Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 344: Extracting Honey

Gu Qinghan originally wanted to stay and help Xu Yuan extract honey, but was driven back by Xu Yuan.

If I keep helping like this, maybe I can stay for dinner before going back. Then I might as well just stay here.

Xu Yuan could guess that Village Chief Gu and Aunt Xu must be confused and might even have some opinions about Gu Qinghan, who was not at home every day and stayed at other people's homes whenever he had free time.

There were many Japanese sweets, and Xu Zhi and the other two were holding a small piece of honeycomb and eating it in small bites. They leaned against the window and poked their heads out to look at the two people playing in the yard.

Many people frowned: "Second sister, eldest sister and brother Gu are so childish."

Guozi: "Brother Gu can laugh, too."

Xu Zhi: "Sister and Brother Gu are really a perfect match!"

"What are you three doing?"

After Xu Yuan sent Gu Qinghan off reluctantly, he turned around and saw three heads peeking out of the wide-open window of the kitchen.

"Hahaha, I see this window is a little dirty, let me wipe it." Xu Zhi took the rag beside him and dusted it, then slowly moved away from the window.

"I wonder what my second sister is doing. I'm going to find her." Guozi laughed, then stepped off the stool and slipped away, talking a lot.

Manyu was much more direct and replied loudly: "Sister, you and Brother Gu are so childish."

Xu Zhi: Shocked face

Guozi: Before I could reach out to cover his mouth, the words had already been spoken, and he held his forehead with his hand.

"What's childish? Xiaoduo, come down quickly."

He is not even as tall as the windowsill, so who knows which stool he will "favor".

"Oh." Xuyun slowly stepped on the bench, jumped to the ground, and touched Lai Fu who was crawling over with his tail wagging. After eating and drinking, his energy and spirit were restored, so he loved to follow Xuyun.

Xu Yuan walked into the kitchen and glanced at Xu Zhi and Guozi, "Did you all see it?"

Xu Zhi and Guozi nodded guiltily, their eyes full of gossip, and their mouth corners couldn't bend down.

But he was afraid that his elder sister would see him and he would feel embarrassed, so he did not dare to look up.

"Okay, now that I know, I know. Anyway... uh, you guys can do whatever you want." Xu Yuan appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually panicking inside. He thought he was thick-skinned, but still not as thick-skinned as that man. He should not have blushed.

After saying that, Xu Yuan took his tools and left the yard.

"Second sister, why do I feel that eldest sister is a little shy?" Guozi said softly.

"Shh, don't let big sister hear it, save some face for big sister."

Xu Zhi tugged at Guozi's sleeve and gave him a warning.

As for the many people who were playing around with Lai Fu, forget it. It would be useless to give them any warnings.

"Sister, are you going to extract honey? I'll come and help." Xuanyu saw Xuyuan going out with the tools, and he carried Lai Fu out of the kitchen.

"Xiaoduo, you'd better sit aside and watch. You can't help with this job." Xu Yuan smiled and took a clean small shovel and pressed the honeycomb honey. The honeycomb honey turned into a golden liquid and flowed through the filter into the wooden basin placed below.

Xuyuan moved quickly and the two buckets of honeycomb were filled. Only honeycomb was left in the upper bucket. Xuyuan put it into a wooden barrel and put it aside. In addition to being a traditional Chinese medicine, the honeycomb has other uses.

"Sister, why are we still keeping these residues? It would be better to just burn them." Many people muttered.

The next second, "Hey, sister, why are you twisting my ears?"

"I can give it to you. This is Chinese medicine. In addition to Chinese medicine, it has other uses. Don't burn it."

"I know." Xuanyu rubbed his ears and muttered.

Xu Zhi took out a piece of cut gauze, and Guozi took out an empty bucket.

"Xiaozhi, put the gauze on top, and use the wooden spoon to scoop out the honey and filter it."

The next task of filtering was given to Xu Zhi and his team. Xu Yuan moved the racks of fish hanging in the yard to dry to the other side.

This time, Xu Yuan did not use the fish he got from Village Chief Gu to make fish balls. After all, it was a bit troublesome and Xu Yuan did not have time to do that, so he made all of it into dried salted fish.

As for fish balls, they are ready-made, so just buy them.

Village chief Gu was determined to expand the fish ball business. He had already hired many villagers, found a vacant land in the village, built a small workshop, and was proceeding in an orderly manner according to the method taught by Xu Yuan.

"Sister, the honey is already very clear and has no impurities. Does it still need to be filtered?" Xu Zhichao asked Xu Yuan.

At this time, Xu Yuan had already turned the fish on the shelf over and over again, applying special seasoning on each fish.

Hearing this, he stopped what he was doing, put down his things, walked over and took a look.

It is very clean indeed.

"Okay, find some bottles and jars to put them in."

With honey, the barbecue will have an extra flavor.

……

By the time they finished their work, the sun had already set.

Another fulfilling day.

The two brothers Pan Dahai and Pan Xiaojiang knocked on the door of Xu Yuan's house.

"Sister Xuyuan, we've brought you some delicious food." Pan Dahai shouted into the yard at the top of his voice.

"What's delicious?" Xuanyi opened the gate of the courtyard with a "bang" and walked towards the two brothers Pan Dahai and Pan Xiaojiang with excitement on their faces.

"Hey, this is it." Pan Xiaojiang grabbed two tied-up frogs from the backpack and carried them in front of Yiu.

"Frog!" Many said in surprise.

"Brother Ahai, Brother Xiaojiang, where did you catch them? I'll go with you tomorrow."

Xuanyi took the frog from Pan Xiaojiang's hand and invited the two of them into the house.

"No need to come in. We are just giving the frogs to you. Let's go." Pan Dahai waved his hand and walked away taking Pan Xiaojiang with him.

"Who's coming?"

Guozi walked out of the kitchen and glanced at the gate, but saw no one.

"Brother Dahai and Brother Xiaojiang, brother, they sent us frogs."

Manyu was walking while swinging the two tied frogs. The frogs' limbs were stretched straight and they moved occasionally. Manyu found it very interesting and reached out to touch them. They moved every time he touched them.

"Sister, do you want to eat this tonight?"

Xuyuan heard many voices coming in and looked up.

"No, we have fish. We'll get the frog tomorrow."

The fried fish was stewing in the pot. Xuyuan lifted the lid and quickly put the frogs in the basket and tied it up. He consciously moved a small stool and stepped on it. He smelled the fragrance in the air and his stomach rumbled unconsciously.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan waved his hand and said, "Xiao Duo, go set the table and prepare the dishes. The food will be ready soon."

Many people nodded, "Okay, big sister."

Lai Fu smelled the fragrance and ran in from the small nest built in the yard, wagging his tail and humming at Xuyuan.
