Chapter 34: Eating dumplings in the fourth room
After the filling was marinated and the dough was good, Yu Guixiang took a rolling pin, put it on the board, and began to roll the dough.
Xia Qiqi watched from the side, the woman was very skillful, and with three or two strokes, a thin and well-proportioned dumpling skin was rolled out.
Xia Qiqi took the dumpling skin, pinched some stuffing with chopsticks, connected the two dough skins, and pinched it gently, and a dumpling with thin skin and many fillings was formed!
There are many kinds of dumplings in Xia Qiqihui, ingot-shaped, flower-shaped, and crescent-shaped......
After a while, the dumplings were wrapped by Xia Qiqi and placed on the extra position on the board.
Yu Guixiang on the side, when she saw the dumplings packed by Xia Qiqi, her mouth couldn't close in surprise.
These dumplings on the board are very delicate in style, and even better than those in the town that open small restaurants, and there are many shapes, she has never seen them.
She asked, "Qiqi, how do you know how to make dumplings?" ”
My daughter has grown so big, she has never eaten dumplings, let alone made dumplings.
Even if Lao Xia's family made dumplings for the New Year, not to mention that there was less than one bowl in the four rooms, and his three daughters were not even qualified to serve on the table.
Thinking of this, Yu Guixiang was sad again!
"Look, in the gap between selling sugar gourds in the town today, I saw the proprietress of the stall next to me making dumplings, I learned for a while, and then it will be!"
Xia Qiqi smiled at Yu Guixiang.
Yu Guixiang breathed a sigh of relief, she said, if the girl hadn't seen it, it would be impossible for these things!
"Good girl, thank you for your hard work!"
Yu Guixiang rushed to Xia Qiqidao.
The two worked together, and it didn't take long for the dumplings to be wrapped.
Yu Guixiang rushed to make a fire, five months of belly, bending down, it is not very convenient, at least it is much more difficult than normal people, plus picking up firewood for a day, Yu Guixiang is indeed a little tired!
Xia Qiqi hurriedly stepped forward to support Yu Guixiang, "Mother, you rest for a while, I'll do the rest!" ”
"But ......"
"It's nothing, it's not like to say, let you raise your body and the doll in your belly!" Xia Qiqi was strong, brought a stool to Yu Guixiang, and sat down with her.
She got to the mouth of the stove, lit a fire, and got up again to wash the pot and boil hot water.
In fact, it is not yet the time of Tibetan winter, and there are still more than ten days, but Mr. Xia is too much, and a few days ago, he did not let the three daughters of the Xia family in the fourth room go over to eat.
Even Xia Duofu went to eat by himself, but Mrs. Xia's nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes.
After doing this a few times, Xia Duofu would rather go hungry than eat at Lao Xia's house.
The fire gradually started to rise, and the water in the pot began to boil.
Xia Qiqi put the dumplings in a small half pot, and the spoon in his hand was doubled in the pot, and then the lid was closed.
Yu Guixiang looked at such a sensible girl, and a burst of pride rose in her heart!
Just thinking of the group of people in the old Xia family, she began to worry again.
"Qiqi, are we going to send some dumplings over there? Your second uncle was injured, and there are a lot of dumpling fillings, maybe you can still ...... I can still nourish my body! ”
"Mother, you're guilty again! As I said, our family is so poor that we can't open the pot, there is no vegetable oil, except for a little salt, our family can only eat brown rice that others don't eat.
Our family is so poor, who will pity our family? Besides, my second uncle is a son, my grandmother has always been patriarchal, she will definitely not watch my second uncle suffer, you put your heart in your stomach, and when your father comes back, we will eat dumplings! ”
Xia Qiqi said with a smile.
Yu Guixiang stopped talking, but she was still a thief, looking at the door from time to time, for fear that someone would find trouble for her at this time!
Xia Qiqi saw it in his eyes, and he didn't say any comforting words!
But there was one thing she knew.
The people of the Lao Xia family didn't come to trouble her so quickly!
If she goes down with a stick, Xia Duoshou's eggs will be broken if they are not broken, at least, the medical expenses are indispensable.
At such an important time, it is strange that the old woman can take the time to come out and find trouble in the fourth room!
The dumplings were finally cooked, and Xia Qiqi fished them out one by one.
A total of five bowls were fished, and the two younger sisters and her bowl were six dumplings per person.
Xia Duofu is eight, Yu Guixiang is nine, and the one with more is for the doll in Yu Guixiang's belly.
Xia Qiqi distributed the dumplings, and went to the next room to call Xia Xiaohua and Xia Xiaoduo, and it happened that at this time, Xia Duofu came back.
He was wearing the old clothes that Yu Guixiang had sewn for him recently, and he looked a lot cleaner.
It's the red bloodshot in the eyes, which looks very tired.
Maybe it's this day, what kind of work have you done!
Although Xia Duofu went to work as a carpenter, he would also do it if the master's family had other jobs.
Again, I helped others carry the dung of a manure tank, and when I came back, my shoulder was almost broken.
But the next day, I still had to go out to work.
In terms of hard work, Xia Duofu is really hard.
It's just a pity, Ma Bao is too serious, and the favorite girl has become a demon!
In modern times, Xia Duofu's husband is the most disgusting, even more disgusting than a phoenix man!
However, no matter what, it's also the father of this body.
This body, from beginning to end, has never hated this father, and Xia Qiqi, as an outsider, can't be resentful!
She must bring Xia Duofu to the right path!
"Dad, you wash your hands first, I'll call Hua'er and Duo'er to eat!"
Xia Qiqi deliberately mixed the hot water that had boiled dumplings with some cold water for Xia Duofu to wash his hands, so that people who had been frozen for a day would not feel so cold!
Xia Duofu glanced at the dumplings on the dinner table, and his saliva flowed down all of a sudden.
"Ah Xiang, our family...... Where do we get our dumplings? Did my mother send it? Xia Duofu opened his mouth and it was Mrs. Xia.
Yu Guixiang shook her head, "No, our daughter went to the town today to sell sugar gourds, exchanged some money, and bought three catties of flour and one catty of meat!" ”
"What, three...... Three pounds of flour???? Shadorf was stunned.
That's a dozen dollars!
He did a day's work, and it was only 12 cents.
"Yes! Girls can make money, let's use it! Yu Guixiang said.
Xia Duofu stopped talking.
But his eyes were still staring at the bowls of dumplings on the table.
Yu Guixiang heard the sound of her man swallowing saliva, and sighed secretly, "Eat!" ”
"I'll wait for them!" Chardofo said the hard way.
As soon as the words fell, Xia Qiqi, Xia Xiaohua and Xia Xiaoduo rushed in, the two little girls were full of energy, and as soon as they entered the house, they called their parents.
Then, like Xia Duofu's reaction, he stared at the dumplings on the table.
"Eat, flowers, flowers, it's yours!" Yu Guixiang handed the bowl to the two little girls.
"Qiqi, it's yours!" Yu Guixiang handed the bowl to Xia Qiqi again.
With just one glance, Xia Qiqi knew that there were two more dumplings in his bowl, and there were just two less in Yu Guixiang's bowl!
