Chapter 156: New Year's Greetings
Yu Fei had never eaten such fragrant dumplings! The thin skin and big filling, tender and juicy, the meat was fragrant, and the smooth texture of the dough seemed to make it seem that one dumpling after another had grown legs, and they would slip into his mouth! It was the time to grow his body, and he was not afraid of eating at all! Yu Fei ate six plates one plate after another! Roughly calculated, there were more than 100!
But it was indeed delicious, even Li Qin, who had a small amount of food, ate two plates! And the two lynxes were hungry for a long time, and finally they disliked one of each. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć But seeing that Li Qin and Yu Fei were only interested in eating hard, they didn't pay attention to them at all, so they bit all the dumplings open, and ate the hot, fragrant and tender meat filling inside, and the dough was pulled aside.
By the time Li Qin found out, the two guys had already pulled all the dumplings in their rice bowls!
Li Qin shook his head helplessly, and it happened that the hounds hadn't eaten either, so he took the rest of the dough and a lot of vegetable soup out and gave it to the hounds. The two lynx still had to dangle in front of the hound, glancing at the dog's rice bowl from time to time, "whoosh", full of tsundere!
The two of them made a total of three curtains of dumplings, but they ate two caps in one meal. However, Li Qin was not distressed at all, and said: "Next time, we won't eat mutton filling, we will eat pork sauerkraut!"
Yu Fei nodded hurriedly, Li Qin loves to eat whatever he wants!
The rest of the curtain dumplings have been frozen for a meal. Li Qin put them in a clean cloth bag and hung them in the shed, so that whenever he wanted to eat them, he could take them into the house and cook them at any time.
"On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, dust and sweep the house. It is said that "dust" and "Chen" are homonyms, and sweeping dust on this day has the meaning of "removing Chen Buxin", and it can sweep away all "poor luck" and "bad luck". This is especially important when they have just moved to a new home.
Early in the morning of the twenty-fourth morning, the two had just eaten breakfast and were busy in the house.
Yu Fei took the broom and first swept the cobwebs and soil on the beams in the house, and then wiped the house together.
From the time when Yu Fei swept the ashes, the two lynx showed full disgust, took tsundere's small steps, and lay on the bud bones under the shed outside the house, licking their fur and little paws incessantly.
When the house is cleaned inside and out, it will not be too early, stretch the waist that has been tired for a day, and then look at the new house, it will be worth everything.
After sweeping the house at the twenty-fourth, it is time to change the window paper and paste the window flowers on the twenty-fifth.
Early in the morning of the twenty-five-one, the two had just cleaned up their home and went out to buy window paper.
The market in the town is very lively, especially for the Chinese New Year, the small street next to the commercial street, almost all of them are set up with small stalls of various colors, and the shops on the commercial street are also moving things outside the house, although the cold wind is fierce, everyone's hands and faces are frozen red, but looking at the crowd of people shoulder to shoulder, I don't know that it is cold.
There are a lot of people on the street. The two of them walked down the street, and if they didn't pay attention, they would be scattered by the crowd. After several searches, Yu Fei grabbed Li Qin's jacket sleeve while opening the way for her in front.
Li Qin is small and has little energy, and she was staggered by the crowd several times, but after being caught by Yu Fei, she just looked at Yu Fei's tall back. It's amazing to just look at a goal, step by step, and follow it closely.
Li Qin only used more than one or two taels of silver borrowed from the Ge family, so when they came out at this time, the two of them didn't worry about money at all. In fact, in the town, except for the more expensive houses, all other consumption is not high, and five taels of silver is almost the consumption of an ordinary family in the town for nearly a year, so Li Qin can buy boldly with confidence, and there is no need to worry about the lack of money at all.
After buying the window paper, the left and right people also came out, so they took the New Year's things with them to buy them, and when there were not enough things, they added them as they went.
After this decision, the two of them bought more things.
"Pork?"
"Buy!"
"Lamb?"
"Buy!"
"River fish?"
"Buy!"
"Lanterns?"
"Buy!"
Then twist, spring couplets, hairy, hazelnuts, roosters, frozen pears...... I bought almost anything I saw, until I couldn't carry it in my hand, and then I realized that I had bought a little too much!
"Sugar gourd!" is probably buying and buying if you have money, Yu Fei, who is still unsatisfied, shouted excitedly when he saw the sugar gourd, just like when he had just bought a lot of things.
"Buy!"
Yu Fei carried a large cloth bag on his back, which contained the meat, nuts, and frozen pears he bought, and two lanterns in his hands. And Li Qin was holding something like twist flowers. I couldn't take it anymore, so I bought two more strings of sugar gourds, so the two of them looked really embarrassed. Yu Fei didn't hold it at all, so Li Qin held the things he had just bought in one hand, plus a sugar gourd, and the other hand just held the sugar gourd, in response to the howling cold wind, you and I ate the red fruits on it one by one.
Eating while walking, it is inevitable that it will be a little slow, but when I get home, the sugar gourd will be eaten.
Yu Fei smashed his mouth, and he always felt unfinished.
"Ming'er, you go out and buy some hawthorn and come back, I'll make it for you!"
Yu Fei's eyes lit up, and he nodded busily.
"I also saw that there are yams for sale, you can also buy some when the time comes, yams can also be made into sugar gourds!"
In the end, it was a child, Yu Fei smiled and showed two rows of neat teeth, very satisfied.
When they got home, they began to change the window paper.
Yu Fei cut in the house, and Li Qin went to the outhouse to boil the paste.
The paste is made with white flour and water, and as long as you watch the fire, there is no problem. In a few moments, a pot of viscous paste was ready.
It was cold, so the two tore off a piece of window paper and glued it together, and after a while, the window paper at home was pasted.
In the evening, Li Qin used the frozen tofu he just bought, plus pork belly and Chinese cabbage, and stewed a big pot. Coupled with the leftovers from the previous two days, I was very satisfied.
"Twenty-six, stewed meat. "On the twenty-sixth day, it is time to start preparing for the New Year's meal.
Yu Fei bought a lot of meat yesterday, backbone, loin, pork leg, five flowers, almost everything, Li Qin boiled a large pot of hot water, washed the backbone and split pork legs, and put it in the pot, and then added a little salt, ingredients, and peppercorns, and boiled for an hour or two, and the whole house was full of meat fragrance.
At this moment, not only the two lynx were in a hurry, but also the hounds, which were also banging on the door from time to time outside. It's so fragrant, and everyone is not calm anymore.
