Farmer's daughter is also self-improvement

Chapter 92
Li Zonghui said with a smile: "Oh, my sister Sha is still so good at talking." Wang also said with a smile: "That is, it is all thanks to Sister Sha that she was able to eat enough and build a house last year. You don't know that she can do business, Zui Taibai can buy our food for a long time is also the price that Sister Sha negotiated with Shopkeeper Qin."

When Li Shasha and the outside heard this, she couldn't take it anymore. She didn't expect that Mrs. Wang, who was behind her back, would praise her so much.Li Yulan also smiled at her, and Li Shasha blushed and ran back to her room.As for what Wang Shi and Li Zonghui said later, she didn't know anything, but since that day, Li Zonghui's attitude towards her has changed a lot.

Not long after Li Shasha returned to her room, Lei Zhengtang and Li Xianzhi came in panting.They brought the birth gift prepared by Mrs. Wu.Originally, the birth gift had to be given first, but Lei Guozhen had an attack early, so it had to be delivered now.The childbirth ceremony was packed with a full basket, and there were all kinds of clean clothes, which were probably collected from various aunts' homes.They have a saying that children should wear Baijia clothes, so that such children are not easy to get sick.There are diapers made of old clothes. Such diapers have good water absorption, and the old clothes are soft and will not hurt the child's skin.There are also a few catties of brown sugar wrapped in a square shape and a basket of eggs.

Li Zonghui didn't care about rest, and led Lei Zhengtang to the inner courtyard after welcoming him into the main room. Lei Zhengtang looked at his son-in-law who was becoming more and more bookish, and it became more and more pleasing to the eye.Several people went into the East Wing, which was the delivery room, and Lei Guozhen shed tears of joy when she saw her father coming.

Wang had no choice but to persuade from the side: "Guozhen, it's not easy to cry during confinement! Otherwise, your eyes will hurt in the future." Lei Zhengtang also said angrily: "I'm the mother of four children, I don't know the severity " Lei Guozhen hurriedly wiped away the tears: "Mother-in-law, father, I am tears of joy." Li Zonghui smiled and stepped forward to pat Lei Guozhen on the back: "Zhen'er, let's not cry for the future! "

Lei Zhengtang hurriedly interrupted: "Guozhen, where are my two good grandchildren? Have you got a name yet?" Lei Guozhen said as he lifted the quilt next to him: "The name hasn't been taken yet, we'll wait for my husband to come back and decide. The nickname is Sister Sha, and they are called Da Mao and Er Mao." When the quilt was lifted, two little guys were sleeping soundly.Da Mao and Er Mao were still smacking their little mouths in their sleep, as if they were reminiscing about the milk they just drank.

Lei Zhengtang watched carefully for a long time, and said, "Guozhen, quickly cover it up! I'll go out first, don't disturb the two little ones to sleep." After speaking, he gently covered the two sleeping little ones with the quilt Go up, and walk lightly to the door of the room.

When he arrived at the main room, Lei Zhengtang asked carefully about his son-in-law's recent situation, and Li Zonghui told his father-in-law about his studies in the academy.Unknowingly, the two chatted until it was getting dark, and Lei Zhengtang remembered that he had to go back, and stood up to say goodbye.

Seeing that it was getting so late, Li Zonghui would not let his father-in-law turn around, and immediately grabbed Lei Zhengtang's arm: "My lord father-in-law, you can't see the road clearly when you go back at this time, and there is still so much snow. What went wrong, I can't explain to Guozhen. No matter what, you will spend the night with your son-in-law tonight."

Hearing his persuasion, Lei Zhengtang also felt that it would be dangerous to go back at this time, so he took a seat and said, "That's fine, I'll just stay here to bother you all night." Li Zonghui said with a smile: "I wish for it, weng and son-in-law will have a good time tonight." Have a few cups and chat for a while." After that, he turned around and went out to ask Li Yulan to prepare two adjacent main rooms, so that the two of them could go back to the room directly to rest after getting drunk.

Wang and Li Yulan knew that their in-laws would have dinner and stay overnight at their own home, so they immediately cooked and tidied up the house.Li Shasha took the initiative to help Li Yulan clean up the two rooms, and then went to help Wang's dinner with Li Yulan.Thanks to the pork sent by butcher Zhang today, they didn't need much effort to cook a large table of dishes.

Li Xianzhi went to the entrance of the village to drink two catties of wine. During the dinner, when they mentioned the danger of Lei Guozhen's delivery this time, they all clicked their tongues.Li Zonghui is very grateful to Yan Zixi for inviting the former doctor of gynecology at the Taitai Hospital, Dr. Zhong Nan. His own study problem is also thanks to Yan Zixi, and now he has saved the lives of his family, one, two, and three. Zixi is the savior of our family, if he comes again, he must not treat him badly." Everyone said yes in unison.

In the end, Weng and his son-in-law actually drank two catties of wine while serving food.Both of them were so drunk that they passed out, and several members of the Wang family dragged them back to the prepared room.Li Shasha was afraid that the two of them would vomit when they fell asleep, so they placed two wooden basins on the bedsides of the two.

There is nothing to say all night, and the next day will be the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. This day is a small year to sacrifice to the Stove Lord.Lei Zhengtang didn't eat lunch here, he would go back as soon as he got up in the morning.After all, the Lei family also wanted to sacrifice to Lord Stove, so the Li family didn't hold back much, but let Lei Zhengtang carry two more pig legs back.

