Don't be cannon fodder one [Comprehensive]

Chapter 381

As soon as Lin Lin finished asking, she turned and went to the kitchen to look at the red kidney beans boiled in the ground pot.He opened the lid and saw that the beans inside were all boiled, so he took out a basin and put the beans and the water for boiling them in the basin.

He cleaned the pot again, added a pot of water to it, turned around and pulled out two corn stalks and started burning again.

Thirty today, I must eat better.But it was only the three of them who ate, and Lin Lin didn't like to cook too much, and then there were leftovers, so she prepared six dishes.

Northerners are used to eating two meals in winter.The last meal of the old year will be eaten at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and the food should be richer.

If there are a large number of people in the family, it will take a long time to eat a meal.After the meal, the children go out to play, and the adults in the family clean up the kitchen, take a rest, and wait until seven or eight o'clock in the evening to start preparing the New Year's meal after twelve o'clock in the evening.

The meal is usually dumplings.

As for the dishes, most people will not make new ones, and only serve the dishes from the lunch.

The stuffing of dumplings is also particular.

It is necessary to put meat, but other places, even people in the county, will use celery and leeks as fillings for vegetables mixed with meat.

Take the meaning of hard work and long-term wealth.

Because there are limited supplies in Taishu Village, there are almost only sauerkraut.Lin Lin didn't pickle sauerkraut this year, and the sauerkraut she used was given by the villagers.

He took out two sauerkraut, put the pots on the cutting board and carried them back to the house.

Taishu Xiaocui has already thought of her words after such a short time, but Lin Lin is so narrow-minded, she seems to have forgotten her previous question, and smiled and talked to Xiaocui about the customs of Taishu Village Favor.

While talking to Xiaocui, he also put the cutting board on the kang table, disassembled the two sauerkraut into thin slices and shredded them, and finally grabbed the shredded sauerkraut and poured it back into the basin.The others were still placed on the cutting board for Yao Tian to chop up later.

This job has no technical content, if Yao Tian can't do it well, then he won't even think about eating today.

While talking, Yao Tian and Xia Xiaoxue pushed open the door and came in, having something to say.Through the window of Lin's house, the two of them can still be seen fighting.

Lin Lin glanced out the window, then turned to look at Xiao Cui.

Xiaocui's complexion was indeed a little ugly, but it was not so ugly that it was distorted.

Here, the gate of each family's courtyard will be unlocked at dawn, and guests who come to live can come in as long as they open the door.The door is usually locked at night before going to bed.

Just like the door.

Yao Tian pulled open the door, let Xia Xiaoxue in first, and then he followed Xia Xiaoxue in.

As soon as they entered the house, it was the kitchen. Looking at the steaming pot in the kitchen, the two of them were still thinking about what was in the pot.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw that Lin Lin still had guests, and greeted Xiaocui with a smile. The two of them were shivering while taking off their coats.

It's too cold outside and too warm inside, and it's inevitable that it will be hot and cold.

Lin Lin touched the teapot, added some hot water to it, poured a cup for each of them, and hadn't spoken yet.Xiaocui stood up, "Well, it's getting late, and I have to go home."

After Xiaocui finished speaking, she trotted away, and when she went out, the door of the outer room was slammed loudly by her.

"What is she here for?" Xia Xiaoxue took off her shoes and got on the kang, ready to cover her feet before coming down.While covering her feet with a piece of clothing she put here, she asked Lin Lin.

Lin Lin glanced at Yao Tian calmly, smiled and shook her head, "Let's be free."

Xia Xiaoxue let out an 'oh' when she heard the words, she didn't pay attention, and pulled the melon seeds box to eat the melon seeds.Yao Tian was not so big-hearted, turned to look at Lin Lin, Lin Lin raised her eyebrows and smiled at him, and looked him up and down.

I have some narcissistic thoughts in my heart, and it is difficult to ask them out for a while.On the contrary, she was a little embarrassed by Lin Lin.

Lin Lin didn't make things difficult for him when it was Chinese New Year's Eve.Just keep him warm and then chop up the sauerkraut and make dumplings at night.

