Chapter 855 Dumplings
Chapter 850 Six Zongzi

The other three dragon boats arrived in a blink of an eye, each grabbing a bundle of grass.

The people on the shore shouted frantically, such an authentic dragon boat race is really enjoyable to watch.

Arthur looked at the bare rope on the green shed, and said to Wang Meixian who was happily teasing Fubao: "Mei... Meixian, our operation seems to be wrong..."

Wang Meixian raised her head: "What?"

Alimu pointed to the drummer on each dragon boat who was distributing the grass to the hands: "Grandpa Qingcao will distribute the grass to everyone. Did we forget to pick a bundle of grass?"

At this time, I heard the sound of a loudspeaker coming from the river: "This dragon boat race, the winning team is the Lijiagou Dragon Boat Team!"

Wang Meixian cried with a "wow": "Don't do it! Obviously we are number one!"

After everyone on the dragon boat dipped the green grass in the river water to wash their bodies, then threw the grass into the river. After performing the custom of timidity, the four dragon boats assembled on the floating platform, and Liang Huili handed over the umbrella cover of Luo Qi representing the leader to Huanbang uncle.

Uncle Huanbang laughed and put the big umbrella on the bow of the boat.

Li Junge's dragon boat bypassed Wang Meixian's small dragon boat. Wang Dongfang picked up the rope in the water and hung it on the stern, dragged a group of dejected children, and the four dragon boats rowed towards Lijiagou together.

The celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival in Pan'ao Town has begun.

The duck cage on the floating platform was opened, and a group of wild geese with their flight feathers cut off were released.

This is a duck release event, whoever snatches it counts. There are already tourists wearing swimming trunks waiting by the water, and at this time, they immediately rushed into the water screaming.

But wild geese are not so easy to get along with. Even if the flying feathers are cut off, it is not so easy to catch them. There are a lot of jokes, and there is a lot of laughter on the river beach.

There are also quite a few people carrying swimming rings on their backs and going into the water, it would be hell if they could grab the nimble wild geese!
The most nervous thing was Cousin Jing, Xiao Qi and Tang Jun, standing on the patrol boat and looking around, for fear that the tourists would be in danger.

Tourists who are not so confident in water skills can actually participate in the game of catching wild geese with a sliding pole.

A wooden post that has been fully pushed is placed horizontally on a wooden frame of the floating platform like a diving board, with the front end sticking out of the water, and a wild goose cage is hung on the pole.

Whoever can walk over the post to take down the cage, the duck is his.

However, the wooden pillars were also oiled and slippery. Nine out of ten tourists who tried it were killed by dumplings. Occasionally, one or two of them succeeded, and they immediately cheered with wild geese.

The first-class difficulty again is throwing zongzi.

The two girls threw zongzi from the boat to the crowded place in the water, and after the zongzi fell into the water, they were looted by the people in the water.

The zongzi are all raw, and if you grab them, you have to go to the hotel to process them. There is a long brown leaf on each zongzi. The person who picks up the zongzi can hold the brown leaf and continue without worrying about not being able to hold it in his hand.

Some tourists will tie the zongzi leaves on the belt of their swimming trunks. In fact, these are the smart ghosts. Those who grab the zongzi with peace of mind will actually gain more than those who are greedy for wild geese.

But it’s troublesome. Zongzi is also heavy. After a while, some people can’t stay in the water anymore. They have to go back to the shore and hand over the Zongzi to relatives and friends for safekeeping, and then come down to grab the second wave.

As for the fish that slipped through the net that were not caught, they sank unsteadily to the bottom of the water, even if they were offering sacrifices to Qu Yuan and his old man.

This is a water-friendly festival full of joy for the Chinese people. It has been popular for thousands of years, but now it cannot be done because of various reasons.

Safety issues, pollution issues, cost issues...

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the water pollution in many places, the rice dumplings were picked up by Qu Yuan at the bottom of the water, and after eating them, he would probably go crazy again.

……

The dragon boat stopped at Jiuchangju, four teams, oh no five teams held a tooth sacrifice in the Fengnian Douwan.

Li Junge asked Wang Meixian to sit next to him: "Women don't give way to men. Meixian is really amazing! But can you return the whistle to Uncle Erpi first?"

Wang Meixian threw the whistle to him: "You're coaxing the kids again!"

You are just a kid, okay?Li Junge quickly said: "This is really not true. For example, you trained the little grays in Xijiaoxi yesterday afternoon, and you brought back so many red bayberries and wild sweet potatoes to cover yourself. I didn't expect this. When I was your age, how could Everything is caught by my mother."

Wang Meixian felt embarrassed all of a sudden, she giggled and said, "Uncle Erpi, have you guessed it all?"

Li Junge said: "It's all after the fact and I can't guess it. Uncle Erpi's IQ is too bad."

After finishing speaking, he said to Wang Meixian: "It's good to have a competitive mentality. It's a good thing to strive for the top in everything. But it's not enough to always be tricky. Some things can be bypassed without tricks. You need to talk to you more about this. Auntie should learn, and Arthur is also your role model."

"Even if you are the first to cross the finish line and succeed in 'Duo Qing', this No.1 cannot be given to you, because you are not relying on your own strength. As far as this competition is concerned, you have already violated the rules."

"However, Uncle Erpi is also very happy for your cooperation spirit. You are full of wisdom and good at planning; Alimu is rich in knowledge and draws inferences from one example; Arthur is good at discovering and reminding in time; Yusong is quick to respond and solve it easily; Xiaobai is not chaotic , controlled properly; other people work together to support each other..."

