Chapter 333 Green Leaf Rice Dumplings

Birthday cakes need to be refrigerated, otherwise, at the current outdoor temperature in Beiping, the cake would turn into a creamy paste if left outside for an hour.

Zhang Guanghang made a birthday cake, Wu Minqi finished carving a crane for Jiang Weiming's birthday, and Jiang Feng found a breakthrough point to complete Zhang Guanghang's side mission.The three of them had their own gains, and after packing up their things, they prepared to meet at Taifeng Building.

The highlight of this morning is making zongzi, and group activities of making zongzi are rare in August.

Zongzi is a food that is only eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival in everyone's inherent impression. Everyone eats Zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Zongzi disappears without a trace after the Dragon Boat Festival.

It was also the first time for Jiang Feng to make zongzi in August.

Zhang Guanghang went to drive. Jiang Feng and Wu Minqi were waiting for him at the gate of Fenyuan. After a while, instead of the familiar Bentley, a silver Maserati appeared.

Jiang Feng:? ? ?
Are you tall, rich and handsome all so fond of the new and dislike the old?The old love Bentley has only been open for a long time, and there is a new love so soon.

But why did this Xinhuan look so dirty? Jiang Feng felt a lot of dust on the body.

After getting into the car, Jiang Feng couldn't hold back and asked for a moment, "Why did you change cars?"

"The previous car was sent for maintenance. This one was bought a few years ago. I don't drive it very much." Zhang Guanghang explained, "It's been a long time since it was opened, and it's covered in dust in the garage. I forgot to wash the car yesterday. Wait for your help." I'll take the cake and I'll wash the car first."

"Okay." Jiang Feng replied.
.
Even rice dumplings are divided into north and south.

Beiping zongzi, as a representative variety of northern zongzi, is relatively large, usually square or triangular in shape.Most of the fillings are filled with red dates and bean paste, and a small part are filled with preserved fruits.

There are more types of rice dumplings in the south, and their shapes are more changeable. The most common ones are rhombus, polygon, column and cone.The types of fillings are also very varied. In addition to the traditional meat dumplings and red bean paste dumplings, the assorted rice dumplings and egg yolk meat dumplings that have sprung up over the years are also very popular.

Jiang Feng remembered that when he was still in elementary school, there would often be an old lady pushing a small cart at the school gate to sell green leaf dumplings made of pure glutinous rice without any fillings.The cone-shaped green leaf rice dumpling can see the tightly wrapped glutinous rice when you peel off the outer layer of the rice dumpling. Use a bamboo stick to put it in the mixture of white sugar and sesame and roll it around. It will become very good. eat.

The sweet glutinous rice is sticky and firm, and it also has a faint fragrance of zong leaves. It costs one yuan each.At that time, as long as Jiang Shoucheng, Jiang Zaide and Jiang Ran had rich wallets, they could eat five or six of them in one sitting.

If Chen Xiuxiu is added, and it coincides with the day of giving out pocket money, the group of them can wrap up the old grandma's zongzi stall.

After both Jiang Shoucheng and Jiang Zaide went to junior high school, it was rare for the grandma's rice dumpling stand to be surrounded by a few big and fat boys from the Jiang family.

I don't know when, the old grandma's zongzi stall disappeared, just like the many unremarkable stalls that Jiang Feng ate when he was a child, they appeared and disappeared without a sound.

The old grandma thought it was because he was the youngest, so she had no pocket money and could only afford a rice dumpling, so she peeled another small rice dumpling and gave it to him to eat, which caused him to eat so much that he didn't eat dinner that day. I haven't eaten green leaf rice dumpling for many years.

"Oh." Jiang Feng sighed.

Just an hour after getting off the train, Jiang Ran, who was originally unkempt and disheveled after being dragged home by his parents to wash and change clothes, felt like a newborn when he heard that Jiang Feng was actually making rice dumplings and sighed, so he couldn't help but look at him.

