Chapter 54：

Autumn is cool, windy and sunny, which is the best weather for viewing the moon.

After the cubs finished their studies, they started to help Su Xiaoxiao work.

Stone snails are not like field snails. The field snails live in the fields and inhale a lot of mud every day. After picking them up, they must be raised overnight and spit out the black mud before they can be eaten.

Stone snails are also called mountain snails. They live in small streams on the mountain. The water is very clear and they are kept very clean. Of course, it is better to keep them in clean water for one night, but it will not affect the food if they are not raised.

The children were familiar with the way to knock on the buttocks of the stone snails. Han Cheng followed Su Xiaoxiao's instructions and made a cross on the chestnuts so that they could peel the shells later.

Li Yufeng finished the clothes and went to the kitchen to help Su Xiaoxiao.

She first sprinkled some water in the wooden bucket where the bean sprouts were raised, and then moved the bucket to a warmer place closer to the stove, saying that the bean sprouts would grow faster.

Su Xiaoxiao planned to use the method of baking moon cakes yesterday, and prepared to bake the chestnuts in a clay pot. Li Yufeng also thought this method was very good.

Han Cheng washed the chestnuts and brought them in. Su Xiaoxiao asked him to put the chestnuts in the earthen jar and put some corn in by the way.

Li Yufeng took some charcoal fire from the stove, led the charcoal in the stove, and let the charcoal fire slowly roast the chestnuts and corn.

I still eat chicken for dinner. The half chicken Su Xiaoxiao left at noon still smeared some salt on the chicken. The flavor is really completely different.

The chestnuts are powdery and fragrant, the corn is sweet and glutinous, and you don't even need to steam the rice at night. Eat these as the staple food, and a bowl of soup is enough.

"Mom, chestnuts are delicious today, and corn is delicious too!" It was the first time for rice **** to eat chestnuts, and they conquered him once.

Xiaobao disagreed. He often went to the mountains to pick up chestnuts in Sujia Village: "I still think chicken is delicious!"

Xiaozhuzi nodded and said, "It's all delicious." The days after he came here were like being in heaven.

Xiaodoubao also likes to eat chestnuts, but Su Xiaoxiao didn't dare to let him eat so many chestnuts at once, because it was easy to choke, and secondly, because he was worried about his indigestion, he finally broke off a small half of corn for him to chew on.

After the meal, the cubs played in the yard for a while, Han Cheng took them to take a bath, and Su Xiaoxiao began to fry the snails.

Before returning the yard of Xiaozhuzi's house to the troops, he picked all the vegetables in the vegetable field, and most of them were distributed to the neighbors. Su Xiaoxiao, such as basil, pepper, ginger, green onion, and garlic, kept them to eat slowly.

Now, these ingredients for frying snails will come in great use. When you add the ingredients, Li Yufeng, who has just eaten his full meal, almost drools, saying with emotion, "It's fragrant when fried in oil, let's fry a snail in our Sujia Village. How can it be so delicious?"

Before Su Xiaoxiao did not fry snails less often, Li Yufeng had never seen such a fragrant time.

Su Xiaoxiao turned the stir-fried snails and said, "That's natural, and the family is not willing to add cinnamon and star anise, but I still prefer your pickled sour bamboo shoots, the sour and spicy ones are more delicious with this stone snail. ."

Su Xiao smiled and said that he couldn't help swallowing.

Li Yufeng glanced at her daughter: "Why didn't you mention it in the letter? Otherwise, I'll bring you some."

"Forget it, it's so crowded on the train that it's too crowded," Su said with a smile.

Li Yufeng threw the washed perilla into the snails: "I'll write the recipe to you later. When spring comes, you can go to the mountain to dig some bamboo shoots, and then you can pickle them yourself."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded and accelerated the stir fry.

The fried snails came out of the pot, and the cubs have been washed and surrounded by one by one.

A few cubs were actually about the same height, so they looked into the pot with their toes in mind.

Xiaodoubao pulled her grandmother's hand and asked her to hold herself up to see.

Li Yufeng bent over and picked up the cub, and he watched his mother stir fry with curiosity.

Rice ball: "Mom's fried snails are too fragrant. It seems to be more fragrant than last time."

Su Xiaoxiao took out half of it, put a lot of chili peppers into the pot and continued to stir fry.

"It's the same as the last time, except that this time the rice **** picked up the snails by themselves. The food obtained through their own hard work is naturally more fragrant." Su said with a smile.

Xiaobao agreed: "I also think the snails I picked up are very fragrant, and the rice ears I picked up and thrown into the charcoal fire to turn into popcorn are also very fragrant."

