Chapter 260: Happy Winter Solstice~

Wang Chunxia looked at Jiang Ning like this and couldn't help but smile happily.

Jiang Ning has entered the late stage of pregnancy, and the weather is cold in winter, and the whole person is becoming more and more lazy.

She spread a thick cotton cushion on her chair, and often sat down and didn't bother to get up and move again.

On the stove next to it was an enamel cup, as well as a few golden oranges and longan.

It's all baked hot in the oven.

Jiang Ning only needs to reach out and get it.

There is food and drink, and life is not worried.

"Sister Chunxia, is it snowing outside again?"

"It's down, it's bigger than yesterday, and I guess it won't stop at night. It's cold outside, so don't go out. ”

"Uh-huh, I listen to you guys and never go out. Why don't you sit down and eat oranges? This orange is sweet. ”

Wang Chunxia stood by the door and shook the snowflakes on her body.

Then he walked towards Jiang Ning.

But instead of sitting down to roast the fire, she took out a bag of things from her bosom.

Wang Chunxia had a happy smile on her face, looked at Jiang Ning and said happily.

"Sister Ning, didn't you say before that you southerners eat soup dumplings on the winter solstice. You see what this is? ”

Jiang Ning was originally lazily leaning on his body.

But as soon as he heard "soup dumplings", his eyes suddenly lit up, and he subconsciously licked his lips, and the whole person came to the spirit.

She sat up straight and whispered.

"Is it glutinous rice flour?"

"Yes! It's glutinous rice flour! ”

Wang Chunxia didn't even open the cloth pocket, Jiang Ning had already guessed what was inside.

In this poor and remote place, it is already very difficult for Yang Rui to eat a few bites of millet porridge, let alone the more expensive glutinous rice noodles.

"Sister Chunxia, where did you get this?"

"You don't care about it, anyway, now the glutinous rice flour is available. But how to make this dumpling? I won't, and I want you to teach me. ”

"No problem, it's not difficult to make dumplings, it's very simple."

Jiang Ning propped up his waist and stood up from his chair.

She was so close that she could see how big the military coat on her body was.

It was the old coat that Qin Jiulie had worn.

Big and long.

Wearing it on Jiang Ning, the long hem of his clothes was about to touch the ground.

But Jiang Ning always felt that there was an aura that belonged to Qin Jiulie on this dress.

And only such a wide dress can hide her round belly.

……

This Wang Chunxia just came on the front foot, and Yang Rui on the back foot also came.

Recently, the heavy snow has closed the mountain, and Hongxing Elementary School has temporarily closed classes, and it will not be able to reopen until the snow melts in the spring next year.

Yang Rui has nothing to do at home alone, and she no longer likes to read those sour books.

When I am alone, I always think of Zhao Shuisheng who was on the front line.

When you think about it, it's easy to become cranky.

So she also likes to run to Jiangning's house, sometimes staying for a day, and sometimes even staying directly for the night.

That night.

She saw Jiang Ning take off her shoes and socks, revealing her swollen feet, and she knew how great a pregnant woman was.

This is to use your own life to give birth to the next generation.

But when Jiang Ning asked her, even if she knew that it would become like this, would she still be willing to have children?

Yang Rui nodded without thinking.

Men have their own responsibilities and battlefields, and women have special missions that even men can't do.

Wait for Yang Rui to come.

There were three people in the kitchen.

Jiangning's small food class has started again.

The first thing to do is the filling of the gnocchi.

The first choice has to be a sweet black sesame white sugar filling.

First of all, the black sesame seeds should be stir-fried over low heat.

After frying, the black sesame seeds will crack slightly, and they will have a special baking aroma.

Then the fried black sesame seeds are put into a stone mortar and further crushed.

During this period.

You can add white sugar in turn.

The fine white sugar is also crushed with the black sesame seeds.

The syrup of white sugar is mixed with the fat of mashed black sesame seeds.

Loose and small granules will be turned into sticky balls.

These steps are all done with a stone mortar, and although it looks light, it is actually a work of strength.

So Wang Chunxia is working the side.

The outer layer of the dumplings is all glutinous rice.

It's similar to kneading the dough, digging a pit in the center of the powder, adding water to the pit, and kneading the water and the powder together.

However, glutinous rice flour is particularly absorbent, and water must be added in small amounts many times.

And you can't use hot water.

When hot water is used, the glutinous rice flour is blanched, and the taste is completely different.

"Xiaorui, when you first knead it, you will feel a little sticky, but don't be afraid, continue to knead it for a while, and when it is kneaded, it will naturally form a ball."

Yang Rui listened to Jiang Ning's advice, slowly adding water little by little, and kneading the dough non-stop.

After a while.

The glutinous rice flour is in a ball.

It was round and snow-white, like fresh snow had just fallen outside the house.

After the outer and inner fillings are completed, the next step is to wrap the dumplings.

Take a small piece from the glutinous rice flour and rub it in the palm of your hand.

Then apply both hands firmly and gently flatten.

Then take a small piece of black sesame and white sugar filling, also knead it into the shape of a small ball, and put it on the flattened glutinous rice flour filling.

Then the outer stuffing carefully wraps the inner filling and puts it in the palm of your hand to form a round one.

In this way, the snow-white and meaty dumplings are completed.

"Sister Ning, how can making this dumpling be the same as pinching a snowman. When we have snowball fights in the winter, we do snowballs. ”

"It's probably because it doesn't snow in the south, so I can only make dumplings and enjoy it."

Jiang Ning explained in a childlike way.

After Wang Chunxia heard this, she really believed it and nodded seriously.

"Sister Ning, what you said makes sense. Is this what is missing? ”

Yang Rui saw Wang Chunxia with such a serious appearance, and she really believed what Jiang Ning said, and laughed out loud.

She smiled.

Jiang Ning and Wang Chunxia also laughed together.

In the small kitchen in winter, there is a lot of laughter.

It was at this time.

The door was in again.

It's Liu Xiangmei, and the other sisters-in-law.

Liu Xiangmei took her two little girls and shouted loudly.

"Sister Ning, I brought dumplings, the dumplings that just came out of the pot, the cabbage and pork filling, and they are still hot."

"I also brought it, it's pork stewed vermicelli, it's a big pot, we must have enough to eat."

"I cooked eight treasure rice. Although I haven't arrived in Laba yet, it's the same if I ate it early......"

The sisters-in-law are all holding things in their hands, and they are full.

The room, which had been empty before, was suddenly filled with heat and fragrance.
