The little girl of the Jiang family who is loved by the group will learn the fairy method

At this time, there was already a circle of people in the yard, including adults and children.Each of the children was holding a small rice ball in their hands and gnawed, laughing and watching as they gnawed.Seeing the eldest brother of the Jiang family coming out with his younger sister in his arms, he hurriedly gave them the best seat.

The steamed fragrant rice is yellow and has distinct grains.Poured into a special large stone mortar, three strong men held wooden hammers, and took turns to hammer each other. While hammering, they turned over and shouted "hey yo hey yo", very rhythmically.

This job requires a lot of experience and strength.The three strong men fought for a while, and then another group of people came on the field, alternating hammers, and fought back and forth for about [-] minutes.The fragrant rice in the stone mortar is thoroughly beaten into fine rice dough.

At this time, older aunts came over with a clean and oiled bamboo dustpan, put the beaten rice dough into a large funnel-like device, and pressed it down with a trapezoidal wooden awl.The rice balls are extruded from the circular tube below the funnel, and become a regular and smooth cylindrical shape.Then use clean and water-stained scissors to cut off a certain length and place them on a special wooden board to dry. The rice cake is considered ready.

Freshly made rice cakes are the most delicious, fragrant and glutinous, with a chewy texture.But because this thing is expensive, no matter how greedy the onlookers are, they can't do anything to ask for it.It was Old Hu who offered to have some short sticks cut for the children.

Glutinous rice cakes are similar to rice cakes.The best glutinous rice is steamed, pounded into a fine rice dough in a stone mortar, then pinched into a child's fist-sized ball, and then pressed to shape.

The method of rice fruit is much more complicated.

After soaking the glutinous rice, wash it, drain the water and pound it into a powder.Divide one-fifth of it out, add water and make rice dough, press it into a cake, and then put it into the boiled brown syrup to cook.

The cooked dough and the syrup are poured into the remaining rice noodles, and formed into several rice dough balls weighing more than ten kilograms, and left for two quarters of an hour to ferment.

Then use a rolling hammer to roll into a large noodle cake with a thickness of about one centimeter, use a special scale to measure and cut into noodles about five to seven centimeters, and then cut them with scissors or a knife into small strips about one centimeter wide , the wine is dried on the chopping board, and finally fried in an oil pan.

For a whole day, the Jiang family's yard was filled with a strange fragrance.The ready-made rice cakes, glutinous rice cakes and rice fruits filled the three rooms of the Jiang family.

After dinner, Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Hu called their three sons and daughters-in-law to sit together and held a family meeting to discuss the New Year's gift.Everyone said something to each other, and after drinking two pots of tea, they finally came up with a reasonable charter.

The first one is the annual ceremony of the tribe.

There are 47 households of the Jiang clan.Including Lizheng, Zhao Liuzhi, Qi Doufu and Grandma Yang's family, there are a total of 49 households.Each of these families gave five rice cakes and five glutinous rice cakes, which add up to one combination.In addition, each family will give one catty of rice fruit and two catties of meat.In recent years, the Jiang family has been favored by relatives, friends and clansmen, and now their own family has risen, so naturally they must not forget the big guys, otherwise they will forget their roots.Just like the Zhao family.

Zhao Liuzhi and Jiang Wenyuan grew up together, two years older than Jiang Wenyuan.

When I was young, a bunch of brats in the village had an appointment with someone from another village. He would be the head of the kids, and he helped Jiang Wenyuan take a lot of beatings.Later, there were many helpers.

His family has little land, and when he saw that the Jiang family was too busy during the busy farming season, he would often come to help.Whenever there is a good thing, I don't forget to leave a copy for Jiang Wenyuan.Therefore, Jiang Wenyuan remembered his affection very much.Now that he is living a better life, he naturally won't forget his brother who helped him bear the beating.

For example, Qi Tofu House.

Although the Qi family is an outsider, their life is not bad because of their good craftsmanship in making tofu.More than ten years ago, the old man Jiang was seriously ill and needed extremely expensive medicinal materials to save his life.

