Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Nanyang Chapter 16 Steamed Bun Conference 5
After his mother Guo left, Wu Yong began to serve the dishes with guilt, and he would let the big guys taste the delicious food sandwich buns later.
About half an hour later, people began to gather on this side of the square, and all families came over happily carrying the kneaded bread dough.
Wu Yong looked at the things they were carrying, all sorted, and couldn't help but have a big head.
Some of them are large wooden boards, and there are grates made of bamboo chips, and some households even carry the boards directly......
Wu Yong secretly said in his heart: If you have the opportunity, you must teach everyone to make sorghum pot shots, which is the best partner for pasta making.
While thinking about what he had and what he didn't have, he hurriedly arranged for the woman to put the dough in the steamer, and at the same time instructed the two women to boil water.
After a while, the water boiled, and Wu Yong and a woman stacked the steamer on the boiling water layer by layer, and then closed the steaming lid.
Just about to breathe a sigh of relief, Wu Yong saw the dough that was constantly being carried by the villagers, so he patted his head and said in distress: "It's bad, this cage just steamed the dough of one family, it can only be steamed eight baskets at a time, and it takes at least thirty minutes to steam the dough of hundreds of households, and when all the dough of hundreds of households is steamed, I don't know when it will be, and this dough has been fermented for a long time, not only the surface is cracked, but the taste will be sour." ”
Zhu Lidian happened to be passing by, and when he heard this, he laughed: "Virtuous nephew, don't worry, it's just a trivial matter." ”
Wu Yong thought he had thought of some clever trick, but he didn't expect Zhu Lidian to stop on the high platform and shouted: "Folks, the steamer is not enough now, please notify the villagers who have not yet been delivered, so that they don't have to rush here, and they will steam the buns at home to relieve their worries and send them over." ”
Everyone below agreed to the promise and began to run to tell each other.
Wu Yong felt that his IQ was pressed to the ground and rubbed twice today, of course, it was not that he was not intellectually insufficient, it was to blame his habitual thinking in the later generations, and the life experience in this world was obviously insufficient, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: It seems that in the future, it is better not to think about problems from the perspective of the future generations, and to listen to the opinions of the people in the world.
The next thing was simple, with the help of a woman to make a fire, Wu Yong began to boil the oil.
When the pork was put into the pot, everyone who smelled the fragrance felt as if there were countless gluttonous insects in their bodies about to crawl out, staring blankly at the iron pot that kept coming out of the aroma, and swallowed their saliva.
Wu Yong concentrated on stir-frying, this time he didn't think about the dishes at all, and directly poured all the side dishes into the pot and stewed them indiscriminately. Because his intuition told him that instead of bothering to study and make dishes, it was better to make the villagers happy to eat.
Half an hour later, Wu Yong, whose stomach was rumbling, asked the two women who were burning the fire to remove the firewood, and took the time to take a look at the system time, it was already more than ten o'clock at noon. At this time, families began to carry steamed anxiety relief buns one after another.
After a while, when all the families arrived, the anxiety relief buns in the steamer here were just taken out.
At this time, a group of strong men brought a half-person high offering table, Zhu Lidian found a clay pot and filled it with steamed buns, Li Tiandian found a clay pot and filled it with stewed dishes, and the two of them placed the clay pot and clay pot at both ends of the offering table.
Then Zhuo Wenxuan took a bowl of wheat and placed it in the center of the offering table, lit three sticks of incense, handed it to Wu Yong, and motioned him to insert it into the wheat.
After Wu Yong finished the incense, he turned around and found that the crowd had already lined up, everyone was very quiet, looking a little solemn, and he stood beside Zhu Lidian under the signal of Zhuo Wenxuan.
With Zhu Lidian's "kneeling", everyone, regardless of gender, age and child, knelt on the ground and followed Zhu Lidian's voice to bow down three times.
"This first bow, thank you for the blessing of the heavens, bless me to look forward to the wind and rain every year."
"This second bow, thank you for the nurturing grace of the earth, and ensure that I have abundant food and clothing in my old age."
"This third bow, thank the ancestors for their blessing and protect me to restore the prosperity of my descendants."
After a brief sacrifice, as Zhu Lidian said, "After the salute, start to share the food", the crowd suddenly returned to noisy.
At this time, Li Tiandian spoke again, "Folks, today I will share food for everyone, presumably everyone can't wait to eat the relief bun, don't talk much, this time the food, adult men each get six, women and children each get four, and then please come up to receive the food of each family." ”
The crowd applauded, and the heads of families came over happily with bamboo sieves and pottery bowls.
Wu Yong didn't know what to do next, he remembered similar things, and Uncle Zhuo went to get them.
At this moment, Cheng Zhao trotted over and handed him the bamboo sieve and pottery bowl, and quickly ran back.
After the tea was opened, the heads of each family received the relief buns one after another, and Wu Yong stepped forward.
Li Tiandian glanced at the Wu family not far away, and said with a smile: "The situation of your family, Uncle Ru Zhuo has already told me, today's relief of worries was invented by you, there are four more people in your family, I will share the food with your family, and each family will not say anything, you move the household registration of your mother and sisters as soon as possible, don't let outsiders gossip." ”
Wu Yong hurriedly thanked him, and then came to the Wu family's resting place with thirty-two worries and a bowl of stew, and as soon as he put down his things, his grandmother grabbed his hand, looked at him with tears in his eyes, and kept shouting, 'The good grandson has grown up'.
Wu Yong couldn't stand this kind of family affection the most, and was a little at a loss for a while, but fortunately, her mother Guo handed over a steamed bun and interjected: "Aunt first try the worry-relieving bun made by Yong'er." ”
The old man was already a little hungry, so he didn't shirk it at the moment, tasted it, and then praised: "Yong'er's anxiety relief bun tastes so good, soft and glutinous, you have been busy all morning, and you are all hungry, so let's share it!" ”
Ren agreed, and according to Wu Yong's instructions, he broke the worry relief bun and sandwiched the stew in the middle.
Everyone already knew Wu Yong's methods, and they didn't think it was too magical, the two younger sisters took the vegetable bun, and couldn't wait to take a bite, and suddenly their eyes widened, and they said vaguely while eating: "Woo, it's delicious...... delicious."
He Lian and Cheng Zhao took the vegetable sandwich bun, and they didn't care about the lady's demeanor, the two of them started to eat the first bite, the cherry mouth never stopped, opened to reveal the neat teeth, it seemed to chew slowly, but in fact, the speed was not slow, and they ate four in a while.
When the last dish was eaten by Ren's, she found that everyone had already eaten it, and now they were all watching her eat, and she couldn't help blushing, and said embarrassedly: "The anxiety relief bun made by Yong'er is so delicious, people are unconsciously immersed in it, but it's a pity that the worry relief bun distributed today is a little less!" ”
Wu Yong felt completely unfed after eating four anxiety relief buns, so he smiled and said, "That's not easy, when we get home, let's continue to do it!" ”
After hearing this, the two sisters cheered loudly, even He Lian and Cheng Zhao's eyes lit up, and the two of them showed a touch of surprise on their pretty faces.
At this moment, the inner door was slammed, and some people shouted: "Lord Taishou is inspecting, where is the pawn here, don't hurry up and open the door to greet him." ”
