Chapter 50: The fragrance of acacia flowers
"Mom, how can there be a child like you, you and Dad are both old, and when you have money, you can eat and wear something good, and their children will have enough to eat. "Mom advised grandma.
"What do you say, adults live the life of children, but you can't come with the children first, and then say that your mother and I are in good health. "Grandpa trained Mom.
"Yes, you are all dear, I am the late mother, you can do whatever you want in the future, I will listen to the work. Mom said angrily.
"This is a good comrade, Comrade Wanying, you are old and young, but it is not the life of work. Yoyo grimaced at her mother.
Mom looked at herself and asked, "Is this a close-fitting padded jacket that I gave birth, why do you feel that there is wind leaking everywhere." ”
"Mom, you feel that the wind is leaking, so make more delicious food for your daughter. Youyou deliberately pretended not to understand, and hit the snake with the stick.
"Wu Weihua, this gluttony is also the root of your old Wu family. Mom said that it was not Yoyo, and fired directly at Dad.
"It doesn't matter who you want, it's good to eat, it's fragrant to eat, and your body is great. "Yoyo and then poor.
Mom covered her forehead: "I don't know where you studied, you are poor all day long." ”
Dad also felt that Youyou was very poor during this time, so he proposed: "Why don't you go to school with your mother, and have fun with migrant workers at the agency all day long, but you can't learn to be poor." ”
"Dad, are you my own father, how can you arrange your daughter like this, the advantages are yours, and the disadvantages are to blame for not learning well. Yoyo protested severely.
"Besides, what can I learn in school, I know my brother's textbooks. ”
"Dad, that's true, I don't know as much as my sister. Hao Hao hurriedly stood up to prove it.
"Don't say it, my daughter just follows me. "Dad, can we be thicker-skinned?
"I follow my sister. Didi proclaimed.
"Yes, your old son is really with you. "Mommy, stinky dad.
"I don't follow my father, I follow my sister. Didi was in a hurry.
"See, our character is just now. Yoyo hugged Didi and kissed him fiercely. Didi's flamboyant mouth instantly returned to kiss, got the oil on Youyou's face, and Youyou pushed Didi away in disgust, and the family covered their stomachs with laughter.
However, my mother is really interested in Yoyo's learning, and Yoyo is eager to learn from my mother. In the last life, we were born with disabilities, and we had no conditions in the orphanage, and we all knew a little bit of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which was limited to the level of appreciation.
In this life, we are healthy, with sound limbs, beautiful as flowers, with superior IQ, and a natural super baby. Although there are no special study classes in this era, we have an almighty mother.
Although my mother is a new young man who grew up under the red flag, she was born in a big family, and she was still trained as a lady since she was a child, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Since then, every morning, there have been new activities in the home, and my mother has planned to teach you various basic skills, and Hao Hao also gets up early to practice calligraphy and painting, and there is no shortage of pen, ink and paper at home.
In the Yoyo mall, there are top-notch instruments of all kinds, but unfortunately they can't see the light. I can only think of a way slowly in the future, aren't we only five years old, we can afford to wait.
The cuckoo came, sang a song of joy, and the locust blossomed. Clusters of snow-white flowers bloomed on the branches, pressing the branches down slightly, as if shaking their heads in the breeze. The faint sweet fragrance of acacia flowers comes to the nose and refreshes people's hearts.
Grandma led Youyou and Gui Ping to the Yellow River embankment to hook acacia flowers, and when they walked on the embankment, they saw a vast white patch, as if a layer of snow hung on the emerald green branches. Below the embankment, rows of locust trees are as far as the eye can see, like a white jade belt surrounding the embankment.
On the thick trunk of the tree, the tender green leaves set off the white flowers, and a burst of elegant fragrance came to the face, and you couldn't help but breathe deeply, as if you wanted to inhale the fragrance into your stomach. Among the flowers, industrious bees fly around, busy collecting honey. I saw a few people in the distance.
Grandma held a long pole to hook locust flowers, and Gui Ping and Youyou picked them up under the tree. Yoyo picked a handful and stuffed it in his mouth, it was fragrant and sweet. I don't care about picking it up, so I'll eat enough first.
Seeing that it was very uncomfortable for grandma to raise her head, you saw that Gui Ping only looked down to pick up locust flowers, so he released a small robot to the tree to fold the locust flowers and throw them down, and secretly collected them in the space.
Gui Ping picked up the acacia flowers and sang:
Small locust tree, locust and locust tree, set up a stage under the locust tree
Other people's daughters are here, why don't my daughters come
As he spoke, he came, and his father saw it and took the burden
The mother saw it, picked up the doll, and the sister-in-law saw a twist
Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, you are awkward, don't eat your meal,
If you don't drink your wine, you'll leave after reading your parents
The elder brother sent him outside the gate and turned around to say goodbye
Dad sent it, everyone west, turned around and made a gesture
The mother delivered, the jujube tree line, and the mother hugged her head and cried
There is a father, come and go more, and there is no father and mother, and the seedlings are broken
Grandma sighed when she heard this, and said to Youyou: "There are really not many people in the village who love your sister-in-law like your uncle and grandmother, they are all poor. ”
Yoyo didn't answer her grandmother's words, she was busy watching the relevant content of the acacia flower on the brain.
The taste of acacia flowers is fragrant and sweet, rich in vitamins and a variety of minerals, and it also has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, cooling blood and moistening the lungs, lowering blood pressure and preventing stroke.
After picking it, it can be used to make soup, mixed vegetables, stewed rice, and can also be made into acacia cakes, dumplings, and the most common in daily life is steamed acacia flowers.
Many areas in China have this habit, the method is very simple, add the washed locust flowers to the flour and mix well, then add refined salt, monosodium glutamate and other seasonings, mix well and put it in the cage drawer to steam it.
In later generations, people used preservation technology, and the stored locust flowers could be eaten for a year. The price of locust flowers is also rising, and the main purpose of people planting locust trees is to sell them.
Looking at the large locust trees in front of me, the beauty in your heart, the wild vegetable rush in the mall has added new varieties, and I must let my grandmother bring it a few more times.
"Grandma, how delicious are the acacia flowers, why aren't there many to hook them? I can't eat them when I'm old for two days. ”
"Who doesn't plant a few locust trees, we and the second master's family have no place to plant, just run so far, two days late when the locust flowers fall, people come to sweep the locust flowers to feed the pigs, not at all. ”
It's good that no one came, it was just convenient for me to move, but fortunately, the migrant workers who rebuilt the embankment were on the other side of the embankment.
At noon, grandma made a big pot of steamed locust flowers, which were soft and delicious, full of fragrance. Grandpa wondered: "Why are this year's acacia flowers better than the original?"
Grandma replied: "In the past, I was reluctant to put noodles on steamed locust flowers, it was greasy and sticky, just fill my stomach, but this year I steamed it with white flour and fried it in oil, can it be delicious?"
"Grandma, let's fry the locust cake and eat it. Yoyo proposed
"Okay, what do you want to eat, grandma will make it. ”
"Sophora soup, acacia dumplings. Yoyo lifted it with his fingers.
"You are also the root of the old Wu family. Mom looked at Dad and quipped.
"Dad, Mom, this is discriminating against our old Wu family. "Yoyo is looking for allies at Daddy's.
But Comrade Wu said: "Girl, can we change this gluttony?"
