Chapter 39 Jujube Cake

These days, Su Changqing has a very comfortable life, and it is now mid to late September in autumn, and the sour dates in the mountains are about to ripen.

Su Changqing used to stay in the nursing home, and he hadn't eaten much of this for many years, but he happened to be interested after getting off work today, and he went to the mountains with the leaves.

It's just that he didn't know where to pick up sour dates, so he had to go to Huanhu Village to ask his acquaintances.

Because of the leaves, Su Changqing didn't perform light skills this time, put the leaves behind, rode a tricycle, locked the door, and went directly down the mountain.

Su Changqing lives in the mountains, the temperature in the mountains is lower than that under the mountains, he wears a little thick, he wears almost 2 pieces, and he is wrapped in a thin sweater. It's just that because I'm going down the mountain, the wind is blowing on my face, and it's a little cold.

The leaves shrank in front of him, and most of the wind could not blow on him, and he had a lot of hair, but it was not cold.

The tricycle had been driving for a while, and the shadow of the village had gradually enlarged in front of him, so Su Changqing stopped the car.

Locked the car, the leaves jumped down from above, followed Su Changqing, and walked forward.

In Huanhu Village, Su Changqing didn't know many people, and the best relationship was with Wang Pingzhao's family.

Wang Pingzhao has been married for many years, has a child under his knees, and does small business or something on weekdays, and his life is also chic.

There is a lot of land in the countryside, and everyone's house is considered to be large. When Su Changqing arrived at Wang Pingzhao's house, the door of Wang's house was open, and the daughter-in-law of the Wang family sat outside peeling oranges and eating there.

"Yo, uncle, why are you here?"

Because his man has a good relationship with this old man Su, as his woman, the daughter-in-law of the Wang family is also very familiar with Su Changqing. Now that he saw Su Changqing coming, he hurriedly said hello.

The daughter-in-law of the Wang family is called Zhang Cuiping, and not only did she not dislike Su Changqing, who often came and went with little courtesy, but still spoke enthusiastically.

"Cui Ping, is Ping Zhao here?"

"Here, I'm going to pick sour dates in the house!"

Su Changqing nodded, "Oh, okay, I just happened to be going, I'll call him!"

While speaking, Su Changqing walked into the house. Wang Pingzhao's house is a three-story white brick building, with a courtyard at the back. Su Changqing knew that Wang Pingzhao's car was usually parked in the back, so when he came over now, he went directly to the courtyard behind.

Wang Pingzhao was busy inside, and he didn't notice that someone was coming.

"Ping Zhao. Su Changqing spoke out as he watched him put a red plastic bucket on the tricycle.

"Ah, ah, uncle?" Wang Pingzhao turned his head and was a little surprised to see Su Changqing, "Why are you here?"

Su Changqing smiled, "Pick up sour dates." ”

Wang Pingzhao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Okay, let's go over together." ”

After getting the things, Wang Pingzhao said hello to his daughter-in-law, and the two rode out of the village on a tricycle.

Su Changqing didn't know the road, so Wang Pingzhao rode in front. In order to take care of Su Changqing, Wang Pingzhao also turned the horsepower of the car smaller.

After riding for a while, the two stopped. Because the jujube tree was in the mountains, the two parked the tricycle on the side of the road and locked it. The two of them each carried a red plastic bucket and went up the mountain.

The road on the mountain is not very easy to walk, Su Changqing followed behind Wang Pingzhao, supported the bamboo with his hand, and with the slight internal force in his body, he followed Wang Pingzhao with luck.

Wang Pingzhao knew that he couldn't walk fast, so he slowed down and waited for him, and pulled him from time to time.

After walking like this for more than ten minutes, they came to a wild sour jujube tree.

This jujube tree is quite large, and there are not many traces of sour jujube on it. The blue-red fruits hang on the branches, and it looks like a pleasant feeling.

"Isn't there anyone picking it up now?" Su Changqing looked at the many sour dates on the trees on the ground, and was a little surprised.

"yes. Wang Pingzhao nodded, "They were all picked up in October, and we came early, but now we can also eat sour dates." ”

Some of the fruit on the trees was ripe, and when the wind blew it, it fell to the ground. Su Changqing now has light skills, although it is easy to go up the tree, but now that someone is coming with him, he can't expose the fact that he has light skills.

Fortunately, there are a lot of sour dates on the ground, even if it is not enough, Wang Pingzhao kicks on the sour date tree, and he can always drop a lot of sour dates.

After picking up about one-third of the barrel, Su Changqing didn't dare to continue loading. If he reloaded, the bucket would be too heavy for him to carry back. Besides, there is only one person and one dog at home, so there is no need to get too much to eat.

Although Su Changqing only picked up some, Wang Pingzhao picked up most of the buckets.

Good guy, his strength is quite large, looking at the appearance on his face, it seems that he is very relaxed with half a bucket of sour dates in both hands, but the green tendons on his hands are bursting up.

On the other hand, Su Changqing couldn't do it, and it was a little difficult to carry the small bucket of sour dates.

"Uncle, I'll help you carry it. Wang Pingzhao saw Su Changqing like this and said humbly.

"No, no, no. Su Changqing hurriedly waved his hand. Although Wang Pingzhao's face couldn't see how tired he was, the green tendons on his hands could completely show that the things in his hands were actually very heavy.

The two finally carried two buckets of sour dates to the tricycle, and then parted ways.

"Uncle, are you coming to my house for dinner?"

Wang Pingzhao greeted warmly.

"No need. Su Changqing waved his hand, "I've bought all the dishes." ”

When the other party heard this, he didn't force it, turned his head, and rode back on a tricycle.

It's still early, and it's only been about an hour since I've been busy, so I'm going back now, and I'm still some time away from lunch.

Su Changqing plans to get the sour dates right first, and then go to cook, and after eating a good meal, he will sleep again.

After driving home, Su Changqing entered the door with a bucket of sour dates.

There were a lot of sour dates, so he washed them slightly and put them directly into a large pot of water.

After adding firewood, Su Changqing struck a match, lit a small branch, and placed it on top of the firewood with an iron clip.

The fire soon flared up.

This sour jujube is to burn it until the skin is cracked before it is cooked.

Although Su Changqing hasn't done it for a long time, his methods are not very rusty. After burning the jujubes, he put them all in a basin and carefully peeled and pitted them there.

Shuye squatted next to Su Changqing, not noisy or noisy, looking at him quietly.

Although there are not many sour dates, it also took him 2 hours to peel them.

Rubbing his sore waist, Su Changqing sighed, and slowly stood up with an "oops".

After soaking the sour dates into a puree again, Su Changqing patted the leaves on the head, "Let's go, go and make sour date cakes to eat!"