The little rice ball and the little pillar looked surprised: "Can the ear of rice be turned into popcorn?"

Xiaobao nodded: "Of course you can. In winter, throwing beans and sweet potatoes into the fire and roasting them is especially fragrant."

Hearing what he said, the two cubs wanted to go to Sujia Village even more.

The fried snails with peppers had just come out of the pot, and Zhao Xianfeng's family arrived.

"Why is it so domineering?" Zhou Yuhua's voice came from the door.

"What Aunt Su does is the most fragrant!" The little fish who was completely captured by Su Xiaoxiao ran in.

The three big cubs in the kitchen hurriedly walked out. After greeting the two adults, the four cubs of the same age quickly played together. One introduced the plane grid to the little fish, and the other introduced the iron to the little fish. ring.

The chicken feather shuttlecock in Hancheng has just been made. The base is made by Li Yufeng in advance. Layer two layers of cardboard, find the largest feather and insert it in the middle, open a cross at the root to secure it, and wrap it with a piece of rag After the nails were tightened, a stable base came out, and Li Yufeng made several in one go.

What Hancheng needs to do is to tie the right amount of feathers according to the proportion of science. One guarantees that no matter how you kick, the base will land first, and the beautiful feather shuttlecock will be made.

Han Cheng held it in the palm of his hand, and the beautiful rooster feathers were scattered in the shape of a flower. The feathers danced gracefully against the breeze under the white moonlight, which immediately attracted bursts of cheers from the cubs, who abandoned the toys in their hands one by one. , to see the feather shuttlecock in Hancheng's hands.

The little rice ball reached out and touched the feathers on it, but didn't dare to exert any force: "Dad, isn't this shuttlecock too beautiful?"

The small pillar also reached out and touched it.

Xiaobao nodded: "it's really beautiful, even more beautiful than what grandma made!"

"Your grandma chose the rooster with beautiful feathers," Han Cheng said.

Li Yufeng was also attracted, and took a serious look: "Hancheng is still very good, I really don't look so good when I make it."

Zhao Xianfeng weighed it a few times in his hand: "Okay, Han Cheng, I didn't expect you to have such skills, why didn't I know about it before?"

Han Cheng said, "I didn't know that before this shuttlecock was made."

Zhao Xianfeng laughed, put the shuttlecock on his feet and kicked it a few times before holding it in his hand: "The children are here, I will teach you how to kick the shuttlecock."

Zhou Yuhua brought a cantaloupe and some grapes, saying that the old man's comrades sent it from the frontier, and stole the stone snails that Su Xiaoxiao had just cooked in the kitchen.

"Xiaoxiao, how did you learn this craft? Stone snails are so delicious."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "I figured it out myself, there is no technical content, I can write you the recipe if you like it, and you can make it at any time."

Zhou Yuhua shook his head: "Forget it, I don't have any talent for cooking. It's true that I admire you. How long did it take, Han Cheng and a few children made them fat for nothing."

Su Xiaoxiao: "You can't talk nonsense about this. A while ago, someone reported our family's extravagant lifestyle and corruption."

Zhou Yuhua was speechless: "Is that person sick? By the way, when do you go to school?"

Han Cheng and Zhao Xianfeng took the cubs to exercise every day, and the news between the two families was still very well-informed.

"I'll go on Monday, I won't have so much time to fiddle with these foods, you can eat more tonight." Su said with a smile.

Zhou Yuhua ate a few snails before he said, "Zhao Xianfeng, that madman, insisted on asking me to teach Xiaoyu'er to learn. I originally planned to let him go to preschool first after the new year, but he insisted that he would have to go with the rice ball. In the first grade, he said that his son couldn't lose to Han Cheng's son. The key was that Xiaoyuer heard these words. Every day he was arguing about going to school with Rice Ball Zhuzi and the others. Xiaoyuer could only distinguish between numbers and radicals. You don’t even know pinyin yet, you think I don’t have a headache?”

Su Xiaoxiao said: "It hasn't been long since primary school started. Some children can learn well, but they can still keep up. Our rice ball has almost finished a semester of courses in such a short time. We plan to let him skip a level in September next year. The fish has to keep up with the progress of the rice balls, and there is a high probability that they will not be able to keep up."

In fact, apart from the first-grade courses, Su Xiaoxiao didn't teach other things systematically. Sometimes, knowledge related to senior grades was also taught by the way. Anyway, the rice **** could absorb it, let alone other extracurricular knowledge.

