Chapter 521 521. Cutting tea leaves and tea bricks

After they left, the seventh cousin pondered: "Tantan, is your mother still picking tea leaves on the mountain? Give her a call and show me a few tea branches when she comes back."

"Okay."

Song Tan sent the message directly without asking the reason. Only Zhang Yanping did not miss any changes in the family and quickly asked: "Seventh cousin, why do you need the branches?"

The seventh cousin did not hide it: "I thought, if the tea leaves grow well, the old branches and old leaves must be fragrant as well. It would be a pity to just cut them and throw them into the ground or use them as firewood."

"Try it first when you come back. If it tastes good, you can make it later -"

"I see!"

Zhang Yanping clapped his hands fiercely: "Is it right to make tea bricks or tea foam?"

The cheap tea bricks, or the minced tea leaves included in scented tea, are made by crushing and stamping old branches!

Seventh Cousin:......

He looked complicated, and then sighed: "Yan Ping, Tan Tan asked you to be responsible for selling things. You are really a professional counterpart."

"I just want to use dried tea sticks to smoke some duck and pork. You're welcome. I also want to crush it and make tea bricks... Shen Wansan doesn't even know what to do!"

Zhang Yanping guessed wrong and did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he smiled openly and said: "I dare not compare, he is the richest man after all, and I am just an ordinary worker. My salary is still two thousand five thousand!" "

Even the food is great. Not to mention getting a salary, he wouldn't be willing to leave even if he wasn't given a salary.

And because eating is so satisfying, other material desires are reduced. With his current salary, apart from paying phone bills and game cash, there is absolutely no use for it...

If this continues, saving 20,000 yuan by the end of the year will not be a dream!

The seventh cousin just made a few jokes, and after saying that, he fell into deep thought: "But you are right, the tea is so good, the tea bricks and tea powder should also be very fragrant... Let me study it."

When it comes to matters in the kitchen, the seventh cousin has always been resolute.

Wu Lan came back with a basket at half noon, and sure enough he pulled out a lot of tea branches, and a camellia the size of a quail egg had already bloomed on one branch.

The snow-white petals are slightly closed, revealing the pale yellow stamens inside, which is particularly fresh and moving.

This surprised Qiao Qiao: "Mom, are the tea trees about to bear tea seeds? If they bear tea seeds this year, can I still pound tea oil?"

Pound tea oil——

Song Tan also fell into memories.

In her childhood, this was a skill that every child in the village knew.

Get a small wine cup and an unused pen, preferably one with a lid. Peel the ripe tea seeds from the mountain, smash the milky white round fruits into the wine cup, and use the pen to keep pressing downwards...

Over time, the mashed tea fruit will turn into a dark brown translucent shape, and a layer of yellow tea oil will precipitate on it.

When she was young, classmates in her class often compared each other like this, and even in class and after class, they would keep messing with their pens...

After all, in the countryside at that time, there were not as many types of entertainment as there are today.

Who would have thought that it was Qiaoqiao's turn, and since he had no playmates, he actually did the same thing.

"Okay." For Qiao Qiao, the family has always been free-range, and Wu Lan was even more cooperative this year: "You can buy a beautiful wine cup yourself, and then pound the tea oil and cook for everyone."

Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up instantly!

In the past, pounding tea oil was just a recreational activity, but now tea oil can be used for cooking - he was instantly full of enthusiasm!

"Is there tea fruit on the mountain now? I'll go now!"

That's not to say there isn't one - among the tea trees all over the mountains and plains, there are always one or two that are blooming or have already produced fruit. but……

"It's too hot now and will break easily. Just wait until autumn and winter. You can choose a beautiful little cup for yourself first. Mom will give you money!"

"Okay!" Qiao Qiao blinked - after all, his money has been used as travel expenses!

He must study hard during this trip. Once he learns it, if he saves money, he will take his parents to travel in the winter when he has no job!

The seventh cousin has already put the tea branches on the fire to smoke them - now the conditions are simple, he just puts the tea branches a little away from the flames, slowly smokes them, and then takes them out to smell the aroma -

"The taste is okay, but I don't know what the flavor will be like when smoked and grilled with meat."

Skilled people like them can actually know what it tastes like when paired with just a brief sniff, but it's not absolutely accurate.

To be on the safe side, the seventh cousin decided - "Tantan, let's try killing two ducks later."

The duck at home is half big and not small, so it is quite suitable for roast duck.

Song Tan thought for a while: "Goodbye, our chickens and ducks are still small, and they must be delicious. If you mix the two, you can't tell which one is more prominent."

"I'll go back to the market and buy an old duck so I can judge whether it tastes good or not."

The seventh cousin thought about it and it made sense: "Okay, the smoked duck is better to choose the old duck, which is more chewy. When the time comes, I will smoke a dry duck for you as a snack."

Then he stretched out his hand to call Qiao Qiao over: "Go, get the big shears, cut these into small branches, cut them into small pieces, one centimeter or two centimeters will do, be careful not to hurt your hands."

"OK."

Qiao Qiao took the scissors for cutting branches at home without saying a word, holding the tea branches in one hand, and started cutting them in the prepared stainless steel basin.

On this side, the seventh cousin asked again: "Wulan, who else in the village raises chickens? Go and ask if there are any eggs, let's buy some."

"What Yan Ping said just now makes sense. Our tea smells good. I want to try to boil tea eggs with old tea branches."

After all, their tea is too expensive, and no one is willing to use it to boil tea eggs.

Not to mention fresh tea, even the yellow tea leaves are not willing to be used by the seventh cousin-after all, he has to drink two cups every day!

"Okay." Wulan immediately stepped on the small basket: "I'll go now."

After all, the tea branches cut in previous years were either given to the factory that came to collect old tea branches, or picked up by other old men and women in the village as firewood.

This thing can only start a fire, but it can't burn. Their family doesn't have enough labor, so they didn't pick it up specially.

It was also a coincidence that Wulan's cell phone rang before she went out.

She answered the phone, and the loud voice on the other end could be heard throughout the yard:

"Wulan, a factory has come to the village to collect old tea branches. Do you want to cut yours? If you do, come and register! They said that the first ten will each receive two boxes of beer!"

Wulan hesitated for a moment.

Zhang Yanping was curious: "This factory is pretty good. There are gifts for door-to-door purchases. How much does it cost per pound to buy these old tea branches?

Good night.

I haven't been efficient in the past few days... It must be that I didn't offer enough sacrifices to the God of Code!
