"Dundun, you are so heavy!"
It snowed all night, the sky and the earth were completely white, and the entire scenic spot became covered in silver, which was very beautiful.
On the mountain road leading to Longshou Peak, Lin Xu and Shen Jiayue were wearing non-slip hiking boots and were slowly climbing up on the snow on the steps.
Lin Xu was carrying the offerings, incense, ingots, etc. that grandma asked her to bring, while Shen Jiayue was carrying Dundun in a cat bag, who insisted on following her.
The little guy hid in the warm cat bag and quietly looked at the scenery outside.
Occasionally, a little squirrel leaps by, scratching around impatiently in the bag, as if it is about to hunt.
It stands to reason that it is not suitable to climb mountains after snowing, as accidents are prone to occur.
However, Longshou Peak is not high, and there are handrails and guardrails on both sides of the steps, so as long as you walk normally, you will be fine.
And coming up to burn incense is the old man’s wish. It’s just a climb during the Chinese New Year. It’s time to exercise and digest last night’s fried dumplings.
Halfway up the mountain, a family of three rested for a while in a small pavilion with a view.
Lin Xu ate two pieces of chocolate, Shen Jiayue drank sugar water from a thermos cup, and Dundun ate a freeze-dried quail in the cat bag.
After nibbling, the little guy licked his paws happily, squatted in the cat bag with a small blanket, and admired the snowy scene outside.
Rest for a while and continue climbing.
Finally reached the top of the mountain at eight in the morning.
The sun has risen by now, and the blue sky and the snow covering the mountains in the distance make people feel relaxed and happy unconsciously.
"So beautiful!"
Shen Jiayue roared, and then brought Dundun to Panshiyan.
As the number of tourists increases, the chains of Panshiyan are covered with various cute concentric locks, but there are two that stand out.
One is the big brass lock that Shen Jiayue hung up at that time, and the other is the big brass lock that Shen Guofu hung up. The two big locks made the chain fall straight.
Lin Xu came to the door of the small temple and took out a key from the gap in the threshold.
Open the door and go in, place the offerings in the backpack on the offering table, and then, together with Shen Jiayue, follow Mrs. Lin's instructions, kneel down in front of the mountain god statue, burn incense and pray.
"I hope the mountain god can protect the prosperous business of my family's scenic spot and bless the whole family's good health..."
When Shen Jiayue prayed in a low voice, a round head suddenly appeared on the mountain god's shoulder. Dundun, who was released from the cat bag, climbed up at some point and shouted excitedly to Lin Xu and Shen Jiayue: <
/p>
"Meow~~~~~"
Lin Xu inserted the incense candle into the incense burner, and waved to the little guy without laughing or crying:
"Come down, come down, you are such a naughty kid."
Dundun wandered around on the mountain god statue for a while, then jumped down and jumped into Lin Xu's arms.
Shen Jiayue on the side asked:
"If gods appear, will they be angry with us?"
Lin Xu smiled:
"What's there to be angry about? Children's words are unbridled. Besides, if you believe this kind of thing, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you won't. Let's go down after the incense is burned. I haven't had breakfast, so I'm hungry now."
You cannot eat while burning incense on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, otherwise you will not be sincere.
At this moment, Lin Xu looked at the roasted chicken, elbows, meat cubes, apples, bananas and other tributes on the table, and planned to tear off a chicken leg and put it on the bed after the incense was burned.
Although chocolate can provide the calories needed for mountain climbing, it does not make you feel full.
If you want to eliminate the hunger in your stomach, you have to eat chicken legs.
Shen Jiayue pointed to the merit box in front of the statue and asked:
"Did anyone really put money in it?"
"Yes, my cousin works as a Taoist priest here. The most common thing he encountered was that twenty thousand yuan was stuffed into the box. He also complained that the opening of the merit box was too small to stuff the whole wad of money. Later, it was changed to a big box."
p>
"What should I do with the money inside? Is it left to rot?"
