Chapter 61: Ice Chisel
"Let's go! Let's go back." Liu Yiyu was a little excited when he thought that this was feasible, and he couldn't wait to try his own ideas.
"Mother, we're back". Liu Yiyu's sister and brother shouted after putting the firewood outside the bamboo house.
"Rice, my mother will make it right away, you go to the cave to warm up."
"Third sister, fifth brother, the two of you go in first, don't get close to grandma first, so as not to give the cold on your body to grandma."
"Well, I know the eldest sister."
"Mother, what did you cook today?" Liu Yiyu walked into the kitchen and asked Liu Li.
"Eldest sister, today is my fried dish, I fried a bamboo shoot and fried smoked pork intestine, sour shredded potatoes, and cut a stack of capers." The second sister Liu Yisa smiled gently and said to Liu Yiyu.
"Mother, I'll make baked cakes today! You go in first and rest."
"Cheng, my mother went in first." Liu Li said as he washed his hands and handed over the kitchen to the eldest sister and sister.
After Liu Yiyu waited for Liu Li to leave, he first took out three eggs from the basket of eggs hanging on the wall in the kitchen, broke them, stirred them, and then went to the black noodles that Liu Li had reconciled before, Liu Yiyu thought about it, took out the sugar jar again, spooned a few spoonfuls of white sugar into it, stirred for a minute, and after seeing that things were almost ready, he ordered the second sister to light the fire.
However, when the second sister saw her eldest sister making a cake and put three eggs and a few spoonfuls of sugar in it, she felt a little distressed about these eggs and sugar, and the second sister's lips moved, after all, there were some words that were not spoken.
Liu Yiyu first brushed a thin layer of oil on the bottom of the pot, poured the flour water mixed into the black noodles on the bottom of the pot, and rotated it evenly back and forth until the flour water was formed, branded into a golden brown, and exuded a sweet fragrance, and then burned on the other side.
Liu Yiyu branded more than 20 sheets, and after baking the noodles that Liu Li was preparing to mix, Liu Yiyu instructed his second sister, "Second sister, you take out a cake, will it be useful for the eldest sister later?"
The table has been set up in the cave of the Liu family, and the three sisters and brothers of the sixth sister Liu Yimeng will come back for dinner.
After waiting for a cup of tea, after seeing that the sixth sister and they have not come back, according to the past time, they will come back, Xun'er got up and said, "Grandma, mother, I'll call the sixth sister and they come back for dinner."
Before Xun'er got up to look for someone, the sound of Liu Yimeng's sister and brother laughing came from the bamboo house.
"Grandma, mother, let's go to the kitchen to warm up first, so as not to give grandma the cold later." Liu Yimeng shouted outside.
"Cheng, it's warm, hurry in and eat." Liu Li said in the cave.
After Liu Yimeng's third sister went to the kitchen to warm up, she came into the cave, and saw that the family was waiting for the three of them to eat in the cave.
It's just that after Liu Yimeng took a bite of the cake, her eyes lit up, and she raised her head and said, "Why are today's cakes so sweet and soft, so delicious?" Grandma, mother, you all eat".
"Of course this cake is delicious? The eldest sister put three eggs and a few spoonfuls of sugar in this black flour cake, and of course it was delicious." Liu Yisa said.
"It's so delicious, then I'm going to eat one more piece." Liu Yimeng's mouth was bulging, and he didn't even eat the dishes, and he said a little vaguely.
"You snacker, slow down, my mother won't let you eat it." Although there were three eggs and sugar in this cake, it made Liu Li feel a little distressed, but seeing that the children were eating happily and happily, he felt that it was not a big deal, and he felt that it was all worth it.
"If you like to eat, the eldest sister will make cakes tomorrow, and after eating, if you want to go out to play, be careful, take your fifth brother out to play, and don't worry about embroidering samples for a long time, and if you hurt your eyes for a long time, there are also two mothers and second sisters."
"Eldest sister, don't worry, the ice on the surface of the river is thick? It's a foot thick, and we won't fall into the river." Liu Yimeng thought that her eldest sister was worried about this, so Liu Yimeng patted her chest and reassured.
"Well, next time I go out to play, come back early, don't delay my meal any longer."
"Uh-huh". Liu Yimeng ate the cake in his mouth and nodded violently in reassurance.
"Mother, how do you sell fish now?" Liu Yiyu took a chopstick of capers, took a bite of the cake, and asked Liu Li a little casually.
"What's wrong with the eldest sister, I want to eat fish, now the fish are precious, the lake is frozen, the fish can't be caught, the fish in the summer are cheap, and the fish in the winter are sold at a price comparable to the price of meat? Fish in winter is a rarity, and only large families can afford to eat it. ”。
"My daughter didn't want to eat fish either, she just asked casually." After Liu Yiyu heard Liu Li's words, he immediately felt happy in his heart, and he would go to the lake to dig ice and see if he could catch fish.
After the Liu family finished the meal in the morning, the family took a nap in the cave, and after Liu Yimeng's sister and brother slept until about two o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Yimeng's three little ones couldn't wait to get up, and by the way, Liu Yimeng pulled Liu Yihao and Xun'er out.
After Liu Yiyu saw Liu Yimeng go out to play, he took Liu Yishuang to find a reason to go out of the cave, and brought out the hoe, barrel, needle and thread and the cake he had prepared from home, Liu Yiyu took Liu Yishuang down the mountain.
"Everyone, where are we going, what are we doing with hoes and barrels?" After Liu Yishuang saw that he was leading himself down the mountain with a hoe, Liu Yishuang asked Liu Yiyu with some puzzlement.
"The eldest sister will take you fishing".
"Fishing, now that the river is frozen, what are we fishing? Can't you catch this? ”。
"The eldest sister has a way, but she hasn't tried it, and I don't know if this method will work, let's find the lake at the junction of the Goryeo Kingdom, try him, and see how the effect is?"
"Uh-huh". After Liu Yishuang heard that his eldest sister had a way to catch fish, he thought about what his mother said at dinner before, the price of fish in winter is comparable to the price of meat? Now this fish is a rare thing, only big families can afford to eat it, as for Liu Yiyu's later sentence, it was directly ignored by Liu Yishuang.
The two of them went all the way down the mountain and came to a remote place, where no one came, Liu Yiyu stood on the ice and stepped on the ice hard.
After seeing that there was no movement on the ice surface and there were no cracks, Liu Yiyu made a gesture on the corner of the ice surface, intending to chisel out an ice hole the size of a basin on the ice.
Immediately, after Liu Yiyu had a plan, he asked Liu Yishuang to stand farther away, picked up the hoe in his hand and made a gesture, and knocked it hard to the place he had drawn.
