Chapter 225 Busy green days
Chapter 225: Busy Green Days
For several days, the villagers were busy with the flour dough.
After the flour noodles from each household were fully dried, Liu Guangju organized people to set up two big pots in the wheat field and officially started to put the vermicelli.
The procedures of cooking pot, granulated flour, granulated noodles, granulated noodles, etc. require manpower. After all, no ten people can't be busy. Among them, granulated flour is a physical job, and two young people need to replace them.
Liujiagou hasn't laid vermicelli for more than ten years, and the younger generation doesn't even know the general process. So, Mr. Liu Wu became the technical director and guided the basin. He mainly depends on whether the dough is evenly mixed. If it is not mixed, there will be a large piece of dough into the pot, which is the dough. Lao Niu Tou is the general manager of the scene and greets him back and forth at the top of his voice.
Sweet potato flour is no different from wheat flour. You need to roll up your sleeves and stir it hard in the basin. However, sweet potato flour is much rougher than flour, and it requires a lot of effort.
"Hi...Hi..." As Master Liu Wu played, Liu Junhao and the other three began to stir in the basin.
At first I felt cold on my hands, and soon I felt sweaty on my forehead.
The flour noodles were mixed, and Liu Guangju stood by the pot and put the flour on it.
The mold of the vermicelli was made of half a gourd ladle, and a lot of round holes were drilled with thick nails at the bottom.
He put the grated flour noodles in the basin into the gourd scoop, then held the gourd scoop in one hand and gently tapped the gourd with his fist with his other hand. The flour noodles fell into the pot in a straight line along the round hole.
At the beginning, the vermicelli was very thick, but when it fell into the pot, it turned into as thin as cotton thread.
It seems simple to put vermicelli, but it is also a technical job. If you don’t master the rhythm well, it is easy to put a “rolling pin” as thick as your thumb.
The raw vermicelli rolled into the pot and immediately became crystal clear. Someone next to him took a stick and took them out, put them in cold water to cool. After cooling, he used a bamboo pole to tie them up, and then hung them on the shelf next to him.
Leaving vermicelli can be said to be a rare event in Liujiagou, so all the idle people in the village come to help.
"Uncle Xiaohao, get me a piece and I'll make a ball of powder." The hairy child came over with his schoolbag after school.
"I'm busy here," Liu Junhao scolded him and then disturbed him.
"Get some for me." When the child saw that no one paid attention to him, he reached out to grab it into the basin.
Liu Junhao hurriedly made a ball of flour and threw it into his hands, but the little kid saw it and followed him to ask for it.
They got the flour noodles and threw them under the stove to bake the flour. The freshly kneaded flour noodles were very sticky, and the flour they baked was crispy and crispy. Wukong was so envious that he also grabbed a sorghum stalk and jumped to the basin, pointing at the flour inside with his claws, squeaking.
Liu Junhao didn't want to pay attention to this guy, so he turned around and pretended not to see it. Instead, Liu Qihua made a large ball of flour for Wukong.
However, the monkey's barbecue technique is really not very good. The batter is either half-cooked or black. After taking a bite, it feels not delicious and secretly stuffs it into its owner's pocket.
After saving it for a few of them, the guy became honest.
When it was Liu Junhao's turn to vermicelli, everyone noticed the difference. The noodles were very easy to mix, and they were very soft after being put into the pot. There was no "rolling pin" at all.
After the vermicelli was iced, Ermazi pinched a few pieces and tasted them. The cold and sweet feeling came straight into his heart. He immediately ordered ten pounds and said that he would eat them at home during the Chinese New Year.
The freshly-laid vermicelli is very soft and will slip directly to the ground when hung on the rack. Therefore, you need to water it on the top at night to freeze the vermicelli.
When the next day, people will break off the ice on the vermicelli. Repeat this a few times, and wait until the spine of the vermicelli is dried, and there is no need to water it.
In a few days, the temple was filled with vermicelli shelves. The children regarded this place as a playground and crept around in the vermicelli shelves. If they were not careful, they would knock off the bamboo pole with vermicelli hangings.
After causing trouble, these guys ran away one by one. When the people were waiting for the discovery, they could not find the culprit at all. It was only when Liu Wuye went to school to sue and they were born.
After a long busy week, Liu Junhao was finally able to eat his own vermicelli.
In the evening, the two couldn't wait to make a vermicelli soup. After tasting it, Zhang Qian kept admiring and said that she would definitely bring some back when she returned home on New Year's Day.
This time, we made a total of 200 kilograms of vermicelli. Apart from the dozens of kilograms left by them and Professor Zhao's family, there are still a lot left.
New Year's Day is coming as soon as the school is on its way. The school has three days off. My wife is going back to see her parents, and Liu Junhao is naturally accompanying her throughout the journey.
The keys to the door were handed over to Mr. Zhao, and he asked him to help take care of him when he was fine.
I usually don’t feel that I am going to leave home for three days, but Liu Junhao found that there are so many miscellaneous things. The chickens, ducks, rabbits, etc. in the yard need to be fed, and there are also customers who have to call over to buy eels. These things are not enough to leave people.
