25 Carry the brothers
People in the yard came over one after another, and when they saw the adjusted dumpling filling, they all took the initiative to help make dumplings.
I want to be a part of the lively atmosphere.
By the way, let's take a look at the depth of Yunxi's cooking skills, whether it is embroidery boxing, it is useless.
From the beginning of the door, everyone did not understand why they were looking for a young little cook, and after half a morning, although they did not eat.
Just looking at the skill of knife work and preparation, as well as the prepared dumpling filling, although I haven't eaten the cooked food, I can smell the aroma of the dumpling filling.
Just the strength of this adjusted dumpling filling, I think this chef is not bad, but I don't know if the cooking skills are okay.
According to the custom of Qitao Boben Village, dumplings should be eaten for children to hold a banquet, which is the so-called welcome dumplings and noodles.
The child is the arrival of a new life, so the day before the feast, the helper stays to eat, which is also called Kaiximen.
What Kaiximen eats today is dumplings.
There are many people eating, everyone helps together, and the kitchen is now more lively, kneading dough, rolling dumpling skins, and making dumplings.
The appearance of dumplings has a variety of different techniques in the hands of different aunts.
Some are ingot-style, the most are ordinary big-bellied dumplings, and there are wheat ear styles, and there are many patterns.
The wrappers are rolled out in the middle and have thin edges, so that when you pinch them, the filling will stretch out the belly part, and the folds on the edges will not be too thick because they overlap, so that the taste will not be affected.
On the kitchen side, people happily wrapped dumplings, chatting about the sky, and the fragrance of pork slowly diffused out, smelling the fragrance of braised meat, and a few of the aunts and aunts who made dumplings were gurgling.
A few aunts who called their stomachs blushed a little and said:
"It is said that when I eat in the morning, I will smell the fragrance of this braised meat, and I can't help it."
"The smell of meat is fragrant, and so am I, I can't help but smell it."
The other aunt smiled, swallowed her saliva, and said:
"Don't say it, I can't help but drool, I've been quietly swallowing my saliva for a long time."
When they heard this, they all started laughing.
The people in the courtyard who helped to decorate the scene also smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen and were all intoxicated.
Under the eaves, the little brother held on to the ladder and said:
"Hey, brother, you said, where did this Taozi brother find the chef, this smell, I don't have the heart to work."
On the top of the ladder, there was the eldest brother who was receiving the lantern wire, holding pliers and tape in his hand, looking at the younger brother below who only cared about the smell of rice, and he also smelled the smell of this rice.
So he put the tape and pliers in his trouser pocket, slowly sat down in the middle of the top of the ladder, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said:
"You foodie, I'm still working on it, you give me a good ladder, just like a widow who lost her son and you look around, you can't hold the ladder well."
Hearing the eldest brother scolding from above, knowing that the eldest brother must be hungry too, he will complain that he is affected.
There is also the fact that he himself has to show the posture of his eldest brother, taking over the work of installing lanterns, and pulling himself.
Morning came to the present, grinding and chirping, there are a total of 6 places to install lanterns, all under the eaves, carrying the ladder and holding the tool bag, the eldest brother has not yet started to dry, the tools can hold more than 10 lanterns.
The work is absolutely sufficient, I work as a small worker carrying a ladder all over the yard, the eldest brother is good, install a lantern, rework twice, and install 3 in the morning.
I am so good at kung fu, and I am hungry even if I have a lot of strength, and with this meat fragrance, I have long wanted to eat.
This ladder is very stable, and there is no need to hold on to it at all, but the eldest brother doesn't want to, so he lets himself hold on to the ladder, afraid of falling down.
Looking at the anxious eldest brother on the ladder, he raised his head and grinned, and said with a smile:
"I know, give you a good support, you just do the work, I can feel your legs shaking, what are you shaking, I will support you."
Looking at the brother who looked up and spoke, his heart was even more angry, and he felt that it was very difficult to install the lantern on it, and the younger brother was good, standing below and saying cool words, looking at him looking up and grinning, revealing a mouthful of steel teeth, and the eldest brother on the ladder of anger scolded:
"You know that my legs are shaking, and I have been talking about eating and eating, distracting me, you are making me distracted, you are talking about eating, I will go down and unload your steel teeth for you first, do you hear?"
Seeing that the eldest brother on the ladder was already anxious, he quickly closed his mouth, thinking about what this had to do with my steel teeth, but he didn't dare to say more, so he said:
"Well, I know, you hurry up and pretend, and we'll start eating soon."
