Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 54 Dad, the buns are delicious
  Bai Ruoxi had already cleaned up the old chicken coop, which saved Lu Jiansheng a lot of trouble.

Bai Ruoxi was mending clothes in the main room. When she saw Lu Jiansheng was busy, she asked him to lie on the bed and rest for a while.

Nowadays, Lu Jiansheng gets up early and comes home late every day. She sees it all when he goes hunting in the mountains and goes into the city. She has to work so hard to make money. Although she can't help much, she feels very sorry for him.

"Good Le!"

Lu Jiansheng was not polite either. There is a difference between being a bachelor and having a virtuous and gentle wife at home.

He was lying on the bed, and the two little guys also ran over, turned into the bed, and wrapped around Lu Jiansheng and beat his back.

Faced with the little ones' wishes, Lu Jiansheng readily accepted them, especially the two little ones. They were fun and the bed heating effect was also very good. He lay on the bed and enjoyed it.

"Stop using your hands and use your feet to help daddy step on it!"

"Dad, are you comfortable?"

"Dad, is Xixi strong?"

Bai Ruoxi couldn't help but ask when she saw Lu Jiansheng appearing in the kitchen.

"Comfortable."

"What did you plan to do when you entered the kitchen so early?"

The key is, Lu Jiansheng doesn't understand either.

"Where are the two little guys? Why are you up? You go out early and come back late every day and you don't get much sleep."

"You bought a lot of noodles at home last time, and there happened to be meat, vegetables, and eggs. I plan to make steamed buns."

Lu Jiansheng asked, looking at Bai Ruoxi who was busy in the kitchen.

"You should rest! I can do it myself." Bai Ruoxi refused,
  "It's okay, I just lay on the bed for a while."

Making steamed buns and kneading dough is a laborious job, and Lu Jiansheng felt sorry for his wife.

"big."

"Let me help!"

As he spoke, Lu Jiansheng took a newly purchased iron basin, poured in flour and water, and started kneading the dough, first kneading the flour into a ball.

Then Bai Ruoxi came over and said, "It's already chopped. You take a rest and I'll do it!"

When Bai Ruoxi on the side saw this, she also started to chop the meat filling. After hiding the meat filling, she put it and the meat filling in a large basin, sprinkled with seasonings, and stirred evenly.

Bai Ruoxi smiled and said,

"The little guy fell asleep, so I just lay down and rested for a while, so I wasn't sleepy." Lu Jiansheng said with a smile.

"These two little guys! I went to help you while I was talking, but I fell asleep."

However, the two little ones were full and easily sleepy. Lu Jiansheng did not fall asleep, but the two little ones lay on the bed and played for a while and slept soundly.

Lu Jiansheng said perfunctorily with a smile, and the two little guys kept humming and talking while playing.

Bai Ruoxi replied.

"Need not."

Lu Jiansheng smiled.

"The minced meat is almost done, you can rest."

Bai Ruoxi: "...Does this person think he is a pig?"

Lu Jiansheng never went into the kitchen before, but now he comes to help whenever he has time, and his cooking skills are better than hers. Now Bai Ruoxi feels that she is too idle.

Thinking that she would make the buns later, Bai Ruoxi went to find work by herself.

"Okay! It's finally done."

Finally all the preparations were done.

Lu Jiansheng smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Bai Ruoxi had already cleared out the shabby small table in the main room and took out a clean wooden board.

Lu Jiansheng carried the two basins over.

The couple sat down on a small stool and started making buns.

Fresh air.

The scent of wild vegetables and meat comes from the tip of my nose.

Lu Jiansheng rolled out the buns methodically, while Bai Ruoxi wrapped the buns quickly.

The two of them had obviously never done this before, but at this moment, they had an inexplicable tacit understanding.

……

When the sun went down in the evening, Lu Jiansheng and Bai Ruoxi were steaming steamed buns in the kitchen.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside. Lu Jiansheng opened the door and took a look.
  It's Liu Fugui.

"Uncle Fugui, why are you here?"

Lu Jiansheng asked.

"Jiansheng? Where's my cart! How many days has it been?" Liu Fugui said angrily. The last time he borrowed Lu Jiansheng's cart, he was told to return it early.

"Uh……"

Lu Jiansheng really forgot about this matter.

"Uncle, can you sell me your cart?"

Lu Jiansheng said, holding a stack of dimes in his hand.

At first glance, there is a big unity picture!

Good guy!
  This must be at least more than ten yuan, right?
  Liu Fugui's eyes widened!

In the morning, Liu Fugui heard from Lu Youfu that this boy Lu Jiansheng had caught a wild boar and brought it to the city with that idiot from his family to sell it. He couldn't help but sigh that this boy was really lucky.

"If you want to buy it, give me two dollars and fifty cents, and I'll sell it to you!"

to be frank.

It only costs three or four yuan to manually add materials to this pallet truck, and it has been used for many years. At this price, Liu Fugui is eager to sell it.

When Lu Jiansheng heard this, he immediately became happy.

"Okay! Thank you, uncle!"

As he spoke, he counted out two yuan and fifty cents from the cents in his hand and handed them to Liu Fugui, who happily took them and left.

As soon as he took two steps, Liu Fugui forgot one thing: "What is Lu Jiansheng doing in this room? Why does it smell so good?"

Liu Fugui: "Hey, why doesn't this kid know to leave me alone?"

"What's wrong? What does Uncle Fugui want from you?"

As soon as she returned to the kitchen, Bai Ruoxi asked with concern.

"Nothing, I just bought Uncle Fugui's cart." Lu Jiansheng laughed.

This time Bai Ruoxi didn't accuse him of spending money randomly.

After Liu Fugui left, Tangtang and Xixi woke up on their own.

When they came out sleepy, Lu Jiansheng and Bai Ruoxi had already steamed the buns until they were almost done.

Two or three kilograms of flour,
  The steamed buns are all big and steaming, and the entire small courtyard is filled with the smell of heat.

The two little breast dumplings were attracted by the hot steam coming out of the pot.

Tangtang pointed to the big firewood pot and said: "Smoke~Dad, there is smoke coming from the pot~"

Xixi ran over and sniffed, with a smile on her face.

"Dad, it smells good."

The buns are almost steamed now.

Lu Jiansheng smiled and said: "Tangtang, come here, the heat is dangerous."

The little breasted dumpling immediately stepped back obediently.

Lu Jiansheng found a clean porcelain basin and lifted the lid of the firewood pot.

Suddenly I saw white smoke billowing.

At the same time, the heat, carrying the fragrance of flour, meat and wild vegetables, swept away instantly.

The two little guys were so greedy.

They all stood in a row, standing on tiptoes and looking into the pot.

Lu Jiansheng took out their small bowls, picked up the chopsticks, and each took a bun and put it into the bowl.

"Dad is going to finish steaming the buns. Tangtang Xixi will eat the buns by herself, okay?"

The two little breasted dumplings nodded eagerly.

Lu Jiansheng picked up the two bowls, blew on them, and then placed them on the small broken table.

The two small-breasted dumplings immediately happily sat down at the table, leaning out their little bodies, holding chopsticks, and struggling to pick up the buns.
  He puffed up his little cheeks and blew a few breaths.

Then, he took a bite.

The steaming aroma, accompanied by the delicious juice of the lean meat, flowed out in an instant.

It was the first time for the two little guys to eat steamed buns.
  As he ate big mouthfuls, his little cheeks were bulging, and his words were a bit slurred!
  "It's delicious, eh! Dad, it smells good."

Tangtang gave Lu Jiansheng a thumbs up.
