Chapter 109: Tortilla



There was a jar of pickled cabbage in the kitchen, jars of spicy cabbage, pickled beans, garlic eggplant, green onion leaves, pickled cucumbers, and freshly made radish kimchi.

6 bottles of chili sauce, 15 bottles of tomato sauce, dried chili peppers, dried beans, sun-dried cucumber slices, zucchini, eggplant, dried vegetables...

Su Xia dried everything that could be dried in the sun and packed them in clean bags, each weighing only about six pounds.

This stuff makes a lot of it when you soak it, plus dried black fungus, mushrooms, vermicelli and kelp, this winter we are lacking in vitamins.

Even if Su Xia eats her eggs every day, she has saved nearly 50 eggs now. Su Xia pickled 30 of them and kept the rest for later consumption.

It's getting colder now, and even if the chickens are well fed, they don't lay eggs as often as before.

Su Xia found another piece of plastic and covered the chicken coop to keep it warmer.

Even the windows in the front and back of the house were covered with plastic.

This way the winter will be warmer.

The coal stove in the living room had been lit up long ago, and the temperature difference between different rooms in the house was about 24 degrees.

Even if you wear nothing but clothes, you will still feel cold. Su Xia also moved the onions and leeks she planted into the living room so that they could bask in the sunlight coming in through the window every day.

During this period, Chen Jianguo's package also arrived, and Chen Jianjun went to get it on his bicycle.

I still remember the third child's joke at that time: "Sister-in-law, look, eldest brother B has sent all his family assets here."

Su Xia also looked at the big package speechlessly.

She could understand that this person only had 5 yuan left from his salary every month, and he used the money to buy things.

Last time, he also bought himself a watch. It turns out that men's words are deceiving.

Su Xia looked at the package with gnashing teeth, and hated it so much that she wanted to strip Chen Jianguo naked and ask him to hide his private money.

Chen Jianjun looked at Su Xia fearfully, "What's wrong with sister-in-law? She should be happy, why are you getting angrier and angrier?"

"Well, sister-in-law, I'm going to go home first. I'll come back to give you some water in the evening."

Then he ran away as if a wolf was chasing him.

Su Xia also ignored him. Now she liked everything.

Didn’t you see that Niuniu was already very angry and went to get the scissors?

"Mom, this is for you"

He also looked at his mother with what he thought was a cute smile.

In my heart, "What should I do? Mom is sick again. I really want Dad to come back. This way, after Mom and Dad have vented their anger, I will be much safer."

Chen Jianguo: "My daughter, you really love her!"

Su Xia could only open the packages first, and finally filled up the table in the living room.

The air-dried mutton weighs about 5 pounds, and I know which part it is, with a lot of lean meat. This soup is best to drink. Now Su Xia tries to drink more soup, which is good for the body and will not make her too fat.

Angelica, wolfberry, cordyceps, and two packets of brown sugar. Su Xia was speechless. Did she lack brown sugar?

A pack of milk gada, raisins, and 10 apples. This tastes better than the one I have back home.

The most important blanket was a plush blanket. Su Xia opened it and both sides were plush. She didn't know what it was made of. It felt thick and was almost one meter long, just right for one person.

Su Xia looked at the blanket. There were many colors, red, green and ordinary gray, but she still liked it.

Even Niuniu was touching it back and forth, "Mom, this is so soft and comfortable!"

He looked at Su Xia expectantly and said, "Mom, can you cover me?"

"Okay, let's talk about it after I finish washing."

I feel a headache looking at this thing. It is so difficult to wash.

First wash two apples and raisins, cut them into pieces and put them on a plate.

"Here, eat this first."

When Niuniu saw what 누 was eating, she forgot about the blanket and started eating an apple. She found that what 놊娘娘 bought was delicious.

"Mom, this apple tastes better than the one you bought."

Su Xia also found this delicious, sandy, crispy and sweet.

"Your father must have bought it specially for you. If it tastes good, eat it. If it's gone, ask your father for more."

Su Xia wanted to eat more and more, so she ate two more pieces.

When I opened the letter, I saw that it contained: 5 jin of cotton coupons, one pound of rice coupons, industrial coupons, sugar coupons, kerosene coupons, and even two milk powder coupons.

The whole letter was filled with the joy of being a father, as well as the guilt and longing for Su Xia.

Well, this man is still acceptable. Please curse less next time.

However, this person spent all of his two months' salary, so he sent money in November and December.

As for the pension, only Su Xia can help with the old house.

