My Ranch

I'm back! As Jiang Hai walked in from the outside with a smile carrying two cages of seafood, everyone who was busy in the villa also raised their heads. If it comes to cleaning up the pigs, the people in Jiang Hai's villa can Said no one had cleaned it up.

But after Aphra and the others entered Jiang Hai's place, their thoughts were on Jiang Hai's servants.

So they were the main ones to clean up the pork. As for the one in charge, it was Ai Xiaoxi. She was the only one who had seen pig killing. When Jiang Hai came back, the pork had almost been processed and was heading towards I'm shaving some meat.

Although Jiang Hai doesn't eat fatty meat, when making dumplings, he needs some fat to hold the filling together.

So Aphra and the others mixed some fat meat and made it into mince to eat.

After watching Jiang Hai come back, everyone responded briefly, then went to take the two cages of things from Jiang Hai's hands, and took the initiative to go to the kitchen to clean them. Jiang Hai's abalones were all wild abalones, wild abalones. The abalone is chewy and delicious, but it is a bit troublesome because it is wild and the kind dug by Jiang Hai is very big.

So there are a lot of things attached to the abalone, including some gravel, hair, and other shells, which are very dirty.

So you need to brush it directly to get rid of any loose things on it, then cook it, then dig out the meat, throw away the green internal organs and so on, and then cut the meat into cubes to make stuffing.

The same is true for sea cucumbers. Although they had already spit out their internal organs when Jiang Hai caught them in the sea, the skin also needed to be washed. When they went to pick up the sea cucumbers and abalone, Jiang Hai and the others also There is no idle time.

Take out the shrimps, use a toothpick to stretch it from the back of the shrimp head, and pick out the shrimp threads. These shrimp threads are full of dirty things. If you don't pick them out, the shrimps will taste stinky. , not clean either.

After getting everything done, Jiang Hai and the others began to divide the work and cooperate. In about an hour, all the materials were prepared, and then they started to make the stuffing, cutting the sea cucumber and abalone into small pieces. , put the chopped cabbage and the pork that has been prepared with a meat grinder into a large basin, put in salt, cooked oil, cooking wine and the like to marinate for a while.

Then use the soup made from the remaining bones of the butchered pig as water, mix it for a while, and then put it in the refrigerator to freeze it.

Then divide the shrimp into two sections and put one section inside a dumpling. After doing it, Qi Ya also took out the noodles.

At this time, the noodles distributed in the morning had turned into a big lump. Qi Ya took the lead there, and Jiang Hai and others helped to get the noodles out. After cutting the noodles, they kneaded them again and put them in. In the basin.

Then Qi Ya started to teach everyone how to make dough and make dumplings. Speaking of which, making dumplings is very simple. Spread out the dough, put stuffing in the middle, and add half a shrimp on the side. This is half done. Then Just pinch it, and you must not squeeze out the filling. You must also control some strength to make the noodles stick together.

But it's very troublesome to make the dough. It needs to be thicker in the middle and thinner on both sides. This is a technical task.

After trying for a long time, Qi Ya discovered that Ai Xiaoxi, Feng Yunchen, Aphra and Hilda had such talents.

So they took out the rolling pin, and the five of them hurried, while Jiang Hai and the others were making the dumplings next to them. Although the dumplings they made looked strange, the atmosphere was quite good. Everyone was talking and laughing while wrapping the dumplings.

Because they eat beef and seafood all year round, even without Jiang Hai's input of spiritual energy, the physical fitness of these women has become very good after absorbing the spiritual energy, and they don't feel too tired when wrapped up.

Dumplings were being kneaded one after another, each one standing quietly beside it like a little ingot.

Looking at the scene in front of him and listening to the laughter, Jiang Hai couldn't help but think of when he was a child...

That would have been ten years ago? No, it should have been twenty years ago... At that time, not only his parents were there, but also his grandfather, grandmother, grandma, and grandpa. During the Chinese New Year, Jiang Hai and the others would reunite at his grandfather's house when they were thirty. Year.

Back then, his parents, his uncle's family, and his two aunts would all be there. Several women gathered together, watching the Spring Festival Gala and making dumplings, while he, his dad, his uncle, and His brother and sister waited for the most boring show in the Spring Festival Gala together, and then went downstairs to set off cannons... It was the same in the third grade of junior high school, when they went to grandma and grandpa's house...

But I don’t know when it started. It may be that after everyone of the older generation has gone to their own lives, there is no lively feeling during the New Year. Except for the closed restaurants everywhere, there are almost no traces of the New Year...

Especially in the past few years, the Chinese New Year is also the most troublesome time for Jiang Hai, because all the lights are on, but he only has himself.

