The second is to ask for pink...... In the winter moon, it froze. Even Man'er's home glazed windows, and in order to keep warm in winter, he also used double-layer glazed windows at any cost. Even so, once in a while, there is less firewood on one night, and when you wake up in the morning, you can see that the glass window is full of frost flowers.

Lian Man'er likes to look at frost flowers, because it is not a layer of frost on the slab, but a variety of naturally generated patterns, which of course requires a pair of eyes that are good at discovering.

Large leaves, or feathers, are the most common, followed by flowers, and sometimes layers of houses. And when the sun rises and the temperature in the house also rises, the frost on the glass window slowly melts, and there is often another wonder at this time.

Because of the different rates of melting, those frost flowers slowly moistened and bloomed, forming different levels near and far. The most magical time Lian Man'er saw was in the center of a glazed window, there were beauties nearby, flowers and trees around, and there were pavilions farther away, which was simply a vivid picture of Daiyu's funeral flowers.

However, there are not many days when Lian Man'er can see the frost flowers, because the heating in her house is very good.

On the kang outside the West House, the coal stove in the outer room is used for heating. During the day, they turn up the fire in the stove to make the kang warmer outside. If Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er sit in this outer room, a brazier will be added to the ground.

At night, Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er go to sleep in the inner room, and the fire in the stove in the outhouse will be turned down. The inner house does not rely on the coal stove in the outhouse for heating at night, but has a separate small stove. The opening of the small stove is set under the window sill outside the house, and the stove pit leads directly to the kang in the inner house. Before going to bed at night, I first burned firewood, burned a kang in the inner room, and then piled enough coal on the firewood to burn overnight, so that all night, the inner room of the two sisters as a bedroom was warm.

Because of this, the glass windows in the back room have no chance of frost flowers. Only the glass windows in the outer room. In the jealous cold night, the frost flower Chapter 445 frost flower will be born.

Zhang's also calls this frost flower a window flower, but Lian Man'er still likes to say frost flowers, in her eyes, window flowers are the kind of window flowers that specifically refer to paper-cutting.

The so-called spring, summer, autumn, and winter storage, winter is a season of storage. Especially here like the Thirty Mile Camp. In places where the winter is extremely cold, people have the habit of cat winter.

Lian Man'er likes cat winter, in addition to going to Lian Kee shop and sauerkraut workshop every day, and then sorting out the accounts for the day. And then, as it is now......

There is a small kang table on the hot kang, on which are placed two or three volumes of books, hot tea is placed next to it, and there are boxes full of jujubes, pears, persimmons, maobai, peanuts, trough cakes, walnut cakes and other fruits and snacks. Lian Man'er sat at the table, wearing warm cotton clothes and cotton pants, and her legs stretched out under the kang table. The legs and feet were covered with small quilts made of new cotton. In this way, he held a big flower in his arms, and ate snacks while reading a book.

"Man'er, do you want hot tea?" Lian Zhi'er came in from outside, looked at Lian Man'er's enjoyment, and asked with a smile.

"Uh-huh." Lian Man'er nodded.

Lian Zhi'er took Lian Man'er's teacup, went out to change a new cup of tea, and came back to Lian Man'er.

"Sister, what are we going to eat at night?" Lian Man'er took a bite of the big Ya pear and asked Lian Zhi'er.

"My mother and I just went down to the vegetable cellar. The mother took a winter melon and said that it was a stewed winter melon at night. Lian Zhi'er said, "You and Xiao Qi love to eat." ”

In winter, most people's meals are very monotonous, nothing more than sauerkraut, potatoes, cabbage, and more, that is, dried vegetables in autumn. And Lian Man'er's family has a lot of dishes this winter, because her family has dug a big vegetable cellar.

Thirty miles of camp villagers also dig vegetable cellars, but most of them are used to store cabbage. There are also differences between vegetable cellars and vegetable cellars. One is simple. It is to dig a large square pit in the ground, and then lay wooden boards, straw curtains, straw, etc. on top of it. Leave one more opening. Usually, this opening is also tightly covered, and when you want to go down to the vegetable cellar to get vegetables, you will open the opening and put a wooden ladder down.

This kind of vegetable cellar is simple, easy to dig, only one person high, generally not large, and the effect of storing cabbage is not bad. Most of the farmers dig such vegetable cellars in the vegetable garden, and wait until the spring of the next year, fill up the vegetable cellars and still grow vegetables.

There is also a kind of vegetable cellar, after excavation, it is necessary to fill and support it with bricks, stones, wood, etc., just like building a house. This kind of vegetable cellar is generally very deep and large, and can store a lot of things, and the storage date and freshness effect are incomparable to that of a simple vegetable cellar. Moreover, it is a permanent building that can be used all year round through spring, summer, autumn and winter. At the entrance and exit of the vegetable cellar, more convenient and stable steps are used.

Lian Man'er's family built this kind of vegetable cellar. The cellar is also divided into two sections, one for vegetables and fruits, and the other for wine. So it can also be said that one part is a vegetable cellar and the other part is a wine cellar.