After sending Lei Zhengtang away, Mrs. Wang prepared all the sacrifices in the stove and went out. Only Li Zonghui and Li Xianzhi were left in the stove.Li Shasha really wanted to stay and see what kind of ceremony it was, but it was a pity that Li Zonghui closed the door of the stove house tightly, and Wang was staring at Li Shasha, fearing that she would go in and make trouble, so Li Shasha had to go back in despair. own house.

After sacrificing the Stove Lord, the Wang family sent Li Zonghui and Li Xianzhi to deliver red eggs and meat to several brothers in the family, and she started to take care of all the active cleaning, sweeping and plastering in the house. In a month's time, the house is relatively easy to clean.Mrs. Wang changed the beds in all the rooms again, and washed them with Li Yulan for two full days before they were finished.God is still very face-saving, these few days have been sunny and sunny, and the things that Mrs. Wang left to dry in the yard dried up quickly.

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Mrs. Wang invited Li Dehai's family to help make Dababa and Panbaba.When Li Dehai's family came over, they brought Li Shasha's smoked bacon, sausage, and pig's blood tofu, and six smoked grass carp weighing more than ten catties.Good guy, these things have filled half the warehouse.Mrs. Wang refused to accept the six cured fish, saying that she had already taken four before, so she really couldn't accept them.Later, it was Li Dehai who turned down his face, and Wang accepted it, only thinking about returning the gift later.

It's finally time to make papa, let's talk about making papa first.Dababa is steamed glutinous rice that has been soaked for a day, and then put the glutinous rice into a vessel called Duao, which is a large round stone with a circular concave in the middle.Two people hold a thing called a wooden pole, which is a half-length wooden stick wedged with a cylindrical piece of wood. The diameter of the wood is just smaller than the circular concave shape of the stone.The two cooperated tacitly, one after the other, to pound the glutinous rice into a sticky rice dumpling.Of course, Li Dehai and Li Zongliang had to fight alternately, otherwise Li Zonghui and Li Xianzhi would definitely not be able to fight.

The four of them took turns to replace each other, and each of them was sweating profusely.Finally, the glutinous rice dumplings that can be made into cakes were put on the table. Mrs. Wang had already sprinkled a layer of rice flour on the table in the kitchen to prevent sticking.The old lady, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Li Yulan, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Liu divided the glutinous rice dumplings into many small ones, then rolled them into rounds in their hands, and pressed them flat with their hands. The moon-shaped cakes were freshly baked.

Li Shasha couldn't help but feel a little itchy when she watched from the side, and she also participated in rubbing the glutinous rice cakes, but when she rubbed them, her hands became sticky, making everyone laugh non-stop.After laughing, Li Yulan told her that she had put tea oil on her hands.It seems that seeing things with your eyes is not enough, you have to ask in advance!The formed Dababa should be dried naturally in the shade, and then stored in a large tank filled with well water, which can be preserved for the Qingming Festival in the coming year.

And panbaba is made of steamed glutinous rice and rice, put it into a tool called a bench horse and mash it. In Li Shasha's eyes, the stool horse is a bit like rice pounding. It is a square buried on the ground with a conical depression in the middle. Facing the conical depression, there is a conical "horse head" made of wood. The horse's head is connected to a thick and large log, which is supported on a device similar to a seesaw. The "horsetail" part also has something similar to a horse's head, but it is much smaller, and the corresponding ground also has a depression.

At the beginning, Li Zongliang stepped on the horse's tail with his feet, and the horse's head was raised high. Li Zonghui put the steamed rice balls into the depression of the big stone.After putting it away, Li Zonghui signaled to Li Zongliang, Li Zongliang loosened his feet, and the horse's head landed straight on the rice ball, and then Li Zongliang stepped on the horse's tail again, and the horse's head was raised again, Then it fell again.Generally, Li Zongliang steps on it three times, and Li Zonghui flips the rice ball once.

After the rice balls are ready, the women will wrap the two fillings that have been reconciled into small rice balls, a bit like making dumplings. One of the fillings is sweet, made of sugar, crushed peanuts, and crushed sesame seeds. The other is salty, which is made of evenly fat and thin diced bacon, mixed with some tea oil and appropriate salt.The wrapped rice balls are not made into round shapes, but pressed into small squares and wrapped with tung tree leaves.

In order to make these cakes, the two families spent a full day.When Li Dehai's family said goodbye, Mrs. Wang put a lot of Dababa and Panbaba in a back basket as a thank you gift.Mrs. Zhang refused for a long time, but Mrs. Wang said that she made more specially for the two families. If she didn't accept it, then she could take the cured fish back, so Mrs. Zhang accepted it embarrassingly.

The 29th day of the twelfth lunar month is the day when Mrs. Wang and Butcher Zhang made an appointment to kill pigs. This time, the pigs were slaughtered for the purpose of eating meat and giving gifts during the Chinese New Year.Early in the morning Zhang Butcher and Zhang Erlang came over and killed the big fat pig, leaving only two pigs that were raised later.I got four more trotters to breastfeed Lei Guozhen. Although Lei Guozhen still has a lot of milk, he just can't hold two small mouths to eat, so everyone still needs to breastfeed Lei Guozhen more.
