Five people, eight dishes, chatting at the dinner table, saying that the southeast, northwest, and northwest are all square, and the Qin family listened while eating the dishes, and the smile on his face kept coming.

When the dumpling was filled, Qin saw the pot full of meat filling, and there was no vegetable leaf, and said with a smile: "You children just eat more meat." I'm an old lady, I should be tired of eating all those meats, and I have to add some meat filling. ”

He Mai said: "Grandma, are you distressed again?" This meat filling was specially instructed by Liulang to tell me to wrap pure meat, just once a year, let's put more vegetables when we eat dumplings tomorrow, okay? ”

She insisted so much because she thought of the Chinese New Year's Eve last year, huddled in a dark small hut with the Qin family, and there was nothing around.

At that time, Qin's health was not good, and he barely got up in the next day, and wrapped a few vegetarian cornmeal dumplings with He Mai, which were still steamed in the pot.

The taste of cornmeal vegetarian dumplings, Hemai will never forget it for the rest of his life. But even then, the Qin family was still reluctant to eat, and after eating a dumpling, he excused himself from being full and asked Hemai to eat more.

At that time, it was really hard.

Thinking about it now, He Mai couldn't help but have a bitter tear in his heart.

She suppressed her sour tears and smiled at Qin's face, "Milk, we have two kinds of meat today!" In addition to the pork, there is also bamboo rat meat, but it's the first time I've wrapped it, and I don't know if it's delicious or not? ”

"You kid, don't you just wrap one kind of stuffing, what are you going to do to make two?" Qin's dumpling wrappers were thrown on the racket one by one, and the dumpling wrappers from her hand were slightly thicker in the middle and thin on both sides, and each one was evenly sized.

As the old saying goes, three points are rolled out and seven subcontracts are packed, and the dumplings are wrapped in the dumpling skin rolled out by the Qin family, and He Mai thinks the dumplings look much better.

After wrapping the dumplings, steaming and boiling in one pot, after serving the table, He Mai pointed to the four plates of dumplings and explained: "The white porcelain pot is filled with pork, and the flower porcelain pot is filled with bamboo rats. ”

"Enough is enough, our good woman, sit down, Grandma? I'm going to call her! Xu Jiang smiled and went to the stove room to call the Qin family, saying that he would not let the Qin family be busy anymore.

"Just a few of us are still wondering, on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, do we want to say that we will go in and make dumplings and ask you to rest?" But Helin's words are right, we went into that place, it was the battlefield, I was afraid that it would turn the world upside down, and in the end I had to ask you to clean up the mess, so I didn't go in. Xu Jiang said while biting the dumplings.

The dumpling skin was still steaming white, but he couldn't wait to eat the filling, naturally he was hot, but he refused to let go.

Qin Shi smiled: "Eat slowly, it's better in the pot!" You young man's family can think about us, I have already used it in my heart, but, He Lin is right, where can you enter that place? To go in is to add to the chaos! ”

"Grandma, don't you listen to Xu Jianghu, he is just lazy, if you feel embarrassed, why don't you behave on weekdays, but today?" Rokuro smiled, put a cool dumpling in the wheat bowl, and said softly, "Eat a few more dumplings." ”

After eating dumplings and keeping the New Year, Qin took out the New Year's money to a few children, and said with a smile: "In previous years, the family was not so lively, and you children can come to accompany my old lady for the New Year, I am so happy." ”

Xu Jiang pushed for a while and grinned and took it, "Grandma Lin, I will accompany you to celebrate the New Year next year in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve!" Don't bother me! ”

"Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed, it's too late to rejoice!" Qin smiled and said with his mouth closed.

After Chinese New Year's Eve, on the morning of the next new year, He Mai woke up to firecrackers.

According to custom, the first day of junior high school is when people in the village come to greet each other, and the second day of junior high school is when they go out to distant relatives.

When He Mai arrived at Qin's place, he saw that Qin's had already reconciled the noodles and was mixing dumpling filling.

Seeing that Hemai Liulang was coming, the old lady smiled and said, "Let's eat dumplings in the morning!" ”

"It's good to eat dumplings, grandma, let's make them together!" He Mai hurriedly washed his hands and went over to help.

The dumplings are small like ingots, and they don't look very eye-catching, but the taste is really good.

This morning, change the wheat rolling skin, and Qin's dumplings.

Qin smiled as he took a loaf of dumplings and said, "This dumpling is a rare thing, who can usually use those wheat bread dumplings?" I don't dare to use all the meat for that stuffing, how can I give it? Even when your father is here, the dumpling filling on the thirtieth night also has to be mixed with some vegetables. ”

He Mai smiled: "Aren't the conditions better now, how can it be compared with the past?" Grandma, don't worry, our days ahead will get better and better, and we won't be like last year. ”

Qin Shi was pleased: "Look at your little couple's happy life, my heart is sweeter than eating honey." ”

While speaking, the dumplings have been cooked, the fire is very hot, and after a while, the white dumplings are floating on the water like little pigs, which is almost cooked and can be eaten.

The dumplings were served, and Qin made two kinds of fillings, a pot of celery and pork, and a pot of leek eggs.

The eggs are fried until fragrant, and the minced leeks and shrimp skin are added to it, not to mention how bright it is.

Qin asked, "Why didn't Xiao Xu come?" Don't you wait for him, call him? ”

Liulang smiled: "Milk, don't worry about him, he stayed up all night yesterday, and he should still be sleeping in the bed at this time." I'll just send him some of these dumplings in a moment. ”

I thought that the Qin family would not say anything more, but she groaned and said, "Call Xiao Xu in a while, and ask him to come to the house to eat hot." ”

Although Rokuro felt strange, he didn't say anything and nodded in response.

After eating, the Shancao family came to pay New Year's greetings.

Lu Changming was carrying two catties of rice candy and two catties of fruit snacks in his hand, and the family gave New Year's greetings to the old lady when they entered the door.

After the two families exchanged pleasantries, several young people talked in the outhouse, and the three elders went into the inner room to talk.

"Ming'er has to go to your eldest brother in town to have a look?" Qin asked.

"Yes, gotta check it out! Do you want to go to the second year of junior high school? A few years ago, Yamaki went to the market, and he bought back the things he wanted to buy, and he went to his uncle's house tomorrow to bring them! ”

"I see that Shanmu's child is a matter of success, and you two husbands and wives are relieved, which is a good thing. Yamaki is seventeen this year, right? Is it time to find a family affair? ”

Speaking of his son's family affairs, a trace of bitterness flashed on Lu Changming's face.

"No! Yamaki is seventeen this year! Some of the boys of the same age in our village are fathers! Hey, I'm thinking, first tell Yamaki to study for a few years, no matter whether it will be successful in the future or not, reading is the first priority! Is this marriage ......" Lu Changming sighed heavily and lowered his head full of concern.
