Chapter 264: Straw Cake Kueh
After Secretary Chen finished speaking angrily, he frowned, put down the tea bowl and stood up and walked out.
"You go quickly, if you don't intercept it in time, I won't care about you then."
Secretary Chen glanced at him with drooping eyes, "Can't you be more aggressive?"
"It's enough to be angry, I've only been at sea for less than half a year, and I can't be a fat man in one go."
Secretary Chen shook his head, walked out with his hands behind his back.
Ye Yaodong looked at his slow movements and was anxious for him.
Lin Xiuqing sat in front of the stove and cooked, from the beginning to the end, but he didn't say anything, and when he heard him say that he was yangwei, the fire tongs in her hand were not held steady, and her embarrassed ears were red, this guy really has no taboos.
"Gone?"
"Well, let's go, and I said that there is something good to find me, which makes me happy, so that's it?"
"If only we had 10,000 dollars." Lin Xiuqing had some regrets, and she also felt that the opportunity was rare.
"It's a good thing to have 10,000 yuan, but there's no need to advertise it, there will be no less trouble that will follow, and we don't have that much ability and so much spare time to deal with? People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and when we have so much money that we are not afraid of people fighting the autumn wind, it doesn't matter."
Lin Xiuqing blinked her eyes, thinking that it made sense.
Ye Yaodong flicked her head, "Hurry up and cook, after a day's work, I'm starving."
The couple thought that Secretary Chen had said this, and it would be over, but they didn't expect it to be over.
The family was having dinner lively, and Secretary Chen actually came over in a hurry, and Ye Yaodong chuckled in his heart.
If this is intercepted, he won't run again, right?
"Adong, I'm really sorry, I just came out to check with you in the afternoon, but when I went back, the report had already been typed, and they were afraid that it would be too late to hand it in advance."
"The group of people in the village committee all think that you should be eight or nine without leaving ten, maybe a little bit, and when the time comes, the village will help make up for it a little, and it will be okay to borrow you to move for a few days, so they make their own decisions." As soon as Secretary Chen walked in, he sincerely apologized.
Ye Yaodong was shocked and directly threw down the fast child and stood up, "it...... You're messing around! I don't say it all, am I a cut short of the boss? You guys are cutting first and then playing, do you really think that money is so easy to make?"
"Alas, I don't know, I told them to ask you in the afternoon, who knows that they are afraid that they will be preempted by other villages, and they are also worried that it will be too late, and they will report directly to tomorrow. Who made you out of the limelight too much during this time......
"Damn, you blame me for making your own decisions?"
Secretary Chen sneered embarrassedly, "Look, this is all reported, or you will be on top, and then when the time comes, you will tell me all about your fishing experience during this time?" The poor money village will move a little bit to borrow you?"
"Don't you have to pay it back? I'm nine thousand bucks!"
He raised his voice, "Nine thousand? Are you kidding?"
Secretary Chen's head shook like a rattle, "That's not good, it's borrowed from you, not for you, no matter how much money you have, you have to pay it back after you pay it over."
"Then you said wool, I thought it would be given to me directly, then I would reluctantly get on it."
"Look at what you said, how many people squeeze their heads and want to be 10,000 yuan households don't have this opportunity, it is a public commendation, and it is in the newspaper, this opportunity is given to you in front of you......
Ye Yaodong frowned and waved his hand, "I can't help, I can't help." I'm an honest person, I can't do this trick, you look for someone else, and when someone comes from the county, just take it directly to someone else's house, I really can't do it. Some time ago, there were a lot of people in the village who made a fortune, so you can ask and arrange for someone to go on top."
Secretary Chen directly and automatically skipped the sentence that he said that he was an honest person, and he also felt that this matter was a bit difficult to handle now, and he knew that he should not think about those false names from the beginning.
"Really?"
"Not really!"
"I'll see how it goes, why don't you go to sea for the next few days?" Stay home first, say
Maybe when someone will come?"
It's a dog!
"I don't care", he glared at Secretary Chen depressedly, "If you don't go to sea for a day, it's a loss for a day, you make up for me?" It's okay to force me to find trouble......
"I'll go back and discuss, let's find out again, let's say this first, you also have a number in your heart, I'll go first......" Secretary Chen said and retreated.
"What do you mean by having a number in your heart? You don't want me to go on top of it, do you...... Feed...... Let's be clear......
Ye Yaodong stood at the door and shouted, only to see Secretary Chen's footsteps getting faster and faster, and he ran up to the back, for fear that he would catch up.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua, who had just come back, also heard his voice and walked out of the house one after another, "What's the matter, the third child?"
"What's wrong? Why did Secretary Chen come to you? Where are you going?" Ye Yaopeng looked at the back in the distance and asked with some puzzlement.
"***, dug a pit for me, and you have to tell me to jump, I'm going to be angry with him......
"What's the matter?"
"Speak up and listen?"
Ye Yaodong looked at the curious appearance of the two elder brothers, and felt that there was nothing to say, the two sisters-in-law knew about it, if he continued to shout everywhere, he couldn't stop it, and then maybe he would have a reputation of 10,000 yuan households, and it would be a real day.
"It's okay, it's okay, before the matter comes to an end, I'm complaining, let's go eat first!"
