Farming Space Makes Me Rich

After New Year's Eve, it's New Year's Eve!

The children got a lot of big red envelopes. Every adult in the family gave them a red envelope. Then, when the villagers saw them, they would also give them a red envelope. No matter how much the red envelope was, it was a piece of it. Mind.

Xiao Letong, Xiao Ling and Rouroululu, the fourth generation of the Xiao family, were almost buried by the Red Packet Mountain.

Xiao Letong opened the red envelopes, and said happily, "Wow, the New Year's money received this year has reached 100,000. Haha, the red envelopes received this year are the most and the largest."

Several children received New Year's money, and the number was similar.

If it wasn't for Xiao Lingyu's determination not to allow everyone to send too large red envelopes, it is estimated that at this moment, the lucky money they received would not be in the hundreds of thousands, but in the millions.

Although the red envelope can't be too big, adults love Xiao Letong very much, and usually don't know how to express it. No, now it's expressed in the New Year's money.

Every single shot, they are thousands, thousands or more.

Even those villagers and other relatives and friends, the red envelopes for the New Year, are at least 300 or 500.

All these together add up to one hundred thousand, and they can't run at all.

Mr. Gong quietly came to Xiao Letong's room, "Tongtong, can I come in?"

"Okay, grandpa!" Xiao Letong ran over to open the door for the old man, "Grandpa, please come in!"

When Mr. Gong saw that the four children were in the small room, he took out four red envelopes, one for each.

Xiao Ling held the red envelope in his hand and asked in confusion, "Grandpa, haven't you given a red envelope?"

"Shh!" Mr. Gong put a finger on his lips to stop Jing Xiao Ling's words, and then said very cautiously, "This is an extra red envelope I gave you with Tongtong's mother, but don't let your parents know about it. ?"

The four children's eyes lit up, and they nodded immediately, "Well, we know!"

Grandpa Gong looked at the red envelopes on the bed, and he said with a smile, "Then you continue to count the red envelopes, and the great grandfather will leave."

Mr. Gong quietly left, and carefully closed the door.

As soon as he left, the children exclaimed happily, "Wow, we have another red envelope!"

Maybe every child is like this. When the Chinese New Year comes, they like to take the red envelope, open the red envelope, and look at the money in the red envelope, that is the happiest moment.

The four children immediately opened the red envelope, saw dozens of hundred-yen bills inside, and immediately poured them out and counted them.

"One, two... ten, one two... ten..."

A pile of ten, then a pile of 6, and some change.

Rou Rou said happily, "Ah, 6666! A lot of money!"

Over the years, they have also seen large amounts of cash, but this is the first time they have received such a large red envelope.

Lulu was actually very happy when she saw the money.

only……

Lulu asked a little worriedly, "Tongtong, my aunt said that we can't let adults give us such a big red envelope. But my grandfather is carrying such a big red envelope on his back, will he be unhappy when his aunt finds out. what."

Rourou's happy little face suddenly changed, she said very seriously, "Tongtong, great grandpa and the others have already wrapped red envelopes, and they are still carrying red envelopes from this aunt, this..."

Before Rourou's words were finished, another knock on the door came.

Xiao Ling ran over to open the door, and then saw Grandpa Xiao standing outside, and immediately called out with a little doubt on his face, "Grandpa!"

"Linger is good!" Grandpa Xiao stroked his hair lightly, then stuck his head in again and shouted, "Tongtong, Rourou, Lulu, can grandpa come in?"

"Of course!" The three children responded in unison.

Grandpa Xiao walked in, turned around and said to Xiao Ling, "Linger, come in, bring the door!" Hearing this tone, it was obviously a bit mysterious.

Xiao Ling was very obedient and closed the door.

Then, the four children saw Grandpa Xiao take out four red envelopes from his pocket.

They handed it to them one by one and said, "Come on, Grandpa will give you another red envelope, but don't let your mommy and your aunt find out, you know?"

"Well, we know. Thank you, Grandpa!" The four children took over the red envelope with happy expressions on their faces.

After Grandpa Xiao finished sending out the red envelopes, he saw that the bed was covered with red envelopes, and said, "Then you continue to count the red envelopes. Grandpa has something to do, so he will go out first."

After he left, the four children jumped up happily again, "Ah, another red envelope!"

It's just that before they have finished counting the red envelopes, the adults one after another came to knock on the door, and then secretly gave them red envelopes.

It wasn't until Xiao Lingye came to the children's room and was discovered by Xiao Lingyu. Then, he noticed that the children's beds were already piled up with red envelopes. There were a few red envelopes, and the number of drums was wrong. There must be something tricky.

But she didn't expose it immediately, which would make the children very unhappy.

Xiao Lingyu asked with a smile, "Tongtong, tell Mommy, besides accepting your uncle's red envelope, who else did you accept? Don't worry, mom won't take back your red envelope, mom just wants a number."

