Chapter 5: The Magical Fertile Soil ---8
Yueshan, Yuehe was busy with his disaster relief farm work, after a big meal at Yueshan's house, they drove to Yuedi's dormitory, nine people of all sizes crowded Yuedi's dormitory, the dormitory is a two-bedroom and one-hall layout, Yuedi lived in a relatively large room, the smaller bedroom was left for two boys and children, Li Yujing and Li Yuqian lived in the same room with her, Sun Lirong commanded everyone to do this and that like a general, Yuehe hung curtains, Yueshan assembled the furniture that had not yet been installed, Yuedi cleaned up her piano, Zhao Xiaoli cleaned up the kitchen, Sun Lirong commanded while cleaning, and several children let the sheep go, no one cared about them, Li Lichun and Li Lixia discussed in their own room where to sleep and where to do their homework, Li Yujing and Li Yuqian were playing crazy on the bed made by Yuedi, they wrestled on the bed, just like the animal world, Li Yuqian was two years older, and her strength was naturally much greater than Li Yujing, she was also a little afraid that her sister's snot would rub on her face, so she was a little bit afraid of her sister's snot rubbing on her face, so she was a little bit hiding from her sister, Li Yujing didn't know the severity, in the game without rules, Li Yujing was about to lose, she was ruthless, and directly bit Li Yuqian, Li Yuqian cried in pain, Zhao Xiaoli rushed in and found that Li Yuqian's arm was bitten out of deep tooth marks, and she called Sun Lirong angrily, to be held accountable, Sun Lirong didn't say a word, and slapped Li Yujing's buttocks hard, and Li Yujing also cried. The mediation here is not over yet, Li Lichun and Li Lixia quarreled again, and then a fight broke out, Yuehe pulled away the two little guys and played them each with fifty boards, Yuedi's dormitory became very popular, and there was really a little bit of the artistic conception of chickens and dogs jumping and children crying.
The dormitory was cleaned up, Yueshan and Yuehe sat down, Yuedi called the four children to him, asked them to stand in line, stand upright, and reprimanded, which means that they are disobedient and do not study well, so they will close the door and feed the wolves, there are really wolves here, of course, the school will not have them, the chickens and ducks of Yueshan Yuehe have been eaten by wolves, and the children all know that their chickens and ducks are eaten by wolves, Yuedi told the children to be humble to each other, not to compete, Li Lichun wants to take his younger brothers and sisters, and he must have the appearance of a big brother. The four parents also reprimanded their children, scaring them and saying, if you are disobedient, you will not be wanted, let old Hasa take them away, and never see your parents again. The four children are honest, Yue Di continued to reprimand, those who go to school will be tested for the top few in the class, and the ten will not be given food after that. Every day, I practice the piano alone, not seriously, and I play a hand!
Everything is ready, it's getting late, my brother and sister-in-law are going home, the children should go to bed, Yuedi is already twelve o'clock after doing these things, he still needs to see the Chinese class tomorrow morning, until the evening there is no sleepiness at all, he really wants to touch the piano, but it is too late, the children are falling asleep, let's talk about it tomorrow.
