Chapter 337, my cousin is here
(The text has been overhauled, and there will be two more to make up in the evening)
This New Year is a very new year for the Luo family to move to the town, and it is also the first reunion year for Luo Liuqing to return after many years away from home. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
And it is also the New Year with the largest number of people celebrating the New Year in the Luo family in the past ten years.
In addition to the grandson and granddaughter who accompanied the two old people for the New Year, the daughter who had not returned home for many years also returned.
There are also two more Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo who will advance and retreat with the Luo family in the future, Luo Yi Luoren.
On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, no one in the Luo family slept lazily, and early, the small courtyard was noisy, and Luo Laohan and Luo Zhou carried a vegetable basket to the backyard greenhouse to pick the materials to be used to set the table today, and the other took over the job of adding food fillers to chickens and ducks today.
There are now more than 30 chickens and more than a dozen ducks in the backyard, of which the females account for the vast majority, and a few roosters have been gelding, no, for the New Year, two big roosters and an old hen have just been slaughtered, and three ducks.
People are celebrating the New Year, chickens and ducks are also going to celebrate the New Year, Luo Zhou's is to mix a large pot of material with crushed corn mixed with vegetable leaves and leftovers from yesterday's home, and then he walked to the front of the breeding shed, and heard that those chickens and ducks were already tired of staying in the small shack.
Hearing someone's footsteps approaching, they flapped their wings and wanted to rush out.
The chickens and ducks of the Luo family are all free-range during the day, and the thirty or so chickens will look for insects to eat in the vegetable field and under the grape trellis, and some naughty chickens will steal the vegetable leaves when the big lazy cat is not paying attention.
In the evening, when I return to the shack, I will feed some corn chips mixed with vegetable leaves.
When it comes to the laying period, the highest day can pick up more than 30 eggs and duck eggs.
Luo Yumin likes to eat salted eggs very much, and his grandmother Luo Zhou saved up those duck eggs, washed and dried them, rolled them in the spirits, and then dipped them in a layer of fried pepper and salt, and then stacked them in the jar one by one, and finally sealed the mouth of the altar with mud and put it in a cool place, and a month later, the delicious salted duck eggs with butter were freshly baked.
(Ye Zi said here, this method of making salted eggs is very simple, but it is best to wrap the duck eggs dipped in salt and pepper one by one with plastic wrap and then put them in the jar, so that the taste of salted salt will be more uniform.) In addition, many people in the city have jars at home, then you can use an open large glass bottle, no matter how bad you are, you can also use a thickened plastic bag to cover a few more layers, bundle it and put it under the cabinet, or a cool place at home, remember to avoid light, it only takes about 20 days to eat fresh salted duck eggs in summer, and it takes about 40~50 days in winter to really taste)
Luo Yumin can drink two bowls of porridge with salted duck eggs and eat several steamed buns. Even Luo Laohan likes to eat, a salted duck egg can serve a bowl of wine.
Even Luo Yuliang doesn't like to eat it, but this little guy only picks the fragrant egg yolk to eat salted eggs, but he doesn't like to touch the egg whites.
A few days ago, there was a heavy snowfall, and the thick snow decorated the whole town with a solemn atmosphere, and the mountains and rivers were covered with snow, and the road traffic became a little difficult because of this heavy snowfall.
Even so, the severe cold and winter snow still did not stop the arrival of the new year, and there would be scattered firecrackers in the sky.
Even if the conditions are not good, at this time will try their best to make up a decent table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and there will be cooking smoke rising from the head of every house.
After Luo Yumin finished practicing in the morning, he took a shower, changed into a relaxed and comfortable clothes, ate some breakfast casually, and then came to the kitchen with a royal blue coarse cloth long coat.
This New Year, she plans to let Luo Ren make a delicious Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to repay her grandfather and grandmother for their nurturing and reconstruction.
She also said that Luo Yumin passed the chef assessment in the system's virtual classroom, and her Western-style pastry making level has reached the level of a senior pastry master, but the affairs have been too complicated in the past year, and she has not been in the kitchen for a long time.
In the kitchen, Aunt Mo and Luo Ren are performing their own duties, and even Luo Yumin's own mother Luo Liuqing picked up herself early and entered the kitchen.
This person, once his taste improves, he will put a lot of thought into his outfit in any venue.
Compared to Luo Liuqing now, although he is working in the kitchen, he has cleaned up neatly.
The pink face was painted with a light makeup, the big black waves were coiled in a bun and fixed behind her head with a hosta, in order to prevent oil smoke, she also wore a hat, a set of flower sleeves on the cuffs, and a fuchsia and white striped checkered inverted apron.
Like Aunt Mo and Luo Ren, it is just a blue overalls of the same style as Luo Yumin, with elastic bands on the cuffs, which is just convenient for work without tripping or scraping.
Aunt Mo saw her walk into the kitchen and hurriedly stepped forward, "Girl, what do you want, I'll give it to you right away..."
