Chapter 282: Primary School Sports Day
After boiling the beans in the pot, there is no need to add firewood to the bottom of the pot, and it can be simmered slowly.
The next morning, the reddened beans and the cleaned and soaked sauce were put into several tin buckets.
Su Anying borrowed a wheelbarrow to push it and went to the mill in the backyard of the second brigade to push it.
This method of making sauce must be pushed with grinding, otherwise the sauce introduction cannot be finely ground, and whoever eats it will not be delicious.
By the time Su Anying and her two sisters pushed the wheelbarrow to the mill, there were already a lot of people lined up here.
The mill usually does not give the sauce beans, and only on the eighth day of the first month of April, April 18th, and April 28th, the days when the sauce is made, will be concentrated on the push and grind.
In this way, it is not used to brush back and forth the grinding chamber.
In the process of grinding, some water should be added, so four buckets of beans with sauce primers, and finally five buckets back.
Xu Chenghou left two barrels on his side and three barrels on this side.
According to the ratio of three catties of beans and one catty of salt, pour the sauce and salt into the porcelain jar.
Beans and sauce primers, in fact, there is more grain, and the ratio of grain to salt does not reach three to one.
Stir the dough with a rolling pin in one direction until the salt and sauce are well mixed and then sprinkle another layer of salt on top to seal the jar.
Finally, cover the cylinder mouth with a white cloth and tie the cylinder mouth tightly with a red cloth strip.
If it is a sauce cube, you have to put it outside to dry, and it can only be eaten after it has been fermented thoroughly for a month.
But a sauce like the Xu family's can be eaten in three days.
Of course, it is best to ferment it for a month, so that the flavor of the sauce will be stronger.
The Xu family still has the sauce they made last year, so they are not in a hurry to eat the new sauce.
It is said that the newly made sauce should not be moved by a person with a double body, and if it does, the sauce will not ferment and will spoil.
As for whether it's true or not, no one knows, no one has tested it.
The sauce beans are food, dozens of catties of beans, plus a lot of salt, are all money, who is willing to take risks?
Making sauce, pickles, and pickles are the three major events in the daily life of Northeast people, and they must be treated carefully.
I can't figure out that I won't have to eat for the next year, it's not a joke.
Waiting for the sauce to be sealed in the tank, it is not too early, Su Anying took a look, there is no need to go to the farm this morning, hurry up and clean up and cook.
As soon as the meal was ready, I heard Xu Haiyuan running in from outside.
"Mom, Mom, we're going to have a sports day tomorrow."
The tradition of Donggang Central Primary School is to hold a sports meeting on June 1st every year, and a small Bailing concert in the township on the 11th day.
The sports meeting is not only attended by the children of Donggang Central Primary School, but also by other brigade primary schools under Donggang Commune, which can be regarded as a rare activity of Donggang Commune.
"What are you happy about when the elementary school sports meeting is held? Do you still have a project? ”
Su Anying smiled when she heard this, raised her hand and rubbed the top of her son's head, the baby of the red class, is there still a project to participate?
"Yes, yes, the teacher said, we also have a project, and if anyone wins, they will be rewarded with sugar."
Xu Haiyuan pursed his mouth, feeling that his mother looked down on him.
He can't participate in the sports meeting at a young age? Who prescribes?
"Oh, so you can also participate, so do you need your mother to accompany you to school tomorrow?"
When Su Anying looked at her son like that, she knew that she had hurt her son's self-esteem by saying it casually, and she immediately regretted it.
"Did your teacher say what kind of clothes to wear? Mom hurry up and find it for you. ”
Su Anying remembered watching the primary school sports meeting before, and many children wore white shirts and black pants.
For this set of clothes, many families have to borrow them.
Xu Haiyuan doesn't need to borrow it, Xu Shiqin just made him a white shirt a few days ago, and black pants are also available at home.
"No, the teacher didn't say that we don't have to review, we should wear whatever we want.
If mom has time tomorrow, let's take my sister to school and let her watch the excitement too. ”
The child is very sensitive, and when he senses his mother's remorse, Xu Haiyuan doesn't mind.
Su Anying thought about it, on the side of the farm, there were glass windows left in the flower shed, and it was estimated that it would take a few days.
And then there's the nail stand or something, Xu Shi'an is no problem watching over there.
"Okay, then I'll accompany you to school tomorrow, just take your sister over to watch the excitement."
There are too many people on this occasion, and Xu Jinping can't go by herself, so she still has to follow the adults to avoid any accidents.
On May 31, Su Anying led Xu Jinping, Su Anfang and Su Anhua hugged Xu Haiqing and Xu Jinhui, and went to the school to watch the sports meeting together.
Zhou Guilan was idle and bored at home, and she also followed the past to join in the fun.
It just so happened that Ji Yufeng also led Yang Haoyu to come, and everyone met at the school gate.
The annual sports meeting of the elementary school is also a rare entertainment activity, and the people around them lead the children to watch the excitement.
At the entrance of the elementary school, many people got some food to sell.
Sodas, popsicles, candy, and most surprisingly, there are even big necks.
Yang Haoyu had never seen a big neck, so he was very curious and asked Ji Yufeng what it was.
Zhou Guilan couldn't help shaking her head when she saw the big neck.
"If you're still in a big house, you can go home and wash your clothes, it's much thicker than this."
Most of these things grow on the roots of the stone stone by the river, and there are many of them on the other side of the big house in Xijiang.
There is no river or stone stone at this end of Donggang, no wonder the children don't know each other.
Although she was disgusted, the old lady still took out the money, bought three sticks, and gave the three big ones a taste.
"This thing has to be peeled, and the outer scalp is stripped off and eaten inside, it's sour."
The big neck eats the rod, and the part that grows in the ground under it is white.
The most tender is here, there will be a little sweetness in the sour, the more you eat it, the more sour it becomes, and in the end, it will be sour and astringent.
The children didn't like it, they ate very energetically, and said it was delicious while eating.
looked at Zhou Guilan and frowned, this thing can only be eaten by children, but adults are sour.
After eating the big neck, it's time to start the review.
All teachers and students are lining up outside the entrance of the elementary school, ready to enter.
More than 20 classes in Donggang Central Primary School, plus the primary schools of other brigades, are almost lined up to the martyrs' tombs.
At the head of the line was an art teacher from an elementary school, a small man wearing a red cloak and holding a pointed command staff.
The national flag team followed behind, then the elementary school drum and bugle team, waist drum team, dance team, and wreath performance team, and then behind were tall boys carrying school cards, sword flag teams, and teams of various classes.
When the time for the review came, the leading teacher held a command staff and led the students in.
"Grandma, those sisters are dressed so beautifully, I will come to study in the future and dress up like them."
The girls in the dance team are wearing short skirts, white dance pants, makeup on their faces, and their hair is tied up on top of their heads, and they have red flowers.
When Xu Jinping saw it, she felt that those girls were very good-looking, and she was envious, so she told her grandmother that she would also join the dance team in the future.
"Cut, what's it good to look at? The faces are painted red, ugly to death. ”
Unexpectedly, Xu Haiyuan next to him pouted.
The blush on the faces of those girls is a particularly red lump, in Xu Haiyuan's eyes, it is simply ugly to death, I don't know how his sister still thinks it looks good?
"Well, the eldest brother is right, it's not good-looking.
Second sister, don't dress like this, it's too ugly. Yang Haoyu echoed beside him.
