The struggle history of dressing up as Gone with the Wind

Chapter 640 Preparations for the New Year 【Part [-]】

In the afternoon of the second day, Zhao Lan'er and He Hui came to the door with bean noodles, white noodles, and wild vegetables.Guo Xiu was already awake when they came. She ate some jujubes to pad her stomach and entered the kitchen with Cao Shi and the others. The kitchen seemed a bit crowded when six people rushed into it. Guo Xiu and Zhao Laner looked at each other. With a glance, he stepped back and directed the four people to make noodles, each with a big basin.

Xiao Shitou's job was easier. He and Shi had the least amount of white flour, and Cao Shi and the others had bean flour, sorghum flour, and chestnut flour.

Dou Dou kneaded his face and said in surprise; "I never knew that kneading is so tiring before."

"So don't think that housework is a trivial matter. My sister-in-law and I are not idle on weekdays."

"Eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law have worked hard, just leave any work to us these days."

Guo Xiu and the two sat on the side and ate jujubes and drank tea casually, directing the four of them: "You all work harder, so that the steamed corn bread and white noodles will be delicious."

"Hey!" Cao Shi and the others don't mention how obedient they are. After about a quarter of an hour, Guo Xiu and the others stood up and checked, and when they thought it was all right, they asked them to move the noodles to the Westinghouse Pit, so that the noodles would be better. of fermentation.Don’t think that everything will be fine after mixing the noodles. Cao Shi and the others are still busy. Although there are two bags of white flour and some wheat at home, no one is willing to eat them, so they only steamed more than 30 white flour steamed buns , as long as this is still a month's ration, even counting Uncle Bai's share, if Guo Xiu hadn't strongly suggested to eat white flour steamed buns for the New Year's meal, Cao Shi and the others probably wouldn't agree to steam so much!Even if the steamed buns are mainly steamed buns, it is impossible to use all the noodles, and some vegetables, meat, and some boiled and preserved roots must be added to it.

The four put the noodles on the pit, and took the dried wild vegetables, mushrooms, fungus, meat, tree roots, etc. into the kitchen. The four went back and forth twice to prepare everything.At the same time, Guo Xiu and Zhao Lan'er had boiled two pots of boiling water.

Cao Shi scooped up some hot water and mixed some cold water into the basin without the woman commanding him. He looked at He Hui and the three of them and said in a hurry; "Second brother, put the wild vegetables into the hot water for a while. Fish again, and the same goes for the third brother, small stone mushrooms and tree roots."

Guo Xiu and the two looked at each other and laughed. They cut the marinated meat into pieces, put them into the pot, and added some water to cook.

All kinds of dishes are prepared and then chopped up like dumpling stuffing. It is good to mix it with mixed noodles and steam steamed buns.Wanting to chop all kinds of ingredients to be the same as dumpling fillings is a physical effort and there is no rush. The four of them discussed the division of labor and cooperated with each other and then put them together.

Guo Xiu and Zhao Lan'er saw that they had discussed it, took out the cooked meat, and ordered Cao Shi to cut it into small pieces, which would make it easier to chop. When Cao Shi distributed the cut meat to He Hui and the others, Guo Xiu The two of Xiu entered the main hall, and there was nothing for them to do, and they stopped making trouble in the kitchen.

The two sat around the brazier doing needlework, listening to the sound of the kitchen, there was peace in their hearts.At this time, there are many people like the Cao family in the whole valley. The new year is coming soon, and everyone is busy. It is not easy all year round. Everyone wants to have a good year. Besides, the family has enough food, so they are also thinking about it.
