Chapter 639 Mind and Brain Calculation

   Zhou Guilan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law prepared the noodles and stuffing for making dumplings, so they put the panel and curtain on the kang and started making dumplings.

  Xu Shiyan washed his hands and rolled the skin. Xu Jinping and Xu Jinhui also washed their hands and came over to help with the wrapping.

  Even though Xu Jinhui is still young, her hands are not stupid, and the dumplings are so small and exquisite that they are very beautiful.

  Xu Haiyuan glanced at the panel, then quickly turned his head.

   No way, this thing was beaten every time he saw it, and he had practiced it many times, but the wrapping was not good, and it couldn't catch up with the good-looking ones made by the third sister.

  It's too shocking and sad, let's watch TV.

  The leek stuffing loves water, so wrap the leek stuffing first, wrap a curtain, cover it with a clean white cloth immediately, and bring it to the shed outside.

  This plastic shed is quite warm during the day when the sun is shining, and the temperature drops to minus ten degrees at night.

  The dumplings were put in the shed, and when it was around ten o'clock, the outer skin was frozen hard, and the filling inside was not completely frozen, which was better than putting them in the house.

  Start making dumplings before seven o'clock, and there are so many people working, no matter how young Xu Jinhui is, she never fails to make dumplings.

  So at 8:30, all the dumplings are finished, so I can watch the party with peace of mind.

  This year’s party was very lively, with comedians from all walks of life, and the cross talks and sketches were very exciting.

   There is a program in the middle, which is selected and sent by the Liaoyuan No. 2 Experimental Primary School in this province. It is a collective quick calculation for children.

   This program attracted Xu Jinping's attention.

  Watching the children on TV quickly calculate the numbers reported by the host, the little girl's eyes widened immediately.

   "Dad, I want to learn this."

  Hearing this, Xu Shiyan could only smile wryly, "Girl, you seem to be too old. Look, they are all younger than you."

   It is said that this kind of quick calculation is best practiced from the first grade, and the small abacus is simulated in the child's mind.

  Through some formulas and high-intensity calculation training, children can form a mechanical memory.

  So after hearing the host's report, he will give the answer very quickly.

  Xu Shiyan didn't know how to train this.

  Anyway, it seems that there were a few years in my previous life. There are a lot of trainings for quick calculation in this province, and many children go to learn it.

   It became popular for a while, and then it disappeared and no one learned it anymore.

   It is said that this does not have much effect on the improvement of mathematics ability.

  Especially in junior high school and high school, mathematics pays more attention to logic and thinking, and this kind of quick calculation is useless.

   "Besides, we don't have this locally, haven't you heard? This is from Liaoyuan, which is quite far from our place.

  Even if I can send you there, you can only train for a period of time during the winter and summer vacations.

  If you don't practice normally, you will soon become unfamiliar, and it will be useless in the end.

  If you really like mathematics, why not buy some mathematics books for you when I go out next time, and you can read them yourself. "

  Donggang is a rural area, and the development is slow.

   It will take at least five or six years for these special interest classes to be passed on. Right now, there is really no such thing, and I can’t learn it.

   "Okay, then I won't study, Dad, remember, buy me more math books next time."

  Xu Jinping didn't commit any crimes, so she had to learn. Since Dad said he couldn't learn, let's forget it.

  So, the father-daughter conversation is over, and everyone is watching TV again.

  With the wonderful performance on TV, everyone laughed out loud.

  Brilliant programs that attract everyone's attention and make people forget the passage of time.

  Suddenly there was a burst of firecrackers, reminding Zhou Guilan, she turned her head and saw, ouch, it's almost eleven o'clock.

   "Okay, let's boil the dumplings quickly, don't delay the paper delivery."

   No matter how beautiful the party is, it can't delay the business, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hurried to the kitchen, lit a fire and boiled water to cook dumplings.

  At the other end, Xu Chenghou and Xu Shiyan also quickly took out a large pile of burnt paper and spread it on the ground.

  Xu Shiyan took out a ten-yuan bill and measured it a few times on the burnt paper.

  Some people say that if the burnt paper is not printed, it will be blank after burning, which is useless.

  In the early days, copper coins were used to print. In the middle years, feudal superstitions were abolished, and the copper coins of each family disappeared.

  Nowadays, banknotes are used, and the banknotes with the largest denomination are compared a few times before they are printed.

   Waiting for a few more years, this burnt paper will also come out new, with copper coin patterns on it, and specially printed Ming coins, so there is no need to bother so much.

   After the burnt paper is printed, turn and draw with both hands, then fold it up and divide it into several parts.

  The other side said that the water was boiling and the dumplings would be cooked immediately. Xu Shiyan held the paper and asked Xu Haiyuan and Xu Haiqing to carry firecrackers, and the three of them went out to distribute paper and set off firecrackers.

   With the sound of firecrackers saying goodbye to the old year, the new year is here.

  The three of you set off a few strings of firecrackers outside, and then set off a few flash thunders, colorful pearls, diamond monkeys and so on.

   It happened that the house was shouting for dinner, and the three of them didn't bother to put too much, so they hurried back to the house with their hands in their hands, ready to eat dumplings.

   Dumplings stuffed with chives, when boiled, there will be a burst of aroma.

  Before I stayed in the house, I couldn’t feel it. If I entered the house from the outside, the fresh fragrance would go straight into my nose, which would make people come out.

  Especially Xu Haiqing, for the reunion dinner in the afternoon, he just went there in love with those drinks and filled his stomach with water.

   I was hungry just now and ate some snacks.

   Now smelling the aroma of dumplings, the little guy finally couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed into the house, yelling to have dinner quickly, he was hungry.

   "Why did you say you were here in the afternoon? I have to ignore it. Are you hungry this time?"

  Su Anying brought dumplings into the house, and when she heard her son shouting, she sneered.

   "Wait, the adults haven't eaten at the table yet, what are you doing? There are no rules."

  Su Anying glared at her youngest son, not allowing him to secretly reach out to eat the dumplings.

  Xu Haiqing was stared at by her mother, so she could only sit there obediently, staring at the dumplings in front of her, and kept muttering in her heart.

   Hurry up and eat, hurry up.

  Two large pots, just cooking two kinds of fillings separately, and after a while they were all taken out and served on the table, and the big guys sat down to eat.

   "Come on, let's all try this year's dumplings, leeks, shrimps, elm and yellow mushrooms, ouch, this is so delicious.

  If you don’t like leeks, you can eat stuffed cabbage and radish.

  Inside the two fillings, I put money, dates, peanuts, and sugar, to see who can eat the money. "

  This is a clever trick to induce children to eat more, and it will work after all trials.

  The children who were already hungry, when they heard this, didn’t they all stare?

  But the dumplings are all wrapped in the same shape, with skins on the outside, so how do you know what's inside?

   After looking at it for a long time, I couldn't see anything, so I had to eat it casually.

   "Well, it's delicious. The leek and shrimp dumplings are so fresh and delicious."

  Xu Chenghou took a bite out of a leek stuffing and nodded repeatedly.

   "Tell me about how much better the conditions are now than before?

  If this had been put in the past, who would have thought that they would be able to eat dumplings stuffed with leeks, elm and yellow mushrooms during Chinese New Year?

   There is also this shrimp. In the past, at most, there was a whole little shrimp, which would be great.

   Now, who would dare to think about making dumplings with prawns? "Xu Chenghou said with emotion while eating.

   I don’t know why the following chapters can’t be published, and there is no abnormality in the background. Wait a minute, when the editor is back to work, I will ask about the situation.