During the afternoon meal, Lin Lin came to Zhang Luo, Xia Xiaoxue was in charge of lighting the fire, and Yao Tian was in charge of washing the dishes.For the dumplings in the evening, Xia Xiaoxue made noodles, and Yao Tian was in charge of chopping the meat and sauerkraut, and then the three of them made the dumplings together.

It was only past ten o'clock, and Lin Lin was not in a hurry to do anything.Ask Yao Tian to stand by the kang and chop vegetables, while she and Xia Xiaoxue are both on the kang.

Lin Lin continued to collect the soles of the shoes she hadn't finished. Xia Xiaoxue took out the wool she brought and wanted to knit two woolen vests.

Now it seems that the only advantage of living in the educated youth spot is that Xia Xiaoxue has learned two more acupuncture techniques.

"Yao Tian has gone to the captain, and he can buy a homestead immediately if he wants it. But what Yao Tian and I think is that it would be great if we can have a ready-made house." Xia Xiaoxue envied Lin Lin's speed of building a house, but Under Yao Tian's guidance, Wei Wei didn't say a word about asking Lin Lin to help.

Living in an educated youth spot, eating with Yao Tian was like visiting a prison.She was ill the other day, if Lin Lin hadn't taken care of her for a few days, she would probably have gotten even worse.

And she heard from Yao Tian that there are more things going on with the male educated youths.So she and Yao Tian wanted to move out, not to mention the urgency.

"The captain said that Aunt Li lives alone in the north of the village. She has no children and no daughters. If the two of us are willing to provide for Aunt Li, we can move in."

Hearing Yao Tian's answer, Lin Lin knew what Yao Tian was hesitating from.

It's not a problem to have many old ladies, but to open their mouths too much.But when a person gets old, this problem and that problem will increase, and his temperament will also change.If there are any conflicts when living together, or if the old lady disappears in a few days... okay, it will cause a mess again.

Lin Lin thought about it, and felt that this method was not very good.

"I heard that Widow Zhang is going to remarry... It's about the first lunar month. Her house is not far from the educated youth spot. It would be great if she is willing to sell it."

Hearing what Lin Lin said, Yao Tian smiled wryly, "Forget about it, do you know who Widow Zhang is going to marry?"

"Who?"

Xia Xiaoxue was particularly annoyed when she mentioned this, "It's He Zhizhang. I borrowed money from Yao Tian at the educated youth spot yesterday, and it was almost a betrothal gift."

In front of so many people in the room, Yao Tian borrowed ten yuan with one mouth, but Yao Tian didn't borrow it.In the end, Yao Tian only said that he spent a lot of money when he first came here, and he only had three yuan left in his hand.I kept one and borrowed two.He also said that there was no need to pay it back, just treat it as his and Xia Xiaoxue's share of the money.

Lin Lin didn't know about this matter, and didn't know what to say for a while, "Bring me a dollar for me later."

Lin Lin straightened her body and took out a dollar from the drawer of the kang cabinet behind her, and handed it to Yao Tian.

Yao Tian took it and put it in his pocket, and continued to chop dumpling stuffing.

The college entrance examination will be resumed in a few years, Lin Lin can say with certainty that Yao Tian and Xia Xiaoxue will definitely take the college entrance examination.So building a house now is nothing but earning a huge sum of money.But Lin Lin also understood that the two of them wanted to move out.

Pursing her lips, Lin Lin made a decision. "The house outside is almost finished. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month comes out in a few days, the doors and windows I ordered at Uncle Mu's house should also be finished. If you want to, you can live there temporarily."

Anyway, she deliberately built more than 100 square meters of the small clinic outside to occupy the land.

The so-called more than 100 square meters is a real usable area.It is not impossible to annex [-] square meters to accommodate the couple who are about to get married.

But the house is also empty at night, the two of them live there, it's all just looking at the house.

"You mean your small clinic?" Xia Xiaoxue was very surprised, she glanced at Yao Tian, ​​and Yao Tian also looked at Lin Lin, "Aren't you going to open a small clinic?"

"Open it. Anyway, the house is big, and I will be enough to leave a room for you to live in. Then you will have a place to live, and you can buy homesteads and build a house slowly."

Lin Lin's idea was naturally good, but Yao Tian and Xia Xiaoxue felt that it was too much for Lin Lin.

The two of them always ate and took at Lin Lin's place. Although they would try their best to bring some things to Lin Lin, they took more or less.