This is a vegetable cellar that can be used all year round to preserve the freshness of ingredients and other items.

When they first stored vegetables and wine inside, Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi liked to go down to play inside, but now that it's cold, Lian Man'er is too lazy to go.

For dinner, Zhang's really made stewed winter melon, which was very fresh, and Lian Man'er ate a whole bowl of rice.

After dinner, the family sat down together and discussed, saying that they would prepare dumplings.

As soon as the winter moon entered, every household began to make dumplings, and even Man'er's family has fallen behind this year because they are busy.

"How many catties of dumplings will we pack this year?" Lian Shouxin asked Zhang.

"Do you all like to eat dumplings?" Zhang asked a few children. When the living conditions at home are better, gluttony becomes a choice, not a necessity.

"Love to eat." Xiao Qi replied.

"Is there anything you don't like to eat?" Lian Man'er pinched Xiao Qi's face. Xiao Qi has grown again, so the fat on his body is not too obvious, because he is still so chubby, so the feel is still good. Lian Man'er's love for it is simply a fight with the warm, fluffy belly of the big flower.

"Our family of six, I'll do the math, I'll pack 100 catties of noodles this year." Zhang said, "Let's wrap big yellow rice and small yellow rice noodles this year, without adding millet rice noodles." Prepare more adzuki beans, and then wrap them with thin skin and big filling. ”

The average family in the 30-mile camp is covered with dumplings, and they can eat for three to four months, and two or even three meals a day are dumplings. Especially in the morning, almost every household eats dumplings.

This is because you only need to boil a pot of soup under the curtain drawer, only a little fire, and in a short time, a breakfast is complete.

"Okay." Several children said in unison. A lot of sweet, soft and glutinous bean paste filling, thin sticky and fragrant skin, which several children love.

The next day, Lian Shouxin drove to the mill to grind rhubarb rice noodles and small yellow rice noodles and came back, and Zhang took Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er to pick up small beans at home.

Early in the morning of the third day, Lian Shouxin used a large vat to reconcile the yellow rice noodles and put them on the kang hair. In the evening, the Zhang family invited Lian Shouli, Zhao and Lian Ye'er over, and invited two clean and capable daughters-in-law from the village. After eating dinner early, Zhang's boiled the bean paste.

While waiting for the bean paste to be ripe, the big guy was busy preparing the curtain drawer and cutting the corn husks. This is the time of the autumn harvest, and the inner white skin of the corn cob selected by Lian Man'er is dried and stored. At this time, take it out, cut it into small pieces that are suitable for the diameter of the sticky bean bun, wash it in warm water, and soak it until soft.

This corn tender husk will be used to hold the sticky bean bun when the time comes, so as not to stick to the curtain drawer.

Like Su Ye and the leaves of the big fruit tree given by Lee, this corn tender skin also has its own unique fragrance.

When the bean paste was cooked, the yellow rice noodles had already been lifted up the lid of the jar, and the family put two tables on the kang, and everyone sat down and began to make dumplings.

Gorou and Xiao Qi didn't watch from the side, they all came to help. Lian Shouxin and Lian Shouli are still responsible for lighting the fire. Mr. Lu is a southerner, and he has never seen anyone wrapping bread, so he is very curious, and he also came to watch, and tried to wrap one, but the result was not successful, so he had to give up and go back to the study to read the book.

There were only 100 catties of dumplings, and two neat daughters-in-law were invited, so in the middle of the night, the dumplings were all wrapped, cooked, and stored in a vat when they were frozen in the open air in the yard.

The big guy cleaned up, Zhang's cooked, fried a shredded pork slices of beans, an egg and garlic sprouts, and also heated a pot of white meat sauerkraut, a pot of potato vermicelli in bone broth, and brought a curtain of dumplings that had just come out of the pot.

The next day, Lian Ye'er's family made dumplings, and her family only had three people, so they only packed fifty catties, and invited Zhang's, Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er to help and entertain the food.

There were two snowfalls in the winter months, and the weather became colder and colder in the wax moon. Lian Man'er's family started planning early to purchase New Year's goods.

"Whatever you want, let's think about it." Lian Man'er said that they have a lot of income this year, so they naturally plan to have a rich year. "Food, clothing, use, whatever you want, you can mention it."

"You don't have to buy this year's meat, I have discussed it with Lao Zhang, and in two days, we will kill the New Year's pig." Even keep your word.

"You don't need to buy chickens and ducks, the ones we raise ourselves can't be eaten in a year." Zhang's Road.

"What about beef and mutton?" Lian Man'er asked. There is very little beef and mutton here in Thirty Miles, and it is a bit troublesome to buy it.

The family was discussing, and Wu Wang came in a car.

"The letter from Taicang was brought over by the old Lu family, and I happened to be free, so I sent it to you...... Send the second watch, ask for pink.

Today's 6th, the pink doubling event will end tomorrow, everyone has a guaranteed monthly pass, pink ticket, don't waste it, throw it to the small landlord.

Strive for three watches in the evening. (To be continued)RQ!!
