Chapter 375 Suspicion
There is glutinous rice flour but no glutinous rice at home.
But it’s not a big problem, Liu Yinyin can buy some glutinous rice from the system.
Anyway, Gu Cheng is not at home, so no one else will know whether there is glutinous rice in her house.
As for the rice dumplings leaves, we still have some left over from last year at home, and if they are not enough, we can sell them again.
In fact, making zongzi to replace other supplies was just a cover she came up with.
Looking back, Liu Yinyin still had to smuggle a batch of supplies out of the system.
"Of course!" Mrs. Liu's voice rose two degrees. "I was wrong with the military officer's wife. Comrade Zheng and I have already agreed to come early tomorrow morning to cook for her."
"We'll go and gather them later, and let her do the rest of the work in the afternoon."
Zheng Qiangwei is not incapable of doing any housework at home. She usually helps out with housework at home.
Pregnant women also need exercise.
Zheng Qiangwei was pregnant and certainly didn't dare to go to the market, but that didn't mean she had no interest in going to the market.
She had already asked Liu Ersao to buy pork, chicken, duck, eggs, etc. at the market.
Bring some back for her.
Mrs. Liu considered and said, "I won't bother myself. I can just make some simple food and sell it to earn some food."
She has a job now and can still afford some things.
Mrs. Liu hasn't gone fishing recently, so there's no extra seafood at home.
Like Liu Yinyin, I can only make some snacks with grains.
Liu Yinyin plans to make zongzi...
Mrs. Liu definitely doesn’t know how to make rice dumplings because her family doesn’t have glutinous rice.
Having no idea in mind, after thinking for a while, Liu Ersao decided to make a basket of cornmeal and brown sugar steamed cakes, which she was good at.
Simple and convenient.
Mrs. Liu still has enough food at home, but Brother Liu eats commercial food.
She and her children had enough food for a year back home.
After working at Zheng Qiangwei's house, I was provided with a lunch, which saved me some food.
After dinner, Liu Yinyin started making rice dumplings.
She smuggled ten kilograms of glutinous rice out of the system.
Wash the glutinous rice and put it in a bowl, add light soy sauce and dark soy sauce and marinate for a while.
Liu Yinyin was thinking about making rice dumplings with three kinds of fillings.
Egg yolk meat filling, peanut meat filling, and pork are precious, so you can put less of them.
There are also salted egg yolks. We have salted duck eggs and salted chicken eggs at home, but it is a waste to use the egg yolks directly from salted duck eggs.
Liu Yinyin bought a pack of salted egg yolks directly from the system.
Then wrap one with candied dates filling...
Liu Yinyin smuggled out another two kilograms of pork belly from the system for pickling.
After working for about two hours, Liu Yinyin wrapped almost a hundred dumplings.
There are twenty with egg yolk and meat filling, thirty with peanut and meat filling, and the most are with candied date filling, at fifty-six.
After they are cooked, you can keep a dozen for home, and take the rest to the market to sell tomorrow.
These days, supplies are scarce, and even during the Dragon Boat Festival, few people would make rice dumplings to eat.
This thing is considered a good thing in the countryside, and it will definitely sell.
One hundred and six rice dumplings were placed in the pot to cook, and Liu Yinyin threw a few pieces of firewood into the stove.
Get up again in the middle of the night to add more firewood, and the rice dumplings will be almost cooked by tomorrow morning.
It's about seven o'clock now, and the sky will be bright.
Liu Yinyin got up at six o'clock, and a hundred or so rice dumplings were already cooked.
In the morning, Liu Yinyin and Gu Yanyan each ate a rice dumpling stuffed with candied dates.
Had a bowl of millet porridge.
Liu Yinyin left five dumplings with egg yolk and meat filling and five dumplings with candied dates filling.
Liu Yinyin put the remaining ninety-four dumplings in a basket and took Gu Yanyan out.
I don’t plan to set up a stall this time. I’ll just walk around the market and exchange rice dumplings for anything I want.
After a walk around, Liu Yinyin exchanged for two pumpkins, five kilograms of white radishes, and five kilograms of carrots.
It was a rare opportunity, this time I even got a bag of water chestnuts, weighing about three or four pounds.
There is food at home, no need to exchange it.
Liu Yinyin mainly wanted to change some vegetables and meat dishes...
I got a duck and a basket of duck eggs in exchange.
I have exchanged all the rice dumplings I brought, there are so many big and small packages.
Liu Yinyin went back to put her things away first, and then when she went to the market, she met Yang Liu.
She also went to join the gathering, but she looked panic-stricken.
"What's wrong?" Liu Yinyin asked.
Yang Liu calmed down, patted his chest and said: "I was almost scared to death just now, didn't you see..."
Yang Liu wanted to say something but hesitated, not daring to say it out for a while.
Liu Yinyin glanced at her and didn't ask any more questions, and the two of them went to the market together.
After walking a little further, Yang Liu whispered to Liu Yinyin: "Well, I just saw Teacher Qiu and Teacher Jiang pushing each other behind the back. I don't know what they were doing."
Yang Liu's home was close to Brigade Commander Wei's home, and he had to pass by his home when he went out.
If there is any movement in Brigade Commander Wei's family, her family will usually know about it.
There is a small alley between the two houses. Jiang Yuan and Teacher Qiu were talking in the alley just now...
Yang Liu didn't dare to look at it any longer and ran away in a hurry.
In fact, this was not the first time Yang Liu saw the two of them talking together.
Before, Yang Liu thought that since both of them were school teachers, they probably had school matters to discuss, so he didn't think too much about it.
However, the behavior of the two people just now seemed very intimate, not like an ordinary colleague relationship.
Liu Yinyin paused and asked in confusion: "Teacher Jiang...Brigade Commander Wei's lover?"
"Yes." Yang Liu was not a person who liked to gossip, so he told the truth, "I don't know if there was any misunderstanding between the two of them. I just saw that they seemed to be arguing, and Teacher Jiang even slapped Teacher Qiu."
Liu Yinyin: “…”
She almost forgot that Brigade Commander Wei and his family came to express their gratitude.
Liu Yinyin also discovered that the scarf Jiang Yuan was wearing at the time was exactly the same as the one Teacher Qiu bought at the supply and marketing cooperative.
One time could be a coincidence.
Yang Liu is saying the same thing now...
The relationship between the two of them is probably not simple.
"It shouldn't be that serious." Yang Liu also had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't believe that the two people were so brave. "Teacher Jiang is a soldier's family member, and Teacher Qiu is like this..."
If two people have an affair, it would be almost a crime.
The most important thing is that if they are discovered by Brigade Commander Wei, he will definitely not let them go easily.
Liu Yinyin's eyes dimmed: "We don't know what happened between them, so let's not tell Brigade Commander Wei yet."
What she did to Jiang Yuan and Teacher Qiu was certainly shameful, but Captain Wei was old and did not look well.
If he knew about this, he would probably be devastated.
Yang Liu didn't want to get involved in this matter. "I know, I won't tell anyone else."
