The beauty of the lady

Chapter 23 Total
The meal was very comfortable, and even Zhou Tang ate it happily. That crisp laughter made this very ordinary hut look cozy and warm.

"Ah, ah..." Zhou Tang was at the side, because Mrs. Zhao was taking care of talking to her father and sister, and couldn't care about feeding herself, so she greeted her.

Zhou Mei curled her lips into a smile, then picked up some steamed buns with chopsticks, soaked them in the soup, and put them near his mouth. Zhou Tang opened his small mouth, waited for the steamed buns to go in, and then waved his arms, eating happily.

"Brother Tang thinks his sister's cooking is delicious?" Zhou Zhouzhuang looked at his son and smiled.

"Ahh..." Zhou Tang responded to his father's words with dignity.

After eating, Zhou Zhuang went out on Wednesday, while Zhou Mei cleaned up the kitchen and went to the cellar outside to get two cabbages and came back. She peeled off the dirty layers on the outside to reveal the green and white part inside, and put it aside. After kneading a large piece of dough and waking up beside him, he began to cut the meat.

Originally, one Chinese cabbage was enough for a family of four, but thinking about eating it a few more times in the past few days, I decided to give some to Aunt Hua’s house, or let Zhou Zhuang send two bowls over after cooking in the evening can.

After finally chopping two pieces of cabbage, my arms were so tired that I could hardly lift them up. I put them into a large porcelain basin, sprinkled with salt, and then went back to chopping green onions. It’s just that there seems to be no ginger in this era, otherwise the taste might be better.

The meat is all lean meat. I bought two catties, and she chopped it all up. It will be delicious with half vegetables and half meat, and the meat here is no different from the water-injected meat or hormone meat in the past. It must be seasoned A little less material does not affect its deliciousness.

As for the fatty meat, Zhou Mei really didn't know what to do. Squeeze the oil. She really doesn't like it being so greasy. There is no peanut oil, at least rapeseed oil. Let's think about it later.

It took almost an hour for everything to be packed.

Pick up the big cutting board next to it, and go to the big kang room.

Seeing Zhou Mei's small stature carrying a cutting board about her height, Mrs. Zhao hurriedly leaned over to help.

"Has the kitchen been cleaned up?"

"Okay, let's make dumplings now." Zhou Mei returned to the kitchen with a smile, brought over the big bowl of dumpling stuffing, and then went back to get a kitchen knife, rolling pin, and a large piece of rested dough.

"What does this dumpling look like? Like Yuanbao?" Mrs. Zhao asked curiously.

Zhou Mei cut off a small piece of dough, kneaded it into strips, and then cut it into chunks, "Have you seen Yuanbao?"

"That's right, your grandmother used to keep several ingots, and they were gold ingots." Mrs. Zhao said softly.

Watching her daughter flexibly roll the dough into a thin round piece, then pick up the chopsticks and put some stuffing in it, fold it in half, squeeze it tightly, put it in front of her, and asked, "Does it look like it?"

"It's beautiful, you child, you really like to think about it when you're okay, but it's not very beautiful." Mrs. Zhao took the wet handkerchief next to her to wipe her hands, and then waited for Zhou Mei to finish rolling one, then picked it up and pinched it like her Get up, not to mention, the first time the bag is already very delicate and beautiful.

"This is new, but my Meier is smart."

"These can pack hundreds of pieces. After we cook them in the evening, give Aunt Hua two bowls to let them try something new. If Mom is tired, just rest, and I can do it myself."

"How tiring this can be, it's okay, the two of you should hurry up."

After wrapping some, when the panel couldn’t be opened, she took a thin wooden board, spread a layer of white cloth on it, and put the dumplings on it. After all the dumplings were wrapped, it was already dark outside, and Zhou Zhuang also split Wanchai walked into the house, looked at the very delicate dumplings, leaned forward and said, "Is this a dumpling? Why are there so many meats?"

"The meat is more delicious." Zhou Mei smiled.

After making the last dumpling, there is still a little vegetable left in the pot, let's fry it into vegetable balls tomorrow.

"You guys rest first, you can eat soon."

On Wednesday Zhuang pointed at the tools and said, "Go and light the fire, I will clean up here."

"it is good!"

When she came to the stove, she used a little grass to ignite the sparks in the stove, then filled in the firewood, turned around and cleaned all the pots and bowls she had just used, and waited for the water in the pot to boil before she put the dumplings into the stove. pot.

After all the dumplings floated up, after ordering three cups of water, I took all the dumplings into plates and bowls, and then came out with two of the bowls, and handed them to Zhou Zhuang: "Father, send them over, come back early, Let's have New Year's Eve dinner too."

"Hey, I'll go right now."

When the four plates of dumplings were served, Mrs. Zhao could see the round and big belly dumplings.

Zhou Mei handed the chopsticks to Mrs. Zhao, and said, "Mother, try it first, there is still garlic paste here, so dip a little less each time."

Mrs. Zhao said with a smile, "Your father hasn't come back yet. There is no rule that mother moves the chopsticks first."

"It doesn't matter, whoever is different first." Zhou Mei said softly, she will never admit that a man is respected in her life, she has always been the king in her own world, and she will stick to it to the end.

Mrs. Zhao asked about the fragrant taste. After all, she took a bite under her daughter's earnest eyes. When she bit it open, a thick soup flowed between her lips and tongue, stimulating the taste buds. The fragrance of the vegetables and the richness of the meat, Let her smile and nod continuously.

"It's delicious, Mei'er is amazing."

This is just a few short days, from the hundreds of days and nights before, the food is very comfortable now, this extreme gap made Zhao's eyes filled with tears.

"Mother, it's Chinese New Year today, what's there to cry about, eat more if it's delicious." Zhou Mei handed her a handkerchief, "Will Dad go back to the room to watch the night?"

"Well, it was the same last year. Let's just sleep at home, or if you want to watch the night, just talk to mother here."

"I don't need it. Let's go to bed early. My mother is not in good health, so don't disturb Zhou Tang to sleep." Zhou Mei shook her head. She would only go to bed late unless she had a social event. Otherwise, the biological alarm clock would be set at ten o'clock in the evening. Rest on time.

When Zhou Zhuang came back, he said to his wife: "Her aunt said it was delicious, and asked how it was made."

"It's delicious, hurry up and eat, don't you have to go back to the room to watch the night later?" Zhao greeted him.

"Well, I'll be back after my child's hour. Don't wait for me, just go to bed early." Wednesday Zhuang wiped his hands and sat up. The family gathered around the table, chatting and eating the New Year's Eve dinner.

"When I went to his uncle's house just now, I told him that nothing happened just after the Chinese New Year. I went to the old man's house on the third day of junior high school, and then I was fine. I waited for his uncle to take me and me. Sister Mei is going to Fucheng, and this trip will take three to five days. I have already told my sister-in-law that she will come to help you cook and eat in those few days, and she will send it over when it is ready. When I come back, I will leave from Fucheng Just help them bring some delicious food."