She wanted to walk around the campus, he opened the door, quietly walked out of the dormitory, the campus has been very quiet, the sky is like a wash, a bright moon hangs in the air like a silver plate, only far away from the moon is a few stars that appear and disappear from time to time, the moonlight is like flowing water, quietly pouring on the flowers and plants on the campus, clearly depicting the elongated black shadow of Yue Di, Yue Di has been very careful about her steps, but still clearly out of the "da-da-da" The sound, tonight's moonlight, reminded her of a walk with Sun Ce on the threshing floor six years ago, and it was also such a moonlit night, it was Sun Ce's admission to Nancheng University, and his father Sun Jiachang played a movie in order to celebrate his son's admission to college. Today's moonlight is brighter than that day, the golden moonlight downstairs between the sparse and falling trees, on a golden background, the moonlight depicts a huge ink landscape, the small insects that swim at night and then chirp in a low voice, calling friends, tonight is a good time to whisper, but in this moonlight, Yue Di can only wander alone, Sun Ce's letters he has read countless times, go to the United States, go to the United States can do something, can't do anything, be a parasite for his brother, in case Sun Ce has a little extra thoughts that day, what else can he rely on, besides, he pursues an independent life, and he doesn't want to rely on his brother for a lifetime。 Music, I still have to pick up the music again anyway, I have been away from the piano for several months, I haven't practiced for several months, my voice has long been rusty, the previous Huang Lu's training plan, I only completed a small part, this time of delay, the level that has been improved, a stop, back to the original point, all training has to start from scratch, fortunately, I now have a chance to be a teacher, no matter whether it is a music teacher or not, the school is a cultural place after all, even if you practice your own voice, no one will find it strange, it is definitely not appropriate to practice at night, then go to practice in the morning, go to the track and field in the morning, there should be no problem。
Yuedi planned, if you cook for the child for half an hour, eat for half an hour, 20 minutes on the way to school, it will take an hour and a half, and it is ten o'clock for you to go to work, then you must prepare breakfast for the child at half past eight, if you want to practice for an hour, then the time to get up should be seven o'clock in the morning, the school allows you to pick up the child a little earlier at noon, and there is no problem with picking up Li Yujing by yourself, and you can also let Li Lichun pick up her sister, so that you can go back to the dormitory a little earlier to prepare lunch for the children, there is no time to play the piano at noon, and the teacher who has no class in the afternoon can not sit in class, and can prepare for class at homeThis is a good time to practice singing and practicing, after school in the afternoon, you can teach children to practice, you can take children to play in the evening, or you can take your children to this playground to sing in the early time period. Yue Di strolls in the moonlight, arranging her work, life and study plans.
In the early morning of May in Xinjiang, there was some coolness, at seven o'clock in the morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Yuedi practiced in the center of the track and field, and practiced for half an hour, Yuedi seemed to find a little feeling, she wanted to sing a song, try again, and see how she had regressed to that extent, she let go of her voice and sang a very familiar song - "Ode to Sister-in-law" , Quiet early morning, Yue Di's singing voice is very penetrating, just now the practice attracted the early teachers and students to stop, singing made the stoppers surround, after listening to a song, the onlookers did not want to leave, have asked to sing again, Yue Di has not been this feeling of being watched for a long time, she came to some interest, anyway, practice singing, sing it, one after another, endless, she almost forgot the time, almost to nine o'clock, she suddenly remembered that there were a few children in the dormitory to eat, she rushed back to the dormitory, before entering the door, I heard two or three children crying at home, Li Yuqian, Li Yujing woke up, they found that the place they lived was not much the same as usual, and they didn't see their mother when they got up, so they thought they were taken away by the old Hassa, so they cried, although Li Lichun had to coax them, but they couldn't stop howling, Li Yujing was even more noisy to find her mother, she couldn't see her mother, Li Yujing cried very sadly, she kept sobbing, tears and snot touched her face, Yuedi went into the house, and saw her aunt coming back, the four children seemed to have some sense of security, Yuedi hugged Li Yujing, kept apologizing to the children, washed Li Yujing's face, and asked the other three to wash themselves quickly, it was too late to make breakfast, can only go to the school cafeteria to have breakfast first, Yue Di let the three children who went to school bring their school bags, led Li Yujing, and rushed into the school cafeteria, the time they entered the cafeteria was already nine o'clock, if Yue Di herself, she could finish breakfast in five minutes, but with four children, although Li Lichun was older, he basically couldn't do anything, Yue Di could only arrange for him to take care of his younger brothers and sisters, Yue Di was between the window and the dining table, running back and forth, as soon as he turned around, the three little guys fought again in order to snatch more eggs, Li Lixia pushed Li Yuqian to the ground, Li Lichun was going to pull away, and was bitten by Li Lixia, wiped her tears on the side in pain, Li Yujing saw her brother beating her sister, she was so happy that she "babbled" and jumped and jumped, Yuedi was so angry, she put down the food in her hand, grabbed Li Lixia, and slapped him on the buttocks, and ordered him sternly, "Sit down, hit people again, bite people and tear your mouth again!" Several children didn't finish eating breakfast for half an hour, Li Yujing still had to chase and feed, Yuedi was anxious, just forget if she didn't eat, anyway, there was an extra meal in the kindergarten, and it was only twenty minutes before the class time, she decisively ordered that Lichun take her sister Li Yujing to the kindergarten, and was responsible for picking up her sister back at noon, so that Lixia and Li Yuqian could go quickly, they couldn't fight on the road, and then they were fighting, and they were not allowed to eat at noon, Yuedi rushed back to the dormitory, quickly washed her face, took a picture of her image, picked up the textbook and flew into the teaching building.
