Bianshanhan [farming]

Soon, as Chen's hands moved up and down, more and more candies with the word "Fu" were cut out.

Hearing that Li Qingwen said it was edible, Li Qingfeng and Li Zhengliang's uncle and nephew immediately stuffed one into their mouths, while the others kept looking at it with strange faces.

Maltose juice and noodles are not used much. The sweetness of this candy is not as sweet as pure sugar, but usually everyone eats less sweetness, and they still taste the sweetness from the small candy, showing a satisfied expression.

Before everyone could take a closer look, the sugar was almost boiled at this time, Jiang hurriedly scooped out the viscous sugar juice from the pot and put it in a shallow basin. The browned sugar liquid was so sweet and tempting that Li Qingwen couldn't help swallowing it. I drool a few times.

After boiling the sugar for so long, the smell inevitably wafted out. A few small heads appeared on the wall next door, looking eagerly at the Li family's house.

Children in ordinary families are taught by their parents that they are not allowed to ask what other people's food is for, so a few children were very greedy because of the sweetness, and they didn't ask.

The fire has been burning for so long, and the house is stuffy. When the family came out to cool off, they saw those little round heads.

"Hua'er, Qiao'er, come and eat some sweets." Mrs. Chen greeted.

"No need, auntie, we've already had dinner." The little girl's voice was thin and weak, and she felt a little unsteady upon hearing it.

Li Maoxian walked to the wall, stretched out his hand to a few or three little girls, "Come here, uncle will follow you."

After all, the little girls did not resist the temptation of the gluttons in their stomachs, and Li Maoxian took them to the wall one by one, and Mrs. Chen grabbed a handful of hot candies and shared them among them.

This time around the streets are all surnamed Li, and the neighbors to the west are also relatives, and Li Qingwen wants to call him Third Grandpa.These girls are the granddaughters of the third grandfather's family. They are of the same generation as Li Qingwen. They are about ten years old. They are thin and weak. I want to take it back and share it with my brothers and sisters.

It was getting dark, and there were three young children missing at home, and soon the neighbor's third grandmother shouted, "Hua'er, Qiao'er, Ya'er..."

The little girls were afraid that grandma would be in a hurry, so they hurriedly responded, Chen said: "Go back quickly."

The three turned around and ran away.

Originally, there were not many candies made, and one person could not share a few pieces. The adults just tasted it, and almost all the rest went into the mouths of several children.

Li Qingwen only ate one piece. The soybean flavor in the candy was stronger, with a lot of dregs, and it was a bit less delicate, but the taste was okay.

The syrup in the basin became a little colder, so Li Maoxian began pulling the sugar that was still hot without Li Qingwen's hands.

Soon it was dark, and the color change of the candy could not be seen clearly. Li Qingwen went up and pulled it, feeling that it was almost done, so he asked his mother to cut the long strips of candy.

After tossing for so long, maltose is finally ready!

I ate candy just now, but now I am not in a hurry. Li Qingwen even took out the scale at home and weighed it on a cloth. The chopped maltose weighed more than three catties, including those that were scooped out to make candy. This sugar yield is okay.

After saying it well, both adults and children tasted a piece, and their mouths were full of fragrance, and they all smiled. The maltose is much sweeter than the word candy.

With candy in his mouth, Li Qinghong said unclearly, "It costs seventy or eighty yuan to buy these candies in the county town."

Mrs. Jiang nodded hurriedly, "That's right, we are very good. Those wheat and glutinous rice are worth about [-] yuan. Well, the autumn harvest is coming soon, and the food may be even cheaper..."

If he sold it, he could earn thirty or forty renminbi today. The account was very clear, and Li Qingwen's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that the sugar in his mouth was a little sweeter.

Knowing that these maltose can be sold for so much money, Li Qingfeng retracted his outstretched hand. It was delicious, but his mother stopped taking the medicine last month, so he couldn't just ignore her just for one bite.

On the other hand, Mrs. Chen saw that he only ate one piece, and asked in confusion, "Feng'er, don't you like the candy made by Zaier?"

Looking forward to the stars and the moon these days, I finally made candy, so I only eat one piece?

"I just ate a few yuan..." Li Qingfeng said vaguely, "Let's sell it."

Li Qingwen gave the fourth brother the few pieces of candy he didn't eat. Li Qingfeng only kept two pieces, and he didn't want the remaining two pieces. Li Qingwen originally wanted to give the remaining two pieces to the third brother. The word candy he hasn't finished eating yet.

Seeing their brothers wanting so much, Mrs. Chen was very pleased, and divided two pieces for her son and grandson, and of course her daughter-in-law was also indispensable.

After tidying up, Li Qingwen was lying on the bed. When he turned over, he felt a hard object hit his head. He stretched out his hand and pulled it, and pulled a brown leather bag.The bag is not big, but there are quite a lot of things inside. If you touch it outside, there are various shapes, but you don't know what it is.

Li Qingwen didn't remember that he had such a bag, so he asked, "Third brother, is this yours?"

With his upper body bare, Li Qinghong poked his head and looked, "Zai'er, have you forgotten, this is your thing."

Li Qing shook his head, got up and went to the window, under the moonlight, opened the bag and took a look, inside was a small knife wrapped with cloth, a scythe, a whetstone, a small awl, and a three-finger thick bamboo tube...

No matter how you look at it, these don't look like his stuff.