But all in all, last year was not bad. After spending the New Year at my old mother-in-law's house, I finally gained some popularity.

This year, Jiang Haida really wants to celebrate the New Year at home, because he feels that his home now feels like a Chinese New Year.

Hey, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about it? Just when Jiang Hai was sighing there, Qi Jie's hand full of face couldn't help but wipe it on Jiang Hai's face, and said with a smile on his face, hearing Jiang Hai didn't say anything to her, he just picked up his hand and tapped her nose, and then chuckled, Home, this is my home, isn't it?

Although this family doesn't seem too reunited right now, one day it will be reunited.

After smiling, Jiang Hai focused more on the dumplings in front of him. As Jiang Hai came back to his senses, everyone started wrapping them at full speed again. Every girl has a different personality, and everyone has a different personality. It is living life.

Jiang Hai could really feel them. This was not a dream, everything was real. This was Winthrop, Jiang Hai's Tenglong Manor!

Not long after, the dumplings were almost ready, and the time came to around four o'clock in the afternoon unknowingly.

Qi Ya, who was already busy and hungry, directed everyone to steam the food in the steamer and boil it in the water.

Everyone got busy on their own. At about five o'clock, everything was ready. Following Jiang Hai's order, everyone who had already prepared the ritual materials stretched out their hands at the first time. With chopsticks, I picked up the dumplings in front of me.

Not to be outdone, Jiang Hai directly took a piece. He didn't add anything to the first one, but took a bite. However, this bite almost didn't burn him because there was soup in the stuffing, and the soup was The dumpling fillings were already frozen, so I didn’t notice them when I was making them. But after cooking, the dumpling fillings were lumped together and there was still some soup.

As soon as he took a bite, the hot soup rushed out. Although it was very hot, Jiang Hai was stunned and didn't want to spit it out.

Because this soup is so fresh and delicious. The flavors of meat, bones, abalone, sea cucumber, prawns, and cabbage are perfectly blended together in this soup. When you take a bite, you can taste the soup and fillings. It feels really great.

After taking a few breaths, Jiang Hai chewed in half of the dumpling, and then couldn't wait to eat the remaining half.

Jiang Hai was not the only one who had his mouth burned because of his gluttony. Suddenly, there was a sound of air-conditioning sucking all over the dining table. However, even though it was hot, no one would spit out the dumplings that touched their mouths. , one is because of the delicious food, and the other is because of the atmosphere. Normally, the people in Jiang Hai's manor are not as harmonious as they are today. After today, Jiang Hai can feel that the original gap between everyone is so great. A lot less in an instant.

Next time when Valentina and the others come back, let's make dumplings and eat them too! Let's all join together! Looking at the lively atmosphere in front of her, Azarina walked over and whispered, hearing her words , Jiang Hai also smiled and nodded, that’s the reason!

While Jiang Hai and the others were enjoying their meal here, the other group of people were not so happy...

At this time, on the other side of the United States, Massachusetts is the northeastern corner of the United States, and the view now turns to the southwest corner.

California, referred to as California, in China, this state name is second only to New York, and this is actually the case.

All cities in the world combined, New York ranks first in the world, and Los Angeles ranks second.

However, the target of our sight now is not in Los Angeles, but in Santa Clara County. It should be said that this name is still unfamiliar to everyone, but when it comes to another alias, everyone will probably say Oh, it turns out to be it ! Silicon Valley!

The headquarters of the United States, where high-tech enterprises gather, was walking on the streets of Santa Clara County. A middle-aged man was walking forward with a bottle of wine while shaking it, and took a sip from time to time.

The decadence on this middle-aged man's face and the smell of alcohol on his body are actually not unfamiliar to people in this area.

Entrepreneurship distribution centers are naturally also unemployment distribution centers. While some people succeed, more people will fail.

So in New York and Silicon Valley, such a figure is really normal...

At this time, this person was just like this. He was shaking and cursing someone. He walked into a green community with three steps, and then walked into a small villa. He was swaying. , took out the key and opened the door, then walked into his bedroom, but just as he turned on the light, his pupils instantly dilated, because the room that should have been empty was now full of people, looking at these people , a stream of cold sweat slowly flowed down from his forehead...

Who are you? What are you doing in my house? The man asked while leaning against the wall, and at the same time he stretched his hand towards the door handle. At this time, the original intoxicated state was gone, and he looked permanently frightened. It’s a great way to sober up.

We are your friends! Ma Young-Smith. After hearing his words, a middle-aged man wearing mountaineering clothes came out with a smile... (To be continued.)
