1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Dad, why don't ducks and geese fear rain?"

While they were chatting, Doudou, who was lying by the window watching the excitement, climbed over from the kang.

"Because their feathers are not afraid of water, so they are not afraid of such a small rain. Come and help dad pick leeks, and then we will make leek dumplings at noon." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Dad, how much meat should be put in the leek dumplings?" Doudou asked curiously.

"Little greedy girl, it won't taste good if you put meat. Dad puts some eggs and then some shrimp skin. You can eat it when the time comes, and your little belly will definitely be full." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Yeah, Doudou wants to eat."

The little guy nodded his head seriously, and then came over to help Chen Tiezhu pick leeks seriously.

"Doudou is really different every day." He Jianguo said with emotion.

"It's getting more and more worrying. The little guy doesn't care about anything else and does whatever he wants." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Dad, Doudou doesn't want to make trouble. He just likes to play." The little guy retorted.

After saying that, he frowned, "Dad, it's raining. What will the big tiger and the big leopard do? They don't have raincoats or houses?"

"They are not afraid of these small rains. When the rain gets heavy, they will find a place to shelter from the rain." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Dad, what if they can't find it?" Doudou asked again.

"Don't worry, they will definitely find it. The mountain is their territory. They are much more familiar with it than we are." Chen Tiezhu said helplessly.

Seeing the little guy asking questions, He Jianguo was also very happy.

In fact, making fried chive boxes is not that complicated. The most critical point is mainly in the filling.

After all, the water content of chives is not small. If the order of adding oil and salt is wrong, it is easy to produce soup because the water in the chives has been taken out by the salt.

After chatting for a while, the chives were picked, and Chen Tiezhu began to mix the dough and stuffing.

When it was time to open the package, Doudou frowned, "Dad, isn't this a big dumpling?"

"It's similar to a big dumpling, but we bake it." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Doudou will help Dad later. Dad will make chive boxes, and Doudou will bake them for Dad. After they are baked, Doudou can eat them. They are very delicious."

"There is no meat or shrimp in them, just some shrimp skin." Doudou said with a little disdain.

"All the shrimps in our family have gone into your stomach. Where are the shrimps left?" Chen Tiezhu said helplessly.

Doudou grinned and laughed. If there are no shrimps, then there are no shrimps. Who told me that I had eaten them all.

Chive boxes are much easier to make than dumplings. After making some, Chen Tiezhu directly heated up the pot and started to bake chive boxes.

But he didn't bake them, but gave them to Doudou.

Doudou is also very familiar with such small jobs. He has no problem making pancakes, and even less problem making chive dumplings.

"This guy, Doudou is really good now."

Looking at Doudou making chive dumplings in a grand manner, He Jianguo said with emotion.

"Grandpa Jianguo, Doudou has always been good." The little guy nodded his head seriously, and his mouth was full of joy.

The unpleasant mood brought by the rain finally disappeared.

Our requirements are not high, as long as someone praises us.

Seeing that the chive dumplings in the pot are almost done, he grabbed a knife and shoveled down, and with a quick flip of his wrist, the chive dumplings were turned over.

He Jianguo didn't know how to praise him. Many adults couldn't compare to the little guy's current skills.

"Dad, is this cooked?"

After baking for a while, the little guy asked.

"It should be almost done. This thing is easy to bake. Serve it out." Chen Tiezhu said casually.

"Yeah."

Doudou responded happily.

Grab the knife and wave it again. You don't need to look at the basin carefully. With a shovel and a flick, the chive dumplings fall into the basin one by one.

"No, I don't dare to watch Doudou cook next time. Your aunt can't cook so well." He Jianguo said with emotion.

"Haha, my eldest daughter is amazing. Let's try one first and see how it tastes." Chen Tiezhu said happily.

"Yeah, try one." Doudou echoed and pursed his lips.

Although there is no meat or big shrimp. But this is baked by myself, and the greedy nature is out again.

On the contrary, He Jianguo is a little embarrassed. At such an old age, he hasn't eaten by the stove for a long time.

Chen Tiezhu doesn't care about that. With his precious eldest daughter,Like women, they are more or less greedy.

The crispy and soft dough, the rich flavor of chives, and the taste of the chive box made him a little intoxicated.

"It's really fresh, the ground sprout chives are really delicious, and the chives in the future will definitely not taste like this." After tasting it carefully, Chen Tiezhu sighed.

"Yeah, it's delicious."

Doudou, who also tasted it on the side, nodded her head vigorously.

She really didn't expect that it could be so delicious without meat. Why bake it, just eat it.

"This thing is really best to eat it at any time. Big melon and nettle are also good to eat. After eating the ground sprout chives, other dishes will come down slowly." Chen Tiezhu said.

"I'll dig up some more motherwort and shepherd's purse later. They'll taste good if you blanch them in water and mix them together. In spring, we have to eat some spring ingredients."

"Yeah, let's eat spring."

Doudou agreed again, and then continued to eat the chive dumplings.

Whether it tastes good or not depends on Doudou. If she can lower her head and eat it, the taste will not be bad.

"Doudou, you continue to fry, and Dad will go and call Grandpa Han." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Dad, why don't you let Dahei go?" Doudou asked curiously.

"I dare not let him go. If he gets wet, he will smell fishy." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"You and Doudou fry, I'll go and call." He Jianguo said with a smile.

"It's nothing, just a few steps away. My eldest daughter is also very good at cooking now." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Doudou is good, Doudou is really good."

The little guy nodded happily, then poured oil into the pot and continued to fry the chive dumplings.

He Jianguo didn't know what to say. Doudou is really good, and it's not as simple as saying it.

When it was the first pot, it was Chen Tiezhu who helped put the chive dumplings into the pot. Now the little guy is also very skillful when doing it himself.

Just like what I thought just now, Doudou is so good that I don't know how to praise him.
