Chapter 86 Dragon Boat Festival

"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good, sex is similar, and habits are far away......"

After Yuan Anping and the children memorized the three-character scripture they learned, they announced: "Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, everyone has a day off, and classes will be normal the day after tomorrow." The top 10 students in today's exam stay, and I have prizes for you. ”

The children were very happy to hear that they could have a day off and a day of fun during the holidays. I also heard that there were rewards for the top 10 in the exam, and of course I envied those children.

Yuan Anping went out to get the prize, and the child who did well in the exam happily guessed what prize he would get.

"What do you say Brother Anping wants to send us?"

"Since it's a holiday, it should be given to us to eat, right?"

"According to what you say, Brother Anping will send us zongzi?"

"It should be, it's the Dragon Boat Festival after all."

"I don't think it's right, we give out prizes because we do well in the exam, and we don't give us holiday gifts."

"But tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, and the rice dumplings are very harmonious with the festival."

"Li Zi, do you know what prizes Brother Anping will give? Students who attend classes in the morning should also be given prizes, right? ”

As a teaching assistant, Li Zi and them, because they had a class in the morning, and the new students also got prizes for the exam, so they all knew what Yuan Anping was going to send to them.

Of course Li Zi knew, but he didn't plan to say it, he smiled and said, "What are you anxious about, won't you know right away?" It's a good thing anyway. ”

Seeing the appearance of Li Zi, the students looked forward to it even more.

Yuan Anping came to the hall: "Xiaohan, have you packed the prizes for them?" ”

"It's loaded, it's in the basket on the table. The top three are the top three. ”

Yuan Anping looked into the basket and found that it was wrapped in paper bags, "Okay, I'll take it and send it to them." ”

Carrying a basket that was not light, Yuan Anping entered the classroom with a smile: "Come and get the prize." Because tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, I will also join in the fun and send you some things that you can use for the festival. ”

The students all gathered around.

Some anxious couldn't help but ask: "Brother Anping, what is the prize?" ”

"Golden dates." In fact, it is a hard date, something stored in his space. Because this kind of hard dates are very sweet and contain a lot of sugar, and fewer people eat them after everyone pays more attention to health, making the price of this kind of dates very cheap. Because of the large sugar content, Yuan Anping, who thought that he would encounter a disaster such as the end of the world, bought a lot, after all, sugar can provide a lot of calories.

Yuan Anping opened the paper package: "This is a very sweet date." It can be eaten as sugar, or it can be used for cooking, and tomorrow during the Dragon Boat Festival, you can let your family wrap it in zongzi. He has seen people who like sweets, and they just eat this kind of candied dates for cooking porridge directly, anyway, he can't stand it.

These children have all seen dates, and there are many dates in the village. But they could see at a glance the difference between dates and what they usually ate. The child who received the prize pinched the hard jujube and felt very novel, he had never seen this kind of jujube.

Some of the children wanted to try it, but because the first three students were given fifteen and the next three students were only ten, and they had a lot of families, they decided to take it home and share it with their families.

The children left happily, Li Dongfeng took his bag of dates, he was the second place, so there were fifteen dates. He happily returned home: "Father, mother, I'm back." ”

Dongfeng Niang came out of the house: "Come back, there is water in the yard, you go wash your face." "My son has been paying more attention to it since he went to school, and at first they only did what his husband told them, and although they found it troublesome, they did it. But gradually they noticed a big difference, and the difference between the children who went to school and the children who played crazy in the village could be seen at a glance. The hands and faces are clean, and the clothes are neatly dressed. It's no longer the same as before, the snot drags long, and the clothes are so dirty that you can't see the original color.

Li Dongfeng entered the house: "Mother, I took the second place in the exam today, and Brother Anping gave out the prize." He opened the paper bag, "This is a date, Brother Anping said that this date is particularly sweet." ”

Hearing that his son did well in the exam, a smile bloomed on his face: "Dongfeng is powerful." As he spoke, he looked at the dates curiously, took one and pinched it: "How hard is it." This powder? She added the powdered sugar on her fingers, "It's so sweet." What kind of date is this, how do you return the powdered sugar? ”

"Brother Anping said that it can be eaten directly, or it can be wrapped in zongzi."

"I'm going to cut one with a knife and taste it." Dongfeng Niang thinks that this jujube may be the same as the hard candy, and it is good to use it to cut one and taste it first.

"If it's delicious, I'll send some to grandpa." Their family is one of the few families in the village who have separated early, and they don't live with their grandparents, but their parents are filial, and they will send some to their grandparents if they have something delicious. Separated families, there are fewer disputes, and everyone has a good relationship.

Li Dongfeng went out to wash his face, Dongfeng Niang went to the kitchen to cut the dates with a knife, and saw the dates pits: "There are also cores, the same as ordinary dates." She pinched some crumbs and put them in her mouth to smash them, "It's so sweet, it's like sugar." I don't know if it's added with sugar, or if it's originally like this. I couldn't help but think, "If this is the case, this date can be used directly as sugar." ”

Dongfeng Niang let Li Dongfeng taste it: "It's very sweet, like sugar and jujube flavor." ”

Li Dongfeng tasted half of the slice, "It's delicious." Mother, how much do you send to your grandparents? ”

Dongfeng Niang looked at the number: "Let's keep four, tomorrow my mother will wrap you in zongzi to eat." Send those ten to your grandparents. "Thinking of keeping four, their family of three, my son can eat two dumplings with this kind of dates.

