Chapter 62 This woman...is she a god?
Cut the white flour steamed bun in the middle, into two parts.
Sandwiched in the middle was a golden fried egg, a green leaf, and some pork cut into small pieces.
The amount of pork is not much, it is just for fat.
Jiang Rou also wanted to add some tomato slices, but there were none at home and she couldn't conjure them out of thin air.
But even just this, this steamed bun and egg sandwich is already very rich.
Even though it's cold, you can still smell the fragrance.
Zhou Xiaohua's little nose moved, and she licked the corner of her mouth and swallowed her saliva.
She was very greedy, but she didn't reach for the steamed bun sandwich.
Instead, she stretched out her little hand and placed it in front of Jiang Rou.
He raised his head, and stared at me with his big black eyes.
What it means is, [Your hands are dirty, so wash them].
Zhou Xiaohua was catching butterflies and digging wild vegetables, and her little hands were covered with black mud.
Jiang Rou touched her head and praised her.
"Good boy. Let's wash our hands together, Xiaochuan."
Jiang Rou opened the kettle and slowly poured water to help Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua wash their hands.
Then he took out a handkerchief, dipped it in a little water, and after wetting it, he wiped the two children's red faces and the hot sweat on their heads.
Finally, wipe your hands.
After wiping her hands clean, she handed over the steamed bun sandwich.
"Hold it carefully, don't let go, just bite it and eat it."
Jiang Rou warned softly.
Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua held the steamed bun, which was different from usual ones, carefully opened their mouths widely, and took a bite.
Take this bite.
Soft steamed buns, crispy eggs, tender vegetables, and a hint of meat.
tasty!
You can have everything in one bite!
Convenient and delicious.
The morning's fatigue almost flew away.
Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua first looked at each other in disbelief, then both turned their heads.
Two pairs of bright eyes looked at Jiang Rou in unison.
From pork belly to millet porridge, they had already been greatly astounded by Jiang Rou's cooking skills.
But every time there are more surprising surprises.
I didn’t expect that she could make such an ordinary-looking steamed bun so delicious.
This woman...is she a god?
The two children, who had little knowledge, thought in a simple way.
Jiang Rou smiled gently, holding her steamed bun and egg sandwich in her hand, and spoke while eating.
"Why are you looking at me? Eat quickly. If you don't eat now, I will come and take your food away after I finish eating first."
I heard that I was going to be robbed.
The two children's food-protecting nature was immediately aroused.
He immediately lowered his head and started eating.
The three of them sat under the shade of the trees, feeling the midday breeze. They took off the sun hats they had worn for half a day, revealing their faces that were damp with sweat and slightly red.
There is a sweet taste in the mouth, a cool breeze on the face, and spring scenery all around.
How pleasant it all is.
At this moment, Jiang Rou fell deeply in love with this world and this era.
She has to live this life more excitingly!
…
While the three of them, mother and son, were having dinner.
Lin Yulan came over from not far away, originally wanting to say a few words of concern, but she immediately saw the bamboo basket piled full of various wild vegetables next to Jiang Rou.
And the way the three of them were holding the steamed buns and eating rice with big mouthfuls.
Jiang Rou looked very comfortable and Lin Yulan didn't need to worry about her at all.
On the contrary, Lin Yulan, who had been exposed to the sun for so long, had no color on her face. She was sweating coldly and looked pale.
Therefore, the first person to express concern was Jiang Rou.
"Sister Yulan, are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so pale?"
Jiang Rou was afraid that Lin Yulan could not stand, so she helped her sit down on a wooden stake nearby.
After Lin Yulan sat down, she took a breath, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and spoke slowly.
"I'm fine. I just squatted on the ground and dug wild vegetables for a long time. Then I stood up suddenly and felt a little dizzy. I'll be fine after sitting down and resting for a while."
This must be hypoglycemia.
Jiang Rou came to a conclusion after listening to Lin Yulan's story.
She picked up the water bottle beside her and handed it to Lin Yulan.
"Sister Yulan, drink some water and moisten your lips. I added a little sugar to the water, so it's sweet."
Lin Yulan took the water bottle that Jiang Rou handed over to her, did not refuse, and took a sip.
It's really... sweet.
It's not as sweet as white sugar, but more like the sweetness of mountain spring water.
Very refreshing and comfortable.
As soon as she drank it, she instantly felt relaxed all over and even her vision became clearer.
Lin Yulan was surprised and blinked.
Jiang Rou looked at Lin Yulan's expression and knew that the water from Lingquan Creek had taken effect.
The water in her water bottle and the water bottle Zhou Xiaochuan carried on his back was not just ordinary boiled water, but spiritual spring water that she had taken out from the Lingbao space.
The water from Lingquan Creek is sweet and moist, with a hint of sweetness.
This is different from the hard natural water on the island.
Jiang Rou was worried that Lin Yulan would find out, so she simply said that she put sugar in the water.
After Lin Yulan calmed down, she returned the bottle to Jiang Rou and smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Sister Rou, I should be the one taking care of you, but now you are the one taking care of me."
"Sister Yulan, what's the big deal? You just drank a sip of my water. I didn't do anything."
Seeing that Lin Yulan was fine, Jiang Rou turned back to eating her steamed bun sandwich.
Lin Yulan looked over and saw the steamed bun in her hand, and she felt curious.
I asked, "I've seen steamed buns stuffed with pickles before, but this is the first time I've seen it. Is this a new way of making it?"
"Sister Yulan, this is not a new method. You know Shaanxi, the old base of our revolution. There is a specialty there called Roujiamo. It is made by cutting a piece of steamed bread into two-thirds in the middle. The steamed bread is like an open pocket. Put some minced meat, gravy, and vegetables inside and eat them together.
People there have been eating that way for thousands of years. It is an old Chinese tradition. It’s not that I didn’t have steamed buns, so I used steamed bread instead.”
Jiang Rou explained carefully.
She also took her steamed bun sandwich and handed it to Lin Yulan to see.
As for sandwiches, hamburgers... these Western words, she doesn't know a single word of them.
and.
Even those Western fast foods can't compare to the long history of traditional Chinese cuisine.
Lin Yulan was amazed when she heard this.
The other sisters-in-law around also pricked up their ears to listen to a few words. Especially when they heard the three words "roujiamo", someone immediately responded loudly.
"That's right! What Sister Rou said is absolutely right. Meat-stuffed steamed buns are a specialty of our area. Steamed buns with meat in them are so delicious!"
When everyone heard that it was delicious, they gathered together and started asking each other how the roujiamo was made.
Lin Yulan also walked back slowly to have her lunch.
…
The sun was shining brightly at noon, but the sisters-in-law did not start working immediately. After lunch, they continued to rest under the shade of the trees.
Zhou Xiaohua ate so much that her belly became round.
He licked the corner of his mouth and yawned.
This is laziness and sleepiness.
Jiang Rou waved at her, picked up the little girl, and let her lie on the grass with her head resting on her thighs.
One hand gently patted Zhou Xiaohua's back.
With the other hand he held a large leaf and fanned Zhou Xiaohua gently.
Zhou Xiaohua half-curled up her small body and rubbed her cheek against Jiang Rou's thigh. She felt so comfortable and relaxed.
So comfortable...
It's like being with my mom...
Jiang Rou lowered her head and noticed Zhou Xiaohua's ear. She had a lavender flower in her hair. (Photo)
She took a closer look...
This lavender flower has three petals, one of which is fully bloomed, while the other two are smaller and closed together, making it look like a flower bud.
Flowers like this...are pea flowers!
