Chapter 31: Cabbage rolls with foamed meat

As soon as Tang Qian and Lin Huimin walked out of the gate of Lingzhen's house, they saw a familiar figure coming towards them.

Tang Qian chuckled in her heart when she saw people at that time-it was Yaya who ran towards them!

In her previous life, from Zhao Yixun's simple "okay", she sniffed out his keen intuition of cheating and resurrected in situ at this moment, and her intuition Yaya, something is wrong, something is wrong!

She hurriedly took two steps forward, and sure enough, before the girl could run to her, her legs went limp, and her knees almost hit the concrete floor.

Yaya's eyes were full of tears and sadness and helplessness: "Sister Coriander, Aunt Min, you can help me......"

It is said that Ling Town and Anxiang Town face each other across the river, and Anxiang Town and Ling Town are both surrounded by many small villages.

Yaya lives in one of the small villages looking at Anxiang Town, which is located on the edge of the Jiuqu River, and is not a fishing village.

Most of the people in the fortune-telling village don't tell fortunes for the people in their own village, and most of them go to Anxiang Town to deceive the ignorant and kind townspeople. Some of them are a bit of a pound, and they can also make a lot of money when they build a house for a wedding or a new house.

Yaya's father was a half-stupid, half-mad man, who had been wandering around the village - yes, wandering, this stupid madman had no place to live, and when he was hungry, he rummaged through the garbage to eat, and slept at night in the deserted cowshed.

Of course, Yaya also lived with her father before lying on the ground and covering the sky, until she found a job at Tang Qian.

Yaya made money, so she bought the glue of the soup coriander decoration stall and went back, wrapped the cowshed tightly, and paved the ground, leaving windows and doors, which looked new and new, like a newly started fire brick hut.

Because Tang Qian gave her a salary of 50 yuan a day and packed food for her, her father didn't have to dig out the garbage, and he could eat a mouthful of hot rice noodles every day.

Yaya rides a women's broken bicycle that she picked up from nowhere to work for Tang Qian every day, and rides back at night no matter how late it is.

Nothing happened this week, but Tang Qian and Lin Huimin were sad to hear - they usually don't close their stalls until ten or eleven o'clock, and a little girl goes to the village so late, and it seeps people to think about it.

And now they are on the way to the fortune-telling village, called a three-wheeled magic car, the car has been running for more than ten minutes, the shadow at the entrance of the village has not yet been seen, you can think about how long Yaya usually has to ride the car.

"I ride for almost an hour every day. Yaya said, "I will hurry up in the evening, I will be back in more than 40 minutes, and if I don't go back, my father will stand at the entrance of the village and wait for me." ”

Tang Qian felt as if she didn't know what was blocking her throat, and she was flustered and uncomfortable.

Lin Huimin touched Yaya's head, her eyes were red: "Child, you have worked hard." ”

Yaya was only eight years old and didn't go to school, but she would secretly go to the primary school in her village to listen to it, and she learned a lot.

It is said that the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, even if many people in this village make a lot of money with the half-pit and half-meager career of fortune-telling, they are also a people who make a lot of money.

Diao Min usually has his own bizarre thinking - of course I am doing well, if you are better than me, you will steal it from me.

Although people also make money by their own efforts.

Yaya decorated the cowshed like this, and when she met that guy, her business was not very good, so she sprinkled her anger on Yaya, saying that Yaya's money for installing the cowshed was usually paid from them.

He also said that this cowshed was originally going to be demolished, and it was not in the way, but the people who lived in it also tossed it a new look, and it pressed the dragon veins in the village, and the whole village would not make a fortune if it was not demolished.

When the girl was not there, they pointed at the stupid madman and scolded, and the stupid madman didn't know what was going on, and when everyone played with him, they clapped their hands and laughed.

The stupid madman smiled like this, and those people were immediately angry, and each of them went over to give the stupid madman a kick and left, and the bear children in the village saw that the adults were like this, and they all gathered around and spat at the stupid madman.

The stupid madman didn't know how to hide, he stood there stupidly, and the bear child threw stones at him, and he stood stunned. I don't know whose bear child, a brick was thrown over, and the stupid madman was still hiding, but this time he lay down.

Some people in the village who were unwilling to be directors, when they saw this, they all smashed their faces bloody, and they were so frightened that they hurried over and drove the rabbit cubs away.

When a few men lifted him up, the stupid madman wanted to move around and hide the pot behind him, but finally one man said, "Don't worry, we won't smash your pot!"

