14. Two gluttonous cats
Yueyan saw that the plum flowers she had picked up were almost there, so she soaked two-thirds of the petals in water, and added the rest to the flour. The flour is blanched with boiling plum tea soup, added to the glutinous rice flour, added sugar, and kneaded into a dough with an appropriate amount of tea soup.
Yue Yan wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve, and her body was a little unbearable for a while, and now this body is too weak. It seems that you have to start practicing the exercises passed down by the silver snake at night, otherwise you won't have the ability to protect yourself at all if you encounter something.
Yueyan has the family boxing technique and spitting method handed down from her previous life, but it is not as good as the silver snake. Although the family exercises are also a simplified version handed down by the Silver Snake at the beginning, the simplified version is definitely not as good as the original version, and it is not so complete.
"Give!" When Yueyan didn't pay attention, the duckling took a towel from the yard and handed it over.
"Thank you, Duckling, Duckling is so smart!" Yueyan wiped her sweat with a towel and praised her.
The duckling heard Yueyan's praise and his eyes were shining, and he pursed his lips and smiled shyly.
Although the duckling didn't smile much, Yueyan knew that the duckling was very happy. Children who do good deeds always need the encouragement of adults, and children like Duckling need the encouragement of adults even more.
"Come, Auntie helps the duckling wipe his face, our duckling is about to become a little flower cat!" Yueyan nodded the duckling's forehead, pulled the duckling over and let her sit on the laughing stool, and carefully helped the duckling wipe the flour off her face.
It turned out that the duckling didn't know when he got some flour on his face, and he really looked like a cat.
Wipe the duckling's face and hands, put a steamer on the stove, add an appropriate amount of water, and start the fire. After a while, the water began to heat out, and the dough that had just been kneaded was almost awake.
Yueyan divides the dough into small doughs of about the same size by hand, puts the kneaded dough in the steamer and starts steaming.
"Little duckling, follow your aunt's reading, and you can eat plum cake when you read two thousand." Yueyan moved two small stools beside the stove and began to teach the duckling to count, and she could also lure the duckling to talk more.
At the end of the seventies, let alone the county, it was estimated that few people in the country knew what autism was, let alone treated. So Yueyan can only guide the duckling slowly, but fortunately, the duckling's current situation is not very strict.
Although Yueyan is not a caring person, her heart can't help but soften when facing children. And in Yueyan's previous life, there was a niece in the family who was hurt by Yueyan. Looking at the duckling, who is not much older than her niece, how can Yueyan bear to let the duckling live in her own world for the rest of her life.
And from the memory left by the original owner, I know that Aunt Zhang's family is very good to the original owner. So Yueyan wanted to try it and see if she could help the duckling.
"One, Two, Three, Four"
When I read it for more than a thousand, the aroma of pastries began to emerge from the steamer, and the aroma was not very strong, but it was like this, and people couldn't help but drool.
The little duckling was originally very serious about following Yue Yannian, but when the aroma of the pastry kept coming out, he was a little inattentive, and his little eyes began to look at the steamer.
"Little glutton!" Yueyan looked at the duckling's greed, so she stopped and stopped teaching.
At this time, the aroma of the pastry was already strong, and the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of plum blossoms mixed with flour. Not to mention that the duckling is greedy, even Yueyan can't help but want to eat it when she smells it.
Yueyan smelled the fragrance and felt that it was almost there, so she opened the steamer to check. As soon as the steamer is opened, the fragrance suddenly wafts around, fresh and elegant. And the pastries on the cage are surrounded by heat, which looks particularly crystal clear. Just looking at the appearance, it makes people's appetite move, not to mention the addition of fragrance.
And after Yueyan opened the steamer, the duckling stood next to the steamer and didn't move, staring at the steamer with both eyes, holding the food tightly like a little beast guarding food, as if he was afraid that someone would rob him.
Yueyan looked at the duckling like this, and shook her head funny.
Yueyan extinguished the fire, opened the steamer and filled the plate with a plate of plum cake and put it on the table in the hall. And after the duckling saw Yueyan turn off the fire, he followed closely behind Yueyan.
"Duckling, let's go wash our hands and wash our hands before eating." Yueyan got some hot water to help the duckling clean his hands, and at this time, the pastry was no longer hot, so she took a piece for the duckling to eat.
