Before Shen Changqing went to meet Mrs. Qi and the others, he secretly took out ten kilograms of white sugar, five kilograms of rock sugar, and two pieces of pork belly from the space. He also replaced the two wine tickets on his hands with wine, and took out a Just roast chicken and go back to eat at night.

Shen Changqing took Xiao Douding and Xiao Tuanzi for a walk, then turned back to the supply and marketing cooperative.

I bought snacks and candies for the two children, and a small skirt for Xiaotuanzi. Xu Hejing, who was following him, twitched as he watched, and hurriedly pulled Shen Changqing to say no, how could he ask for a bracelet and clothes at the same time. But she was held back by Shen's mother. She always remembered her sister-in-law's affection, and buying a small skirt for her child was also her intention as an aunt.

Shen Changqing did not forget to bring back two boxes of marbles for Xiao Huzi and Xiao Shitou, and gave them to Shen Changyu for safekeeping, and he gave them to his two brothers.

On the way, Shen Changqing secretly walked behind, disappeared for a while, and found a deserted place to smuggle out 20 big meat buns from the space.

Keep it at home and have it as lunch. After driving the ox cart, the family returned home in great force.

.........

After returning home, Shen Changqing dove into the kitchen and studied her canned hawthorns and hawthorn cakes.

Let’s make the candied haws first. Although this is the best thing to eat in winter, there are two little kids at home, so I’ll make this first to satisfy their cravings.

The most important thing in making candied haws is boiling the sugar! The fire will not work if the fire is too light. If the fire is too high, it will become mushy. When boiling the sugar, you should wrap it up while it is hot. If you hesitate for a moment, the heat will pass, and the sugar will become darker and mushy.

Shen Changqing took out some hawthorns, soaked them in water, removed the heads and stems, washed them, and then dried them.

The next step is to boil the sugar, which is still difficult for Shen Changqing. After all, it is a large pot burned with firewood. It is difficult to control the heat when doing this kind of delicate work. When he was in trouble, Shen's father came to help.

Turn up the heat, put a large bowl of water in the pot, put the sugar in and mix it with the water, simmer over low heat until dense little bubbles form on the surface, that's it now!

Shen Changqing rolled the skewered candied haws in the syrup, and then slammed it on the chopping board next to him. The good-looking shape was not thrown out, but the syrup collapsed on his clothes and hair. Father Shen's forehead was not spared.

Father Shen quickly pulled the candy off his forehead and stuffed it into his mouth, "Daughter, what are you doing?"

Fortunately, the weather was cool, so the temperature of the sugar dropped a bit as soon as it came out of the pot, otherwise I would still have blisters on my forehead.

It shouldn't be. Shen Changqing supported his chin with his fingers. This is what he does in the videos online. Try again!

Then he picked up a bunch of candied haws, rolled them in the syrup, and put them on the chopping board with a bang. Father Shen jumped out all the way. Why is this girl such a tiger? The candy flew with a bang. It's everywhere, it's a pity, it's a pity.

Just when Shen Changqing picked up another bunch and was about to try again, Father Shen stopped her and said, "Daughter, daddy, try it."

It's such a waste, this is a pot of sugar.

Father Shen had some strength, but he had never cooked before. According to what Shen Changqing said, there was a bang, and the candy flew out again, which made Father Shen feel bad, "Ruolan, Ruolan, come here quickly."

Mother Shen had heard the noise on the other side a long time ago. She didn't know what her daughter was doing, but now she heard someone calling her, opened the door and came in.

Pushing Father Shen and the child aside, Su Ruolan thought about it and tried two, and then she arranged the candied haws in a row in a decent manner.

Shen Changqing smacked his tongue in his heart. It's you, mother, so awesome.

Su Ruolan watched as the syrup cooled down and became hard and wrapped on it. The hawthorns were bright red and beautiful. Wrapped in syrup and sprinkled with sesame seeds, they looked delicious.

This candied haws of sugar has a moderate sweetness and sourness, and is not cloying at all.

"Douding, Mianmian, come quickly!" Shen Changqing shouted outside.

"Sister, you're done!" The mini version of candied haws made specially for Xiao Douding and Xiao Tuanzi. The skewers are small and there are only two hawthorn balls, which fit perfectly in the hand.

"Mmm, sweet!"

"Hiss, there's still a bit of acid in it!"

"Sister, eat quickly!" Xiao Douding did not forget to greet Xiaotuanzi.

The adults in the kitchen also took a bunch. Not to mention, the sweet icing with hawthorn balls inside was really delicious.

"Girl Qing is really thoughtful. This candied haws on a stick is so delicious." Aunt Xu Hejing said with a happy face, "I feel so happy to have a bite of this."

"Well, your aunt is right, Qingqing, can this really be sold for money? Do you have the channels?" Uncle Su asked directly.

"Yes, there is an acquaintance sister in the supply and marketing cooperative who has helped her a few times. If this thing is made well, it will not be a problem to find her."

Uncle Su nodded after hearing this, "This way, your life will be much easier. With income, you won't have to work hard to send letters to Chang'an."

Shen Changqing nodded repeatedly as she listened. She wanted to make money for her family so that she could take out things openly. Otherwise, she would always feel a little uncomfortable if she only spent her brother's money. Although my parents didn't say it, they must have been used to it for a lifetime, and they must have felt distressed.

"You guys eat first, I'm researching other ways to make it."

.........

The next thing to do is canned hawthorn. This is ready for easy storage. It is appetizing and satiates the craving. It is very convenient to eat and take on the go.

Remove the seeds from the hawthorn. Mother Shen volunteered to help with this step.

Rinse it several times in clean water, leaving this step to my aunt Xu Hejing.

Put a pot on the fire, add water to the pot, and boil the rock sugar according to the ratio of one pound of water to three ounces of rock sugar. Put the thoroughly washed hawthorns into the pot and cook over medium-low heat for about ten minutes. You can see that the hawthorn skin is slightly cracked. It's ready as soon as you open it. Let the canned food cool and then store it at room temperature.

As soon as the canned hawthorn came out of the pot, it received expectant looks from all directions. Shen Changqing smiled helplessly, "You have to wait until it cools before you can eat it."
