Seventy-year-old book: The villain Zaizai’s best mother

Why do you think one dollar is so easy to make?

Many people in the village are afraid to go to the county hospital when they are sick, because a trip costs five yuan, and no one can easily come up with five yuan.

The reason why Tian Huaihua pleases Xia Mingshuang is because Xia Mingshuang is rich and may benefit her, but Liu Hongying is determined not to benefit her, so what is she trying to please?

Her parents-in-law are afraid of Liu Hongying, but she is not afraid.

They shouldn't try to flatter themselves by talking about their parents-in-law, and they won't eat it themselves.

Her relatives from the old Xia family, do they care about her?

She wants money!

After breaking the crutch, she had to say, "It's not my mother who instigated my eldest sister not to see you, it's my eldest sister who doesn't think of you at all." She shouted in relief: "My eldest sister will never visit you again." I will honor you again!"

Because my eldest aunt will give me the money she gave you in the future!

Liu Hongying was stunned for a moment. She was an old woman in her 60s. Her feet were bound and she didn't have much strength, so she had to use a walking stick.

At this moment, Tian Huaihua suddenly went crazy and stepped on her walking stick. She was stunned for a moment and then started to curse and act recklessly.

She was not like Mrs. Gu who wanted to save face and pretend to be weak. She just rolled on the ground and cried.

cry?

Tian Huaihua is not afraid. If she has money to support her, what does it mean to act like an old woman?

Liu Lanying was concerned about her daughter-in-law, "Sophora japonica, why are you so tough? Are you okay?"

What should I do if I get fetal gas when I stomp down?

Tian Huaihua said proudly: "Mom, I'm fine."

She held her belly and walked out, crying as she walked, "It's unreasonable. My aunt, who is so good, came to my house and went crazy. She beat my mother-in-law and then me. She even broke the walking stick."

Her grandma was used to crying in the streets back then. She was so influenced by it when she was a child that she imitated it.

Tian Huaihua is an uneducated country woman. She has never left the county. Apart from her natal village and her husband's village, she only visits relatives or communes. She has little knowledge and has not been baptized by any modern ideas. Her mind is full of things she has been taught since she was a child and what she has heard and heard.

She wants money, and she will fight anyone who fails to get it!

Never mind that she hated Xia Mingshuang before, but now that Xia Mingshuang gave her money, she was her great aunt.

The eldest aunt paid her to take good care of her mother-in-law, so she had to take care of her. If she was bullied, it was because she didn't take good care of her, and the money she got back would be wasted.

Absolutely not!

Liu Hongying looked like she was going to embarrass the whole village, so she climbed up. Although her feet were bound, she moved very quickly. She cursed bitterly: "Xiaowu, you can do it. Can't eldest sister see that you are so good at instigating your daughter?"

Xia's mother was so unjustly accused. She had been manipulated by her eldest sister since she was a child. How could she ever dare to say no?

Her leg was sprained and the pain was severe, and tears were falling down.

Liu Hongying: "Humph, if I hadn't married you to Lao Xia's family, if I hadn't helped Ming Shuang find such a good family, would you have the good life you have today? You two have lived a good life, but you have failed me." He fell down the wall and died."

Xia's mother kept wiping her tears.

Liu Hongying: "Did Mingshuang give you money when he came back?"

Xia's mother shook her head hastily, "No, come back and get the clothes Minghui made for her."

Liu Hongying: "You didn't bring anything?" She didn't listen to Xia's mother and went to the kitchen to look for it after smelling it.

The dried seafood that Xia Mingshuang brought back were all placed in the kitchen by Tian Huaihua. Some were placed in cabinets, some were hung from the beams, and some were hidden in small tanks.

Tian Huaihua is responsible for cooking, and this kitchen is regarded as her private territory. Now Liu Hongying comes to stir up trouble, how can she bear it?

Tian Huaihua immediately shouted at the top of her voice: "Auntie, why do you come to the kitchen to steal our family's food rations? Our family doesn't even have enough food."

Because country people are uneducated and ignorant, they are repeatedly disciplined in a closed environment. Therefore, most of them are shameless and feel that their face is too great to be laughed at by their relatives, friends and neighbors. Some people suffer a lot for the sake of that little bit of face, and many people even try to make themselves look fat.

As long as there is a person among them who is thick-skinned, shameless, and not afraid of embarrassment, he will be able to do anything, and no one can do anything against him.

For example, Zhang Lezi from Gujialing, Xia Mingshuang, Tian Huaihua and Liu Hongying, who would rather be said to be good eaters than lazy workers, are all this type of people.

But after all, Tian Huaihua is young and has been spoiled by her parents and brothers since she was a child. She has been selfish and willful since she was a child, while Liu Hongying still has to worry about the face of her children, grandchildren and others.

The neighbors poked their heads in to inquire about the gossip, which made Liu Hongying very embarrassed and left angrily, poking her little feet.

She was going to Gujialing to find Mrs. Gu and Xia Mingshuang in person to ask what was going on!

Xia Mingshuang knew nothing about it. She took her son back home and started working.

She wants to make Zhang Danping's chicken cake first, and then make some handmade mooncakes.

No matter how difficult and difficult the life of ordinary people is at any time, there are always some people who live an easy life with no shortage of food and drink, who still have enough energy to pursue higher enjoyment, and are keen to compare with their relatives, friends and colleagues around them.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone must give gifts to leaders, elders, relatives and friends. They give more in affluent times and less in hard times, but mooncakes are almost a must.

This is a custom that has been handed down since ancient times. Anyone who doesn't give it away will be stabbed in the spine.

So when the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, many families are worried. The food rations are not enough. Where can they have money to buy moon cakes?

Commune members also have ideas. If they are reluctant to buy moon cakes, they steam a few jujube dumplings or yellow rice and jujube cakes, which can be enough to cope with visiting relatives.

Those in the city or those with status, who have food and money, naturally have to pay attention to it.

For example, Zhang Danping, if she can eat such chicken cakes, she will definitely buy such moon cakes.

The materials were limited, so she made five-nut mooncakes first.

Five-nut mooncakes have been badly made by some unscrupulous merchants, but actually they are delicious when made well.

She took the white sugar and honey from Zhang Danping, added egg liquid according to a certain proportion, added a little baking soda powder, and stirred it into a pale white paste, then added a certain amount of cooking oil, kept stirring, and then added flour and kneaded it directly. Pastry noodles.

When the noodles were waking up, she started to mix the fillings. She had fried walnut kernels, pumpkin seeds, black and white sesame seeds, peanuts, melon seeds, raisins, chopped hawthorn slices, plus an appropriate amount of vegetable oil, white sugar, and fried flour. , and finally knead it into an appropriate amount of small dumplings.

When the dough is ready, start wrapping the dough, one dough ball at a time, one filling ball at a time, and then wrap it in little by little, until the mouth is flattened so that no filling is leaked.

Finally, use a wooden mooncake mold to press out the mooncake pattern.

Xiao Zai Zai has always been there to help. He is a quiet and well-behaved child. Although he likes to help, he will never cause trouble to his mother.

Seeing the beautiful mooncakes being pushed out, his big eyes lit up.

Xiao Zaizai: "Mom, you look good."