"Don't you remember Brother Jiang Congjiang?" Li Qinghong asked tentatively.

Hearing this name, Li Qingwen immediately recalled the bright red blood dripping on his face, and murmured: "He was injured..."

Li Qinghong said: "He blocked the bandit's knife to save you, he is the savior of you and our family."

Li Qingwen's memory of this period was a little fuzzy, he didn't know if he was frightened or what, only those eyes were firmly engraved in his mind.

Seeing that his expression was in a daze, Li Qinghong said: "I heard from my father that you encountered bandits who robbed the road. Those people didn't get anything valuable, and they got malicious intentions to kill people. It happened that Big Brother Jiang was passing by, and he rescued you , and blocked a knife for you, otherwise you would be in danger."

In his memory, the knife was aimed at his head. If it wasn't blocked, it wasn't dangerous, or his head moved.

A little fear and gratitude subconsciously surged in Li Qingwen's heart,

Li Qinghong continued: "After being rescued, you held on to Big Brother Jiang's bag. He thought you liked it, so he gave it to you..."

Li Qingwen didn't say a word, he didn't even remember this thing, so it can be seen that the original owner didn't like it, he just grabbed it casually, who knew that the savior misunderstood it.

"Where is Brother Jiang?" Li Qingwen asked.

"Brother Jiang is serving as a government soldier in Hongzhou, but he doesn't seem to be in his hometown all the time. He goes to the capital to stay in the guard from time to time. He was in the capital when he replied to our father last time."

Jiang Cong is the savior of the Li family. Although Yangshu Village is far away from the capital and Hongzhou, they may rarely see their benefactor once in their lifetime, but they have a letter contact.

Li Maoxian valued love and righteousness. Not only did he keep this kindness in his heart, but he also told his sons and grandchildren that even if he could not repay the kindness, as long as the Li family continued to take root, the sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons would all know the benefactor of the Li family.

Li Qingwen took this matter to heart without needing third brother's advice.

I was tired during the day, and I thought about the thrilling journey for a while at night, and the result was that I got up late.

When Li Qingwen woke up, the sunlight passing through the window was dazzling, so it was getting late.

His body was aching, and he put on his clothes slowly, still wondering why the house was so quiet today.

"Zai'er, are you awake? The rice is still hot in the pot, eat it quickly." Jiang's voice came from the outer room.

The shriveled stomach made Li Qingwen quicken his movements, and he took the porridge out of the pot after wiping his face casually.

Jiang Shi originally wanted to bring him some pickles, but Li Qingwen waved his hand, "Sister-in-law, don't bother."

After speaking, he raised his head and poured the remaining porridge into his mouth.

Without his hands, Jiang took the bowl and washed it.

After finishing the work in the field, Li Qingfeng and Li Qinghong went to cut a basket of grass early. At this time, the two brothers and two nephews were sitting around a table, not knowing what they were doing. They looked very serious. Li Qingwen left None of them found out in the past.

Standing behind his eldest nephew, who was not as tall as the table, Li Qingwen saw the chessboard on the table at a glance without looking over his head, and was immediately surprised and pleasantly surprised.

In just a few days, his father actually made a game chess box!

The box and block are similar in color and should be made of the same wood with the same grain on them.The box is square, and the four corners fit very well with the corners of the wooden block. The size is also precise, and it looks very regular, except that there are no words or pictures on the wooden block, which is almost the same as the ones he used to play with.

"Father is really amazing!" Li Qingwen said excitedly.

Li Maoxian was packing things in the wing room, when he heard his youngest son's voice, he came out and asked, "Zai'er, do you think what Dad did is right?"

Li Qingwen nodded again and again, gave a thumbs up, and said, "That's right! Dad, your skills are really good."

Most of the men in the Li family are introverted, and they rarely boast as straightforwardly as him. Li Maoxian was a little uncomfortable, coughed and said: "Your father and I are just doing this, it's nothing, I can research this thing Talent is really amazing."

Feeling that he was one step closer to making money, Li Qingwen was very happy, "Father, is there anyone in our village who can paint? There really isn't one. You can find it in the county."

"Zai'er, do you have to draw those generals?" Li Maoxian said with a smile on his face, "Father hasn't read any books, and there are many things that we ordinary people can't know. The story you told is very exciting. Dad is worried about making mistakes What taboo..."

Li Qingwen understood immediately.

The story of the Three Kingdoms has not been circulated in this dynasty, but if Hua Rongdao and the five tiger generals collide with the dignitaries of the court, they are afraid that they will suffer unreasonable disasters.

There are too many taboos in this era, and many high-ranking officials and dignitaries will be condemned for violating taboos if they are not careful, not to mention them rural people.

Li Qingwen calmed down, and said: "Father is very considerate, you don't need to draw any generals, this game can also be called 'marry the daughter of a thousand gold'... The biggest one is Miss Qianjin, and the five next to it are father, mother, brother and sister. There are grandfather, grandmother, and the four children below are Qin, Qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting. If you can help the eldest lady get out of the bottom smoothly, you will be considered as married to the eldest lady."

The youngest son responded so quickly, Li Maoxian was very happy. After the change, he was very straightforward, so he didn't have to worry about it this time.

"It's good to change it. Writing is much easier than drawing." Li Qingwen said.

This is not a random modification. There were similar games in other countries in the previous life, so he can use them as a reference.