"That's not the case. I will take it out regularly to buy some rice, flour, grain, oil, clothing, bedding and the like for the lonely elderly people in nearby villages. I don't have much money, and I can't buy anything too expensive. I can only express my feelings."
When Shen Jiayue heard this, she immediately took out her bag and stuffed all the cash inside.
"Since you do good things for others, then I should also contribute."
There was wind on the mountain, which caused the incense candles to burn quickly. It didn't take long for the incense to burn to the end.
This also means that the gods have finished enjoying the tribute and can handle it on their own.
Lin Xu received the tribute into his bag, then put it in a plastic bag, pulled off the drumsticks of the roasted chicken, and handed it to Shen Jiayue:
"Would you like some?"
"Isn't it good to eat like this?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. It's already been provided. If you don't eat it, it's free."
The young couple ate most of the roasted chicken in the temple, threw the bones in the woods behind the small temple, and finally completed the task assigned by grandma and went down the mountain.
At this time, the mountain road leading to the back mountain has been built. At the other end of Panshiyan, you can see the steps going down the mountain.
However, I am anxious to go down for breakfast now, and since the mountains are full of snow and the mountain roads are slippery, it is better not to take the risk.
It’s not too late to go back and wait for the weather to clear and snow to melt.
Anyway, I just ate, slept, and played these past few days, and I was completely relaxed.
Lin Xu and Shen Jiayue returned the same way and came to the Cliff Hotel. They stamped their feet to shake the snow off the soles of their shoes, then opened the car door and drove to the restaurant at the foot of the mountain.
Because the mountain road faces the north and is in the wind, there is no snow, which is why Lin Xu dares to drive.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, seeing the snow-capped scenic spot and the rippling blue waves of the reservoir not far away, Shen Jiayue looked at it and couldn't help but say:
"It's such a nice day today. I'm going to play badminton with Sister Yuanyuan later to save me from having to eat at noon...Xubao, do you want to play?"
Lin Xu looked at the white snow around him:
"Let's call it later. Let's drive and shoot a short video later to show the surging power of Maxari in the snow-covered grass. By the way, we can also warm up the publicity for the scenic spot and racecourse."
The main project of the racecourse has been completed, leaving only the detailed decoration and surrounding environment maintenance.
Take advantage of this time to warm up the Internet and promote it later, and netizens' acceptance will be greatly improved.
As long as everyone participates in the discussion, the top ten hot searches will be on the list.
"I have to work on the first day of the new year. Xu Baoqian is really dedicated."
Shen Jiayue muttered and then said:
"Then you have to charge the drone later, and put a warm piece on the battery to prevent the cold weather from freezing the battery..."
Arriving at the restaurant, Lin Xu took his backpack to the kitchen, put back the used offerings, and then started eating.
The meal on the morning of the first day of junior high school is very simple, just boiled dumplings.
The first meal of the new year is the best meal, and the best meal in the north is dumplings.
Whether it’s a festival or a happy event at home, a meal of dumplings is indispensable.
Fastidious people recommend not eating from time to time, and there are specific delicacies for each solar term.
But for most people in the north, they basically cook dumplings without deciding on domestic affairs, and make dumplings on foreign affairs.
There is nothing that a meal of dumplings cannot solve. If there is, then have another meal.
"Are you tired of climbing? Wash your hands and eat quickly. Just now your grandma said that if she had known, she wouldn't have let you two go climbing. There is so much snow, what if you slip and fall?"
Chen Meijuan turns on the stove and prepares to cook dumplings.
There are side dishes to go with dumplings on the workbench, including Laba garlic that is as green as emeralds, pickled cucumbers that are red and crispy, and cold dishes such as shredded ears left over from last night.
Well, starting from today, I have to start eating the leftovers from the New Year’s Eve.
