The scales are heavy, so you don't need to use too much force, and you can smash the pine nut shell open with a light smash.

Zhou Tiantian got the old lady's guidance, and now she was happy, took the scales, smashed the pine nuts one by one, and waited for them all to be smashed and then picked up the pine nuts one by one to eat, well, delicious, really fragrant.

Zhou Tiantian is a small hand, and the white and tender little fat hand is flexible, and after a while, he took out a small handful of white pine nuts.

"Milk, for you." Zhou Tiantian held the pine nut kernel and wanted to give it to Mrs. Zhou.

The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Oh, it's still my little sweetheart who is the most intimate, and spent so much effort to pick up pine nuts for grandma to eat." ”

The old lady hugged Zhou Tiantian and kissed her little granddaughter's tender and smooth face, "I can't eat so much milk, we are half of each other." ”

The little granddaughter bothered to pick it out, she would definitely be unhappy if she didn't want it at all, the old lady knew what her granddaughter's temper was, so she reached out and took half of it, and the other half was left for Zhou Tiantian.

"Give you a piece of candy, just eat it with sugar, the pine nuts are sweet and fragrant." The old lady grabbed a piece of candy, peeled off the candy paper, and stuffed it to Zhou Tiantian.

Sweet sugar, fragrant pine nuts, the two foods are mixed together, and it becomes a fragrant and sweet intoxicating taste of happiness, Zhou Tiantian narrowed his eyes slightly, savoring and enjoying.

Mrs. Zhou looked at her lovely little granddaughter with a loving smile on her face.

Seeing the little granddaughter's happy and satisfied little appearance, the old lady stretched out her hand and rubbed the top of her Tiantian head, "There are a lot of delicious foods prepared at home, and you can get whatever you want to eat."

I remember there were frozen pears in the barn, right? Let your eldest sister pick up some after a while, and put the cold water on it, it's delicious. ”

This autumn, the Zhou family's income was good, and in addition to the exchange of food, there were still four or five hundred yuan left.

Coupled with the salaries of Zhou Anbang, Zhou Yongping, Zhou Yongqing, and Zhou Lili, as well as the Xu and Han families selling bean sprouts to earn money in winter, even if they spent a lot of money on Yongping's marriage, the family was still very rich.

Especially in the past few days, the old lady was very happy to sell bean sprouts and made a lot of money, and specially asked her daughters-in-law to buy more New Year's goods, and this year the family did prepare a lot of delicious food.

"Milk, there are frozen pears at home? Oops, I have to talk to my eldest sister quickly. When Zhou Tiantian heard that there were frozen pears, her eyes immediately widened.

She'd heard of it for a long time, but she hadn't seen it before, and it was said to be delicious.

Zhou Tiantian's character is what she wants to do immediately, so she hurriedly put on her shoes and went to the kitchen to find Zhou Lili, "Eldest sister, our grandmother said that there are frozen pears in the warehouse, let's go pick up some slow?" Zhou Tiantian looked at Zhou Lili with a look of hope and said.

Zhou Lili was helping to pick up green onions, and when she heard her little sister's words, she smiled, and reached out to twist Zhou Tiantian's face, "Little gluttonous cat, is this another gluttony?" Let's go, take the basin, let's pick up the frozen pears. ”

Frozen pear is a special fruit, which should be said to be endemic to Northeast China.

At first, there was a special variety of pears, and when they were picked in autumn, they were sour and difficult to eat, so they had to be left outside to freeze.

Ordinary fruits will be difficult to eat if frozen, but this kind of pear is diametrically opposed, after being frozen, take it back and slowly open it with cold water, take a bite gently, it is full of sweet and sour juice, the flesh is delicate and white, and the taste is particularly good.

Later, people also put apple pears or flower cover pears outside to freeze, and the taste of these two is also good, but compared with authentic frozen pears, it is still a little worse.

Zhou Tiantian followed Zhou Lili and the others to the warehouse with a flashlight, and found a flower basket in the corner of the warehouse.

"Ah, this year there are not only frozen pears, but also frozen persimmons, this one is also delicious." Zhou Lili took a flashlight into the basket and found that the red fruit inside was also frozen and hard, so she quickly picked up some and put them in the basin.

"Frozen persimmons are more expensive than frozen pears, and in previous years, our milk was reluctant to buy them, but it is estimated that the bean sprouts made money this year, and the eldest aunt bought them." Zhou Lili picked it up and chattered at the same time.

The sisters picked up most of the frozen pears and frozen persimmons in the basin and returned to the house, and then found a large basin to hold and added a lot of cold water.

Slow-frozen pears and persimmons can not be frozen with hot water, otherwise the slowness is too urgent, the outer skin is easy to rot, and the inside is still frozen with a hard core.

The cold water slowly boils, and the inside melts, so it's good to take a bite and absorb the juice.

After the sisters were busy with the frozen pears, the dumpling filling was adjusted, and the noodles were almost awake, so they moved a large panel into the house, and the old lady led her daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law and granddaughters to make dumplings together.

The dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve are more exquisite, naturally Zhou Tiantian can't get started, and Zhou Tiantian sits next to watch.

The Zhou family makes dumplings as before, the old lady makes the medicine by herself, and Xu and others divide the labor and roll the dough and make dumplings.

Because it is a dumpling on Chinese New Year's Eve, the old lady asked people to prepare a penny of coins, candy, peanuts, dates, etc. wrapped in dumplings to make an auspicious picture.

Zhou Tiantian looked at the penny coin, and remembered the videos she had watched before, some children tried to eat dumplings with money on a full plate with magnets, because the iron content in the coin is relatively large, and the magnet must have a reaction.

For now, magnets are not very useful, and coins contain less iron and more aluminum.

And most of the plates at this time are enamel plates, if you try to put the magnet aside, I am afraid that I will not suck the dumplings with money, but will suck the plate away.

When Zhou Tiantian thought of that picture, she felt very funny.

"Tiantian, you won't be allowed to wrap the dumplings tonight, so you can be the dumpling legs, and help put the dumplings on the panel on the curtain, and arrange them neatly."

Mrs. Zhou saw that her little granddaughter was sitting there obediently, so she hurriedly assigned a task to Zhou Tiantian.

There are a lot of rules in the Zhou family, and the dumplings must be placed next to each other with a curtain, and they are not allowed to put several curtains at the same time.

These several people surrounded the panel, and those far away from the curtain would definitely not be able to put it up, so they could only be placed on the panel first. Mrs. Zhou arranged for Zhou Tiantian to do this errand.

Zhou Tiantian didn't care, if there was work, he would sit with or without work, besides, it was not difficult to put dumplings, so he happily came over to help, and carefully placed the dumplings on the curtain one by one, neatly and neatly, and the order could not be messed up.

I heard Mrs. Zhou mention that if the order of dumplings in the Chinese New Year's Eve is messed up, the children's family affairs at home will be out of order.

Zhou Tiantian didn't believe this, but this big New Year's bad thing made the family unhappy, so Zhou Tiantian paid special attention to it, for fear that he would make a mistake.

The old lady made the medicine, Zhou Lili, Zhou Yanyan rolled the skin, Xu and others made dumplings, Zhou Tiantian helped set up the dumplings, and the women of the family worked together, and the dumplings were naturally not slow.

I started working at seven o'clock, and by half past nine, the dumplings were finished.

"Yo, there's a lot of stuffing left, it looks like our family will be more prosperous next year." Mrs. Zhou looked at it, the noodles had all been wrapped, and there was a small bowl of dumpling filling left.

There is a local saying that if there is stuffing left over from dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve, there will be a surplus of money for the coming year, which is considered a good prize.
