Chapter 28: Birthday
Sheng Rong sat and pounded his shoulder, his shoulder hurt a little, but he was embarrassed to say it, he moved for a while, and when he felt almost done, he stood up and moved his body.
Sun Hui seemed to have fallen asleep, and let out some snoring sounds, Chen Mohua stared into the distance on the side, and Sheng Rong went over to continue to punch holes.
Sun Hui has been very tired from preparing the things for marriage recently, and Sheng Rong thought that he could try to punch holes, so that they would wake up more relaxed.
As for Chen Mohua, Sheng Rong didn't know why, he always felt that Chen Mohua was very hostile to him, so he didn't want to deal with Chen Mohua, the relationship between the two was not very good, and they nodded and basically didn't talk.
He single-handedly made all the holes in the remaining four or five wooden boards, and it happened that Chen Mofan came back with food. They woke Sun Hui up, ate these simple meals together, and began to officially build a house after eating.
The main forces are Chen Mofan and Sun Hui, Sun Hui's grandfather is a carpenter, he himself is more or less a little bit better, Chen Mofan often helps, and there will be a lot.
They first set up a ladder, and then pulled a rope to use as a tool to transport timber, Chen Mofan and Sun Hui climbed up, and Chen Mohua and Sheng Rong handed things underneath.
There is basically nothing to do with Sheng Rong, he just needs to stand under the rope and tie the materials that Chen Mohua moved over to the rope, and then pull it up and hand it to Sun Hui, and Sun Hui will take it over and work with Chen Mofan to make it right.
They set up a shape and went back, and when they got up the next day, Sheng Rong felt that his whole body was sore and weak.
He stood at the window and looked out, Jiang Yuanyuan has been visiting her grandmother's relatives these days, and she went out early and came back late every day, and basically couldn't see any people.
When I went today, there were only Chen Mofan and him, Chen Mohua went to visit relatives, and Sun Hui went to the town to prepare things for relatives.
There were only two people who were obviously much slower, Sheng Rong handed over the materials below, Chen Mofan built on it, and did it for a day, just getting all the frames and fixed substrates right, looking at the small tree house that gradually took shape, Sheng Rong was a little excited.
In the next few days, there are often people who are not there, but Chen Mofan is there most of the time, and Sun Hui will definitely be there when Chen Mofan is not there, otherwise, Sheng Rong and Chen Mohua will basically not be able to do anything.
The house was finally completed on the eighth day of the new year, and it was relatively hurried to get out, but fortunately, everything went well, and the small tree houses that were scattered were liked by looking at it.
When they were packing up their tools, Sheng Rong found some wooden planks on the ground, these were waste materials, which were discarded here at random, looking at these wooden planks, Sheng Rong had an idea in his heart, he took the planks and quietly made a swing after they were all gone.
I made the swing by myself, tied it up, sat on it and tried it many times, and I was sure that it would never turn over, so Sheng Rong left.
…………
Jiang Yuanyuan got up early, today is her birthday, and she has been looking forward to it excitedly since yesterday.
"Daddy! Mother! Jiang Yuanyuan rushed to the kitchen, Jiang's mother was cooking longevity noodles for her and her brother, and Jiang's father was chatting with Jiang's mother on the side.
"Yuanyuan! I'm a year older! Jiang's mother put down the work in her hand and walked over to hug her daughter, "Adulthood!" It's getting more and more beautiful. ”
"Thank you, mother!" Jiang Yuanyuan smiled sweetly and buried it in Jiang's mother.
"Go and call your brother to get up, why hasn't he gotten up yet." Father Jiang said on the side.
"Great!" Jiang Yuanyuan nodded, and secretly took a handful of peanuts to eat before leaving.
Walking to Jiang Xuan's room, Jiang Yuanyuan pushed the door, there was no lock, she broke in with a big grin, threw herself on the bed, and looked at Jiang Xuan with a wink.
"Brother!" Jiang Yuanyuan shouted, Jiang Xuan didn't move at all, Jiang Yuanyuan ate the peanuts, clapped her hands, smiled and stretched out her hand to pinch Jiang Xuan's nose, watching Jiang Xuan's breathing become more and more rapid, and suddenly opened her eyes and opened her mouth to breathe.
