009 Delicious dumplings
Lin Wan picked up the cloth bag again, poured the bought pound of flour into the yellow porcelain basin, scooped out some cornmeal from the noodle bag, mixed it with the fine white noodles she bought, added water and formed a dough and set it aside to wake up, and then began to wash the meat, she bought pork belly, which was relatively fat, cut off half of the fat meat, put it in the pot and fry the oil, put it in a bowl, condensed it into an oil block, and kept it for stir-frying.
When Lin Yun was squeezing oil, Tang Xiaocao came back from school with Tang Xiaoye and Tang Dajian, and as soon as he entered the yard, he smelled a smell of meat, which was mouth-watering, Tang Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Sister, what are you doing?" How fragrant? ”
"Incense, you go wash your hands first, and there will be something good for you to eat in a while."
Tang Xiaoye: "Eldest sister, do you have meat to eat tonight?" ”
"Hmm." Lin Wan looked at the firewood in the stove while holding a spatula to press the fat strips in the pot.
As soon as he heard that there was meat to eat, Tang Dajian's saliva was about to flow out, needless to say, he ran to wash his hands first.
When Tang Xiaocao came in, his face was not good, and when he saw that there was meat and flour in the pot house, his face was extremely unhappy, so he turned his head and entered the hall.
This firewood stove is not like a modern gas stove or induction cooker, the size of the fire can be controlled arbitrarily, Lin Wan didn't dare to be distracted for a moment, if the fire was accidentally big, the oil couldn't come out and it was easy to burn, and he didn't notice Tang Xiaocao's expression for a while.
There was a round stone table in the courtyard, Tang Xiaoye and Tang Dajian had already sat obediently and waited after washing their hands, Lin Wan put the grease residue into a small bowl, and pinched two pieces while it was hot and stuffed them into Tang Xiaoye and Tang Dajian's mouths respectively.
Crispy and delicious, melts in your mouth.
"It's delicious, it's delicious, sister, it's so delicious." Tang Xiaoye shouted happily.
After Tang Dajian finished eating a piece, he didn't speak, staring straight at Lin Yun with big eyes, Lin Yun smiled: "Delicious?" Still want to eat? ”
Tang Dajian nodded desperately like pounding garlic, Lin Wan turned around and went back to the pot house and took two more pieces to him, and asked, "Xiaoye, where is Xiaocao?" Why don't you come out to eat? ”
Tang Xiaoye had grease residue in his mouth before he could answer, Tang Xiaocao had already come out of the hall, Lin Yun directly took a piece to Tang Xiaocao, although Tang Xiaocao looked reluctant, but in the end he was a child, he didn't eat meat for a long time, and at this moment, he suddenly saw such a fragrant grease residue, and he was also greedy, and he didn't refuse.
Lin Wan couldn't help but ask, "Xiaocao, what's wrong with you?" Do you have any problems with your studies, do you want me to help? ”
Tang Xiaocao: "No, I'm studying well, I don't need your help." ”
The little girl's temper is quite stubborn, she doesn't want to say it, forget it, Lin Yun was about to go to dinner, and as soon as she turned her back, she heard Tang Xiaocao behind her say: "Sister, you have Brother Gazi, why do you still want to accept Li Yaohui's things?" ”
Lin Wan was stunned: "Li Yaohui's things? What do you say, I bought it with my own money. ”
"Really?" Tang Xiaocao didn't believe it.
Lin Yun: "Of course! ”
"Sister, if it's true, I apologize to you."
Lin Yun knew that Tang Xiaoyu had not received anything from Li Yaohui in the past, so it was no wonder that Tang Xiaocao directly drew conclusions without asking clearly.
Lin Yun smiled: "No need to apologize, I don't blame you, Li Yaohui and I will not have anything to do with it from now on." ”
Tang Xiaocao's eyes instantly smiled when she heard this, "This is my good sister." ”
……
In the evening, Tang Fugui, Shen Xia and Zhang Gazi came back from work, and Lin Yun's dumplings also followed.
