The couple added the sweet potatoes to the mixed dough. After kneading it evenly, they started to use small jigs, rounded and flattened them, then wrapped the fillings in like dumplings and pinched the edges.
The wrapped straw cake looks like an oversized dumpling, so it is also called rice dumpling locally.
The two of them made a dozen salty snacks and steamed them in a pot.
The two children have been wandering around the stove since the straw bag cakes were put into the pot, asking, "Are you ready? Are you ready?"
The ears of those who listened were about to get calloused. The couple resisted the urge to hit anyone, and after the pot was out of the pot, they divided one into each other as soon as possible, and then they became quiet.
"If you can't finish eating, you'll beat me to death later!" Ye Yaodong glared at the two who kept arguing.
The two of them nodded. They didn't have time to say anything, and they took a small bite regardless of the fact that it was still hot. Then Sihashaha took a few bites and swallowed them casually, wondering if he could taste it.
Ye Yaodong also handed one to Lin Xiuqing, "This is just for lunch, no need to cook it anymore."
She nodded.
By the time the package is finished, it will probably be past meal time and there will be no need to cook.
This straw cake is big, bigger than an adult's fist. You can almost feel full after eating two or three at a meal.
After each of them ate two, they continued to wrap until all the fillings were wrapped, and then they continued to wrap sweet ones. There were only 20 sweet ones.
Their family doesn't like sweet food, so Ye Chenghu just made a noise asking for sweet food, so he left two for him. The others were sent to the old house together with the salty ones, and 50 more were given to the eldest brother and the second brother's family.
10, and I kept more than 60 at home.
There is no refrigerator to freeze quickly, and in this kind of weather, it can only be stored for three or four days, so you can eat enough at home.
It was overcast for another two days before the sun gradually came out again. Early in the morning, Lin Xiuqing took out all the quilts and clothes to dry in front of the door.
Ye Yaodong was sitting at the door leisurely basking in the sun, and thinking about going out to sea at night. He would also bring his wife and sister with him on the first day of the new year tomorrow. He was calculating how much bait he would bring, but he saw Secretary Chen starting from far away.
Call him while running.
"What the hell...Again?"
Several days passed without seeing anyone. He thought that the matter was over, or that he had already found the top tank, but he didn't expect him to come again?
"Ah Dong, hurry up and get ready. Someone from the county is here. They are in the commune and will be here soon."
"Grass……"
He cursed hard in his heart, and his whole face turned dark.
"Ask your wife to get ready quickly. Boil the water when it's time to boil it. She'll be at your house soon."
"Didn't I tell you to change someone else?"
"I can't change it. I've asked several families, but they're all far behind."
"I'm not far behind either."
"But you have already reported it."
MMP****
"What's the matter, Secretary Chen?" Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye were sitting at the door, weaving nets. They were very curious when they heard this.
Secretary Chen ignored their questions and instead begged his grandpa and grandma to cooperate, "I'll ask you about your general situation when I come over today. It's really not troublesome. Just tell me about the big stuff you've done online during this time, just like telling a story."
Just tell it vividly and vividly, and it will be fine."
Ye Yaodong sat there motionless, looking up at him sideways!
Give you a look and experience it for yourself!
Secretary Chen smiled and touched his nose, "Just get over it. There will be a commendation meeting at that time, and there will be rewards. I heard that a bicycle will be awarded..."
"I have it, I don't need..."
As soon as they finished speaking, they saw a group of people coming from a distance, followed by a large number of long tails. They were all villagers from this village. They could hear the noise even far away, and they were much more excited than him.
, there was a lot of discussion there.
"It's coming, it's coming, please cooperate..."
Ye Yaodong frowned. He was about to be pissed off by the people in the village committee. Their family needed to keep a low profile now. His wife was more than four months pregnant.
Wan Yuan Hu, that inappropriate eye-catching target?
He forced a smile on his face and looked at a group of dark people approaching. Several of the leaders were wearing glasses. At first glance, they were educated intellectuals...
"Hello, you are Comrade Ye Yaodong. I heard that you became the first 10,000-yuan household in this village by fishing this year. The oarfish that caused a sensation in the county some time ago was also caught by you. I didn't expect you to be so young.
, he is indeed capable..."
"I heard that this house is also newly built. Your family is really prospering..."
Ye Yaodong twitched the corners of his mouth and didn't know how to answer. Secretary Chen kept winking at him, and he had to give him face.
Next to them were the voices of villagers discussing, saying that he was indeed a householder worth ten thousand yuan...
"I've really made a fortune... Adong has only been out at sea for a long time, and he has become a household worth ten thousand yuan. Is it true?"
"Did he catch any other treasures?"
"Who knows, let's just listen here and we'll find out..."
"I heard that if you become a household worth 10,000 yuan, you will be published in the newspaper and there will be rewards. I don't know what the rewards will be."
"Enamel tub? Thermos bottle? Basin?"
"How is that possible? After all, you are a household worth ten thousand yuan and want to be published in the newspaper. How can you treat him like the outstanding members of the past! The reward enamel jar and the washbasin are so shabby..."
"That's right, I heard it's a reward bicycle, a play box..."
"I heard that there are three beeps and one beep. The county is very generous. I heard that they can even appear on TV..."
"real or fake?"
