Chapter 104: Fried chestnuts, fried hazelnuts

Wen Xin then stopped and said, "Come on, confess."

Zhao Wanqing packed up her messed up hair and clothes, sat down, and said, "I'm dating Lin Dongze."

Wen Xin heard this and shouted, "What? When did it happen?"

Zhao Wanqing quickly said, "Oh, please keep your voice down."

Wen Xin quickly covered her mouth, her eyes still asking what was going on.

Zhao Wanqing explained, "He has said before that he has a good impression of me, likes me, and takes special care of me. When we were at school, he often helped me share my burdens or listened to my complaints."

"I can somewhat sense what he's thinking, but he never agreed. I'm a little worried about whether he is serious."

"He often brought things to see my parents. He helped them repair their house, chop wood and boil water, work, and also brought things like grain, malted milk, brown sugar, and cloth."

"As for me, I often receive tiaras, clothes, snacks, and cakes from him."

Speaking of this, he also whispered, "I secretly gave me gold jewelry once before."

"Every time I go to the mountains, he always protects me and lets me catch prey by myself. He never thinks that I don't know anything."

"I think he is a very down-to-earth and capable person, and I like him quite a lot, so I agreed to date him today."

Wen Xin listened and felt that it was really familiar. After thinking about it carefully, it turned out to be a plot point from her previous book.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine. Just make sure you're with him because you like him."

Zhao Wanqing smiled, "Xinxin, don't worry, I won't wrong myself."

Wen Xin still urged, "Don't bear everything on yourself. Only when you feel comfortable."

Zhao Wanqing nodded excitedly.

Wen Xin then asked, "By the way, have you told your parents about this?"

Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "Not yet, I plan to talk about it in a few days. We just confirmed our relationship today, and I thought we would talk about it after it becomes more stable."

Wen Xin nodded, "Okay, you just have to make your own plans. However, Wanqing, you must protect yourself."

Zhao Wanqing's eyes were almost red, and her voice was choked, "Okay, I understand, I will protect myself."

Wen Xin patted her hand and said, "Okay, I'm going back to bed. You should also go to bed early."

Back in the room, Wen Xin locked the door and entered the space.

She planned to sleep in the space today, a soft big bed, and here she comes.

When I woke up the next morning, I had no idea what year it was.

When I got out of the space, I looked at my watch and saw that it was already half past ten in the morning.

Go wash up quickly.

As soon as I took my things and went out, I saw the yard was busy.

Zhang Yingying was the first to see her going out and said happily, "Xin Xin."

Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to Wen Xin, who was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

She smiled awkwardly and said, "Good morning, everyone."

Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Morning, go and wash up quickly. I left a boiled egg for you. You can eat it by the way."

"Okay." Wen Xin didn't say much, so she went to wash up quickly.

After washing up, she ate the hard-boiled eggs that Zhao Wanqing left for her, and then walked to the crowd.

Asking in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Wang Yumei said softly, "We plan to get the chestnuts and hazelnuts we saved and fry them so that they are convenient to eat."

Wen Xin was very interested when she heard this, "Okay, then I'll pack mine too."

After saying that, he immediately went into the room and took his things out.

Among these people, Wen Xin probably kept the most. She had no family to send to, so she just sold most of them and kept the rest for herself.

After Zhao Wanqing and the others finished their work, they came to help Wen Xin clean up.

There is strength in numbers, so things were quickly sorted out.

"How to fry this?" Wen Xin asked doubtfully.

Zhang Yingying replied, "I don't know either, but Sisters Yumei and Qian do."

Wang Yumei and Li Qian acted as conductors, first washing all the chestnuts and soaking them in a big basin for fifteen minutes.

Then use a knife to make a cross on it.

Then put the chestnuts into the pot and stir-fry until the water is dry.

Add the salt first, then pour in the chestnuts and stir-fry evenly so that each chestnut is covered with salt. Heat evenly and stir-fry until the chestnuts open up.

When the frying is almost done, pour out the salt and rinse with water.

Pour in cooking oil and stir-fry chestnuts until fragrant.

Wen Xin liked sugar-fried chestnuts, so she added sugar and stir-fried the chestnuts for a while.

As for hazelnuts, it’s not difficult to make.

First put the sand into the pot and cook it over slow fire. Be sure to stir-fry it up and down while it is burning.

After the sand is heated, add the sugar and stir-fry.

After stir-frying for a few times, you can put the hazelnuts into the pot, but the heat should not be too high.

When frying, be sure to stir-fry up and down until the hazelnuts are halfway cooked, then take them out, otherwise they will become mushy.

When the hazelnuts are cool, sift out the sand and wipe them with a wet linen cloth. Finally, add three drops of soybean oil and wipe them repeatedly with a dry rag. At this time, the hazelnuts will be shiny again.

After everything was done, even Wang Yumei and Li Qian felt extremely sore in their arms.

But when I saw the results, I was still very happy.

The whole yard is filled with the scent of chestnuts and hazelnuts.

Zhang Yingying looked at it eagerly, "It smells so good, I really want to eat it."

Zhao Wanqing was also greedy. "Yes, I'm very greedy too."

The male educated youth in the front yard were even more exaggerated. They were all leaning against the wall, inhaling the smell and swallowing hard.

Wang Yumei said, "Quick, everyone get a jar or something to put your own. Don't eat too much at once."

Zhang Yingying ran into the house first and got the jar.

Zhao Wanqing and Wen Xin followed closely behind.

After everything was installed, everyone held their own chestnuts and hazelnuts, smiling silly.

Just as Li Qian was about to return to the front yard, she was startled by the people standing there.

"Hey, what are you doing here? You scared me."

"Hey, Li Zhiqing, we just smell the fragrance, no, the greedy people are getting up." Zhao Aidang touched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Yes, Li Zhiqing saw that it was inconvenient, so he told us how to do it, and we wanted to try it ourselves." Wang Aiguo said shamelessly.

"Okay, it's not difficult to do it, it's just..." When Li Qian heard this, she happily told them how to do it.

"Hey, okay, thank you Li Zhiqing." Wang Aiguo was so happy that he hurriedly called on others to get busy.

Li Qian carried her things back to the house to rest.

In the backyard, Huo Xunye didn't have anything because he came a little late, but he wanted to give his grandparents a taste.

He walked up to Wen Xin and asked, "Wen Xin, can you sell me some of this?"

Wen Xin looked back at him, "Okay, how much do you want?"

Huo Xunye said, "I want ten kilograms each."

Wen Xin happily took out the bag and packed it for him, "Here, these are just a lot. But don't eat too much at one time, as it will cause poor digestion."
