Chapter 166 Steamed Noodles with Elm Money (Seeking Basic Flowers)

After returning in the afternoon, I continued to break toons, and I can still sell them tomorrow. With today's experience, it is necessary to break a little more. Zhang Taiping doesn't have a toon tree at home, so he doesn't have to be busy, and Zhang Taiping is also happy to be idle, sitting on the edge of the pond with a rattan chair.

The ducklings and the big white goose began to try to get into the water, this is the surname in the bones, although small, but there is a yearning for water, one by one fluttering and jumping into the water to dial the water twice. What made Zhang Taiping embarrassed was that there was a little chicken watching the duck and the big white goose jump into the water and float on the water, and he also jumped down in the same way.

It is conceivable that the tragedy is that he can't swim at all, and he doesn't have the natural surname of swimming, so he flutters his wings vigorously in the water. Zhang Taiping hurried over to rescue this stupid and brave little guy.

The little guy shook his head as if he was drunk on the shore, and after a while he threw himself on the ground and coughed incessantly. Zhang Taiping grabbed it and put it in a warm and windless place, although the water on the tuyere is easy to dry, but it is easy to catch a cold after falling into the water, and such a fragile life can not withstand the toss.

When his body was dry, the little guy shook his body and no longer dared to approach the pool, so he returned to his own cluster and pecked at something in the ground.

Just when Zhang Taiping was sitting on the chair and about to fall asleep, there were two people's footsteps behind him, and one could be heard being Cai Yazhi's, while the other was quite light on the ground, and he couldn't tell who it was. Zhang Taiping turned around, and it turned out to be Lu Feng.

Cai Yazhi thought about Zhang Taiping for a while, Zhang Taiping understood, but asked him to help Lu Feng break the toon tree in the yard.

The man of Lu Feng's family inherited a small courtyard from his parents, and after the accident, it was passed on to Lu Feng and Tiantian. There was also a large toon tree in the middle of the yard, but it was too tall and too big, and she could only hook the low one down with a wooden pole herself, and the large area on it could not be built.

She died man, and she had no relatives in the village. The widow has a lot of right and wrong in front of the door, and in order to refute the rumors, she rarely interacts with other people in the village. dating Cai Yazhi is also because Cai Yazhi is a mute, and the previous situation is somewhat similar to herself, and she is not good at interacting with people, so the two have become good friends. Now when I need to find someone to help, I can only look for Cai Yazhi to see if I can ask Zhang Taiping to help break the toon on the upper part of the tree through her. There are dozens of catties on it, hundreds of dollars, it's a waste not to break it.

Zhang Taiping nodded in agreement.

On the road in the past, Zhang Taiping saw that Lu Feng was a little nervous, afraid of other people's gossip, so he walked two steps ahead of Zhang Taiping. Zhang Taiping smiled, and followed behind more than two steps and three meters behind.

When I arrived at her house, she was the only one, and I went out to play with Yaya and a group of children every day. Lu Feng opened the door of the courtyard to the maximum to ensure that the people outside could see the situation inside to the greatest extent, so as to avoid others gossiping.

Zhang Taiping didn't say anything, standing under the tree and waiting for her to finish all these things first.

She is also a little embarrassed, her actions are said to be for the sake of her reputation, but in fact, she is also a kind of distrust of Zhang Taiping. With a slightly red face, he handed Zhang Taiping a bamboo pole with an iron hook tied to it. The whole process remained unchanged and did not say a word to Zhang Taiping.

Zhang Taiping laughed a little in his heart, and also felt that Lu Feng was a bit like a primary school student. Refuting rumors is not something that can be refuted without speaking, and it is impossible to say a few words just to send out some bad messages.

He took the pole and asked, "Is there a list of food spread on the ground at home?" ”

"Yes." Lu Feng replied that it was really simple, and then turned around and went into the house to get it.

Zhang Taiping thought in his heart, although the little widow didn't speak much, her voice was quite good, and there was a feeling like a jade pendant.

After taking out the list, Zhang Taiping said: "Spread it under the tree, and when the time comes, I will hook it down with a hook on the tree and let it fall directly on the cloth, which is convenient and can ensure the cleanliness of the toon, and it will be easy to sell when it is sold." ”

In order to avoid any rumors that she was worried about, Zhang Taiping did not go up to help lay the list together, and began to climb the tree after she laid the list.

Seeing Zhang Taiping start to climb the tree like this, Lu Feng hurriedly said, "Wait a minute." Then he turned and ran into the house. Zhang Taiping didn't know, so he stood under the tree for the time being and waited.

A moment later she came out again, holding a thick bundle of twine in her hand, and said, "Tie yourself to the trunk of the tree when you go up to the tree." ”

Zhang Taiping said: "No need. Then he staggered up the tree.

