Chapter 48 Mixed millet 1

I moved from my mother-in-law's house to the street. I bought a stick of red plum cigarettes, vermicelli, dried kelp, fungus, peanuts, green peppers, tomato tomatoes, etc. I also made an appointment with the butcher selling pork to save the liver and small intestines for me tomorrow morning.

, about five kilograms of preserved rib meat. Then I went to a steamed bun shop and asked the boss for some yeast noodles.

Put it away at home. Call Brother Jun to ask Aunt Wenying and Uncle Baobao to help me mix the millet tomorrow morning. After thinking about it, father-in-law, mother-in-law, uncle, aunt, second aunt, third aunt, Aunt Wenying,

My uncle, my uncle, is already eight adults. In addition to our three brothers, Aunt Wenying’s three daughters, and my uncle’s two sons, there are now sixteen people. If we just harvest the farmland,

More than enough.

So I hurried out to check the condition of the paddy fields. If the grains in the paddy fields reached the harvesting standard, I would harvest them together to avoid further trouble.

I hurried to the paddy field and took a look, wow! The season is really here. The ears of grain hung heavily, fully reaching the harvest standard. I saw the golden grain fields swaying gently in the wind, like Mother Earth shaking the golden carpet slightly.

Look at the millet in the rice field and it's still almost ready. It's only been three to five days. Go home quickly.

When I passed by the door of Mrs. Fan's house, I glanced at someone at home. I knocked on the door, and Mrs. Fan's daughter-in-law came to open the door. I asked her to help me mix the millet tomorrow. She agreed with a smile, and I was very special.

I made a request, hoping that she could come and help me cook as soon as possible. She also wholeheartedly agreed.

When I walked to the door of my house, I still felt that I was not secure enough, so I went to my uncle's house and asked my uncle and aunt to help me mix the millet tomorrow. They also agreed wholeheartedly.

When I got home, I followed the way I used to watch the adults mixing millet at home. I scooped out two liters of flour from the flour bag and poured it into the big basin. I felt that it was still a little less, so I scooped out another liter of flour and poured it into the big basin.

Put a lump of yeast dough into a large bowl, add cold water to dilute it evenly, then pour it into a large basin, add an appropriate amount of water, and start kneading the dough. When it is evenly mixed, cover it with a large lid and put it on the table to ferment.

As soon as we made the noodles, Aunt Wenying came in. Seeing that my hands were still sticky with flour, she said, "Auntie, are you going to treat us with steamed buns tomorrow?"

While I was washing my hands with water in a small basin, I said: "I plan to wash out the bacon and sausage today. Then steam the steamed buns. I will bring (buy) some bean sprouts tomorrow morning. When everyone comes to eat bean curd rice, I will mix the millet."

When the beating was almost done, some people came back carrying millet, steamed the steamed buns, cut the bacon sausages, brought some fermented bean curd, brought a pot of pickled cabbage soup, and brought some apples and pears to eat. After eating, rest for a while and continue working. Try to work hard.

Finish both fields."

After Aunt Wenying heard what I said, she quickly said: "You are very big-hearted. Your parents work separately in the fields and paddy fields at home. You want to work together. I have thought about inviting a lot of people."

Are you ready to cook a lot of food?"

I explained the situation of the people I invited one by one. When Aunt Wenying heard this, she said: "The people are about the same, and the meat is about the same. Your child is very thoughtful, and you have considered both adults and children. Just a mixing bucket may not be enough."

, and I need to borrow another one. In this way, the two mixing barrels can be dried at the same time, which is more efficient. In addition, it is a bit of a waste of manpower and energy to just rely on people to carry the millet. I suggest you borrow a cart and use your pockets to load it.

Pick up the millet and drag it. This saves effort and saves labor."

When I heard it, I thought this was a good suggestion. It was indeed a lack of experience and a lack of thorough consideration. Where could I borrow another mixing bucket?

She must have noticed my difficulty. Aunt Wenying burst out laughing. I asked, "What are you laughing at?"

She said: "Are you thinking about borrowing a mixing bucket from there?"

I said, "Yeah. I really don't know where to borrow it."

Aunt Wenying said: "I have one at home, so don't worry. Just ask your uncle to carry it tomorrow."

Then she added: "Tomorrow I will help you in the field to help you mix the millet. You should go and mix it in the morning. I estimate that the time will be almost finished, and you will come back to get food. I will organize

Everyone moved the mixing buckets to the paddy fields and sent them to the paddy fields when they were ready."

I said, "That's great. I'll ask my two younger sisters to help with the washing and cooking."

Aunt Wenying said: "Don't worry about this. When the millet is almost mixed in the afternoon, I will ask them to come back first to help."

When I finished, I asked Xiaojie to help get some bacon and sausages. Aunt Wenying helped cook and wash the meat. I asked Brother Jun to go to Mrs. Fan's house and ask if his pallet truck was at home.

He said he could borrow it tomorrow.

Then arrange for Xiaojie to clear out all the pockets at home and prepare them (write names on the pockets), and then put the "Jia Bei" (a back bamboo basket used for carrying relatively small items such as millet, rice, rapeseed, etc.) from Li

The outer two layers of bamboo stilts are composed of structures, which are more delicate than the "Xinbei Zhuan").

After washing the meat, the noodles were almost fermented. Aunt Wenying instructed me to add soda ash and knead the dough. First, make a small lump and steam it in a pot. The procedure is the same. Let the water boil and steam for fifteen to twenty minutes.

minute.

Then I opened the lid of the pot, picked out the "steamed buns" with chopsticks, broke off a piece and put it in my mouth to taste. It was very fragrant, but there was still a slight sour taste in it. I quickly broke off a piece and gave it to Aunt Wenying to taste.

.

After she tasted it, she said: "There is a little less alkali added."

Carefully added some alkali. When Aunt Wenying took a look, she probably felt that "children cannot be taught", right? She directly pulled the basin in front of her and started to add alkali by herself. After adding it, she kneaded the dough vigorously.

She was sweating from the kneading. After kneading, she sprinkled some flour directly on the table, then twisted out a ball of dough, and used her hands to do magic to shape the dough into a long strip. Then she picked up the kitchen knife and bang-dang-dang,

Quickly cut out uniform dough pieces. Open the lid of the pot, apply some vegetable oil on the steam grid, pick up the dough pieces and put them on top, and cover the pot.

Twenty minutes later, a pot of steamed buns that looked very good came out of the pot. Everyone was eating and cooking at the same time. It was not until late at night that the preparations were completed.
Chapter completed!
