Chapter 18
Ning Qiu swayed around, and saw a bag of corn flour on the shelf beside it, which was quite finely beaten, and a small bag of flour beside it.

"Grandpa, shall we eat Liangpi?"

"Liangpi? It's only sold in the county. It takes half a day to go back and forth."

"No need to buy, we make it ourselves."

"Do it!? But Grandpa, I don't know how to do it."

"I will." Ning Qiu looked at Grandpa with a smile.

"What!? You know how to make Liangpi!?" Ning Qiang stared, "How is it possible, you are only so young."

"I really do, I've learned."

Ning Qiu didn't talk nonsense, he asked his grandfather for a large bowl, and first filled it with some cornmeal.Put some water and stir the cornmeal.

"That's it?" Ning Hongfu asked curiously.

"Of course not. You have to wait a while for the starch to settle before you can use it."

Several children also became interested and gathered around to watch. "How long will it take?"

"Everyone wait to eat, just three to ten minutes. Grandpa, do we have a steamer at home?"

"Why do you want that thing?"

"I'll use it later when I steam the cold skin."

"Okay, I'll get it."

"Grandpa still needs a big pot."

"Row!"

Taking advantage of the time of precipitation, Shen Qiu asked a few children. "What flavor do you all like to eat?"

A few children look at me and look at you, and they don't have any concept of the word taste.

"Okay, then I'll watch and do it."

Shen Qiu wandered around the kitchen, pointing to the garlic hanging by the door. "I want one of these."

"I come!"

Ning Qiang actively helped, it was Liangpi, it was sold in the county for [-] cents a bowl, it was delicious.

The other little kids also wanted to help, Shen Qiu saw that they were eager to try, and pointed at the dried chili over there.

"Three peppers."

"I'm going! I'm going!"

At this moment, grandpa came with a steamer and a big basin, "Qiu, what are you going to do next?"

"Put water in a large pot, put the steamer on the pot, and bring the water to a boil."

"okay."

Ning Hongfu seemed to feel better when he got busy.In fact, he also understands that he is also in a hurry at home.

Ning Qiu acted like a conductor, asking the children to peel the garlic and pull the onion.

Take the spring rice bucket, crush the garlic and pepper, and put the crushed ingredients in a bowl.

The water is boiled, and the precipitated corn flour is almost the same.

"Grandpa, pour the thin layer on top into another bowl, don't pour out the thick layer."

"it is good."

I took the thick bowl, added a little flour, a little salt, and a little water.Puree and set aside.

"Is there any oil at Grandpa's house?"

"Have."

Ning Hongfu brought the oil tank, Shen Qiu scooped up a small spoonful of oil, and spread the oil evenly on the big basin.Scoop a spoonful of batter into a large basin, turn the large basin to spread the batter evenly.

"Grandpa put this in a steamer and steamed it in three to five minutes."

After a while, the batter in the big basin became translucent.Ning Hongfu also felt the novelty, and turned the big basin upside down on the chopping board, and a cold noodle was made.

There is not much cornstarch, so I made four cold skins.

Cut the cold skin into strips, and everyone has a bowl, and there are still leftovers.

Shen Qiu prepared ingredients for each of them, and finally some sesame oil, just smelling it made my mouth water.

"Wow! It's so fragrant!"

"It's delicious! It's the same as the one sold in the county!" The children ate without looking up.

Ning Hongfu took a sip, his eyes lit up. "Qiu, you are only so young, how can you do this!?"

"I saw someone else did it, and thought it was very fun, so I wrote it down. Grandpa, is it delicious?"

This is what she learned when she was doing odd jobs in a Chinese restaurant when she first went abroad.

"delicious!"

“This summer is the best food!”

The reason why Ning Qiu did these things was mainly to relax Grandpa's tense spirit, and of course it was also to please the children.Well, children, what could impress them more than delicious food?
Ning Qiu has just arrived here, of course he wants to get along with everyone.Not only the elders, but also these children.