After hearing the younger brother say this, the eldest brother on the top of the ladder continued to stand up and load the lantern.
In the kitchen, the sour soup dumplings need to be seasoned first, and the dumplings have been cooked.
Yunxi is in another basin, has prepared the ingredients for the sour soup dumplings, and finally poured hot oil, let the hot oil completely blend the flavor of garlic and chili pepper, sesame and green onion, and bring out the fragrance, pour in the aged vinegar and light soy sauce, add oyster sauce sugar, chicken powder and salt, and stir well.
If you want to eat sour soup dumplings, even the soup with dumplings is scooped into a bowl, and when you add the prepared sour soup, those who want to eat dry dumplings only scoop dumplings, and eat them with a small bowl dipped in sour soup.
After the dumplings were cooked, Qi Taobo, his daughter-in-law, and his father all came out to eat, afraid that the children would cry, Qi Taobo's mother stayed in the house, coaxed the children first, and let them eat first.
Yunxi also made cold vegetables, vermicelli and shredded tofu skin, mixed with spinach and bean sprouts, and crushed peanuts, mixed in a whole pot.
There were 4 tables for the helpers, and they all sat down early.
Only the two brothers who installed the lantern had not finished their work, and they were talking under the eaves.
Probably the younger brother wanted to leave, but the eldest brother didn't let him go.
The dumplings in sour soup are served by themselves, and they hold the bowl to serve the dumplings and soup.
If you don't eat dumplings in sour soup, there are dumplings that have been fished out and other sauces on the table.
Eat a bite of cold vegetables first, the mouth makes a crunchy sound, the taste of cold vegetables is crisp, there is no extra soup, the freshness and sound of bean sprouts, the smoothness of vermicelli and the strength of elastic pressure, the crispness of crushed peanuts and a faint sweet fragrance, that is called a refreshing taste.
People who eat cold salad, after eating the first in their mouths, this crisp texture makes people have a great appetite, and there are no dumplings in the bowl, but a bowl of cold salad first, and the cold salad is eating dumplings first.
At this time, Qi Taobo's father was holding a bowl and eating dumplings, and the brothers who used to shout to take the lantern also ate together.
Qi Taobo's father saw that his two nephews were still working there, how could this work, such a delicious dish, what a pity to miss it.
The two people who sat at the dinner table and ate the food instantly lost the trouble they had just arguing, and laughed unconsciously.
may also feel that the two of them have achieved nothing, and they didn't connect the 6 lanterns in the morning, and the uncle who had dinner went to invite.
The food is really the best peacemaker.
Looking at the dumplings on the table, they are white and fat, neatly arranged, and they are delicious when they look at it.
Pick up a dumpling with a fat belly, put it in a bowl, and as soon as the chopsticks are opened, the filling juice will slowly leak out, and the fragrance will float out instantly.
The fragrance of celery in the dumplings, combined with the firmness of the meat filling, exudes a seductive taste.
When you take a bite into your mouth, the juice splashes, the saltiness and sweetness are moderate, the crispness of celery, coupled with the tenderness of pork, the taste is in every part of the mouth, and every small tongue coating on the tongue is absorbing the umami of dumplings.
Eating sour soup dumplings with a mouthful of sour and spicy soup, the moment you swallow, it stimulates all your taste buds.
Some are just eating dumplings dry, not dipped in any sauce, after eating dumplings in a bowl of dumpling soup, that is called a satisfaction, in order to have some cold dishes, this meal is content.
Qi Taobo's mother, who was watching her grandson in the house, heard the sounds outside, and the movement of eating, and also smelled the fragrance of dumplings.
I couldn't help but hold the child, walked to the glass, looked out the window every once in a while, and saw if anyone had finished eating, and came over to replace myself.
After watching it back and forth more than ten times, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I called my wife and complained:
"I know that if you eat, you don't want to think about it, where am I."
Qi Taobo's father received a call from his wife, so he was so busy eating dumplings that he almost forgot that there was still an old woman at home watching his grandson, and he hadn't eaten yet.
Quickly hung up the phone and went to the kitchen to bring two big bowls, a bowl of dumplings, and a bowl of cold dishes into the room.
Qi Taobo's mother, who was holding the child, was instantly happy when she saw her wife bringing food in, and the sadness on her face dissipated.
His eyes were only staring at the two big bowls, and he was already hungry by the smell of meat, and with the taste of the dumplings, he couldn't wait to eat the dumplings and cold dishes.
