The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 185 Preparing for the Start-up Meal (3)
Jiang Shi also heard the knock on the door, and she was puzzled, who would open the door so early in the morning.

"Sister Yao, Qu'er, I'm the second uncle, have you two gotten up yet?"

At this time, Jiang Yungui and Feng's couple were standing outside the door. Jiang Yungui saw the light of the oil lamp coming from the crack of the door, so he reached out and knocked on the door a few times, and then yelled a few times towards the inside.

As soon as Jiang heard it, he recognized Jiang Yungui's voice.

So, she turned to Wei Changqu and said, "Qiao'er, it seems to be your second uncle."

"Well, I'll go and open the door right now." After finishing speaking, Wei Changjue threw the cotton towel in the basin, then walked to the door, pulled out the latch, and opened the door with a creak.

After the door was opened, she saw Jiang Yungui and Feng's couple standing outside the door. Because they were too angry, they hurried on their way. The hair on their foreheads was covered with a lot of morning dew. , wet.

Wei Changju looked at the two of them and said, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, why did you come here so early in the morning? It's still so early, it's cold outside, come on, come in quickly." At the same time, Wei Changqu had already invited the two of them into the house.

Seeing that the two of them were covered with morning mist, Jiang hurriedly poured out the basin of hot water that Wei Changju had washed his face in, scooped up another basin of clean hot water, and handed it to them.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, why did you rush over here so early? I feel so sorry for my sister."

"There's hot water in this basin, hurry up and wipe your face, the second sister-in-law's nose is turning red from driving the ox cart so early in the morning."

Feng Shi stuffed the cotton towel into Jiang Yungui's hand and asked Jiang Yungui to wash it first.

She stared at Jiang and said: "Sister-in-law, look at you still saying these things, why don't you feel sorry for it, your family is building a house, shouldn't your second brother and I come to help?"

"Second sister-in-law, you and second elder brother have come to help me and Qu'er, Dan'er, what should parents do?"

Thinking that Feng shi helped him everywhere, Jiang shi felt very sorry.

Just a few days ago, Zhe'er bought some meat, eggs, flour, etc., and asked her to go to Jiuli Village to visit grandma and grandpa. She mentioned in front of Mr. Feng that the construction of the house started on 26, and Mr. Feng I kept it in my heart.

Thinking of Feng's kindness, Jiang's heart was very moved, so moved that his throat was a little sobbing.

"Second sister-in-law, you and the second elder brother helped me and Qu'er so much, I really don't know how to thank you."

Feng didn't like to hear Jiang's words like this, she pretended to lower her face, and said to Jiang: "Sister-in-law, why are you talking to me so politely, thank you, I don't need your thanks, your second brother As a girl like you, as the second sister-in-law, I will help you if you can, so there is nothing to be grateful for."

"Dan'er, you don't have to worry about father and mother. Father and mother are old, and their hands and feet are inconvenient. It's inconvenient to cook, but Dan'er can cook for her grandpa and grandma. That daughter The baby is already this big, and she will grow up to be a big girl in two or three years, is it still difficult for her to cook a meal?"

After Jiang Yungui and his wife washed their faces in hot water, they immediately felt much warmer.

At this time, Jiang Yungui suddenly remembered something, and looked at Wei Changqu and said.

"Qie'er, Second Uncle knew that you didn't have a table or chairs to eat here, so he discussed with your Second Aunt and brought all the tables, chairs and benches at home with a bullock cart."

"It's not yet dawn, and the dew and mist outside are heavy, don't get wet, you have to move all the tables and chairs in quickly."

Wei Changju didn't expect that Jiang Yungui, a strong man, would be so careful. He not only came over to help her, but also bought tables, chairs and benches all at once.

"Second Uncle, I'm really sorry for your trouble." Wei Changjue showed gratitude on his face.

"What's the matter, what's not the matter, you child, why did you say such polite words to the second uncle?" Jiang Yungui had already stepped over the threshold while speaking.

Because of pulling the tables, chairs and benches, Jiang Yungui and his wife forced the ox cart to the mountain temple.

It was a dark day and the road was not easy to walk, but it took a lot of effort, and it also made things difficult for the scalper pulling the cart.

Jiang Yungui was strong enough to move the most cumbersome table, and Wei Changjue, Jiang Shi, and Feng Shi went out to help move the benches and chairs.

The Shanshen Temple has a single room, the space is too narrow, if tables, chairs and benches are placed, it is difficult to turn around.

Jiang Yungui found a corner and stacked the tables, chairs and benches.

After moving the table and chairs, Jiang and Feng were busy steaming the rolls.

Today is the first day of work, and the meal must be decent and presentable. Only when the craftsmen who build the house are satisfied with the food will they put in more effort when building the house.

Jiang shi kneaded two large pots of white dough last night, and after one night, both pots of white dough had fermented and swelled.

This morning, she is still preparing to steam a pot of salt and pepper rolls.

The white salt-and-pepper rolls have a salty scallion flavor. Although there is no core, it is much more delicious than white flour steamed buns, and the recipe is very simple.

Jiang took out the dough first, then poured a few ladles of water into the pot, and put a smaller grate in the pot.

Because of the large number of people, she guessed that she would have to steam two steamed steamed rolls in order to feed so many mouths. Fortunately, the new pot Wei Changqu bought had a deep pot mouth, so it is better to steam two layers of steamed rolls at once. No problem, otherwise it would be more troublesome to steam one pot after another.

Feng's doesn't know how to make flower rolls, so he is in charge of lighting the fire.

While lighting the fire, she watched the movements of Jiang's hands. After watching for a while, she said, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Steamed buns are not like steamed buns, buns are not like buns, what are they?"

Jiang put the beautifully twisted flower rolls on the grate, and said to Feng with a smile, "Second sister-in-law, these are called flower rolls, and Qu'er taught me how to make them. They are better than the white steamed buns." Eat, it's salty, with a hint of chives, it's delicious, later, you can eat two more."

After Jiang finished speaking, Feng showed a simple smile on her face, and the fire from the stove shone on her face, flickering.

She joked with Jiang, saying: "Sister-in-law, hearing you say it's so delicious, I'm almost drooling."

Jiang and Feng's aunts and sisters-in-law were busy on the stove, while Wei Changjue and Jiang Yungui were on the sidelines scalding the pig's head with red-hot tongs.

Because the god of the earth had to be sacrificed first when the work started, and then Wei Changju went to buy another pig's head on purpose.

The short and miscellaneous hairs on the pig's head are not easy to shave. After buying it home, it usually needs to be scalded with red-hot tongs, especially the pig's ear hole, which needs to be burned a few times with red-hot tongs. Time to get it clean.

I saw Jiang Yungui holding the handle of the poker in his hand and inserting the red-hot part into the hole of the pig's ear. As soon as the red poker was inserted into the hole of the pig's ear, there was a chi-chi sound immediately, and a puff of scorched flesh came out. smell.