Su Xia was about to get angry, but after seeing that this blanket cost 50 yuan, she had no choice but to swallow it.

The materials and workmanship of this period are all handmade and natural, and can basically be used for 20 to 30 years.

I also don't know where this person came from.

Never mind, as long as the things are practical, I can just make more money.

Su Xia packed up a pile of things and took out two apples, half a bag of milk dumplings, and two pounds of mutton, and gave them to Chen's mother in the old house.

"Niuniu, go put on your clothes, I'm going to give your Niuniu something."

I found a basket to put it in.

Niuniu obediently went to the bedroom to put on her cotton coat, cotton pants and cotton shoes.

He put on his own hat, scarf, gloves, and carried the basket.

Su Xia put another 10 yuan in her pocket and said, "This is for your grandma. It's the retirement money your father gave you."

Then he let the kid go out with peace of mind.

Su Xia started to prepare dinner.

I found a casserole, put a chicken in it, and added some of the angelica and cordyceps that Chen Jianguo sent.

It started to simmer slowly.

Su Xia took out a pile of pork, pig intestines (without a can of pig blood), chicken breast, and various onions, ginger and garlic from the space.

Meat grinder, enema tool, battery.

Everything is arranged in the kitchen.

First, mince a large bowl of meat filling, and put minced green onion, ginger and garlic in it.

I made another pot of chicken breast filling.

Su Xia started washing the pig intestine casings again. Fortunately, she didn't stuff them all with blood sausage.

Su Xia prepared two large pots of stuffing and salted eggs.

Then I had the enema.

Tie the hemp rope section by section.

When it was finally done, there were already two large pots of sausages.

Su Xia built a rack in the kitchen and hung the sausages on it one by one. When they were half dried, they were put away. When they were ready to eat, they could be steamed, boiled, fried or pan-fried.

The chicken was almost done by then, so Su Xia added some wolfberries, salt and MSG.

As for the staple food, Su Xia had already distributed a bowl of noodles, which contained corn flour and white flour in a ratio of 2 to 1.

Now it has been sent out.

Su Xia put the pan on the stove, heated it, poured in oil, and then started frying the batter spoonful by spoonful.

Soon the golden tortillas will be ready.

When I was frying the second pot, Niuniu came back.

Su Xia looked at the kid humming a little tune and asked, "Why is it taking so long? What did your grandma say?"

Niu Niu took off her clothes, shoes and hat, and came to see what delicious food her mother was making.

Looking at the browned corn tortillas, just as he was about to grab them, Su Xia hit the back of his hand.

"What are you doing? Go wash your hands."

The kid could only bear it and go wash his hands first, and she forgot about it when she saw the delicious food.

Su Xia continued to bake her own pancakes, and then she heard the kid shouting, "Mom, is this hanging thing for food?"

Su Xia rolled her eyes in annoyance. This child would only be so excited when it came to eating and playing. He also knew that he would have to bake sweet potatoes when he went to college in the future.

But at her age, she would have to be 19 or 20 to take the first college entrance examination?

Su Xia didn't calculate it carefully, but at this age it's not too late. Remember, there was no age limit for the first college entrance examination, and even those who were married and had children could participate.

When Niu Niu saw that her mother didn't reply to her, she didn't know what she was thinking.

He didn't bother me, but just kept his eyes on the pancakes in the pot, and started swallowing water as soon as he saw them.

"Mom, can I have one first?"

Su Xia looked at the greedy kid and gave him a baked one first.

"Eat this first, the one in the pot is too hot."

The kid happily took it and took a bite and found it was sweet.

Looking at Su Xia in surprise, "Mom, it's sweet and delicious!"

"Of course, if anything I cook tastes good, I'll put sugar in it!"

Niuniu happily ate half of it and said, "Mom, can I give some to grandpa and grandma?"

Su Xia looked at the kid curiously, "Why are you thinking of giving it to your grandparents?"

The kid shook his head and said, "Grandpa and grandma love me so much. Every time they go there, they bring me delicious food and play with me. Grandma also takes me for a stroll in the village."

Su Xia looked at her and counted on her fingers, Chen and Chen's mother were good to Niuniu, it was true that the two of them did a better job of accompanying the children than she did.

Su Xia was also unwilling to go out. She would go to the front and back yards of her home every day, and occasionally to the back hill. She seldom played with her children.

"Okay, then you can send it off yourself. We'll talk about it after dinner."

Niu Niu nodded.
