. Nothing is added. It is purely hand-brewed. It is much sweeter than ordinary brown sugar!"
The visitor didn't believe it, so Xie Jiaojiao immediately poured out two bowls of water from the kettle and handed them to the people in front of her: "Then try it, this is what I just soaked with brown sugar."
Two of the women in front of them took the bowls, and their eyes suddenly widened: "This is so sweet."
Another person agreed: "It still smells refreshing."
Xie Jiaojiao said with a smile: "As long as it has a fresh fragrance, it is the taste of sugar cane."
After that, he poured a few more bowls and let others have a taste.
Everyone nodded slightly after tasting it.
One of them couldn't help but ask: "How do you sell this brown sugar?"
