Chapter 155 Wrap Tangyuan and Send Reunion

The practice of glutinous rice balls is not complicated.

The main ingredient of the skin is glutinous rice flour, and the stuffing has different raw materials according to different tastes.Pork suet is a must, sugar is also needed, salt is optional, and others can use sesame, peanuts, etc.

For Wu Xiaozheng, glutinous rice, lard suet, sesame, peanuts and other raw materials are ready-made, and they only need to be processed.

Glutinous rice, peanuts, sesame, etc. must be ground into powder.

This is not difficult for Wu Xiaozheng.

Because of the needs of the food processing factory, the Wu family spent more than 1000 yuan to buy a small food mill. Grinding is not a problem.

Just do more if you want to.

Wu Xiaozheng first fried the peanuts and sesame seeds in a wok.

Then, he started the mill to grind the glutinous rice into powder first, then the peanuts and sesame seeds, and grind them into powder one by one for later use.

Next is pork suet.

There are two types of lard.

One is oil boiled with fatty meat. In the countryside, this oil is called water oil. After cooling, it becomes watery and mushy, which is not suitable for making glutinous rice balls.

The other is suet, which is boiled from the fat from pork belly and solidifies into a solid block when cooled.

The reason why suet is used to make glutinous rice balls is because of its solidification property.

For example, glutinous rice balls stuffed with sesame, the ingredients of the stuffing are about 2 parts sesame, 4 parts sugar, 3 parts suet, and 1 part water, heated and stirred in proportion to form a paste, and then put in the refrigerator for a while and it will solidify.

The Wu family does not have a refrigerator now, but the outdoor temperature is not high now, and it will freeze quickly at room temperature, which will not affect the production.

Because Wu Xiaozheng uses both peanuts and sesame seeds, it naturally means that he has to make two kinds of stuffing.

It is really not difficult for Wu Xiaozheng to make this thing, but it just takes a little time.

Soon, two different fillings were ready. The glutinous rice flour was also mixed with a small amount of flour, and water was added to knead it into an elastic dough. The next step was to make glutinous rice balls.

This is a very interesting thing.

So before making the package, Wu Xiaozheng deliberately went to catch Wu Xiaoli and Yang Zongwei who were having fun outside.

When they heard that there were glutinous rice balls to eat, the two little guys were very excited.

In this era, because milling flour is not convenient for most families, and glutinous rice balls that can be seen everywhere in supermarkets in later generations are still rare in this era, so it is not easy for children to eat glutinous rice balls once.

Now when they heard that they could make glutinous rice balls by themselves, the two little guys immediately became excited.

The package process is not complicated either.

First, knead a small ball of glutinous rice flour into a small bowl, add an appropriate amount of filling, then knead the mouth of the bowl, and knead it into a ball in the palm of your hand.

Wu Xiaozheng made a division of labor.

He is in charge of packing, and the two little guys are in charge of kneading.

Wu Xiaoli and Yang Zongwei are very excited, because their favorite game is kneading mud. They are very good at kneading and kneading mud into various shapes.

Now what's the difference between this and kneading mud?
And it won't stain clothes and be scolded by adults, so the two little guys fell in love with it immediately.

Wu Xiaoli is a little skinny.

Obviously, it is enough to knead the glutinous rice balls into a ball shape, but she insisted on making some dough and kneading them finely, and glued eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, ears, etc. on the glutinous rice balls, saying that she wanted to make a small human face.

Yang Zongwei followed suit and played along.

Wu Xiaozheng shook his head helplessly.

He didn't interfere with these two little guys.

At their age, as long as they were having fun, let them play, and he didn't expect the two little guys to help much.

Being happy is the most important thing.

Wu Xiaozheng has a lot of preparations, so this package lasts for an afternoon, and it's almost time for dinner.

Then he started to pack the glutinous rice balls.

He packed so much on purpose.

Rice balls, glutinous rice, lard, peanuts, sesame seeds, white sugar, etc. are all high-fat and high-calorie things, which are not good for your health. They are good in this age of insufficient oil and water. If you come to future generations, you should not eat more thing.

Now that the festival is coming, Wu Xiaozheng will share this celebration with everyone first.

Of course, the family had to prepare a copy, Wu Minxia's family would definitely be reunited here tomorrow night, but her mother-in-law didn't want to come, so she had to bring a small copy.

Yang Guiping also had to give him a small share of the scene.

And Jiang Lihua, she has moved out to live in the village primary school now, so she must be a part of it.

Brother Jun's family also has to get a copy.

There is also Liu Shiquan, the secretary of the village party committee, who has helped a lot with the factory. It is best to send a copy to express my gratitude.

By the way, there are also master and wife.

Although the old couple lived in the city and were a little far away, when thinking of their loneliness, Wu Xiaozheng felt that no matter how far away they were, they had to send a copy to them!
Wu Xiaozheng started running errands.

He first went to Brother Jun's house, then to the village secretary's house, and then to the village primary school.

When sending it to Jiang Lihua, Wu Xiaozheng felt a little bit more.

On the day of family reunion tomorrow, this poor woman has a home and can't go back. It should be said that she doesn't want to go back and can only live alone. It's desolate to think about it.

Thinking of this, Wu Xiaozheng simply said: "Why don't you just leave work early tomorrow, take these glutinous rice balls, weigh some meat, and go back to your mother's house."

According to Wu Xiaozheng's thinking, since she was not warm at her in-law's house, there would always be warmth at her mother's house, right?

Jiang Lihua was moved.

Indeed, although she has moved out, she really feels bad when she thinks of spending the holidays alone.

Besides, she really missed her natal family.

But she has scruples, she said weakly: "I'm afraid my mother-in-law will know."

"It's okay, you can tell Wu Minxia tomorrow, just say that I asked you to go out to do errands, then leave after lunch and come back after dinner, don't tell anyone else."

As soon as he mentioned this, Wu Xiaozheng suddenly remembered that Jiang Lihua probably didn't have much money left, so he simply took out 50 yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Jiang Lihua's hand.

"Let me borrow you and buy something for your parents."

Then he turned and ran.

Jiang Lihua was holding a bag of glutinous rice balls in one hand and a banknote in the other, and she burst into tears.

She has never felt so happy since she got married.

She really missed her parents.

Because of Liu Jiangang's accident, during the Chinese New Year this year, she originally went back to her natal home, but she had no face to go back with empty hands, and Zhang Xiuhua was unwilling, so even though she was close at hand, she still didn't go home.

She really misses her parents and brother.

Now, that heart-warming young man has considered everything for her again, which really moved her very much.

She no longer knew how to thank that boy.

Wu Xiaozheng didn't think too much about it. In his heart, Jiang Lihua in this life was already like a family member of his, and he would protect it to the end.

Next, only master and master's family will be left.

　Special thanks to the rewards for the Mercedes-Benz without gasoline, plus the rewards from Xuan Yuwei, I already owe two more.

　　However, the rewards on the launch day are a bit miserable.
