◎Buy a house again◎
I made millet porridge and egg pancakes at noon. I added a lot of chopped green onions to the batter and fried cabbage.
After eating and resting for a while, the two of them got up and prepared to make dumplings.
I missed a handful of leeks in the morning. During the break, my uncle Xie came back and gave me a handful of green vegetables. Unfortunately, I didn't have mushrooms at home, otherwise I could have made dumplings with three fillings.
Gu Guanning was not very skilled at cleaning the leeks and had to peel them off one by one. She turned her head to look at Cheng Yanzhou who was cutting melons and stuffing on the balcony, "Why are there so many fresh vegetables today?"
"It will be the winter solstice in a while, too. We can't all eat cabbage and radish."
Cheng Yanzhou mixed the stuffing neatly and went into the house to choose leeks with Gu Guanning. "My salary will be paid at the beginning of next month. On the winter solstice, I will buy a piece of meat and dumplings filled with radish, vermicelli and meat residue. Do you want to eat it steamed or boiled?"
"Half steamed and half boiled, the dumpling soup is delicious. "
Gu Guanning raised his hand to rub the hair beside his ear, "After cooking the dumplings, put some vermicelli in the soup and add two cabbage leaves to make it taste better."
Cheng Yanzhou put a handkerchief on her head and helped her cut her hair behind her ears. "There are fried chili peppers in the cupboard. How about making them into hot and sour noodles? When cooking the pork dregs, you can fry some peanuts and soybeans. You can also mix fried peanuts with brown sugar. A stuffing."
Gu Guanning nodded like he was pounding garlic.
Both have vegetarian fillings, and the preparation is very simple. It doesn't take long to start making the dough and rolling out the dough to make the dumplings. By the time the dumplings were served, it was still dark.
Along with the dumplings, there is a large bowl of pumpkin and meatballs. The steamed pumpkin is drizzled with two drops of sesame oil, making it soft and sweet.
While waiting for the pot to be served, Gu Guanning was bored and pulled out a cardboard box from under the bed.
Cheng Yanzhou entered the house from the balcony. Gu Guanning turned his head and looked over, "I plan to knit wool. What do you want, socks, hat, scarf?"
"Socks."
The socks are small, so it shouldn't be difficult.
Gu Guanning smiled and said, "Change one."
Choosing one of the three, socks didn't work, so Cheng Yanzhou postponed it to a hat, "What hat?"
Gu Guanning said nothing and looked at him blinking.
Cheng Yanzhou understood and immediately changed his mind: "I think I am missing a scarf."
Hearing this, Gu Guanning went to sort out the wool happily and said with great interest: "When I learn to knit a scarf, I will knit you a pair of gloves and it will be your birthday gift next year."
Cheng Yanzhou: "..." You don't know how to co-write.
He didn't dare to say this out loud, so he could only silently drink water from the enamel jar.
Gu Guanning originally bought this box to kill time in the car. He also learned several stitches from his cousin, but he had never tried to knit a complete piece.
There are four kinds of wool: red, black, gray and green. The bright red is festive and the emerald green is bright. It is perfect for knitting edges when taking it back to Nanhe County for the New Year.
