They were all fresh and tender wild scallions, which looked very appetizing. Yu Rujia said, "Okay, you can take the wild scallions and wash them."
Upon arriving in the backyard, Yu Rujia took out a new dagger and taught Duofu how to cut onions. Previously, the children were too young to handle sharp tools.
Duofu is almost four years old. He is much smarter and stronger than other children his age. With her watching over him, he won't be in any danger.
Duofu learned very quickly. Yu Rujia taught him once, and he mastered it. He cut off the top of the wild onion in a very professional manner and handed the remaining onion stalks to his younger brothers to choose from.
After he finished cutting, Yu Rujia took the dagger away.
Having become interested in using a dagger for the first time, Duofu looked reluctantly at the dagger in Yu Rujia's hand: "Auntie, can I keep this little knife?"
Yu Rujia: "No, you're too young. A knife is too dangerous for you. You can only use a knife under your aunt's or uncle's watchful eye. When you're a little older, your aunt will give you the knife."
Having received the assurance, the sensible Duofu stopped asking questions and joined his younger brothers in washing wild onions.
It wasn't very noticeable when they were tied up, but it wasn't until the kids washed the wild onions and put them together that we realized they had brought back a lot of them.
Yu Rujia: "Are there so many wild onions on that mountain?"
If a group of people went out to play, it's unlikely that only her little ones brought back wild onions; the other children should have brought wild onions home as well.
That mountain isn't big, and people often go there. Even if there are wild onions, if a large group of people take so many back, wouldn't it be almost the same as cultivated ones?
Duofu explained, "Brother Erdan and the others didn't want the wild onions, so we brought them all back."
Wild onions taste good at their house because Yu Rujia is willing to add seasonings. In other households, adding a drop of oil is already considered good. Therefore, in Erdan and his friends' minds, wild onions are no different from ordinary green vegetables.
They had so many vegetables at home that they couldn't possibly eat them all, so they didn't want to bring any more vegetables back with them.
Duo Shou added from the side, "Er Dan and the others said wild onions don't taste good, but they're clearly delicious."
Duolu raised her little hand and said, "That's right, the wild scallions Auntie made last time were so delicious that I want to keep eating them."
Duoxi sidled up to Yu Rujia, her big eyes eagerly expressing her thoughts: "It's delicious, Duoxi likes it, I want to eat it."
Yu Rujia picked up the little guy and rubbed his soft little body against her: "If our baby likes it, Auntie will make more."
Duoxi chuckled and rubbed back.
Yu Rujia showed no favoritism and picked up all the little ones, including Duofu, and rubbed them against her.
After the aunt and niece joked around for a while, Yu Rujia finally started preparing dinner. There are many ways to cook wild onions.
However, the little ones brought back wild onions because they wanted to eat the stir-fried wild onions with cured pork that they had eaten last time, so Yu Rujia generously fulfilled their wishes.
However, the group brought back too many wild onions, which they couldn't finish for one dinner, so Yu Rujia decided to use the remaining wild onions to make some pancakes.
Wild Onion and Erdan contributed to the effort, and Erdan had been playing with the kids for a while, helping them quickly integrate into the Shangfen Brigade's children's circle. So Yu Rujia thought of giving them some Wild Onion pancakes to thank them.
Wild scallion pancakes are easy to make, except for the time it takes to bake them. The ingredients are also simple, so it's perfect to give some to Erdan and the others.
The next morning, after sending the little ones out, Yu Rujia took out flour, eggs, chopped wild onions, and cooled boiled water from her space and stirred them together.
Heat oil in a pan, pour in the mixed batter, and fry until golden brown on both sides. The soft, tender, and fragrant wild scallion pancakes are ready.
The children returned home as usual, and before they could even wash their hands, they were attracted by a fragrant aroma.
Duolu, a chubby little boy, nimbly weaved past his brothers who were blocking his way and ran into the kitchen, shouting, "Auntie, what delicious food did you make? It smells so good! It's wild onions, isn't it?"
Although the cooking methods are different, the aroma of wild onions is still the same. I just had stir-fried wild onions with cured pork last night, and as the little guy with the most sensitive nose in the family, I naturally remember this aroma.
As soon as he entered, Duoxi tried to run over like his second brother, but unfortunately, he wasn't as agile as his brother and was caught red-handed by Duofu who had reacted quickly.
The pressure from his bloodline forced Duoxi to stop and obey his elder brother's orders to wash his hands, even if he wanted to run away. However, the little guy was already planning how to improve his agility with his second brother so that his elder brother could never catch him again.
Duolu rushed into the kitchen but saw no one or any food, so he turned around and ran back to the dining table.
Yu Rujia was arranging wild scallion pancakes inside. Being so close, Duolu's drooling became even more intense.
Duolu couldn't help but slurp a few times, sucking back the saliva that had just flowed out of his mouth and swallowing it back into his stomach. However, new saliva soon flowed out again, so Duolu had to repeat the action of slurping saliva.
There was no way around it; my older brother was getting more and more terrifying, and he couldn't let his drool get on his clothes.
Duolu stared at the cakes on the table with wide eyes and asked, "Auntie, what are these?"
Yu Rujia: "It's wild scallion pancakes! Go wash your hands and come over. We're having wild scallion pancakes for lunch today."
Doro realized he hadn't washed his hands yet. Dofu's image flashed before his eyes, and Doro felt a little guilty. But he was quickly preoccupied with the wild scallion pancakes and happily ran out to wash his hands.
Duoxi, who was outside, had already washed his hands under Duofu's supervision. When he saw Duolu running over, he enthusiastically surrounded him: "Second brother, there's something delicious, muah!"
Duoxi's words were incoherent, but Duolu, who had spent a lot of time with him, understood what he was saying.
Duolu dipped his little hands into the basin to wash them while swallowing hard, saying, "It's wild scallion pancakes, they smell so good!"
Duofu took a dry towel and wiped Duoshou and Duoxi's hands.
After finishing with his toys, Duoshou didn't wait for his silly older brother who was still washing his hands, and ran over to the dining table with his chubby little legs.
Duoshou saw the table full of golden wild scallion pancakes, sniffed, and thought, "They smell so good!"
Duoshou suppressed the drool in her mouth, looked up at her with her little face and said, "Auntie, can I have a piece first? Just a small piece, to taste it."
Yu Rujia picked up a wild scallion pancake and handed it to him: "Hmm, eat up. We're not having lunch today, just this. Try it and see if you like it?"
Duoshou took the wild scallion pancake, took a bite with her small mouth, and the fresh and delicious flavor exploded in her mouth. Her big eyes narrowed into slits with joy. After chewing a few times, she swallowed the pancake.
Duoshou opened her eyes and said happily, "It's so delicious! I love it! Auntie, you should eat some too."
After washing his hands, Duolu came in and saw that Duoshou was already eating. He immediately grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. After a few bites, he began to flatter her: "Auntie's wild scallion pancakes are so delicious."
