take a wife to support the family

Chapter 197 Shepherd's Purse Meat Wonton

Song Haonian and Baihe traveled around the county and Linxian County for four or five days, and found three kilns. One of them told them that most of the people who make shochu use pottery, and those who pay attention to it use copper. .

Lily had also considered this issue before, but the flower dew steamed from copper vessels is easily polluted by copper rust, and pottery is cheap, but the texture is not as good as porcelain.

In general, porcelain is the best substitute for glassware.

Another kiln factory also said that the things she wanted were weird, and their workers had never made such weird things, and they were afraid that they would not be suitable for use.

The last family was willing to take over the job, and said that there was no model that was not easy to imitate. Lily was already prepared for this problem. She drew more than a dozen pictures according to the appearance of the distiller in her previous life, and she was afraid that some things would not be suitable. , specially found a workshop for steaming shochu, and asked her to show her how to steam wine.

After all, the distillers of later generations are somewhat different from those of this era. Lily also drew a picture according to the appearance of the distiller, and made a little improvement by combining the two. Song Haonian took the picture she drew to Take it to the kiln worker to burn.

He also said: "You have to return this picture to us completely, and you must not reveal the appearance of these things to others."

When the business starts in the future, there is no secret recipe that can really keep it, but what business needs is to seize the opportunity, knowing that others will not be ahead of them, and they will be sure to make a lot of money.

Lily spent a lot of thought on those pictures, and the paintings were very delicate. The kiln worker looked at them and sighed: "How can you draw so well?"

Song Haonian also asked Lily how he could paint like that, Lily said with a smile: "If you draw too many patterns of flowers, you will naturally draw a few strokes. It's not like a scholar who writes and draws. He pays attention to the artistic conception. I only see that Whatever the thing looks like, just follow it and draw it out, which is not far from the appearance of painting flowers."

Now Song Haonian has also learned how to use Lily. He has to make a contract to ask someone to burn porcelain, and he has agreed to burn three sets. Some fragile items need to be replaced with a few more sets. Lin Lin finally got a lot of them. It's so strange that they couldn't be fired together in an ordinary kiln. In the end, the kiln factory decided to fire two kilns for them alone.

In spring, wild vegetables are all over the ground. The young husband and wife have been busy for a long time, and finally have half a day of leisure. On the way home, they saw shepherd's purse growing tender and fresh, so they pulled out a lot of them. Boil in hot water, remove and drain.

Tell Song Haonian to buy a piece of fresh meat that is half fat and half lean.

Knead the flour into snowflakes first, and then knead it into a smooth dough. Song Haonian had already returned when making the noodles, so he asked him to finely chop the meat and ginger into rice-sized pieces, add some pepper powder and pepper powder, and put two spoonfuls Autumn oil and mix well.

The shepherd's purse that has just been drained is also chopped and stirred with the minced meat. Stir in one direction until it is strong. Lily adds a spoonful of raw lard to it for delicious taste.

After the dough is ready, roll it into a very large and thin skin, cut it into small cubes with a knife, and then use it to wrap wontons.

Put a piece of skin in the palm of your left hand, scoop out a ball of meat filling, roll the wonton skin twice, turn it inside out, and then pinch the corners together to form a wonton in the shape of a hat.

Wrap thirty or fifty of them in the same way, and cook them in a boiling water pot.Take two white porcelain bowls, spread chopped green onion, autumn oil, and coriander powder on the bottom of the bowl, rub the seaweed and dried shrimp that are not used up for the New Year in winter, and put them in it. Fish out the wontons, and put two drops of sesame oil in the bowl at the end.

The soup is yellowish in color, and the translucent white dough is wrapped with pink meat filling and green shepherd's purse. There are green onions and coriander powder floating on the soup surface. The sesame oil makes the whole bowl of wontons more beautiful and attractive.

Take one with a spoon, blow it and bite it, the skin is extremely thin, almost tasteless, the entrance is full of meaty and crispy taste of shepherd's purse, the extra spoonful of lard makes the meat more smooth and tender, and the soup is scrambling It rolled down the throat, so fresh that the tongue would melt away.

Eat a wonton and drink the soup. Seaweed, dried shrimp, and chopped green onion make the wonton soup delicious and endless. Even a little girl can easily eat a bowl, not to mention that a young man like Song Haonian can eat it all in a short time , even drank the soup, and looked at Lily helplessly: "Daughter-in-law, there is not enough food."

Lily's face couldn't help but blushed slightly, she was greedy for shepherd's purse, she was too busy looking at the delicious food, but forgot that there was not enough to eat, so she quickly said, "I'll get something else to eat, just wait a while."

Song Haonian said with a smile: "Let's spread out the burritos. There are still some shepherd's purse. It's good to eat them rolled up. You eat the wontons first, and I'll go clean up the vegetables."

Lily watched him go to wash the vegetables with a smile, and felt that this person was really the best, she was very lucky to meet this person.

Song Haonian had just washed the shepherd's purse and was about to cut it, when suddenly he heard Niu's voice shouting outside: "Happy New Year, New Year!"

Niu wants to put on airs of a mother-in-law, so she refuses to come to Song's house so easily, every time she comes back, nothing good happens, when she hears her call, the young couple's heart suddenly breaks down.If you don't agree, just pretend that there is no one at home, the chimney on the top of the kitchen has already sold them out.

