De Mingniang said, "Oh, so you're here. When your mother came yesterday, she said that your uncle wanted to come and fetch your grandmother back for the new year. Did you set a time to come back?"

Qi Xiang said, "My mom said that she would send my grandma home at 28/29. My grandma's house is cold, so my mom is afraid that my grandma might catch a cold from staying at home for too long."

"I made a hat for your grandmother when I had nothing better to do these past few days. I finished it last night, so you should give it to your grandmother. My health isn't good, so I can't just give it to your grandmother by myself."

The flowers and plants that were embroidered had a tinge of spirit energy to them. Qi Zheng looked at the hat that was handed over by Deming. The hat was black in color and it was embroidered with a small lace. It looked very elegant.

When he returned home with the hat Deming had made for his grandma, his mother and grandma were already kneading noodles.

The steamed bun used to be used for steamed bread at home. The last time, a small piece of steamed bun would be used for the old noodles, and the next time, when the noodles were served, the old noodles would be kept alive for a period of time. When there were some small honeycomb areas in the noodles, the noodles would be done.

When Mama Qi saw the hat Qi Yuan brought back, she said to her grandma, "Deming is the best craftsman in our village. When I first got married, I went to her house to learn how to embroider. When her little uncle got married, I learned that pair of pillow towels from Deming."

Grandma held the hat in her hand and looked at it carefully. "It's really pretty. This sewing machine looks like it's made by a machine. Your sister-in-law's cooking skills are really amazing."

"I see that Eldest Sister has made a lot of needlework and a little apron for the child in Sister Deming's womb," he said.

Mother Qi said, "Your eldest sister-in-law's illness was brought out of her mother's womb and has been nurtured by medicine for so many years. If it wasn't for the children in the Deming family holding their breath, I think they would have gone with her."

Grandma said, "It's a good thing that we have Deming's daughter-in-law. If she didn't support us, we would have already separated. Tingting is still so young, it will be very difficult for her to get married in the future."

Mama Qi said, "Life is slowly passing by, the road is walked step by step. I think Tingting has grown a lot in this half year."

Qi Yuan had finished kneading mother Qi into two small dough pieces and was kneading them together on the clean surface of the board. This is the face of a woman in the family. If a steamed bun is steamed well, then I know that you can hold the house and work, but if it is steamed badly, then I know that you cannot do anything. It is possible that you are a lazy woman, and some relatives who cannot steamed well will find someone to help them steam it before the new year and place it in a jar before they leave for the new year.

The steamed bun steamed by Mama Qi was both hard and good-looking. Just by looking at the sweat on her forehead from how she kneaded the dough in front of the panel, one could tell how delicious the steamed bun was.

"Mom, should I help you knead the dough?"

Mother Qi took a deep breath and said, "No need, just take these ingredients. We usually eat our own food, so I have to knead the steamed buns for the new year."

The steamed buns were steamed in New Year's Eve and were steamed to a lesser degree than usual. When relatives came to eat, the dishes on the table would be half full. Usually, only half of the steamed buns would be full. They all went to the steamed bun store to order steamed buns for the new year. Although the steamed buns in the steamed buns restaurant looked pretty nice, they were not as delicious as the steamed buns cooked at home. Especially for the new year, steamed buns was a very important thing, Mother Qi was going to stew two pots of steamed buns this year, then steamed another pot of jujube.

Mother Qi was very smart. Once, when she was watching TV and learning how to make hedgehogs, she also thought about how to make other small animals, so when it was time for Chinese New Year, not only were there Zaoshan, the noodle fish and other traditional pastries, but also small animals like small hedgehogs.

In the afternoon, she would stew the noodles in the second pot. After lunch, she would cook the noodles in the third pot and tonight, she would be able to cook the noodles in the third pot. As long as she helped her mother knead the noodles and kneaded the noodles, she would split the noodles into two and put them one by one on the table. Soon, a round dough was placed on the table and a steamed bun was made.

The big pot had already been prepared. After placing the grill and the steamed buns soaked in water, Mama Qi picked the steamed buns up one by one and put them in. She then covered the big pot with the lid, waiting for around ten to twenty minutes before she could start a fire.

The steamed bread in the house was steamed by Third Uncle in the fall, so he didn't have to stay in front of the stove all the time. He just needed to come over later and see if the fire died down.

