The ancient daily life of a farmer's daughter-in-law

Chapter 119

Just to say that the old house of the Tian family in Chaohegou was lively on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month. The reason was naturally that Tian Tieshi moved, and Li Qingnuan happily gave a lot of snacks to the villagers who came to help with a big belly.

Although moving to a new home has to buy property, but now the shops in the town are closed, and there is no place to buy things for a while.In addition, Li Qingnuan didn't have so many taboos in the first place, and she had other plans for the remaining money.So I asked the neighbors who came to help to directly arrange the used objects from the old house.

After the kang cabinets, tables and chairs were all settled, Tian Tieshi rushed into the house with some big dry firewood.Although the house looks bright, it has been empty for some days, so there must be a lot of damp.Burn it with a big fire, one is to burn off the moisture on the kang, and the other is to fume the house with heat.

After the water in the pot boiled, Li Qingnuan mixed some batter in the bowl to paste the window paper and window grilles couplets.

The batter is no better than putty, it was originally used to stick paper objects while it was hot, so before it cooled completely, Li Qingnuan quickly asked Tian Tieshi to spread out a large piece of window paper and apply it.At the end, she wiped the window lattice with corn stalks and batter.

The work of pasting window paper seems to be unskilled.But Li Qingnuan knew that if his hands and feet were really clumsy, the batter might flow onto the cut white window paper, leaving ugly marks in the end.Or a strong hand might puncture the paper, and she has always believed that she is better than Tian Tieshi in doing meticulous work, so she glanced at the man who was sitting on the edge of the Kang and stirring the dough, and stretched out her hand to reach it. It's time to put up window paper.

After a while, Li Qingnuan quickly changed the window paper in several rooms.Of course, she didn't move a single place, and the man holding the window paper and holding the batter would always follow behind her.

The window paper was originally white, but it didn't affect the lighting too much, at least the room was bright.

The comfortable days without the best products always pass quickly. These days, Lin Yueniang and He Shi have come to visit her from time to time, and she will try to improve her way of making duck intestines every day, and ask the two of them to help and give advice .When the two of them left, she even gave out a lot of spicy duck sausages for people to take back for a taste.

Without the bad people and things, Li Qingnuan can be regarded as a hearty and fat body, and her thin and yellow cheeks are moist and rosy.Tian Tieshi felt itchy every time he watched it, and couldn't help but go out holding his nose.

All the work at home has been done, and the gifts from each family have been delivered in advance, so Li Qingnuan has been sleeping three days a day for the past few days.Tian Tieshi has nothing to do, and he doesn't rush to cook when he wakes up every day. He always hugs his wife, kneads and squeezes to give birth, and then stays by her side without moving.

On New Year's Eve, every family's table is filled with food that is not available on weekdays, such as white steamed buns, flower rolls, soup dumplings, meat, vegetables, and dumplings.

Naturally, Li Qingnuan was no different from Tian Tieshi.

The dumplings were made by the two of them the night before. The half-fat pork was minced and oiled, and then some minced green onion and ginger were added and mixed with seasonings to make a pot of oily meat filling.The reconciled dumpling noodles are not mixed with corn noodles or anything, and they are white and soft, which is very attractive.

Although it was only for the two of them to celebrate the New Year, they still made a lot of dumplings. Except for the dozens cooked on New Year's Eve, the rest were stacked on grate sewn from sorghum stalks and frozen in a large urn.This can be regarded as the staple food for the six or seven days until the sixth day of the first lunar month.

A long time ago, Li Qingnuan took the chicken, duck and fish that he bought earlier and warmed them on the grate, in order to melt the ice that had frozen inside.While lighting the fire, Tian Tieshi peeled melon seeds and stuffed them into his daughter-in-law's mouth.Every time, I will get an appreciative look from my daughter-in-law, and then continue to peel melon seeds with a happy heart.

Seeing that the chickens and ducks were starting to drip, Li Qingnuan hurriedly got them out, scooped up some hot water from the pot and poured it into a basin for Tian Tieshi to wash.While watching Tian Tieshi neatly tidy up the meat, Li Qingnuan pointed at the chickens and ducks in the basin and thought about how to make them delicious.

The chicken can be cut into pieces, then fried, and put into a pot to simmer.Duck meat can be baked with some fruit wood and honey.As for the fish, whether it is braised in soy sauce or fried with minced ginger and spring onion and then stewed over low heat, it can be said that it is not a delicacy.

After thinking about how to do it, she got up and pulled a piece of cleaned pork belly, carefully cut the meat into small pieces, then grabbed a handful of sweet potato powder and marinated it with fine salt, pepper water, sauce, onion, ginger and garlic .

It's Chinese New Year, who can't fry some meat jokes?

After Li Qingnuan finished his work, Tian Tieshi's chicken, duck and fish were also cleaned up.Chop the chicken into chunks and put it in a small vegetable bowl. After that, Li Qingnuan melted some salt water and poured it in.
