Chapter Twelve Riches and Nobles

At noon, Aunt Li specially made a pancake. If relatives and friends come to Yongning, she will definitely use this local dish to entertain her.

The pancake tube is a thin and tough pasta wrapped with fried rice noodles, shredded eggs, mung bean sprouts, shredded potatoes, braised pork, shredded onion and other clinker ingredients. It not only has a rich taste, but also has a good color combination.

After rolling it and cutting it open, the white skin is red, yellow and golden, and green. Just looking at it with your eyes makes people salivate. Then pour a spoonful of braised pork gravy and seasoning, it is a delicious dish that is even more valuable.

The most interesting thing is to place these foods on the table one by one for others to use. Pack whatever you like, which is much more interesting than eating them on a plate after they are ready.

Speaking of Yongning, the place is not very sociable, it is probably reflected in the place of food. In other places, rice dumplings must be placed on Dragon Boat Festival, but Yongning eats food cakes.

At other times, if there are crowds and lively gatherings, they will definitely make pancakes to entertain guests. Because this dish has a nice alias, called "Fugui Fuquan".

I used gold jade (egg), white jade silk (mung bean sprouts), amber stone (braised pork)... to make ingredients, isn't it just "rich and full of honor".

The dishes of the dealer are no different from those of ordinary Yongning families, but they have more personal characteristics.

Boil the fresh and plump peas in water and then grind them into a paste, which is very green and very sweet. Scoop a spoonful and put them on the dough and wrap them with other things. The taste is really something I have eaten once, and it is unforgettable.

"Cousin, you're too big to wrap it. It's like a cannon barrel." Because they were all made by themselves, the final finished products are also different.

For example, the one in 6 Lieyi's hand is extremely huge. If Zhuang Shuyi asks him to get it, he can't even get it with both hands.

"You wrap it so finely, just how many you have to eat to eat." 6 Pingyi poured the gravy in, and then bit it down in one bite. It was full of oil in your mouth, which was so fragrant that it was satisfying.

"Cousin, you are stupid. Of course, you have to eat more combinations of so many kinds to make it enough." Zhuang Shuyi was not inferior to him, and ate the one in his hand in a few bites. The eggs were fried very tender in oil, and the braised pork had been torn into easy-to-get shreds. The celery was crisp and juicy at this time. When the three were combined, the long pancake tube disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"You're eating too fast." 6 Puyi had just eaten half of it, and when he looked up, Zhuang Shuyi's hands were empty.

"Cousin, you're too slow." Zhuang Shuyi began to wrap a new one happily again.

"Be careful not to choke." Yang Bo put the soup on her hand, and prepared a half-wet towel for her to wipe at any time. Even the emperor's close servant could only do this.

But he was unforgivable at all. "Drink soup. These seventy or eighty noodles are enough for you to eat."

"The jujube is not a pig, so how can I eat so many seventy or eighty, at most ten." 6 Puyi and him sang and teased Zhuang Shuyi.

Zhuang Shuyi only ate and had no words, so he rolled his eyes at them a few times.

"Don't be too noisy for you three." Zhuang Shuyi's mother Liu Jiaoying persuaded her when she saw that they were not very noisy.

"Yes, my aunt." 6 Puyi replied immediately.

"My mother, don't scare your cousin. It's a guest far away, how can you not let him eat?" Zhuang Shuyi was not afraid of his mother's cold face at all. She has always been a favored baby at home, and she is not afraid of the world. Such words can't scare her.

"Just Liuliu, you are not afraid. Sister-in-law, don't say it anymore. They are just children. It is normal to love to play and make fun." The second wife Wang Peifang smiled and joked.

"Don't eat or sleep." Liu Jiaoying said coldly.

"What my sister-in-law said is, what if the child choked?" Third wife Jiang Wenyin always liked to compete with the second wife, and said in agreement.

"If you don't say it, then don't say it. Zheng Ying left in the afternoon and asked their brothers and sisters to say a few more words. Zheng Ying likes Liuliu the most. Tingting and Sister Lan are not as good as those of you." Although the second wife Wang Peifang was helping Zhuang Shuyi and the others, it made people feel uncomfortable and sour.

Uncle Zhuang took a bite of her own pancake tube in embarrassment. As expected, the second aunt cared about her cousin not going to play with Sister Lan. But what could she say? Sister Lan was about to get married, and her cousin thought about avoiding suspicion and not looking for her. What could she do?

"You are wrong. My Tingting studied every day, of course she didn't have time to find Ying Ying late. Maybe Sister Lan didn't come for some reason. How could she blame us Liuliu?" said the third wife with a smile.

Now, the quarrel started to hurt again. Uncle Zhuang's head also began to hurt. Fortunately, these two aunts didn't live together, otherwise they would have been quarrel every day. Even now, they would not stop having a small meal.

The daughter of the second wife and Zhuang Shuyi's cousin Zhuang Jialan also had a headache.

It has been a day or two for her grandmother and her third aunt to be unconfronted. As her daughter, she is naturally on her mother's side. Even if her mother says something wrong, it is still a mother and she cannot tolerate others' words. But what her grandmother says makes people help, but she can't help, and it doesn't make sense at all.

"My mother, please say less. It's time to have a meal." Zhuang Shuting saw that Sister Lan's face was not good, so she hurriedly tried to smooth things over. Zhuang Shuting is the only daughter of the third wife, one year younger than Zhuang Shuyi.

"Sir, what's wrong with you and your children?" The third wife Jiang Wenyin scolded with a stern face. She is always kind to others, but she is always much more harsh to her own children.

Zhuang Shuting immediately became timid. The third wife didn't let her go.

"Have you finished your homework? I thought about going to the Mid-Autumn Festival temple fair yesterday. If I didn't do it well, I wouldn't allow you to go out and hang out. Now it's the Republic of China, and my daughter has nothing in her stomach. Who can look down on you? At least you have to read some English so that you can get in if someone talks."

"We Tingting is so beautiful, even if we are illiterate, some people are rushing to ask for it. Unlike our sister Lan, who only knows some girls and do housework. If it weren't for the old man's life, it would be difficult." The second wife was fanning the flames.

When the third wife heard her, she became even more unhappy. The old man’s old friend was from Beijing and he had been an official for generations. He had a son who wanted to marry the banker. Zhuang Jialan was as old as possible, so she made a marriage.

If Zhuang Shuting was two years older, I'm afraid there would be some discussions on this matter, which would be a pity.

The dealer has long been separated now. If Tingting wants to marry a high place, she can only rely on herself, and she cannot rely on the good reputation accumulated by the dealer for generations. After all, Zhuang Shuyi in the long house is not engaged yet.

Her Tingting is only one year younger, and it wouldn't be a big deal if she is much different. She is so close that she will be taken out to compare.

The master is the chief of the Education Bureau and has worked as an official in Beijing. The connections he accumulated back then are still useful now. Although the one who is a diplomat stationed overseas, she is not as good as the current one now.

If you have good friends, you will naturally go to the eldest house. Not to mention that the eldest daughter is a mess. Even if you lack arms and legs, you will not have to worry about it.

God is so determined that he is much more powerful than an old lady.
