Chapter 90 "Wow! Tanghulu!!"

Song Shiwei felt itchy on her face after being kissed by him. She pushed him up and looked straight into his eyes.

"Tell me how deep and long the wound is!"

Zhou Tingyue's eyes flashed and he was about to speak.

Then I heard her say, "I want to hear the truth!"

He sighed helplessly and smiled.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you what I'm saying! It's really not that serious. I was stabbed with a dagger, two or three centimeters deep! It didn't hurt any vital parts, it was just a flesh wound. I really didn't lie to you!"

Song Shiwei stared at him for three or four seconds, and only after seeing that he did not seem to be lying did he believe it.

But she was still worried.

"How about I go to the sanitation center with you?"

She was afraid that the military doctor had only bandaged the wound temporarily. What if the wound was not cleaned thoroughly and became inflamed and festering?

Zhou Tingyue smiled and hugged her tightly: "My dear wife, military doctors are strictly trained before they can go on missions, how could they not clean it up? And I will go to change the dressing tomorrow, then, you can go with me and see it with your own eyes, okay?"

Song Shiwei heaved a sigh of relief after hearing him say this.

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow!"

After telling him to have a good rest, she wiped her tears and stood up, preparing to continue making candied haws for the children. After that, she would prepare dinner.

As a result, just as she washed the wild hawthorns and took the knife to continue cutting bamboo sticks, she saw Zhou Tingyue coming out of the house.

He changed his clothes, wearing a white shirt on the upper body and clean military pants on the lower body.

He rolled up his sleeves and walked towards her.

Song Shiwei raised his head and looked at him: "Why did you come out? Go lie down and take a rest!"

But Zhou Tingyue took the knife and bamboo from her hands with a smile.

"I'm not seriously injured. My arms and legs are not broken. Why do I need to stay in bed? Besides, I've never been in bed with an injury more serious than this. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing! Aren't we going to make candied haws for the children? You go ahead and I'll cut the bamboo sticks!"

There was no way Song Shiwei would agree, but she couldn't persuade Zhou Tingyue.

In the end, there was nothing I could do. Seeing that he really didn't look like anything was wrong, I just let him go.

Before leaving, he reminded me: "Don't use too much force on your arm. After all, the wound is on your shoulder! If it breaks, you will be in trouble!"

Zhou Tingyue smiled and blinked: "Yes, Chief!"

This made Song Shi laugh out loud.

"Virtue!"

After saying that, he turned and went to the kitchen.

Since he was sharpening bamboo sticks, Song Shiwei prepared to cook dinner first. Since a coal stove could be used to make candied haws, he could cook in a pot first.

There was no food left at home, and Zhou Tingyue was injured again. She wanted to go to the service point to see what she could buy, and also ask what time the pork would arrive the next morning so that she could queue up.

After all, if we are going to have a barbecue tomorrow, we can’t just eat seafood. Seafood is an allergenic food and Zhou Tingyue can’t eat it. She has to prepare some pork and vegetables, which will also taste good when grilled!

After boiling the cornmeal, Zhou Tingyue was asked to watch the pot. She took the money and ticket and went to the service area.

At this time, there are quite a few people at the service counter. It is also meal time, and many people come to buy things, or children come to get soy sauce.

Song Shiwei took a look and found that there were quite a few vegetables left, but no meat.

Ms. Zhou, who was waiting at the counter, also said, "We're about to close, so if you guys want to buy anything, hurry up!"

Song Shiwei bought some potatoes, eggplants, corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, sweet potatoes, cabbage, and two kilograms of soybeans and mung beans.

She can soak these beans herself when she gets home, and when they sprout, they become crispy bean sprouts. When the weather gets colder and there is nothing to eat, bean sprouts can be a rare delicacy.

When she left, she did not forget to ask Sister Zhou.

"What time will we have pork tomorrow?"

Sister Zhou looked at the list in her hand and thought about it.

"Around seven in the morning, right? We should be able to get half a pig, but the meat sells out very quickly, so if you want to buy some, you must come early!"

Song Shiwei took note of it, said hello to her, and went back with the things.

When he got home, Zhou Tingyue actually took out a lot of bamboo sticks that he had already sharpened and placed a bunch of them at his feet.

And each one is smooth, without any burrs.

I couldn't help but sigh, he has such a skillful hand.

A few children were still there peeling walnuts and playing games, obviously having a lot of fun.

Song Shi smiled, turned around and went into the house to cook.

While the cornmeal paste was still not ready, she boiled the syrup in a small pot.

There is also a big bag of rock sugar at home, which Zhou Tingyue bought in advance.

If you want to make this candied haws delicious, the most important and crucial step is to boil the syrup.

Song Shiwei puts rock sugar and water in equal proportions into a pot and simmers over low heat. When the rock sugar is completely melted and keeps bubbling, you can add a few drops of sesame oil.

The syrup made in this way is bright in color and crispier.

After cooking for about fifteen to twenty minutes, dip it with chopsticks. If the syrup does not drip, put it in water to cool. If it is not sticky when touched with your hand, it is hard.

During this time, Song Shiwei took some of the bamboo sticks that Zhou Tingyue had sharpened, washed them clean, removed the stems of the dried hawthorns, and then put them on the sticks one by one.

When stringing them, put the small ones at the bottom and the big ones at the top. This way the candied haws will look better.

Find a clean large porcelain plate, spread oil evenly on it, wait for the syrup to be cooked, sprinkle white sesame seeds on it and stir it, then pick up the strings of hawthorns and quickly roll them in the pot, take them out and put them on the porcelain plate.

She roughly counted them just now and there were fifteen strings in total.

By the time all the candied haws were cooked, there was almost no syrup left in the pot.

When Song Shiwei was taking the prepared candied haws out of the door, she was first spotted by the sharp-eyed Zhou Wei.

"Wow!! Tanghulu!!!"

The picture comes from the Internet

His voice instantly attracted the attention of all the children, and they all came running over here.

Many of them were good friends with Zhou Wei and his friends, such as Shitou from Sun Meimei's family, who was not very big, only one year older than Zhou Wei.

Song Shiwei distributed the candied haws to them one by one.

She didn't give any gifts to those who didn't play well with Zhou Wei and Xinxin, such as Xiaodouzi and Jiang Fengqin's son.

These are all made from rock sugar, which was very expensive in those days. She would not sit there doing nothing but sharing them with Zhou Xiaomei and Jiang Fengqin's children!

Besides, Shitou and the others are all children of Sun Meimei, Jian Qiu and Wang Chunxiang.

The whole family compound knew that they had a good relationship, so it was normal for her to share it with them.

I watched her distribute the candied haws one by one, and before it was my turn, they were all distributed.

Xiaodouzi cried out "wa" and started crying.

That’s how kids are, they’ll cry when they’re unhappy!

He cried miserably, and stomped his feet at Song Shiwei and the others as if he had been bullied: "You are all bad people!!"

After saying that, he covered his face and ran home!
