Today's breakfast is sold much faster than before, Cai Xiaoxiao and the four of them closed the stall early, after going home, Zhao Wang's was feeding the chickens, and they were a little surprised to see them coming back earlier than before, Cai Xiaoxiao explained with a smile, and then asked Zhao Wang's donkey if it was fed, Zhao Wang's said that it was not, Cai Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli raised their hands to say that they were going to feed the donkey:

"I'll come, I'll come, donkey, let's feed!"

Cai Xiaoxiao's three adults all laughed, and Cai Xiaoxiao said, "Then please leave it to you." ”

Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli said in unison: "Yes! The two of them jumped up and down to feed the donkeys.

Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Wang: "Mother-in-law, have you taken the medicine?" ”

Zhao Wang shook his head: "Not yet." ”

Cai Xiaoxiao said: "Then I'll boil medicine for you." Saying that, he walked into the kitchen, boiled Zhao Wang's medicine, and cooked a bowl of wontons for Zhao Wang's at the same time, Zhao Kangcheng smelled the fragrance and walked in and said that he also wanted a bowl, Cai Xiaoxiao thought about it, and asked him to ask Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli if they wanted to have a bowl too? Zhao Kangcheng asked and brought a positive answer, so Cai Xiaoxiao simply cooked five servings.

After eating the wontons, Cai Xiaoxiao put away the dishes and chopsticks and prepared to make vegetable buns, and she planned to make crab and pumpkin buns first.

First, she takes a pumpkin, peels and washes it, then takes the seedless part and cuts it into slices - the excess pumpkin can be used to make pumpkin soup, then puts it in a steamer and lets it steam the pumpkin until it is soft, and when the pumpkin is steamed, she puts the pumpkin in a mortar to puree it and let it cool naturally.

Then take an appropriate amount of flour, put the cooled pumpkin puree and koji into the flour, add warm water in batches, stir it with chopsticks to form a dough and knead it into a smooth dough.

Because there is no safety film, after kneading the dough, the dough can only be covered with an airtight cloth, and at the same time put the dough into a sealed jar, after which it needs to wait for it to ferment to twice the size, which takes about an hour, during which the medicine is boiled, and she puts it in the middle of the bowl and serves it to Zhao Wang.

Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli have been silently watching Cai Xiaoxiao's operation, and when they saw Cai Xiaoxiao wrapping the dough and putting it in the jar, there was no action, so Zhao Kangqiang asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, is this okay?" ”

"Of course not, you have to wait an hour." Cai Xiaoxiao said.

"Will it be all right in that hour?" Zhao Xiaoli also asked.

Cai Xiaoxiao shook his head: "Of course not, there is still the following process." ”

"Ah...... It's going to take so long......" The two were disappointed.

Cai Xiaoxiao felt funny, and said angrily: "If you two are idle and have nothing to do, go and review the textbook." ”

"Don't want it!" Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli immediately shook their heads and said, "It's hard to take a day off, how can you deal with books again, it's so sad!" Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh when she heard the righteous words spoken by the two: Sure enough, no matter ancient or modern, the children who hate to read on their days off are too similar.

Zhao Kangcheng happened to come in, and when he heard the words of Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli, he couldn't help but knock on the head of the two of them: "Since it's so sad, it's okay not to go to the school in the future?" ”

"Big brother!" Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli covered their heads, looked up and saw that it was Zhao Kangcheng, and hurriedly shouted, and then Zhao Kangqiang defended, "Big brother, what we are talking about is that rest days should naturally be used for rest, how can they continue to be used for studying?" Isn't that the same as the days in the academy? This is also contrary to the gentleman's intention to let us rest, which is not right. ”

"Humph!" Zhao Kangcheng snorted coldly, indicating that he did not accept his statement.

Zhao Xiaoli hurriedly answered: "Of course, we naturally have to study the day we go to the school, and we must be worthy of Mr.'s kindness to our education, right, big brother?" ”

"It's the so-called rest and study." Cai Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and silently interjected on the side.

When Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli heard this, they hurriedly said to Cai Xiaoxiao: "Those who know me, my sister-in-law is also!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Cai Xiaoxiao laughed, "It's so funny for you two." ”

Zhao Kangcheng looked at the three of them saying a word, shook his head helplessly, and said to Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli: "You two are quite eloquent. ”

Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment." "Typical climb up the pole. Cai Xiaoxiao smiled from ear to ear.

When Zhao Kangcheng saw it, he walked over helplessly, patted Cai Xiaoxiao's back for fear that she would laugh for a while, and said, "Don't laugh, where is your vegetable bag?" ”

Cai Xiaoxiao pointed to the sealed jar and said, "It's in the pot." ”

Zhao Kangcheng: "It's already?" ”

Cai Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No, I have to wait for an hour or so." ”

An hour later, Cai Xiaoxiao takes the fermented dough out of the jar, then sprinkles an appropriate amount of flour on the cutting board, kneades the dough well, and then divides the dough into evenly sized agents, and then takes one of the agents and kneads it evenly and rolls it out into a cow's tongue shape to make the shell of the small crab.

Take another agent and divide it into quarters and knead it into long strips to make the legs of small crabs, then put the legs on the dough cake, fold the two ends of the dough cake up and down respectively, wrap the crab legs, and then turn the crab over, pose the shape, and then decorate with red beans to make eyes, and then a crab looks like it comes out.

Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli saw each other and said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, is this a crab?" ”

"Hmmm! Is it good-looking? Cai Xiaoxiao continued to do the second one, and asked by the way.

"Beautiful!" The two nodded, "But, sister-in-law, didn't you say you wanted to make vegetable buns?" Zhao Xiaoli asked.

Cai Xiaoxiao said: "Yes, this is it, don't look like a crab, but the material is pumpkin." ”

One dough can make about three crab buns, Cai Xiaoxiao continued to ferment these three crab buns for about a moment, and then she looked at the time and found that it was already noon, so she began to wash rice and cook rice, and by the way, asked the three people in the kitchen: "What do you want to eat at noon?" ”

"Meat!" The three of them replied in tacit understanding.

Cai Xiaoxiao thought for a while: Meat? There is pork bought yesterday at home, which can be used to make pork stir-fried cabbage with cabbage, in fact, she wants to make pork stewed vermicelli, but unfortunately, there are no vermicelli in this world, and if you want to make vermicelli, you need special machinery, and that is even more not.

Forget it, you can't think about it anymore, you will be hungry if you think about it again.

In addition to pork, she also has pork bones left over from the wild boar last time, which can be used to boil the leftover pumpkin into soup and stir-fry two vegetables.

During the cooking, the crab buns have already been fermented, and after cooking and vacating a stove pot, Cai Xiaoxiao put an appropriate amount of cold water into it, put the steamer on it, and then put the crab buns on it, cover the pot, and then wait for the steaming to be done.
