Chapter 69 Changes in the Yard
Su Nana made a phone call outside for more than half an hour before happily rushing in with her cell phone and saying, "It's clear that the dandelion needs to be picked and washed with clean water and washed in a boiling pot. Be careful to grasp it. If the time is too long, the leaves will be cooked and there is no way to eat it. In the short time, the green air has not been removed, it is bitter and astringent, and it is difficult to swallow."
She was a little proud: her memory was quite good. After the mother on the other side said the precautions for dandelion, she told her to be careful outside and take good care of her niece. She had not forgotten the steps for so long.
As he was talking, Professor Zhao came to pick up eggs. He happened to hear them discussing making dandelion dumplings. He felt that it was quite fresh, which meant that he would go to the field to dig some. So Liu Junhao suggested not letting Teacher Wang cook at noon and come directly to help. Professor Zhao saw that they had made half a basket of dandelions, so he didn't refuse. He called his wife over to help through the courtyard wall.
Five people added a little girl who only knows how to make trouble. Although Teacher Wang had never used dandelions to make dumpling stuffing, he had been cooking for decades and knew how to make it.
She first put the washed dandelions in a boiling pot and scooped them up with a lever to squeeze them dry and chop them up.
Then I beat more than a dozen eggs and fry them in the pan, sprinkle some sesame seeds, and then put them in Liu Junhao's New Year to dry some shrimp skins, green onions, ginger, garlic, oil, salt, etc. and mix well...
Although it has not been done yet, just looking at the golden eggs and tender green dandelions make people feel appetite.
Nannan took advantage of the adult's inattention and the chopsticks were already stretched into the basin. Fortunately, Su Nana pulled her over and told her that it was raw and she couldn't eat it, so the little girl gave up.
Several adults went to make dumplings together, and Su Nana blushed again. She rarely did things at home. In addition, it was the first time she saw Fangye dumplings, so she had to make a dumpling for a long time and had not yet made it. Finally, even Xiao Nannan shaved her face and said, "Auntie is so stupid."
"You go and boil the water and wait and cook the dumplings later." Seeing that she was embarrassed, Liu Junhao spoke out to relieve the situation.
But soon, thick smoke rolled in the kitchen, and even the main hall became smoky. Several people ran out in panic, but saw Su Nana standing in the yard holding the jujube tree and coughing, choking so hard that she even shed tears.
Liu Junhao hurried into the kitchen and saw it, and was shocked: Fortunately, he came out early, and I'm afraid she would still ignite her kitchen in a while.
The poplar leaves filled the stove, and many sparks fell from the ground. Fortunately, she used semi-dried poplar leaves, which did not cause a fire.
After doing this once, Liu Junhao never dared to let her burn the fire again, and assigned her a job that even a little girl could do - to remove the dumpling skin.
After almost an hour of busyness, the hot dumplings were finally out of the pot. After steaming with boiling water, the fragrance of scallions and garlic spread all over the yard. After they all brought the bowls out, Liu Junhao only served a bowl of dumplings and sat at the table.
First there was a faint bitter taste, then the tenderness and fragrance of the mouth seemed to taste quite good, but it seemed not as delicious as Su Nana described.
But after he had just eaten five, Nannan stretched out her bowl and shouted, "Supply rice for me!"
Liu Junhao was shocked. He ate faster than himself and was not afraid of being hot. Is it so delicious?
Zhang Qian also said that it was even better than what he made, and picked up one chopstick after another.
Nannan ate three small bowls in a row, but she wanted to eat them, but was stopped by Su Nana, for fear that she would be over.
This little girl couldn't rest at all. She put down the bowl and hugged Qiuqiu and wanted to go out to play. Su Nana repeatedly told her that she could only play in the yard.
As a result, Nannan pushed open the fence door in the backyard and put Qiuqiu in the ditch. The eels were in trouble and had nowhere to escape.
"This yard is really beautiful. It would be great if I had such a yard..." Su Nana moved a stool and sat under the tree, stretched her waist slightly comfortably and said, this leisurely and comfortable life made her feel a little overjoyed.
It is the early spring now, the afternoon sun is very soft, and I just had a meal, so I looked very lazy and comfortable.
Xiaopi was lying not far away, half-closing her eyes. Even the hen that was provoking under its nose was too lazy to pay attention to it, but she made a low whimper. Who knew that the hen had become more violent when she saw it ignore it, and pecked at the food on its nose.
This made Xiaopi angry and yelled and drove all the hens out of the yard.
"Haha, I think I can come here often on Sundays in the future." Professor Zhao took the teacup and took a sip, and savored it carefully.
"The best Maojian, is it bitter?"
"Somewhat... don't mention it to me again." Professor Zhao became a little annoyed when he answered halfway. He thought of Liu Junhao ruining tea so much and wanted to grit his teeth.
Teacher Wang also knew the allusion here, and looked at his husband with his lips pursed and chuckled, his face full of tranquility and tranquility.
Zhang Qian looked at the couple's appearance and suddenly felt a little envious. Perhaps at their age, love has become a dull thing.
They were talking in front, but they saw Nannan rushing out of the backyard. The brand new plaid clothes were dirty just now. She held the collar in her hands and shouted excitedly: "Are you guessing what I found behind?"
"How did I explain it? I just asked you to play for a while and then got dirty." Su Nana stepped forward and was about to pull her, but suddenly pointed at the thing she was holding in Nannan's clothes in surprise and said, "Is this a snail... so big?"
"Auntie is very stupid. This is a snail. Look..." She ran to the front of the stone slab, shook her clothes, and seven or eight snails as big as small eggs fell down.
"So big..." Liu Junhao was also a little silenced. He found it from his backyard? It's too big, it's a bit outrageous. This snail looks no different from other ones, but its shell is obviously thinner than the common grass snail shell, facing the sunlight, slightly transparent.
Liu Junhao has lived in Liujiagou since he was a child. There are such grass snails in the fields. When it rains, they all climb to the trees to take shelter. Sometimes they can climb twenty or thirty on a tree trunk. But although he has never seen such a big one, he has grown so big after eating the vegetables in his yard.
Not only him, almost everyone was a little surprised and reached out to take one and looked at it.
"I want to eat snails, I want to eat snails." The little girl here has already started to scream. Why did she just remember to eat it?
"Why is this snail so big? Where did you find it?" Professor Zhao was also very curious.
"I found it at the base of the backyard wall, Qiuqiu took me to find it, where are there many more?"
So they followed the little girl to the backyard one by one. After they carefully searched, they found many of them under the roots of the grass, both big and small, but none of them were big and small, but they were not as big as the little girl found. She just picked up all the big ones.
"What's wrong with your fairy spirit in your yard? Everything is better than other people's homes?" Su Nana's casual emotion shocked Liu Junhao.
Seeing that she was just an unintentional word, Liu Junhao felt relieved and secretly wondered if he would change the spring water in the ditch a few times in the future, otherwise people would definitely notice the strangeness in the yard over time.
However, after thinking about it, he felt relieved. He didn't steal or rob, so what's there to be afraid of. Besides, even if he told the matter about the stone lock, people would think that he had a fever and burned his brain and talk nonsense.