The stupid madman was willing to let go, and everyone sent him to the small clinic in the village, where the bleeding stopped, but only a simple bandage.

The stupid madman was smashed by the bears and children like this, and everyone was afraid of it, and when he was bandaged, a few strong men pressed him to wrap it, and as soon as he bandaged it, he jumped out and disappeared.

These were all things that happened the night before, and Yaya and a few villagers searched for him with flashlights all night before finally finding him in the middle of the rice fields.

Last night, the stupid madman started a fever, and the barefoot doctor in the clinic came and went with so many injections, and gave a fever-reducing injection, but he didn't dare to inject penicillin, and the stupid madman refused to hang the needle.

Probably because stupid madmen were born and raised for these years, and their resistance has long been different from ordinary people, and the fever has subsided in the middle of the night.

But there is still blood oozing from the wound on his head, Yaya has also been out of town, and the eight-year-old girl will also worry about the severity of the matter, and she knows how to read people's eyes and guess the thoughts of adults, and Yaya's experience makes her more delicate and sensitive than ordinary children.

She knew that the barefoot doctor was unreliable, and she didn't expect the villagers to help, so she came to Tang Qian and Lin Huimin to help move an iron bed, a few clothes, and a little bits and pieces.

Tang Qian heard that her hands were clenched into fists, and as soon as she got out of the car, she walked in front, Tang Qian hesitated at first, and then looked at her mother's face carefully and said, "Mom, do you want Yaya and her father to live in our small courtyard first?"

Lin Huimin nodded without hesitation: "I was like this just now, you can let her live with her father here first, and then we will go out to find a house for her, I heard that the small tile house on the other side of the old street can be rented, only 200 yuan a month, and Yaya has 50 yuan a night, which can be supported." ”

Tang Qian was a little surprised, her mother has always been a person who is afraid of gossip, but she didn't expect her mother to be so simple this time. And as soon as I heard this, I thought about it, and I thought about the way back, not on the spur of the moment.

Even if the town is not in the same village, it is also a small place, and the three aunts and six women chew their tongues and count the so-called scandals, and trivial things can be said for the next month.

Lin Huimin looked at her daughter's eyes and smiled: "What, you were stupid by your mother's chivalry?"

Tang Qian held her mother's hand and smiled sideways to drill her mother's neck: "Ms. Lin Huimin is a good person!"

Lin Huimin scraped her daughter's head: "Good people are poor! I didn't say anything about raising them and showing them a more comfortable way to live...... Go ahead, this neck is twisted and looks like it's panicking for you!"

The stupid madman only recognized the girl, and when he heard the voice of other people, he covered his head with his clothes, and shrank in the corner with a babbling voice, and refused to let people come near.

Tang Qian told Yaya what she had just discussed with her mother, and Yaya knelt on the ground with a plop, and kept kowtowing to Tang Qian and Lin Huimin.

Luckily there was hay on the ground, otherwise this end would have been broken.

Lin Huimin pulled the girl up and wiped away her tears: "Silly child, don't thank you, Aunt Min can't help you anything, you have to be strong, these difficulties can't defeat you, do you know kid?"

Yaya nodded heavily: "Thank you, Aunt Min! As soon as we find a good place, my father and I will move in, and I won't trouble you." ”

Lin Huimin nodded, didn't dare to look at the cowshed wrapped in rubber, and walked out with tears in her eyes.

The girl walked over to the corner and said to the stupid madman, "Dad, let's move today." ”

With a simple sentence, Tang Qian's heart was sour until the tip of his nose was heard, and he also bowed his head and walked out of the cowshed.

Lin Huimin was talking to a middle-aged man with a shiny black face outside.

When she walked over and listened, it turned out that this person was the village chief and had sent money to Yaya.

The village chief also looked helpless: "This stupid madman is not from our village, but since he injured someone, he has to pay for it, and the family is not rich, so he can only come up with two hundred yuan." ”

Lin Huimin is not the kind of person who is unforgiving, and after taking the money, it is not good to do anything to the village chief, after all, it is not easy for him, so he simply said: "I'm tired of the village chief." ”

Yaya ran out and wanted to kowtow to the village chief again: "Thank you village chief for taking me in for so long!" and whispered to Tang Qian, "The village chief didn't let those people drive me and my father, and I quarreled with them many times." ”

Tang Qian was originally angry, and his indignation at wanting the village chief to take people out and teach them a lesson was immediately vented.

It's not easy for everyone, and it's always hard to have both worlds.