Lu Feng looked a little worried below, opened his mouth and closed it a few more times before he whispered: "Be careful." ”

If it weren't for Zhang Taiping's hearing, he really couldn't hear it, and he said without looking back, "Hehe, it's okay." ”

After climbing to the top of the tree, Zhang Taiping sat on top of a thick branch, broke all one side and then transferred to the other side to break it all. Lu Feng watched from below, and when one fell from above, he went up to pick it up, stacked it neatly, put it together, and tied it up with straw branches.

After coming down from the tree, Zhang Taiping said, "If it's okay, I'll leave first." ”

Lu Feng didn't keep it, and whispered when he sent it to the door: "Thank you." ”

Zhang Taiping waved his hand and said, "No! If you need help with anything in the future, just ask. After saying that, he left, and after a few steps, he heard the sound of the door closing behind him. Zhang Taiping just shook his head and smiled, but he didn't blame her for being rude. He could understand the difficulties of a young and beautiful little widow with a child, and it was rare that this pretty widow was very clean and self-conscious, and there was hardly any rumor that came out.

When I walked to the side of the main field, I saw a group of children gathered around a tree, and they couldn't stop plucking things from the branches that had been broken off the tree and stuffing them into their mouths. Yaya and Little Girl are no exception.

Zhang Taiping looked up, but it was an elm money tree, which was already full of golden elm money at some point, and the strings of elm money were very good-looking.

In the countryside, children don't have KFC, hopping candy, and wahaha like in the city, and even a white rabbit toffee is a luxury for some children, and their snacks come from all kinds of wild fruits and vegetables that grow wild.

This elm money has just grown, tender yellow and tender, and there is a faint sweetness when chewed, which is the favorite of children in addition to acacia flowers in spring.

Zhang Taiping also walked over, and when the maid saw Zhang Taiping, she shouted happily: "Dad, give us enough money to come down." ”

Their group of children was the youngest in the village, and the tallest was a head taller than the maid, trying to pull the elm branches on the tree with a bamboo pole with a hook, and very arrogantly let the children smaller than themselves eat the elm money they could reach. Children are very strange, they can generously share their favorite things with their friends, and they are very stingy and don't let others go to their homes.

Zhang Taiping said, "Come, give me the pole." ”

The child hurriedly handed the pole into Zhang Taiping's hands.

Zhang Taiping is tall, and after holding the bamboo pole, he folded off a large pile of them. The small branches were all given to the children and left a few large branches to take home.

When leaving, Zhang Taiping handed Tian Tian a big branch and said, "Tian Tian, go home early, and let your mother give you noodles and Yu Qian to steam Yu Qian loquat." ”

Tian Tian obediently took the elm money and went to the house idle. I don't know why, every time I see the back of the little girl walking back alone, Zhang Taiping has a sad feeling, as if he saw himself when he was a child. In fact, her experience when she was a child was not the same as hers, but the little girl's timid expression can always arouse people's pity, and she wants to protect her like her father.

shook his brain, put the girl up and rode on his neck, and walked towards his house.

Returning home with her daughter in the evening always makes people's hearts warm and full of warmth.

After arriving at home, Fan Ming asked strangely after seeing the things in Zhang Taiping's hand, "Big brother, what is this?" ”

Yaya replied first: "Auntie is so stupid, she doesn't even know this!" This is elm money, which can be eaten. After speaking, he picked up a few elm leaves and put them in his mouth.

Fan Ming didn't pay attention to the words of the little girl, the two of them spoke like this, and they also picked some like the girl, put it in their mouths and tasted it, and said: "It's still sweet, with a kind of grassy fragrance." ”

Yaya didn't know what the fragrance of grass was, but she nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it's sweet." ”

"Is it just that?" Fan Mingyou picked some and put it in his mouth and asked.

Zhang Taiping replied: "You can also eat like this, but you can't eat more, otherwise you will have diarrhea." It is best to mix it with flour and eat it steamed. ”

"Steaming and eating? How to eat? Fan Ming didn't understand.

"Hehe, you'll find out in a moment." Zhang Taiping didn't explain much. Fan Ming wrinkled her nose at her and went to watch TV with Yaya.

In the kitchen, Cai Yazhi was also quite excited to see the elm money that Zhang Taiping got back. In the past, there were no good ingredients, and in order to have a fork meal, she would come back and steam some at this time of year. It's just that the conditions are better this year, and there is too much work inside and outside the house, and I am busy all day long, and I don't care about the elm money that has grown.

I ate this at night. The golden elm money is washed twice from the branch and put in the water, dried and mixed with flour to form a flocculent, spread out a layer on top of the wooden neck cake and steamed on top.

After more than 30 minutes, put it out of the pot and put it in a basin, use an iron spoon to heat a spoonful of oil and splash it, and stir it evenly with a stinging sound. So it's ready to eat.

It tastes both oily and fragrant, with a light sweetness, which is extremely appetizing. It's just that it's a little too dry, so I have to boil another half pot of porridge and eat and drink at the same time.

PS: Ask for basic flowers.
