Wulin Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of farmer girl farming!
With the efforts of the three sisters and brothers, the four sets of bedding were made in only a day and a half, although they were a little tired and consumed some lamp oil, but looking at the new quilt with flowers, everyone felt very happy.
There is only one day left before the Chinese New Year, Xu Miao has a lot of things to do, and the plate oil that he bought back was finally refined last night, less than ten catties of plate oil, and more than seven catties of meat oil.
This is a lot, generally better plate oil, one pound can produce eight taels of oil, Xu Miao is quite satisfied with the meat sold by this butcher, it just so happens that today the family wants balls, and this oil will come in handy.
Thinking about the things of the New Year, the dry food has not been steamed, the fish has not been cleaned up, and the stupid chicken that was bought, although the people have cleaned it up, it has not been chopped, in short, there are too many things to be busy, so early in the morning on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Xiao Nizi hurriedly got up early and worked hard.
First of all, the noodles sent the night before were processed, and then the jujubes bought from the town were washed and made into jujube steamed buns.
After Xu Ya and the three of them got up, Xu Miao began to chop radish and meat stuffing again, San Lang was a little tired because of making quilts in the past two days, and he was still lying on the kang, Xiao Wu came over to help Xu Miao light the fire, and as for Xu Ya, he was in the house to make spring clothes.
Yesterday, the eldest sister had already said that after the fifteenth year of the new year, she would send her brother to study in the town, and then come back to teach her and Xiaowu. Although Xu Ya is a girl, she also has a longing for studying, at least she must be able to write her name and not be blind.
The last two days in the room can be said to be particularly lively, there is no suspense in the main concentrated place, that is, the Feng family in the second room and the Jiang family in the third room, the two people will quarrel from time to time, and then the old things of the seven hundred years valley and eight hundred years of chaff will be moved out.
Of course, the result of this is that they were both scolded by the Lu family, and they were scolded fiercely, in short, the two days in the room were really not very smooth.
After breakfast, Xu Miao began to prepare croquettes, radish, pork belly filling, and a little bit of rice with white noodles, put salt and peppercorn noodles to adjust the taste, Xiao Wu on the side saw it, and couldn't stop swallowing saliva, the appearance of the little gluttonous cat, Xu Miao couldn't help laughing.
"Xiao Wu is good, the balls will be ready in a while, just give Xiao Wu a taste, ah!"
After Xu Miao finished speaking, Xiao Wu shook his head vigorously and said sensibly: "This is kept for the New Year, and you can only eat it during the New Year." ”
Looking at his persistent appearance, Xu Miao didn't say anything, after the oil in the pot was hot, Xiao Nizi grabbed a handful of meatball noodles, squeezed her index finger and thumb group in a circle, and held a small spoon in the other hand, scooping spoonful by spoon into balls and putting them in the pot.
In the end, soybean oil has to be used for this croquette, but when Xu Miao was buying things at that time, he just ignored this soybean oil thing, and now he can only use meat oil, that is, the fried croquettes are whiter, and there is no other problem.
After the first pot of balls floated up, Xiao Nizi fished it out with a fence, put it on the basin to control the oil, grabbed one and blew it, then took a bite, and fed the rest to Xiao Wu, asking:
"How's it salty? Isn't it delicious? ”
"Well, it's delicious!" Xiao Wu nodded while eating, smiling and smiling.
After Xu Miao put the second pot of meatballs in, she filled some in a bowl and handed them to Xiao Wu, saying, "Then come into the house for your sister and your brother, and the three of you will eat together." ”
"Oh!" The little guy obediently hugged the bowl and walked into the back room with a smile.
Xu Miao continued to start croquettes, she deliberately got more croquettes this year, the children like to eat them, they couldn't grab the slot in previous years, and they have to let them eat enough this year.
After the last pot of meatballs was fried, it was almost lunch, Xu Miao also tried to save trouble, just heated a few nests, added a little water to the bone broth stewed that day, and the meatballs that had just been fried, and the four sisters and brothers had a full lunch.
In the afternoon, there are more things to be busy, the fish is cleaned up and the oil is over, and then the chickens are blanched, and the clothes that are changed in the morning have to be washed...... There was always a pile of work waiting for her.
It seems that this year ago, every household was like this, there was nothing else to do except work, and you had to keep working to be able to live a clean New Year.
Xu Miao finished frying the fish and making the chicken, just boiled the water, and was about to wash the clothes for a while, when Shan walked in from outside and brought a bowl of croquettes in his hand.
"Sister Miao, come, this is for your sister and brother." Shan entered the room as he spoke, with a loving smile on his face.
Seeing this, Xu Miao hurriedly took the big bowl, looked at the yellow, orange and orange balls, and said with some embarrassment:
"Ouch, second uncle, look at you, you still bother to worry about us. Ya'er, quickly vacate the bowl for the second uncle. ”
"Hey!" The little girl put down the things in her hand, obediently went to the ground, and took the bowl to the outhouse. Shan sat on the kang, looked at the sleeping San Lang, and asked with concern:
"What's wrong with this kid? Went to town that day and froze? ”
"Nope." Xu Miao shook her head honestly, took out the melon seeds and snacks that she was going to eat for the New Year, and said, "Second uncle, eat some." ”
"No need, it's expensive." Shan shook his head and refused, they are all from the same village, and they all know each other, and Shan knows that these sisters and brothers have not eaten anything over the years.
Now that the family has split up, bought some things, and didn't forget to give them some, this is over, and they entertain her with these things, how can she be embarrassed to eat.
"It's okay, I bought a lot, second uncle, let's talk while eating." After Xu Miao finished speaking, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put them in Shan's hand, grabbed them himself, and took the lead in snorting.
Seeing her like this, Shan put the melon seeds in his hand back into the basket, and also asked symbolically: "What's the matter with San Lang?" ”
"Two days ago, he helped us make quilts, and I was tired." After Xu Miao finished speaking, he sighed softly.
Shan Shi listened to the reason, but he didn't squeak, and only said after a while: "Good boy, just ...... Alas! Before San Lang's child had an accident, he was as strong as a cow, and he was really distressed! ”
Xu Miao smiled bitterly and said: "What kind of life, I don't force anything, after the New Year, I plan to send him to the town to study, even if he can't study in Mingtang, at least don't be blind." ”
"Yes, that's right." Shan nodded approvingly, but after thinking about it, he asked again, "Child, then you ...... this bundle?"
"Don't worry, second uncle, I have it. He can still provide it, and when he comes back from learning, he is teaching me to be different from Ya'er and Xiao Wu. ”
"Ouch, you're still smart, why didn't I expect that after the New Year, I would send Huzi to the academy and let him come back to teach Niuzi." Shan smiled and said, remembering something and saying again......