While eating, there was a knock on the courtyard door.Ning Hongfu immediately put down the bowl and went to open the door.

It was Zhang Guoqiang, the son of the village head, who came, "Second Uncle, I'm afraid you're in a hurry, so I'll report back to you first!" Seeing Ning Hongfu, he opened his mouth and said.

"How's it going!?" Ning Hongfu asked nervously.

"It's okay! The doctor in the county said that it was delivered in time. Chengzi and his wife are hanging water with the second aunt. Don't worry, my dad is also here, and they will come back together after hanging up in a while."

Hearing this, Ning Hongfu was finally relieved. "Thank you, Guoqiang. By the way, have you eaten yet?"

"Nope!"

"Then eat it at my house. My house has made Liangpi. Come and try it."

"Liangpi!? Uncle, do you know how to make Liangpi?"

Ning Hongfu smiled honestly, "Come on, let's talk first." He let people into the yard.

The children managed to raise their heads, and when they saw someone coming, they laughed and shouted.

"Uncle Guoqiang."

"Yo, what's the smell? I smelled it before I entered the house."

Ning Hongfu called the people to sit down, and went to the kitchen to serve the bowl by himself.

"Come here, there is still a big bowl. Here are the ingredients, and you can add whatever you want."

Shen Qiu raised his hand, "Grandpa, let me let this uncle go."

Ning Hongfu smiled, "That's right, Qiu'er's ingredients are the best."

Zhang Guoqiang looked at the strange little girl in front of him suspiciously, "Oh? Second Uncle, whose family does this child belong to?"

Thinking that Zhang Guoqiang is the eldest son of the village chief, Ning Hongfu didn't hide it.

"Hey! This child actually belongs to Xiuwen."

Zhang Guoqiang's eyes widened, "Ah!? You mean Xiuwen!? Could it be... Could it be the...!?"

"That's right, it's Qiu'er."

"Yes! That's the name!"

Zhang Guoqiang was so impressed with Ning Xiuwen, she was the prettiest girl in ten miles and eight villages.At his age, who hasn't secretly liked someone.It's a pity that he was spotted by a reform-through-labour prisoner who went to the countryside and got married. At that time, he was depressed about this matter for several days.

"What about Xiuwen, why didn't you come back with you?"

The smile on Ning Hongfu's face gradually disappeared, and he pulled him outside to avoid the children.

"Xiuwen, she... is dead."

Zhang Guoqiang seemed to have been hit with a sap, "You...what are you talking about? Xiuwen...how could she..."

"Huh, what did the Shen family say that Xiuwen suffered from postpartum depression? I don't understand what kind of disease it is. I just think that Xiuwen disappeared after going to Haishi with that surnamed Shen!!"

"The one named Shen told you that!?"

"Hey! It's my fault too. A few years ago, my family was poor and the sea market was far away. It has been delayed year after year. Who would have thought of waiting for enough money..."

While talking, Ning Qiu came out from the main room. "Uncle, I've finished mixing, you come and eat."

"Oh, Qiu'er is so good, uncle will come here soon."

The jelly tasted very good, but Zhang Guoqiang always felt an indescribable bitterness in his mouth when he thought of the extremely beautiful smiling face in his memory.

After eating the cold noodle, Zhang Guoqiang didn't stay any longer, bid farewell to Ning Hongfu listlessly and went home.

Send Zhang Guoqiang away and clean up the dishes.Seeing that it was getting late, Ning Hongfu sent all the children to bed, and waited alone in the main room.

It wasn't until after nine o'clock in the evening that Ning Cheng and the others came back from the county.

Seeing the village chief who came back together, Ning Hongfu expressed gratitude. "The village chief has troubled you too much today, making it so late..."

Zhang Changwang patted him on the shoulder, "Chengzi told me, hey, they all belong to the same village, and I'm still the village head. If you don't help with this matter, then what kind of village head am I going to be? It's so late, my family That guy must be in a hurry. That's fine! I'll go back first, we can talk tomorrow if we have something to do."

"Oh! Good."
