Chapter 24 See what she is doing
Feng Rongrong ran home and told her parents that the food her aunt cooked was delicious. She would come over tomorrow to help her aunt light the fire and have dinner at her house.
Children in rural areas start working at a very young age, especially girls.
Lu Lan thought that Feng Mian's family was busy, so she asked her daughter to come over and help out. It would be nice to pick some peppers and pull some onions.
At night, Feng Mian checked the doors and windows and prepared the food for the next morning.
Place an order for beans and soak them in advance.
Drink soy milk tomorrow morning, and eat soy beans at noon and in the evening.
Let the dough rise first. The weather is cold, so there is no need to worry about it going bad.
After breakfast, she had to pretend to go to the county town, otherwise the sudden appearance of a bunch of food would arouse suspicion.
People in the countryside get up early to work, so Fengmian has to get up early as well.
Early in the morning, blend the soaked beans into soy milk, boil it in a pot, scoop out the soy milk to drink, and use the remaining soy milk in the pot to make tofu.
After a while, Feng Rongrong from next door came knocking on the door.
This little girl starts working really early.
"Aunt, let me help you."
"Have a bowl of soy milk first."
She took some sugar and put it into a bowl to dissolve it. For people at that time, sugar mixed with soy milk was the best drink.
Feng Rongrong gulped down a big bowl of it, saying it was delicious.
In fact, Feng Mian didn't have much work for her to do, so she was asked to help get some things and mix some side dishes.
She herself sat around the stove, slowly roasting vegetable and meat patties over low heat.
Red bean cakes, vegetable and tofu cakes, and scallion and minced meat cakes, a basket full of them were roasted.
Soy milk, pancakes and side dishes are my favorite breakfast.
After a while, Gu Yuelin and the other two arrived, and Feng Mian hurriedly asked them to sit down and eat.
"Wow, my soy milk is so sweet. Sister-in-law, you put a lot of sugar in it."
Feng Mian smiled and said nothing.
"This pancake is delicious too. How is it made? It's fragrant and crispy."
"Eat a meat pie. This meat pie is delicious."
"Of course the meat smells good, you don't even need to tell me."
"My sister-in-law is such a good cook. If she were to become a cook in a state-owned restaurant, I would lose my job."
Feng Mian smiled faintly and said nothing, thinking to himself, I don’t want to be a cook in a state-owned restaurant.
The guys were really good eaters and they ate almost the entire basket of bread.
Feng Mian herself doesn’t eat much, but she has been a fine eater since she was a child.
Even though she traveled to this era of food and clothing shortages, she never neglected her stomach because of her golden finger.
Feng Rongrong was because she was given the food while it was being roasted. She ate it while it was being roasted and had soy milk to drink. So she was full before it was served.
After breakfast, the three young men continued to work.
Feng Rongrong offered to help her wash the dishes. She was already eight years old, so she could be trusted to take care of these household chores.
Feng Mian went to the county town, pretended to stroll around, and then went to the government office.
When she came back, she was carrying a slaughtered fish, a slaughtered chicken, several pounds of pork ribs, kelp, etc.
She also made grilled fish today. They didn’t have enough yesterday, so she planned to make another one.
After lunch, a diesel tricycle arrived.
There was a lot of rumbling sound, and everyone in the village came out to watch the fun.
Feng Mian was also a little confused because the car was coming to her house.
