Tian Xinping was busy making fried fruits.
She has always thought about making fried fruits. As early as more than 20 years ago, when she and Zhou Guangyi got married, relatives on both sides of the wedding party would help make fried fruits and use them as snacks for guests at the wedding.
Before the main course is served, the guests can chat while eating fried fruits and cracking melon seeds. It is very pleasant.
After coming to Beijing, it seems that these things are no longer popular.
Firstly, making fried fruits is time-consuming and laborious, and none of my relatives and friends here in Beijing seem to know how to make these things. Secondly, there are many snacks and snacks in Beijing, and you can buy a bunch of them for only a dozen yuan. The taste is very good. It’s delicious, pretty, and high-end, so I don’t even bother to put in the effort.
But where can I buy something as delicious as one made by myself? It is clean and hygienic.
Besides, the three little ones are growing teeth, so they can make some fried fruits to use as teething sticks. Ning Jing also has to bring food to school. These fried fruits are delicious and easy to store. Zhou Zhigao and Su Mang are both very busy at work, so they can make them for them. Some can also be eaten for breakfast.
It’s just that making fried fruits is too laborious. You need to mix the dough with egg whites and sugar. After kneading the dough, you have to knead it vigorously. It doesn’t count that the dough is kneaded into a smooth dough. You have to knead it hard until the dough is very chewy and you can pull a piece of it from the dough. The dough is considered good when it is not easy to tear.
The noodles need to rise for a while, so Tian Xinping hurriedly went to fry the peanuts after finishing the noodles.
She was preparing to have a big fight today. It was rare for the three children to follow Chunhua and be very obedient.
In addition to making fried fruits, use peanuts, cooked sesame and brown sugar to make some puff pastry.
Puff pastry, also known as mille-feuille pastry, is made with peanut oil and flour, and stuffing made of peanut brown sugar or sesame brown sugar is placed inside. The patterns are pressed out with molds printed with various cute animal patterns, and then baked in a pan. Both sides are golden and shiny, which is a delicious and beautiful puff pastry.
Seeing Tian Xinping busy walking around the house, and the three children at home playing with their dolls, it was very easy to worry about. Chen Chunhua told Zhou Guangyi that she would go to the kitchen to help her aunt with work, and wait until the children were gone Honestly, she would just come over and play with the kids.
The peanuts were fried, and while they were cooling, Tian Xinping started mixing the peanut brown sugar filling again.
Seeing Chen Chunhua coming, Tian Xinping hurriedly spooned some of the mixed sesame brown sugar filling into a small bowl and stuffed it into Chen Chunhua's hand.
"Come and try the spring flowers. When Zhou Zhi was little, she was very greedy. Every time I made puff pastry, she would sneak into the kitchen to eat before I could put it into a small bowl for her.
This girl never admits that she ate it secretly. When I asked her why there was less stuffing, she always told me seriously that it must have been eaten by a cat that sneaked in from outside. How did she know that her little My face is covered with brown sugar and black sesame seeds, and I don’t even know it..."
Tian Xinping couldn't help laughing when talking about these things about Zhou Zhi's childhood.
Yesterday I was a greedy little girl, today I am a married daughter-in-law. Time flies so fast.
The stuffing tastes sweet and fragrant in the mouth. Being with Tian Xinping, who loves to smile, is kind, hardworking and capable, Chunhua's unhappiness feels a little better.
Chen Chunhua put the small bowl aside with a smile, washed her hands and began to rub off the red skin of the peanuts that had cooled down. After cleaning them, she used a rolling pin to roll them into fine pieces.
When Tian Xinping saw it, she praised her again. She had talked to Chunhua about making these pastries before, but Chunhua had never done such work before, and she actually remembered them all. She was really careful when working. The rolled-out peanuts are chopped evenly, which is the most suitable filling. I have to say that Chunhua is really a clever child.
This child had a hard life and suffered too much in the first half of his life. Fortunately, now the pain is over and he can live a good life.
When the peanut filling and sesame filling were ready, the two of them rolled out the dough and made the buns, chatting about home cooking while working.
"These days are getting better day by day, just like your eldest brother and your eldest sister-in-law. When they were in Zhoujiatuan, they didn't even have new clothes when they got married, and they lived in a shabby house that others didn't want. The doors and windows have fallen off, who would have thought that two people would be like this now?"
"Just like you and Da Niu, if you go to school hard, and once you get a formal job, life with Da Niu will definitely get better day by day, and the couple will have to live together..."
Tian Xinping suddenly realized that something was not right. Chen Chunhua's eyes were very red, and tears kept rolling in her eyes.
"Spring flowers... spring flowers..."
Tian Xinping called out Chunhua's name in a hurry, feeling extremely panicked. Could it be that the young couple had a quarrel?
Chen Chunhua felt she had lost her composure and hurriedly raised her head and forced a smile.
"Auntie, I didn't sleep well last night. My nose kept feeling sore, as if I had a cold..."
"Go and lie down and have a rest. I can handle all this work by myself... I'm busy every day during the day and at night. I can't bear it even if I'm a tough guy. I'll make you some ginger soup right now. You go outside and let me have some rest." Your uncle will find you some cold medicine..."
Tian Xinping got up in a panic and went to find ginger to make ginger soup.
"It's okay, Auntie, I never catch a cold. If I feel a little uncomfortable, just drink more water and it will be fine..."
When Tian Xinping stood up and turned her back, she took a deep breath and held back the tears in her eyes.
She cannot affect the Zhou family because of her personal mood.
There is indeed something on Daniel's mind. He said some things after being drunk last night. It was just because his father and mother couldn't get on the stage and came to embarrass him.
Her parents said that Chen Chunhua was not clear with Zhou Zhiyuan. These words offended the Zhou family. Now that he has made many mistakes one after another, and now it is the military reform, whether he can stay in the army in the future has become a question. , Zhou Zhiyuan will not help him if he offends the Zhou family...
Sun Daniu also said that since Zhou Zhiyuan is good to her, let her look for Zhou Zhiyuan when she has time. If not, she can also look for Zhou Guangyi, and talked about his staying in the team. As long as he stays, he will be a national worker and there will be a future. A job that guarantees harvests during droughts and floods, otherwise he would be powerless, where would he be in the future...
Chen Chunhua would never say this.
She felt like this Sun Daniu had the nerve to say these things.
At first, she sympathized with Sun Daniu. Sun Biaozi's unreasonable parents were also unlucky for him. It was understandable that the old couple were ignorant and ignorant and did stupid things.
But he, Sun Daniu, has been working for many years and has been trained in the army for many years. He is also a platoon leader level figure, but his consciousness is so low?
The saddest thing is his attitude. He actually said that there is no smoke without fire. Everyone is spreading rumors about Chen Chunhua and Zhou Zhiyuan, saying that he married Zhou Zhiyuan's housekeeper, and that he and Zhou Zhiyuan are brothers-in-law...
What he said was just mindless. The Zhou family was extremely kind to her, especially Zhou Zhiyuan and his wife. They had saved her twice and helped her find a place to stay in Beijing. But now Because she discredited Zhou Zhiyuan, what did Sun Daniu think?
