The Local Lazy Man System

Chapter 167 Tang Yuan

After watching the "black head" of the big snake head fish, Ye Rongyao went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Today, Ye Rongrong was going to make dumplings. In the south, people will eat a bowl of dumplings on the winter solstice.

The wandering child who is far away from home eats a bowl of hot dumplings on the winter solstice, which means that this year's life outside is full and complete. It's time to prepare to go home for the New Year and reunite with parents, wives, children, and sisters at home.

The elderly at home eat a bowl of hot dumplings on the winter solstice, knowing that the children who are far away are coming back to unite, it is time to prepare the New Year's goods and wait for the children to come back for the New Year.

Today, Ye Rongrong is making Ningbo Tangyuan. It uses the first-class glutinous rice that is abundant in the south to be ground into powder to make skin, lard suet is used to remove tendons and membranes, minced and chopped, put in a basin, add sugar, mix well with sesame powder Into the lard sesame filling small balls.

Water milled flour is mixed with water and kneaded into a smooth dough, kneaded into a wine cup shape, put in the filling, closed and rounded into a dumpling. Boil the water in the pot, add the dumplings and cook for three minutes. When the dumplings float, add a small amount of cold water and push with a spoon to prevent sticking to the pan.

Cook for a while, until the filling is mature and the skin of the dumpling is jade-colored and shiny, scoop the soup into a bowl, add sugar, and sprinkle with osmanthus. It is a very simple method.

This kind of glutinous rice ball is also called "sweet glutinous rice ball" in Ye Rongyao's place. Ye Rongrong loved to eat this kind of glutinous rice ball when he was a child.

When I was a child, when my mother made "sweet glutinous rice balls" for Ye Rongyao to eat during the winter solstice, she would tell Ye Rongrong that you are one year older and you should be sensible.

In the southern winter solstice, the glutinous rice balls are usually cooked before dawn. After the family gets up, they have to eat a bowl of "glutinous rice balls". After eating this bowl of glutinous rice balls, it means that everyone is one year older. Not yet, but everyone has added a year.

Looking at the two bowls of steamed dumplings in front of him, Ye Rongrong couldn't help thinking of his parents. Eating dumplings meant that the family was reunited, but now, apart from his wife Liu Qingqing, there is no one who is familiar with his parents. voice and looks.

It's just that Ye Rongyao thinks back from time to time. The lost family love is always so memorable and nostalgic. Ye Rongrong thinks so much that his parents can also eat the dumplings he made.

It's a pity that all this has become an extravagant idea for Ye Rongyao.

The past is like smoke, leaving only the living people and the nostalgia for the lost relatives.

Shaking his head, Ye Rongyao hid his emotions deep in his heart, the past is over, all he can do now is to cherish the people around him even more.

...

"Husband, is breakfast ready?"

Liu Qingqing walked into the kitchen and asked. Liu Qingqing, who is used to getting up early, really can't sleep early in bed.

"Okay, let's eat dumplings this morning." Ye Rongrong said.

"Eat the dumplings, okay." Liu Qingqing said happily.

...

"Husband, I know an interesting story about dumplings, do you want to hear it?"

A few hot dumplings entered his stomach, Liu Qingqing suddenly felt cold, and said happily to his man.

"What an interesting story, let's hear it." Ye Rongrong asked curiously.

"It is said that in ancient times, Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals, turned into an old man selling glutinous rice balls by the West Lake in the third month of spring."

"At this time, a man named Xu Xian happened to pass by and asked for a bowl. Suddenly, a dumpling rolled into the West Lake and was swallowed by the white snake. So the white snake became a fairy, turned into a human, and married Xu Xian as husband and wife. ."

Liu Qingqing slowly told the story of "White Snake and Xu Xian".

"Hehe, my wife, who co-authored White Snake, married Xu Xian because she ate a glutinous rice ball." Ye Rongrong couldn't help laughing.

"Why not?"

Liu Qingqing glanced at his man and said. I finally remembered a story about dumplings and told him that he was like this, and Liu Qingqing was very shocked.

"Okay, how can you not, wife, in our south, after the winter solstice, eating dumplings means a big one, you are already twenty, should we prepare for the baby's affairs?"

Ye Rongrong said. Ye Rongyao is almost thirty, and everyone as old as him in the village already has children. If Ye Rongyao doesn't care, it would be too fake.

"Husband, can you give me some more time? I really want to have a baby for you, but now I..." Liu Qingqing said with a pale face.

"Okay, don't talk about it, wife, it's okay after two years, wife, you are still so young, and it's okay to be born after a few years, I'll just say this, I haven't had enough of our lives, I really am not. I really want kids."

Ye Rongyao interrupted Liu Qingqing's words and said. Ye Rongyao didn't want to put any pressure on his woman, although Ye Rongrong really wanted a child, so that the parents who were already in the kingdom of heaven knew that they had grandchildren and made them happy on the side of the kingdom of heaven.

But Ye Rongyao didn't want to make his woman suffer. Ye Rongyao knew that his wife was a little bit reluctant to have children now. Although Ye Rongrong didn't know the reason, Ye Rongyao knew that he couldn't make his woman sad, so Ye Rongyao put the responsibility on himself, I don't want to make it difficult for my own woman.

"husband……"

Liu Qingqing cried with tears in her eyes.

"Okay, don't cry. Tears fall into the dumplings, and the dumplings won't be sweet." Ye Rongrong wiped the tears from Liu Qingqing's face and said with a smile.

...

After breakfast, Ye Rongyao lay on the chair, basking in the sun outside the yard, watching with interest the group of furry children in the village feeding the "Blackhead" guy by the pond.

Ye Rongrong couldn't help but sigh that the villagers really caught a lot of fish in the village pond yesterday, but almost every one of these furry children brought at least one big fish with at least one kilogram in their hands.

I don't know if the parents of these furry children, if these furry children bring their own fish to feed their "blackheads", will they beat their farts with brooms.

Ye Rongrong thought maliciously.

Of course, Ye Rongyao watched these furry children feed their own "blackheads" with their own fish, and he definitely wouldn't care, so he just saved himself the trouble and didn't need to feed them.

Blackhead is not afraid of people, and when he sees a child, he swims to the edge of the pond and waits for the fish to eat with his mouth open.

Suddenly I heard someone talking in the distance, "Wangzai" and "Xiaobai" who were basking in the sun beside Ye Rongrong jumped up and rushed over.

I saw the old village chief leading a man in a tank top with a pair of eyes on the bridge of his nose, Ye Rongrong could tell at a glance that this man was not from Taoyuan Village.

"Old village chief, what kind of wind blows you here." Ye Rongyao stood up from the chair and greeted the old village chief and the others with a smile.
