"Grandpa, mother-in-law, I'm going to get the leftover hawthorn mud to eat, it's a little sour, do you want to put sugar or honey." The brook took a small bowl of hawthorn mud, tilted it slightly, and motioned for them to show it.

"I'm going to put honey, honey is delicious, put more ha. Thinking of the deliciousness of honey, Granny Chen smacked her lips.

"I put honey too. "Honey is delicious, it is smoother and sweeter than sugar, and it is more nourishing, and it is not so sweet and greasy, so Mr. Chen prefers honey.

"Well, I see. When they had finished, the brook replied and turned around.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Sister, I want honey too, hey, hey, hey, ......hey,

Xiaoxi smiled at his forehead, "I know, you little glutton, you have to put more too." Finally, he smiled and glanced at him. That glance is full of tolerance and pampering, as well as cherishing.

Scooped up the honey in all four small bowls, but the amount was different. Xiaoxi and Old Man Chen's hawthorn mud only scooped one spoonful, and Granny Chen and Chen Yubin scooped three spoonfuls, but at Chen Yubin's request, another spoonful was added.

Each small bowl was equipped with a spoon, and then Chen Yubin picked up the small bowl and handed it to Old Man Chen and Granny Chen, and then they picked up their own and sat down on the dining table, stirred the honey evenly before eating.

Looking at the empty board, Granny Chen knew that they had filled up the hawthorn water, but she didn't say anything, and there was nothing unpleasant in her heart. A few broken hawthorns boiled water, it cost a few firewood, it is not worth anything, they will take it if they want to.

Xiaoxi doesn't like to eat too sweet food, so she added a spoonful of honey, which was just right for her, sweet and sour, both appetizing and refreshing.

"Hmm~ delicious, it's so fragrant, let's chirp. "This hawthorn has been boiled for almost an hour, and the flesh is stewed and rotten, which is very delicate.

Thinking that he added one spoonful and felt that it was sweet enough, and Chen Yubin added four spoonfuls and shouted that it was delicious, Xiaoxi suddenly felt sweet and greasy, his teeth hurt, and he shivered.

"Binbin, it's delicious, don't chirp. Hearing Chen Yubin's mouth again, the old man Chen on the side threw the spoon in his hand into the bowl and said sharply.

Seeing that Old Man Chen looked like he was about to start preaching again, Xiaoxi hurriedly hugged the bowl and moved his buttocks outward slightly. And Chen Yubin pouted, not daring to chirp anymore, holding the bowl, lowering his head, scooping small bites with a spoon and eating.

"How many times have I said it, don't chirp when you eat, I've said it so many times, I just can't remember it, right...... It's rude to smack...... You eat now, don't change this problem, you have grown up in two days, and you will marry a daughter-in-law, and you will go to the door of your mother-in-law, and you will be very ...... to make people say that you are very ."

"Poof, haha......" Hearing that Old Man Chen was talking about marrying his daughter-in-law, Xiaoxi couldn't help it, so he laughed out loud.

Hearing his granddaughter's laughter, Old Man Chen reacted, he said something he shouldn't have said, he was suddenly a little uncomfortable, and he didn't say anything more, picked up the bowl in his hand, and opened the planing.

"Marry a daughter-in-law~" Xiaoxi squeezed his eyes at Chen Yubin and teased.

Although he was still young, Chen Yubin already knew what it meant to marry a daughter-in-law, his face was flushed, and he didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry. was used by his sister to make a joke about himself, Chen Yubin looked at the old man Chen who was about to say this complainingly, and his eyes burned with raging anger.

After eating the hawthorn, Old Man Chen got up and picked up four small bowls, and the stream stopped, "Master, put it here, I'll wash it later, you sit on yours." ”

"Give it to me, isn't it just a few bowls, I'll wash it easily, you've been busy all day, rest a little more." Xiaoxi still had to push, but Old Man Chen snatched the bowl in Xiaoxi's hand, and then took Granny Chen's bowl, so he found a scoop and scooped a scoop of cold water.

"Master, then boil some hot water to wash, that water freezes your hands. "The well water in this winter can be pulled out, although the house is a little better, but it is also frozen.

"It's okay, just these few bowls, what's the kind of frozen hands. "I quickly washed a few bowls, put them back in the cupboard, and inserted the spoon into the chopstick holder.

After lifting the lids of the two pots and fumbling in the pots for a while, Old Man Chen raised his head and said to Xiaoxi: "This bean is still a little hard, the pumpkin and the red weed are almost ripe, wait a while." ”

Because red beans and mung beans are not easy to cook, they are time-consuming, and they will become soft after boiling for a long time. For example, when you cook mung bean porridge at home, most of the time the beans you eat are a little hard.

After closing the lid on the pot, he sat back on the fire, opened his hands, and baked the moisture from his hands.

After resting for a while, he felt that it was almost over, so Xiaoxi got up, walked to the stove, drew a pair of chopsticks, lifted the lid of the pot, and inserted a few red lotus with chopsticks.

took an iron basin, picked out all the red roots, brought them to the dining table, and took a clean basin and put it aside, "Master, you peel off the skin of these red roots, pay attention to hot hands." ”

When the pot outside stopped boiling, Granny Chen withdrew all the firewood from the pot hole into the pot hole inside, got up and washed her hands, sat down at the dining table, and peeled the red skin.

