After adding a few scoops of cold water to the rice noodles, Yao Wanwan turned the pot with a spatula, covered the pot lid, and covered the gap around the pot lid with a rag.

"Grandma, do you want me to cook the pot?" Xi'er asked.

"No need." Yao Wanwan walked under the stove, grabbed a handful of straw, stuffed it into the stove and started to burn it.

Don't be greedy, children, Laba is the new year.

Drink Laba porridge for a few days.

Milly la la 23...

But this is the custom in the north.

On their side, it usually starts on the 23rd, officially entering the New Year's stage.

23 Sending off to the Stove Lord, cleaning the house in the next few days, preparing new year's goods, making tofu, killing pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, etc.

For example, on the day of 23, even in modern times, it has already received great attention in their rural areas.

23 Make two kinds of cakes, one is fried rice cakes, and the other is Yuanxiao, but the Yuanxiao here is relatively big, and a Yuanxiao is about as big as a small bowl for eating.The other one is fried rice cakes, which are prepared by Yao Wanwan now, and they are fried rice cakes.

The late rice is ground into rice, cooked in a pan, and then kneaded continuously to make a flatbread, put it in a pan of rapeseed oil and fry it until golden brown on both sides.

Most of the people here, basically 23, do this. Before eating, put a few in a big bowl on the "god" in the middle of the stove. The space in the middle of the stove, in ancient times, basically It is the place where the common people enshrine the Stove Lord.

After the rice noodles were cooked, Yao Wanwan put a pot of rice noodles into a large basin, dipped her hands in cold water and began to knead. The most important thing to make the noodles of cakes is to knead them. If the noodles can’t be kneaded well, then fry them. It is easy to dissipate.

"Grandma, let me rub it for you!" Xi'er squatted aside and asked.

"No, it's hot."

Putting the kneaded noodles into the washbasin, Yao Wanwan wiped the big round dustpan and covered it with a piece of earthen cloth.

"You all go to play in the main room, don't make trouble here, you will be bored to death all day long."

"Grandma, let me see what you do." Xi'er said.

"Mom, let me see how you cook too! When you get old in the future, I will make it for you to eat."

Yao Wanwan smiled, and lifted the plastic wrap on the washbasin. The fillings made yesterday were all frozen after one night.

Holding a pair of chopsticks on it, Yao Wanwan pinched a piece of rice dough, kneaded it a few times in her hands, kneaded it into a flat circle, put a lot of stuffing in it, and pinched the mouth of the dough.

What this cake eats is the filling, and it tastes better with more filling.The stuffing is pickled vegetables, dried fragrant, and pork belly cut into diced meat and fried.

However, the filling should be fried in advance, and it can be wrapped after freezing overnight, otherwise it will not be easy to wrap.

Compared with the big cakes bought at the snack bar on the street, there is no way to compare them at home. Yao Wanwan used to eat four or five of these big cakes at a time.

One by one, the flatbreads were rolled into flat circles and placed in the dustpan, which was soon filled to the brim.

Yao Wanwan glared at Gu Xiaoya, "Did you see it? My mother said it was not enough! I will give you the rest of the cakes. If you can't finish them, I will stuff them with a mallet."

"Then can't you make some more stuffing?"

"You mouth, believe it or not, I will beat you again."

"Grandma, when should we eat? Am I hungry?" Xi'er asked.

Yao Wanwan squeezed some dish soap into her hands and washed her hands in the washbasin. She only took out the dish soap because Gu Yulan was gone, otherwise it would be too difficult to wash a bowl.

Yao Wanwan took out her watch from her pocket and glanced at it, "Wait a little longer, we'll have dinner in two hours, and eat some lollipops when I'm hungry."

"Did grandma skip lunch?"

"Don't eat at noon, wait until two o'clock in the afternoon, and eat pancakes."

"Mom, can't you cook now?"

"Pancakes are about to be eaten for dinner." Yao Wanwan replied.

"Then why are you having dinner?" Gu Xiaoya asked puzzled.

"The pancakes are for the Stove Lord."

"Send the Stove Lord to eat with us, what does that matter? We eat ours, send the Stove Lord to the Stove Lord."

"Don't talk to me about a hundred thousand reasons all day long! I'm too lazy to talk to you." Yao Wanwan wiped her hands with a dry rag, and said impatiently.

"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law."

Yao Wanwan walked to the door of the kitchen, "The door is not closed, just push it." Seeing Gu Guguo and his wife walking in with their children in their arms, "Why are you here so early?"

"I'm here to talk to my second brother." Gu Gu Guo said with a smile.

"Have the second sister-in-law eaten?" Wang Lingling asked with a smile.

"Not yet, have you eaten yet? I haven't made lunch yet, how about some noodles?"

"No need, we ate at home." Wang Lingling said hastily.

"Second brother, how are you doing these days?" Gu Guguo asked.

Gu Peizhi nodded, "It's not bad." I don't know what's going on these few days, but I feel very comfortable all over, and half of my body has gradually recovered some consciousness, unlike before, there was no way to control it at all.

"Second sister-in-law, don't do it, we are all a family, what are you doing?" Wang Lingling said.

"It's okay, I won't make any lunch today, let the children eat some candy too." Yao Wanwan took out some plates from the coffee table, opened the sugar bucket, and grabbed some peanut candies, lollipops, and sesame candies from inside , Put it on four plates, and opened a bag of sesame cakes and a bag of persimmon cakes.

Yao Wanwan sat down, reached out and hugged Sanxi and Sixi to the bench, and each of them handed them a piece of persimmon cake, "Sir, have you been home these days?"

"I went back. I went back yesterday afternoon, and I rushed back overnight. I brought five catties of meat, a fish weighing almost five catties, and an extra 20 yuan."

"Go home for Chinese New Year?"

Gu Guguo shook his head, "I said, she doesn't care. I said that if the second grade of junior high school is better, I will take the child back. She didn't say anything." After speaking, he couldn't help but sighed.

Yao Wanwan smiled a few times, and she knew this. It's not that she doesn't know what kind of virtue that old thing is. Every year when she passes by, she brings vegetables, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talk nonsense.

Gu Guguo took out 50 yuan from his pocket and put it in front of Yao Wanwan, "Second sister-in-law, don't you go home for the New Year this year!"

"If you don't go home, what are you doing?"

"Then let's celebrate the New Year together as a family! This little money should be considered as the New Year's fee! I have to take advantage of you, Second Sister-in-law again."

Yao Wanwan nodded, and collected the money on the table, "Then I'll take it. If I don't take it, I think you two will feel embarrassed to come here."