There was no other way, so I had to open the door and invite Mrs. Niu to come in, and asked respectfully, "Mother, what's the matter?"

Niu's face was full of smiles: "Someone from the Liu family said that Xiuxiu is pregnant, and now I'm going to see her, and ask your wife to pack up and go with me!"

Song Haonian wanted to say that Lily's rice hadn't been finished yet, Lily quickly stopped him, and congratulated Niu first: "This is a great thing, mother will be able to hug her grandson soon!"

Niu glanced at Baihe, curled his lips: "Grandson is good, but I have to have a grandson for me to hug!"

Lily made her choke, and didn't know what to say for a moment, so she heard Song Haonian say: "Mother, are you and my wife alone? Do you want to bring anything?"

Speaking of going to the Liu family, Niu became happy again. Gao Sheng said: "Not only your wife, but your sister-in-law is also going! Xiuxiu is a great hero of his Liu family. In the future, he will give birth to a son, the son of a scholar. Your face is bright. Do you have any eggs at home? Take eight pairs and follow me."

In rural areas, people take eggs, as many as six pairs, as few as four pairs, and eight pairs is really a remarkable specification.Lily goes to the chicken coop to find seven or eight eggs every day, but every day for breakfast, she cooks one for her family and a few workers, and the rest are mostly cooked into dishes or stored in the chaff pile.

She went into the kitchen to count, and came out with a look of embarrassment: "Mother, there are not so many eggs at home."

Niu's face twitched: "It is said that you will be the head of the family, and this is how you are the head of the second child? You can't even get eight pairs of eggs, so marry you for nothing!"

Song Haonian called out warningly: "Mother!"

Niu closed his voice resentfully, gouged out Lily's eyes and said, "Take a few, hurry up, or it will be dark sooner or later."

Lily took a small basket and put ten eggs in it. It looked a little thin, then cut two sausages and put them in, and followed Niu Shi.

Before leaving, he whispered to Song Haonian: "I'm full, you don't care what to eat, there are two eggs in the grain pile, either boiled, or mixed with some cornmeal rice to make an omelette."

Niu's yin and yang said strangely: "There are so many words!"

Lily hurriedly followed, but Niu didn't go to Liu's house first, but went home first to bring her something for her daughter.

Niu loved her daughter, and filled a basket full of brown sugar, meat, and eggs. Dong’s sister-in-law was reluctant to pay for her sister-in-law, so she packed eight eggs reluctantly and said to Niu: Living with parents, what food is not from parents' money? We give Xiuxiu things from parents as favors, how can it compare to mother's kindness?"

These few words first coaxed Mrs. Niu. Before going out, Mrs. Niu saw that there were at least two sausages in the lily basket, and Mrs. Dong had four pairs of eggs empty. A few glances.

Mrs. Dong gave Niu a stare, knowing that her mother-in-law would torment her again when she came back, she shuddered, and hated Lily again: It's not that this little whore wants to sell well in front of her mother-in-law, how can she compare to her not loving my sister-in-law?
Dong didn't believe that Baihe would feel sorry for Song Xiuxiu, she only saw that she was hiding traitors: she took care of her in-laws at home, unlike Li Baihe who went into business and didn't take care of her in-laws. I know that I have eaten good things.

But she is the eldest daughter-in-law, and her husband and her son will inherit the incense of the old Song family in the future, so there is no reason to separate them.Niu's old godly woman tormented her and she had to bear it honestly. She hated Niu's domineering, but also lily and cunning, and she almost overturned the salt and vinegar shop in her heart, sour and bitter.

When I arrived at Deliu's house for a while, I could only hear laughter and laughter inside, and people who were acquainted with Xiaoxiucai's family gathered in the yard to talk.As soon as Niu came in with his two daughters-in-law, Xiucai's mother came over with a smile all over her face, and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, you can come!"

With one hand, she stretched out the handles of the baskets brought by the three women, Dong reluctantly handed out the baskets, and followed behind her mother-in-law, her brows lowered and her eyes pleasing, not daring to show her head.

Song Xiuxiu was pregnant with the Liu family's seed less than a year after her marriage. Niu thought it was due to Song Xiuxiu's contribution, and even more the admiration of their old Song family. Everyone knows that the daughter of their old Song family is the best at giving birth!
After talking to Xiucai's wife, Niu rushed to see his daughter, but Xiucai's mother couldn't stop talking behind her: "It's hard work for this woman to carry a child, Xiuxiu is so skinny these days, I don't have the face to see you. "

Niu didn't say a word, she was also a mother-in-law, and she knew that her mother-in-law wanted to punish her daughter-in-law, and there were many ways to do it.

She walked towards Song Xiuxiu's room, and as soon as she entered, she saw Song Xiuxiu lying on the bed, she was thinner than last time, but her eyes were shining brightly, with a silly smile on her face, she didn't know what she was doing What a daydream.

Seeing her mother and her two sister-in-laws, Song Xiuxiu hurriedly smiled and asked them to sit down. Niu hurriedly asked her if she was doing well these days.

Song Xiuxiu held her not-so-protruding belly in both hands, and said proudly: "I'm good in everything, I'm afraid this one in my stomach is also a literary star, born to bring blessings!"