Many people on the Internet are joking that we rush home on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and before we get over the fatigue of the journey, it’s New Year’s Eve and it’s time to get busy with the New Year’s Eve dinner.
On New Year's Eve, I prepared a large table of dishes and ate them from the first to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. I finally finished the leftovers and it was time to go back to work.
So I grabbed a train ticket and traveled all the way back to my hometown, just to eat the leftovers from New Year’s Eve.
Lin Xu's family didn't have much leftovers. Because there were so many people yesterday, the portions of the dishes were small. They could be eaten in two meals at most, not enough for the fourth and fifth days of the Lunar New Year.
Chen Meijuan cooked dumplings for her son and daughter-in-law. She also boiled a few eggs, peeled off the egg yolks and crushed them for Dundun to eat.
On the first day of the new year, the kitten also needs to eat something delicious.
When Shen Jiayue was eating dumplings, Chen Meijuan handed them two red envelopes:
"This is the New Year's money for you, keep it."
"Thank you, Mom, and I wish you a Happy New Year!"
Not only did the young couple get lucky money, Dundun also received one.
Not long after, after finishing the dumplings, we came to the restaurant where everyone was warming up and chatting. Then we entered the mode of collecting New Year's money, and both of them received a thick stack.
However, Dundun's lucky money was naturally taken away by Shen Jiayue in the name of "Mommy keeps it for you".
Lin Xu also gave New Year's money to his cousins. After all, they have started families and started businesses. Young people must be given financial encouragement and support.
Chen Shaokang pushed back the new year's money, and then secretly showed his WeChat payment code.
Obviously, collecting cash is just a pass, so he created such a countermeasure against parents keeping New Year's money.
At this moment, Chen Meide looked at Lin Xu and asked:
"Our family is going to visit relatives at noon. Do you have any ingredients you need to buy? If so, I will bring them back in the afternoon."
Don't tell me, it really does exist.
Lin Xu thought for a while and said:
"Buy two pig heads. I'll grill the whole pig head for you to try. You don't need to buy the others. There's so much meat, so I'll eat more in the next few days."
"Okay, I'll buy the pig head when I get back."
Not only Chen Meili is going to visit relatives, Chen Meiliang's family and Lin Hongjun's family are also planning to visit relatives, so that tomorrow they can eat grilled whole pig heads at home with their relatives.
They were busy visiting relatives, and Lin Xu and Shen Jiayue also drove to the vicinity of the racecourse.
The ground here is flat and covered with white snow, which looks very beautiful. Coupled with the sunny weather and the bright sun, this kind of day is most suitable for shooting some landscape films.
The young couple had a clear division of labor. Lin Xu was responsible for driving the car and driving along the established route, while Shen Jiayue stood in the distance and was responsible for following and filming with a drone.
Many action cameras were placed along the way to capture the moment when the car ran over the snow.
Not long after, everything was ready and shooting started.
Lin Xu drove the car, speeding on the snow-covered grassland. The dead grass was turned over by the wheels, bringing up a snowflake.
Then he passed through the middle of the racecourse, while Shen Jiayue controlled the drone to fly over the racecourse, then slowly landed, taking pictures of the car rushing out from the other end of the racecourse.
The drone is in a hovering state, and only the camera moves with the car.
As the car drove away on the white pasture, the camera slowly adjusted to take in the mountains in the distance and the sun above, using the entire wide angle to show the vastness of the pasture, the magnificence of the snow scene, and the first clear sky after the snow.
The ultimate sophistication.
In addition, the blue sky, surrounding mountains, etc. were also photographed by Shen Jiayue.
After the shooting, Lin Xu started editing the video, while Shen Jiayue took Chen Meijuan and Han Shuzhen to play badminton in the courtyard of the restaurant and discuss what to eat for lunch.
"Yueyue, what do you want to eat?"
Chen Meijuan is no stranger to badminton. When she was working at the Bureau of Human Resources and Social Security, she represented her company in badminton competitions held in the city. However, now she is busy with scenic spots and has not played a few games at all.