The village chief said to send them off, and talked to Tang Qian, Lin Huimin, Yaya and the stupid madman who had been insisting on covering his head all the way.

He looked at the girl who was coaxing the stupid madman to take the clothes on his head, sighed, and whispered to Lin Huimin and Tang Qian: "That stupid madman is actually not Yaya's biological father. ”

A very informative sentence made Tang Qian and Lin Huimin's pupils dilated.

"Yaya doesn't know who left it in the cowshed in our village, she is only a little more than a year old, and she can just walk a few steps. The village chief made a crawling posture, "That stupid madman has already heard from the village next to him, and he doesn't know how he got to other people's villages." Anyway, all of a sudden, one day he's there, you know? Every once in a while, a car comes to our village, and all those stupid, crazy, and beggars walk around the road blindfolded?"

Lin Huimin nodded: "I know, our town has also seen this car, and I heard that they all put it down when they went to a particularly remote place, just because they were afraid that they would recognize the road." ”

When the village chief saw that Lin Huimin knew about this, he naturally went down and said: "It's strange to say, this stupid madman has been carried around five or six times, and other fools and even beggars can't recognize the way back, but this stupid madman can always return to that place and stay by the river every day." ”

Tang Qian guessed: "He is actually from that village, right?"

The village chief shook his head: "I heard that it is not. To be honest, the population of this village is very fixed, and everyone knows whether it is from their own village or not. Anyway, the last time he was taken around, he didn't recognize the road, and came to our village by mistake. At that time, Yaya was almost four years old, and she was the stupid madman she picked up, she took the stupid madman back to the cowshed to live, and everyone said that she had a father. ”

Hearing this, Tang Qian and Lin Huimin were even more sad.

As she spoke, the entrance to the village also arrived, Yaya gave up coaxing her father, and the village chief stopped the two three-wheeled motorcycles.

There was a choking smell on the stupid madman's body, and the car was almost about to run away, and the last few people were willing to carry it.

Yaya and her father had a small iron bed and a few clothes.

Tang Qian and Lin Huimin have one.

This three-wheeled motorcycle shuttles between two towns and villages, which are not far from the town, and only come to the car in half a day, and everyone is more happy to take this means of transport.

When Yaya got in the car, she said to Tang Qian: "Sister Qianzi, you go to work first, I will go to the hospital with my father, I know how to register, and I also know which building to go to for stitches." If someone refuses to listen to me, I will accompany him. ”

As soon as Lin Huimin and Tang Qian approached, the stupid crazy boy began to scream and shout.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her, Lin Huimin asked her to put the two hundred yuan just now, and stuffed another three hundred yuan for her: "In case the money for filming is not enough, Aunt Min will go to the bank to withdraw it, you let the doctor carefully examine it, and if there is really something, hurry up and go to the county hospital." ”

Tang Qian advised: "We are at Lingzhen at noon, if you are in a hurry, go there to find us." If it's late, Aunt Min is at Lingzhen's house, you can go there and wait. ”

Yaya nodded solemnly: "I know." ”

Being tossed by Yaya like this, this refrigerator can't be bought, Tang Qian and Lin Huimin saw that the time was about the same, so they asked people to park in Lingzhen.

Mr. Guan was watching TV, his grandson was learning English with the learning machine, ABC's songs were singing upside down, and when he saw Tang Qian, he remembered the bacon egg cup in the morning, and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

I don't know why, after eating that fragrant egg cup in the morning, he was obviously very full, but now that the meal has not arrived, he feels hungry again, and he really wants to eat!

Guan Yijian's children were very distressed and practiced ABC again.

Tang Qian and Lin Huimin greeted Mr. Guan and began to divide and cooperate.

It's still early, Tang Qian plans to finish it with her mother quickly, and she can go to Zhuang Shize's house to make lunch for his family.

This time, the "recipe" jumped out again-

Please make a cabbage meat foam roll

Ingredients: cabbage, lean meat, salt, chicken essence, soy sauce, ginger, corn kernels, bean sprouts, vinegar, sugar

Efficacy: This dish is as little oil and salt as possible, so that all the ingredients can maintain the original taste as much as possible, and it is nutritious and healthy after cooking, suitable for the elderly and children. Especially for children, it is more beneficial to the spleen, stomach and appetite.

Please steam and eat for immediate results.

As soon as the request for "recipe" jumped out, Tang Qian was holding a pot with a lid in her hand, and suddenly her hand fell, and as soon as she opened it, she saw pieces of cabbage with white stems and green leaves appearing inside.