After class in the morning, Yuedi was half an hour ahead of schedule, and when she returned home, she had to hurry up and make lunch, otherwise the little things would come back, just like the ones released in the cell, Yuedi took rice to cook, how much is appropriate, a small bowl of rice per person, a bowl of rice is about 250 grams, and five bowls of rice are more than a kilogram, because considering that she wants to cook for the children, when Yueshan bought a rice cooker, she bought an 8-liter cauldron, Yuedi took into account that the children could eat, and added a little rice to make the rice. The mutton in the refrigerator was put in the refrigerator last night, it was easier to cut, cut four or five large potatoes, made braised mutton, and fried a vegetarian cabbage. Made tomato and egg soup. Everything was done and the kids returned. Before the people entered the door, the shouts of "Auntie, I'm hungry" came in, Yue Di hurriedly arranged for them to eat, a few guys first started with braised mutton, but just after eating a bite, they spit it out, Yue Di felt strange, taste it herself, the mutton is too hard, you can't eat it at all, not only that, the smell is too big, you can't eat it, try the vegetarian cabbage, it's okay, the taste is very good, drink some soup, it's very delicious, even the mutton itself has never done it before, who knows it's so difficult to cook. He asked the children to eat vegetables, not to eat meat first, and then to eat meat next meal, but no one listened to him for a few children, except for eating some artichoke pieces, the cabbage didn't move the chopsticks, eating and eating, Li Yuqian cried, Yuedi was inexplicable, and hurriedly asked what she was crying about, Li Yuqian told her aunt that she had no meat to eat, and she felt uncomfortable, Li Yujing didn't want to eat, Yuedi fed it a mouthful of cabbage, and her head shook like a rattle, Li Lichun, Li Lixia was sullen, eating white rice weakly, not eating a mouthful of food, Yuedi gave them vegetables, Lichun barely endured, looking at the expression of swallowing, it was as uncomfortable as eating potassium cyanide, Lixia didn't eat, mischievous, deliberately tossed the cabbage to the side of the bowl, making a table of meals. Lichun served the second meal, scraped the rice in the pot clean, when Lixia served the second meal, there was no more in the pot, threw the bowl into the basin, stood by the door, tears flowed, he didn't dare to cry, this morning his aunt had cleaned him up, just where to sob, Yuedi felt that she seemed to have committed a great sin, she pulled Lixia over, comforted a little, and then gave the children five yuan each, let them buy snacks by themselves, this time, the children burst into tears and laughed.
A meal, let Yue Di deeply feel that it is not easy to bring these little guys, the children's large amount of food, out of her surprise, especially that Li Lichun and Li Lixia, is really scared to death, half the size, eat poor old man, this is not true at all, children love to eat meat, no meat can not eat, children are reluctant to eat vegetarian dishes, basically do not drink soup, these habits really give this aunt a slap in the head, it seems that in the future, you have to ask for the children's opinions, otherwise it will be the same as the stepmother. However, these habits are not good, they need to be changed, but they will be changed at once, the children must not accept it, they must take their time, and drink some soup before eating, it is easy to eat enough, and it is not easy to eat too much, if only the children had such a habit, Yuedi summed it up.
The children quickly bought back their favorite snacks, the puppy gnawed bones and ate with relish, chasing the aunt, to share with her, Yuedi does not like to eat snacks, in order to make the children happy, taste, but also pretend to be too delicious, those small foods taste really good, even the instant noodles are so crispy and crispy, the children love to eat, there is a reason.