"That would be the best, but it's agreed, we'll pay the rent." Yao Tian thought for a while and seriously proposed to Lin Lin.

Lin Lin nodded, "Okay, what a big deal."

When she answered with a smile, Lin Lin began to think about how to tidy up the small clinic again.

The [-]-square-meter house was given out to [-]-square-meter house for Yao Tian and his wife to live in.For the remaining [-] square meters, a warehouse for storing medicines needs to be annexed.

After thinking about how much space the warehouse would need, Lin Lin planned to annex Shisiping as well.

The innermost one is the medicine room, the outside is used as a place for her to work and rest, and a bed can be placed on the opposite side, which can be used as an examination room for women.

In the middle of [-] square meters, put a small single bed, a few chairs and a table, simple and practical.

In the middle, it was originally planned to open two doors, one front and one right.One opens outwards, and the other opens inwards directly into Lin Lin's courtyard.But since it was going to be rented to Xia Xiaoxue, Lin Lin decided not to open the inward door for the time being, and it would not be too late to open it after they returned to the city in a few years.

If this house is a home, another foreign water well has to be drilled, but the location has to be reconsidered.

The small clinic is an improved version of geothermal heating, and it will be fine to prepare a double bed inside later.As for the other furniture, she will match it later, which will save a lot of trouble for them.

After chatting for a while, Lin Lin and Xia Xiaoxue went to the ground.

Lin Lin is going to cook six dishes, three cold and three hot.

The cold dishes are very simple, that is, cold shredded potatoes, diced radish with sweet and sour fungus, and pork liver with mashed garlic.

The hot dishes are steamed fish, stir-fried sauerkraut powder, and a casserole stew.

Lin Lin unpacked a piece of rabbit meat, and put some meatballs made of pork and leftover rice, frozen tofu, dried eggplant and other dried vegetables, and finally added some shiitake mushrooms, and put the mushrooms and peeled quail eggs in the casserole, anyway It's a solid dish.

The water in the ground pot had boiled a long time ago, Lin Lin scooped out half of the pot, and put the shredded potatoes that had been cut in the morning into it and blanched the remaining half pot.After the shredded potatoes were taken out, Lin Lin added the washed rice into the rice bean bowl and steamed it in a ground pot over water.Put the rabbit meat that had been cooked a long time ago in a casserole and stew it on a small stove.

When the casserole is opened, pour the prepared dishes into it one by one.Then salt was added, the lid was placed on the stove and simmered over medium heat.

The boiled potato shreds are mixed with onion, ginger, garlic and chili oil, then put aside and wait to be served.Then the sliced ​​radish and soaked fungus are also marinated with the adjusted sauce and poured into a shallow plate.

The pork liver was boiled with water the day before yesterday. Lin Lin took the pork liver out of the warehouse, cut it into thin slices, and evenly stacked it on the plate. There was a space in the middle of the plate, and the mashed white garlic with only salt and water was used. The bowl is placed in the middle of the plate.

After Lin Lin finished three cold dishes, she turned around to pack the fish that was about to be steamed.

There is a river outside Taishu Village. When the villagers are free, they will catch some fish and come back to pickle them with salt or dry them in the sun.So even if Lin Lin took the space fish out, Xia Xiaoxue thought it was given to Lin Lin by the villagers.

"Every time I watch you cook, I feel that cooking is a very simple thing. But how can I do it." She cooks delicious and neat food, and her cooking is better than pig food.

Cut a few cuts on the back of the fish with a knife, put ginger slices inside, and rub salt on the fish. Lin Lin put the pot on the plate, opened the lid, and carefully placed the fish plate next to the rice bowl. "You just don't do much, and you are not used to the stove here. After a long time, you will know that this kind of pot is actually very easy to use. Just keep an eye on the time and tell me when the time comes." The fish steamer is old, It's unpalatable.

"I know, 8 minutes after boiling."

Lin Lin was right.

When Xiao Cui came here before, Lin Lin cut the shredded sauerkraut and kept a handful. Now his son washed it with clean water and put it together with the soft vermicelli soaked in hot water.

When the rice is ready, the pot is vacated, and the oil in the pot is fried for a few times before it is cooked.

"By the way, Liu Xi, do you still remember Chen Li?"