"Are you really okay? I just saw how much you reacted......
He waved his hand and went straight into the house, "Say it again!"
He still has to go to a literacy class after eating, and now he goes as long as he can, and if he doesn't have time, he keeps it there anyway.
During the day, I originally wanted to find Ah Cai to order bait, but after being intercepted by Secretary Chen and going home directly, he was delayed for a long time, and there were not many miscellaneous fish and shrimp in the past.
Without bait, he had to go out to sea as usual at night, and he couldn't let go of longlining, and he still had trawl nets and sticky nets. What about the 10,000 yuan household, how can he have time to sit at home and wait.
As for whether there will be people from the county? Will he still be called on top? Or have you already found someone else? This was not in his consideration, it was not his will.
He went out of the sea for four days in a row, and collected the goods of the ground cage that should be collected.
In winter, the activity of the fish is low, and it is easy to get wind in the afternoon, and in recent days, the wind has come back early at two or three o'clock.
The daily income is more than forty, and sometimes there are sixty or seventy goods in the cage, there is no big goods, but the receipt is also very good, and there is a lot left after deducting the oil money, which is better than being idle at home.
The weather was sunny for more than ten days in a row, and he only went to sea for four days, and then it was windy and rainy, and it became a rainy day. Fortunately, a few days ago, everything that should be dried was dried, and the dried fish, sweet potatoes, and radishes were all dried and put away.
Although the rainy day is a little uncomfortable, but in the winter, the weather is dry and not very humid, but the temperature has dropped again, and the family is reluctant to get up after eating every day.
It rained for several days, Lin Xiuqing had nothing to do at home, thinking that it was almost the winter solstice, and a few days ago, she dried shredded radish and the newly made sweet potato powder that Ye Mu took, so she planned to make some rice dumplings to eat.
Locally, rice dumplings are also called "straw buns."
It is a local custom to eat rice dumplings on the winter solstice, and they are generally prepared in advance and placed there, and a few are steamed at any time when you want to eat them.
In fact, she didn't want to get up early in the morning to cook breakfast, it was too cold, make a little rice dumplings and put them there, just get up and steam a few every morning, which is convenient and delicious.
Ye Yaodong knew that after she was going to make rice dumplings, he was also interested in collecting materials for her, and the rice dumplings had to be made with fish to be delicious, he hadn't been to sea for a few days, and there was no stock at home.
So early in the morning, he planned to wait on the road in the center of the village, it was very windy today, but there was no rain, and there should be a small cart to sell goods. It's the winter solstice recently, and there must be fish on the cart
Meat is sold.
As soon as he arrived, he saw a lot of women around the cart buying things there, most of them were buying fish, and it was almost the New Year, and most people were willing to spend some money.
What's more, the winter solstice is coming, and for the locals, the winter solstice is a very important solar term.
Ye Yaodong waited for those women to grab it, and then wrapped the rest of the fish meat, the fish sold at the stall was not the kind of small fish on the market, it was a large piece of fish meat, and it was cut as much as you wanted.
This huge fish is only found in the deep sea, and it is large, and the flesh on its body is extraordinarily thick, and it is one or two times larger than a cutting board when spread out.
The remaining You fish meat is about a catty, which is enough, and the vendor directly pierces a hole with a knife, and carries it to him with a straw rope, and he asks the vendor to cut a three-layer piece of meat, and the straw cake also needs to be put in the meat.
The other ingredients are complete at home, so you don't need to buy them.
When she got home, Lin Xiuqing called him to wash the sweet potatoes and scrape the skin, and she went to pluck celery and garlic leaves, and fried the filling first.
Dice the meat, dice the fish, cut the celery and garlic leaves, and stir-fry them with shredded radish to taste.
They love celery locally, and they like to put some celery in everything they cook.
Fortunately, it is an earthen stove, big enough to facilitate stir-frying, and after a while, a large pot of fragrant fillings will come out of the pot.
The two children were already drooling when they smelled the smell, so Lin Xiuqing filled a small bowl for one of them and sent them away to save them from getting in the way.
Then she then cut the sliced sweet potatoes into pieces and steamed them in a pot, ready to mix them into the sweet potato flour for a while.
The dough is reddish-brown, especially soft, and you can also leave fresh sweet potatoes behind, but they are more delicious, and they are white if they are not steamed, or you can also put purple potatoes, so that the steamed straw buns are purple.
Ye Yaodong saw that she was busy, thinking that there was still sweet potato flour that had not been packed, so he took the empty canned bottle, went to the sack to scoop the newly made sweet potato flour made a few days ago, and poured most of the basin before starting to add water and noodles.
"Will you?" Lin Xiuqing looked at his movements questioningly, she had never seen him do it.
"It's just noodles, what's not? I have a lot of strength, just kneading."
"This bit of sweet potato flour is not enough, I have to live a basin again, wrap a little more, and send a little to the old house when the time comes."
"Is there any sugar, wrap a little sweet, the old lady loves sweet straw bread."
"I love sweets, too!" Ye Chenghu ate the salty filling, and didn't forget to order a sweet one.
Lin Xiuqing ignored her eldest son, "Then you will go to the shop to buy some peanuts and crush them, and the sugar is available at home."
Ye Yaodong nodded.
