Chapter 24 Persimmon Cakes
At night, the kitchen of the Lin family only has a small light bulb of five degrees, although Lin Yue understands Lafayette's mood of wanting to save electricity, but in such a dark environment, he is not afraid of chopsticks stuffed into his nostrils.
Lin Zhende took out a large piece of blackened radish from the pickled cabbage jar, put it on the board and cut it, and then poured some vinegar on it.
Zhou Yuqin stood by the stove by herself, pulled out a large piece of corn dough from the basin, patted it in her hand, and then threw it into the pot, making five at a time, two for each parent and half for her and her younger brother.
Lin Yue's smock that Lin Yuan'an had put on in the morning was now dirty, and Lin Yue took out the basin of dragon and phoenix Chengxiang that her parents had prepared when they got married, and mixed it with hot water to wash his paws.
"Lin Yue, don't wander around tomorrow, I told your Aunt Shulan, from tomorrow onwards, you will learn literacy with the dragon and phoenix fetus, and your aunt will check for you when she comes back."
Lin Yue's eyes widened in disbelief, doesn't this mean that he will have to bring three little babies every day in the future?
Of course, she didn't think that her little devil could stay at home in peace.
Sure enough, the little guy who was playing with muddy water in the excitement period had big watery and black eyes, and his cheeks were bulging, "Mom, I'm going too"
"You can't!" Lin Yue didn't even want to refuse.
Lin Yuanan pouted.
Lafayette also cooked the meal, and came over with two big bowls, one bowl of corn tortillas, in order to coax the child to eat, Zhou Yuqin also put two ripe persimmons on it.
There are many persimmons in the north, but no one is willing to eat these persimmons, and they will be made into persimmons and sold to the merchants who come to the village to buy persimmons.
It is not difficult to make persimmons, but it is not easy to make them look good and have a lot of frost.
In early autumn when the persimmon is still green, pick the persimmon, remove the handle on the persimmon, and then start to wash and dry the persimmon after peeling, many women gather together, holding a knife, can peel a lot of persimmon skin in a day, and when the persimmon skin is peeled, take out the curtain tied with sorghum poles, put these persimmons densely on it, put it in the sun and expose it to the sun, until a press of the persimmon, the flesh inside is completely soft, you can no longer dry.
Finally, the top of the two cakes is combined, on the middle yard of the jar, a layer of dried persimmon skin and a layer of persimmon, until the persimmon fills the jar, seal the jar, and finally put it in a cool place to frost.
The persimmons made will generally be sold, except for those with better conditions at home, or those who really love the child, and will secretly keep a few.
But Zhou Yuqin won't, it's not that she doesn't love her children, it's because her children have more strange habits.
The two siblings don't like to eat persimmons, they love to eat those that are directly natural and additive-free, and those persimmons that are soft in the natural sun.
Tear off the thin layer of skin on the outside, and the sweet juice inside will flow out, and then as long as you keep pinching that mouth, the persimmon will be left with a skin.
Another way to eat it is to cover the flesh of the persimmon on the boiled cake, which is the most delicious thing in the eyes of the two children.
Of course, this is only limited to Lin Yue before she was reborn, and she will be used to eating things like wotou wo cakes, and she will lose her appetite when she sees it.
He pushed it to Lin Yuanan.
The little guy waved a spoon and quickly pulled two persimmons and half a cake.
Lin Yue only drank a bowl of thick millet porridge by himself.
"Mom, let's go to grandpa's house tomorrow" Lin Yue thought about the opening remarks for a long time, and finally popped out such a sentence.
Lin Zhende took a piece of pickle and threw it into his mouth, and quipped: "What's wrong with this one, didn't you like to go to your grandfather's house the least before?" ”
Zhou Yuqin glared at her husband, how can she speak, isn't this provoking the sincere feelings between the child and the grandfather, she sorted out the expression on her face, softened her tone, and asked with a rare smile, "What's wrong?" Do you miss your grandpa? ”
Lin Yue's expression froze, and she glanced at her father, "That's not it, although my grandfather dumped me a few streets above Zhou Lian, but among the remaining granddaughters, I still have a bit of status."
Just like he is the baby bump of the Lin family, Zhou Lian's status in the Zhou family is even more self-evident, this kid is fat and strong, and he has to take care of his own things when he goes, if he is taken by others at a glance, this adult will take it from her hand and give it to others.
Zhou Yuqin was a little embarrassed, her face was not very good-looking, her daughter didn't like to run to her grandmother's house when she was so young, and she didn't like to take her children over, she was like a root grass since she was a child, and there was no reason to let her children be wronged there.
Seeing that Lafayette's face was not good, Lin Yue felt a sigh in his heart.
hurriedly remedied and said: "Mom, Mom~~~"
The flattering tone made Lafayette's heart numb, "You speak well to me"
"Hey" Lin Yue nodded, "What, I heard that Shen San didn't know who to call that day, saying that there was a mine detected on our mountain, and there were quite a few, and then he said that he would quickly prepare the funds or something, and he would go find a way......"
Lin Zhende and his wife watched their daughter scratch their heads constantly, and the two of them were stunned and surprised when they saw it in each other's eyes.
Lin Zhende went out and closed the door, solemnly held his daughter in his arms, stared at her expression carefully, and said, "Girl, what you said is true?" ”
"It's true, he was holding Big Brother at the time, I listened carefully, I heard it on the roof of our house"
The two rooms are next to each other, and you can really hear what the next door is saying on the roof, and besides, your daughter knows it herself, and she will never lie.
At this time, there were already small-scale iron factories in the vicinity, but most of the ore purchased was shipped from other places, and the truck freight and labor costs alone were not a small expense.
If, if you get to the top of the road......
Zhou Yuqin's expression also became grim, "That's right, no wonder the next door has asked our family twice and twice in the past two days."
Lin Zhende patted the girl's head, pulled the girl's pigtails, and said seriously: "Girl, don't you want to say this."
"Don't even my Uncle Xu say it?"
"Your Uncle Xu is naturally okay, but let Dad say it, just remember not to tell others, even your grandfather is not allowed to say it"
Lin Yue pretended to be ignorant and nodded.
Lin Zhende didn't care about eating, put the child on the ground, and ran away in a hurry.
Zhou Yuqin didn't have the heart to eat, so she went around grinding in place, and the sisters and brothers who watched it were dizzy.
Anyway, the little one was full of food and drink, and Lin Yue took his younger brother into the house.
Yuan'an estimated that he ate a lot of persimmons, which would be shouting heartburn, Lin Yue was also anxious, sneaked into the space, used the enamel jar to connect the space water of the half tea jar, drank a few sips, and fed Lin Yuanan a few sips.
The kid hummed and chirped a few times, and saw that her sister said good things to feed him water, so he barely drank a mouthful, but the water entered the stomach, and suddenly pressed the burning heat down, and he didn't care whether it was uncomfortable or not, and he held the tea jar and drank it.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the yard, Lin Yue opened the door and looked twice, and sure enough, Xu Pengcheng and her father walked in one after the other.
The heart that was hanging in my heart was only half let go, and I just wanted to go out to inquire about something, but I happened to meet Lafayette who had finished cleaning up, and I didn't have any ideas now.
Her mother hates listening to the corners of the wall......
