Mingguang also said, "It's just that the shrimp inside is too small, not as big as the shrimp in the creek in front of our house." β
Ning Xiguang was pleasantly surprised, "There are still shrimp in the creek in front of our house?"
"Yes, eldest sister, you don't know?"
She really didn't know, because she hadn't gone to the creek a long time ago. After all, there are two more water tanks in the house, and the marshal fills it up every day, and she washes and washes at home, and rarely goes to the stream anymore.
As soon as he heard Mingguang say it at this time, Ning Xiguang was excited, "Are the shrimps in the stream big?"
"It's bigger than the one we ate anyway. β
What are you looking for?
We eat shrimp skin, and the river shrimp in the stream should be bigger, which must be bigger than shrimp skin.
It seems that she can consider going to the stream next afternoon when she has nothing to do.
You might even find some big shrimp or crabs.
You might even find some big shrimp, crabs, or clams.
In the afternoon, Fu Siyan went to work, and the three little ones also followed.
Before planting sweet potatoes, the ground must be turned over, and a woman will plant the sprouted sweet potato chunks in the back.
Children like Yueguang and Mingguang who are half old can have a big role at this time, and they can run errands to "transport seedlings".
The children are already fast-paced, and they have work to hang in front of them, and they seem to have to ship sweet potato wedges back and forth in a race, and they don't wait for a while.
The little ones are too small, but such a small child has a job to do, and they can pick up the larger stones inside after the adults have turned over the plot. Although it is a very small thing, it also makes these little guys very busy, all of them are sweaty, their faces are also like cats, and they are tired and panting, and they really look a little bit of work.
Ning Xiguang didn't go to work when he was cutting wheat before, and now he is also ordered to stay at home. She had some free time, and in the afternoon she carried a bucket and searched for it by the stream.
Not to mention, if you look carefully, there are really a lot of things in this creek.
At the very least, Ning Xiguang had already seen groups of river shrimp within the scope of her spiritual power, and they were not small, and the amount was also large, enough to make a few dishes.
In addition to river shrimp, there are crabs, but crabs are much smaller. Not to mention that it can't be compared with hairy crabs in modern society, even compared with ordinary river crabs, it is also very small, far less than the size of Xiaoqi's palm, so there is no need to eat it.
However, you can remember where these crabs grow and come back in September. At that time, these crabs will grow fat, and it is also the season to drink chrysanthemum wine and eat crabs, and a few crabs on the table can also be suitable for the occasion.
Ning Xiguang also saw a lot of clams, as well as carp, water snakes, crucian carp, and snails.
I really don't know if I don't look closely, it turns out that after a few months of growth, there are so many more creatures in the stream, but it's time for them to feast on it.
Ning Xiguang confirmed that there was no one in the range of spiritual power, so he simply activated his spiritual power and caught a fat crucian carp, a carp, a yellow eel, and also picked up a lot of clams, snails and river shrimp.
After taking some of the things he wanted, Ning Xiguang saw that the barrels were full, and then he went home satisfied.
Crucian carp, carp and yellow eels are kept in wooden barrels.
The clams and snails are poured separately in a wooden basin. She added a lot of water to the tub, dripped some peanut oil into it, and stirred it.
The purpose of dripping peanut oil and stirring is to make the peanut oil float evenly on the water surface and form a thin film on top of the water layer. This membrane keeps out the air, so the clams and snails in the water can't breathe and quickly spit out the sediment.
Of course, it takes time to spit out sand, and the snails and clams can only be eaten at the earliest, and Ning Xiguang has placed these things, and then he takes out those river shrimps.
She is not going to raise river shrimp, she is going to eat it at night, but now it is still early, so she picks the shrimp line at this time, and cuts the shrimp whiskers and shrimp feet, and the shrimp is not fresh, and she has to wait.
There is nothing to do at this time, remembering that he promised to make cold cakes for Xiao Qi earlier, Ning Xiguang wanted to do it. However, there are many requirements for making cold cakes, and she now has no white jelly that is easy to solidify the ingredients, no grinding tools for cold cakes, and no refrigerator to make the made cold cakes solidify.
If there is a lack of abrasives, you can replace it with other rough things, but there is no white powder, no refrigerator, can this cold cake still be made?
Obviously, I can't do it.
Then this can only be made with a different kind of pastry?!
If you have red beans and yams at home, you will make yam and red bean cakes. In addition, if it is hot today, you can also make some mung bean cake to cool off.
