Life game

Chapter 528
Jiang Feng had no idea how obvious the taste changes of pregnant women were. After all, his wife was not pregnant yet, no, more precisely, he was not yet pregnant.

But since Zhao Mei's taste changed drastically due to her pregnancy and she wanted to eat sweet food, as well as sweet food like glutinous rice lotus root, Jiang Feng could only make the glutinous rice balls sweeter.

Traditional black sesame glutinous rice balls are not troublesome to make, but it is a bit difficult to adjust the filling, because it is difficult to control the sweetness.If you put less white sugar, it doesn’t taste like glutinous rice balls. If you put too much sugar, you will get tired after eating a few more. Fortunately, this glutinous rice balls are made for Zhao Mei. When adding white sugar, you don’t need to worry about sprinkling sugar. up.

The Jiang family used to add some lard to the stuffing of glutinous rice balls, and for some reason, the glutinous rice balls with lard added were less greasy than those without lard.Ten catties of glutinous rice balls require a lot of lard. This year, Jiang’s pork is in a hurry, and even the lard is out of stock. The cabbage is fried with rapeseed oil instead of lard, which makes the fried cabbage lose some color. Less fragrance.

In order to make enough lard, Jiang Feng went to Li Cuihua's house next door to borrow a bowl of lard, the kind that borrowed lard to return glutinous rice balls. Zhao Liang (grandson of Li Cuihua) wished he could bring Jiang Feng the whole pot of lard at home.

Everything is ready, just start work.

Speaking of glutinous rice balls, many people will immediately think of Yuanxiao.Tangyuan is eaten in the south, and Yuanxiao is eaten in the north. It sounds like the same thing but the method is actually different.

Chen Zhisui once made a key description of glutinous rice balls in "Zai Jingtang Collection·Jiangnan Jingshi Poetry Draft·Festival Poems": every round is like longan, and it takes effort to eat.Mix the clouds and ladle the water in the silver vat, knead the snow and rub the jade palm skin lightly.Push it into the soup pot to drive away the white duck, and get the sugar bowl to roll the yellow beads.Every winter solstice, every family cooks. Do you know if you are one year old?

This poem is very easy to understand, the main purpose is to express that the glutinous rice balls are Q and round, which belongs to the feeling of eating glutinous rice balls.

Making glutinous rice balls is a bit like making dumplings, but instead of using a rolling pin, they are shaped by squeezing and kneading.The Lantern Festival relies on bumping and rolling. You need to dip the stuffing in water and roll it repeatedly in the glutinous rice flour. Roll until the surface is smooth, and it is the Lantern Festival without cracking.A good Lantern Festival can't find any glue on the surface, which can be called uncanny workmanship.

The ruthless glutinous rice ball making machine Jiang Feng sat in the kitchen making glutinous rice balls silently by himself. For Jiang Feng, making glutinous rice balls was much easier than making dumplings.When making dumplings, he is often disliked by Brother De and Brother Cheng that the stuffing is not enough and the dumplings are not round enough. When making dumplings, he has no worries in this regard - Brother De and Brother Cheng don't like glutinous rice balls anyway.

Neither of them was generally interested in meat-free, filling meals.

As soon as the glutinous rice balls were wrapped, Jiang Feng packed more than a catty and sent them to the next door. The skin of the glutinous rice balls was very sticky and not easy to preserve. The best way to preserve them is to make them and eat them right away.

After Jiang Feng delivered the glutinous rice balls back, he put the remaining glutinous rice balls into fresh-keeping bags one by one, sealed them, and put them in the freezer of the refrigerator for quick freezing.

After dealing with everything, Jiang Feng walked to the living room, moved a small bench and joined the ranks of everyone making dumplings by the fire, listening to gossip and eating melons by the way.

The melon this time is the key object to visit tomorrow——Zhao Mei.

Because the person who distributed the melons was Grandma Jiang, everyone sat around with Grandma Jiang as the center and each brazier as the boundary.Although the old man was making dumplings, he put on an expression that I was forced to sit here and listen to you talking about these trivial matters in the family, but in fact he didn't miss a word.Hearing the wonderful things, he even forgot to make dumplings, and just held the dumpling wrappers without stuffing, and did not react until the dumpling wrappers were almost dried by the brazier.

"Fifth daughter-in-law, you don't know. I called Tian Lin a while ago, and Tian Lin was so worried. If you want me to say that you can't marry your daughter too far away, you can't take care of her if you are far away. It's troublesome to go home, and I don't see her twice a year, can you not feel sorry for her as a mother?" Grandma Jiang didn't even make dumplings, and sighed affectionately while holding Aunt Fifth's hand.

Aunt Wu, who was the only one in the room who gave birth to a daughter, felt the same way, she was about to shed tears, and echoed: "Yes, this daughter is married far away, and the most distressing thing is being a mother."