Su Xiaoxiao's words were said at a huge discount, not to mention Xiaoyuer, it is estimated that the whole school will not find another student like rice balls.

Despite this, Zhou Yuhua was still surprised: "The rice ball will skip grades in September next year? Forget it, let Zhao Xianxian die of this heart, I will enlighten Xiao Yuer first, and go to the preschool class step by step. Let's talk about it later."

Every child’s situation is different. In fact, Xiaozhuzi and Xiaobao both went to primary school after attending preschool first. The rice ball is because Su Xiaoxiao was enlightened, so they can skip the first grade of preschool directly, which is equivalent to skipping one grade. , If Xiaoyuer goes to school step by step, it is estimated that when the rice ball goes to high school or even university, Xiaoyuer only goes to junior high school.

It's really hard to follow in the footsteps of onigiri.

Su Xiaoxiao asked Han Cheng and Zhao Xianfeng to move out the big round table at home, put on two plates of fried snails, and then placed moon cakes, persimmon cakes, roasted chestnuts, melon seeds in order, and the fried snacks that Zhou Yuhua brought before and Li Yufeng. The water chestnuts brought over, finally cut the cantaloupe, opened a grapefruit, washed the grapes, put a pot of tea and several bowls and so on.

A table full of sumptuous moon-viewing feasts, even if the table is full of money, this table is quite rich even in the 21st century.

The cubs stopped kicking the shuttlecock, crawled onto the chairs and kept saying "Wow wow wow", unable to open their eyes.

Not to mention the cubs, even the adults, including Li Yufeng, who has lived for half a hundred years, have never seen such a grand occasion to admire the moon.

Zhao Xianfeng gave Su Xiaoxiao a thumbs up: "If you have a mother, you must have a daughter. Auntie, you are very good at teaching your daughter. I am convinced by Xiaoxiao's housekeeping skills. Hancheng is very lucky."

After Yang Mei left, no one knew better than him what the **** was going on in Han Cheng, let alone the children. How long did it take to marry Su Xiaoxiao? Han Cheng and his children have lived a good life that even he envies.

Women are not afraid of marrying the wrong man and men are afraid of entering the wrong profession. It is more important to marry a good daughter-in-law than anything else.

When I was not familiar with it at first, Zhao Xianfeng was still talking about his sister-in-law.

Li Yufeng has laughed until she sees her teeth but not her eyes: "Where, it's true that Xiaoxiao has been well-behaved since she was a child."

Li Yufeng loves her daughter the most. How can she be unhappy when she hears others praise her daughter?

Zhou Yuhua grabbed the flesh around Zhao Xianfeng's waist and twisted it hard: "What? Did I treat your grandfather badly?"

"No, no, let go, let go, it hurts..." Zhao Xianfeng is a majestic leader to the outside world. Anyone who knows him knows that he is afraid of being inwardly. Don't even dare to put a fart.

Han Cheng and these two are high school and college classmates, and they have long been surprised.

Su Xiaoxiao knew that this was the interest between them.

On the contrary, Li Yufeng was surprised, thinking that Zhou Yuhua, a lesbian, was so sturdy that even the head of the regiment dared to do it.

Before everyone started, Su Xiaoxiao asked the cubs to make a wish to the moon: "Cubs, you can say to the moon whatever wish you have, maybe it will come true?"

The rice ball's eyes lit up, and the first one came: "Is it true, Mom? Then I hope there are so many delicious foods every day, okay?"

The adults burst into laughter.

Han Cheng rubbed his son's head: "You think it's beautiful." No matter how smart he is, he is only a five-year-old child with only food in his eyes.

Xiaobao folded his hands together, and said something in his mouth: "I hope Mother Moon will bless me to live with my aunt and uncle and the rice ball pillar Xiaodou in the future. I don't want to go back to Sujia Village!"

Li Yufeng and Su Xiaoxiao looked at each other and saw the sadness in each other's eyes.

Li Yufeng had said before that when the vegetable garden was full in the past two days, she went to school for class, and she took Xiaobao back.

Xiaobao likes this place a lot and the people here. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but children have parents, grandparents, grandparents, and they want to grow up with their parents and elders, so they can't stay here forever.

Even the little rice ball knows that Xiaobao is different from Zhuzi. He has parents and will not stay at their house forever. No matter how much he likes Xiaobao, he would not dare to say that he should stay, just as he also likes Xiaoyuer to play, but I also know that he has to go home when it arrives.

Everyone didn't continue on the topic of Xiaobao, spend a good moon and a reunion night, and let's talk about it after tonight.
