"But why do I think Guabao's face looks more like milk cake?!" Qu Baoshan from the back table also joined in. When he mentioned milk cake, he almost burst into laughter.
"It's more like milk tofu! My dad brought a big bagful of it when he came back from Northern Inner Mongolia Province. It's fragrant and sweet. Oh my, I want to eat it again~" said Qu Mancang, who was separated from Xiao Qu Ning by a narrow aisle. As I talked, I became greedy.
"Stop talking, you're making me hungry..." Qu Xiaomei at the front table turned around and said, with their hands covering their stomachs, their eyes drifted straight to Xiao Qu Ning's face, especially when the word "hungry" was mentioned. .
Inexplicably, Qu Ning felt a little pain on her cheek. She couldn't help but raise her hand and rub it. She also thought about it in her mind. Otherwise, she should work hard and skip the grade? !
The little brothers and sisters she had interacted with before didn't say they wanted to take a bite of her. Are the thoughts of people her age so dangerous? !
When school was over at noon, Nan Ting and Luo Quan came to take Xiao Qu Ning home. What they saw was her stern face, as if she was thinking about major events in life. Of course they both had to care. The first thing they said when they met was to ask her what was wrong. The two brothers were afraid that some naughty boy in Xiao Qu Ning's class would bully her.
"It's okay, it's okay~" Qu Ning shook her little hand, then pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I was thinking, should I skip to the senior year?"
"Yes, yes!" Qu Luoquan nodded frantically. He was afraid that if he reacted slowly, Guobao would change his mind, "Little aunt, I know you love me...and my brother the most. Why don't we jump to the dance tomorrow?" Fifth grade, don’t hesitate!”
Originally, Qu Luoquan had no intention of mentioning his brother Nanting, but when he said that, Nanting started coughing and coughing, deliberately reminding him, so he added a few more words.
"Don't come up with blind ideas!" Of course Qu Nanting also wanted to take classes with Xiao Qu Ning, but he thought more about it, mainly because Xiao Qu Ning couldn't keep up with the fifth grade courses. If he really skipped a grade, he would be afraid of treating her in the future. not good. He thought things should be done like this, "Don't make any noise when you get back. Please ask Brother Hongwei and the others to come up with questions to test my aunt. If she can really keep up with the fifth grade class, let's talk about this matter."
"Hey, that's right!" Qu Luoquan's hands landed on Qu Nanting's back one after another. He didn't take advantage of the opportunity, he was just dizzy with joy. He felt that his brother's proposal couldn't be more reliable.
When he got home, Luo Quan behaved like a big rooster that had won a fight, triumphant and proud. His chin was tilted slightly, his thick arms were spread out, and his chest was high. When his eyes swept over everyone, he felt an inexplicable sense of superiority - hum, my dear aunt decided to skip a grade for us. She loves us the most, no doubt about it!
That’s how confident you are~
Originally, they planned to secretly ask Qu Hongwei to give the questions, but they did not avoid the others. Within five minutes, everyone in the family knew that Xiao Qu Ning planned to skip a grade.
Seeing that he could no longer hide the matter, Qu Luoquan simply shook it all off. His main point was, "My little aunt is the most jealous of me. During breakfast, I really just acted coquettishly and said that I wanted my little aunt." I was promoted to fifth grade earlier, but I didn’t expect that she would remember it in my heart and think about it seriously. Oh my, I like my little aunt the most!"
The whole family cast accusing glances at Xiao Qu Ning. They were biased. How could they be so biased? They quit!
Qu Ning: I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!
She was so wronged.
But after she explained it, everyone immediately chose to believe it. Of course, it was mainly because they didn't want to believe what Qu Luoquan said. Oh, it was too late to spurn him.
"Hahahaha, you're so pretentious!"
"I still miss you the most?! What a beautiful thought, hahahahaha."
"People have to be confident, but they can't be overconfident..."
"That's right, that's right, the person you love the most is me!"
"Bah, bah, bah~"
"..."
As they talked, those who had made concerted efforts to laugh at Luo Quan actually started to quarrel with each other, and the scene was very lively for a time. In the end, it became a familiar scene again. They asked Guabao to tell her who she was best with in this family.
Oops, headache, distress!
They all blame her for being so popular!
"Brother, when are you going to give the question? I want to try it, maybe I can do it -" Qu Ning did not answer, but changed the subject while holding his little head, "I have learned everything my brothers have taught me. Remember, you will know a lot!"
"It will definitely work, our dear baby is so smart!"
"Yes, yes, my dear baby started learning to count when he was four years old. I taught him."
"It's nothing. I read the junior high school text to my dear baby a while ago, and he remembered it after listening to it once!"
"Brother Hongwei, what are you doing? Go quickly!"
…
Qu Hongjun and Qu Guoqing transformed themselves into landlords and rich men. They didn't even ask Qu Hongwei to drink. After playing Qu Ning, they talked to each other and drove him into the room to ask questions. Fortunately, Qu Hongwei wanted to know the result as soon as possible, so he was not unhappy. It happened that the aid to Korea and aid to Xinjiang came at this time. As soon as they heard about this kind of thing, they immediately rushed to the Red Guard's house to help.
