Good farming at the foot of Changbai Mountain

Chapter 148

The daughters-in-law of the Li family and the Zhou family are all about the same age as Xue's, and they are also very quick at work.With the addition of the red lotus, we divided up two meat choppers and two vegetable choppers. It didn't take long for the dumpling stuffing to be ready.Xue Shi and Zhu Shi went to revive their faces and put them on the kang to wake up.

There are too many people, and they cannot be released in one room, so they are divided into two rooms.Fortunately, the Xu family really has several panels, otherwise it would not be enough.Xue's sisters-in-law are all making dumplings in the old lady's house.Li Shi and Zhou Shi are making dumplings in the Westinghouse.

After all, there are many people and strength is great, and it didn't take long to make several dumplings with curtains. "Let's stick to these fillings, put more, and keep enough." Chen said.

The dumplings started at the end of the Youshi period were all finished at the beginning of the Haishi period.Seeing that it was still early, Mrs. Chen ordered all the dumplings to be taken outside, and then everyone kowtowed melon seeds and chatted in the room.

Jinghan went to cook a lot of shanli dumplings, and put Shanli red skin and grape cake in it, "Grandma, mother, third aunt, fourth aunt, fifth aunt, come and drink, this food relieves tiredness, it is very good. "Jinghan poured a bowl for everyone.

Wanting didn't like greasy food when she was pregnant, but this Chinese New Year, she always eats big fish and meat.She didn't feel well after eating in the afternoon. Looking at the purplish red soup in the bowl now, it looks pretty good.Take a sip, sweet and sour, very appetizing. "Jinghan, what are you doing? It's really delicious."

"Fifth aunt, these are some wild fruits on the mountain. I dried them in the autumn, and now I boil them and drink them comfortably. How can our farm have such delicious food? It's just nonsense." Jing Han said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, how did you give birth to such a smart daughter as Jinghan? You can make anything. I don't care, these things have to be decorated for me. I just want to eat something sour all day long." .” Wanting didn’t say anything, and asked Jing Han for these things.

"Fifth Aunt, what's so difficult about this? We have nothing to do in autumn. We have made a lot of things. I have everything for you. I will find it for you tomorrow, but you have to eat less of the red skin in the mountains. Some, those things also have the effect of promoting blood circulation, eating too much is not good for you. There are plenty of leftover grape cakes and so on, just take care of yourself.” Fifth aunt can like the little things she pokes at will, Jinghan is very happy very.

"Jinghan, didn't Mingyu bring two baskets of oranges that day? I remember they were put in the backyard, right? You go and see if they are rotten. If there are any good ones, just pick some and let's eat some too. "Mrs. Chen suddenly remembered this. She was busy these days, but forgot about it.

Jinghan also forgot about this problem, and quickly agreed, and led Jingwan and the others to pick oranges at the back.When I came to the ear room in the backyard, I found the two baskets of oranges in the corner.There is no fire in this side room on weekdays, but to store things, and the temperature inside is very low.Fortunately, there are some quilts around the oranges, so they shouldn't be frozen.

Everyone opened the things outside and lifted the lid of the basket, "Guren, bring the lamp closer, let me see how the oranges look."

Hong Lian came forward as she said, and under the dim light, Jing Han carefully inspected these oranges.I don't know what kind of oranges Mingyu chose, but they are very resistant to storage, and they are still very plump, neither shriveled nor rotten.Jing Han took the basket from Jing Wan's hand, picked up two baskets full of oranges, and then stopped. "Okay, these are enough for dinner, and I have to eat the rest for the next few days, saving money."

Everyone came to the front with their baskets in hand. When Chen looked at the oranges, he also found them very strange, "Hurry up and share one with everyone. Everyone should try it. We don't have any here."

Jinghan distributed oranges to everyone next to each other, then went to the Westinghouse, and distributed oranges to them, and then everyone split open and tasted.In Jinghan's previous life, this orange was not considered a good thing at all, and she often ate it.But in this life, because of the long distance and lack of convenient transportation, many fruits were not eaten.Now that I ate this orange again, it tastes much better than the one in my previous life.

"The taste of this food is really good. Hey, what kind of fruit do you think Mingyu's house has? You can get all the fruits in the south. Wanting, if you like to eat, eat more." The old lady never I have never eaten oranges, but I think the taste is very good, so I thought that my daughter-in-law should also like to eat them.

"Grandma, it's okay for Fifth Aunt to eat some of this stuff, but you can't eat too much, or you'll have jaundice waiting for the baby. It's just that the face and body are yellow, that's a disease. But, it's just our family. Son, Fifth Aunt is fine after eating." Jinghan said hastily.

"Little girl knows a lot, that's all, I know. If you send some of these things to your eldest sister, there really isn't much left. Wanting, if you like to eat, I'll give it to you." Save more." The old lady now has these two pregnant women in her heart.