Xiaoxi turned around and used a wet towel to carry the two pumpkins to the cutting board, took out the grid and continued to hang it back in place, and changed the lid of the pot to a smaller one, so that the heat ran slower and the beans were easier to cook.

Take the pumpkin stalk, cut the pumpkin in half with a kitchen knife, and scrape the melon pulp and seeds with a pot and spoon.

Because the pumpkin is cut in half and then steamed in the pot, the excess water vapor will run into the melon flesh, and the water will increase, and there will be a kind of sweetness of water, not the original glutinous sweetness. Don't cut it in half, just steam it in the pot, and the thick shell of the pumpkin keeps the water vapor out, so there is no excess water, and it does not affect the taste.

After carefully scraping all the pumpkin pulps, Xiaoxi used a pot and spoon to carefully scrape off the melon flesh layer by layer and put it in a basin. There is no need to go through the process of crushing the pumpkin puree, which is directly scraped off the fine pumpkin puree.

"Xiaoxi, what do you want to do with this peeled red let?" Old Man Chen brought the basin with the peeled red lotus to the board and asked Xiaoxi.

"Master, smash all these red buds and mash them into mud. Xiaoxi said busily.

"That's fine. "Pick up the iron basin and go out.

"Eh~ Wait, master, this red lotus is enough to rake, just use a rolling pin to pound it in the basin, what are you doing outside, trouble. The brook quickly grabbed the edge of the basin and blocked it.

Rake means soft, and it feels a little worse than soft.

"Oh. Then he put the basin back on the board and found an arm-long rolling pin, not thick enough to hold with one hand. In this way, you can free up one hand to hold the edge of the pot.

Seeing that the stream was scraping the pumpkin puree, Old Man Chen felt that the board was a little small, and he couldn't use it, so he returned to the dinner table with the basin. Although the dining table is much smaller than the board, there are no obstacles on either side to hinder his hands and feet, and it does not prevent him from spreading it.

Asked Chen Yubin to help him hold the edge of the basin, and the old man Chen changed a wooden stick for making cold powder, held it with both hands, and tinkered with red roots.

After scraping off the flesh of the four-petal pumpkin, leaving only four empty shells, Xiaoxi washed his hands, walked over and threw the melon skin on the table, leaving it for Chen Yubin to play later. He said to Mr. Chen, "Master, I want to use some glutinous rice flour." ”

Old Man Chen tinkered with the red lotus hand, and said with some hesitation: "Those glutinous rice noodles are to be used to wrap glutinous rice balls, and you use ...... now."

"Master, anyway, what we have is glutinous rice, you just need to turn on the machine and make dots. Xiaoxi motioned to Old Man Chen himself, there was more glutinous rice, and asked him not to worry.

"Okay, you can get it yourself, you know where to put it anyway. Old Man Chen nodded in agreement.

"Huh. Xiaoxi happily answered, and went out to get glutinous rice flour.

"You're used to her, this glutinous rice flour is used to wrap glutinous rice balls on the fifteenth, you toss her now, if it's not enough later, I'll see what you do." Granny Chen stuffed a few more big firewood into the pot hole, put down the tongs, rolled her eyes at Old Man Chen, and complained. This dead woman, the idea is getting bigger and bigger, how can she get it in the future.

Old Man Chen smiled indifferently, "It's okay, if it's not enough, I'll just take the time to make some glutinous rice noodles, don't delay." ”

"That's right, anyway, my sister won't waste it, it's all used to make good food. Chen Yubin also helped her sister to justify.

Yes, these three are all in a group, I can't say it myself, forget it, don't say it, whatever they do, let them toss, no matter what she does, no matter what she does.

"Grandpa, I brought all the glutinous rice noodles. Xiaoxi slipped the bag in his hand and motioned for Old Man Chen to show it.

"Ah~ What are you doing here, you can scoop it as much as you want, you take it all here, it's dirty......" before she said that she didn't care, as soon as she heard that Xiaoxi had brought the whole bag of glutinous rice flour, Granny Chen jumped anxiously.

"That's right, Xiaoxi, if you want to use it, just scoop two scoops over, what are you doing with them all?" He was also worried that Xiaoxi and a child's family would run out of it, and it would be a pity if they couldn't be used up and dirty.

"Master, I'm thinking about using these glutinous rice flour to make some glutinous rice balls now. Putting the bag of glutinous rice flour on the board, Xiaoxi leaned over to Old Man Chen and said.

"Hmm, what are you doing now?" Old Man Chen was very puzzled, this was still early on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and suddenly his mind turned around, and he suddenly realized, "Oh~ You mean, make it now, don't be busy that day, just cook it ......"

"No, grandpa. Xiaoxi interrupted, "I'm going to make some dumplings without filling." ”

"Well, there is no filling, is it still a rice ball? How can you eat it without a filling?" Old Man Chen has eaten all the rice balls with fillings over the years, and he has never heard of rice balls without fillings.

"Xiaoxi, you don't wrap a good rice ball, you will be blind for a day, don't waste food. "Granny Chen has never heard of tangyuan without stuffing, thinking that Xiaoxi is making trouble, Granny Chen criticized.