"Besides, the kid Zhuangshi has not been able to follow his mother since he was a child. I didn't see how strong he was when he was named Zhuangshi. He is not as strong as Tian Lin in his work. Meimei doesn't have an older brother or younger brother to take care of him. This kid Meimei She has been good-tempered since she was a child, taking care of everyone and being gentle. She didn’t say anything when she was bullied outside. The phone call Tian Lin made to me some time ago really touched my heart. This girl can’t let her temper If you raise them too softly, you need to be independent and self-reliant, and you have to be competitive, too gentle is actually not good." Grandma Jiang sighed.

Fifth Aunt nodded emotionally, echoing again and again: "Yes, girls should be raised..."

Then Fifth Aunt silently glanced at Jiang Junlian and Jiang Junqing, feeling that she didn't have much right to speak and shut up.

Jiang Feng ate the melon for a long time but didn't understand it, so he could only turn his head and ask Jiang Junlian in a low voice: "What's wrong with Sister Meimei? Are you wronged?"

"I'm not wronged, it's just that sister Meimei is about to give birth. During this period of time, she has lost her appetite and has lost a lot of food. My cousin and aunt worry about this and that all day long. She thinks that sister Meimei can't eat because she was wronged at her husband's house. "Jiang Junlian whispered.

"When did Sister Meimei start having trouble eating?" Jiang Feng asked.

"Like last month, not long."

"Then when did sister Meimei come back?"

"I'm back on National Day."

Jiang Feng: ...

Aunt Biao's associative ability is really rich.

"Then sister Meimei, is her husband back?" Jiang Feng asked curiously.

"I'm back. I came back with Sister Meimei during the National Day, and left after the National Day. I came again a year ago, and now I'm still at my uncle's house." Jiang Junlian shared the melon he just ate with Jiang Feng without reservation, "Actually, Sister Meimei and her parents-in-law also came during the National Day, but they didn't come during the Chinese New Year."

"Then what is auntie worried about?" Jiang Feng looked confused.

Because their whispers were not low enough, Jiang Zaide, Jiang Shoucheng and Jiang Ran who were sitting beside them also heard the question and answer between Jiang Feng and Jiang Junlian, and joined the discussion group.

"Then you don't need to ask, worry about sister Meimei! Sister Meimei married so far away in Jin Province, and her cousin was car sick, seasick and airsick, and half his life would be lost when she went out. My cousin must be worried that she can't visit her often. Now." Jiang Shoucheng spoke first.

"No, if you're worried that you won't make a special phone call to tell grandma, sister Meimei must have been bullied at her in-law's house. She told her cousin when she came back to raise her baby this time, and she complained to grandma." Jiang Zaide Logical.

"Come on, sister Meimei will still be bullied? Brother De, you forgot, how did sister Meimei whip us three at once with bamboo when we were young? Grandma was still cheering by the side when we were pumping, and the few of us seemed to be the same Xiaofeng has never been beaten by Sister Meimei." Jiang Ran overturned Jiang Zaide's argument on the spot, "If you bully Sister Meimei, who can bully Sister Meimei?"

After Jiang Ran said this, Jiang Feng seemed to have some impressions again. He seemed to have indeed seen Zhao Mei chasing Jiang Zaide, Jiang Shoucheng and Jiang Ran all over the yard with a bamboo to beat three when he was a child.He forgot the specific reason, anyway, it must be the Jiang family's three who deserve to be beaten.

Zhao Mei, who was able to take advantage of her age and her elder sister's majesty since she was a child, was not afraid of power to beat up the Jiang family's three fat people. It is estimated that few people in this world can bully him.

"Then what is my cousin worried about?" Jiang Feng looked confused.

"I don't know." Everyone said in unison.

"Brother Ran, you said that you will go to see sister Meimei at my uncle's house tomorrow, will sister Meimei be as fat as me?" Jiang Junlian asked.

"Not necessarily, I'm not sure if you are fat." Jiang Ran was not sure.

"I heard that a woman's temperament will change drastically when she is pregnant. If she sees Sister Meimei tomorrow, will she remember that I stole all her cakes when she was a child, and will she beat me again in a fit of anger?" Jiang Zai De looked worried, "Should I run when the time comes, or should I stand still and let her beat me up?"

"Let's run. Sister Meimei is about to give birth. It's not appropriate to fluctuate too much at this time. If you hit you too violently...Brother De, why don't you go tomorrow." Jiang Shoucheng sincerely suggested, "Or hide when you see Sister Meimei."

Jiang Feng: ...

Why does the way Brother De and Brother Cheng care for their sister sound so strange?

"You said, Sister Meimei is pregnant, will my cousin still cook meat tomorrow?" Jiang Feng asked in soul.
