Chapter 38 Mixed Tastes
Seeing Yilin drinking millet porridge and eating corn tortillas like herself, Yiqing couldn't help but tease him.
"Yilin, what kind of meal do you like to eat the most?"
"Sister, I like to eat big buns, noodle soup, and salted duck eggs." Yilin reminisced about the deliciousness of salted duck eggs and couldn't help but lick his lips.
"Sister Qing, tease my brother again." The Tong family on the side saw that his son was hungry again, and he was distressed and hurriedly stopped his daughter from talking.
"Yilin, don't drool, my sister guesses, Daddy will definitely bring back delicious food today."
Hearing my sister say that my father would bring back delicious food at night, Yilin's eyes lit up instantly.
As a result, grandma came back first, and when she saw the pork in her grandmother's basket, Yilin's little mouth blossomed.
Liu was sent back by his son-in-law in an ox cart, and the little uncle entered the courtyard and said a few words of thanks to Yiqing through the screen window before going back.
After the little uncle left, Liu talked to Tong and Yiqing about going to Manchu's house.
Xie Wenxiu has been suffering from morning sickness these days, what do you eat and vomit, and she is making the whole family anxious.
Today, it happened that Liu went and took out the fresh fruits that Sister Qing specially left for her sister-in-law. Seeing the watery fruit, Xie Wenxiu had a great appetite at that time, and ate several large cherries in a row. Straight call: delicious.
"Seeing that Wenxiu ate cherries and didn't vomit, she couldn't keep her mother-in-law's mouth closed, so she had to let Man Hoard cut two catties of meat for us and bring it back."
"Mother, Sister Qing left fruit for her sister-in-law to eat, that's as it should be, the aunt of the Manchu family is too polite."
"I said the same too, but Wenxiu's mother-in-law insisted that I bring it back, and I didn't want to take it at first, and she was almost anxious with me."
Liu really didn't want to take this piece of meat, after all, her in-laws were good to her daughter, and she couldn't ask for it.
But the Manchu family cares too much about the child in Wenxiu's belly, and the fresh fruit sent by the Liu family today is just right for Wenxiu's appetite. And these watery fruits, there is no place to buy them if they have silver.
Wenxiu's mother-in-law, Guan Shi, is also a sensible person, so whatever she says, let Liu bring these two catties of meat back.
The reason is that the Liu family can't shirk it, this is for Sister Qing'er, Sister Qing is a good child, and she thinks about her sister-in-law if she has any good things.
Now that all the words have been said about this, Liu had no choice but to bring the pork back.
No, Liu asked Sister Qing what she wanted to eat at night. Yiqing thought about it for a while, and then said that she wanted to eat dumplings.
Liu: What kind of dumplings do you eat every year?
"Milk, the weather is so hot, the pork can't be put away at all, it's better for everyone to eat it fresh, it's longer than the time, and the smell is strong."
The words of the eldest granddaughter, Liu immediately understood her thoughts. The eldest granddaughter is reluctant to open a small stove because she wants the whole family to have a good meal together.
"Okay, milk, let's chop the meat now, and let's make dumplings at night." Liu told the children loudly what to eat at night, and after finishing speaking, he did not forget to find something to do for the children. "Don't be idle, you guys, go pick leeks."
"Hey, I'll go cut the leeks first." Sister Wan put down the needle and thread in her hand and went to the vegetable field.
"Milk, wrap white noodles, otherwise it will be easy to expose the filling, and the oil will leak out, what a pity." Yiqing didn't forget to tell her grandmother to wrap white noodles.
"It's just that you have a lot of ideas." Liu tapped the forehead of his eldest granddaughter and said dotingly.
Yiqing: I didn't speak, I just smiled triumphantly.
Tonight, I can finally eat the white pork stuffing that my cousin often hangs on my lips, and Yilin's little face is smiling like a flower.
Tong shook his head on the side, "Your grandmother will make unconditional concessions to a few of you, if someone else says that you want to eat dumplings, your grandmother will definitely say, eat a big slap." ”
Yiqing smiled silently and put down the needle and thread in her hand. "I'm going to help Sister Wan choose the dishes."
"I'll help too." Yilin was in good spirits at this time, and happily followed his sister to help.
One can imagine how lively the Xie family's dinner was today.
Xie Wenzhong looked at the white and fat dumplings on the plate, poured a glass of wine for his father, and then said to Liu: "Mother, I have to forget the last time our family ate dumplings with white flour and pork filling, when was it." ”
"Look at your little bit of energy, eating dumplings can't stop your mouth." Liu said about his second son in his mouth, but he had mixed tastes in his heart.
It seems that in the future, I will have to listen to my eldest granddaughter, and it is worth it to eat in exchange for the family's favor.
Yifeng shouted even more energetically: "Milk, milk, I have eaten ten dumplings." ”
"You bear child, eat dumplings and be full, don't count a few." Liu pretended to stare at the eldest grandson, and Yifeng stuck out his tongue very knowingly and continued to fight with the dumplings in the bowl.
Sister Wan was eating dumplings silently, but she was thinking about things.
In the north room of the east wing, a family of four is also eating dumplings around the kang table. Today, Xie Wenan helped Tong to sit up, and Yiqing stuffed two quilts behind her mother and asked her to lean against the wall.
"Mother, when you can't sit still, just tell us and let Dad put you down again."
"Hmm." Tong's eyes were full of smiles, Xie Wenan hadn't seen such a lady for a long time.
The saliva in Yilin's mouth was about to cross the river, but neither his father nor his sister said that they would start eating, and he could only watch the dumplings on the plate drool.
Fortunately, Yiqing found out in time that Yilin, who had endured to the limit. "Daddy, let's eat dumplings!"
"Okay, let's eat dumplings."
Xie Wenan was also distressed when he saw his son's gluttony. "Yilin, come and eat dumplings."
"Uh-huh." Yilin picked up the dumplings that his father gave him with chopsticks, took a bite slowly, and then tasted it carefully.
"Dad, this white-flour pork stuffed dumpling is really as delicious as my cousin said." Yilin ate fragrantly, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Xie Wenan sandwiched another dumpling for Yilin and put it in his small wooden bowl, as long as his son was happy to eat, he was happy.
"Why doesn't Daddy eat it?" At this time, Yilin found out that his father had not eaten dumplings yet.
"Daddy, eat it now." Xie Wenan helped Tong sandwich another dumpling and put it in her bowl. I picked up my rice bowl, took a bite, glanced at my daughter again, and said with a smile: "Today's dumplings are delicious." ”
"Well, I also think it tastes different from before." Tong also found out, but she couldn't say what was different, she only knew that it was better than before.
Yiqing knew what was going on, and she only learned about it when she crossed over here.
The flour here is processed by stone grinding, and the flour is relatively coarse.
The flour in Yiqing space is much more delicate, and no matter what you eat, the taste is better than that of the flour ground by stone mill.
