Chapter two hundred and twentieth five catties of courage
"Grandma, please stop beating around the bush and come and take care of this?"
"My bag is quite big."
"It's okay, there are some stupid people out there." Zhou Zhi continued to pat the cake in his hand, walked towards his grandmother, and handed his elbow to her: "Anyway, I have enough stuffing, so I'll take care of the head in front of Tian."
Grandma had actually wanted to do it for a long time. She held Zhou Zhi's arm, and the mother-in-law and grandson moved little by little towards the small square table next to the kitchen: "You said there are stupid people who suffer from bloating, aren't you talking about me?"
"Then lend me another five pounds of courage and see if I dare to give it a try." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I mean Yan Xiao and Zhao Zhonggang, you don't know how much they eat now."
"They are also trying hard to stop eating."
"Well, there's nothing wrong with working hard." Zhou Zhi said: "It might be even harder than the original hard work, but the state only gives them enough meat to feed them, and they also pay subsidies."
"Then you can't complain." Grandma said, "It's better to be so hungry that you have edema and have to pay work points the next day."
"Yes, yes..." Zhou Zhi quickly interrupted, fearing that grandma would think of grandpa's sadness: "We won't go through the old almanac, and Xue Shan should probably be here soon."
"Xueshan is really capable." Among all the female classmates, including Zhang Xinyi, grandma did not comment on it. Only Feng Xueshan was the real favorite of grandma: "Beautiful, generous, capable, really kind to people,
I can’t find it even with a lantern.”
"The last sentence is not talking about friends anymore." Zhou Zhi continued with a playful smile: "Grandma, some things are not like cooking, the eggplant is served with bitter clams, the second knife is served with garlic sprouts, it is not just about teasing them together.
.”
"You just think that without that pinch of salt, without that pinch of salt, magnolia slices and sea cucumbers can't be cooked. With that pinch of salt, cowpeas and potatoes can be eaten boiled in plain water. Grandma, do you think this is true?"
"Between me and Xueshan, it's just the pinch of salt that's missing, so we can't make it. You old man, just don't worry."
"Don't worry? I don't have a stick at hand, otherwise I would let you know what a scream is."
"Hahahaha, my parents gave me a death order. You are not allowed to have these thoughts before you go to college. Grandma, you can't let me break the family discipline..."
"Discipline also depends on the situation." Grandma had washed her hands and wrapped up the pig cakes. As expected, it was twice as big as Zhou Zhi's: "For example, when the uprising failed, we would run when we should and hide when we should.
.”
"Yes." Zhou Zhi thought of the information he had recently compiled from the county annals and couldn't help but feel a little scared: "In Daqing Township after the failure of the uprising, more than 70 households around Shiding Mountain were counterattacked by the enemy. Is our family okay?
"
"Hua Xuan'er was still a review committee member of the Manzhou Party Department of the national government at that time. She said hello and no one from the Su family was touched." Grandma said: "But it was really frightening during that time. I remember being killed more than a dozen times...
…”
"Seventeen, seventeen guerrillas, and about ten people who support the revolution."
"Yes, there are still some who ran away and were never heard from again." Grandma patted the pig cake in her hand: "So now, having such a big meat-core baby cake in your hand is like a blessing in a jar.
.”
Zhou Zhi, who had been struck by a rather serious topic just now, was amused by his grandmother again in the blink of an eye: "Indeed, what grandma said is true."
"Elbow, open the door." Feng Xueshan poked her head out from the balcony door: "Hey, you and grandma have already started?"
"My good girl came so early?" Grandma said with a smile, "It must be because of the elbow, right? Let's ignore him. Today you will sit next to grandma and accompany her in the dragon gate formation."
Zhou Zhi went over and opened the door: "But I'm partial to you. I've been talking about it twice this morning."
Feng Xueshan gave Zhou Zhi an elbow: "Grandma, you're welcome, but I don't dare to sit here and eat for nothing. I'll be rejected by you just like this."
"He dares!" Grandma now picked up a wisecrack: "Grandma is here, lend him five more pounds of courage."
"Ha?!" Feng Xueshan was happy: "Then I feel really at ease. Grandma, you are such a big pig."
"Give it to Salt Mouse and Zhong Gang." The older you get, the smaller you get. Grandma likes soft foods like glutinous rice cakes the most. Now she took the opportunity to complain: "I'm just enjoying it, and they won't let me go."
I eat such a big one."
"Old man, you have to be fair." Zhou Zhi didn't expect that his grandmother would sue Feng Xueshan in front of him: "I won't let you eat such a big meal. It's easy to control the amount of small ones. If you add them up, they won't be bigger than this one, right?"
?”
"Then just one big one and a small one. Wouldn't that solve the problem?" Feng Xueshan glared at Zhou Zhi: "What a simple thing?"
"But the steaming time is different for different sizes..." Zhou Zhi wanted to tell the difference, but Feng Xueshan glared back again: "Okay, okay, let's steam a big one, okay? But let's make a deal first, grandma
You can only eat one, just enjoy it. You just said it yourself, the big one is for the weak."
After saying that, he stood up and said, "Come here, Xueshan, I'll steam a steamer."
Yang He got up very appropriately. As soon as Feng Xueshan arrived, he got up and came out to say hello to everyone: "Hello, grandma, hello, sister Shan."
"Monk, be good."
Why is there an accent?
Feng Xueshan wrapped the pig cake quickly: "Monk, be good, brush your teeth and wash your face quickly, and then go downstairs to boil the water."
"There are a lot of things going on this morning. I have to see off Zhong Gang and Yan Xiao soon, and I also have to set up a scene for Sister Xiaojuan. I have to hurry up."
"Okay." Yang He nodded: "Why don't I go down and wash up."
"Shout when the water boils." Zhou Zhi added.
Soon the friends came over, including Yan Xiao, Zhao Zhonggang, Fang Wenyu, Xiong Jiao, and He Shiqing.
The three boys, including Zhou Zhi, all have morning exercises when they have nothing to do.
The three of them basically circled the city once, and then went to the Hongshui River Bridge and ran back and forth. The circle was a bit worse, and they started directly from home and ran one-sixth of the way around the city to the bridge.
Xiong Jiao and He Shiqing's homes are not far from the bridge, and sometimes they will join the exercise team.
After a while, Wei Fei, Zhang Lu, Zhang Xinyi, and Jiang Shuyi also arrived.
It's not easy for Wei Fei to come so early. If it weren't for the delicious temptation, he probably wouldn't want to get up at all.
Jiachuan people like to eat early tofu pudding. Dou pudding shops open very early. Correspondingly, soy milk shops open earlier.
Pig cakes with sugared soybean milk are a standard part of Jiachuan cuisine. It is not cost-effective to sell sugared soybean milk directly, so Zhou Zhi soaks the beans himself, makes the soymilk, boils it and filters it.
The filtered soy milk is boiled three times and it is ready. It is ready to be eaten when everyone has arrived.
After a while, Feng Xueshan also came down, bringing with her a large steamer of pig cake.
Zhou Zhi asked: "Has grandma started eating?"
"It's time to eat. I left a big one for her and brought the rest down, in case she couldn't bear it after seeing it."
Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "You are still awesome."
Feng Xueshan took out two lunch boxes and picked up pig cakes inside: "Salt Rat and Zhong Gang will take two boxes to eat on the road. They won't keep cold in their bags, so there is no need to waste food money on the way."
Yan Xiao sighed with emotion: "This means that poetry has arrived first, otherwise I would have left myself to Xueshan."