She opened the leaves, and she could see that the bottom was divided into small bags of ingredients according to their weights.

A small bag of lean meat foam, pick it up and fold it with both hands, just enough to wrap it;

a small bag of fine salt and sugar and vinegar, the bag was very small, the same size and length as half an index finger;

The bag of chicken essence is only half the size of a thumb;

The bag of soy sauce is the size of a palm;

Ginger has become ginger puree, half a palm-sized bag;

Corn kernels and mung bean sprouts that have been cut into sections are packed together, and there are also palm-sized bags;

She was a little used to the ingredients that appeared out of thin air, and these ingredients would always pick the right size for her pot drill, anyway, this kitchen was also stocked with fresh vegetables, and no one wondered where she made this dish.

Put the soup coriander in a small half pot on the water rack and boil on the stove over high heat, wash the cabbage, remove the stems and leaves.

She looked at the cabbage, and then saw that her mother was chopping the meat filling, and suddenly she was inspired, opened the "recipe", and bought another handful of spinach.

She turned on another stove, poured in most of the pot of water, added a large circle of oil, added a little salt, and put the spinach down.

The water here is also boiling, she took a big colander and put the cabbage in, and after a little water, she netted it and directly put it on a wide-mouth porcelain basin to filter the water.

Guan Yijian's children have been thinking about the food made by Tang Qian since they ate the osmanthus glutinous rice lotus made by Tang Coriander on the boat, although they were full of vanity at a young age, and they have always emphasized that they only eat Western food, but the sweetness of the two pieces of glutinous rice root has been lingering in his mind at that time.

When Tang Qian was dealing with cabbage, Guan Yijian's children were like little adults with their hands behind their backs, and their little short legs were walking with bitter and hateful steps, as if the leader was inspecting.

Seeing the green vegetable leaves, he turned on the pretending mode again: "If you are going to make a vegetable salad, you can barely eat it, if it is anything else, I won't eat it." ”

He automatically made up for the on-site effect of the gourmand that everyone looked up to, and his stinky heart floated to the sky.

But in Tang Qian's eyes, this is just a picky bear child who doesn't like to eat vegetables, and smiled.

She smiled like this, and Guan Yijian's child ran away with a red face inexplicably.

What does he think, this sister seems to be quite good-looking when she laughs......

The spinach was blanched after a while, and the soup coriander netted the spinach with a large colander and set it aside to dry.

Then she turned back and put salt, chicken essence, soy sauce, ginger foam and cornstarch into the minced meat and mixed well, then added corn kernels, cut mung bean sprouts, and mixed well. These are the fillings she's going to make the cabbage rolls, but there's no rush to make them later.

She first cut the spinach into pieces, threw it into a blender and stirred it into spinach juice, sifted it as she poured it out, and then handed her mother a bowl of turquoise spinach juice.

"Mom, use this and make a ball, let's make a cabbage dumpling. Tang Qian pointed to the remaining flour.

Lin Huimin understood: "Just the one I made for you before!"

Without saying a word, Lin Huimin used spinach juice to mix another ball of blue-green dough, rolled it into a thin crust, kneaded the white dough into strips, wrapped it in a thin green crust, and kneaded the round strips together.

After kneading the round strips, she cut the round strips into small round pieces, pressed them flat and pinched them, and there was an extra piece of dumpling skin with green edges and white hearts in her hand.

She took two slices of cabbage from the soup coriander and chopped them, added them to the original pork filling, picked up chopsticks and quickly wrapped the dumplings.

Here, the soup coriander flattens the cabbage leaves, puts minced meat on top, uses a spoon to put the filling at a distance from the tip of a spoon from the tip of the leaf, puts a small round strip, and then uses chopsticks to lift the vegetable leaves, the spoon presses the filling and cooperates with the cabbage rolling, rolls ten or twenty, and puts it on the plate and stacks it.

She boiled a small pot of water again, took the steamer and put it down, put the plate away, turned up the heat, and watched the time.

Lin Huimin's dumplings were also wrapped in two cages, and Tang Qian walked over to help wrap the last cage, put it on the steamer, and watched the time.

After about ten minutes, there was a burst of fragrance in the steamer, Guan Yijian's child moved to the steamer while thinking "I will eat just the vegetables", and his brain had been swiped by "I'm so hungry, I want to eat vegetables" in the last few steps.

Lin Huimin's dumplings had already come out of the pot, wrapped in a towel and brought to the table with a bamboo steamer, and Mr. Guan was already waiting there with chopsticks.

