Chapter 231: Wrapping Dumplings
"Okay, this Jing'er, since he was a child, he rarely tinkered with some rare things by himself, and we'll come out and see what he's going to do later. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Wang listened to Long'er's words, said with some tears and laughter, and then took Xiao Huan back to the room to change clothes.
Xuan Shijing returned to the Hou Mansion in a carriage, and asked the people in the kitchen to pack up their things and move to the big room in the mansion for gatherings.
Xuan Shijing also went back to the room to change his clothes, and came out of the palace, still wearing the plain clothes for Li Yuan's spirit, so naturally he couldn't dress like this to see the Wang family.
After changing clothes and going to the room, the guys in the kitchen have prepared some messy things, the two big copper stoves are burning red, and the heating in the room is smoking.
When Wang arrived with Long'er and Xiao Huan, Xuan Shijing had already taken the cook in the kitchen to start working, kneading the dough, and the filling, the black sesame seeds were crushed with a small grinding plate, and the icing was also pounded into powder, and then wrapped in glutinous rice flour, rolled two or three times in the glutinous rice noodles, and the round rice balls became shaped.
"Jing'er, what are you doing here? This snow-white and round is quite pleasing to look at. Wang saw Xuan Shijing's tangyuan on the table and praised it.
"Mother, this thing is called Tangyuaner, it is to catch up with the food to be eaten on the Shangyuan Festival, which means reunion, just like the moon in the sky, although it is said that the moon of the fifteenth is sixteen round, but you look at the moon of the Shangyuan Festival, isn't it also round, this full moon is reunited, and the family eats hot rice balls, what a good thing." Xuan Shijing explained with a smile, and then pulled Wang to sit down: "Mother, you can try it too." ”
Xuan Shijing and Wang and others sat together, Wang also learned to start making rice balls, Wang was a clever man, after Xuan Shijing signaled twice, he learned, and wrapped the rice balls, which was more round than Xuan Shijing.
"Mother, this rice ball is particular about the thin skin and big filling, don't wrap the outer dough too thick in order to look round." Xuan Shijing said.
"Mother knows, this bag of dumplings is not difficult, it is the same as making steamed buns...... Wang said with a smile.
Xuan Shijing was embarrassed, what is the connection between this bag of dumplings and steamed buns, Xuan Shijing really can't think of it for a while.
Wang beckoned Long'er and Xiao Huan together, sat down, and began to make rice balls, listening to Xuan Shijing say that the meaning of this rice balls is reunion, Wang wanted to wrap some more, and give a point to the people in the house.
Xuan Shijing and Wang and two maids sat next to the table to make rice balls, Shi Hu had great strength, and he was chopping firewood in the yard, Gao Jun moved the firewood to the house, and the cook in the kitchen was responsible for putting rice balls into the pot.
Soon, the first pot of rice balls was cooked and served in the bowl, and Xuan Shijing brought the bowl containing the rice balls to Wang's side and said, "Mother, come and taste it." ”
Wang took the bowl, scooped out a rice ball from the bowl with a spoon, put it to his mouth, blew it, and took a gentle bite.
The white skin on the outside is bitten off, and the black sesame stuffing inside flows out, this mouthful, melts in the mouth, glutinous, sweet, very likeable.
"Yes, it's delicious." Wang praised from the bottom of his heart.
"If it's delicious, eat more, by the way, Long'er, you go and scoop some soup from the pot to cool it, this glutinous rice ball is sweet and greasy, drink more soup after eating it for a while." Xuan Shijing said.
"Yes, Master Hou." Long'er responded, then took the basin, got up and went to the pot to fill most of the pot with half a pot of soup and put it on the table to cool.
One after another, the rice balls began to come out of the pot, Xuan Shijing accompanied the Wang family with a bowl to eat the rice balls, while Long'er and Xiao Huan held the basin containing the rice balls and began to eat the rice balls for the people below.
This Shangyuan Festival, no matter how the people outside live, anyway, the meal in the Hou Mansion is happy, during the national funeral, you can't open meat, anyway, this glutinous rice ball is also vegetarian, white and fat, just this color, it is not related to committing taboos.
"Someone." After eating, Xuan Shijing called the subordinates in the house over.
"Pack the rest of the rice balls, send them to the palace, go to the Shangshi Bureau and cook them for Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, by the way, and Princess Jinyang, they have sent some of them, well, Your Majesty and Niangniang sent twenty, Princess Jinyang sent seven or eight, and the rest was sent to the Spirit Hall to the three His Highnesses" Xuan Shijing looked at the table on the side, there were probably thirty or forty uncooked rice balls left, just send them to the palace, this Li Yuan goes, maybe what will happen to the son, and then Li Chengqian and their brothers, I knelt in the spirit hall for a day, and I only drank some soup in the middle, so where did it happen?
I heard my son say before, although there is a gap between His Majesty Li Er and Emperor Li Yuan, Li Yuan loves Jinyang's granddaughter very much, that is to ask the stars not to give the moon, to eat fish and not to stew chicken, Jinyang will also go to Da'an Palace every day to accompany Li Yuan for a while.
As soon as the emperor died, the son must be very sad.
Thinking of this, Xuan Shijing is also a little worried about the situation of Princess Jinyang in the palace, now His Majesty Li Er is dealing with the funeral of Emperor Taishang in accordance with the regulations prepared by the Ministry of Rites, Empress Changsun is worried about His Majesty Li Er's body, so she naturally accompanies her day and night, and Li Chengqian, Li Ke and Li Tai's brother are guarding the spirit in the Spirit Hall, which is to be guarded until the day of the funeral, and only Princess Jinyang is left alone in the warm pavilion, how lonely it is.
The subordinates in the house took Xuan Shijing's token, took the food box, loaded the rice balls on the table, and hurried to Miyagi.
As Xuan Shijing guessed, Jin Yang has been in the warm pavilion for a day, in front of the emperor's spirit, Jin Yang, as a princess, just went to kneel down, then was led back by the little eunuch, has stayed in this warm pavilion, never went out, now the palace is full of chaos, Jin Yang doesn't want to cause any more trouble to the palace people, so he locked himself in the study all day and never came down.
The imperial grandfather who loved him passed away, and Jin Yang didn't say anything all day, just sat there sullenly, and he couldn't read his favorite books in the past, so he sat there in a daze.
The palace maids and eunuchs guarding the staircase also silently accompanied Jin Yang all day, and when they saw their princess like this, they didn't dare to come forward to disturb, but they were worried that the princess had not eaten all day, and what should she do if she was hungry.