Before leaving, the monkey was going out with them. Liu Junhao rushed it several times before leaving it at home. However, just as soon as he drove the electric car to the entrance of the village, the guy rushed out of the grass again and stood in the middle of the road and kept calling.
The two discussed it and simply took Goku with them. A few days ago, Ozawayu heard that there was a monkey coming from their family and was still making noises to come and see it. This time, I happened to let the little guy see the monkey.
The bus they were taking at the station, and there were not many people when they first got on the bus, so no one noticed that the two had a monkey.
But just after a while, Liu Junhao saw a little girl next to him looking around.
"Mom, look, monkey!" The childish voice seemed particularly crisp in the carriage, and people looked along her fingers.
Wukong found himself in the focus and immediately jumped to the top of the car seat and grimaced at the person with his ears and foreheads, and finally bowed to everyone.
The little girl could not withstand the temptation, and struggled from her mother's arms and ran straight to the monkey to feed the sesame cake. This guy Wukong was a little greedy. After eating, he reached out to ask someone for it. The little girl had to run back to her seat and carry the whole bag over.
The other children in the carriage were also very curious and surrounded them and took out their snacks to feed the monkeys.
Now Wukong is very developed, bubble gum, sesame paste, peanut kernels, etc. In a while, his hands are full of food. This guy put the food in his hand into Liu Junhao's arms and stretched out his hand to continue asking for it.
Zhang Qian hurriedly patted its head and gave it a lesson before the monkey became honest.
Not being honest for two minutes, it began to climb up the handrail and jump in the carriage, which made the passengers applaud. For a moment, the guy became a "little star" in the car.
Seeing that the candy in his arms was good, Liu Junhao peeled one of them and stuffed it into his mouth. But the monkey noticed it immediately and jumped over and shouted at him.
Judging from the meaning, it seemed that these things were all theirs and no one could touch them. When they arrived in the city, the monkey received a large plastic bag of food.
Liu Junhao was originally afraid that Wukong was tired and wanted to help him. Who knew that this guy would not let anyone help, and he held the plastic bag tightly, obviously because he was afraid that Liu Junhao would steal it.
After getting off the taxi, Zhang Qian's parents, her brother, sister-in-law and nephew were waiting at the entrance of the community.
"Mom, where is your hair dyed in the barber shop? Why didn't you dye it well? There are so many white hairs?" After saying a few words, Zhang Qian found that her mother's hair had changed.
"It's not dyed, it's the credit of the local honey. Last time you made me two bottles of honey, and I make a cup every day. Just a few months later, my hair was shiny and turned black again. Your aunts in the community were so envious that they kept reminding me, saying that they would ask you to raise more local bees next year, and they wanted to buy..." When talking about local honey, Zhang's mother became more and more.
"That's right, your family must keep more bees next year. After drinking honey water, my skin becomes much more delicate. The girls in our unit are constantly asking me about the secret beauty recipe." Wang Yun also interjected, and then she looked at her sister-in-law's skin carefully and said with a little enviousness: "Your skin is so white. It's so delicate in such a dry weather, and it's so tender that it's almost watery."
"I didn't even drink honey." Zhang Qian also had a sense of pride in her words.
When they talked about beauty, a few men couldn't get into the mouth, so they simply put on chess in the living room. As for Ozawa Yu, from the moment he saw Goku, his mind was completely fascinated. He ran back to the bedroom and took out his dolls, machine guns, Transformers, etc. for the monkey to play with.
It was the first time that Goku encountered so many fun things, and he also played them very interestingly.
After chatting for a while, Zhang Qian's cell phone rang. When she saw the number, she was called by Teacher Wang.
"Xiaoqian, did you see a monkey before you left? Your Uncle Zhao and I searched all around, but we didn't see it." Teacher Wang was very anxious on the other side of the phone. When he left, he promised to take a look at the door, but he lost something in a blink of an eye. No wonder she was anxious.
"Aunt Wang... Wukong was not lost, it came with us. Sorry, I forgot to tell you." Zhang Qian hurriedly explained that they were confused and did not think of this along the way.
"It's good if you haven't lost it, it's good if you haven't lost it." Teacher Wang chatted for a few words before hanging up the phone.
Zhang Qian brought a lot of things to her parents' home this time, and all the bags were local specialties, vermicelli, mushrooms, fungus, etc. She originally thought that it was difficult to get so many things, so Liu Junhao insisted on bringing them all.
Liu Junhao has his own considerations. It is the first time his wife has returned home. No matter how much she says, it can't be too shabby. Besides, these things are not worth much money, they are more of their feelings.
When cooking at noon, Zhang Qian showed off her skills. The fried mushroom meat she made was very admirable to Zhang's mother. She even said that her daughter's skills had surpassed hers, and the fried mushrooms were fragrant and tender.
Liu Junhao thought the ingredients were good, and all the mushrooms were produced in stone locks.
Speaking of which, the coldest temperature in the stone lock is above zero degrees. After sprinkling mushroom spores beside the spring water, he picked mushrooms several times. Now he has saved more than ten kilograms in his house, which is enough for the New Year.