"It must be true! You see, all the county leaders have gone to the countryside and visited the door in person..."
"A Dong is incredible. He used to be like a gangster, doing nothing all day long. How long has it been now? In the blink of an eye, he has become a household worth ten thousand yuan... It's incredible... It's incredible..."
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Just when Ye Yaodong looked embarrassed and was fighting in his heart, a female voice suddenly shouted in the crowd, "My family is a household worth ten thousand yuan, and my family is also a household worth ten thousand yuan..."
"
She yelled and squeezed her way into the crowd, "Give way, everyone, let me in..."
When Ye Yaodong heard this shout, he immediately recognized who it was and his eyes lit up instantly.
When the leaders of the county turned to look, he immediately smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, the village made a mistake when reporting the number of households worth ten thousand yuan, and confused my cousin's name with mine. In fact,
The Wan Yuan household is my cousin Ye Yaohong."
As he spoke, he pulled the receptionist's wife who had just squeezed into the crowd to his side, "That's her. This is my receptionist's wife. Her family is a household worth ten thousand yuan."
Mrs. Ye Datang didn't understand what had just happened, but that didn't stop her from admitting that her family was worth tens of thousands of yuan. She nodded desperately and smiled to please the former county leader.
Several county leaders in front of him were immediately dumbfounded, and even several cadres of the village committee were also fooled.
Ye Yaodong quickly winked at Secretary Chen.
Secretary Chen had no choice but to bite the bullet and come out to explain, "Yes, the name was wrong, and we didn't notice it. It wasn't until the leaders came to tell us today that we thought that the names of the two brothers Ye Yaodong and Ye Yaohong were wrong. We had been thinking about it just now
I don’t know how to explain it, so I have to bring it here first.”
"Sigh... We are a bunch of old guys who are all elderly. Sometimes we can't call the young people in the village by their names. As a result, they got confused when reporting..."
Secretary Chen was extremely depressed, not because he didn't go to Ye Yaohong's house to ask, but because Ye Yaohong was not at home, what could the women at home know? That's why he didn't go to her house to ask if it was a household worth ten thousand yuan.
If I had known earlier, I would have gone directly to her house.
Look, this has come full circle...
Sister-in-law Ye Datang didn't expect that there would be such things. It turned out that it was her family that was going to be reported to the village?
She just said that if the village wanted to report a household worth ten thousand yuan, it must be her family. After she figured it out, her face was filled with smiles. She was so happy that she firmly admitted it.
“My family is a household worth ten thousand yuan!”
Suddenly, things took a turn for the worse. The villagers felt that their brains were running out, and the discussion became even louder.
"Let's just say, A Dong's family doesn't have any appliances, how can it be a household worth ten thousand yuan? It turns out there was a mistake."
"That's right, he has only been fishing for a few days, how can he become a household worth ten thousand yuan? If he is a household worth ten thousand yuan, I can also be..."
"It turns out that Ye Yaohong's family is a household worth ten thousand yuan. I heard that his business is now very big. He has bought a lot of home appliances, and they all have TV sets..."
"It's no wonder it's his family. I heard that many people in our village are now doing business with him, and they pay a lot of interest every month. Their family is rich now..."
Several county leaders listened to the people's discussions and realized that they had really made a mistake? Wasn't it an excuse?
Several people frowned and looked at each other for a few times before someone asked: "Did you really get the name wrong? Is Ye Yaohong the one with a household worth ten thousand yuan?"
Sister-in-law Ye Datong said enthusiastically with a smile on her face: "Yes, Ye Yaohong is from a household worth ten thousand yuan, and he and A Dong are cousins. Why don't the leaders come and sit at my house? My house has three beeps and one beep, and there are all TVs. Come on.
Once you see it, you will believe it.”
Secretary Chen's face was also full of smiles at this time, "Yes, yes, let's go and sit at Ye Yaohong's house. It's not far away, it's quite close."
"Originally, Ye Yaodong's fishing harvest has been very good in the past few months. We also thought that since we got the name wrong, we might as well come and find out whether he has reached the 10,000-yuan household level."
"If it is achieved, then there will be two households worth ten thousand yuan in our village, which will be glorious. If it is not achieved, there will be no loss. After understanding, we will also take the leaders to Ye Yaohong's house. Regarding the matter of households worth ten thousand yuan,
Don’t get confused.”
Having said that, it was Ye Yaodong's turn to take action.
He said with a smile: "I am just lucky and caught a few good fish. No, I changed a boat some time ago and owed some foreign debt, which was paid off immediately. I believe that it is only a matter of time before I become a householder with ten thousand yuan."
, when I become a household worth ten thousand yuan, I will definitely report it and add glory to the village."
A middle-aged man with Chinese characters and a resolute look on his face gave him a meaningful look, "It's quite impressive. You can actually pick up an oarfish. I believe you can become a millionaire."
"Well, County Magistrate Wu, since we made a mistake, let's go to Ye Yaohong's house to find out more?"
The middle-aged man with a Chinese-character face nodded.
Ye Tang's wife saw that the leading man agreed, the smile on her face deepened, and she quickly led the way with a happy face.
Thinking that she would be in newspapers and on TV soon, she had already thought about what color clothes she would wear then.
Red is definitely festive enough...
Purple is okay, bright red and big purple...
