When Zhang Chengchuan returned to town, Liu Guiying and Zhang Chengyu also chatted a lot. She didn't plan to eat at her daughter's side at noon. When she saw her son came back, she would go home with him.

When Zhang Chengchuan and Liu Guiying entered the city, Chen Xiayue was also preparing to try at home to see if the wheat could be processed into maltose in a processing workshop, and then she would use the maltose to boil the fragrant fruit jam.

Sugar is not only sugar cane, beet, etc. can be done, right? Maltose is also very good. Chen Xiayue used the farm's processing workshop to make wheat into maltose.

Chen Xiayue also knows that white sugar is better for making jam, but isn't it hard to buy white sugar now? Her farm has not unlocked the crop of sugar cane, so she can only make it with maltose.

When the rest of the Zhang family were not at home, after Chen Xiayue used the farm workshop to make maltose, she peeled the fragrant fruit and marinated it with sugar for a while. After it was marinated, she put it in a pot and boiled it into a sauce.

Fortunately, there is a lemon tree in the village. Chen Xiayue picked two lemons before and came back and added a little lemon juice when boiling the jam, which can play a preservative role.

Chen Xiayue boiled the jam for about 20 to 30 pounds in the whole morning, and kept the rest of the fruit to eat fresh.

I don't know if the flavor of fragrant fruit is similar to that of pear, and whether it has the same effect of moisturizing the lungs and relieving cough as pear.

It's autumn now, and I don't know if I will cough when the weather is cold. I don't know if this fragrant fruit jam can relieve cough like autumn pear cream and rock candy Sydney.

After all the jam was boiled, Chen Xiayue looked at the pot in a daze, how should she explain where she got the sugar to make the jam?

Forget it, the rest of the Zhang family are not at home very much. In the evening, she said that she made the jam herself in the afternoon, saying that the sugar was bought when she asked Zhang Chengchuan to go to the county.

Although there are loopholes in this explanation, Chen Xiayue can't do anything about it. Zhang Chengchuan will help her lie.

Of course, it is impossible for Chen Xiayue to send all the jams of twenty or thirty pounds to Zhang Chengyue and the others.

After boiling the jam and putting it in a clay pot, Chen Xiayue started cooking, but today she did not cook brown rice porridge, but polenta.

Her farm still grows a lot of corn. She uses the processing workshop to process it into cornmeal and corn ballast. The cornmeal can be made into wowotou, corn buns and flour mixed with flour to make other pasta, and the corn ballast can be cooked into porridge. .

Chen Xiayue added a lot of water after cooking the porridge, and then left it alone. She went out to look at the vines of the fragrant fruit that Zhang Chengchuan cut back yesterday, deal with it and plant it well.

It is also good to grow a fragrant fruit at home. After all, the yield of fragrant fruit is quite high, and the taste is also very good. It is much more convenient to eat after planting a plant.

Chen Xiayue found a place in the yard to dig, then cut a long fragrant fruit vine in half, and planted it in the hole he dug.

When Chen Xiayue was planting fragrant fruits in the yard, Zhang Chengchuan's mother and son came back. When he came back, Zhang Chengchuan saw his daughter-in-law squatting next to the house and planting something.

"Xia Yue, I'm back!" Zhang Chengchuan shouted.

"Come back?" Chen Xiayue raised her head after hearing the voice, and after seeing Zhang Chengchuan, covered the soil and stood up.

"Didn't you go out today?" Zhang Chengchuan looked at her, and at the fragrant fruit seedlings she had planted, feeling a little distressed that she was so stuffy.

"Isn't this not familiar with the village? I will go out to play when I become familiar with it." Chen Xiayue said with a smile.

In fact, she quite likes living like this. Although she doesn't have a mobile phone or computer now, doesn't she have a farm system? This can also pass the time.

Moreover, it is true that she is not familiar with Yunhe Brigade. There are not many people she knows. Who should I turn to when I go out to play? talk about what? She is not used to it.

"That's right, but don't be bored in the future, find more people to play with." Zhang Chengchuan was also very worried that his daughter-in-law would get sick from being bored like this. What's worse for the body?

"The autumn harvest is almost here recently. Let's talk about it after the autumn harvest." Chen Xiayue said with a smile, she should be busy recently, why don't she go out to play with others, or else it will delay other people's work?

Zhang Chengchuan didn't say anything, and there really was no one who was free recently.

"Actually, if I can follow..." Zhang Chengchuan looked at the direction to the south, where the troops were stationed and there were family members.

Because some family members of the military do not have jobs, they have nothing to do other than to be busy at home and clean up the land they have cultivated. If their daughter-in-law can play with them, they can also pass the time.

However, the family area is also nearly ten miles away, and those family members rarely come out, so Zhang Chengchuan just thinks about it.

And some family members are not very willing to contact them, these local rural people, he just thought about it and didn't take it to heart.

"What did you cook today?" Liu Guiying, who had put the flour brought back by her son in the house, asked after she came out. She smelled a sweet smell.

"I cooked some polenta, let's eat polenta at noon." Chen Xiayue smiled. In this era, Chen Xiayue couldn't have prepared a lot of fish and meat for them. It would be good to eat whatever you want to fill your stomach.

Liu Guiying didn't say anything, and it wasn't completely until noon, and it would take some time before going to work in the afternoon, so she continued to see what needed to be done at home.

Chen Xiayue pulled Zhang Chengchuan over and whispered to him, "I made the jam, but I didn't have so much sugar at home before, so I'm not very good at explaining it."

"Then how did your sugar come from?" Zhang Chengchuan was also curious.

"It's maltose made from wheat. I use the maltose made by the processing workshop on the farm. It's very sweet and delicious." Chen Xiayue said.

"Maltose? Wheat can also be made into sugar?" Zhang Chengchuan, a pure southerner, really didn't know that wheat could be made into sugar. Even if he heard about maltose, he didn't have the brains to think that it was made of wheat.

It's not surprising that he doesn't know that wheat is not grown in the South either.

"Well, I made a lot of maltose, and after boiling the jam, I didn't run out of maltose." Chen Xiayue said.

"It's okay, you can eat the sugar whenever you want." Zhang Chengchuan rubbed her head and said, "The jam is ready. I'll go to the county tomorrow to send the jam."

"Going tomorrow?"

"If it's later, the autumn harvest will be very busy, so I don't have time to ask for leave." Zhang Chengchuan said.

"That's fine." Chen Xiayue had nothing to say.

As for whether to give the jam back to her family, Chen Xiayue thought about it and she could give out five pounds to her family. Anyway, there are about 30 catties of jam, 15 catties for Zhang Chengyue and others, 5 catties for her parents, and the remaining 10 catties are left to eat at home.