As soon as Xiao Letong heard it, he knew that these red envelopes might not be kept.

His mum won't take back these red envelopes, but she can't leave too much money for them. After all, they are still young and don't know how to control these lucky money.

Xiao Letong sighed softly, and then he picked out the thick red envelope from the pile of red envelopes, and said very honestly, "Uncle is the last one, unfortunately you found out and caught it. This is The red envelopes that everyone gives us, um, are all here!"

Speaking of little uncle, Xiao Lingyu glanced at Xiao Lingye with her eyes, slightly disagreeing with her younger brother's actions.

Xiao Lingye, who was caught, blushed and felt a little guilty.

He didn't think that everyone in the family had this thought, he thought he was the only one.

As a result, it was because of him that the truth was exposed.

Looking at these thick red envelopes, my sister will definitely take it away.

Let the little nephew lose a fortune, he is really sorry for a few nephews.

Seeing such an honest son, Xiao Lingyu raised her brows and asked with a smile, "So many red envelopes and such thick red envelopes, son, are you willing?"

Xiao Letong wiped his face, shook his head and said, "I'm not willing! But if you find out, I'm not willing to let it go!"

Xiao Lingyu sighed lightly and asked, "That son, do you feel wronged?"

Xiao Letong nodded honestly and said, "Well, I feel a little sad and reluctant to part with it."

After all, for adults, things that could have been obtained in the past, but no one will become sad and reluctant.

Of course, Xiao Lingyu's main purpose is not to receive their red envelopes, but to educate.

These red envelopes, to put it bluntly, are actually money.

But among these children, the eldest child is only eight or nine years old. He has no concept of money at all. He will definitely spend a lot of money on the money he controls now. In this way, they will develop the habit of being extravagant.

This is a very bad habit, and Xiao Lingyu is determined to stop it.

Of course, Xiao Lingyu mainly preached.

Xiao Lingyu sighed lightly and said, "Son, in fact, Mommy didn't want to take away all your lucky money. It's just that Mommy thinks that this money should be saved. When you grow up, you need to buy things when you go to school. Wouldn’t it be better to take it out at a later time? Look at the money you have now, so much money, where is it going?”

Xiao Letong's eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly, "Save it? Mommy, do you mean to save the money for us? Instead of just putting it away?"

Xiao Lingyu patted his head lightly, and said amusingly, "These New Year's money were given to you by your family, and are your personal property, Mom, but you don't have the right to confiscate your money?

It's just that you are still young, and the money is too much. Mommy is afraid that you will spend a lot of money, but you don't know where it will go. So, Mommy will temporarily find a place to store your money for you until you grow up. , Now that you have the ability, and come to control these properties that belong to you, Mommy will never have any opinion. "

After listening to Rourou Lulu, she immediately handed a few big red envelopes to Xiao Lingyu, and said very sensible, "Auntie, help us store the money!"

They are no longer the little girls who are greedy for a dime in their hands and want to buy candy.

They have been rich and raised for so many years, and they have no shortage of food, clothing, housing, and transportation. They also have beautiful clothes and delicious snacks. They have never been missed at home. Usually, they also have some pocket money on hand, so they can buy a lot of sugar to eat.

In fact, the two of them have no idea about the cash in their hands, they just know that there is a lot, and they can buy a lot of things, but they have no idea about how much to buy and how to spend it. Store your money.

At the back, Xiao Lingyu deposited the money in the bank in the name of the four children, and gave each of them a passbook, fixed deposit, partial deposits and withdrawals, and deposits once a year.

It was just the lucky money for the four children, but the amount was relatively large. The bank was very happy and sent a few small gifts.

The children played happily with these gifts.

Xiao Lingyu did not mention the matter of the New Year's red envelope.

But others also recognized their mistakes. Knowing that hurting children is not such a painful method, this New Year's money has been given too much, and the children have the vanity to compare. This has a special impact on a child's growth and heart.

In fact, when giving New Year's money for the New Year, the more money and the less money are all making fun. The children don't care about giving more and less, they only care about whether they are given or not.

After the new year, it is the new year.

According to the customs and traditions of Taoyuan Village, it is forbidden to visit relatives and friends on the first day of the new year.

On the second day of the new year, I started visiting relatives and friends.

On the first day of the new year, the Xiao family also did not visit relatives and friends. They just gathered together to chat, play cards and mahjong, or go to the village square to chat and play cards with the villagers.

The Xiao family, except for a few children who ran outside to play, didn't go out much. From the storage room, they moved the mahjong table to the yard.

In the yard, it suddenly became lively.

Gong Tianhao played mahjong with Grandpa Xiao, Grandpa Gong and Grandma Xiao.

No way, compared to playing cards, the three old people still prefer to play mahjong.

