87.Chapter 87
However, people who are cheering are always everywhere, and a few players who are five big and three rough have long looked at me unpleasantly, so they took the initiative to rush out, and they even pushed me out with a smile. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Well, I'm a kind person, and I don't want to, albeit reluctantly, but I don't want to let that ruin everyone's interest......
The first step was to take out a large wooden retort from the Yang family, wash it and clean it, and then fill it with a large basin of water to soak it.
Anyway, I've lived for more than 20 years, and I've never seen such a big cooking utensil!
From the outside, it is as thick as a pair of hands, and when the inner lining is removed, it resembles a large wooden barrel without a bottom. In fact, there are three main components: the retort body, which is woven into an inverted plate shape with bamboo strips, a partition that can be stuck below the waist of the retort, and a retort lid made of straw straw that looks like a hat or an inverted bowl.
What can match the big wooden retort is the big iron pot on the Yang family's earthen stove, which is now also washed and polished.
In front of the stove, the father of the Yang family has brought a lot of firewood that has been split into strips, and it has dried out after a year or two of aging.
In these scenes, the team members took the initiative to turn on their digital cameras to take pictures and record videos.
Based on this, I preliminarily judged that Yang Yingcui should be planning to make steamed food for everyone.
Yang Yingcui didn't hide it, and told us that the staple food to be made this morning was steamed rice balls, and everyone would wait and see!
Next is rice washing, and more than 20 people eat a lot of rice!
However, at my strong request, Brother Biao also went to the supply truck to bring a bag of 10 kilograms of high-quality fragrant rice, which was enough!
Then the hard work really began.
Yang Yingcui asked us to take turns to use the reef to process some food and condiments.
This kind of thing is also the first thing we have seen in the farmhouse.
At this time, Uncle Xuanzhen also came to the side to watch the excitement, and she introduced us according to her professional knowledge that in the past, it was a tool used every day in the countryside to hull rice or make powdered items.
In appearance, it resembles a dragonfly, or a deformed cross.
Roughly speaking, at the tail of the "dragonfly", it is the place where you step down hard, and correspondingly, a strip-shaped shallow pit is dug down on the ground, about 30 centimeters.
The wings of the Dragonfly are slightly ahead of the middle and are made up of a log that acts as a half-shaft, the fulcrum of the lever.
At the head of the "Dragonfly" is a rectangular notch, which is fixed with a wedge, and of course the nozzle can be replaced by loosening the wedge.
The mouthpiece is made of stone and wood, and we also carried out the work of replacing the mouthpiece under the hand-in-hand guidance of the Yang father. The wooden one is fine, but the stone mouth is quite heavy!
Directly opposite the spout is a bowl-shaped nest hewn out of a whole stone, and the things that need to be processed are placed in it.
The operation process of the dragon is not complicated, that is, press the pedal of the tail of the "dragonfly" downward, so that the head of the dragon keeps rising and falling. This stance is similar to the rise and fall of a rocker.
As the head falls, as long as one person takes care of it next to the nest, stirs flexibly, and prevents things from being taken out of the nest, in short, let the mouth constantly rub or collide with the things that need to be processed in the nest.
The process of processing the food with the rice bowl made almost everyone feel fresh and curious, and their companions came to watch and take pictures.
However, it looks simple, but the actual operation is quite time-consuming and laborious, processing different materials have different force control requirements, we are clumsy, rough and rough to amuse the onlookers, almost everyone involved in the operation made a lot of jokes.
Cough...... It can be seen how difficult it was for people in the past to live! There were endless opportunities for exercise every day, but although they had a lot of food, life was about exercise, and most of the people at that time had a much better physique than people now.
......
Yang Yingcui asked us to process a lot of things, such as roasted dried peppers, dried cured beef that needs to be beaten into shreds, and wild onions specially picked from outside by Yang's father.
One of the longest rhizomes was so hard that we were so tired that we were so tired that we were panting for breath after changing several batches of people, so it was hard to process it into minced pieces.
Later, when Yang Yingcui came to accept it, she also laughed and said: "This particle is too thick...... But forget it, it's about the same, and you don't need to be too strict. ”
And when everyone asked what it was, she smiled and didn't answer, only saying that the exclusive secret recipe was absolutely delicious, so don't ask more.
Cut, come to this set again, pretending to be a ghost!
In the process of our busy work, Sister Wang and Wang Xinmei and others are not idle, their main job is to mix and stir together with the previously processed condiments and complementary foods and the rice that has been cooked to medium-rare, and then everyone will knead the rice balls together.
The rice balls are made of white flowers and are also decorated with colorful side dishes, such as shredded beef, diced carrots and other food items.
Then they wrap the rice balls one by one in the green leaves, tie them with the long leaves of the herbs, and put them in a large wooden retort to prepare for the final steaming process.
In addition, Yang Yingcui also used a soup pot, added water to the particles of unknown rhizomes that we had processed at the end, and began to cook the soup over high heat.
After another half hour or so, when the water was boiling, she lifted the lid and added the freshly picked mushrooms.
――I was worried about the fungus when I heard about it beforehand, and I kept muttering in my heart, but after checking it, it was all the bacteria I was familiar with, and there was no problem, so I was relieved.
As soon as the lid of the soup pot was lifted, everyone was drunk and couldn't help but sniff!
It's so fragrant, it's so fragrant! That unique and pleasant fragrance spreads, it's really indescribably comfortable.
I guess the whole village of Yang can smell this smell now.
What kind of magical mountain treasure is this? It smells so good!
The companions exclaimed, "Wow, I smell drunk, so if I take a sip, can I still go on an adventure today?"
Yang Yingcui laughed: "Don't worry, this soup is used for everyone's encouragement, not for everyone to patronize and enjoy not working." ”
When she said this, I even felt that all the unhappiness between me and her before seemed to have never happened, as if it was all a dream, and now the woman in front of everyone is completely real, hardworking and kind......
Could it be that labor can really make a person innocent and return to the original?
No, it's actually me daydreaming.
Later, I learned that in addition to me, there is also Uncle Xuanzhen.
Of course, she had similar thoughts to me at the time, but she was not sure and not very sure, and besides, just one or two people, even if they stood up and accused Yang Yingcui on the spot, most of them were just hatred for themselves, and they would not play any positive role.
In fact, I was a little obsessed with the scent at the time.
I also saw that when the fragrance was wafting, Uncle Xuanzhen was stunned for a moment, she looked at me and the others who were releasing joy suspiciously, and opened her mouth to say something, but she shook her head and denied her own thoughts.
However, her natural sensitivity and intuition made her decide to stay away from the crowd, so she quietly walked out of the small courtyard.
And when I saw her strange behavior, I didn't even think much of it.
What a pity!
