Chapter 11 Help each other
(Oh my god... I actually dropped the collection. What the hell... How many chapters are there this time... I feel like crying but I don’t have any tears...!)
"It's time to make dumplings...!" Zhu Lang chuckled and sat in front of the low table. At this time, Aunt Wang opposite was rolling out the dumpling skins one by one on the noodle table. Zhu Lang and Zhu Lang were sitting in front of the low table.
Wang Xue took the rolled out dumpling wrappers and quickly wrapped the dumplings stuffed with mutton.
This time, a lot of Chinese cabbage is added to the mutton stuffing, which is mixed with the Chinese cabbage and mutton. It will be delicious with both meat and vegetables.
The family sat together making dumplings, talking and laughing. The atmosphere was really good. In Zhu Lang's modern memory, there had never been such a warm scene, so Zhu Lang enjoyed it very much.
Later, Zhu Lang also asked about Erxiang, and Aunt Wang told Zhu Lang while rolling out the dumpling wrappers: "Erxiang, she is really a poor person.
My husband died in the hands of gangsters. He took his two sons, Da Gou and Er Gou, and fled here. It was really hard for a woman to live in a house... Fortunately, Er Xiang also knew a little bit about crafts.
He did not starve to death and raised his two sons, but...even though the big dog and the second dog are grown,...the family still lives in poverty. Xiaolang, grandma, I want to ask you a favor.
..!”
"Grandma...if you have anything to do, just give me your instructions. I'm your grandson, no matter what you ask for." Zhu Lang glanced at Aunt Wang deliberately and unhappily.
However, this unhappiness made Aunt Wang smile and said: "Hey... it's grandma's affair. Actually, it's not a big deal. I just hope you can take care of more big dogs and two dogs in the future. These two boys don't have a father.
It was already pitiful.
You bring the two of them to earn more money, and let them subsidize their families well...!"
"That's it...!" Zhu Lang smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, grandma, I will definitely do as you say. I also know that we are all poor people, so we must unite together...
.!”
"Yes...yes...as long as we poor people unite together, we won't be bullied by those bad people next time." Aunt Wang was obviously a little afraid of Mr. Chen.
"I'm done chopping...!"
At this time, Zhu Erbao returned to the house covered in sweat. In less than an hour, Zhu Erbao chopped a yard of firewood. His physical strength was really strong.
"You can't rest yet... There are a hundred dumplings here. You have to go to Erxiang's house again... Send them to Erxiang's house. I thought it would be better to give some dumplings. They will be so good.
If we bring you soybeans, we should also give others the best things from our homes.”
After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she pointed to the mutton dumplings that had just been made.
Zhu Erbao would never refuse his mother's request. After Aunt Wang gave her instructions, Zhu Erbao immediately packed the dumplings and went to Erxiang's house with a hundred dumplings.
When they arrived at Erxiang's house, Dagou and Ergou were very happy when they saw the dumplings sent by Zhu Erbao, because they had never eaten dumplings before, and the dumplings were stuffed with mutton. They knew without guessing that these dumplings
It must be the most delicious.
Unlike Big Dog and Ergou who were happy, Erxiang shed tears of gratitude. Zhu Erbao didn't understand why Erxiang cried suddenly. He was worried that he had done something wrong, so when Zhu Erbao saw Erxiang
After Xiang shed tears, she quickly helped Erxiang wipe her tears with her hands, and explained in a panic: "Erxiang, I didn't eat the dumplings secretly, I just opened them and looked at them. Don't cry. I promise not to do it next time."
Watched it."
Looking at the panicked Zhu Erbao, Erxiang cried even more sadly. Who can understand the hardships of a widow with two children who struggled through the Hongwu period. This mutton dumpling meal reminded Erxiang of her and her past.
The days when husband and wife are together are the most beautiful days.
As the snow continued to fall, Zhu Erbao went back. Erxiang called Dagou and Ergou to him. Looking at his two sons, Erxiang softly told the two brothers to remember the friendship between the Zhu family and the dumplings today.
No matter how many years have passed, this friendship must be remembered.
.............................
At night, the Zhu family and the Erxiang family all cooked dumplings stuffed with mutton in the porcelain jars. The dumplings were sizzling in the porcelain jars, one by one white and fat, round. Zhu Lang liked to dip some vinegar into these dumplings.