"Why are you sighing, little brother?" Jiang Zaide asked, holding the chopsticks in his right hand and kept poking inside the rice dumpling leaves, trying to bury the big piece of meat he just added with glutinous rice.

"I want to eat green leaf rice dumplings." Jiang Feng said, "It turns out that the old lady at the gate of our elementary school sells green leaf rice dumplings."

"Green leaf rice dumpling?" Jiang Shoucheng also joined the discussion, "You mean white rice dumpling, the kind you eat without filling and sugar?"

"Yes, it's white zongzi. I feel like I haven't eaten that kind of zongzi for a long time," Jiang Feng said.

"If you want to eat it, wrap it yourself without meat. Remember to mark it when you finish wrapping it up, so that I don't eat it by mistake." Jiang Zaide said, continuing to fight with the meat in the rice dumpling leaves.

"Brother De, don't do it. If you can't wrap it in, change it to a smaller one. You have been wrapping this rice dumpling for five or six minutes. If you wrap it at your speed, when will we finish wrapping it!" Jiang Ran couldn't see it. down.

Jiang Zaide was unwilling to give up the meat he got, and he was dying, "Who says it can't be wrapped, give me a few minutes and I will wrap it in!"

Jiang Ran shook his head helplessly, and tied up an extremely ugly rice dumpling.

"Your zongzi is too ugly, look at mine." Jiang Shoucheng picked up a zongzi he had just made that was half as ugly as Jiang Ran's, and laughed at fifty steps.

Jiang Feng ignored the two cousins' pecking at each other, hesitated for a few seconds between the green leaf rice dumpling and the meat rice dumpling, and carefully put a piece of meat into the rice dumpling leaf.

Although green leaf rice dumplings are his childhood memories, he chooses meat rice dumplings.

All the raw materials for these zongzi today were prepared by Grandma Jiang.

The glutinous rice has been soaked overnight beforehand, and the meat is marinated in large chunks of fresh meat, even if it is not wrapped in rice dumplings, it is still delicious.

Grandma Jiang is the leader in the rice dumpling circle of the Jiang family. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, the 18 members of the Jiang family make the rice dumplings with her own hands. This has been the case every year for more than ten years. The reason why they are not good at making zongzi.

For a long time, Grandma Jiang has been a benchmark in the Jiang family's zongzi making business. It is rare to meet an opponent, even the old man would feel ashamed. Solve the enemy at the root.

But today she met her opponent.

Chen Suhua.

Since Professor Li and his wife moved to Beiping, they have lived a leisurely life as retired old people.

Professor Li drinks tea, reads newspapers and plays mobile phones, takes a walk and plays chess every day. He occasionally reads papers and cares about the latest research trends.

Chen Suhua raises chickens, raises pigs, grows vegetables, does housework and knits sweaters, treats Li's old house like a farmyard, and is addicted to breeding and planting.

Grandma Jiang is very close to the Li family these days. She raises chickens, grows vegetables and knits sweaters with Chen Suhua every day. Chen Suhua also fell in love with listening to Huangmei Opera under the influence of Grandma Jiang. The two have become old sisters.

Sisters are for comparison and competition.

As Grandma Jiang and Chen Suhua started a war without gunpowder on the matter of making zongzi, Jiang Feng and the others were gradually deprived of the right to make zongzi. nothing to do.

Start watching Grandma Jiang and Chen Suhua make zongzi.

In fact, most of the employees in Taifeng Tower don’t know how to make zongzi. They just want to make fresh ones. If they can make zongzi like Jiang Ran’s, it’s considered very good. At least they can tie up the zongzi. Whether the time will disperse or not, we can only do our best to obey the destiny.

Jiang Feng noticed that Ji Yue had started talking to Zhang Guanghang, and pretended to show him the manga he had just finished yesterday.The two old men and Professor Li were sitting at a table for four people drinking tea and chatting. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and the smile on Jiang Weiming's face never disappeared.

Wu Minqi and Ji Xue disappeared, Wang Xiulian and Jiang Feng's aunt, second aunt, fourth aunt and fifth aunt got together, each holding a cucumber in their hands, and held a tea party while gnawing on it, while Jiang Jiankang had a tea party with Jiang Feng's uncles Bragging together.

