It is not difficult to make glutinous rice cakes, but it is more laborious.

Xue Wu had already soaked the glutinous rice a day in advance, and after arriving at the vegetable garden, she went into the kitchen, drained the glutinous rice, steamed it in a steamer, and put the glutinous rice into a stone mortar after steaming.

The most important step in making glutinous rice is to pound the glutinous rice, which needs to be hammered repeatedly with a mallet until it is gelatinous, and this work will be handed over to Pei Lian.

She is in charge of turning the glutinous rice dough herself.

At first, Pei Lin didn't dare to hammer down, because he was afraid of hitting her hand, "It's okay, I'll withdraw my hand in advance, as long as we master the rhythm and cooperate well, it will be fine, come!" ”

Pei Lin tentatively picked up the hammer, and Xue Wu really retracted her hand before that, and when he picked up the hammer, she quickly turned the glutinous rice over.

After a few clicks, Pei Lin also relaxed.

The two cooperated tacitly and beat out a ball of glutinous rice.

The process of thrashing is relatively boring, after all, it is not a technical job, it only requires effort, but Xue Wu did not feel impatient at all, but felt that the process of taking time to make the same food slowly made people feel very comfortable.

Here, there is no anxiety, no pollution, no complicated interpersonal interactions, everything is so comfortable and natural.

Seeing the glutinous rice balls in the stone mortar in front of her gradually take shape, Xue Wu only had pure joy.

"Tired or not?" She asked Pei Lian.

Pei Lian just wanted to shake his head, thought about it, and nodded again.

"Then rest for a while, there's no rush anyway." Xue Wan beckoned to him, and Pei Lin obediently walked up to her and squatted down.

She took a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, took out a jar of candy from her purse, fed him one, and ate one herself.

Chewing sweet toffee in her mouth, looking at the handsome face close at hand, her heart seemed to become sweet.

After resting for a while, the two continued to work again, like a young couple working together.

By noon, the glutinous rice balls had been beaten, Xue Wu sprinkled glutinous rice flour on the clean mat, and Pei Lin put dozens of catties of glutinous rice balls on it.

The two of them worked together to press the big glutinous rice ball into a cake shape, and they stained their hands with flour and some on their faces.

Seeing Pei Lian's serious pressing, Xue Wu suddenly had a little troublesome thoughts, reached out and clicked on his nose, deliberately got the white powder on it, and ran away after wiping it.

Pei was stunned for a moment, reacted and hurriedly chased after him.

Xue Wu laughed and dodged, but in the end, he still caught up and slammed on the wall.

She covered her face with her arm, revealing only a pair of eyes, "Akang, I was wrong. "Trying to get him to let himself go.

Pei Lin leaned down and looked at her, "What's wrong with my sister-in-law?" ”

Xue Wu's eyes rolled, and she suddenly attacked him, and her two hands were directly pasted on his face, seeing that his face was wiped white, she let out a wanton and happy laugh.

When she was about to run again, Pei Lin reached out and stopped her waist, and put his face on her face, rubbing and rubbing, "Now my sister-in-law has also become white." ”

Laughing and laughing, the glutinous rice cake is finally done.

After being dried overnight, you can cut it the next morning. The glutinous rice dumplings have been completely cooled and will not stick to the knife when cutting, but if they are cooled for too long, the glutinous rice cakes will be too hard and will be very laborious when cutting.

This time is just right.

Cut the dumplings into palm-sized pieces and fry them, boil them, roast them over a fire, or boil them with sweet wine and add sugar.

This morning's breakfast was rice wine boiled with eggs in it.

Xue Wu also sent some to Dr. He.

When I went, I also met people from the village, and I also went to deliver glutinous rice to Dr. He, as well as mung bean balls, tofu, etc.

They are all prepared for the New Year.

Dr. He lives alone, so he doesn't care much about food and clothing, even if it is just a few simple dishes for the New Year, so he will not specially prepare food.

However, every holiday, the benefits of his doctor are reflected.

The villagers received his favor on weekdays, and at this time they would send some home-made food to his house, which was not expensive, but it was also a thought.

Following the glutinous rice cake, Xue Wu took Pei Lin and Xue Qing and Xue Xiu to make fish balls, fish noodles, meatballs, etc.

Fish noodles are also a traditional delicacy here, in which the thornless fish meat removed from the large fish is chopped into minced meat, mixed with flour, rolled into thin slices the size of a table, and then rolled into long strips about two fingers wide and steamed in a steamer.

After getting out of the pot, Xue Wu took out the fish noodles with special large chopsticks, and there was still hot white gas on them.

Xue Wu cut off a short section of her thumb and took a bite.

The steamed fish noodles can be eaten directly, but this is certainly not the final way to eat, and the fish noodles are a little salty.

Pei Lin leaned over and took a bite of her hand, he really hadn't eaten this kind of traditional southern food.

"How? Is it tasty? Xue asked with a smile.

"It's delicious." It's just a little salty.

Pei Lin silently added in his heart.

Xue Wan handed him the remaining half, "Oh, it's all for you." ”

After Pei Lin finished eating, he drank a large cup of tea.

After steaming, the fish noodles need to be further processed, and the long strips of fish noodles are cut into slices like cutting vegetables, and after drying, the fish noodles become hard and hard, so that the fish noodles can be stored for a long time.

When you want to eat it, grab a handful and take it out, you can stew it with pork ribs, and after cooking, the fish noodles will spread out and become a long strip like noodles, with a slightly yellow color, soaked in the soup, mellow and fragrant, delicious and filling.

You can also soak it soft and stir-fry it, and it tastes very good.

On the twenty-fifth day, a snow-white pigeon flew into the courtyard of the Xue family.

Xue Wu untied a thin bamboo tube from the pigeon's leg and took out a text message from it. The letter was written by Chen Tian, saying that the school had been built, and asked her when she would go over to check it.

Xue Wu wrote a reply, fed the pigeon a handful of spiritual rice, and fed diluted spiritual spring water, the pigeon rubbed on her hand, and flew away with the reply, the speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it became a black dot and disappeared.

This is a spirit pigeon that she raised in space, it is very spiritual, and its flight speed is much faster than that of ordinary carrier pigeons, and it can fly hundreds of miles a day.

From here to Fengchi County, it only takes more than ten minutes.

Moreover, the beak and claws of the spirit pigeon have also become sharper, and its combat power has greatly increased, even if it encounters a bird of prey in the sky, it is not afraid.

Although its combat effectiveness has improved, the spirit pigeon's temperament is still smooth and gentle, and it will not attack at will.

Such a spirit pigeon is perfect for sending a message.

In the evening, Xue Wu gave Pei Lin a preventive injection in advance, "I have something to go to the city tomorrow, and I will come back directly with my mother and them when the time comes, in the middle of the next few days, I will ask Uncle He to take care of you, Ah Xiu will cook for you, don't run around, okay?" ”

Pei Lin hugged her, buried his head in her arms, and said sullenly: "It's not good, can't my sister-in-law take me with me?" ”

Xue Wu touched his head and sighed helplessly, she was going to deal with the affairs of "Zhao Xiaoxian", where was it convenient to take him?
