Lu Qingyang grinned: "Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?"
Sun Xiangqian said in an affirmative tone: "Speaking of which, you are our matchmaker. Matchmakers should be treated as honored guests. You are also Xiaotang's benefactor, and my benefactor!"
Lu Qingyang patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, no need to be so cheesy, I will go and have a free meal."
As he said this, he took a bite of the shepherd's purse cake in his hand, and his taste buds were instantly conquered by the fresh and delicious taste, "This shepherd's purse cake tastes really good!"
Shepherd's purse can relieve night blindness, promote digestion, lower blood pressure and anti-coagulation.
"Where did your wife find this shepherd's purse?"
"It's on the hillside over there. It's all over the hill. If you like to eat it, I'll cut it for you."
"You can go by yourself. You're getting married soon and there's a lot to do. Get ready!"
He thought of the shepherd's purse wontons in his previous life. The shepherd's purse and pork stuffing were used to make the wontons look like ingots. Each one was delicious.
He was really greedy, so he planned to go dig some shepherd's purse later.
There is ready-made pork in the space, so you can go back and make shepherd's purse wontons.
Sun Xiangqian tried a piece of chili sauce and found a piece of meat in it. "Did you put meat in it?"
"Yes, how can we have the energy to work without eating meat! And thank you for your honey chili sauce! I haven't finished this bottle yet, so I'll leave it for you!"
As the afterglow of the setting sun fell and the whistle of completion sounded, Lu Qingyang could not wait to go to Shen Mo to dig shepherd's purse.
When Shen Mo saw this, her eyes immediately lit up:
"Shepherd's purse and egg dumplings, they taste delicious!"
"You guys use shepherd's purse and eggs to make dumplings?"
"Yes, it's my favorite!" Shen Mo immediately showed a nostalgic expression.
Lu Qingyang promised: "I will prepare a meal for you personally when I get home in the evening."
Lu Qingyang had already started cutting shepherd's purse. Since shepherd's purse was very similar to another wild vegetable, he had to be extremely careful when cutting it.
He moved quickly and soon filled the basket with shepherd's purse.
Turning his head, his sight fell on the side of the hill. Zhang Zhongwen was herding cattle, which were grazing on the green grass with their heads down.
"Brother Lu, why are you here?"
"Are you guys digging shepherd's purse? I dug some and prepared to eat some tonight. I'm glad to meet you. Here are some things. Can you bring them to Yuxiu?"
Zhang Zhongwen took out a package and a letter from his bag.
"Okay, no problem. My sister-in-law has been doing well recently. She's gained a lot of weight. The old couple treats her well and treats her like their own daughter. Relax, I'll think of a way..."
Zhang Zhongwen waved his hand and said, "Stop it. You have helped us enough. The days in the cowshed are much better than before. You don't have to worry. You help your wife and children. I am already very grateful to you. If you need anything in the future, I should help you."
Zhang Zhongwen didn't dare to have much contact with them. He looked around and carefully led the cow away.
After returning home, Shen Mo began to wash shepherd's purse, while Lu Qingyang kneaded the dough aside.
Wonton wrappers and dumpling wrappers are actually similar, except that dumpling wrappers are round and thicker, while wonton wrappers are trapezoidal and slightly thinner.
It was Lu Qingyang’s first time to roll out wonton wrappers by hand, and he managed to do a passable job.
After washing the shepherd's purse, rinse it with water and then chop it into pieces. These shepherd's purse are very efficient at doing this, so Lu Qingyang doesn't have to worry.
He prepared two kinds of fillings, one with shepherd's purse and pork, and the other with shepherd's purse and egg.
Shen Mo was curious: "Is this kind of dumpling skin?"
“This wonton wrapper.”
"Chaos?" Shen Molu had a confused expression.
Lu Qingyang knew that she didn't understand the meaning. "The name of wonton is homophonic with the word 'chaos', which means eating wontons in an unopened state, which means breaking the chaos and opening up the world. Do you understand?"
"I understand half of it." Shen Mo only understood half of it.
In front of this delicacy, the depth of understanding is not so important, what matters most is whether it tastes good.
Lu Qingyang taught her how to make wontons one by one: "Do you think they look like little ingots?"
“It really is similar.”
It was the first time that Grandpa Shen saw such food. "This is quite novel. I'll try it when the time comes."
Lu Qingyang was already boiling water on the side, while Shen Mo was still wrapping them carefully one by one.
When the water boils, you can put the first pot in to cook.
Lu Qingyang cooked dumplings first, and then cooked a pot of wontons.
Shen Mo looked at the two plates in front of her and ate one of the shepherd's purse and egg dumplings first, returning to the original taste.
I tried another wonton, and sure enough, the skin was thinner, with a different texture and a more prominent flavor.
“They are all delicious!”
Lu Qingyang served a bowl of wonton soup, added some other ingredients and sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions.
First, drink the soup. "It tastes amazing."
Grandpa Shen praised it again and again. This kind of food is most suitable for old people like them with bad teeth.
The whole family enjoyed the meal happily, and even the small animals at home were given a special meal without any seasoning.
I ate all the food I packed, leaving nothing behind.
"That's great. I was planning to bring some lunch tomorrow, but I ate it all."
Shen Mo touched her round belly apologetically: "You ate too much. I will control myself next time."
"What's there to be restrained about? Just eat as much as you like. If you don't have any, you can make a snack. But this is the only thing you have to eat to your heart's content!"
Uncle Shen stood aside, looking at the young couple chatting and laughing with a kind smile.
Shen Mo felt a warm feeling in her heart: "When the spring planting is over, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative with me to buy red cloth!"
"No problem. I have something to go to."
,
When you replenish some goods from Kong Laoliu from time to time, you will naturally make more and more money. Who would complain about having little money?
Moreover, the money in his hands was used as a primitive fund after the reform and opening up, paving the way for his future great plans.
Money is not everything, but it is something you can't live without.
After finishing her meal, Shen Mo was washing clothes in the yard when she suddenly discovered a few more furry chicks in the yard.
"Where did this come from? Did you capture Lu Qingyang? How come no one noticed it?"
Uncle Shen replied with a smile: "I saw these chicks in the chicken coop this morning."
"Don't you want to catch a chick? Okay, I'll catch one for you and take good care of it."
"Of course I will take good care of it."
She also planned to raise the chicken and eat its eggs, and make hen soup with them later.
