Xiao Tao waved his hand indifferently and comforted his father, "It's okay, although that son is noble, he is a good person!" There is no shelf! You don't have to be nervous, besides, he likes my cooking, and nothing else! When the time comes, put the table in the courtyard and let them sit, and the neighbors will only be envious, jealous and hateful, and all rumors will be broken! ”

Xiao Tao Daddy frowned, still drumming in her heart, nervous, after eating, Xiao Tao Daddy drove the mule cart out with an unsteady face, Xiao Tao Niang hurriedly cleaned up the house, wiped the table and stool over and over again, and took out the peanuts and sugar she had saved.

The second aunt over there led the Jinling sisters up the hillside, and walked to the left side of the cave, knowing that there was a dead man's pool on the right, so she didn't dare to pull the child to go there, and went into the mountains and forests, looking for them in the mountains and mountains, and several people didn't dare to separate.

"Mother, look, there are really mushrooms!" Jin Se pointed to a big tree, there are really mushrooms, a piece of mushrooms like a small umbrella, bulging meat, a few people squatted down carefully, for fear that it would be worthless, and the mother was not afraid of hard work, looking for it all the way.

And Shaoshan Shaocong entered the forest like a bird released from the cage, scurrying around, first took a look, there was no one in the cave, just in the forest, for a while on the tree to touch the bird's eggs, for a while chasing the hares to run, after all, the children who grew up in the mountains, about ten years old, have a wild nature in their bones.

Xiao Tao watched his mother spin around nervously at home, not knowing what to do, and laughed in his heart, "Mother, you go to the field to cut a bundle of leeks, come back and pick them clean, wash them and dry them, I will cut the meat into pieces and chop the dumplings first." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll go!" After saying that, he turned around, slipped into the vegetable basket, and went out with a sickle.

Xiao Tao soaked the sun-dried shiitake mushrooms he picked in hot water to make a shiitake mushroom meat.

Then I sat down in front of the board and began to chop the meat filling, and suddenly I felt like I went back to my old hometown and made dumplings with my grandparents during the New Year, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but rise.

Xiao Tao Niang carried the basket out of the door and turned right, the vegetable fields are all behind the house, they are all wasteland reclaimed by themselves, there are many stones in it, it is all painstaking to pick up the stones, and fertilize them to raise them well, so that they can grow vegetables.

Further away, the geology is getting better and better, a horse Pingchuan, endless are green wheat fields, the wheat has shown a full ear, heavy straight head, the leaves have grown to the extreme dark green, some of the leaves have begun to yellow, a breeze blows, the wheat waves blow through a wave, it is gratifying! It's another good year!

"Auntie, come and cut leeks?" Cuilan, the daughter-in-law of the force, is setting up seedlings for cucumbers and pulling weeds in her field.

Before Xiao Tao Niang could answer, she was intercepted by a loud voice.

"Yo! Xiucai Niang, let's eat dumplings today! Got a guest at home? Aunt Du came to the vegetable field to pull vegetables and watched Xiao Tao Niang squatting on the ground to cut leeks.

"Hmmm! My little Tao said that he wanted to invite the noble son who lived in the cave on the mountain to come to our house to eat dumplings, and I don't know who said that our little Tao is the concubine of the noble son of the family, it is really smelly and rotten, don't let me know who it is, otherwise I will break her mouth! Xiao Tao Niang looked at Aunt Du coldly, she is a famous big mouth in the village!

Aunt Du smiled and snorted in her heart, whose eldest girl runs up the mountain every day, I heard that the boy on the mountain is handsome, but he is rich, he must have been hooked!

"Then why does your Tao'er go up the mountain every day, how do you know the noble son?"

"Humph! Our Taoer is a diligent person, every day up the mountain to pick mushrooms, the noble son happened to be looking for something on the mountain, and they met, my Tao'er cooked deliciously, and the noble son asked my Tao'er to cook three meals a day for him, and gave him ten taels of silver a month! Xiao Tao Niang smiled proudly, and then raised one of her hands, the silver bracelet sparkled in the sun, burning Aunt Du's eyes.

"Yo! This big bracelet, Xiucai Niang has made a fortune? Or did your daughter-in-law give it to you? Aunt Du said warmly and sadly.

"Where is the need for a daughter-in-law! My daughter is capable! This is what our Tao'er bought for me in the town yesterday, and it was the maid money given by the son of the flower family, and the hairpin on the head cost a total of seven taels of silver! Xiao Tao Niang stroked her hair with the back of her hand, touched the hairpin, shook the bracelet, and continued with a proud face.

"If you want me to say it! What they gossip about is jealousy, even if our family Tao'er follows that noble son, it is also a noble lady who has entered a big family, eats fragrant and drinks spicy, and lives a good life! Someone! I just can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour! ”

Aunt Du's face was red and white, and she pulled a few rapes and went home, muttering on the way, "Hmph! Isn't it just a broken bracelet! I also asked my daughters to buy it for me, and I have three daughters! That's not as beautiful as that stinky girl in your house, no, I will also let my daughter go up the mountain, and I will definitely be able to take that errand! ”

Xiao Tao Niang glared at Aunt Du, saw her twist her body and left, and snorted, "Stinky girl, that rumor must be indispensable to you!" ”

At home, Xiao Taoran boiled a bowl of spice water to dry, chopped the meat filling and mushrooms, and then mixed a large pot of noodles to let it eat first.

Waiting for my mother not to come back, I thought about bringing out the mushroom stuffing first.

Burn oil on a small fire to fry spices such as peppercorns and spices, fry them in the miso until fragrant, turn off the heat and add all the meat fillings and stir well, add green onions, ginger and garlic, pour in cooking wine to remove the fishy, chicken essence, thirteen spices are not, it's a pity, but thirteen spices can do some after thirteen spices.

Stir vigorously with four chopsticks in one direction until the meat is strong, and add some of the boiled water to it every time you stir, so that you can fill the soup dumplings, the soup is thick, rich and fragrant, one bite at a time, and the mouth is full of fragrance!

Xiao Tao Niang came back after a while, Xiao Tao had already reconciled the mushroom filling, Xiao Tao Niang hurriedly washed the leeks, about eleven o'clock, the two of them made the filling, and quickly started to wrap, Xiao Tao Niang is also a capable person, rolling the skin quickly, the thickness is uniform, and the size is appropriate.

The small pottery bag is also fast, and the ingots are like big-bellied dumplings, and there are many skin fillings.

Shao Shan and Shao Cong ran crazy all morning, making their faces gray and covered with grass clippings, and when they returned to the cave, they saw that there were people in the middle cave, the door was open, and the other two doors were closed, and there was a noble man with dark purple hair sitting inside.

There were two guards standing on one side. If Xiao Tao can tell at a glance that it is the guard Xiao Jia of Yuelai Restaurant.

The two little guys hurriedly washed their hands and faces by the canal, it was impolite to talk to people like that, and then they returned to the door and stood still, arching their hands inside, Shao Shan was older, and shouted thoughtfully, "Is Situ Ran here?" ”