She dunked so hard that Shen Jiayue almost missed it.
"I can eat anything, but I don't really want to eat meat anymore. I want to eat something refreshing to change my taste. Do you have any good suggestions?"
When Chen Meijuan heard this, she immediately said:
"Why don't I make some cold noodles for lunch? Eat the hot cold noodles, heat up the leftovers, and steam some rice. You can't eat dumplings all the time. If you eat too many, you'll get injured."
Shen Jiayue fully agrees with this proposal:
"Okay, okay, I was just about to eat Liangpi'er, but what is hot Liangpi'er? Eat it hot?"
Chen Meijuan put down her racket and said:
"Yes, when the weather gets cold, eat it hot. Cut it into strips while it's still hot. Add the sauce, spicy oil and cucumber shreds, and then you can eat it."
Upon hearing this, not only Shen Jiayue wanted to eat it, but Han Shuzhen also wanted to try it:
"I haven't eaten like this before, are you bothering me, Meijuan?"
Chen Meijuan smiled and said:
"It used to be very troublesome. If you want to eat cold skin, you have to wash the gluten first. Now we have pure noodles, which can be directly mixed into a paste. Gluten is also simple. You can use gluten powder and make a dough and steam it... You two, you two are fighting
Come on, I'll go to the kitchen to prepare it. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so let's eat Liangpier."
With gluten powder and clear noodles, making cold skin becomes easy.
Chen Meijuan came to the kitchen, first poured half a basin of noodles into the basin, added a little salt, and then poured water to make a thinner batter.
When mixing, use chopsticks or a spoon to stir thoroughly to prevent dry powder on the bottom of the basin.
Mix well and set it aside to let the flour absorb as much water as possible, so that the cold skin will be delicious.
Then she changed a basin, added some gluten into it, and mixed it with water to make a slightly softer dough.
Gluten flour is the gluten structure in flour. Once mixed, it can be placed in a steaming cabinet for steaming. After steaming thoroughly, it will become cooked gluten that is very delicious whether it is cold, hot or stir-fried.
Taking advantage of this time, she took out the noodle gong used to make cold skin.
This is a disc-shaped kitchen utensil made of tinplate, with diameters ranging from large to small. The largest is more than one meter, and even the smallest ones are more than fifty centimeters.
The bottom of the noodle gong is flat and surrounded by a rim of five to six centimeters high.
When using it, first apply a layer of grease on the bottom, then scoop a spoonful of clear noodle juice into it, and shake it a few times with the noodle to spread the noodle juice evenly.
Then put it into a boiling pot, cover the pot, and cook the noodles in the water until it becomes transparent. In this way, a thin, chewy, elastic and refreshing cold skin is completed. While busy, Shen Jiayue walked into the kitchen with an action camera:
"Mom, can I film you making cold skin?"
Chen Meijuan smiled and said:
"Of course, you can take pictures as you like. Almost everyone can do this, and there is nothing good to take pictures of. After making the cold skin, I will make some dough later. The old lady likes softer dough. Our family makes it every time.
Separate the cold skin and make two kinds."
Shen Jiayue's eyes lit up, haha, with such a gourmet mother-in-law at the stall, why worry about not being able to learn good food?
In the yard, Shen Guofu was waving his racket and playing badminton with Han Shuzhen, while Lin Hongqi was busy getting charcoal blocks from the restaurant.
Now the charcoal stove in the restaurant is open and burning, and the demand for charcoal blocks is very high.
Fortunately, when winter came, Lin Hongqi used her connections to buy a truck of high-quality coal, and there was no shortage of charcoal blocks.
In the kitchen, Shen Jiayue set up the camera, suddenly jumped in front of it, and said with a smile:
"Happy New Year to everyone. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. My mother-in-law wants to make delicious food for me again. What she is going to make today is hot cold skin. Remember to deduct 1 for those who have eaten it and 2 for those who have not.