In the basket are the wild vegetables that Shen Xia dug up in the morning, Lin Wan washed and mixed them with the stomped pork belly, put the green onions, ginger salt and soy sauce, and added the grease residue, the fragrance of the wild vegetables matched with the meat aroma of the pork belly, the whole room was full of that delicious fragrance, which was very attractive.
Before Tang Fugui, Shen Xia and Zhang Gazi's eyes popped out, Lin Yun roughly told him about going to the town today.
Everyone acted as if they had never known her.
Is this person still their eldest daughter, Tang Xiaoyu? Why did you never know that she still had the craft of a cook?!
Tang Fugui was the first to calm down, "The wheat harvest will start tomorrow, eat early and rest early." ”
Wheat harvest is a major event of the year, wheat harvest is also the busiest time of the year, the endless wheat fields are golden, pregnant with the hope of the common people for a year, the labor and women who can be dispatched at home are all on the battlefield, wielding sickles, cutting wheat, spreading grass waists, tying wheat heads, and then pulling into the field, stacking into stacks of stacks, and waiting until the field is harvested, and then it is the turn to play the field, the mule is put on the stone stone and rolled round and round, rolled over and over, and then then raised the field, combined with the stacks, a wheat season down, it takes at least fifteen to twenty days, When the wheat was received in the family's barn, the skin was also shed.
Therefore, the wheat harvest is tantamount to a tough battle, so it is natural to reserve physical strength.
Zhang Gazi and Shen Xia also put away their chins when they heard this, and sat down to eat.
The meat filling is rich and crispy, the juice is delicious, it melts in the mouth, the corners of the lips are fragrant, the throat is happy, it is delicious but dumplings, and it is a pleasure to eat a meal, until Lin Yun is lying in the east wing of the old mansion, she is still reminiscing, and today is like a dream.
She died, turned into a ghost.
She lived and became an eighteen-year-old Tang Xiaoyu.
She spent a day proving that she has the ability to make money in this era and place.
……
Lin Wan has never had such a sense of accomplishment, these are all things she has done, although the money is pitifully insignificant, but it is enough for her to have the confidence to face the next thing and change Tang Xiaoyu's own fate.
Now that she has become Tang Xiaoyu, she must be kind to her loved ones.
As for Zhang Gazi, she was going to find a way to let him take the initiative to leave, and then retreated her relatives.
After dinner, Lin Yun specially begged Shen Xia not to go back to the new house to sleep during the wheat harvest, and let Zhang Gazi go back alone.
Tired for a day, a meal of dumplings to eat fairy, Zhang Gazi on the garlic cloves dipped in vinegar, smash the mouth, it is very aftertaste, under the kerosene lamp, the dim light and shadow reflect the daughter-in-law on the side of the eyes and teeth, falling generous.
What kind of blessing did he Zhang Gazi accumulate in his previous life, and he asked for such a capable and sharp and beautiful daughter-in-law.
At the dinner table, Zhang Gazi couldn't help but approach Lin Yun to smell the smell on her body, Lin Yun happened to get up, "Grandma, my aunt has something for me to bring to you, and we will talk to each other in the evening." ”
Shen Xia glanced at Lin Yun, "Cheng, Gazi, you must be tired tomorrow, you go back early to rest." ”
"I ......"
"What's the matter, I just got married, and I can't say anything to my daughter? A bear thing, I'm used to seeing you, wait until the wheat harvest is over and then go back, that's it! ”
Pretty!
Lin Wan secretly applauded Shen Xia.
Zhang Gazi twisted a pair of white-soled gangster cloth shoes on the ground for a long time, and he didn't dare to say a word.
A man went back with his head drooping.
At this time, in the east wing, in the room where Tang Xiaoyu lived before marriage, Shen Xia was interrogating Lin Yun.
"Nannan, to be honest, are you going to see Li Yaohui again?"
Lin Wan smiled, feeling that Shen Xia didn't believe what she said at all.
