"Ms. Sun, it's still early, you should take your things to your room first! It's not good to pile them up in the main room like this. I understand comrades. You will go to my side to fetch some water later. The hot water in the pot Is it hot? Ask Xiaolu to mix these bowls, chopsticks and basins with hot water, is the noodles ready?" Lin Qingxi asked several times while standing in the yard.

"Not yet, we're sorting out these things, I'll go meet up right away," Aunt Sun said with a embarrassed face, a little embarrassed, the house was too messy, and many of them were a little too busy.

"Then you should tidy up first! Move your clothes and bedding into the house first. The work in the kitchen is a bit urgent, so I have to make the steamed buns quickly, otherwise there will be no staple food at noon," Lin Qingxi said with a smile.

"Okay, we'll be fine soon," Aunt Sun nodded, indicating that she knew it. In fact, she listened to her husband most of the time, and she didn't have any opinions. She was a typical rural woman.

"Then I'll knead the noodles first. Do you want to make steamed buns made of cornmeal and black flour?" Lin Qingxi asked earnestly. Such two-mixed noodles are one of the must-have staple foods for every household in the village.

"Just make Erhe noodles," Aunt Sun said affirmatively. There was not much food at home, and she had always eaten coarse grains before, that is, during this period of time when she was living at Lin Qingxi's house, she only ate fine grains.

"Okay, I see," Lin Qingxi nodded knowingly, turned around and went to work in the kitchen, Xie Lu followed her into the kitchen, and Aunt Sun and the others went to the main room to move things.

In the kitchen, Lin Qingxi took out a large wooden basin, scooped some hot water into it, added some cold water, and then put the bowls and chopsticks, the bowls and soup bowls for serving vegetables in the wooden basin, and let Xie Lu Start washing the dishes with hot water.

Lin Qingxi saw that Xie Lu was doing well, so she went about her work with peace of mind. She scooped two catties of cornmeal and ten catties of black flour and mixed them evenly, then started kneading the dough.

Due to the cold weather, Lin Qingxi put the noodles on the stove to wake up after reconciling them. She first added a few large sticks of firewood to the stove, and seeing that the fire was very good, she turned around and went to clean the steamer. .

After washing and wiping off the water, Lin Qingxi put a white cloth inside the cage drawer, put the cage drawer directly in the pot, and then put the fried vegetables and chopped meat in the bowl, and then put the bowl on the In the cage drawer on the bottom layer, steamed pickled vegetables and meat began to be steamed.

There are three layers in the cage drawer. On the bottom layer, there are six bowls of steamed pork with preserved vegetables, all in large bowls. On the middle layer, there are four bowls of pork with preserved vegetables. The top layer is temporarily empty. Can steam buns.

"Girl Xi, what do you want us to do?" About ten minutes later, Aunt Sun and Zhou Mingmin, mother and daughter, came over. Looking at Lin Qingxi who was so busy and dizzy, the two were very moved and very sorry.

"Mother, sister Mingmin, put Xiaolu's washed dishes and chopsticks in the cupboard, drain the big soup bowls and basins, I will use them later, there are only two jobs to do now, washing cabbage and chopping cabbage Peppers, white peppers are used to stir-fry smoked rabbits, the vermicelli are not soaked yet, I will cut up the sauerkraut right away," Lin Qingxi was not polite, and directly said what she hadn't done yet.

"Okay, it's still early. Uncle Lin and Xiao Lu are going to wash the cabbage. I understand that I am setting the table with Xiao Xu. We will do the rest of the work. You go to the rest meeting," Aunt Sun said while shoving Lin Qingxi went to the main room.

Lin Qingxi couldn't shirk it, so she went directly to the main room to rest. For a while, everyone was working, and only Lin Qingxi was sitting in the main room to rest.

After resting for about half an hour, Lin Qingxi went into the kitchen to work. Mrs. Sun and Zhou Mingmin had just finished what she had told her, and she happened to go in, so she could proceed to the next step.

"Girl Xi, you're here, what do you want us to do?" Aunt Sun wiped the water from her hands, looked up at Lin Qingxi and asked.

"Auntie, let Uncle Lin and Comrade Ming Ming build a temporary stove in the yard! Then go to my house and bring the big iron pot and put it on the temporary stove outside. I want to use the stove outside to stew Pork vermicelli, the iron pot inside has to start cooking," Lin Qingxi was not polite, and directly ordered Aunt Sun and her daughter to start working.

Lin Qingxi's words were imperial edicts to Aunt Sun. After hearing her words, Aunt Sun immediately went to work with Zhou Guilin and his stomach, and Zhou Mingmin was also assigned a task by Lin Qingxi.

Lin Qingxi moved the steamed pork with plum vegetables from the front pot to the back pot to keep warm, then poured all the bone and radish soup stewed last night into the pot to heat up, then put bamboo slices on it, and started steaming the buns.

After steaming the steamed buns, Lin Qingxi took a break for the time being. She leisurely went to the yard to watch Zhou Guilin and his son build the stove, and thought it was quite interesting.

The temporary stove is made of broken bricks or large and small stones and red mud with good viscosity to form a stove shape. Since this stove is to enlarge the iron pot, the stove mouth should be larger, not only can put down the big iron pot but also To make the big iron pot stable on the top of the stove,
After the temporary stove was set up, Zhou Mingming went to Lin's house to bring the big iron pot over. Zhou Guilin lit the temporary stove and put thick firewood on the fire rack, and Lin Qingxi started to work.

Lin Qingxi washed her hands and started to make pork stewed vermicelli. After washing the pot, the pot was heated up, and she directly threw the cut pork into the pot and stir-fried until the moisture of the pork came out, and the pork had its own The grease also came out.

"Sister Min, come here with your clay pot, I'll fill it with oil," Lin Qingxi had just finished speaking when Zhou Mingmin brought the pot from the kitchen.

Lin Qingxi put the clay pot on the stool, waited for the pork to be pressed on the pork with a colander, and then took a shovel and shoveled the excess oil into the pot. This job required not only time but also patience. Fortunately, in the kitchen Steam the steamed buns again, she has plenty of time to do this.

After most of the pork oil is fried, put the hot oil into the earthenware pot, Lin Qingxi puts shallots, ginger slices, star anise and soy sauce in, stir fry a few times, then put the vermicelli in it, add some salt , Lin Qingxi added half of the cold water into it and started to simmer.

"Uncle Lin, take a look at the fire in this pot. It doesn't need a big fire, just simmer slowly on a low heat. After the aroma comes out, you can put the sauerkraut in this pot into it," Lin Qingxi finished. These wiped hands on the smock.

"Okay, just leave these to me," Zhou Guilin nodded, and took the job directly on himself. Seeing that he agreed, Lin Qingxi went straight to the kitchen to work.

She came to the stove, took a pair of chopsticks, lifted the lid of the pot with one hand, and poked the steamed buns with the chopsticks in the other hand. Seeing that the steamed buns were cooked, she held the steamed buns with the chopsticks and put the steamed buns on the top of the back pot. In the drawer on that floor, there was a whole drawer of steamed buns.
