Song Chunfang nodded: "That's the truth. We are all women. If we compare our hearts, we will definitely know Sanya's grievances!"
"Yes, yes, our whole family will definitely treat her well!" Shuanzhu Niang promised.
Although Song Chunfang saw that Shuanzhu Niang had a good attitude, when she first arrived, she heard Shuanzhu Niang scolding her for breaking her horse and Zhang Fei.
Knowing that she might not really be convinced, she half-threatened and half-advised: "Sister-in-law, it's best if you think so! Sister-in-law, if something happens to your family again, whether it's the brigade or me, the women's director, they will It’s up to Sanya to make the decision!”
After Mother Shuanzhu made repeated promises, she sent Song Chunfang away as an "uninvited guest".
Mother Shuan Zhu was filled with hatred, and she didn't dare to do anything to Wen Sanya, this terrible daughter-in-law. After all, the daughter-in-law here would fucking complain!
———————————————
As soon as we enter the twelfth lunar month, the flavor of the New Year becomes more and more intense.
There is such a nursery rhyme:
Don’t be greedy, little kids, it’s the New Year after Laba.
Laba porridge, drink it for a few days;
Lili lala twenty-three, twenty-three, sticky melon;
Twenty-four, sweep the house; twenty-five, paste the windows;
Twenty-six, stew the meat; twenty-seven, slaughter the rooster;
Twenty-eight, make the dough; twenty-nine, steam the steamed buns;
On the 30th night, we had a night of trouble, and on New Year's Day we had a lot of fun.
Yang Rui and Wen Nuan strictly followed this standard and lived a very interesting life every day. They happily prepared for the first New Year of their little family every day.
On the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month, it is also the day of Xiaonian.
Even though there were no children at home, the two still made Tanggua.
A bowl of white sesame seeds. After washing them, burn them over a fire to dry them!
This step is very critical. If the white sesame seeds are not washed, there may be dirt in them, which will be ugly when eaten after making them.
Similarly, if it is not dried, it will also affect the final taste.
Heat the oil in a pan and add a handful of rock sugar. If you don’t have maltose at home, it will be delicious if you add rock sugar.
When the sugar in the large iron pot is bubbling slightly, add the previously dried white sesame seeds into the pot.
Yang Rui took the spatula and kept stirring. This step is a test of one's skill.
If it is done by inexperienced or unskilled people, it will easily get confused.
However, Yang Rui, a chef who had never cooked before, succeeded immediately!
Nuan Nuan clapped beside him: "You are too awesome! You can do this even if you have never done it before. This is great! You are too awesome. Wait for next year, no, wait for the year after that. Me and the children Then I can all eat the sugar melon you made!"
Nuan Nuan suddenly remembered that next year, the child would be only a few months old and would not be able to eat these things.
Yang Rui didn't notice the warm words, but instead showed a proud expression to his wife: "Really? I knew I was good, and this time I will do it for you! I will do it for you next year, and for you the year after that." You do it with your children..."
Wen Nuan nodded with a smile. This man of his has become more and more capable and versatile!
Yang Rui and other white sesame seeds have been coated in syrup and stir-fried. Take out the fried sesame candy, place it on the chopping board, use a rolling pin to roll it flat, and when it is almost dry, use a knife to cut it into pieces. of.
Wen Nuan picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It was really fragrant and sweet, especially delicious.
Compared with the white and round ones in Nuan Nuan's memory, and the long ones, the two kinds of sugar melons bought are much more delicious!
While Nuan Nuan was eating, Yang Rui asked her a question: "Daughter-in-law, do you know why every year on the New Year's Eve, you have to make sugar melons and sacrifice them to the Stove Lord?"
This is not a problem for Wen Nuan, who has indeed heard this allusion: "I heard people say it's because in the younger years, it was the day when the Kitchen God reported his work to the Jade Emperor!
He had to report to the Jade Emperor what he saw in the world this year, such as what the people ate and what they used.
The purpose of eating sugar melons for the Stove Lord is to make the Stove Lord sweet and say nice things, so that we ordinary people can live a better life! "
After hearing Wen Nuan's explanation, Yang Rui felt that it was a little different from his own knowledge, so he told what he knew: "Daughter-in-law, what we both know is that the front is the same, that is, the last one, you said it was for the Stove Lord to sweeten your mouth , let him say something nice.
What I know is that I gave the Stove Lord some sugar melons, just to make him unable to open his mouth with sugar. If he couldn’t open his mouth, I couldn’t tell the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor didn't know that there were so many delicious foods in the world, so he would not send heavenly soldiers and generals down to earth to snatch food from the common people. "
As soon as he mentioned this, Nuan Nuan began to quibble: "Given the conditions of this era, even if the Jade Emperor comes, he will have to leave in tears. At most, he will bring two taels of stick noodles with him!"
Yang Rui: ...Daughter-in-law, what you said makes sense!
Wen Nuan added: "Also, the Jade Emperor is not allowed to take two more sweet potatoes with him. He may say that sweet potatoes are something that mortals will get slapped after eating them, so it is better to leave them to the immortal family!"
Yang Rui couldn't help it and laughed out loud: "Daughter-in-law, you are so talented!"