Father Xiao's four brothers got together to play cards, and Gong Tianhao naturally took on the task of accompanying the three old people.

At the end of the year, things are very busy. Usually, I don't have time to get some rural snacks.

Now that everyone was together, Xiao's mother soaked 30 catties of rice last night.

So much rice, what do you want to do?

Hehe, it is a traditional snack in Taoyuan Village, one is called rice cracker, and the other is called noodle. Both snacks will be stuffed.

Rice crackers and vermicelli are both made from rice milk and are traditional delicacies made from rice.

Soak the rice for a minimum of six hours, then pour it straight out.

The prepared grass and wood ash is generally used in rural areas to burn dry straw, orange branches, or tungsten shells and so on.

Then, find a piece of cloth, wrap the ash tightly, put it in a pot and boil it, take out the cloth bag, and filter the plant ash water again.

One pound of plant ash water and one pound of rice, plus green cabbage leaves or chives, are put together to make a green rice pulp.

However, there are still some differences between making rice crackers and making rice milk for vermicelli.

Before making rice crackers, the rice milk needs to be mixed with a little slaked lime. This is to increase the coagulation force of rice crackers, which is equivalent to using lime powder as a coagulant.

After making the rice milk, put it in a pot and cook it on a high heat at the beginning. When the rice milk is completely boiled, start to cook it on a low heat.

While cooking, use a shovel to stir constantly in the pot, keep stirring, if you don't stir, it will become crockpot.

While stirring, the rice milk will slowly start to solidify and cook.

Wait until it is cooked and then solidify into a ball that can be kneaded into a ball. When it is not too sticky, you can take it out of the pot and put it on the prepared table. The table must be smeared with cooking oil, otherwise it will stick to the pot.

The stirring process was too exhausting, so this task was left to the young and strong Xiao Lingye.

In the process of cooking rice milk, several women are preparing stuffing, including radish stuffing, eggplant stuffing, sauerkraut stuffing, raising meat stuffing, beef stuffing, and a kind of salted radish stuffing and fried pepper.

After the rice milk is cooked, it is called a dough. After the dough is kneaded evenly, knead a small ball, round it, and then use a tool to flatten it into a round skin, like a dumpling skin, but it should not be too thin, otherwise, it will revealing. Then, put the stuffing in, it can be wrapped into various shapes, it can be half-moon-shaped, bun-shaped, or triangular.

After wrapping the stuffing, put it in the steamer, boil the water, and then steam it for fifteen to twenty minutes on high heat, then it is ready to be eaten.

The rice crackers on the table are luscious green, hot and fragrant, which is very appealing to the appetite.

As for the practice of vermicelli, it is relatively simple compared to rice crackers.

To make vermicelli, you don't need to put lime powder, that is, after making the rice milk, use a large spoon like the one used in a cauldron in the countryside, and put one or two spoons on it and weave it into a circular shape without gaps with thin bamboo strips. Dustpan, and then put it directly in the pot to cook, yes, it needs to be boiled, and it needs to be over high heat. When it boils, it is boiled.

Then use chopsticks to make a swipe, divide it into four parts, turn it over, put the stuffing directly, and you can eat it directly.

Xiao Lingshuo held two plates of freshly baked vermicelli, and shouted loudly, "Eat vermicelli."

The vermicelli is out of the pot first, and the rice crackers are more troublesome, and they are still later.

Gong Tianhao's eyes lit up when he heard that the powder skin was out of the pot.

He said cautiously, "Grandpa, grandma, have played mahjong all morning, must be hungry, should we eat noodle first, and then we will continue after we are full."

After he was full, he just drove away.

As far as grandpa and grandma's mahjong skills are concerned, he really can't compliment them.

While he was thinking about giving them water quietly, he also thought about not letting himself lose too ugly, and even he didn't dare to win at all.

Playing mahjong like this made him tremble with fear.

Let Xiao Lingye accompany them to call in the afternoon.

However, he really likes to eat these traditional rural snacks, noodles, rice crackers, fried rice crackers, etc. These are all pure green things, which are really fragrant and delicious.

He thinks that it is better than dumplings, especially because he likes to eat salted radish stuffed, spicy and spicy, especially delicious.

"These noodles are really delicious!" After everyone ate them, they all praised.

Just a few years ago, they could still eat every now and then because they were farming in the countryside, and when it rained, they couldn't work, so they stayed at home.

When this woman is free, she will cook and eat.

It's just that they have been busy in the past few years. Usually, they don't have time to do this. Now they can only do it once on the first day of the new year.

Xiao Lingyu watched Gong Tianhao eating with the bowl very seriously, and asked, "Tianhao, do you like eating these noodle skins?"

Gong Tianhao nodded and said, "Well, I like it, it's very fragrant and delicious."

Xiao Lingyu smiled after hearing this.

The smile is bright and happy.