Lao Hu took his three sons and borrowed money from all the clansmen, but they still couldn't make up enough money for the medicine.After Qi Tofu heard about it, he took the initiative to borrow a sum of money from the Jiang family, and only then did he get enough for the medicine.Because of this kindness.The Jiang family also treated Qi Tofu family very courteously.

As for Granny Yang's family, it was purely a matter of convenience.It's really not easy for orphans and widows, it's a big deal if you can help them.

The second one is the three in-laws and Jiang Wenxi's master's family.These four houses, each with two boxes of rice cakes, two boxes of glutinous rice cakes, five catties of rice fruit, five catties of brown sugar, a whole bolt of fine cotton cloth, a jar of ten catties of wine, ten catties of pork and two catties of high-quality tea.

Because Lu's natal family is both in-laws and the husband of seven children, they doubled the original basis. The Jiang family's first wife and second wife didn't have the slightest opinion.

As for Lao Hu's natal family.Not two years after the brother and sister-in-law passed away, the only nephew also died of illness.The niece and daughter-in-law remarried with their three-year-old grandnephew, and there has been no news since.Don't mention it.

The third one is the county magistrate, the gentleman of the county school, the head of the mountain, Xuezheng and several honored squires.These annual gifts are more important.

Although the Jiang family has made a name for themselves, their foundation is superficial, and no matter how they are put together, they are all ordinary folk rituals.The Jiang family didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, and gave them what they had generously.First, it fits the identity of the Jiang family, and second, it avoids the suspicion of deliberate clinging.

The next day is the 27th of the twelfth lunar month.

At dawn, Jiang Wenkang took his eldest son Jiang Yujiang, and Jiang Wenyuan took his son Jiang Yuchuan to the county seat in the big snail cart they bought a month ago.In addition to the New Year gifts sent to each family, there were also the third sister-in-law of the Jiang family and Jiang Yuqing, a milk dumpling, on the mule cart.

As for Jiang Wenxi, he took the rest of the family and went door to door to give New Year gifts to the clansmen.

The speed of the snail car is very fast, and when it reaches the city, it will be the beginning of the morning.Although it was still early, the city was already very lively as the new year was approaching.

The third sister-in-law took Jiang Yuqing out of the car at the gate of the city, and went to buy new year's goods.The other two pairs of father and son went to send New Year's gifts separately.Jiang Wenkang and his sons would send them to the other squires, but Jiang Wenyuan had to go to the county magistrate and the county school chief himself.The family agreed on a meeting time here, and they split up.

Since Jiang Yuqing came to this world, he was the first to go out.So I am very curious about this lively ancient market.

Bluestone slabs or cobbled streets will allow two carriages to run side by side.Most of the shops on both sides of the street are small buildings with two or three floors, row upon row.On the door of the store are various signboards carved from logs or framed with a whole pair of calligraphy. No matter how bad it is, a flag will be picked up with a pole.Coupled with the long tunes, the small vendors yelling and selling all over the street are full of ancient flavors and charms, and fireworks in the world.

The life of the Jiang family is easy, and the old Hu family is also generous.I bought cloth and cotton early, and put on new clothes for the whole family.Especially Jiang Yuqing, the baby bump at home, who is new from head to toe.

The big red tiger head hat has a small silver bell on one side of the tiger ear, which jingles when it is moved slightly.A small red skirt embroidered with a butterfly pattern and a thick cape inlaid with rabbit fur in the same color.On the feet are the same cute little tiger head cotton shoes.Around the neck is a collar with a longevity lock with a pattern of hundreds of bats, and the chubby hands and chubby feet are wearing silver bracelets and anklets, which further complement the red lotus birthmark on the forehead, like a jade doll.

Therefore, no matter where he went, many people would stare at Jiang Yuqing, praising the doll for his good looks and looking at him as a lucky one.

The third sister-in-law of the Jiang family went shopping all morning and bought a lot of things, and the back basket was full.There are even a lot of things in Lu's back basket.When passing by the embroidery village, several people couldn't help but walked in again.At the end of the new year, there are many people buying clothes in the store, which is very popular.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Mrs. Lu, he happily greeted him: "Hey, junior sister, I haven't seen you for some time."