Let the soup coriander steam for another five minutes, wrap the edge with a towel when starting the dish, press the vegetable rolls on the steaming tray and put the water in the dish in a small bowl, add a little vinegar, salt and sugar, mix well, and then pour it on top of the cabbage rolls.

As soon as this dish was put on the table, Guan Yijian's children forked one away, the bright green cabbage roll was supported by the rich filling, and when he bit down, the delicious juice of the filling spurted out, he hurriedly took the bowl and held it, chewing the soft and sweet vegetable leaves and fragrant meat foam, and drinking the juice in the bowl into his mouth, so that he felt that the feeling of being dizzy from hunger just now eased a little.

Mr. Guan first ate a dumpling, this dumpling has green edges and a white background, Lin Huimin is skillful, and he also pinched out the folds, and the top is gathered in the middle, which looks like a lifelike Chinese cabbage!

The bun has the slight fragrance of spinach but does not have the astringency of spinach, the pork filling is filled with dried shrimp, which is fragrant and fresh, the dumpling skin is full of strength, chewing and springy, and the cabbage in the meat filling is less greasy and more refreshing to eat.

He added another cabbage roll, although it is very simple to make zuò, but after the cabbage is combined with other ingredients, it shows the delicacy from the simplicity and generosity - a bite down, the light cabbage is wrapped in a delicious and juicy meat foam, sweet but not bland, just one bite makes people fall in love with its taste!

Guan Yijian's child had completely forgotten what he had just said, and was snoring and eating.

Mr. Guan looked at his grandson and was very happy.

I rushed to make breakfast in the morning, and then I was rushed by Yaya's business, Lin Huimin then remembered that I could check the score of the college entrance examination at noon today!

Tang Qian was also reminded by Lin Huimin, because she had checked too much in her previous life, but now she has no nervousness.

Lin Huimin was different, urging her to quickly pack up her things and go home to Principal Yuan's house to check the score - she felt that such a heavy matter had to go back to a familiar place to check, and that feeling was solid.

Mr. Guan saw that the mother and daughter were in such a hurry, so he said to Tang Qian, who was packing up his things and preparing to leave: "Little girl, it's a pity that you don't come to Jiangcheng, Jiangcheng will have more and better development opportunities - I, an old man, don't say anything to help you, leave you a phone, if you come to Jiangcheng in the future, I still want to bother you to cook for my grandson." ”

Tang Qian solemnly took the phone with both hands and bent down slightly: "Thank you in advance, old man." ”

Lin Huimin also hurriedly came over to thank him, and then called Tang Qian: "Let's go, it's almost twelve o'clock, you can check the score." ”

Mr. Guan heard it: "Check the score?

Lin Huimin smiled embarrassedly: "My daughter has finished the college entrance examination this year, and her scores are out today." ”

Mr. Guan: "I have a phone here, can I find it here?"

Lin Huimin looked at Tang Qian, Tang Qian nodded, and said to Mr. Guan: "Then thank you Mr. Guan first." ”

Mr. Guan smiled hehehe: "It's a trivial matter, where do you volunteer?"

Tang Qian's volunteer application during this period is a bit of a pitfall, and the volunteers who reported in June for the July exam are not like the young ones who came later, they are all June exams, and they will wait for the scores to be released at the end of June before applying for volunteers.

At this time, she didn't go to the first choice, and many people were robbed of their files by the school of the third choice, and they couldn't go to the second choice.

It's really unjust to think about it.

However, Tang Qian remembered that he applied for the university in Jiangcheng where he applied for all three of his volunteers, and in the end, he played extraordinarily and got a high score into the first choice.

She came back to her senses from her memories and said with a smile: "I applied for the university in Jiangcheng. ”

When Mr. Guan heard this, he couldn't help but say loudly: "Okay!"

Lin Huimin was already waiting next to the phone, Tang Qian walked over, dialed the score check number, entered the admission ticket number as required, and the electronic voice over there first reported the total score - 621 points.

As soon as he heard this number, Lin Huimin breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "I will definitely be able to go to A big now!"

Parents of college entrance examination candidates have studied the admission scores of major colleges and universities in previous years, and they also pay special attention to the changes in the examination policy of that year, and they are more worried than the candidates.

As soon as this score came out, Mr. Guan smiled: "Little girl, it seems that I have given the right call!

Although Tang Qian was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but be happy, and smiled sweetly: "The old gentleman was prescient. ”

Guan Yijian's children's eyes lit up -- he would have bacon and egg cups for breakfast in the future! Thinking about it, he was hungry again......