Ning Xiguang turned on the posture and was busy, and he was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground for a while. Coupled with the heat in the kitchen, it didn't take long for her clothes to get wet with sweat.
After steaming the pastries, she ran out of the kitchen.
I wanted to take a shower first, and I felt that if it wasn't early today, and dinner was going to be made soon, there was really no need to waste that little water ^_^, so I just sat in the shade of the tree for a while, and fanned myself with a fan to cool off.
Waiting for the sweet smell of pastries to come from the kitchen, Ning Xiguang went into the kitchen to extinguish the stove, and then took out the steamed pastries.
Because there was no mold, all the pastries were made into ordinary circles by Ning Xiguang. They are all small and compact, or purple red or bean green, and they look very good on the lid.
She ate a yam red bean cake, and it felt okay, quite delicious, but not sweet enough.
This sweetness is suitable for the Marshal's tasteβshe makes it according to the Marshal's taste.
It's suitable for the marshal, but it's not sweet enough for a few small ones. It's not a problem, it's sweet to eat it in a small bowl and drizzle some honey on top.
The mung bean cake is also not sweet enough, but it is still delicious, and it tastes rustling, only the mung bean paste without the mung bean skin has a mellow taste, and Ning Xiguang ate one after another.
After eating three pieces of pastry, Ning Xiguang's stomach was already full. And then the sun began to set, and she began to cook dinner.
Dinner was hearty.
Ning Xiguang steamed rice, made crucian carp soup, braised eel segments, fried river shrimp, and made a sweet and sour carp, fried tomatoes, and a shiitake mushroom rape.
Five dishes and one soup were served, and a few small ones also came back with the fragrance, and then Fu Siyan also arrived home.
Today, when planting sweet potatoes, most of the men are arranged to plough the ground, and Fu Zhiqing is doing the work of ploughing the ground.
At the end of the day, others were tired and their feet were heavy, their hands and feet were painful, and he was relaxed as if he had gone on an outing, and he didn't see a tired look on his face at all.
But turning the ground, there must be dirt on his body, and Fu Zhiqing has a habit of cleanliness, so he still eats after taking a shower today.
A few small ones were already eating the pastries at this time.
They really didn't like it being sweet enough, so they cut the pastry into small pieces and put them on a plate according to what Ning Xiguang said, and then poured a layer of honey on top.
The moonlight is a girl's house in the end, and she is ingenious, and she also picked two lilacs from the yard and a few coriander leaves, which is also a scene.
But then again, it's quite decent, which makes this pastry immediately increase in value, and it looks different.
When the meal started, the three little ones had already eaten four or five pastries into their stomachs, and Ning Xiguang saw that the little ones were still going to take them, so he hurriedly stopped him, "Today, the eldest sister made delicious food, there are fish, shrimp and tomato scrambled eggs, if you have a full stomach, those delicious ones can't be eaten." β
Xiao Qi touched his stomach pitifully, struggled to put down the yam and red bean cake in his hand, and sat down to eat obediently.
In the end, because I ate too many pastries, the amount of food for several small ones is much smaller today.
Xiao Qi ate half a bowl of rice and was full, and Yueguang and Mingguang reluctantly stuffed a bowl of rice down, saying that they couldn't eat it anymore.
Seeing this, Ning Xiguang could only urge the marshal to eat more, "There is still rice left, and I will make egg fried rice tomorrow, but the dishes will be eaten." It's still hot on this day, and if you don't put things away, they will definitely go bad tomorrow. β
After saying this, Ning Xiguang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, when was she already so careful and would live a good life?
I think when I was the queen, every hundred and ten dishes was withdrawn with a simple movement of two chopsticks.
That's a waste!
Now that I think about it, I feel incredible, what was the life of that time, why was it so extravagant?
Her expression changed, and Fu Siyan looked at it and asked, "What do you want?"
Ning Xiguang saw that the three little ones had already left the dining table to take a bath, so he came over and carefully told him what he had thought before, and sighed at the end, "You said that at that time, you didn't think there was anything wrong with doing that, but now it's good, I feel guilty when I think about it." β
Fu Siyan was a little helpless, touched her head and said to her, "It's really idle, I think too much." β
Ning Xiguang glared.
Everything was as usual the next morning, and Ning Xiguang also got up early to make breakfast.
After breakfast and a few people went to work, Ning Xiguang first changed the water in the clams and snail basins, and then took out the black-brown tweed fabric he bought in the county seat yesterday and cut it, ready to make a coat for the marshal.