"Delicious, right?" Watching the duckling eat the plum cake carefully, his eyes narrowed, and he liked it very much at first glance.
The duckling nodded.
Looking at the duckling, he looked like he was enjoying it, as if he had eaten the world's deliciousness, and Yueyan also took a piece and ate it.
As soon as I took a bite, my mouth was filled with a fragrance. The pastry is crispy and palatable, the fragrance is pure, sweet but not greasy.
The pastry bigger than the duckling's fist, the duckling ate two pieces in one go, and Yueyan also ate three pieces.
"Hiccup" The duckling couldn't help but burp, although he was full, his eyes were still staring at the pastries on the plate, and he couldn't wait to eat them all.
"Come, let's eat less, and if you like it, we'll eat it later. You can't eat too much at once, otherwise your stomach will not be able to stand it, and the pastry will not run! Yueyan took the duckling's hand and took it to the yard for a walk.
Only then did Yueyan find that there were many fruit trees planted in the courtyard, in addition to plum trees, there were also peach trees, grape trees, orange trees, grapefruit trees, and persimmon trees. Yueyan took a closer look and found that some had been planted for more than ten years, and some had been planted for twenty or thirty years. It is estimated that Lin Hao planted it for more than ten years, and the others should be planted by his father Lin Revolution.
Yueyan didn't take a closer look in the morning, but now she finds that the yard is quite large, and it is estimated that it will be more than an acre. Fruit trees were planted in front of the house, and there was an open space on the left side of the house, about the size of three or four cents of land, and the open space was very clean and nothing was planted.
Yueyan was thinking about planting some vegetables, and she wanted to ask Aunt Zhang when she would get some vegetable seedlings or seeds to plant in the space. The things that are currently in the space are full of aura, and they are not at all what Yueyan can withstand at present. So whatever you want to eat, you have to grow it yourself.
But the things grown in the space, Yueyan can't take them out of thin air and eat them. Now there is such an open space, just enough to be covered. Even if the vegetables on the ground ripen faster, Yueyan can be said to have grown it well.
Pulling the duckling around the yard and returning to the hall, Yueyan kicked her ass and sat on the stool.
Yueyan turned her head to look at the duckling, and the duckling sat next to Yueyan with a steady breath, and she couldn't see that she had walked for more than half an hour. Yueyan rubbed her legs, thinking that this body was really bad, not even as good as a child.
"Duckling, do you want to hear a story? Is it okay for Auntie to tell you a story? Looking at the duckling sitting beside him, Yueyan touched the duckling's head and asked.
Storytelling? The duckling tilted his head and looked at Yueyan suspiciously.
"Once upon a time, there was a monkey that jumped out of the stone" Yueyan began to tell the story of "Journey to the West" with the duckling, and Yueyan knew that there were few children who didn't like this. Even Yueyan was still watching it when she was a teenager in her previous life, not only watched cartoons, but also watched the 86 versions of the TV series several times, and even the movie version played by Stephen Chow did not let go.
After Yueyan began to speak, the duckling listened attentively and felt that the story told by her aunt was really strange. That monkey is really amazing, if only I had that monkey as powerful, so that I can make a lot of delicious plum cakes.
"Monkey King puts the 6,000-year-old peaches in the peach orchard"
Six thousand years of peaches? That's six thousand years old. That's a lot bigger than a duckling, who is only six years old. The duckling quietly hooked his fingers and counted, and found that he couldn't count it.
Yueyan naturally didn't know how old the duckling was counting peaches than herself.
"The Jade Emperor invited the Buddha to press Sun Wukong under the Five Fingers Mountain for 500 years"
"Huh?" The little duckling was surprised when he heard Yueyan say that Sun Wukong had been crushed under Wuzhi Mountain for five hundred years.
"Little Duckling, do you understand any reason when you hear this?" Yueyan lowered her head and asked.
The duckling shook his head ignorantly.
"Sun Wukong is too arrogant, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky. He was arrogant and arrogant, always thinking that he was the best in the world, so he was pressed by the Buddha at the foot of the Five Fingers Mountain."
Speaking of this, Yueyan's thoughts drifted away, thinking of the two Lich Clans, if it weren't for the arrogance of the Lich Two Clans, who wanted to destroy each other and dominate the world, they would not have ended up in the end.
I have to be careful in the future, and I don't know if there are any powerful Taoist cultivators now.