"Whew!" Jiang Xuan looked at Jiang Yuanyuan in shock, "What are you doing!?" ”
"Brother! Happy birthday. We're adults! Jiang Yuanyuan hugged Jiang Xuan's palm, hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled.
Jiang Xuan was stunned for about seven or eight seconds, and then he realized that it was dawn, he looked sleepy, and pinched Jiang Yuanyuan's face dimly, he used to be able to grab a big lump of meat, but now he grabbed it is skin.
"Happy birthday, little villain." Withdrawing his hand and stretching his waist, Jiang Xuan pulled the quilt again and prepared to squint again, "You go out, I'm going to sleep." ”
"What are you sleeping! Get up and eat noodles, Dad told me to call you to get up! Jiang Yuanyuan sat up and took out a milk candy from her sleeve. This milk candy was still wrapped in candy wrapper, and Jiang Yuanyuan fed one to Jiang Xuan.
"You can keep this for yourself." Jiang Xuan sat up with a mutter, this milk candy is very expensive, this is the least kind of candy that Jiang's mother bought during the Chinese New Year, and she kept it for her own food.
"Let's eat together!" Jiang Yuanyuan shouted candy and squinted happily, "Hmm, it's delicious." ”
The mouthful of milk and the rich taste seem to be poured into the brain at once, and sweets make people feel happy and satisfied.
"It's time to get up." Jiang Yuanyuan decided to ignore her brother, she was going to wait for longevity noodles first.
"Walk slowly, be careful with your legs!" Looking at the back of Xiao Nizi leaving in a hurry, Jiang Xuan sat up helplessly and rubbed his hair and sighed lowly.
The longevity noodles cooked by Jiang's mother are different every year, and the ingredients are all varied, anyway, Jiang Yuanyuan has not eaten longevity noodles with repeated ingredients for so many years.
Excitedly came to the kitchen, stood in front of the pot and sniffed, one pot smelled of marinade, and the other pot smelled of corn? What a new trick this year, and corn.
"Can't wait?" Jiang's father walked in with his hands behind his back, he held a large bowl specially used to hold longevity noodles every year, this big bowl is the size of a basin, but not very deep, Jiang's mother will wrap the noodles around this plate every year, and then spread various materials on it, splash scallion oil, sprinkle green onions, beautiful and delicious.
"It's so fragrant, is it braised pork this year?" Jiang Yuanyuan looked over, and her eyes were surprised.
"You! Just look at it and you'll know. Father Jiang put the two bowls away, he opened the pot where Jiang Yuanyuan felt that there was corn, and after the thick mist, there was no corn in it, only noodles.
"Yay? No corn? Yes! I see, the noodles are made with cornmeal, right!! ”
Father Jiang smiled and didn't speak, scooped up all the noodles and put them in cold water.
I grabbed a noodle with chopsticks, took the bowl to the water's edge, turned the chopsticks in the plate, pulled the noodles up, and slowly formed a circle.
One noodle was gone, almost covering the entire plate, Father Jiang took another plate and rolled the other noodle into it, and the two bowls of noodles were rolled up and neatly stacked on the plate.
Father Jiang winked at Jiang Yuanyuan, Jiang Yuanyuan leaned over expectantly to look, and Father Jiang opened the lid of the other pot.
Sure enough, as Jiang Yuanyuan expected, there were all kinds of braised meat, Jiang's father fished out two eggs, cut them evenly, one egg in a bowl, and fished out the big chicken leg from the pot, and the big chicken leg was directly placed in the bowl, and then the bamboo shoots and braised meat were fished out.
"Wow, so much meat!" Jiang Yuanyuan was stunned, this year's noodles have a lot more meat than previous years' noodles, and the meat is slowly placed in the bowl, which makes people like it.
Jiang's father took out the scalded vegetables on the side and put them in the bowl, and put a lot of coriander and green onions into it, piled up a full plate, and finally poured some brine mixed with boiled water into it, looking at the two bowls of noodles with color and fragrance, Jiang Yuanyuan took a deep breath.
Boil some scallion oil and splash it on the noodles, and the green onions and coriander covered on it were scalded and softened, but it unexpectedly induced the fragrance, causing the mouth to flow out.
