Chapter 173

River fish is no better than seafood. If the food is not good, it will have a kind of earthy smell, but when it is well cooked, it is more refreshing and delicious than seafood.

Song Xijiao carefully scraped off the fish and chopped it with a knife, but it couldn't be chopped very much. Otherwise, if the fish's muscles were cut off, the taste of the fish would be reduced.

Then boil a pot of water, in the boiling water into the scallion and ginger pieces, and then in the fish meat into crushed radish, ginger, salt and a little rice wine, knead into a ball, one by one along the edge of the pot into the boiling water, without a while, those balls float on the surface of the water.

At this time, we should take out the meatballs, use cold water to increase the elasticity of the meatballs, and then put them into the pot again. Stew them over a low heat for more than half an hour, and the delicious radish fish meatballs will be out of the pot.

Song Xijiao thought for a moment that there was not much time left. Song's mother almost came back to prepare dinner. Zhong Chun didn't know what to do, but it was almost time to go to her sister-in-law to pick him up.

She had to get dinner ready before the two came back.

So I looked left and right and saw the eggs in the basket. I suddenly had an idea. I could make dumplings. Egg dumplings are not like dumplings. They have to be mixed with noodles. They just need to fry the egg skin, adjust the stuffing, and make a good dish is a blink of an eye.

The most important thing in the family is meat. She took a piece of bacon from the yard and chopped it into pieces. Then she mixed it with mushrooms and scallions. She fried it and sprinkled it with seasoning. Then she only fried the egg yolk, wrapped it with meat stuffing, folded it diagonally, flattened it with a spade, turned it over, and fried it again. A golden and delicious egg dumpling was ready.

She put a large basin of fish ball soup on the table, then filled with a plate of stewed vegetables, each a plate of egg dumplings, as dinner, has been quite rich.

According to her habit, it's not enough just to make a meal, but also to set the plate. Thinking of the peony flowers planted by our neighbors, I took a bunch of pickled vegetables to exchange two peonies with my neighbors.

Thick pink petals layer upon layer, soft bloom, with emerald green branches, lying next to the antique bowl, really a kind of sad and beautiful mood.

What song Xijiao didn't expect was that Zhong Chun came back first.

As soon as he entered the door and saw song Xijiao, he was relieved and complained in his voice: "it's not that I told you to wait for your brother. I'll pick you up."

"My brother's house is not far away. Besides, Zhou Lu is still lying in bed. It doesn't matter if you do it twice." Song Xijiao plays Lai. There is no one in the family. She doesn't have to be shy. She puts her arms around his waist and dabbles in his arms. She looks up and says, "I haven't seen you for a while. How can I miss you?"

Zhong Chun's face is red. In the past, he always teases this little girl. How come these two days are always teased by this little girl? He pinched song Xijiao's nose, bowed his head and gave her a kiss. He continued: "even if Zhou Lu has not got out of bed, you can't neglect it."

"Yes, just this time."

Zhongchun also wanted to say a few more words when he heard chestnut and han zi laughing outside the door.

Only listen to the sound of chestnut milk, milk way: "my mother also told me a story of straw boat borrowing an arrow, tomorrow I will tell you on the way to school."

Han zi's voice is more thick, with a simple strength: "good, then you don't forget to return the crickets to me tomorrow."

"Yes, I'll play all night."

At the door, song Yuanhan sees that the door is not locked, so he pushes it open directly. Seeing that Zhong Chun and song Xijiao are holding each other, they quickly retreat out.

Song Xijiao immediately pushed Zhong Chun aside and ran to the door pretending nothing was going on: "brother, you are picking up chestnuts today."

Song Yuan cold red face nodded and coughed: "I took the fool home first."

"Good, you go back quickly, sister-in-law has something to tell you!"

What's up? Song Yuan looks at Song Xijiao with a puzzled look. Seeing her smiling face and expecting that it will not be a bad thing, Song Yuan nods and goes home with a fool.

Chestnut pulled song Xijiao's hand and said curiously, "mother, you just said something in secret with your father."

"No whispering?"

"If you don't whisper, why are you so close?"

Zhong Chun chuckled and fished the chestnuts. He picked up the chestnuts and weighed them up: "it's heavy again. Chestnuts have grown a lot this year."

"Recently, the amount of chestnuts has also increased. I have to eat two bowls of each meal." Song's mother came in from the door and said with a smile, "if it goes on like this, maybe Zhongchun will grow up in the future."

Song Xijiao said with a smile, "that's too high! Just as high as Zhong Chun. "

A family of four walked into the room, no need to ask, already smell the rice. Sitting at the table, song's mother picked up the peony and looked at it, and jokingly said, "once you cook, you love to make these things. What's the use of some of them?"

"Nature works!" Song Xijiao said solemnly, "life is not only about life, but also about poetry and distance. We have to live with sentiment, right, Zhong Chun?"

Zhong Chun didn't care, but he didn't want to sweep song Xijiao's happiness, so he nodded. He took the fish ball soup given to him by song Xijiao Sheng and took a sip of it. It was delicious and appetizing. Usually he doesn't like to eat this kind of light taste food, but song Xijiao can always make him eat it.After opening my stomach, eating fish balls, egg dumplings, and sweet and spicy stewed vegetables, my appetite for food is completely satisfied, and there is no gap. It's really an immortal day.

Sometimes, he can't help thinking, just put everything down, and song Xijiao do a small folk couple, looking for a common life, there is nothing wrong.

But that's the future. For now, he hasn't been able to lay down all his capital. Because he knew that the more ordinary life, the richer he wanted, the more he needed the escort of power.

In the evening, after giving chestnut a little lesson, song Xijiao came out and sat down in the yard, pondering over printing.

Printing is one of the four great inventions. The simplest thing she remembered in her mind was block printing. She found many templates, engraved articles, and then printed them with ink. Of course, this is faster than hand copying, but with so many characters in a book, I don't know how many inscriptions need to be engraved, so the preparation work is also very troublesome.

Sure enough, movable type printing has to be studied.

But movable type printing means printing all the common characters. It is a huge project, no matter the workload or the working procedure. Once it is started, I'm afraid it will have to be busy for some days. No one can help her, so I have to explore everything by myself.

It's a headache to think about.

"What are you thinking about?" As soon as Zhong Chun walked into the courtyard, he saw song Xijiao's brows locked and worried. He sat down beside her. Seeing that song's mother and chestnut were sleeping, he simply took the man to his lap and said with a smile, "if it's OK, we'll discuss and discuss how to arrange the new home."
