Chapter 291 Goodbye Huang Nu
After the rice dumplings are ready, they need to be cooked for two or three hours.
When I was a child, I could eat rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival and the Spring Festival.
At that time, my mother would often make dozens of big rice dumplings during the day, and start cooking the rice dumplings in a big pot after dinner.
It really means boiling. It takes at least one night to cook the rice dumplings, and the fire cannot be turned off during this period.
Feng Yong’s rice dumplings are not as big as those made by his mother, but depending on the size, they still need to cook for two or three hours.
When the sun goes down, the whole yard is filled with the aroma of cooking rice dumplings.
Feng Yong sniffed, um, there was a vaguely familiar smell.
Braving the boiling water vapor, I picked up a rice dumpling that had been turned over once, picked up a chopstick and poked it in. Well, yes, the inside is already soft, so it should be almost done.
Untie the rice dumpling leaves and pinch them directly in the middle. The glutinous rice wrapped in meat and mung beans, mixed with the smell of rice dumpling leaves, rush towards you.
Feng Yong mixed glutinous rice and meat and put it in his mouth. It was sticky, salty, and oily. It was delicious!
Although it is not the taste that I remember when I was a child, it is enough.
“Okay! Let’s have dinner!”
Feng Yong said impatiently.
This Dragon Boat Festival, let’s be a salty person first, and then try something sweet later when there is a chance.
Feng Yong doesn’t like to eat the front and back ends of Zongzi. He only likes to eat the part with mung beans and meat in the middle.
When I was a kid, I made a big rice dumpling with my brothers and sisters. There was no meat or mung bean on both ends, but no one ate it every time.
Later, adults stipulated that you can only eat the middle part after eating the head and tail.
But no one cares about Feng Yong at this time. He pinches off both ends and puts them into the bowl. Then he smiles with satisfaction and starts to use the chopsticks beautifully.
It was my childhood dream to enjoy the middle part of a rice dumpling by myself.
As for people like Zhao Guang, as soon as the rice dumplings are served, he pulls off the straw rope, opens the rice dumpling leaves, picks up the rice dumplings with chopsticks and stuffs them into his mouth. In the blink of an eye, most of the rice dumplings are gone.
I don’t understand the fun of eating rice dumplings at all.
“Brother...well, how did you come up with the idea of making rice dumplings like this?”
Zhao Guang’s mouth was so hot that he was constantly inhaling and exhaling. While chewing very fast, he could still ask questions.
After finishing speaking, he saw that he had already finished one rice dumpling, and then he slipped another rice dumpling on the table in front of him.
“Eat it as long as it’s delicious and no one will compete with you. If it’s not enough, there will be more in the bathroom.”
That said, even though Li Qiu and Huang Chong eat elegantly, they are definitely not slow in eating chopsticks.
At this moment, a servant came to report that a lady Huang was visiting from outside.
“Huang Niangzi?”
Feng Yongyong could not help but glance at Zhao Guang.
Zhao Guang jumped up and hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth, "My sister must have arrived. I'll wait for my younger brother to go and greet her."
After speaking, he hurriedly ran out before Feng Yong could speak.
Feng Yong glanced at Guan Ji again and saw that Guan Ji's face was calm, but she didn't even raise her head to look up. She didn't seem to have done anything radical.
After a while, Zhao Guang came back with Huang Wudie as expected.
“Hey, what does it smell like? Why does it smell so good?”
Huang Wudieren just came in and before saying hello, he sniffed and said something.
“It’s better to come early than to come by chance. Mrs. Huang seems to be really lucky.”
Feng Yong smiled and said, "Madam Huang, long time no see. How are you?"
Huang Wudie returned the gift with a careless gesture, "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Feng. It's been a long time since I last saw you. I wonder how you have been lately?"
Huang Diewu glanced at Guan Ji behind Feng Yong and curled her lips, "Don't worry, Feng Langjun, I'm not here to find Guan Jiashi this time..."
"Um?"
Feng Yong interrupted Huang Diewu and coughed again.
"Well... I'm looking for a fight with that Guan family member."
Huang Wudie said vaguely.
Feng Yong only heard Guan Ji snort behind him.
Although he didn't look back to see Guan Ji's expression, Feng Tibi, who was standing between the two women, could already feel their strong murderous aura.
Feng Tibi looked around at the people present and saw that they all had their eyes lowered and their faces expressionless.
Wang Xun only knew about the situation of the two women, but what happened to Huang Chong and Li Qiu?
Holy shit, when you call your brother so affectionately on weekdays, are you all being hypocritical?
“Come, Mrs. Huang, let me introduce you to you. This is the magistrate of Nanxiang County, Li Xinhou, the son of the Li family.”
Feng Yong quickly transferred the firepower.
Li Qiu quickly stood up and saluted, "Qiu has met the daughter of the Huang family."
"This is the county captain of Nanxiang County, Huang Yizhi, the son of the Huang family."
“Chong met Huang Niangzi.”
Huang Chong also quickly stood up and saluted.
"Nice to meet you."
Huang Wudie returned the gift generously.
“Amei, give Mrs. Huang another piece of food.”
Fortunately, Huang Wudie is a foodie. When Amei quickly added a portion of food, her eyes lit up. She sat down unceremoniously, picked up the rice dumpling, looked at it, and asked, "What is this?" "
Although I didn’t know what it was, it was obvious that Huang Wudie swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
“Sister, this is a type of millet. It’s the way my brother’s master makes it. It’s delicious. Try it.”
Zhao Guang transformed into a dog leg and very diligently helped Huang Wudie peel off a rice dumpling.
Upon hearing this, Huang Wudie picked up her chopsticks and ate half of it in two or three bites.
“Well, it’s delicious!”
Huang Wudie didn't care about her behavior at all. She didn't regard herself as a woman at all, let alone eat with her sleeves raised and her face covered like Guan Ji did.
In fact, it looks very similar to the way Zhao Guang wolfed down the food at the beginning.
I saw her slurping down another bowl of millet porridge, and then she said, "I knew that there must be good food where Feng Langjun is, so I made the journey here in vain."
The rice dumplings were made according to the number of three per person. Huang Wudie came and killed four of them at once. After eating, he burped and said that he had made too little.
“Make more, I’ll still want to eat it tomorrow morning.”
Huang Wudie has a bold temperament. Her younger brother is Feng Yong's best friend, and she is one of the main food suppliers to the textile workshop, so she will not be polite to Feng Yong, so she immediately made demands to Feng Yong.
“Yes, yes,” Zhao Guang agreed from the side, “I want to eat it tomorrow morning too.”
Feng Yong first glared at Zhao Guang, and then refused, "We only eat this during the Dragon Boat Festival, who would eat it every day? Besides, the glutinous rice has also been used up."
Are you kidding me?
How can making rice dumplings be so easy?
Among these people, only I and Amei can do this, and I definitely don’t know how to do it. How can Amei be so busy alone?
As he said that, Feng Yong handed the bowl on his desk to Amei, which contained the heads and tails of the rice dumplings without mung beans and meat that he had picked out at the beginning, and then handed over the last one left on his desk. "Here, I reward you."
Fortunately, I can't eat that much. Otherwise, it would be a real injustice for Amei to work hard for most of the day and not even be able to eat a mouthful of rice dumplings.