"Grandma, give, this piece of seven cents is the money I used to sell eggs, I haven't moved a cent, and the small restaurant is in the center of the street, the proprietress is surnamed Fan, her name is Fan Zhihong, and the boss is called San Fat, if you don't believe it, you can ask yourself."
Shen Xia still didn't believe it, she knew very well how many catties and taels her own girl had, so she thought it was Li Yaohui's sweetness for her, in order to cover up the lies she told in the past.
"Grandma, in the future, I will take care of our family's food, you can taste my craftsmanship more, if you think it is okay, you have to promise me not to do farm work in the future, I will go to the restaurant to be a cook for people, and the money I earn is not less than those workers." Lin Yun knew that in this family, Tang Fugui was the head of the family on the surface, but it was Shen Xia who really made the decisions, and she had to gain Shen Xia's trust.
Moreover, her current mother, who loves money like her life, in the past, Tang Xiaoyu dared to accept Li Yaohui's small favors every once in a while, but in fact, they were all instructed by Shen Xia.
"Nannan, you still learned to cook from your mother, your grandmother always scolded me for not cooking well when she was alive, you said that you can cook in a restaurant, why do I feel like I am dreaming!" Shen Xia muttered.
Lin Yun asked, "Grandma, did you say that the dumplings at night were delicious?" ”
Shen Xia licked the corners of her mouth, she watched a few children eat well tonight, she didn't want to eat more, she tried to save the children, she only ate three in total, but the taste was the best she had ever eaten for so long.
Shen Xia nodded repeatedly.
Lin Wan continued: "I suddenly got the hang of it, I dare to say, if I really want to be a cook, no less than this amount every month." Lin Wan stretched out three fingers.
She didn't dare to say more, she didn't want to scare Shen Xia yet.
Shen Xia immediately covered her mouth when she heard this, her eyes lit up, "Oh, really, alas, mom, in a year, there are more harvests than in the fields of so many of our family." ”
"yes, so grandma has to support me."
"If that's the case, Grandma will definitely support you."
……
The mother and daughter chatted about something else again before going to sleep.
The busiest season of the year is here.
Before dawn, Lin Yun was in a daze and heard the sound of grinding sickles, clattering, one after another, Shen Xia sucked up and urged Lin Yun to get up too.
The genius dew the fish belly is white, and he cut half an acre while it was cool. The breeze blows, the sweat flows, the tea bottle is filled with cool white water, and a bowl of water is grunt. You have two ridges, and he has three ridges, and you will see who cuts ...... faster.
The whole village was busy cutting wheat, and when Lin Wan straightened his waist, he saw everyone pouting their butts and wielding sickles.
That scene can be said to be spectacular, and it is inexplicably moving.
Horse-drawn carts, ox-carts, and man-drawn carts began to go into battle. Let's see who's pulling fast. When the weather is good, quickly pull the cut wheat to the threshing field and spread it out.
The next thing is to fight, when the field is played, the little babies are not afraid of the sun, and then sit on the stone slab behind the old stone, the cow walks, the little babies sit behind, the old daddy leads the cow in front, a circle, a circle and a circle, the old daddy drank two sips of wine at noon, turned around and dizzy, fell asleep, the little babies are still happy on the old stone hahaha laugh.
After the field is raised, the wheat raised is afraid of being carried away by animals or others. The family moved a soft bed, led a dog, Tang Fugui and Gazi laid a reed mat and covered a cotton sheet. A person from a neighboring village was burned to death in a kiln at the west end of the village. Whenever I watched the show at night, I watched it together and slept together, and when I got up early the next day, the neighbors would joke with each other: Have you ever seen someone who burned to death hand you a cigarette? The person on the other side will always say: This wheat straw, I don't dare to suck it even if I hand it over!
……
Tang Fugui's family rushed to the wheat harvest this year, and there was a man full of strength all over his body, and when he started working, the soles of his feet seemed to be pulling the wind, and Tang Fugui's yellow teeth reached the root of his ears.
Li Quanyou couldn't look at it, and said: "The life of farming!" ”
Just as the whole village was in full swing to harvest the wheat, the rumors were spreading more and more in the village.
