Chapter 378 - 378: Honey Grapefruit Tea

Ye Muyu started to boil the hot water in the pot.

When the water temperature rose to 60 degrees, it was a little hot, and it was almost done.

She poured the hot water into the basin and placed the grapefruit in it, soaking it for about 15 minutes.

There was no one else in the house. Ye Muyu wanted to ask Lu Chuan to help her peel the skin, but he was too rusty to do the kitchen work.

There was a rare moment of silence.

Lu Chuan’s cheeks were a little red. He explained, “Madam, I’m a rough person. This job is too meticulous. I can do the hard work like hopping bones, but I can’t cut things thin.”

Ye Muyu felt that it was rare to see him blush, so she did not make things difficult for him. “Then go get the grapefruits for Madam Hu.”

“Alright.” Lu Chuan heaved a sigh of relief. He felt better now that Ye Muyu had understood him. He was afraid that he would not do well and cause the family to be dissatisfied.

He turned around and left the courtyard.

Ye Muyu waited for the grapefruits to soak and squeezed out the juice before slowly peeling the skin.

The less white pulp, the better. This way, it would have less bitterness and the grapefruit tea would taste better.

She had almost cut all the grapefruit.

Madam Hu returned first, with seven or eight grapefruits in her basket.

“Madam, Lu Chuan still has 13 grapefruits. They cost 100 copper coins in total, so each one is five copper coins. However, the ones in the village don’t look that yellow. I’ve bought all of them that meet your requirements.” Madam Hu went into the kitchen and washed her hands while explaining to Ye Muyu.

Ye Muyu did not find it strange. Grapefruits ripened from July to September. There were no fruit trees in the village. It would be good if they could apply some fertilizer on them. Naturally, they did not grow well.

However, the price was cheap, and it was not bad to make a second-class

noney pomelo tea.

“You’ve worked hard. I’ll teach you how to peel the skin.” Ye Muyu was already satisfied. It was only because Xingshui Village was close to the county and located in Jiangnan that they could buy good fruits. Those who were slightly deeper in the mountains could only eat wild fruits. They usually did not have time to farm, so there were no villagers who deliberately took care of the fruit trees.

As far as Ye Muyu knew, most rich landowners had their own plantations. The fruits that the rich could eat were usually transported back by the plantations or merchant teams.

It was expensive.

“Yes, Madam.” Madam Hu was skilled and used to cooking. With Ye Muyu’s guidance, she quickly understood that it was not difficult for her to peel the skin.

Ye Muyu did not say anything else when she saw how fast Madam Hu was learning.

“Madam, are you going to make some new food?” Madam Hu asked after thinking for a while.

“Yes, I want to make some tea. Children and girls should like to drink it.” Ye Muyu’s confidence came from the fact that the people of Nanchang County and the other nearby counties all liked sweet flavors. Even the tea leaves they usually drank were sweet.

The honey grapefruit tea tasted sweet and sour, so it should not be disliked.

This was also the reason why she made so many desserts.

“My lady is good with her hands. By the way, Madam, I went to buy some grapefruits just now. I heard from the villagers that a monk has come down from the neighboring county.”

“I heard that there are quite a number of eight or nine-year-old children coming down the mountain this time. Most of them are orphans. Many of them can’t find their families. The monks in the temple will bring them down the mountain and ask the villagers if they are willing to adopt them.”

“It seems that the court will give a certain amount of child support, about one tael of silver. After adoption, one must go to the county government to register their household registration. However, most of the children will be adopted by families who are somewhat related to them..”