The shopkeeper's husband's family name is Chen, and people call her Mrs. Chen or the shopkeeper's wife. She has a sharp and sharp temperament.Her late husband Zeng Meng Lu Lao Xiucai taught for a few years, because of this relationship, when she saw Mrs. Chen, she also wanted to call her junior sister.

In the past, when life was difficult, Mrs. Lu would come to the store to sell embroidery every month, and she got a lot of care from Mrs. Chen.Since Mrs. Lu gave birth to her daughter, there have been fewer visits.Firstly, I don't have so much effort, and secondly, the family situation is better, so there is no need for her to rush to work day and night.

"There are too many things at home these days, and I'm really too busy. Take advantage of today's free time and come to see sister Chen."

"It's a good relationship. I heard that your husband was admitted to Juren, and you are now the wife of Juren. After all these years, you can be regarded as a success."

Lu's heart was joyful, and said: "Thanks to the good words of the sister of the Chen family, I am living a very good life now."

Mrs. Chen saw the fat baby in her arms, and said happily: "This is my little niece. Look at this little girl, she looks like the jade girl in front of you. It's really strange!"

All mothers like others to praise their children, and the Lu family is no exception.Although there are elements of politeness in these words, she will still be very happy every time she hears others praise her daughter.

"Baby, call me Auntie!" Mrs. Lu asked her to call someone.But you still have to be polite.

Jiang Yuqing also yelled a few times to save face.

"Oh, you're so cute."

The three sisters-in-law each picked out some clothing materials, preparing for the ceremony when they returned to their parents' home in the second day of junior high school.At the checkout, Mrs. Chen not only gave the best price, but also gave Jiang Yuqing two pairs of beautiful tiger-head shoes decorated with rice pearls.

Lu couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept it.

The three of them, Mrs. Chen, went out of the embroidery shop to continue shopping.

Seeing that the meal time was over, everyone was a little hungry.Lin suggested to find a place to cushion his stomach first, and then go to the gate of the city to wait for his snail car after eating.

The most important thing is that the child is hungry.

It was not convenient to breastfeed outside, the child hadn't eaten for a long time, and his stomach was growling with hunger, and Mrs. Lu had already heard the sound twice.This child is also sensible, presumably because he knows that his mother is inconvenient, even if he is very hungry, he will not cry or make trouble, which really makes people feel distressed.

The sisters-in-law walked for a while, and saw a wonton stall with a very good business on the side of the road, which looked clean, so they went to pick a clean table and sat down, and ordered three bowls of meat-filled wontons.

While the stall owner was cooking wontons, sister-in-law Lin took Jiang Yuqing over and hugged her on her lap to tease her.

Nine-month-old baby, because of sufficient nutrition, grows fleshy.It's okay to hug for a short time, but it's really tiring to hug after a long time.

Lin held Jiang Yuqing in his arms and weighed them, and said with a smile: "Our baby is really good, I can't help it! It's thanks to you for holding him for so long."

Lu shyly said: "I just hugged her and didn't take anything. You and my second sister-in-law are all on the back of so many things, and you are the most tired."

After a while, the wontons arrived.The skin is big and the stuffing is delicious.Mrs. Lu wanted to take her daughter back so that her sister-in-law could eat.Lin refused, and said cheerfully, "You eat first, and I'll feed her! Normally, I can't grab this job."

Not to be outdone, Mrs. Zhu said: "I'm with you!" Then he glared fiercely at Mrs. Lu: "It's none of your business to eat yours."

It might not be true.

Ever since Jiang Yuqing was able to eat complementary food, the living old Hu who feeds the children has basically rounded up.Even Lu's own mother has to stand aside.

Jiang Yuqing is an extremely well-fed baby, never picky eaters, and basically eats whatever is given to him.Big mouthfuls of dry rice, delicious to eat.

When you are happy, your fat arms will dangle involuntarily.As soon as it swayed, the Yinhuasheng on the wrist would also make a crisp sound.

At this time, a domineering voice sounded: "Grandma, I want that ringing bracelet!"
