At about one o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Qinghuan came to Wang Ailan's house. She saw that Wang Ailan was the only one in the house, so she asked Wang Ailan, "Aunt Wang, where is your youngest son?"
"You said Xiaofu, he went to school."
"Oh, do we have a school here?"
"No, regardless of the fact that there is a primary school in the village closest to us, and Xiaofu is studying there."
Shi Qinghuan nodded after hearing Wang Ailan's words, and then she asked Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, why did you call me here?"
"It's no big deal. Didn't you say you wanted to learn how to make canned persimmons from me? I happened to be making canned persimmons soon, so I thought I'd let you learn it. It's easy to make, and I'm sure you'll know it as soon as you see it. "
"Okay, is there anything you need my help with?"
"Yes, help me cut the persimmons into small pieces, and I'll wash the jars."
Shi Qinghuan nodded after hearing Wang Ailan's words, and then she picked up the knife and prepared to cut the persimmons.
But when her knife touched the persimmon, she remembered that all the persimmon soup she had eaten before was peeled, so she asked Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, do you want to peel the persimmons?"
"No, it's too laborious to peel that thing. Just cut it like that. The taste won't be much different anyway."
After Shi Qinghuan heard Wang Ailan's words, she thought of the method of peeling foreign persimmons that she had seen before, but she had never tried it before and didn't know if it could be successful.
So she said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, I know a way to peel the persimmons easily, but I have never tried it before. Do you want to give it a try?"
"What can I do? Tell me."
"Actually, the method is very simple, just blanch the persimmons in hot water for a while, and then put the persimmons in cold water, so that the skin of the persimmons can be peeled off easily."
After listening to Shi Qinghuan's words, Wang Ailan felt that it was very simple, so she planned to give it a try. It didn't take much effort anyway.
So she went outside to boil a pot of hot water and put a few persimmons into the pot.
A few minutes later, Wang Ailan saw that the skin of the persimmons had exploded a little, so she asked Qinghuan, the waiter, "Huanhuan, is it okay to blanche the persimmons like this?"
"That's it. Use a spoon to scoop the persimmons into cold water to cool them down, then peel the persimmons."
After Wang Ailan heard what Shi Qinghuan said, she did what Shi Qinghuan said. After a while, she peeled off the skins of several foreign persimmons, and she was immediately happy.
So she quickly said to the attendant Qing Huan: "Huan Huan, the method you mentioned is feasible. Look, it only took me a short time to peel off the skins of these foreign persimmons."
"That's good. You can heat the water in the pot and put some more persimmons in it."
Wang Ailan said hello after hearing Shi Qinghuan's words, and then she took it out to heat it up.
More than an hour later, Shi Qinghuan finished cutting the last persimmon, and then she said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, I have cut all the persimmons, what should I do next?"
"Put the sliced persimmons into a glass jar. Remember not to fill it too full, just fill it eight-quarters full, because sugar will be added later."
Shi Qinghuan said hello after hearing Wang Ailan's words, and then she and Wang Ailan put the cut persimmons into glass jars.
