Chapter 124 Roe Deer Meat Steamed Dumplings
This autumn, Sheng Liancheng and his son were very busy. They could only take advantage of the little time they had in the morning and night to tidy up the new house.
Finally, everything has been sorted out in the past few days. Sheng Liancheng discussed with Zhang Shuzhen to move there as soon as possible.
Otherwise, winter logging will begin in the forest farm in a few days, and the Sheng family will have to lead the team up the mountain again. They will not rest until the new year, and there will be no time to move.
After much thought, we finally decided to move on the 21st, which is the seventh day of the ninth lunar month.
Anyway, it’s just moving from an old house to a new house.
At this time, every household doesn't have many valuable things, so it's just a matter of moving some furniture, pots, pans, and the like.
The wood in the warehouse was almost used when building the house, and only a large pile of firewood was left. We will talk about it later. There is no rush.
"Moving on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year? Okay, I'll come over to help then."
Zhou Qinglan thought for a while and said nothing more. She just said that she would come to help him when the time came.
The two of them had a lively chat, but they left Sheng Xiping aside and no one paid attention to her.
Sheng Xiping was not upset, he just got dressed and went out to chop firewood and tidy up the yard.
In the room, Zhang Shuzhen chatted with Zhou Qinglan for a while, and it was getting late.
So I found the board and put it on the kang. One of them kneaded the dough and rolled the dough, and the other made a bag. They just chatted and worked at the same time.
They say they are steamed dumplings, but they are actually similar to vegetable buns.
There is more white flour and less cornstarch flour. Boil the dough with hot water and knead it into a ball. Then roll it into a ball, wrap it with stuffing, and steam it in a pot.
Mainly because Sheng Xiping and the others came back a little late and couldn't make the dough, so they boiled the bread and steamed the dumplings.
The steamed dumplings are stuffed with roe deer meat and radish.
Roe deer meat is relatively thin and dry, so when Zhang Shuzhen was preparing the stuffing, she put a lot of oil in it and scooped some bone-rich soup into it.
The stuffing prepared in this way is oily and watery, which makes it delicious.
The couple had just wrapped a curtain when Sheng Yunfang, Sheng Yunfei, and Sheng Xita came back from school carrying their schoolbags.
As soon as the three of them entered the door, they smelled the aroma of stewed meat in the pot, and Sheng Xitai's eyes immediately widened.
"Mom, what's in the pot? It smells so good? Are you stewing meat again?"
While he was talking, this kid jumped into the east room carrying his schoolbag.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw a panel placed on the kang, and vegetable dumplings that were two sizes larger than ordinary dumplings were placed on the bed.
"Wow, I'm eating steamed buns today."
"Did you just see the buns? Why didn't you see your sister Zhou? You didn't know how to say hello when you saw someone, all you wanted to do was eat."
Zhang Shuzhen couldn't help but glare at her youngest son, "What can I do about this kid?"
Only then did Sheng Xitai see Zhou Qinglan and immediately felt embarrassed.
"Hello Sister Zhou, I was too happy just now and didn't pay attention."
Just now I was only thinking about food and didn't look anywhere else.
"School is over? Then hurry up and do your homework. You'll have lunch just in time to finish your homework."
Zhou Qinglan naturally wouldn't argue with a child, she just smiled at Sheng Xitai and continued to roll out the dough with her head down.
At this time, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei also entered the room.
When they saw Zhou Qinglan, the two girls were so happy that they ran over and hugged Zhou Qinglan.
"Sister Qinglan, you haven't come to our house for dinner in several days. We all miss you."
"That's right, Sister Qinglan, if you don't come here for a while, I won't be able to write essays.
The teacher praised the composition you taught us before and said it was very good.
Sister Qinglan is still amazing. I used to write essays and was criticized by teachers all day long."
These two girls are not as stupid as Sheng Xitai, they only know how to eat.
Both girls have clever mouths, and they always say nice words, which makes Zhou Qinglan so excited that she smiles from ear to ear.
"Okay, okay. If I have nothing to do from now on, I will come here often and watch you do your homework."
The children of the Sheng family are all serious about their studies, and Zhou Qinglan is also willing to give them advice on homework problems.
Regardless of the noisy talk outside about the uselessness of studying, in Zhou Qinglan's heart, there is still a big gap between those who are educated and those who are not.
Whenever possible, you should read more.
"Mom, Sister Qinglan, let's go wash our hands and come back to help pack them."
The two girls had something interesting in their eyes. When they saw that their mother and future sister-in-law were busy, they were too embarrassed to wait to eat, so they hurriedly washed their hands and came back to help make dumplings.
The steamed dumplings themselves were quite large, and with the help of two more girls, it didn't take long to wrap them up again.
So Zhang Shuzhen went to light the fire and steam a pot first, while Zhou Qinglan led the two girls to continue making bags.
At half past five, the first pot of steamed dumplings came out of the pot, and the rest were wrapped and put into the pot.
It just so happened that Sheng Liancheng, Sheng Xi'an, and Sheng Xikang also came back one after another.
So we cleaned up the panels, put them on the table, and the family sat down to eat together.
"By the way, boss, what are you going to do with the pine nuts at home?
The people at our forest farm purchase station said that we will purchase a large amount of pine nuts this year, otherwise you can just sell them when you have time.
It saves money when you buy it, and it saves you trouble when moving.”
While eating, Sheng Liancheng suddenly remembered this matter and discussed it with Sheng Xiping.
"Dad, don't worry yet. If I have a chance another day, I want to transport the pine nuts and sell them.
The purchasing station on the other side of the Sentai Railway collects 350 pounds of pine nuts.
Ours is about 500 kilograms, and the difference is five cents per kilogram, which is a difference of about twenty yuan."
Sheng Xiping shook his head. He had discussed this matter with Wang Jianshe and planned to find an opportunity in a few days to transport the pine nuts to the Songjiang River by small train.
You know, this year's pine nut harvest was small, and Sheng Xiping and the others shot a lot of pine cones, which weighed two to three thousand kilograms in total.
With so many pine nuts, forest farm purchasing stations may not have the ability to collect them all at once. If they fail, they will have to lower the price or use credit.
There are several purchasing stations in Songjiang River. These pine nuts can be sold wherever they are shipped.
Not to mention that the price at the purchase station below is higher, even if it is the same, it is safest to get it in cash.
"That's not right, boss, you go to Songjiang River to sell pine nuts, and you have to stay there for three days, including food and accommodation. It's not cost-effective."
Sheng Liancheng did the math and shook his head, feeling that this was unreasonable.
"Dad, it's okay. Actually, we just need to stay for one night.
The next day we took a bus to Ma'anshan, got off halfway, walked through the woods and came back." As long as you are willing to use your brain, there will always be a way.
Sheng Liancheng thought about it and realized what his son said made sense.
Who gives me 20 yuan? You all earn it with your own efforts, so why should you earn 20 yuan less?
"Yeah, that's fine. The small repair shop may have to go out to transport machines or something on an uncertain day recently.
When the time comes, tell the venue that you guys can take a ride and pay some shipping fee, that's all."
Qianchuan Forest Farm is too far away from Songjiang River, so it is inconvenient to go there to do errands.
Many times, forestry farm employees just follow the farm and take a ride or something like that, and everyone just doesn't feel weird about it, so that's it.
"Okay, you two, stop nagging about that and eat quickly.
The steamed dumplings served tonight are delicious, Qinglan, please eat more."
Zhang Shuzhen never cared about how the men earned money, she was only responsible for managing the family expenses.
So at this moment, Zhang Shuzhen quickly called Zhou Qinglan to eat more.
