Chapter 27 Dumplings
It snowed all night, and until the next day, there were still fine snow falling slowly.? ?
The cold wind whistled from afar, wrapped in snowflakes, shaved on the face, and was biting cold.
Taohua got up early, not afraid of the cold, and excitedly stepped on the clean snow on the ground in the yard, leaving a string of footprints.
"What are you doing when standing outside? You are not afraid of the cold, go to the house quickly." Zhang came out of the house and saw Taohua standing in the yard playing, so he quickly pulled her into the house.
A brazier was built in the kitchen, and the fire was burning vigorously. As soon as I came in, I felt warm. Jin Dazhong, Jingsheng, Lihua and Mingsheng were all in the house.
"Hey, I'm dressed thickly, not very cold." Taohua rubbed her face and sat down next to Lihua.
"It's not cold yet, but my face turned red." Li Hua said while sitting between the stove and burning.
It was New Year's Eve tomorrow, and Zhang was busy making dumplings. In previous years, he used to make vegetarian stuffings, but this year he had some extra money to make meat stuffings. Mingsheng happily jumped around the pot. The family discussed making pork and radish stuffings. The pear blossoms burned the fire and the water in the pot was steaming. Zhang poured the cut radish slices into the pot and cooked them. He took the green onion and ginger, and Jin Dazhong picked up a kitchen knife to chop them.
Taohua held her face with her hands, looked at Jin Dazhong with her eyes shining brightly, and looked from the side with her lips tightly pursed, and her expression was focused. Wow, is it true that a good man at home can be rushed to get his feet! In the future, she will find such a farmer to marry a bird... Taohua automatically fantasizes about a family scene where a man farms and a woman weaving, a husband is virtuous and a child is filial, and a harmonious family.
"What are you thinking?" Mingsheng shook his hand in front of Taohua's eyes for a few times. He just called her a few times but didn't hear it. He really didn't understand what the third sister was thinking so fascinated.
"Ah" Taohua came to her senses, wiped her saliva, and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Mom asked you, will the shrimps still be put into the filling?" Mingsheng said, holding a clay pot.
"Well, of course I have to put it." Taohua said as she stood up, took the clay pot, dug out a small handful of shrimps from it with a spoon, and put it in the filling basin, where chopped meat filling was already placed.
Zhang picked up a piece of radish with chopsticks and tasted it, and then signaled that the pear blossoms should be turned off. He took out the cooked radish, took out the cage cloth, wrapped it in a portion of the radish into a ball, and asked Jin Dazhong to wring the juice contained in the radish, pour the wrung radish on the table. Then Jingsheng picked up a knife and started chopping it. Finally, after chopping all the radish, Zhang began to season it.
Looking at the fragrant pot of filling, just looking at it made the whole family feel particularly happy.
Kim Dazhong brought the table in the main room, Zhang put the chopping board on, and the family sat down around the table, Zhang squeezed the kneaded dough into small dishes after dish, and Lihua skillfully rolled the dough, Jin Dazhong and Jingsheng both picked up chopsticks to wrap it up, and Taohua was surprised. They are really good men, are there any, are there any, are there any, are there any, and they are not good at talking, but they are hardworking, sensible and capable. Well, in the future, I will look for men according to my brother's standards... Well, it seems that I am only eight years old now, and I am only nine years old after the New Year. Is it n years to find men?
"Peach Blossom, put less stuffing in it, otherwise it will not be able to hold it in, and it will easily reveal the stuffing." Zhang pointed with a smile.
"I know." Taohua stretched out her head and looked at the bags made by her father and brother. They were all like ingots, not to mention Zhang and Lihua. They were all very delicate and small, and couldn't help but sigh: "You guys are so good at packing, I'm just stupid."
"You are still young, just wrap it carefully. Come and I will teach you." Lihua wrapped a dumpling and put it down, moved it to Taohua to guide her.
Mingsheng made a face while grimacing, "Sister I was embarrassed, the dumplings I made were like buns!"
Taohua ignored him, rolled her eyes and said, "Second sister, please continue to teach me. If we ignore him, we will know how to joke with people."
The family was busy making dumplings. After making dumplings, Zhang arranged to cook again. Taohua was no longer busy, so she pulled Mingsheng out to play with snow. Mingsheng pulled Jingsheng again. Lihua was afraid of the cold and said nothing.
After leaving the yard, Taohua looked at the snow scene in front of her and couldn't help but sigh again. It was really hard to see such knee-high snow in modern times.
The whole world is covered in white, and the roofs, woods, hillsides, and people are all white, as if they have entered a world of snow, this is a paradise for children.
But the air was so cold that the wind was also cold, and it cut people's faces like a knife, but it did not affect the smile on people's faces at all.
"Look at my Thunderbolt Divine Thunder!"
Mingsheng grabbed a handful of snow from the ground, slowly rolled into a snowball, and then threw it over while the peach blossoms were not paying attention, and exploded on his body with a bang.
Peach blossoms said "ah", then they realized that they rolled a snowball and threw it over without showing any weakness. Then they also lost one at Jing Sheng who was watching the fun. Jing Sheng shook his clothes funny and ignored it. He seemed to disdain to make such a crazy fight with his sister. Before the smile on his face was closed, he was hit on his face again, but it was Ming Sheng who threw it away. Now Jing Sheng was so troublesome, he bent down and rolled a snowball. When the siblings saw it, it was nothing. They ran away. Jing Sheng threatened to chase after him, and the brothers and sisters chased and fought.
From a distance, a group of little kids seemed to run over again. It was Saburo who brought his friends to come over and joined the battle group again. Taohua's face turned red and defeated one opponent after another. She ran around in the snow, but she didn't feel cold. Her hands were made warm by the snow.
The game that I had a desperate but extremely luxurious life in my previous life can be played with so much fun now.
"Ha, don't run away, look at my Tathagata God Ball!" Taohua held a big snowball and chased Saburo.
Sanlang ran so happily. He accidentally bumped into the person in front of him and lay on the ground. Taohua quickly stepped forward, and the snowball was thrown firmly on Sanlang's face, and then laughed with his waist on the side.
"Look at you still dare to chase me and fight!" Taohua said, looking up at the person coming.
It was Su Jinchen, wearing a dark green cotton robe, with a belt around his waist, which made his body look very upright. He wore a felt hat, and a thick layer of snow fell on it. His thick black eyebrows were stained with snowflakes, and his face looked even more elegant. The lake seemed to have a smile on his eyes at this time, and it was like snowflakes melting into his eyes, which made people feel soft.