With the help of a serious primary school teacher named Yuanjiang, the questions came out quickly. They asked Xiao Quning to do math questions first, and then took the Chinese test. The questions were all from textbooks produced during the Great Revolution, and they had relatively few knowledge points and were simple. Xiao Qu Ning did it easily. She started learning these things when she was four years old. Her brothers taught her step by step in the evenings and during holidays in order to compete for her attention.
After being corrected on the spot by the Red Guards, Xiao Qu Ning’s math was correct, but he made a mistake in the Chinese language. This is already very good. This character is one of the most difficult characters in the list of difficult characters attached to the back of the textbook. Luo Quan is still a serious fifth-grade student, and he can't write this character.
As soon as the results came out, a wave of compliments came to Qu Ning, which made her face redder and redder, so red that it almost bled, and her little head wanted to plunge into the ground. She, she is ashamed. After all, she graduated from college in her previous life. She didn’t even get full marks in the Chinese language test for the fifth grade of elementary school. It’s shameful! It’s shameful!
In the eyes of her family, her appearance was considered modest, so the whole family praised her again. As she listened, she got used to it. This was all love. In the hearts of her family, no matter what she looked like, she was always the best.
How wonderful!
However, after much discussion as a family, they still didn't ask Xiao Qu Ning to jump to fifth grade immediately. She is still young and should enjoy a few years of primary school life. If she really jumps to the fifth grade, she will soon be promoted to junior high school, followed by high school, and then she will have to join the rest of the country to squeeze into the single-plank bridge of the college entrance examination. It is tiring, too tiring, but let them rest for a few years. Bar.
Qu Ning also figured it out. If she didn't skip a grade first, first grade would be so easy. She would have more time to do her own things in the future. She has to make a straw painting with her own hands before Professor Liu returns to the capital. She also has to study two ancient cookbooks picked up from the recycling bin. Her three brothers have to prepare for the college entrance examination. It is too hard. She has to make something delicious for them. They make up for it.
She needs time most now.
When Xiao Qu Ning first proposed to learn to cook, no one in the family supported her. Everyone refused to let her get involved with the idea, saying, "My dear baby is young and the kitchen is dangerous." But they couldn't stand Xiao Qu Ning's coquettish behavior and compromised one by one. However, the first time Xiao Qu Ning entered the kitchen, Qu Zhongdong, Yue Cuiyun and Guo Jing all followed her in. The three adults shared the tasks of washing, chopping and lighting the vegetables. .
The family was really willing to give it to Xiao Qu Ning to practice with the best piece of five-flowered three-layer without blinking an eye. She wanted to make Dongpo Pork with the traditional method. She had already memorized the steps in the recipe, and now she just needed practice.
"Grandma, grandma, help me cut the three-layered five-flowered cake into such big cubes." Qu Ning gestured with Yue Cuiyun with her little hand.
"Auntie, can you steam the yam for me?" She turned to Guo Jing and said.
"Grandpa, grandpa, where are the rock sugar and anise? Where is the sweet noodle sauce we made at home? Are there green peppercorns? And bean sprouts, have we distributed them today?" Immediately afterwards, Qu Ning pounced on Qu Ning again. Zhongdong came forward with a small mouth and asked several questions in succession.
Fortunately, they had all the materials at home, and it didn't take much effort to find what Qu Ning needed and put them in front of her. Okay, let's get started. Let's get started. In addition to the ancient Dongpo pork, she also plans to make red braised pork, and the recipe is also learned from ancient recipes. As for soup, she plans to make hot and sour soup. Although the autumn tiger is still very powerful at the moment, the more the weather is like this, the more people in her family like to eat spicy food.
With the help of three adults, all Xiao Quning had to do was fry the sugar, then add various seasonings and spices according to the recipe, and then control the heat. The ancient method of Dongpo pork and red braised pork requires only one word, "boil". The delicious taste is cooked over time.
In fact, the aroma is already wafting out of the meat as soon as it is coated in sugar. After waiting for soy sauce, anise and other seasonings, and stewing it for a while, the whole stove is filled with this fragrant and attractive taste. Guo Jing, who was adding firewood to the bellows in front of the firewood stove, kept swallowing her saliva. She couldn't help it. She really couldn't help it.
Speaking of Dongpo Pork, she had eaten it once or twice, but never once did she feel so greedy that she lost her mind. She had just started stewing, and the aroma was already so strong and alluring. If the heat was reached, she couldn't even imagine how greedy it would make people.
Qu Zhongdong and Yue Cuiyun were really no better than her. They had only eaten two handfuls of peanuts before entering the kitchen. Logically speaking, they shouldn't be hungry, but now, they smelled the strong aroma of meat in the kitchen. , their stomachs growled several times, it was because they were hungry.
"Can I still cook in the kitchen in the future?" When asked this question, Qu Ning smiled sweetly, with a little pride in his eyes.
"Can, can, can!"
"Who dares to say that you won't be allowed to enter the kitchen? I'm worried about him!"
"Why not? Auntie will help you every day, so don't worry!"
What, I was determined not to let my dear baby enter the kitchen before? ?
No, no, no, how is it possible, it’s not me!
How could the three of them admit it?
Is face important? ! It can't be eaten or drank. Dongpo meat is not delicious? ?
Look at the bright red color, the soft and fragrant meat skin, the fat part like gelatin, it seems to have melted in the mouth, but it is not greasy at all, the lean part is soft and tasty at all... How could it be bad? The food was so delicious that they almost went to heaven.
