Chapter 57 Sticky Bean Buns

"An Ning, Laba is over, when will our family eat pig meat?"

Pig meat is one of the customs in the Black Province.

After the Laba Festival, the villagers will prepare to kill pigs and chickens, cut the pork into pieces, and store it in a place where it can be stored, such as a well or a large vat, and then eat it during the New Year.

The Heilongjiang province has only allowed villagers to raise pigs, chickens and ducks in their own homes in recent years, so they have rarely eaten pig-killing vegetables. However, for rural people in Heilongjiang Province, eating pig-killing vegetables is second only to the Chinese New Year in happiness.

"Lin An wrote a letter some time ago and said that he will be able to take a vacation and go home for the New Year around the 27th of the twelfth lunar month. It's only a few days away. Let's wait for him."

"Hey, it's done!"

Mother Lin cut the freshly cut hair in her hand . Bring the good window grilles to Dachun, "You and your sister go to put up the window grilles, be careful not to freeze your hands."

"I understand, grandma."

"A-Ning, have you bought the glutinous rice and red beans I asked you to buy? "Mom will steam sticky bean buns for you."

"Yes, I'll get it right away!"

The family is busy, although they are all trivial things, but the small details are full of warmth.

In comparison, the Educated Youth Academy was much deserted.

Gu Jun and Li Qianqian have returned to the Educated Youth Academy.

After staying in the detention center for a few days, both of them lost weight and seemed to have completely lost their energy.

In particular, after they returned to the Educated Youth Academy, the few educated youths who had been friends with them in the past completely regarded them as savage beasts and avoided them.

Because the last plan against Xu Wanning failed, several gangsters were imprisoned in the dark room, so Gu Jun paid a large sum of money to the boss behind them to avoid a severe beating.

So now, Gu Jun is penniless, and even food is at the bottom.

Gu Jun had no choice but to turn his attention to Li Qianqian.

"Qianqian, I remember you have a gold bracelet. How about you exchange that bracelet for money and let's buy some food? Look at me, I haven't eaten a bite for several days."

Gu Jun grinned as he spoke He had yellowed teeth in his mouth and his breath was even more off-putting.

Li Qianqian calmly moved back a little, keeping a certain distance from him.

God knows why she couldn't think about it before. Why did she think Gu Jun was a rare and good man and try to compete with Xu Wanning? It's better now. Xu Wanning's rationality has returned. She doesn't want Gu Jun anymore. She still has to tangle with this ghost.

It’s bad luck just thinking about it!

"Gu Jun, you know, that bracelet is a family heirloom left by my grandma. If I exchange it for money, and my parents find out, they will beat me to death!"

"The capital is so far away from Dajiang Village, as long as we If we don't tell them, they won't know at all."

"Am I going to stay in Dajiang Village for the rest of my life and not return to the capital?"

"This... is a big deal. I'll find a way to give the bracelet to you before I return to the capital. You can change it back, is that okay? "

Is that okay?

Why does this tone sound like she is making trouble unreasonably?

Li Qianqian almost yelled at Gu Jun, but it wasn't time for the two of them to break up, so she could only give in for the time being.

"I don't have that bracelet with me, so even if I want to exchange it for food, I can't do anything about it. But having said that, I remember that before you came to Dajiang Village, you were carrying a pocket watch. That pocket watch must be very valuable. Otherwise, you Exchange your pocket watch for food?"

Gu Jun: "..."

Li Qianqian continued: "Gu Jun, can you really bear to watch me starve?"

Gu Jun was silent again.

How come Li Qianqian beat him to the speech he had prepared?

However, Gu Jun knew in his heart that Li Qianqian was different from Xu Wanning. Although she liked him, she was far from accommodating to him.

"Forget it, I'll think of something else."

The Lin family.

Mother Lin steamed a big pot of sticky bean buns, which looked very satisfying.

"These are made with red bean filling. I specially made these meat floss for you. I have never tasted it before. I don't know if it tastes good. Try it and see."

Xu Wanning made the meat floss from chicken breasts . , purely natural and pollution-free, and the taste is always worse than those with additives.

But when added to sticky bean buns, they were surprisingly delicious. Xu Wanning ate three of them in a row.

However, Mother Lin and Yaomei Dachun obviously only like to eat sweet food and are not interested in meat floss and sticky bean buns.

The sticky bean buns may not look big, but they are made of grains, which makes them very filling. After only eating three, Xu Wanning felt full.

"Dachun, you and Yaomei send these two plates of sticky bean buns to the captain and the village chief's home respectively."

Mother Lin put seven and eight sticky bean buns on the two plates, corresponding to the captain and the village chief respectively. The number of people in the village chief’s family.

This is a custom in Dajiang Village. Every year after cooking the sticky bean buns, they will give some to those close to them.

Dachun and Yaomei stuffed all the remaining sticky bean buns into their mouths, and each carried a plate and went out.

After a while, the two came back again, still holding plates in their hands, but there were five sticky bean buns on them.

Although Lin An hasn't returned home yet, the captain and village chief seem to have counted him in, so they are ready to take his share.

Mother Lin loaded a few more plates and was about to let Dachun and Yaomei run around again, when she heard a knock on the door.

"I'll open the door!" Dachun jumped off the chair and ran to the door quickly.

As soon as he opened the door, a large group of people poured in. Fortunately, Dachun quickly ducked aside, otherwise he probably would have been squeezed into a meat pie by the crowd.

"Sister-in-law Lin and Wan Ning are both at home. I'm here to deliver sticky bean buns to your house."

"And me, I'm also here to deliver sticky bean buns."

"Isn't it a coincidence? We met on the road. "

A large group of maids and sisters-in-law talked to each other and made Xu Wanning's head hurt.

She pressed her temples with her fingertips, greeted the group perfunctorily, and turned into the kitchen.

She is not good at dealing with this kind of situation, so she should leave it to Mother Lin!

"Oh, isn't it all the children's business to deliver sticky bean buns? Why did you make the trip yourself?"

"Hey, aren't you worried that my little boy won't be able to hold such good sticky bean buns safely ? It fell on the ground."

"Your tree trunk is more than a year older than my Dachun, right? My sister can send sticky bean buns to the captain and the village chief's family, so why don't you worry about your grandson?

" Girls, be careful, my brat is no match for that!"

Mother Lin couldn't help it. After all, people came with kind intentions. She couldn't block people in the yard all the time, right?

If she really did this, I'm afraid there would be a lot of people in the village who would poke her spine tomorrow.

"Come in and sit down first. I'll boil some hot water for you."
