Chapter 108 Chapter 108: Rice balls
"Why are you in a hurry? I'm not in a hurry. The emperor is really not in a hurry, but the eunuch is." Su Guolin frowned when he saw the boy in such a hurry.

"Don't say the wind is the same as the rain, okay? I'm at home now.

Besides, don't be in a hurry. You can call the division commander and the others first to talk about the situation. "

"Oh oh oh. I'll go now. Where's the phone?"

"Don't worry about this. Now that you're here, just stay here for a few days.

After I finish taking care of things at home, it will be too late to go back together. "

"Master, I'll tell you, don't worry about it." Su Guolin glanced at it and carried the prey home.

Xu Qianjin was like a dog-skin plaster in the back, clinging to Su Guolin.

He behaved abnormally, with a look of admiration on his face.

Mrs. Su also understood why Xu Qianjin cared so much about her son after hearing what her son said about Xu Qianjin.

Emotionally, this is because Xu Qianjin completely regards Su Guolin as his brother.

Not only is he his leader, he is also his brother in his heart. It is no wonder that Lao Wu saved his life and now has a great career.

It is human nature for Xu Qianjin to admire Su Guolin in his heart.

"I'm worried for you too, so I'm rushing back. Let's go back a day earlier so that the big stone in my heart can fall to the ground." Xu Qianjin muttered as he followed Su Guolin.

"What's yours is yours. You can't take it away. If it's not yours, no matter what you do, it's useless. There's no rush. It's only been a while, two and a half months have passed. The order has also been issued. Do you really think I If you go back immediately, you will be reinstated."

"Let's think about the problem sometimes. We can't be so one-sided. This is not a child's play. Don't rush it for a while, do you understand?"

"Understood, Captain!"

"Okay, stop sticking here like a piece of wood. This is not an army, this is my home. Don't be so tight. My family can't eat you."

"It just so happens that we are moving to a new house recently. We have more people and you are stronger. Please help more when the time comes." Su Guolin feels that free labor is not in vain.

"Moving to a new house? Leader, have you built a new house?" Originally, he felt that the leader was quite pitiful. After returning to his hometown, he still lived in a mud house, and he felt even more aggrieved for the man.

"Yes, it's that three-story building. Why are you so surprised, kid?"

"No, this mud house is indeed not safe to live in. It's time to build a new house." Xu Qianjin finished, "I am strong and can move a lot of heavy objects. Auntie, don't be polite if you use my place. Just say hello to me. .”

Mrs. Su made room for the two of them to talk, and gathered her three daughters-in-law to prepare lunch.

The guests who came to the house were distinguished guests, so they had to be treated well, and all the chickens, ducks, and fish were slaughtered.

It was as lively as the Chinese New Year. The children at home were gathered around the boiler and refused to leave the kitchen.

"You little greedy cats, please go outside. The kitchen is too small to squeeze you in. And it's so hot inside the house. You guys are sweating profusely." Mrs. Su drove her grandchildren out.

"Mom, how should we prepare this dish for lunch?"

The weather is getting hotter and hotter. If you eat big fish or meat as usual, you won’t have much appetite.

"I've prepared a few salad dishes, chrysanthemums, you can show off the salad dishes you poured out. There are salads like pig ears, cucumbers with vinegar, and spicy chicken with saliva."

“These dishes don’t burn your mouth when you eat them, and they are spicy and appetizing.”

"Then let's brine the duck with salt and make a salted duck dish. And for the fish, let's make the pickled fish directly. Make it in advance. It's just right to eat when it's warm. Cook a few more bowls of rice for lunch. They are soldiers I have a big appetite." "Mom, this small wooden barrel in our house probably won't be enough."

"Then bring out the big wooden barrel from home. Didn't we ask Uncle Cai to make it for us a while ago?" Mrs. Su ordered the three sisters-in-law to do things in an orderly manner.

"Grandma, I want to eat wine lees meatballs, ice cold!" Su Hanlin spoke fluently now, and was helpless about the hot weather.

It might be snowing in June, which is not suitable. It can only rain in the morning and evening, which will make it cooler.

"Oh, grandma's little sweetheart, why did you come into the house? Get out quickly, the kitchen is hot."

"Wine rice dumplings, right? Grandma has remembered them and will make them for you later." Mrs. Su quickly carried her granddaughter out of the kitchen.

There is a lot of rice wine brewed at home. In order to prepare the rice wine for moving to the new house, Mrs. Su made two large jars of rice wine.

The taste is sweet and the alcohol content of the rice wine is not high.

Logically speaking, children cannot drink alcohol, but Su Hanlin especially likes to eat fermented rice balls.

The weather was hot, so the fermented glutinous rice balls made at night were placed in the well for one night and brought up the next day. They were ice cold and very refreshing.

This is what they eat in summer in their village.

Mrs. Su is also good at making lees, brown sugar and eggs, which are replenishing and delicious. Recently, the children at home are tired of eating eggs, so they all switch to this sweet soup.

"Mom, where is the sausage I made drying? I just cut it into a piece to serve with wine. I asked the children to go to the small shop in the village to get wine."

"It seems that they have been moved to the new house to dry, and they are hanging upstairs. There are too many things here. We need to dry the clothes in the courtyard, so I asked the boss to move them there. Why don't you go and do it yourself?"

"Hey, I'm going to the vegetable garden to pick some tomatoes and cucumbers. Mom, do you have enough peppers, onions, ginger and garlic? Do you want to bring some more?"

"That's okay. Let's get some more. I'll use them at home anyway."

The staple food is fried rice noodles with eggs and spring onions, as well as rice, which is very filling.

This was a very simple meal for the old Su family, but in Xu Qianjin's eyes, he felt a little moved.
Even in big cities, working-class families only eat meat two or three times a month.

The Su family entertained him with such lavish entertainment, and the man felt a little guilty. When he left, he must leave some money for the Su family.

The leader's retirement allowance was probably used to build a house.

Lunch was served in the yard. The jujube trees had already grown new leaves and bloomed flowers.

The Su family set up two or three tables in the courtyard. Men sat at one table, women sat at another table, and children sat at another table.

The women don't know how to drink, so they simply do it separately and let the men have fun.

Under the jujube tree, there is a lot of shade, and with the gusts of wind blowing, it is especially refreshing.

Somehow this year's jujube tree has produced an especially large number of fruits, which are so densely packed that they are almost weighing down the branches.

The fruits above reflect a translucent luster under the sunlight, making people think about it.

Of course, all of this was inseparable from Su Hanlin's care. She had put a lot of effort into the Su family's jujube tree.