The large kitchen of the Luo family is sixty or seventy square meters, and the kitchen is divided into two parts, one large and one small, with a double-open wooden door in the middle.
The small room is about 20 square meters, which is used as a warehouse, and there are several rows of containers in the room, and next to the east wall is a large vertical freezer.
The freezer contains fresh seafood, sea fish, and some fresh beef and mutton that Luo Yumin bought from outside, as well as game (except for seafood, most of which are taken from the storage room of the system farm, and the beef and mutton are freshly slaughtered beef cattle and sheep in the system livestock farm). )
On the shelves, there are many mountain and wild vegetables, such as some dried mushrooms, some of which were picked by Luo Yumin on the Yanhuang Star.
More were sent from Yatougou Manor.
In addition to the seafood that needs to be purchased, the Luo family is now basically self-sufficient in poultry eggs, non-staple food, and meat.
After the transmission channel of Yan Huangxing was developed, the Luo family would be able to be self-sufficient in seafood.
However, now, except for Aunt Mo and Uncle Mo from HK, there are really not many people who are interested in seafood, especially the two old people of the Luo family, who have chickens, ducks, meat and eggs every day, and they are already satisfied.
"Aunt Mo, I'll cook this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, let Luo Ren give me a hand, you go and do something else..."
Luo Yumin's words made several people in the kitchen stunned.
Luo Liuqing was the first to object, "Go, I'm here to make trouble, your mother and I have your mother and Aunt Mo in the kitchen, how can you worry about this leisure." ”
"If you want to say that you usually stir-fry vegetables or something, you still go with you, but this is the New Year..."
Luo Yuliang happened to come in to deliver dishes, and when he heard his aunt's words, he retorted without thinking, "Who said my sister can't cook, my sister's cooking is delicious..."
Aunt Mo was also busy facing Luo Liuqing, "The girl's craftsmanship is very good..."
Later, he said to Luo Yumin: "Girl, if you really want to help, then you can make some snacks or desserts suitable for eating after meals, and the main dish of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is for me and Luo Ren to give Mrs. a hand..."
If according to the real idea, Aunt Mo still hopes to manage this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner by herself, although this Luo family loves to eat noodles, but she also took this opportunity to make a good table of Cantonese dinner when the raw seafood in the kitchen is ready, so that the old lady and the old lady can open their eyes.
But if someone's daughter wants to enter filial piety, she can't stop it.
Luo Yumin was a little disappointed, but seeing that her own mother was in the mood, she couldn't continue to rob her of her work, so she could only withdraw from the big kitchen stupidly.
But she was not idle, she ran to her small kitchen and closed the door and opened it.
Before noon, the sound of firecrackers had already sounded in the sky above the town, and the prelude to the new year had officially begun.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner does not have to be eaten at the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and many people, especially the newly married children who have been separated from the family, usually cook a few dishes at home at noon as a new home, and then rush back to their parents' homes for reunion dinner, so many people start eating at noon.
In the south, it is usually fired after eating, commonly known as opening the door cannon. And here in Jinbei, it is a cannon before a meal.
The small courtyard of the Luo family is brightly lit, and the lights in all the rooms in the courtyard are all lit, implying that life will still be prosperous next year.
In the corner of the dining room, the fireplace in the fireplace is bustling, and the taste of winter is not found here at all.
A round table with a diameter of about two meters is placed in the center of the dining room, and in the center of a glass turntable is a flower arrangement, which is extremely delicate.
A large 31-inch color TV is playing entertainment programs related to the Chinese New Year.
The family sat around the reunion table, the table was full of more than 20 dishes, which were full of color, flavor and flavor, everyone who watched was full of saliva, Luo Yuliang's children were holding chopsticks early and waiting for everyone to sit down, and grandpa started eating when he spoke.
Luo Yumin not only prepared fresh juice, but also prepared some medicinal wine for his grandfather and Uncle Mo.
"Why hasn't my aunt come yet..."Luo Yuliang was a little anxious.
"Madame, change your clothes, and I'll be here soon," Aunt Mo said with a smile after bringing a soup to the table.

The Luo family originally had a small population, and when they were in Yatougou before, there were still a few families who were familiar with each other, and everyone would jump to the door when they were in the New Year's Day, although they didn't pay attention to the door or anything on the first day of the new year, but the little dolls ignored these, still wearing new clothes and new pants, wearing new hats, and showing off the whole village.
Even if those items are just cheap on the market, they are new to them, joy and happiness.
After moving to the town, the villagers will only come to the town to do business, and if things are not done well that day, they will rest at Luo's house for one night.
But since the completion of the manor in Yatougou, a new small market has been formed around the manor, and what mountain goods, game, etc., have also been sold to the manor, and gradually fewer people in the village have come to the Luojia courtyard.
Luo Laohan decided that he wanted to go back to the village in the second year of junior high school to see his old friends, and also to see the changes in the village by the way.
However, what happened next disrupted the old man's arrangement.
Luo Shuilian and his wife came to the door with her sick son. (To be continued.) )
