White rice, bone soup, a plate of cold wild vegetables, a plate of fried mushrooms, and a small plate of scrambled eggs.
There was also a bowl that was covered by a plate, so you couldn't tell what it contained.
Four dishes and one soup, this is too rich.
"Come on, come on, Yue'er, sit down quickly." Mother Luo moved the table and invited Shen Yue to come and eat.
"Mom, is today a special day?" Why did she prepare such a sumptuous dinner in such a short time when she went up the mountain?
"Sit down first," Luo Mu urged.
Shen Yue stopped asking questions and the three of them sat down.
Luo Mu took out a pot of specially boiled sugar water, poured a full cup for Shen Yue, and pushed the mysterious small bowl in front of her.
Shen Yue was full of curiosity, what was in it? She seemed to be the only one who had it.
I was thinking this, so I said, "Mom, what is this? I'm the only one who owns it?"
Luo Mu covered her mouth and smiled.
Luo Qingjiu said at the right time, "I forgot about such an important day. Please open it first and take a look."
After hearing what Luo Qingjiu said, Shen Yue became more and more curious. Why is this so important?
Gently uncovering the small plate that was fastened to the small bowl to keep it warm, a bowl of fragrant broth noodles came into view, with a golden fried egg nestled quietly in the center of the noodles.
"Yue'er, happy birthday!"
"Happy birthday, madam!"
Two voices came out in unison when Shen Yue opened the plate.
"Today is my birthday?"
What day is it today? She doesn’t know!
"You kid, you have been so busy these days that you have forgotten your birthday. Today is September 19th." Mother Luo scolded her for being so busy that she forgot the date.
September 19th!
She also had a birthday on September 19th, but her father never remembered it since she was a child, and she never had a birthday until she became an adult.
She always remembers...
"Thank you, mother, thank you, husband." Thank you for remembering me.
Shen Yue held the hot noodle bowl, and under the gaze of the two of them, she sucked the long noodles into her mouth and swallowed them.
Longevity noodles cannot be cut off.
"The noodles cooked by my mother are delicious, the best I have ever tasted!" Shen Yue gave her the highest praise, rubbed her eyes, and drank every sip of the noodle soup in the small bowl.
The noodles were a little hot, and the hot steam made her eyes blurry.
She was definitely not crying!
Shen Yue's eyes were red, and her cute and innocent look came into Luo Qingjiu's eyes.
Luo Qingjiu's eyes darkened slightly, his little wife seemed very satisfied, she was so moved by a bowl of longevity noodles.
Also, after Mother Shen left, no one in the Shen family would remember her birthday anymore...
So--
I will be with you on every birthday from now on.
After Shen Yue finished drinking the noodle soup, Luo Qingjiu handed her the handkerchief naturally, wanting to tease her, "Why are you drinking in such a hurry? I won't compete with you."
Shen Yue's face turned red. She seemed to have eaten very quickly just now.
"If you dare to snatch it, your legs will be broken." Luo's mother glared at her son.
Luo Qingjiu:......
He was just joking, how could he steal his wife's food?
"Mom, I don't have one, I was just joking with A Yue..." Luo Qingjiu explained hurriedly.
Luo Mu rolled her eyes at him, a man didn't know how to give in to a girl.
How can this be such a joke? Yue'er is so embarrassed.
"Come on, Yue'er, eat more. You eat the meat, and Xiaojiu drinks the soup." Luo's mother couldn't help but give Shen Yue a big stick bone.
As for her son, Luo Mu filled a bowl of stick bone soup and placed it in front of him, "Eat quickly! After you finish, go and warm up the book."
Luo Qingjiu:......
Is he really his biological child?
Luo Qingjiu angrily picked up the bone soup in front of her and drank it, waiting for him to put down the bowl.
Two small bowls of peeled chicken bones were pushed in front of him. The red chicken meat and shiny bone marrow filled the small bowls.
Luo Mu and Shen Yue looked at each other and smiled.
Yes! The two of them thought of being together again.
All three of us were extremely satisfied with this meal.
Luo Qingjiu was in particularly good condition today and had been sitting for half an hour.
In fact, after finishing his meal, he wanted to sit down for a while, but Shen Yue threatened him.
"Ms. sir, I've only had it for a few days, and you've only been sitting up for so long."
"Sir, if you sit here for a long time, your bones will become crooked."
"Mr. Sir, don't you feel your waist is numb and numb? If you sit for a long time, your heart meridians may be blocked..."
Every time Shen Yue said something, he felt uncomfortable in his waist.
Finally, he lay down obediently and waited for today's treatment.
Shen Yue heated up the medicine and gave it to Luo Qingjiu after a set of acupuncture plasters was completed.
"Master, please read your book carefully, and I will prepare the things you will need tomorrow."
Shen Yue lit the small oil lamp, gave Luo Qingjiu a poetry book, and went to the kitchen to get busy.
Luo's mother had been waiting for her in the kitchen for a long time.
Originally, it was Yue'er's birthday today, and I wanted her to rest for a day on the way back, but she couldn't bear her insistence, so Luo's mother thought she could come over and do something to help.
In addition to stir-fried mushrooms, Shen Yue also wants to make some green dumplings.
She asked about the price of duck eggs and found that they cost ten cents each. Making salted duck eggs was also very time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Therefore, the classic green dumplings stuffed with meat floss and duck eggs were not within her scope of consideration.
Shen Yue rummaged through the sesame seeds and purple sweet potatoes purchased during the day and prepared to make some sesame and purple sweet potato fillings.
Shen Yue first blanched the mugwort with a small amount of salt in water to remove the astringency, then crushed it with a stone mortar, poured it into a basin filled with glutinous rice flour, and mixed and kneaded it evenly.
Luo Mu helped light the fire, and Shen Yue put the kneaded mugwort dough and peeled purple potatoes in to steam.
Start preparing the sesame filling. Fry the sesame seeds and scoop them out. Add some sugar and crush them in a stone mortar. When done, set them aside for later use.
Steamed purple sweet potatoes are also mashed with sugar.
The dough was left to cool slightly on the board. Luo Mu pulled the dough into small balls one by one. Shen Yue took over and wrapped the fillings, formed them into small round balls, and put them into the pot.
The round little dumplings were piled up in a pot, fifteen with purple sweet potato filling and fifteen with sesame filling.
Turn on the fire and start steaming vigorously!
After a quarter of an hour, turn off the heat and remove the lid. The original light green green dough turns into a darker green, and the fragrant and rich aroma of mugwort comes to your nostrils.
