Spring scenery in the fields

Chapter 265 Giving Dumplings

She nodded somewhat aggrievedly, as no one from her family came to see her.

"Okay, don't cry. I'm here. I'll cook some meat for lunch and see if you can eat it."

"it is good."

Yes, she has him, and her sister-in-law and others, and there are people who care about her.

On the way back, Ji Wenhe held his arm and said, "Da Li is really good to her. I am completely relieved."

The house inside and outside is kept clean and tidy. She said that Liu Dali did it all by herself. Since she got married, she was rarely allowed to get involved in the farm work at home.

"Dali is a good person and a good hunter. When you want to come, I will bring you to see her."

Liu Dali has a simple mind and doesn't think too much about twists and turns. He can also have a say in some matters in the village.

"it is good."

The winter solstice.

Ji Wenhe scooped two bowls of white flour into the basin: "Wenshan, you can add more later. Pack more and put them aside. Cook them when you want to eat in the morning."

Yesterday I went to town and bought two pounds of fatty pork and one pound of lean meat, chopped them into stuffing, and stuffed them with different fillings.

Shen Yuanshan chopped up the soaked winter melon and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't eat fat, so pack the lean meat separately."

Pinch the two corners into a circle and put them together for easy distinction.

"Okay, pack more sour beans."

Ji Wenhe went into the house, took out a white cloth, washed it clean, wrapped the cabbage in it, and squeezed out the water inside.

Seeing Shen Rongshan coming back, he said, "Brother Shen, you are strong, you come."

"Wait, I'll bring in some firewood."

Four people were busy preparing the fillings, rolling out the dough, and making dumplings.

Shen Yuanshan got up after wrapping half of the dumplings: "I'll go boil some water."

"Go ahead." Ji Wenhe looked at the fillings in the bowl, "Is the dough enough to wrap it? It should be about right."

Shen Rongshan replied: "If it's not enough, knead some more dough."

"Let's talk about it after we finish wrapping." Shen Wenshan felt it was not enough.

"Wait until the end of the month, buy some meat and pickle it, and also buy a big clay pot."

There is a three-pound clay pot at home filled with pickled sour beans.

Shen Yuanshan sighed, resting his chin on his hand and looking at the fire in the stove: "It seems that we will really have to buy goods once a month in the future."

We purchased the goods at the beginning of the month, but only half of them have been sold so far.

Ji Wenhe explained: "It's just one month, think positively, it's not like we don't make money, it's just less than before."

Having said that, he still felt a little sad because he would lose a lot of money.

"By the way, Brother Shen, please send a bowl of dumplings to Uncle Da Nian later."

Yesterday I asked him to tell Zhu Danian to come to their house for dinner this morning, but he said he couldn't come.

"Yes." Shen Rongshan put down the dumplings he had wrapped. "Master caught a cold the day before yesterday. I'm worried. I'll ask the doctor to come over and take a look at him after dinner."

"Okay, if it's serious, we'll cook and send it over these few days. Don't let him cook by himself."

He ate at home alone and just had a quick bite.

I am fifty-five this year, which is not young anymore. I should take good care of my health.

"How about I go with you later?"

"Brother, the water is boiling." Shen Yuanshan shouted.

Shen Rongshan walked over with dumplings in his hand: "Don't go, wait until Master gets better before going to see him."

Ji Wenhe no longer insisted. She had a runny nose these past two days. She didn't know if it was because she had gone to the bathroom in the middle of the night and caught a cold from the sudden change of temperature.

"By the way, I saw An Guo coming back yesterday."

When he was returning from his master's house, Shen Anguo was walking in front of him and did not stop him or ask anything.

"Why did he come back so early? Didn't Aunt Lan say he would wait until the New Year?"

Shen Wenshan took over the conversation: "Let's look at the marriage. Aunt Lan is very anxious. It didn't work out last time. After Fei Ling got married, Aunt Lan became even more anxious."

She nodded: "Maybe."

The most anxious people in the village were Lan Qiuhua and Miao Zhaodi.

Shen Liang’s birthday is March 7th. After his birthday, he will be twenty years old and will look even uglier.

I heard from several of them that they don't look down on unmarried girls, so they will most likely only date widows or those who have been divorced.

But not necessarily.

When the dumplings were cooked, Shen Rongshan put the dumplings with corners into a bowl and said, "Wen He, this bowl is yours."

Ji Wenhe walked over with a smile.

"Be careful of the burn."

She took the bowl and placed it steadily on the table: "I'll eat first. I won't wait for you."

I picked up the chopsticks, picked up a dumpling, blew on it, and took a light bite. It was filled with sour beans and lean meat.

"I think the sour beans and meat buns are the best." Sour and spicy.

Shen Wenshan sat opposite her and said, "Sister-in-law, you put too much chili."

There was already chili in the sour beans, so she added a spoonful of chili sauce and mixed it with the stuffing. The spicy smell was so strong that it hit her nose.

The three of them can't eat anything too spicy and can only eat something slightly spicy.

"You don't understand. For someone who loves spicy food, if the food isn't spicy, it won't taste half as good."

Shen Rongshan looked at her lovingly: "Slow down, be careful of the heat."

She nodded and looked at the dipping sauce: "If you guys can't eat spicy food, I would put a spoonful of hot sauce in it."

In my previous life, I could eat very spicy food, but there was one thing: after eating spicy food, I would get pimples on my back and face.

If you don’t eat, you won’t grow; if you eat, you will grow.

I went to the hospital specially, and the doctor said: Then you should not eat spicy food in the future.

...How could she bear it? She had to eat it anyway.

When she first came here, her family was poor and she couldn't afford to be picky, but she could tolerate it due to her health.

But after knowing there was chili here, she couldn't bear it anymore.

Shen Rongshan finished his meal quickly and drank another bowl of vegetable soup: "You guys take your time eating, I'll go take food to Master."

"Okay, you use the clay pot to serve the soup, do you want the dipping sauce?" He remembered that sick people should eat less spicy food, "The dipping sauce is a little spicy, so forget it."

He went into the house, took the basket, put a bowl of dumplings in it, covered it with the bowl, put the pottery jar in as well, carried the basket, and walked down the mountain steadily.

When we arrived at Zhaojia Village, we saw him open the door and come out of the house from afar.

He walked over quickly and pushed open the gate: "Master, are you getting up just now when I bring you dumplings?"

Zhu Danian coughed twice and said, "Rongshan, I'm feeling better now. Let me get up and cook some food for them."

He had no appetite and drank half a bowl of cold water.

Shen Rongshan put the basket on the table: "Master, eat some dumplings and drink some soup, I will cook."

Two big black dogs circled around him twice, staring at the dumplings in the bowl eagerly.

"Ahem, I don't have much appetite."

"Then eat something and drink some vegetable soup. Did you have dinner last night?"

Zhu Danian sat on a small stool and took a sip of the soup in the bowl: "I have no appetite these past two days and can't eat."

"Master, I will ask a doctor to come and take a look at you."

"I went to their house last night and they wanted to prescribe some medicine for me, but I refused."

I had a headache and a fever before, but I got through it on my own.

Shen Rongshan was worried: "I'll go find Doctor Zhao to prescribe some medicine. I'll get better soon after I drink it."

Zhu Danian waved his hand: "It's no big deal, I know what's going on, cook some food for them."

Two big black dogs barked twice.
