was spoiled by the two bests, Bai Tang didn't want to go outside anymore, and went home directly. In winter, the days are short, but by four o'clock in the afternoon, it has already darkened. Bai Tang took a taxi back to his downstairs, looked up, and saw that his own lights had been turned on, and Bai Tang's heart also lit up.

"I'm back!" Bai Tang opened the door and saw Bai Dad, Bai Ma and Wu Xuemei making dumplings around the dining table, while Xing Xiaokang was sitting next to the coffee table and doing his homework.

"Dumplings today?" Bai Tang looked at the white chubby dumplings that had been half covered with a curtain, and his saliva began to flood.

"Yes, lamb filling, let you eat enough!" Bai Ma rolls the dumpling skin, although the Bai family is not a northerner, they all like to eat pasta, and often make some buns, dumplings and rolling noodles. I saw Bai Ma holding a small dough and gently pressing it down, holding a rolling pin in her right hand, pressing most of the dough, turning the rolling pin up and down, and holding the unpressed dough in her left hand while turning it, turning the dough while rolling. After a while, the dumpling skin, which was thin on the outside and bulging in the middle, was rolled out evenly.

Bai Dad and Wu Xuemei are in charge of making dumplings, both of them are proficient, put the filling in the center of the dumpling skin, fold the dumpling skin in half, pinch the thumb and index finger, and the dumplings are pinched, and they are very cute.

Bai Tang hurriedly washed his hands and sat down next to Wu Xuemei, picked up a dumpling wrapper and began to wrap: "How to make mutton dumplings?" ”

"I went to buy mutton stew today, thinking that I wanted to make dumplings, so I bought more mutton dumplings." Bai Ma said while rolling the dough.

"It's not the winter solstice today!" Bai Tang said. Eating dumplings and drinking mutton soup is a custom on the winter solstice, right? Every year on the day of the winter solstice of the lunar calendar, dumplings are an indispensable holiday meal for rich and poor. As the proverb goes: "On the first day of October, the winter solstice arrives, and every household eats dumplings." This custom is said to have been left in commemoration of the "medical saint" Zhang Zhongjing's winter solstice medicine.

"Who said that if it's not the winter solstice, you can't eat dumplings and drink mutton soup?" Bai Ma glanced at her daughter, "Eating mutton often in the cold winter can nourish qi and replenish deficiency, promote blood circulation, and enhance the ability to keep out the cold; It also protects the stomach lining and aids digestion. In winter, eat more mutton and drink more mutton soup. I'm still thinking about making mutton hot pot in two days, but since I don't like it, it's better not to eat it. ”

"How could it not be liked! I love lamb and love it so much! Bai Tang hurriedly surrendered, with a flattering smile on his face.

"If you want to eat, hurry up and give me a bag!" The white mother directs her daughter to work.

“Yesmadam！” Bai Tang raised his hand and gave a nondescript military salute, amusing the other three adults.

"Mom, I don't know if I have a question." Xing Xiaokang held up the exercise book and asked her mother for advice.

Her mother directly shirked the responsibility: "Ask your aunt to go, she is a college student!" ”

College students also shirk their responsibilities: "Ask your grandfather to go, he is a university teacher!" ”

Dad Bai didn't push anymore, washed his hands, and went to tutor elementary school students with their homework.

"Sugar Candy, are you free tomorrow?"

"Yes, what are you going to do?" Bai Tang asked.

"I'll buy the meat back tomorrow, and we'll fill the sausages together!" Bai Ma said.

"So what's the trouble? Isn't there sausage stuffing in the market? It won't work if you just pour it and get it back. ”

"How can the outside be as clean and delicious as the home-filled?" Bai Ma turned to Wu Xuemei, "Xiaomei, are you pouring with us or separately?" ”

"Let's do it together!" Wu Xuemei said with a smile, "Anyway, I won't go back to my parents' house for the New Year, I will spend it with you with Xiaokang." ”

"Okay, let's go buy meat together tomorrow. There are only two people in your family, and it should be enough to buy five catties. ”

The three of them were talking, and after a while, the dumplings were all wrapped, and Bai Ma went into the kitchen to boil water, "Wu Xuemei cleaned up the dining table and washed the dishes, and Bai Tang came to Bai Dad and Xing Xiaokang to see the elementary school topics that made her father a teacher difficult.

"The 2,004 squares were lined up, and the three children took turns dyeing the squares in turn. From the first one, A dyes one square red, B dyes two squares yellow, C dyes three squares blue, A dyes four more squares red, B dyes five squares yellow, and C paints six squares blue,...... Until all the squares are colored. How many squares are dyed blue? ”

"There is such a story in ancient Russia. A flock of geese was flying, and another wild goose touched them and shouted, "Hello! 100 geese. The wild goose that led the way replied, "No, we are not 100 animals, if we add 100 percent, then 50 percent of the original flock, then 25 percent of the original flock, and finally you will have 100 animals." Tell me: How many do we have? ”

"The circumference of a circle is 1.26 meters, and two ants start at the same time from the two ends of a diameter and crawl in opposite directions along the circumference. The two ants crawled 0.04 and 0.05 meters per second, respectively, and crawled for 1 second, 3 seconds, and 5 seconds...... (consecutive odd numbers), just turn around and crawl. So, how many seconds have they been crawling when they meet? ”

"Find the pattern: (1) 1,3,4,7,11,(),(); （2）1，2，3，6，11，20，（），（）； (3)7,3,10,3,13,3,(),(4)1,2,5,13,34,89,(),()(5)Equal difference series: 11,14,17,20...... What is the tolerance? What is item 15? What is the sum of the top 15 items? What is the number of items corresponding to the number 101? ”

“……”

Bai Tang looked at it with a big head: "I fork!" Is this a math problem for the third grade of elementary school? ”

"It's an Olympiad problem!" Xing Xiaoxue raised his head and said, with frustration on his little face, he didn't know any of these questions.

Bai Tang rubbed the child's head comfortingly: "These Olympiad questions are impossible to answer even for junior high school students, you are only in the third grade of primary school, it will not be normal, don't be depressed." ”

Bai Tang thought of the complaints of parents about the Olympiad problems in primary school on the Internet, thinking that these Olympiad problems are not to develop children's intelligence but to toss children: "The brain can be used to think about more other beneficial knowledge, and it is used to grind on it", "Both teachers and parents feel that the things in the textbook are not addictive, and they take pleasure in stumping children." "The China Institute of Social Research once found that forcing children who are not strong in mathematical logic to learn Olympiad mathematics will destroy their normal thinking and lead to psychological problems.

"Do you have to complete these questions?"

Xing Xiaokang shook his head.

"Then don't do it." Bai Tang is simply authentic.

"But ......"

Bai's father also agreed with his daughter's opinion: "These topics are not something you can complete now, and your teacher understands and will not embarrass you." ”

Dad Bai decided to ask Wu Xuemei to call the teacher and stop embarrassing the children with these questions.

"Are you alright? Time to eat! Wu Xuemei walked out of the kitchen with a large porcelain basin full of dumplings.

"Alright, alright!" Bai Tang replied while pulling up the child, "Let's go, eat dumplings." ”
