Chapter 19 Walk Relatives
Time is in Ye Zi's playing, sleeping, sleeping, and a few days have passed unconsciously, there is no trouble in being a child, and the days of being a rice worm pass faster, almost waking up to eat, eat and sleep, and more than half of the day has passed.
On this day in mid-June, Ye Zi saw that her mother was soaking glutinous rice, and her mother told Ye Zi to soak glutinous rice and make flour to make oil horns.
"Oh, yes, yes, there's oil horn to eat, there's something to eat!"
Ye Zi couldn't help drooling when she thought about it, she hadn't eaten the oil horn made by her mother for many years, and after the life of the family got better in her previous life, her relatives went to the cake house to buy cookies.
……
Mother Ye Yao put the glutinous rice that had been soaked for more than an hour on a plate, and took Ye Zi to grind rice flour at someone with a stone mill.
"How far does Mom have to go?" There are many places in my memory where people have stone mills.
"Still have to walk a long way, are you tired? Do you want your mother to carry you? ”
"I'm not tired, I'll go by myself."
"Then you walk slowly, don't be in a hurry, walk carefully, and step on the stones on the road carefully."
"Uh-huh"
……
Along the way, there are stone mud brick houses, or Ye Shirong's stone and blue brick houses, cattle pens, chicken pens, pig pens, and houses with pig feces, and the smell is thick in the air.
There is a stone mill in the same village, and there is a small house that has a stone mill, which specializes in grinding rice flour, and does not charge your money, you can borrow it to grind rice flour.
When I went to the house where the stone mill was placed, someone was grinding, and my mother hurried to help grind it faster.
This kind of stone mill has a wooden rocking board that looks like a rocking board, and one end is pressed hard, and the mouth of the opposite end is attached to a long stone.
There is a big stone bowl under a stone, and when a person steps on it with his foot, the wood is shaken to the stone mouth of the face, and he hits it into a stone bowl filled with rice, and the rice can be ground into powder by stepping on it for more than an hour.
Mother Ye Yao helped others grind for half an hour to grind it, and when she grinded it herself, her mother stepped on it hard, Ye Zi helped dig a big spoon of rice with a big spoon and put it in the stone grinding bowl, grind for a while and put a spoonful, until she finished putting the glutinous rice in her hand and saw that it was ground into powder.
Mother Ye Yaoshi grinded the rice noodles, took Ye Zi back home, took a missed rice noodle, and leaked out the non-powdered millet.
Add sugar to boil into sugar water, add sugar water and put powder to knead, knead the powder into a long strip, and then knead it into a small section, the small section is pinched into a round piece by hand, and then wrapped in the filling, there are peanuts, melon sugar, sesame sugar ......and so on in the filling. Kneaded into horns and fried in oil.
"Mom, what are you frying so fragrant? I'm going to eat. ”
"Fried oil corners, tomorrow your grandmother's birthday, take it to grandma's house."
"Uh-huh, where can I eat? I want to eat. Second brother Ye Wu sniffed and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
"Now it's just fried and steamed, and you have to let it cool before you can eat a little."
"Oh, I want to eat so much, I can only eat a little!" The eldest brother Ye Wen was a little disappointed.
"Yes, if you eat too much, you won't be able to take it to grandma's house."
"Oh, yes, there's another big meal."
……
Children who don't have meat to eat really can't afford to hurt the ground! I haven't eaten one or two meals of meat and meat for a month, Ye Zi feels that I have eaten white porridge every day since I came back for so many days, and my mouth is light, and I am very hungry for meat!
The next day, after waking up and washing their faces, and having breakfast, the family of five set off to go to grandma's house, because it was walking, it took more than an hour to go to grandma's house, and parents had to go early to help cook.
Father Ye Xingrong carried Ye Zi on his back, and mother Ye Yao held two baskets. The two brothers held hands and set off.
"Hey, where are you going, the whole family is wearing new clothes, the whole family is traveling?"
"yes, go relatives."
"Oooh"
……
Passing by the fish pond, the small river all the way out of the village, the people who know are curious to ask, they all know that their family is poor, usually at home wear old clothes can not be old clothes to work, very small to see walking with good things.
Walking out of the village and walking in the direction of the town, it takes half an hour to walk to the town, and it is much slower to walk with children.
"Are you two brothers tired of walking, if you are tired, rest for a while before you go."
"Mom, I'm not tired, it's just so hot, how long will it take to walk to my grandmother's house, the second brother Ye Wu is excited to walk and run and jump, looking around, the fields of various villages on both sides of the road, the rice is green and blooming, the air is fresh, and the fragrance of rice flowers is strong."
"Look, you are sweating profusely, wipe your handkerchiefs with your sweat."