When she went to school in the afternoon, Yuedi asked the children what to eat at night, the children's opinions were more unanimous, they wanted to eat noodles, my mother, didn't this embarrass Yuedi, how could Yuedi do noodles, she had only been in Xinjiang for a month, and she had never eaten noodles once, and Yuedi always had a feeling of disgust when she saw others eating noodles, because the noodles looked like fat worms in the stomach, but the children loved to eat, what should I do, there was no class in the afternoon, I could study and study in the house to meet the children's requirements, after all, they had just left their parents to live, and they should give them a little more warmth。 Yue Di thought so, but making a strip is something he has never done before, and he has no way to start, what should he do, he found the teacher next door, hoping to learn from him,
In the dormitory next door is a male teacher, named Gao Shujun, a native of Kuitun, Xinjiang, 27 years old, tall, very handsome, teaching high school chemistry. Yue Di explained that Teacher Gao was very enthusiastic and willing to help. Yue Di invited Teacher Gao into her room, Teacher Gao found Yue Di's piano, I wanted to touch it, Yue Di asked him to play a song, Teacher Gao was very embarrassed, said that he had not learned, he couldn't play, but he liked to listen to piano music, Yue Di modestly said that he had learned before, but he didn't play well, he wanted to listen, he could play a song, Yue Di was worried about disturbing other teachers to prepare for class or rest, and wanted to close the door, Teacher Gao said that there was no problem, I hope Yue Di would not close the door, Yue Di thought, it is likely that Teacher Gao is worried about the so-called "men and women do not kiss" , I also agreed with Mr. Gao's idea of not closing the door, Yue Di sat down, a little audition, a song "Dedicated to Alice" flowed out at Yue Di's fingertips, the music sound is clear and soft, Xinghai brand piano is really good, the timbre is very pure, Yue Di fingering is skillful, Teacher Gao was soon attracted by the stream-like sound of the piano, unconsciously, Yue Di stood at the door of several young teachers of men and women, they all crept in, for fear of stepping on the music all over the ground. After playing the song, the teachers applauded warmly, and Yue Di realized that the room was crowded into a dozen or so uninvited guests at some point, and he only knew two or three of these teachers well, and the power of music brought them together.
Everyone praised one after another, "Mr. Li played so well, it was just like an audio tape."
"It's much better than tapes, how can tapes have such pure timbre."
"Teacher Li, let's do another song."
Yuedi: "Teachers find a place to sit, oops, maybe there are not enough stools, so it doesn't disturb everyone."
"What's the matter? Don't bother us, let's stand for a while and keep playing."
Yue Di: "In the future, I may have to practice for an hour or two every day and sing for an hour, will it affect everyone, my major in college is music."
"You practice, we just want to hear it, you should be able to sell tickets at your level."
"Thank you for the compliment, I'll play it for you again, everyone wants to hear it, you can come in at any time."
"We want to hear and learn from you."
"This ...... This one...... It's a bit embarrassing, and I also brought my brother's four children, but it's okay to study and learn once in a while."
Teacher Gao Shujun said: "Originally, today Teacher Li asked me to teach her to make noodles, she said that children want to eat noodles, I came to teach her, I saw the piano, I asked her to play a song, I didn't expect such a high level, so I taught him to make noodles first, wake up noodles, and then play it in 20 minutes, everyone go back to prepare for a while class, and I will call you later."
Everyone understands the procedure of making noodles, and they all happily evacuated, Yuedi didn't understand, Teacher Gao told him that it takes more time to make noodles, but as long as you are familiar with it, it is also very fast, this is a special food in Xinjiang, so children love to eat. Yue Di thought to herself, so that's the case, I said how can those four villains have such a unified opinion, it turns out to be a Xinjiang special food! Dog things, it can really torture people.
