Chapter 91: Chinese New Year's Eve Dumplings

When Xu Wenlan and Bai Shengwu turned out of their house, they happened to see Bai Cao'er and Bai Daidi coming out of the stove room, bumping into each other head-on, their eyes were paired, and several people laughed.

Covering her mouth, she pointed to the White Lotus House with her brother's hand, Xu Wenlan didn't dare to laugh anymore, tiptoed over, and vaguely heard the White Lotus in the room crying and begging: "Mother, I didn't mean to do it - I didn't think about it at all, aren't you good enough for the eldest brother?" How can these people be so unconscionable and deliberately arrange you like this! ”

Raising her eyebrows, Xu Wenlan snorted coldly in her heart.

If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do.

Everyone knows how the stepmother of the Li family is doing, and even the Li family himself feels weak-hearted, right? Only White Lotus never felt that there was anything wrong with her mother.

However, the mother and daughter are of the same heart, the White Lotus thinks that the Li family is good, and the Li family also thinks that his daughter is good, although the White Lotus was inadvertently stabbed in the center just now, but at this time she is still comforting her: "Mother knows that you are unintentional, you stupid girl!" The heart is too real, people have set up a pit for you, and you haven't seen it yet. Now there is a mother at home who can protect you, if you go outside, you must not let those wolves eat it raw! ”

"Niang ......" seemed to be shaking Li's arm coquettishly, and the white lotus said coquettishly: "What is outside? People didn't say they wanted to get married, so they stayed at home with you and my father for a lifetime, and I was not afraid of anyone with my mother's protection. ”

"This girl, I said that you are going to marry outside?" Li laughed and coaxed her again: "Alas, our baby girl is married, and my mother has to pick the best one......

"Mother......" White Lotus screamed in shame, and she didn't know what Li said again, and the two laughed together.

With a pair of eyes, Brother Bai and Xu Wenlan cautiously turned into the main room.

The Li family is selfish and petty, and he is so mean to the sons and daughters-in-law left by his predecessor that people hate him, but he has the advantage that he is really a loving mother among mothers to his children.

Not to mention Bai Yingtian, who was sent to the county private school to study and was pinned on high hopes, even the White Lotus, who stayed at home and always caused trouble, she was pampered in every way and even to the point of doting, even if the White Lotus made her lose face in front of so many people just now, she still didn't even have half a word of reproach.

A mother's heart can be seen, but a loving mother is not necessarily a good mother - otherwise, there would not be the saying that a loving mother is a child.

When Wang and Fang brought the awakened noodles and dumpling fillings into the main room, Li also brought the white lotus into the house.

This Chinese New Year's Eve dumpling, Chinese New Year's Eve, there are unwritten rules in the old Bai family, this dumpling, must be wrapped by the whole family, a large family of more than a dozen, where can so many people be used?

But what Old Man Bai wants is such an atmosphere, the whole family, young and old, sitting together, doing the same thing, no matter how you think about it, it is a beautiful thing.

Even the old man himself is very good at eating, and he is really not good at making other food, but he is very good at rolling dumpling skins.

"When I was a child, my mother had a bag of dumplings, I just sat in front of me and watched, counting over and over again, calculating how many people could eat, and when the dumplings boiled, one by one the white and fat dumplings floated up, just like a small ingot, I held the bowl, guarded the pot, and waited for the dumplings to be divided......"

Holding a rolling pin and rolling the skin, the old man Bai did not forget to talk about the ancients, this paragraph has obviously been heard countless times, but it is still very popular and laughing.

Bai Shengwu also deliberately asked: "Master, how many can we eat at that time?" ”

was teased by Bai Shengwu, and the old man Bai was happy: "Whatever, eat as much as you want, you can eat as much as you want......"

Bai Shengwu puffed out his belly: "Ah, the little belly is going to break......"

The childish words made the old man Bai laugh: "You guys, but you were born in a good time." When grandpa was a child, how could there be such a good time! ”

He didn't roll the dumpling skin anymore, and handed the rolling pin to Bai Yinglu, he hugged Bai Shengwu and turned to the side to speak: "Grandpa, it's only eighteen, there is a catastrophe in my hometown, my father and mother are starving to death, so my grandfather is alone, pulling a little sister, following the neighbor's buttocks, and I came all the way to Heilongjiang by asking for food." At that time, if it weren't for the fact that Kannai couldn't get by, who would run outside the Kannai to live? Unexpectedly, this time I will stand here, my family will be here, my children will be born, and I will take root here for most of my life......"

Leaning in front of the table, Xu Wenlan, who followed the dumpling maker, turned his head and asked Brother Bai in a low voice: "Didn't our family live outside the Guanwai?" Where did you get it from? ”

"Shandong! You didn't listen to what our master said, sometimes it has a bit of Shandong flavor! Brother Bai replied in a low voice: "Our master, I always wanted to go back to Shandong before!" He also said that our aunt and grandmother have married back to Shandong, and we have to go back to Shandong to see our hometown and aunt and grandmother. ”

Speaking of this, she glanced at the Li mother and daughter at the other table, and her voice was even lowered: "You don't know, our aunt likes our grandmother, and it has been more than ten years since my grandmother was married, and she hasn't been back to her parents' house once." ”

Oh, and such a relative, such a grudge! It is no wonder that many families in this backing mountain tun are relatives, but the Bai family is the only one, and there are no relatives in this tunzi.

Xu Wenlan pursed the corners of her mouth and lowered her head to make dumplings.

The dumplings of the Chinese New Year's Eve should be auspicious, and they should not eat the sauerkraut filling that they usually eat, but they should wrap celery meat filling, which means that they are diligent all year round; There is also leek filling, which lasts for a long time.

Just these two kinds of stuffing, but there are a lot of wraps, not only for tonight's stuffing, but also for tomorrow morning.

Isn't there a saying that the first dumpling and the first two sides of the first day of the new year, you have to eat dumplings early tomorrow morning and have good luck.

But generally speaking, the first day of the new year is to go to the elders to pay New Year's greetings to the household, and I can't catch up with the bag early in the morning, so I will wrap it out tomorrow morning today, and I have to cook it in the morning.

In order to please an auspicious person, the thirty dumplings are wrapped with copper plates, specially washed, wrapped according to the head, and specially marked, and when the dumplings are cooked and the dumplings are served, one must be fished out in a bowl.

When the children got a "cluck" sound, they immediately screamed happily, but the adults knew it, just laughed and begged for a prize.

After eating the dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve, it was really like what Bai Shengwu said, and the stomachs were round.

I eat two meals in a winter, how can I eat one meal at night like today, but I really don't feel sleepy.

It was probably noon, and I vaguely heard one or two distant bells, and I heard that it was a bell from the Jinguang Temple in the county.

After the bell, there was the sound of "crackling" firecrackers, which was louder and more urgent than the one just now, and the family stood in the courtyard, just not letting go, just listening to the sound was already deafening, let alone putting it down.

Brilliant fireworks are all over the sky, and a year has passed.

A slight chill was on his cheeks, and he raised his head to know that it was snowing.

"Good signs! Ruixue Mega Yearβ€”"

The coming year is bound to be a good one......
