077 The first Spring Festival
The first Spring Festival in Lao Li's house
The whole village is immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year.
This Li Dabiaozi's family was not happy because Zhang Xiaoqiang was able to wake up safely after six days of sleep. Li Xianglan complained: "I came to your house for the New Year's greetings, and I don't even have a minimum New Year's gift at home, don't you want me to come?" ”
Grandma was holding two little great-grandsons, Dabao and Erbao, in her arms, and she said to Li Xianglan: "No one doesn't welcome you, it's just that there was a situation in the family a year ago, and Baiwa's daughter-in-law suddenly fell ill, so she didn't prepare anything." After a while, ask your dad to go to Butcher Chen's house to buy some meat, and then go and change some tofu to cook for you and the children. The year is good, the month is good, the days are sad, the current is a little harder, but it will be fine in the future! ”
Grandma looked at the big treasure and the second treasure in her arms with loving eyes, and she was full of hope for the future
Li Dabiao turned around and went out, he went to Butcher Chen's house. said that he was a butcher, and he used to have a slaughtering skill, and he had killed pigs, cattle and sheep in the production team. At the end of the year, the pigs raised by the family began to be killed and exchanged and sold in the village. Li Dabiao came to try his luck and see if he could buy it.
Butcher Chen's face was pockmarked, he saw Li Dabiao come to the door, first handed over a cigarette, Li Dabiao explained his intention, Butcher Chen said: "Brother, I'm sorry, there is not much meat, so I left some for myself to entertain guests, but when you come to the door, I can only give you less." There's also a little pig in the water, if you don't dislike it, take it! ”
Li Dabiao thanked him again and again, a pork liver, a kidney, a hanging intestine, and less than two catties of pork belly, and paid three yuan. On the way, I went to Aunt Li's tofu workshop, bought a piece of tofu and two catties of bean sprouts, and took these things back home.
A room full of people looking at what they got back, you looking at me, I looking at you, and no one wants to cook. Shen Cuihua said: "Xiang, you go and ask Baiwa's daughter-in-law to cook, since she is good, let her cook!" ”
Li Xiangxiang was a little happy when she heard that she didn't need to cook. She walked to the door of Zhang Xiaoqiang's house and said, "My mother asked you to cook, you hurry up!" When Zhang Xiaoqiang heard this, she told herself that she couldn't be angry, wasn't it just cooking, she couldn't be angry. She answered, "Got it! ”
Zhang Yang said: "Sister, I'll light a fire for you." ”
Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the two younger brothers with a smile, just did it, so that the two children could also coax their stomachs.
When she came to the hall and was about to bring the things that her father-in-law had brought back to the kitchen, the grandmother said, "My good girl, you must be careful of your body." ”
"Milk, don't worry, it's okay!" After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the hall.
Zhang Yang skillfully lit the fire, and he said: "Sister, boil some hot water first, and you won't freeze your hands when you wash the vegetables." Zhang Chen picked up the water scoop on the side and added water to the pot.
There are still some Chinese cabbage, radish, green onions, vermicelli, and potatoes that are stored in the kitchen during the winter, Zhang Xiaoqiang looks at these dishes, and she has already made a plan in her heart about how to do it, not only for the family to eat, but at least for herself and her two younger brothers.
Even in the small pot at the back of the stove, there are good noodles, but Shen Cuihua is too lazy to make steamed buns. Zhang Xiaoqiang took out the noodles, and she planned to steam a pot of mixed noodles steamed buns.
The water in the pot was boiled, and three kettles of boiling water were filled. Some cold water was added to the pot, Zhang Yang added the fire to the fullest, Zhang Chen warmed his hands beside him, and the faces of the two children were red.
Zhang Xiaoqiang quickly mixed the dough, kneaded it vigorously, and then let the dough sit for a while. Taking advantage of this time, I washed the cabbage, radish, and potatoes with hot water, and soaked the noodles.
The good noodles are kneaded into small camelina and kneaded into the prototype of steamed buns, which are placed on the cage drawer one by one. After the water is boiled, go directly to the cage drawer, and there are two large cage drawers. Cover the pot, and a large black bowl is pressed on it, and after a while, the white gas around the cage drawer comes up.
Cut off a piece of meat, wash it and cut it into slices. Cut the freshly washed vegetables and tofu, and be sure to make a big pot of fragrant stewed vegetables for the New Year. Zhang Chen's eyes stared at these dishes, and he said, "Sister, I can imagine how delicious the taste is." ”
"Look at your gluttony, eat more later." Zhang Xiaoqiang saw Zhang Chen's gluttony, and she was very pity.
About half an hour later, the steamed bread came out of the pot, and although the color of the steamed bread made of mixed grains was not good-looking, the taste was delicious. First divided one for the two younger brothers, Zhang Chen said: "It's delicious." ”
Scoop the water from the pot into the small pot at the back, and the water in the big winter cannot be wasted. Pour oil into the pan, and when the oil is hot, fry the tofu until golden brown, and then take it out and put it in a bowl. Put Sichuan pepper and dried chili pepper into the oil, and then put the meat slices in water and stir-fry, the sound of the pot is very attractive. All the cut vegetables were poured in, salt, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce were put in, most of the dishes were half a pot, soaked vermicelli and fried and tofu were put at the end, some boiling water was added, and stir-fried a few times.
There are vegetables, meat, and soup, and it is worthy of a person who has wandered in a previous life, and simple dishes can be made so perfectly.
Zhang Yang and Zhang Chen helped and brought the vegetables and steamed buns to the hall. Li Jun happily pulled Zhang Chen over, let him sit in front of him, and beckoned Zhang Yang to eat more.
Li Xianglan was very unhappy, because Li Jun did not let her first, but let outsiders.
Shen Cuihua said: "For the New Year, don't let the two babies go back to his own house, why do you eat at our house again?" ”
Grandma said: "Da Biao's daughter-in-law, this is the New Year, the baby can come, it is lively, what are you afraid of after a few bites of food?" ”
Li Dabiao said: "Child, how much can I eat from you, say a few words." Let's eat, let's move chopsticks. ”
This family is talking about it, but in front of the delicious, all of them are alive and well, Li Xiangxiang is picking meat to eat, and complaining about why there is so little meat.
Li Xianglan also patronized herself to eat, and even Dabao's two treasures were eaten and fed by her grandmother.
Grandma spoke: "I said, this white daughter-in-law just cooks deliciously, and she can cook, everyone is very happy to eat, how good is this." ”
"Of course, Sister Xiaoqiang is originally a chef!" Li Jun couldn't help but praise it.
Zhang Xiaoqiang also ate two steamed buns herself, and she urgently needed to replenish her physical strength and energy. Fortunately, the steamed buns and vegetables were just enough to eat, and grandma and Li Jun only ate one, Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at them with grateful eyes, because they wanted Zhang Yang and Zhang Chen to eat enough.
This is also the first Spring Festival she has ever married, and it is also the first New Year's Festival dinner where the whole family is together.
As soon as the chopsticks were stacked, someone in the yard called Li Xiangxiang away, and when he heard the voice, he knew that it was Ou Lanlan next door. The two of them began to mumble in the courtyard, and vaguely heard a few words, who didn't come back, and then it was the sound of Ou Lanlan closing the door when he left.