Gao Shujun took the noodles, he asked Yuedi how many servings she needed to make, Yuedi thought about it and said, make six servings, he counted Mr. Gao's, Mr. Gao was very happy, he took six small bowls of noodles, each bowl was about 200 grams, Yuedi asked him to add two more bowls of flour, saying that the children were not full at noon, Mr. Gao took the noodles and mixed a small half basin of brine in a small basin, tasted, slightly salty, she asked Yuedi to taste it too, saying that the saltiness was just right, he told Yuedi that the salt water could be a little more each time, so as not to have enough water, the salinity of the second addition of water was inconsistent, and it was okay to pour it if it was not used up, and it was not a waste of anything, Mr. Gao began to add water to the noodles, stirring the flour with his hands while adding waterHe began to knead the dough vigorously, kneading for about 10 minutes, there was no trace of flour in the basin, the basin was clean, the surface of the dough was already very smooth, she asked Yuedi to touch the skin of the dough, feel the degree of harmony, and then sealed the basin with a piece of plastic wrap and put it aside, and after about ten minutes, Mr. Gao opened the plastic wrap, she asked Yuedi to touch it again, pressed the dough with her fingers, the dough was softer than before, Mr. Gao put the dough on the panel and pressed it into a large cake, with a thickness of about one centimeter, and cut the dough into noodles with the thickness of the index finger with a knife, then roll the noodles into a circle, one by one in the basin, the plate layer by layer and then brush a layer of oil, and finally seal the basin with plastic wrap, prepare the dishes, Yue Di took out the mutton, Mr. Gao cut it, add some diced onions, a little soy sauce, a little starch and salt monosodium glutamate, grabbed it and put it aside, Mr. Gao cut a small half pot of cabbage, a few green peppers, two tomatoes, cut the rest of the onions, prepared a small pile of ginger, onions and garlic, all the preparations are over, Mr. Gao told Yue Di that this is the easiest way to learn to make ramen, ramen is a technical job, other practices need training, this practice does not require training。
Teacher Gao finished these preparations, it took about 40 minutes, because to teach Li Yuedi how to make ramen, plus the amount of cooking is relatively large, so it is a little slower, Yuedi is very grateful, she asked Teacher Gao to rest, you can call everyone to listen to the music, Yuedi began to play the piano, and then sang for an hour in a row, until 6:10 in the afternoon, the children are about to get out of school, his performance and singing stopped, and continued to make noodles.
A large pot of water quickly boiled, Mr. Gao asked Yue Di to pay attention to the movements of his hands, Mr. Gao pulled out a noodle with his left hand, kept twisting the thumb and index finger of his right hand, and pulled back quickly with his left hand, and after a while, a large ball was pulled out on the panel, and then, the noodles were wrapped around his hands like knitting a sweater and inverted line, and he slowly pulled it a few times rhythmically, and then beat it vigorously on the panel, the action was like a white crane with bright wings, beautiful and abnormal, the noodles were beaten very thinly, and then put it in a boiling pot, slightly plucked with chopsticks, and waited until the water boiled again, boiled for another minute or two, and then fished out, put it in cold water or cold boiled water, the noodles ended, and stir-friedMr. Gao poured a small half pot of oil, burned until the oil surface was a little smoky, poured the marinated meat into it, passed the oil, took it out in a minute or two, poured out the oil in the pot, washed the pot, added two tablespoons of oil after heating, and then added two tablespoons of oil after stir-frying the oiled mutton, added various seasonings of the vegetables, thickened, and served, and a noodle dish with full color and fragrance was ready. At this time, the children all came back, and when they saw their noodles, they were all happy and didn't know what their last names were. One person has a big plate, sucking and sucking and eating, the children eat very fragrant, Yue Di also eats, the taste is really beautiful, alas, which children don't like to eat vegetables, they don't like to eat their aunt's fried vegetarian cabbage, so that's the case! After a meal, the fight is not fighting, and my mother doesn't want to think about it, and all of them are dancing with their eyebrows. Li Yuqian stayed to practice, Li Lichun took his younger brothers and sisters out to play, let them go crazy, otherwise they should find their mother again in a while.
The moon rose, Yue Di found the three children who were crazy on the playground, Li Lichun wanted to listen to her aunt sing, Yue Di sang a song to them "Little Two Cattle Herding", and a large number of people still came around, and they couldn't come to the stage to ...... as usual.
Back in the dormitory, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening, Yuedi's class tomorrow was not ready, he sent the child to prepare for bed, she wanted to see tomorrow's class, a few little guys came to exhaust her in a day, only four children, parents have raised five children, it is really not easy, there is a saying: "Raising children knows the kindness of parents". That's the case, Yue Di misses her parents a little, she wants to call home, look at the time, it's too late, let's talk about it tomorrow.......