"Mother, you don't need it, just like what Jinghan said, it's really not good to eat too much of this food. Besides, it's not uncommon for us to meet occasionally when we are outside. Why don't you save some more for each family, here , oranges are a rarity." After all, Wanting came from a great family, and she has seen these things before, but Jing Han did not make them more attractive to her.

The big guys have finished eating the oranges, and it is already past the middle of the day.Mrs. Xue went to the kitchen to light the fire, poured most of the water into the two large pots, and waited for the water to boil to cook the dumplings.

Wen Han and the others went to wake up the old man and Zhixin, and the old man had to lead the distribution of papers later.

As soon as the child's hour arrived, Mrs. Xue started cooking dumplings in the house, while outside the old man led the men from the family to set up a heaven and earth table with tributes and other things on it.The old man lit a lot of burning paper in front of the Tiandi table, and then took a few strokes of paper and burned them in the north of the house, as well as the door and other places.

The dumplings in the house were cooked, Xue took out two bowls first, one bowl was placed in the north, and the other bowl was brought outside, with a pair of chopsticks placed horizontally on top of the bowls.

After all this was done, everyone went into the house to eat dumplings.Still like in the afternoon, divided into two rooms.

Inside the dumplings, there are things like copper coins and dates and peanuts. No matter who eats it, everyone smiles and congratulates him.For a while, the room was full of laughter and laughter, which was very lively.

The dumplings for the New Year's Eve are just that, and no one can eat much.In order to eat a copper coin, the children put all their strength into their stomachs.Seeing the children, Mrs. Chen was happy from the bottom of her heart, smiling all the time.

After the dumplings were finished, everyone cleared the table, and then the old man and the old lady sat on the kang, and all the grandchildren on the ground knelt down to kowtow to the two old people to pay New Year's greetings.The old man hurriedly asked them all to get up, and then Mrs. Chen began to give out red envelopes, one for each, with a small silver box inside.

After the children kowtowed, the servants outside also came in in batches to kowtow to the old man and the old lady.Of course, the Chen family also gave everyone a red envelope, and each red envelope contained [-] Wen. "It's Chinese New Year, just to ask for auspiciousness. There is not much money, so take it all, don't be disgusted."

I also ate the dumplings, and I prayed for the new year. Everyone talked together for a while, and they couldn't stand it any longer, so the old man told everyone to go to bed. "Okay, don't stay here anymore, go to bed quickly, the neighbors near her will come to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow. Don't let her come by then, we haven't woken up yet."

This day was indeed tiring enough. Everyone went back to their rooms and fell asleep after a while.

The first and second days of junior high school are the days of visiting relatives and friends.There are two old people in Xu's family, so the neighbors in the neighborhood came to pay New Year's greetings to the old people first. Even Ye Er and Shopkeeper Sun came to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of junior high.The Xing family brought their daughter-in-law and children over, and now the Xu family was bustling again.

Mrs. Chen pulled the daughter-in-law of the Xing family, Mrs. He, and the two chatted about Jinghan and Zixuan there. "Niece and daughter-in-law, do you think this is going to work? Let's find a date in February, and we'll settle the marriage of the two first, so it will be justified. Jinghan has set up a shop in the county, so she probably has to go to the county. When the time comes, we will all be together and see each other often, and they will be more comfortable after making a kiss."

"Auntie, since you said that, it's too late for me to be happy. When this marriage is settled, our hearts are relieved. In the future, Zixuan can study steadily, but I still hope that he can really pass the exam. Well, when the time comes, let's have a double happiness." When Mrs. He heard the old lady's plan, she agreed a hundred times.My son is about to become obsessed because of Jinghan. Can this mother not think about her son?

"Then let's just make a deal like this. When the first month comes out, you'll find a matchmaker, and we'll discuss the matter of getting married. This Jinghan is engaged, so I can really let go of my heart. This girl has a stubborn temper. But I’ve been looking at it for a while, and it seems like I’ve got the hang of it. I can also make clothes for Zixuan. I’ve never seen her do needlework before. Thanks to Zixuan who used to her, I’m happy with whatever she makes. It's terrible, if it's a different person, why don't you dislike Jinghan's sewing work?" The old lady said this on purpose because she was afraid that Mrs. He would dislike Jinghan's sewing.

"Auntie, what's the matter? I also looked at the clothes that Zixuan took back. They are not bad. You can do anything with stitches. Jinghan just practiced less. If she practiced more, she would be no worse than others." Of course, Mrs. He was not dissatisfied. , What kind of personality did she see in the grown-up child since she was a child, how could she not know?
After hearing this, the old lady was relieved, "Jinghan is still young, I see that if she can keep up this energy, she can really practice this needlework. Who knows, it's winter It's okay, she can calm down, and when it gets warmer outside, she will be busier than anyone else, so how can she have time to do needlework?"
