Ye Zhiqiu and Wang Fugui returned to the living room and started to make tea. The tea from Feng Xiaomei's house was really good and tasted great.
As for asking Ye Zhiqiu how delicious the tea was, he could only smack his lips and say that it was a bit sweet!
Wang Fugui asked, "Grandson, you should go and handle the transfer procedures, right? You have to hurry up. You have to go early, you can't wait until the deadline."
Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said, "I'll go the day after tomorrow. I've already asked someone to help me. I want to go back to work at the brewery, so I need help!
I've been busy with this today, and it's already been taken care of. The day after tomorrow I'll go to the Labor Bureau to handle the transfer procedures."
Wang Fugui nodded, and they both lit up a cigarette and started smoking.
Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously, "Grandpa, what were you doing out for the whole morning?"
Wang Fugui said angrily, "Why do you always ask? You said you were meeting a friend. I can't possibly run away and do something bad, right?"
"It's hard to say, Grandpa, you look suspicious. I even suspect you're a spy!"
"Nonsense! Your grandpa is more like a spy!"
"Then I believe it. You sound like an underground spy, otherwise why are you so secretive? So, what's your position, Grandpa? Do you have a code name?"
Wang Fugui was too lazy to bother with it. If you believe it, don't ask! You can't tell me if you ask me. Why bother yourself?
Seeing that Wang Fugui ignored him, Ye Zhiqiu could only stop asking about it.
After finishing his cigarette, Wang Fugui was ready to catch up on some sleep, but Ye Zhiqiu wasn't sleepy. So he opened a bottle of wine and read a book called "Elementary Principles of Mechanics," slowly drinking it with shelled peanuts.
The reason why I look at this thing is because Feng Xiaomei's major includes mechanical design, so she has to know a little bit about it, not nothing at all!
It seems boring, but it is quite interesting when you think about it. So Ye Zhiqiu saw that Ye Wubing and his sister came back from school!
As soon as Ye Bailu came back, she hugged Ye Zhiqiu and said, "Brother, we have a day off tomorrow!"
Ye Zhiqiu asked in surprise: "Why is it a holiday?"
"Tomorrow is Sunday, and the teacher said that because of the cold weather, there will be no classes on Saturdays and Sundays from now on."
So that’s how it is!
Ye Wubing came back and greeted him, then asked what to make for dinner tonight. He was about to go to the kitchen to get busy.
Ye Zhiqiu simply went to the kitchen with him, and after taking a look around, he asked him to knead the dough and prepare to make dumplings.
Originally, the lunch box of braised offal was planned to be taken out in two days, but Ye Zhiqiu was really craving meat!
So he got down two pieces of pork. He brought back two pounds of pork yesterday. He originally thought that Wang Xiaolan would divide it into three meals, but who would have thought that she actually divided it into five pieces!
No, it should be six pieces, because there are five pieces hanging on it, plus what they ate last night.
He prepared to add meat and shredded radish to the stewed offal and make some not-so-pretentious but delicious buns!
Ye Bailu also came over to join in the fun, but since she wanted to learn, there was no need to refuse. Even if Ye Zhiqiu loved her, he didn't want her to grow up without being able to cook.
So he asked Ye Bailu to shred the radish. It was a simple thing, and it made her feel involved.
He went back to his room and pretended to take out the box of braised offal. When he returned to the kitchen, he opened the lid, took out a piece of pork liver and handed it to Ye Bailu's mouth.
The little girl didn't even know what it was, she just opened her mouth and swallowed it in and started chewing. This was the first time she had tasted this thing, it was tender and not too crumbly, and it was salty and fragrant, making her so happy that her eyes narrowed.
After finishing her meal, Ye Bailu was still not satisfied and asked curiously, "Brother, what kind of meat is this? It's so delicious!"
Ye Zhiqiu cut the pork and explained with a smile, "That's braised pork liver. Eating it is good for your health, but it's not suitable for wrapping in dumplings. Don't forget to give some to your second brother and grandfather to taste."
"I'll finish shredding the radish first. It's so delicious, I'll save it for when Mom comes back to eat together."
Hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu couldn't help but sigh, time flies! The girl who used to be greedy now knows how to save delicious food for her family!
Ye Wubing, who was kneading the dough, said cheerfully, "Little sister, give me a piece to taste. This fragrance has been wafting over here, and it's really making me greedy!"
Ye Bailu really ran over to get him a piece, handed it to him to eat, stuffed another piece for herself, and then ran back to continue shredding the radish.
After Ye Zhiqiu chopped the pork, he picked out the pig intestines, pig lungs, pig stomach, and pig head meat that had been braised in water, leaving only the pig heart, pig liver, and pig ears.
Then chop the selected offal into small pieces and put them together with the meat.
At this time, Ye Bailu had also finished grating the radish, and Ye Zhiqiu began to add salt to reduce the moisture.
Salting the radish not only removes water, but also effectively removes the rawness and bitterness. After half an hour, squeeze out the water with your hands, then stir-fry in a little oil for a few minutes to remove excess water.
After serving, add some oil and stir well to lock in moisture, then add the meat filling and seasoning and mix well. If the filling is made in this way, the radish will not release water, and the steamed buns will be delicious.
After the meat filling was prepared, the three of them started making buns. Unexpectedly, Ye Bailu also made them quite well!
Because there's a boiler in the kitchen, it's actually warmer than the living room once the door is closed! After all, the hot water from the radiator flows through the pipes to other places, and a lot of the heat is dissipated!
While making dumplings, Wang Xiaolan and her husband returned. It turned out that the subdistrict office hadn't adjusted their closing time and still closed at six o'clock. So Ye Tianya would always send Qian Dafu home, then wait for Wang Xiaolan to get off work, and then go home together!
When Wang Xiaolan saw two pieces of meat being taken away, she felt heartbroken at first, but then she felt relieved immediately.
Because she suddenly thought that since her eldest son was able to bring back more than two kilograms of meat this time, he can continue to bring back meat next time!
She didn't really feel bad about spending money on meat, after all, the world was just like that. She felt bad just now because she was still thinking about how hard it was to buy meat. If she ate it all up, she didn't know when she would be able to buy more meat to supplement her child's nutrition.
The two washed their hands and started making dumplings together. With strength in numbers, the fillings were quickly wrapped. There was still some dough left, which they divided into two steamed buns.
No one needed to do the rest of the work. After washing my hands and taking the lunch box, I returned to the living room. Wang Fugui had already returned to the living room to drink tea.
Ye Bailu held up the lunch box like she was presenting a treasure, and said to Wang Fugui with a smile, "Grandpa, look at the good stuff my brother brought back. It's delicious! It's much more fragrant than the braised pork head you bought last time. Grandpa, please try it. I'm not bragging!"
Wang Fugui said happily, "Okay, let me try it and see how delicious it is. It must smell good. Lulu is even better at eating than grandpa now!"
Ye Bailu took a piece of pig's ear and stuffed it into Wang Fugui's mouth. Then she couldn't wait to ask, "Grandpa, is it delicious? Such delicious braised offal, why don't you give it to Brother Qian and ask him to buy some back next time?"
"Hey, so you're waiting for grandpa here! But this tastes really good, grandpa agreed to this!"