No one knew the marshal's form better than her, so it was only a simple thought that all the data came to mind.
She methodically measured, lined, and cropped.
Because of the delicate work, it took me most of the morning to cut the coat, and I didn't even have time to sew it.
But there is no way to do it, I have to make lunch in a hurry, so I can only continue to do it in the afternoon.
Because the weather is gloomy and relatively cool today, Ning Xiguang is going to make clam noodle soup for lunch.
The clams in the basin vomited water overnight, and they were basically clean and ready to eat.
When she was satisfied, she went to meet her. She is not very good at making hand-rolled noodles, after all, she has never done it, but the basic procedures and precautions are known, and it will not be unpalatable if she wants to make it.
After waiting for the noodles to wake up for more than ten minutes, Ning Xiguang picked up the rolling pin and rolled the dough into a big thin cake.
Then make a fire, stir-fry the garlic, put the clams, pour wine and soy sauce, and then put a little water into it, and mix it over high heat. Wait until all the clams are open, then put in the rest of the seasoning, then put them on a plate when they are cooked, then add cold water to the pot and bring to a boil.
When the water boiled, she went to the yard to pick a few cabbages, cleaned them and took them to the kitchen for later use.
As a result, before I could enter the kitchen, I heard the footsteps of several children outside.
It's time for work.
Ning Xiguang saw that the water was also boiling, so he immediately put down the noodles, and when the noodles were about to come out of the pot, he threw the fresh cabbage into it and fished it out.
Finally, the noodle soup was served with a few slices of verdant bok choy in each bowl, an egg cut in half, and a large spoonful of scrambled clams.
Xiao Mi only took one bite and shouted, "This noodle is delicious." β
It's really delicious, and the taste is delicious. The noodles are also very strong, because Ning Xiguang kneaded the noodles for a long time and had a lot of strength, and this noodles tasted slightly elastic, and they were quite delicious.
Several children were very supportive, and Ning Xiguang looked at the marshal again.
Under the pressure of her sparkling eyes, the marshal could only twitch the corners of his mouth and say, "Not bad." Ning Xiguang smiled like a flower in an instant.
In the next few days, several people were busy plowing the ground and planting sweet potatoes.
After planting sweet potatoes, some corners are required to plant soybeans.
Finally, even the soybeans were planted, and the work in the field came to an end, but until now God has not had a drop of rain, and the village chief's uncle is in a hurry and asks the members to go to the creek to fetch water to water the ground.
However, before the members could complain, Fu Zhiqing went to talk to the village chief. I don't know what the two said, in short, I didn't mention the matter of carrying water again. Someone asked, and the village chief's uncle also said to wait and talk about it tomorrow.
As a result, the pouring rain that had been held back for a summer poured down that night.
The rain fell quickly and hurriedly, crackling on the ground, and in a short time the courtyard became a stream and drained down the drain.
It rained heavily overnight and stopped the next morning.
But at this time, the temperature dropped significantly, and Ning Xiguang had to instruct the three small ones to wear long sleeves when they went out, and then wear short sleeves to get goosebumps.
The three little ones were also obedient, and when they came out of their autumn clothes, they picked up a broom to clean up the fallen leaves that had been knocked off by the wind and stuck to the ground.
kept gossiping with Ning Xiguang, "It's good to have this rain, and it also saves everyone from carrying water to water the ground, so you can have a good rest these days." Mingguang said this.
Moonlight said, "If you take a break, you won't have any work." β
Ning Xiguang nodded at her, "You're all about work now, this is an addiction to earning work, right?"
"There are five days left, and five days later to go to school. β
"Okay, then don't forget to remind me then, I forgot to pay you tuition. β
"Got it, big sister. β
The ground under a heavy rain is slimy, and when you go down, it is a pit, and there is no way to go out. The three younger ones were asked by Ning Xiguang to review their homework in the house, and she and Fu Siyan gossiped in the house.
"You're almost at the end of your vacation. I did the math, and there were less than five days left. She couldn't help but sigh, "It's really fast, half a month has passed in a blink of an eye." β
Fu Siyan only thought that she was reluctant to let him leave, so he said, "The army is building a family home, you can consider joining the army." β
Ning Xiguang glanced at him, "I'm idle." I'm so close to you, and I'm still going to join the army, isn't this enough to eat?"
He frowned again and asked, "Aren't you a special forces brigade?" Aren't you so disciplined that you are not even allowed to visit relatives, so how can you build a family home in the army?"
