Chapter 157: Chopping Peppers
After Ning Qingxi and Wang Xiujuan acted separately, they first found Lai Pozi who was guarding the door, and after explaining the reason to the other party, Lai Pozi brought her little grandson over.
"Sandan, you are sitting here, if you see someone you don't know walking in, you can quickly call your adult, do you hear? Well done, have meat to eat at night! ”
Thinking that there would be meat to eat at night, Sandan sucked the saliva on the side of his mouth and kept nodding.
"Uh-huh! Milk, you can rest assured that I will do something! After speaking, he kept patting his chest and promised.
Ning Qingxi couldn't help laughing, these children love to learn from her, and now they are slipping and talking, like a little adult.
After Lai Pozi finished instructing her grandson, she and Ning Qingxi went to find Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Ding, Mrs. Han and a few other idle mothers-in-law.
Ning Qingxi finished explaining Wang Xiujuan's words, and after giving the order, he was busy with a few dolls on the side.
They were busy for a while, Ning Changrong came back with the team transporting grain, they first unloaded all the grain into an open space, drank a few sips of water, didn't care about resting, and were busy going back to transport grain.
By the time they unloaded the grain on their second trip, the mung bean soup and meat buns had already been prepared, and the mung bean soup had been cooled by the stream.
The grain transporter hurriedly took a sip of mung bean soup and left.
Ning Qingxi took a few mothers-in-law and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.
Several mothers-in-law have done farm work all their lives, and they still have the strength to follow Ning Qingxi with several buckets of meat buns and mung bean soup with a flat shoulder.
Even Ning Qingxi carried a small bamboo basket with a lot of meat sandwich buns on his back.
There is no way, no one is idle in the mountains now, everyone has to work, and they can only carry the meat buns and mung bean soup on their backs.
It's easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, they also carry mung bean soup, and when they go to two-thirds of the way, they meet the grain transport team carrying the grain back, obviously it is a matter of front and back, but the other party is so much faster than them.
The two parties said hello casually, and they were busy with their own things.
By the time they arrived with difficulty, Ma Honglin and the others were ready to start making food.
"Uncle Ma!"
Ning Qingxi took off the basket on his shoulder and walked to Ma Honglin's side.
"Sissy? What are you carrying? ”
Lai Pozi and the others have already been greeted, knowing that these people know the Changrong family, and they also helped them transport food along the way, and repelled many enemies.
Looking at the fierce-looking Ma Honglin, he was not much afraid, but looked around with some curiosity.
Seeing someone cooking on fire, Lai Pozi said, "Don't cook, don't cook." We brought a lot of food with us. ”
Ning Qingxi nodded under Ma Honglin's puzzled gaze.
"Uncle Ma, we brought meat buns and mung bean soup for you to eat, you don't need to make a fire to cook."
Ning Qingxi said as she took out a meat bun from her back basket.
Ma Honglin stretched out his hand to take it, it was still hot, and it should have been sent over as soon as it was ready.
He took a bite of it, "Hmm. ”
Ning Qingxi looked at him expectantly, "What's the matter?" Uncle Ma? ”
Ma Honglin gave a thumbs up, "Incense!" "There's still meat
Ning Qingxi narrowed his eyes with a smile, "This is specially made by a few grandmothers for everyone to eat." As she spoke, she also pointed to Lai Pozi and a few people.
"And the mung bean soup is cool to cool off the heat, you can drink some meat buns after eating."
Ma Honglin nodded, with a heart.
The food he has eaten in the past few days is all tasteless food, and he actually doesn't feel anything, isn't it like this when the army is fighting? But after eating this meat bun, I felt that the food was a little difficult to swallow.
Several soldiers around watched the smell of their general's food, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Ma Honglin waved his hand, "Brothers, you don't have to cook, let's take it yourself." Line me up and pay attention to discipline. ”
Several mothers-in-law were responsible for distributing meat sandwiches, and mung bean soup was placed there, and whoever was thirsty could bring a bowl and scoop it up.
"We brought a lot of meat buns, and the boys will come and get them after eating." Lai Pozi said as she parted.
The meat buns they make are a bit big, and there are more vegetables and less meat in them, so there is no way, and the meat is a little stretched for hundreds of people.
Ma Honglin watched with satisfaction as his brothers lined up to get meat and buns, looking in an orderly manner.
"This thing tastes so good, and the meat?"
"Why didn't I think I could wrap meat in buns? Go back and ask my mother to do it for me. ”
"Why is this thing called a meat bun? Shouldn't it be called steamed meat? ”
"Lao Li, can you also make some meat buns when you cook in the future? It's hard to eat that mush all the time. ”
Lao Li is a man in the army, and he rolled his eyes when he heard this, "I don't like to eat, I don't want to eat." ”
This thing looks simple, he knows that there are a lot of spices when he eats it, they march and fight in the army, and the emphasis is on being convenient and fast, where does he have so much time to make such a delicate meal?
"Hey, it's delicious, I'll go get another one."
"I'll go too."
Ma Honglin and the other soldiers are eating, and Ning Changrong and they are still transporting food.
"Why don't you let them rest and eat something before moving?"
"Uncle Ma, it's okay, the food has been cooked on the mountain, you can go back to eat it early after moving it early, otherwise this grain is put here, we are not sure, and when we finish moving, you can also go back as soon as possible."
Ma Honglin looked at this little girl and spoke, she didn't look like a child at all, independent, assertive, better than their little general Chang Wencheng.
Ning Qingxi took people to deliver the food, and then took people back.
At first, they continued to cook non-stop, and the meat buns were gone, but they made a lot of easy-to-carry cakes for Ma Honglin and them, ready for these people to take to eat on the road.
Ning Qingxi had also seen the marching food that these people ate, except for the pot of paste that couldn't tell what it was, it was a cake that bit and hurt in the cheeks.
Ning Changrong finished transporting the grain again, and sat on the ground panting like a cow, "Everyone drinks water in small sips, don't pour it into me all at once, don't blame me for not reminding me when the time comes." ”
They are now drinking light salt water, and Wang Xiujuan is worried that these people will lose too much salt, so she deliberately took time out of her time to mix a few jars of light salt water.
The others didn't know why they had to drink this water in small sips, but Ning Changrong's consistent prestige made them subconsciously do what the other party said.
The brothers of the Li family have just arrived, so they naturally follow suit.
"Dad, you're almost done, right?"
Ning Changrong nodded, and worked for several hours, mainly because most of the time was spent on the road, "Just move it again." ”
"Can you help take these cakes down when you go down?" This is all we made for Uncle Ma and them to eat on the way back. ”
"Okay, you put it next to here, and take it down when we go down."
"Yo? How can this still have chili sauce? Ning Changrong casually looked through a few bags and found that there were still a few small jars of chopped peppers inside.
