Chapter 847: Growing Vegetables in the House
"The weather is cold enough. Put the dumplings in a jar with a lid on it, and put it in the yard. When you want to eat them, take some out and cook them. It's simple to cook anything, and it tastes good! It's perfect for Cheng Jin's grandfather to cook!"
Grandma Chen's series of words confused Su Ruanruan.
Su Runrun had never expected that Grandma Chen would include meals for so many people.
What has she been doing this morning?
He was just busy talking to Xiao Chengjin, and the two of them were grinning foolishly together.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Su Ruanruan stood up holding a blanket of dumplings, walked to the yard, looked around, and then placed the blanket on a piece of snow.
Although it is winter now, there are still birds. In order to prevent the birds from pecking the dumplings, Su Runruan went back to the kitchen and took out a bamboo cover and covered the dumplings with it.
There are tiny holes on this cover, which allows for excellent ventilation while keeping out birds and mosquitoes.
This thing is actually used more in summer, but I didn’t expect it to come in handy now.
The four of them were making dumplings together and talking about this. The dumplings were made quickly and time passed quickly as well.
When it was almost time for Xiao Aiguo and Qian Aiju to get off work, Grandma Chen asked Xiao Chengjin to stop what he was doing and go outside to take a look. If Xiao Aiguo and Qian Aiju were back, she would call them over so that she could cook dumplings.
The four of them worked for half the morning and had already wrapped most of the dumplings. They only needed another half an hour to finish the remaining dumplings.
Xiao Chengjin went out at the right time. As soon as he got outside, he saw Qian Aiju and Xiao Aiguo. Xiao Chengjin immediately called the two of them in.
Seeing the two people coming, Granny Chen was about to ask people to boil water and cook dumplings, but Qian Aiju stopped her, "You haven't finished making them yet? Aiguo and I will wash our hands and help make them. The six of us can work faster together, and it will be easier to eat them after we're done."
Grandma Chen thought about it and agreed, so she didn't object.
Just like Qian Aiju said, they all knew how to cook at six months old, and they could make dumplings faster if they worked together.
After about ten minutes, all the dumplings were wrapped.
A lot of dumplings had already frozen on the snow in the yard outside.
"Ruanruan, go pick some coriander and garlic sprouts and make some sour soup."
"good!"
Su Ruanruan agreed, stood up and walked out.
Xiao Chengjin also stood up and asked Su Ruanruan as he walked, "Are the vegetables in the backyard still alive now?"
It's so cold and snowy. Even if coriander is a cold-resistant crop, it won't grow well, right? "It's not planted in the backyard."
Su Ruanruan said as she led Xiao Chengjin to the room next to her room.
There are five rooms facing north and south in Su Jian's yard. The middle one is the main room. The first room on the east is where Grandma Chen and Su Aimin live, the first room on the west is where Su Ruoru lives, and the remaining two rooms are empty.
This winter was extremely cold and the only vegetables in the backyard were frozen to death. So Su Ruanruan and Grandma Chen came up with this idea of growing vegetables in the house.
Of course, they didn't dig up the ground in the house, but instead made some deeper wooden boxes, filled them with soil, and planted vegetables in them.
Because there are limited boxes, only a few vegetables can be grown, including coriander, spinach, garlic sprouts, etc.
There are fewer varieties, but at least it can add a little green to the winter dining table.
