Chapter 425 Making Loquat Syrup
"Ah Zhou, what do we do now? Should we go in and expose Feng Ya Rou?"
Zhou Wenbin learned from the old lady that Feng Yarou had recognized a godmother and often came here. Pei Feng, that fool, was a cuckold without even realizing it.
"Uncle, let's go back first, and we'll talk about it when we get back."
Pei Shizhou listened to the sounds coming from inside the room, his face flushed. This Feng Yarou was utterly shameless.
At the same time, she mocked Pei Feng in her heart for choosing such a fickle woman who had even harmed her own mother.
"it is good"
Zhou Wenbin looked at his nephew with amusement; he looked every bit the innocent, pure-hearted man.
"Ah Zhou, don't be shy, sex between men and women is perfectly normal."
My nephew is so innocent, surely he hasn't only been holding hands with Xia Yichu after dating for so long!
"Uncle, this isn't about love between a man and a woman, it's shamelessness! Feng Yarou has completely fooled Pei Feng and even harmed my mother."
The smile on Zhou Wenbin's face vanished instantly when he thought of his sister dying at the hands of this scumbag and despicable couple.
"You're right. We now have something on Feng Yarou. Should we use this to threaten her into producing the evidence we have?"
"Uncle, don't worry. First, have someone keep an eye on Feng Yarou. When she comes next time, find a way to notify Pei Feng and have him come here to catch her in the act."
Pei Shizhou wanted to know what Pei Feng would do after he found out about Feng Yarou's betrayal. In short, he wanted to see Pei Feng in agony and despair.
"it is good"
The two left the village and drove away. Pei Shizhou had just arrived home when the phone rang. He quickly ran to answer it, calculating the time; Xiao Chu should have arrived by now.
"Hello, is this Xiao Chu?" Pei Shizhou said gently.
"Yes, we've arrived in Shenzhen."
Her uncle didn't go home with them. He went straight home after getting off the plane, saying he had to hurry back because he had to go to work the next day.
"Okay, take good care of yourself. Call me if anything happens."
"Okay, take care of yourself too. Bye."
Lin Xingyuan was watching Xia Yichu intently, making her too embarrassed to talk to Pei Shizhou much.
"Okay, I'll call you again after school tomorrow."
"OK"
Xia Yichu hung up the phone and said to Lin Xingyuan, "Brother, I'm going to pick up the cats and dogs. The house has been uninhabited for days and it's all dusty. Could you stay and clean it up?"
"Okay, do you need me to come with you?"
"No need, I can go by myself."
Xia Yichu dared not let Lin Xingyuan follow her. She went to Kyoto in a hurry and had no time to take care of the cats and dogs.
She simply put the cats and dogs in her spatial dimension, which contained the cat and dog food she had bought. Now she would find a place to release them from the dimension, and then bring them home.
Xia Yichu went outside, found a secluded corner, and on a whim, released the cat and dog from her spatial dimension. The two little guys, who hadn't been out for a while, excitedly circled around her.
Xia Yichu gently comforted them and took them home. On the way home, they saw an old lady selling loquats.
Remembering how she hadn't made pear syrup for Wu Mingli last year because she was too busy, she decided to buy more pears to make loquat syrup now that her older brother was here to help.
"Auntie, how much are the loquats?"
"Girl, it's four yuan a pound, all homegrown, and very sweet."
The old lady greeted them warmly. Xia Yichu looked at the loquats; each one was plump and golden, with an enticing color. These loquats were of good quality; they would definitely make a good syrup.
"Auntie, if I buy more, can you give me a discount?"
"Little girl, how much do you want to buy?"
Xia Yichu saw that the old lady's loquats weighed no more than forty jin (20 kg), and she thought she should take them all! She would boil a lot and then share some with everyone, since each person wouldn't have many bottles.
"I'll take them all, ma'am. How much of a discount can you give me?"
The old woman hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "If you want them all, I'll charge you three yuan and fifty cents per pound."
Loquats can't be kept for too long. She'd been selling them here all morning and only managed to sell five or six pounds. Everyone thought they were too expensive and only bought a few to try.
She only has this many loquats from her five trees, and besides, the fruit shops are selling them for more than she does. It's already past 2 PM, and if she can't sell them soon, she can't keep them for many more days.
"Sure, but you'll have to help me carry them home, I can't carry that many by myself. My home is nearby, not far, about a five or six-minute walk."
"Okay, no problem."
The old lady readily agreed. She had spent over an hour picking out her produce from home that morning before coming here to sell it, so a few minutes' walk was nothing.
Xia Yichu was overjoyed and quickly asked the old lady to weigh it to see how many kilograms it weighed.
"The girl weighs a little over 35 jin (17.5 kg) in total. Each basket weighs about one jin (0.5 kg), so let's deduct the weight of both baskets and give you 33 jin (11.5 kg). Wait a moment, let me calculate the price."
The old lady had never sold so many at once before, so she couldn't calculate the price immediately.
"Auntie, that's 115.5 yuan in total. Ten jin cost 35 yuan, so three 35s make 105 yuan, and then three 3.5 yuan make 115.5 yuan."
"Yes, that's right. Little girl, you're very clever."
Xia Yichu smiled and paid the money, and the old lady followed her home carrying loquats.
Along the way, the old woman kept praising her for being smart and generous. When they were almost home, Lin Xingyuan heard the commotion and came out to help. After carrying the loquats into the house, Xia Yichu began to think about how to make loquat syrup.
After the old lady left, Lin Xingyuan asked, "Xiao Chu, did you buy so many loquats to make loquat syrup?"
Last year, Xiao Chu brought some loquat syrup to the army. Lin Xingyuan took it, soaked it in water, and drank it. He felt great after drinking it and was full of energy every morning during that period.
"Yes, big brother, come and help."
"Okay, Xiao Chu, what do we do?"
"First, wash the loquats, remove the pits and peels, and cut the flesh into small pieces."
"OK"
The two of them worked all afternoon to cut the loquat flesh. Lin Xingyuan, who was helping out, asked curiously, "Xiao Chu, how do you make this loquat syrup?"
Xia Yichu patiently explained, "Boil the loquat pulp in water until it's soft, then strain out the pulp, add rock sugar and simmer slowly until it thickens. Oh no, I forgot to buy rock sugar."
"I'll go buy it. How many kilograms do I need?"
Xia Yichu had been waiting for Lin Xingyuan to say this. If she wanted to add the space water to the decoction, she had to get him away first.
"Twelve catties of rock sugar should be enough, brother. I'll get you the money."
"No need, I have some."
After saying that, fearing that Xia Yichu would give him money, Lin Xingyuan quickly left.
Seeing Lin Xingyuan leave, Xia Yichu began to busy herself at the stove. Soon, the house was filled with the sweet fragrance of loquats.
"Brother, could you go to the market and buy me twenty more bottles? I can use them to store loquat syrup later."
Lin Xingyuan had just put down the rock sugar when Xia Yichu asked him to go buy something again. This time, Xia Yichu really didn't mean it; she had forgotten about the bottle and only just remembered.
"it is good"
Watching her practiced movements, Lin Xingyuan couldn't help but exclaim before leaving, "Xiao Chu, you're really amazing!"
Xia Yichu playfully stuck out her tongue: "That's right, I know a lot more."
"My Xiao Chu is the best, I'm going to buy a bottle."
"Okay, sure."
