In this era, no family would buy more than ten sets of bowls and chopsticks. They would buy two more sets according to the number of people in the family. When the sisters-in-law came to eat, they would bring their own bowls and chopsticks.
Lin Qingqing asked Jiang Haixia to help carry the table in the living room to the yard so that they could eat there.
There are not so many stools at home, so the table can be placed against the bluestone slab on one side, so a few more people can sit.
Sister Hongqi brought out two pots of roasted rabbit and chicken on the table, and Sister Xiaoli brought out a pot of roasted venison with radish.
Soon, bowls of hot dumplings were brought out. The plump white dumplings were soaked in the soup, and just looking at them made me want to eat them.
Xiaomei arranged for the little kids to sit on the edge of the bluestone slabs, and they were so obedient that they didn't dare to move.
If you move, you won’t be able to eat dumplings, said Aunt Xiaomei.
Sister Hongyi filled a bowl with dumplings, ran some cold water over them several times, and they were no longer hot. She divided the dumplings into small bowls for the older children and gave Xiaomei another small bowl to feed the younger children who couldn't eat.
Xiuhong took a basin and put rabbit meat and chicken in a small bowl for the children to eat. She did not give the venison to the children for fear that they would have indigestion and indigestion.
Grandma Hongying was helped to sit over at the table. She looked at the table full of dumplings and the two large pots of meat and didn't know how to pick up her chopsticks.
Lin Qingqing didn't like eating dumplings with soup. She held a bowl of dumplings without soup and said loudly, "Sisters-in-law, eat as much as you want. There are plenty of dumplings and meat."
All the sisters-in-law smiled, picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
The first dumpling I took a bite of, the aroma of pork mixed with the aroma of green onions, so fresh and fragrant!
When you bite into the dumplings, you can see that the meat filling is more fat than lean meat, and they are sizzling with oil.
After eating a few dumplings to satisfy my eager appetite, I picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it in my mouth. The meat was very tender, salty and spicy, and it made me want to chew and eat all the bones.
As for the venison, the radish neutralized the mutton smell, and the meat was firm and tender. The juices burst out when you bite into it, and it was delicious with the roasted radish, soft, sweet and fragrant.
Everyone ate like crazy. After Xiuhong finished two bowls of dumplings, she came to Xiaomei's place to eat.
The younger children were fed with rabbit meat and dumplings that Xiao Mei had torn into pieces. The older children's mouths were full of oil and their stomachs were bloated. Only after being stopped by the adults did they go out to the yard to play together and stop eating.
In the end, we made more than a hundred dumplings and ate them all.
There was no venison left in the basin, but there was some chicken and rabbit left. The sisters-in-law had filled their stomachs with dumplings and drank a lot of dumpling soup.
After the sisters-in-law had finished their meal, Lin Qingqing distributed the meat to them. They didn't bring any utensils with them, so Wu Aiju carried a basket and put the meat of the four sisters-in-law into a backpack, then carried it to the tube building and brought it back.
The children usually take a nap, but now they are staggering around in bed. Weidong, the daughter-in-law of Yinghong, takes the key and leaves with the group of people including sister-in-law of Aizhu.
Hongxi also took her mother-in-law and Niuniu back home. Xiuhong, Xiaoli and Yinghong helped to clean up the yard and spread out the herbs to dry.
Xiaomei was cleaning up in the kitchen. Lin Qingqing put the bones, internal organs, and meat for the leader and the political commissar into the kitchen. They were all damaged by the strong sun.
Jiang Haixia collected the furs that had dried on the wall, rolled them all together, and tied them with a rope. She would take these furs with her to be processed into finished skins and bring them back in ten days.
She only took half a day off and had to go back to the regiment in the afternoon, carrying the bundle of furs, and she was gone.
When she finished cleaning up, it was almost one o'clock. She was about to go back to her room to sleep when there was a knock on the door.
“Knock knock knock~”
Lin Qingqing went to open the door and saw Dong Dayong.
"Sister-in-law, the commander (chief) wants you to go to the troops."