"Brother Ran, I noticed that you've lost a lot of weight recently." Jiang Feng looked at Jiang Ran carefully, and Jiang Ran's body shape was estimated to be below 200 catties.

"I read all kinds of documents every day, apply, submit forms, and write papers. I'm so busy that I almost die suddenly. I don't have time to eat and order takeaway every day. Can I not lose weight!" Jiang Ran said.

Jiang Feng: ...

Why did he feel that Jiang Ran's tone just now was not only not complaining, but a little proud.

"Normal diet and necessary rest are still needed, otherwise you will be straight like Brother De last time... almost fainted." Jiang Shoucheng rounded up the words with a sharp turn, and almost slipped his mouth.

Jiang Shoucheng silently moved two steps to the side. They were too close to Comrade Wang Xiulian's sister-in-law chatting place.

"What happened to Brother De last time?" Jiang Ran asked.

Jiang Feng & Jiang Shoucheng & Jiang Zaide: ...

The three of them silently moved two steps to the side. Jiang Ran didn't know why, so he also moved two steps with them.

"Brother De, you are the party involved, you tell Brother Ran yourself." Jiang Feng handed the microphone to Jiang Zaide.

Jiang Zaide: ...

"Last time, the last time was because, you know, the current clients are more difficult to deal with. The asking price is high and the requirements are too high. Last time I kept revising the draft, which caused me to stay up all night and stay up late every day. Then the mental state was not very good, I always felt a little dizzy, and then I went to the hospital for an examination. The doctor told me that fortunately I came in time, otherwise I might have fallen to the ground and died suddenly if I stayed up all night. Look at me now Isn't it just on vacation?" Jiang Zaide started to make up stories, "Shou Cheng knows about this, he met me in the hospital."

"Yes, yes, Brother De had a little hypoglycemia a while ago." Jiang Shoucheng nodded in agreement.

"Brother Cheng, aren't you in the emergency room?" Jiang Ran said that although he didn't like it, he also checked Moments.

Jiang Shoucheng: ...

"Didn't I just transfer to the emergency department recently? I wasn't in the emergency department a while ago." Jiang Shoucheng said.

"Aren't you in the thoracic surgery department some time ago?" Jiang Ran said that his memory is actually quite good.

Jiang Shoucheng: ...

"We just happened to meet, and I went to the clinic to deliver something."

Jiang Ran wanted to continue asking questions, but was interrupted by Sang Ming who came out of nowhere.

"Everyone, do you want to play mahjong?" Sang Ming had a mysterious smile on his face. That smile made Jiang Feng feel that he was not here to ask if he wanted to play mahjong, but "brother, do you want a piece?"

"Where did you get mahjong in Taifeng building?" Jiang Feng said, let alone Taifeng building, even their family didn't have mahjong.

On the contrary, Li Zhai has a pair. Occasionally, Grandma Jiang and Chen Suhua will rub hemp with the old ladies in the surrounding courtyards for entertainment.

Grandma Jiang has been playing mahjong in Beiping very well recently.

"I brought two sets of mahjong with me when I came here today, just because I was worried that we would have nothing to do. Look, wouldn't this come in handy?" Sang Ming looked proud, "I, Zhang Weiyu and Qi Roushu's mahjong Three missing one will miss you, come or not?"

"Come!"

"By the way, do you know Shudi mahjong? Do you want me to tell you the rules?" Sang Ming asked.

"No need, I've played Shudi mahjong before." Jiang Feng said, it's time for you to experience real mahjong skills.

When I was a freshman, the students in other classes were playing Glory of Kings, and met every day in the Canyon of Kings.Only the students in their class were obsessed with Shudi mahjong in QQ mahjong. They met in room 1 every day. Jiang Feng's score was the best at that time, and he often helped Wang Hao play mahjong to score.

It's not for nothing that he watched Grandma Jiang play mahjong all these years!