Mother Qi began to clean up the cabbage, fried fish and lotus seeds that would be prepared in two days.

Qi Xiang said, "Why did they all leave when I went out in the morning?"

Mama Qi said, "Your grandfather wanted to write a letter for someone else, so he called Qi Jian over to get them. He took Guo Guo to the village to play with."

Zhang Qi said, "Xiao Rong also went with him? Xiao Rong and Qi Yuan really have the same temperament, we've only known each other for a few days and they're already so good. "

Mother Qi said, "It's fate that people get along with each other. Even though many people in our village have lived together for many years, they still don't have much of a relationship. Some people only see each other a few times, and sometimes they get along very well after just a long time."

Qi Xiang said, "That's true, I think that Xiao Rong is doing quite well here. Qi Yuan can explain to him about the entrance exams in the middle of the year."

Mother Qi said, "I think the two kids have been spending the last two days together reading books and doing homework. It's pretty good. Sigh, even Qi Ku couldn't help but feel like she was having a good time during the holidays. Even if she didn't do her homework and didn't read any books, what should we do after the new year's exam? "

Qi Xiang said, "Don't worry about her, this sister of mine is just like that. Just go and find her wherever there's trouble. Just make her calm down like Qi Yuan and learn from her." Let's just follow her. "

Mother Qi said, "Then let's do it like this, when the year is over, let the two children grab hold of me tightly, both of us have to take the exam, why isn't such a young child going to school? "Look at those sixteen to seventeen year old children in our village. Some of them have already become bad kids by following some delinquents around. It's better if they went to a school."

Qi Xiang said, "Mom, don't worry. Both of them will definitely be able to pass the exam."

When the first steamer was ready at 11: 00 a.m., a refreshing fragrance of wheat wafted out from the steaming steam. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath, and the salivary glands in his mouth immediately became vigorous.

Mama Qi dipped her hand into the small aluminum pot filled with cold water beside the pot, then quickly picked up a steamed bun and placed it on the curtain. "Mom, can't you use a shovel in this heat?"

"It's not good to use a spade to break the skin of the steamed bun, it's impossible to break the skin of the hot steamed bun," Mrs Qi said.

In a little while, twenty steamed buns were placed on the cover of the pot. Mama Qi took the steamed buns out and placed them in a small aluminum basin. She would wash them later and use them to steam the steamed buns in the afternoon.

Mama Qi rolled a small face into a round shape, pinched a small mouth of a hedgehog, used two green beans as the eyes of the hedgehog, and then used the scissors to cut off the head of the hedgehog.

Seeing a small hedgehog come out alive in the hands of mother Qi, the children were unwilling to go out. First, Guo Guo asked mother if she could make some small animals, and then mother Qi made a little bird, saying that it was better to make a panda with dough. Qi Yuan and Wu Yurong were also interested in making panda with dough, and as they discussed what kind of animals to make, mother Qi looked at these excited children, smiled bitterly and said to Qi Yang, "Let them cook themselves, I'll cook some steamed buns tomorrow."

Seeing how the kids dressed up and dressed up, the so-called small animals who looked so rotten said in unison, "I'll make you something special. You guys watch."

He cut a piece of dough into small portions the size of dumplings and rolled them into a piece of leather. Then, he twisted the dough into a thin strip and placed it on a small piece of leather. Then, he rolled the dough slowly.

Putting the roses on the board, the kids were amazed. Guo Guo said, "Wa, if it was dyed red, how beautiful would it be?"

Qi said, "Sis, you're amazing. Can you do anything else?"

He took a piece of dough and divided it into two groups, one after the other, and rolled it into cakes of equal size. He spread some cooking oil on the dough, spread it evenly, then folded it twice and cut it into three pieces. The same parts were folded and put together.

Looking at the rose roll and lotus roll on the curtain, Guo Guo chuckled and said, "Big sister Qi Zheng, please make me another small animal."

After thinking about it for a while, Qi Can picked up a piece of dough and split it into two, then kneaded it into a round shape, using a bit of dough to make two bunnies' ears to stick onto the dough, then kneaded a bit of dough to make a thin piece of dough to make a bunny's tail. Qi Hu watched as a bit of dough, after a short while, was turned around and turned into a bunny, happily saying, "Elder sister, you're so strong, it looks very simple."

He said, "This rabbit is three-dimensional. I'll make you a flat one."