Eat...but Zhu Erbao and Wang Xue like to eat directly.
That guy, Aunt Wang has one for three, Zhu Lang has one for two, and Zhu Erbao and Wang Xue have one for each. A porcelain pot can cook about fifty dumplings at a time. The Zhu family cooked it four times in total, and cooked two hundred dumplings directly.
.
Among them, Zhu Erbao ate eighty by himself. After eating, Zhu Erbao's belly was so round that he could hardly walk.
Wang Xue ate fifty, but she couldn't hold it anymore. Zhu Lang and Aunt Wang each ate thirty-five, no more, no less, just right. When washing the dishes later, Aunt Wang did all the cooking alone.
The little kid Wang Xue was so full that he had to go to bed early. After Zhu Lang washed up and went to bed, the little kid said that his stomach was bloated, and Zhu Lang knew that he was full.
What do you mean, you have to give Wang Xue something to eat. After all, it’s his first time eating dumplings. If you don’t give them to him, the little guy will definitely be sad. But if you eat too much, you can only eat them until they are full and deflated.
Xiaozui always says that her belly is bloated.
There was no other way, so Zhu Lang had no choice but to put his hand on Wang Xue's belly and rub the guy's belly all night long, which made Zhu Lang feel sleepy. Fortunately, the little guy slept soundly.
.............................
Early the next morning, around five o'clock, the snow outside had stopped. By this time, Erxiang's big dog and second dog had arrived at Zhu's house. At this time, the Zhu family also got up.
Zhu Lang took the fishing net, and then Zhu Lang, Zhu Erbao, Da Gou, and Er Gou went to the big lake on the far right of Qingshan. The big lake on the far right of Qingshan is at the foot of Qingshan. It is very big and the scenery is very good. But
, because it is at the foot of Qingshan Mountain, there are no villages because the land at the foot of the mountain is not fertile.
Generally, fertile land is still in plains, so villages are generally located on fertile land.
Zhu Lang sat on the cart, and the four of them walked for about a quarter of an hour before they arrived in front of the big lake. As soon as they arrived in front of the big lake, Zhu Lang said: "Dad, you took the big dog and the two dogs to dig holes in the ice, but
, I have to dig it a little bigger this time, and I’m going to put all the fishing nets in it.”
"Hey... Got it."
Although Zhu Erbao was not very intelligent, he was still very good at the things he had been taught. After a while, he took Big Dog and Ergou to dig holes in the ice. While they were digging holes in the ice, Zhu Lang started to dig holes in the ice.
I started playing with the fishing nets. This time I have to lower all the fishing nets of more than 200 meters into the lake, so I have to get the threading rods in place...!
When Zhu Lang penetrated the pole, Zhu Erbao took Dagou and Ergou to dig out the lower net port and the net outlet port respectively at a distance of 200 meters... Waiting for the lower net port and the net outlet port to be dug, then they
A series of ice holes with a diameter of about 25 cm are drilled on both sides of the straight line connecting the lower net port and the net outlet.
This small hole in the ice is for releasing the pole hook...!
After everything was done, Zhu Lang began to lower the net. The two rods were connected to both ends of the large dragnet through waterline ropes, and then the rods and the dragnet were lowered into the water under the ice through the lower net opening.
With the help of the walking pole hook, the two threading rods each move forward along the predetermined dragging trajectory one ice hole after another.
After all this was done, the sky was already bright, and the faces of Zhu Lang, Zhu Erbao, Da Gou and Er Gou were all covered with sweat.
"Brother Lang...when are you going to close the net...!" Big Dog and Ergou came to Zhu Lang's side.
Zhu Lang chuckled and said: "Wait a minute, let's eat something first...!" To be honest, Zhu Lang threw a piece of maltose alone.
"Maltose...!" Dagou and Ergou looked surprised. You must know that the price of maltose is not low. Not many people in ordinary families can afford it. After Zhu Lang took one piece each, the two guys quickly bought the maltose.
Stuffed it into his mouth.
Maltose is very sticky to the teeth, but the fresh and sweet taste makes the big dog and the second dog smile brightly.