"Okay, I'll deliver it."

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Zhong Sunrui got up early in the morning. Today's Dragon Boat Festival, festivals are always very happy.

Huo Xiaohan saw Zhong Sunrui and asked with a smile: "Does Xiaorui want to eat zongzi early?" ”

Zhong Sunrui was a little embarrassed and said, "It's better to wait until noon to eat." "People here make zongzi in the morning and eat zongzi at noon.

"Okay, let's eat at noon." As he spoke, he took out the bracelet made of five-colored ropes, "Come, bring it to you, all children have to bring it, to ward off evil spirits." You have to keep it with you. ”

"Okay." Zhong Sunrui looked at the five-color rope on his wrist, "Is it only for children?" ”

"Well, it's all brought by children. Do you want to eat salted duck eggs? "Yuan Anping bought a lot of duck eggs before, and they made their own salted duck eggs, which are just right to eat at this time.

Zhong Sunrui said happily: "Eat." He likes to eat salted duck eggs, especially egg yolks, which are particularly delicious.

After breakfast, everyone made zongzi together.

Among the four people, only Huo Xiaohan's craftsmanship is online, and the bag is very beautiful. However, as long as the package does not leak rice, there are not many requirements for what shape.

Huo Xiaohan looked at Zhong Sun Rui: "Xiaorui, you have too much rice, and you can't wrap the zongzi leaves." Add less rice. ”

Zhong Sun Rui grinned and said, "I want to make a big one, but it's a pity that the leaves are not big enough." ”

Yuan Anping smiled, children like special orders, such as steamed steamed buns, when everyone else eats big steamed buns, they especially like to give them a very small steamed bun alone. Zongzi likes to be bigger than others: "If you want to eat big, let's cook glutinous rice directly tomorrow and eat it with sugar, which is actually the same as zongzi." ”

"However, if you don't use leaf wrapping, it's not a zongzi." In the hearts of children, what is wrapped in leaves is zongzi, and what is not wrapped in leaves is just rice.

“…… In fact, the taste is not much worse. "In the past, when he lived by himself, when he was too lazy to buy zongzi, he steamed some glutinous rice by himself, added dates, and then ate it with sugar, which felt the same as zongzi.

Huo Xiaohan said with a smile: "Children like to wrap them in leaves. ”

"Eating is a feeling." Zhongsun Lianjue wrapped himself into a rectangular zongzi and put it into a steamed bun, "wrapped in zongzi leaves, and the steamed zongzi has the fragrance of zongzi leaves." ”

When a few people were chatting, Yuan Dahe came over with zongzi: "Brother Anping, my mother's zongzi, send you a few." ”

Yuan Anping accepted it and grabbed some dates for Yuan Dahe: "Take them and eat them." "Anyway, children are not afraid of sweetness.

Yuan Anping looked at the zongzi, and then said to Zhong Sunrui: "Xiaorui, you can take some zongzi and send them to Yuanlin." "Think about a little child, making zongzi at home, and always feel very lonely.

"Okay." In Zhong Sunrui's eyes, he and Yuan Lin are already good friends, and they are not afraid of his cold chain when they send things. After taking the zongzi, I went to find Yuanlin.

Zhong Sunrui ran to Yuan Lin and shouted in a cheerful voice: "Yuan Lin, I'm here to send you zongzi!" ”

He went directly into the courtyard and saw Yuan Lin: "Yuan Lin, have you made zongzi?" ”

"Nope." He is alone, it doesn't matter if he eats or not.

"Haha, you're in for a treat. I've got six for you, so you don't have to pack it yourself. Zhong Sunrui quickly took out the zongzi and put it on the table, "This paper bag is white sugar, cook the zongzi and eat it." Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and you must eat zongzi. ”

"Thank you."

"You're too polite." As he spoke, he took out another duck egg and came out, "This is what Brother Xiaohan cooked for me and gave it to you to eat." "What he saved in the morning was originally intended to be given to Yuan Lin. Today is a festival, and I can eat delicious meals to celebrate the festival with Brother Anping, but Yuanlin can't. It's good to have a duck egg, "The yolk is already oily, it's delicious." ”

Yuan Lin took the duck egg, looked at Zhong Sunrui, and did not thank him again: "Let's go catch fish together in the afternoon." ”

"Okay!" Zhong Sunrui was very happy, Yuan Lin would catch fish, and he wanted to go, but Yuan Lin never took him, saying that it was dangerous to go down the river. This time, I was finally willing to take myself to play.

At noon, because of the festival, Huo Xiaohan specially fried four dishes and put the boiled zongzi on the table: "Let's try the zongzi you wrapped." Put the zongzi that Zhong Sunrui wrapped himself in front of him: "Dip it in sugar and eat." ”

Yuan Anping took a rice dumpling wrapped by himself, which was relatively small, because he was worried that the rice would leak, so he packed less rice. I opened the dumpling leaves and tasted it: "I make less rice, and it's sweet enough to have dates, and I don't need to touch it with sugar." ”

Zhong Sunrui took a bite of the dates: "The dates are so sweet and delicious!" ”

Zhongsun Lianjue had never eaten dates before, so he thought it was a very good way to preserve dates, but after listening to Yuan Anping say that the production process of dates, he felt that it was too sugary, and it was not worth doing for ordinary villagers.

Huo Xiaohan looked at them, when he was with them, he really participated in this kind of joy and laughter on any holiday, and he felt very happy. 166 Reading Network