"These are all your advantages. The key is that when all the advantages are added together to work towards a goal, the achievement is amazing. Have you noticed? When you surpassed us, Grandpa Huanbang was frightened." Already!"

Wang Huanbang said with a smile: "Our children in Lijiagou are spiritual! Don't talk about me, among the four boats, which boat is not in trouble?"

Everyone laughed, Li Junge said: "So, one reward and one punishment, the reward is heavy and the punishment is light, do you have any opinions?"

The kids all shook their heads to express that they had no opinion.

Li Junge said: "Well, the punishment is that you clean up the little dragon boat and carry it into our boat tent in Lijiagou. The reward is Kuiyuan's Qiluo umbrella, which you carry into the village activity center .After all, you run faster than us, and you have earned honor for the village. How about the elders cheering you up and shouting to clear the way?"

The adults applauded and applauded, but the brats became shy instead.

When the drinks came, Uncle Sangao liked Ali Mu the most, so he first ordered an exquisite food box of beef, chicken and fish, and then everything else.

Then it naturally entered the wine competition session. More than 200 men gathered in one place, and the atmosphere was not lively.

This group of people is the absolute backbone of the two townships and one village. Li Junge has wiped out all of them today, with more than 20 tables walking a full circle, showing the pride of Lijiagou people.

After three hours of drinking, the rest of the team went home. People from Lijiagou beat gongs and drums, children carried umbrellas, and people from the dragon boat team staggered forward with shoulders and backs.

There's no way, a group of people have been pumped to the point of confusion.

Si Xingzhun also came out of Jiuchangju. Although the baby has resumed her clothes, the impression she left on everyone is too deep. Everyone still thinks that this baby is a big beauty without makeup.

Especially when compared with a group of Hei Shacai in the Dragon Boat Team, they are really like the jade girls in Yaochi.

Everyone was laughing and joking with Si Xingzhun, who annoyed him by saying, "Tomorrow I will shave my head bald!"

Uncle Huanbang said: "But that's also a nun..." Immediately, everyone was amused again.

Granny Wang stood up to cheer up Si Xingzhun: "I just can't get used to you stupid old men! What's wrong with this? What's wrong with Xiaozhun who looks like a girl? Tell me if you want a girlfriend! Second Zhun It's like the rhododendrons that are all over the mountain now, they only bloom but don't bear fruit..."

Si Xingzhun was so embarrassed: "Grandma Wang, you got the point wrong..."

A group of people noisily sent the big umbrella cover into the village activity center, where there were a row of trophies and certificates.

What are "Excellent Grassroots Party Organization", "Advanced Unit of Tertiary Industry", "Gold Award for Volunteer Service Project", "Excellent Enterprise for Sustainable Development", "Integrity Management Enterprise"...

All kinds of things are hung all over the wall.

Uncle Huanbang asked a few young men to bring a socket for a sunshade, and plugged the big umbrella cover up: "This is the most exciting!"

A group of people nodded again and again, thinking that what he said made sense.

Li Junge didn't bother to argue, and said with a smile: "Later, Ayin will send the bonus to everyone on WeChat. This Dragon Boat Festival is well done, and Grandma Wang initiated it. Brother Shaoping and Houwa directors, Uncle Huanbang and Uncle Dongfang, and others Uncle A Chong and Uncle Bamboo Carpenter, everyone who contributes has a share anyway, and it is recorded in the system, why don't we break up first? The rice dumplings at home haven't been eaten yet!"

For rice dumplings to be delicious, the key is to have them soft and glutinous. It is best to press them out of a pressure cooker. They must be pressed until the rice is soft and glutinous, which is not much better than glutinous rice cakes. Then it will have a special flavor.

If it is the usual cooking method, it will take more than two hours.

Regardless of the cooking method, first, there must be enough zongzi, and second, the zongzi should be served after the water is boiled. Many people have eaten zongzi for a lifetime, but they have never eaten really delicious ones. The table is gone, and this ancient delicacy is in vain.

This year, grandma's zongzi has several flavors, ham stuffed, marinated hoof stuffed, miscellaneous bean stuffed, and white zongzi.

The soft and glutinous white rice dumplings are the most popular. The thick brown sugar juice and the soybean powder made from fried soybeans are loved by adults and children.

Director Dong spoke again: "It's ridiculous to say it. I have eaten rice dumplings for decades, and I only learned how to cook them when I came to your house. I said that such a famous delicacy should not be the one I ate before. I feel, it turns out that well-cooked rice dumplings taste so delicious!"

Tong Yi smiled and said: "Don't talk about zongzi, many dishes have overturned my understanding. Take chicken soup as an example. It turns out that chicken soup is boiled instead of boiled. The clear chicken soup is the top grade."

Li Fangyu was happy: "Little boy, you try to use the white-cut chicken on the market when you go back to Shu? That kind of chicken is only suitable for making cola chicken wings. Let me tell you that if you use Lijiagou's method to make it, you will end up with a pot Boiled water! In addition to the method, the material is the decisive factor!"

Tong Yi said: "Oh, won't it be troublesome if you want to eat when you return to Shu?"

While peeling the rice dumplings for Ayin, Li Junge said, "It's so troublesome there. Now there are several big supermarkets in Lijiagou Xiaojiao Wuji Shudu. They are all vacuum-packed, and the Agricultural University is developing self-heating cans. Just pull the rope every now and then, and it will be a can of boiling hot chicken soup in a few minutes, so don’t worry.”