If you want to make it at home, follow my mother-in-law’s tutorial, it’s so simple!”
Shen Jiayue doesn't know whether it is simple or not.
Anyway, my mother-in-law is in charge today. She is only responsible for taking pictures and then waiting to eat.
Chen Meijuan washed the noodle gong and wiped it clean with kitchen paper, then poured some grease into the bowl, dipped a brush in it, and carefully brushed a layer of grease into the noodle gong.
While she was doing it, she talked about the precautions for making cold skin.
Also talked about the difference between Liangpi and Noodles.
Directly use low-gluten flour to mix the dough, and the dough will be made. Wash the dough in water to remove the gluten, and use the washed noodle soup as raw material to make cold skin.
After explaining this, Chen Meijuan began to cut and eat the ingredient of cold skin - cucumber shreds.
In fact, you can also use blanched mung bean sprouts, but you can’t buy them right now, so you can only use cucumbers instead.
After showing off the knife skills, start boiling water in a large pot.
He also used a large basin to collect most of the water and placed it on the workbench for later use.
Once the water is boiled, it's ready.
Chen Meijuan took a noodle gong, scooped a spoonful of noodle juice into it, turned it with the handles on both sides, then put it into the boiling pot, covered the pot lid, and started to prepare the next one.
After more than a minute, I opened the lid of the pot and found that the white pasta sauce in the noodles had solidified into a transparent state, and even the patterns on the iron sheet could be seen clearly.
Chen Meijuan took it out and put it into a basin of cold water, then put another noodle into the pot and closed the lid.
Then she turned around without stopping, dipped a brush in oil, and evenly applied it to the prepared cold skin. After applying the oil, the cold skin that had cooled down slightly was taken out of the gong.
When taking it out, first use your fingers to run around along the edge of the cold skin to open it, then lift the edge and fold it toward the middle, then fold it from the other side, and a piece of cold skin will be easily lifted out.
Place the cold skin on the tray, pick up a brush and brush a layer of grease on the empty noodle dough, then scoop in the dough and turn it around to make the dough flow evenly.
Open the lid and the cold skin in the pot is ready.
The whole process was completed in one go, without any delays.
Shen Jiayue was full of surprise and felt it was so novel. While Chen Meijuan was busy, she secretly tore off a piece of cold skin, dipped it in the chili oil on the side and put it in her mouth. Her eyes suddenly turned into crescents.
"Wow, it's delicious. I didn't expect the cold skin to be so delicious when eaten hot."
Chen Meijuan smiled and said:
"When the gluten is steamed, I'll roll it up for you the same way you do on the street. As long as you like it, you can make it every day."
"Thank you, Mom. I am so lucky to have a mother-in-law like you."
After saying that, the girl tore off another piece of cold skin and continued to eat it with spicy oil.
By the time Chen Meijuan took the new cold skin out of the noodles, she had already eaten most of it.
After pausing the filming, Shen Jiayue felt that eating like this was not enough, so she planned to use her mobile phone to shoot a short video of eating cold skin and send it to Chen Yan in Beijing.
After all, we are cousins whose blood is thicker than water. We have delicious food, so naturally we can’t forget it.
Soon, Chen Yan, who was nestling on the sofa and watching videos of foreign netizens setting off fireworks with an envious look on her face, received a short video from Shen Jiayue.
"Yanbao, have you eaten? My mother-in-law is making cold noodles. The newly made hot cold noodles are dipped in chili oil. Look at the color. Isn't it very tempting? Haha, let me try it for you first. Wow...
…”
Watching the video of her cousin eating cold skin dipped in chili oil in an exaggerated manner, Chen Yan couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and she replied sourly:
"If you eat cold skin on New Year's Day, be careful of diarrhea."
After saying that, I started searching to see which Liangpi shop is still open in Beijing today.
I can't help it, I'm really hungry...
