Chapter 43: The Taste of the Year (3)
Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet Chinese New Year's Eve, Bai Lu sorted out the income and expenditure of the year, deducting the newly purchased shops and the wages paid to Tian Dagui and them, with a full surplus of 125 taels. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Sister, you look so scary now, aren't you hungry?" It was already night, Bai Su and Bai Zhi were both lying on the bed, and Bai Lu was chatting with them while counting the money in the corner of the bed.
Bai Lu gave Bai Su a roll of the eyes, what did she mean that she was not full, she was just excited to see such money.
"Sister, you roll your eyes, it's so ugly." Bai Zhi blinked her eyes and said innocently.
…… These two little girls have become bolder!
"The two of you will each write three big characters tomorrow, or I won't take you out to play tomorrow."
"Uncle Wu will take us there, he told us yesterday." Bai Su opened his mouth grinning.
Bai Lu supports his forehead, which has raised human essence.
Bai Zhi chatted a little sleepy, rubbed her eyes, yawned and said coquettishly, "Sister, tell me the story of the three little pigs!" ”
Bai Lu didn't read it too early, satisfied Bai Zhi's little wish, and told the story gently......
Coaxed them to almost fall asleep, Bai Lu hid all the silver, and saw the silver bag that Situ Yu gave her when she left last time, she couldn't help sighing, and she didn't know if Qi'er missed her when she went home, but she missed Qi'er.
It's rarely snowing recently, and the snow on the ground has melted almost, but the weather is still cold and biting, and if you don't burn the stove at night, it will definitely wake people up, Bai Lu has hoarded a lot of coal, so naturally she won't treat herself badly, she and her children have gained a lot of weight recently, according to this marriageable age, if you don't want to keep filial piety, you probably have to get married.
As soon as Bai Lu thought of marrying at fifteen and having children at sixteen, a pimple rose all over his body.
If this is in modern times, fifteen years old is still a junior high school student!
Shaking his head, Bai Lu took off his clothes, blew out the candle flame again, and immediately got into the bed, put the matter behind him, and fell into a sweet dream.
When she woke up in the morning, Bai Lu specially asked Chef Zhang to add dinner tonight, and asked a few children to order their favorite dishes.
Wu Yi and Chu Ju are no exception, but Wu Yi is not particular about eating, Chu Ju is used to hard life, as long as she can eat enough, she feels very satisfied, and she has no requirements for ordering her favorite food.
"Then let's make some dumplings in the afternoon, and Uncle Zhang will be responsible for cooking!"
In the afternoon, the dumpling-making business begins.
There are two kinds of dumpling fillings, one is pork and leeks, and the other is fungus and shrimp, which are all children's favorite food, so Bai Lu was very happy when they let them stir the filling.
Bai Lu didn't expect a few children to do anything at all, just to find something for them to do and not run around.
Baizhu is a boy, and Bai Lu originally wanted him to wash the vegetables, but Baizhu automatically asked Ying to help Chef Zhang light the fire.
So the task of washing vegetables fell Wu Yi.
Wu Yi said that he was very unconvinced, how could he be a dignified seven-foot man squatting in the corner to wash vegetables.
"White girl, I won't do it........." Wu Yi complained with a face.
Bai Lu was busy kneading the dough, where did he have the time to take care of him, and the spare minced meat next to Nunu's mouth signaled to him, if he didn't wash the vegetables, it would be the end.
And there are no human rights anymore!!
Wu Yi roared in his heart, and then silently went to the corner to wash vegetables.
Kneaded the dough and put it aside to ferment, Bai Lu took advantage of the time to wake up, she and Chu Ju worked together to stir the meat again, and adjusted the taste.
The dough was made with some baking powder similar to that of modern times, and it didn't take long for the dough to rise.
Bai Lu was responsible for rolling the dough into dumpling wrappers, and Chu Ju was responsible for making dumplings, and the two of them moved quickly, and after a while, they made more than a dozen.
"Sister, I want to pack it too!" Bai Su was very Bai Zhi had nothing to do on the side, and when she saw Chu Ju pinching it with her hand, the dumplings with thin skin and many fillings were wrapped, and they also had itchy hands.
"Okay, I'll give you two of these tickets, but you have to pack them well."
Bai Lu picked a few smaller dumplings for Bai Su and Bai Zhi.
Bai Su and Bai Zhi took it happily, and learned that Chu Ju first put the dumpling skin in the flour for a while, and then added the trap, it is best to fold it in half and seal it.
The appearance is not as good-looking as Chu Ju, and the two of them are young, and the traps placed in them are also uneven, some of them squeeze the skin, and some of them are just a little bit.
Bai Lu still solemnly praised them, after all, these two children are still very serious about wrapping up, although it doesn't look good, haha.
"Quick, I want it too, Sister Chu Ju will teach me to pack!" Wu Yi finally finished washing the vegetables from the corner, and immediately washed his hands to come over to make dumplings, this is the first time he has made dumplings with his own family.
"Wipe your hands clean first, the wet skin is easy to stick together!" Bai Lu unceremoniously threw a clean rag over.
"Okay!" Wu took it quickly, wiped his hands and went to get the dumpling skin.
"Smack!" Chu Ju gently patted Wu Yi's hand.
"Sister Chuju, you also bullied me." Wu Yi took a small piece of garlic from Chef Zhang and wiped it on his eyes, and tears immediately swirled in the frame of his eyes, and he immediately looked pitiful and pitiful, robbing the people's daughters.
"Ahem!" Chef Zhang couldn't look at it, and he didn't dare to laugh out loud, so he could only cover it up with a cough.
"Your posture with dumpling wrappers is wrong!" Chu Ju said with a smile, she also saw that it was Wu Yi who was acting.
"Oh......" Wu Yi baby immediately came over to ask Chu Ju for advice.
Bai Lu expressed his shame towards Wu Yi, in front of him was the image of a sanctimonious and humble gentleman, and he was more cunning than a ruffian and hooligan behind his back.
Especially those girls who were deceived by Wu Yi, Bai Lu wanted to show them their eyes.
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen that girl in a long time!" The work in Bai Lu's hands slowed down, and he began to chat with Chu Ju about gossip.
"I heard that I want to lose weight for Brother Wu!" Bai Lu exchanged first-hand information.
In fact, she accidentally passed by Daxi's house and heard what she told her father.
"I've heard about it too! And her father didn't let her lose it, saying that a girl should be like his daughter, how cute she is chubby. Chu Ju also said, this is what she heard from a vegetable seller.
"Huh? Really? Xiao Yi, the age of your pro-family has passed, or else it's okay now. Chef Zhang was cooking duck soup and said busily.
The dumpling skin in Wu Yi's hand fell down in fright, this is too terrifying, I am happy that there is so much meat, even if it is reduced by half, it is still a lot!
And she also eats and eats every day, Wu Yi will never believe that Daxi will lose weight successfully.
If you want to let yourself marry her, then let him be a monk.
Bai Lu glanced at Wu Yi, who didn't know where the fugue was, and asked Bai Zhu to summon his soul back, but now she couldn't move the flour in her hands.
