"Sister, brother-in-law, let's eat here for lunch. I'll call the kids later." Li Feng has packed up the lunch meal. He can stir-fry vegetables and other things. In rural areas, eating leftovers before the fifth day of the Lunar New Year will not be punished at all.
If you think you are neglecting your guests, you should not use the knife on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Everyone knows these rules, so when visiting relatives, the meat and vegetables are always left over and reheated. As for the vegetables, they are cut and prepared in advance, and stir-fried.
Just a few clicks will do.
There used to be a custom of not making a fire, but nowadays it is rare. Of course, it is possible to not make a fire, just use an induction cooker or something like that. However, it snowed heavily this year and the weather was extremely cold. No one can live without a fire bucket and a brazier.
But it can't be done.
"Haha, no, my mother told me when she came that my sister-in-law would be back for dinner today and asked me to go back and help with the cooking." Li Xia explained with a smile. When Li Feng heard that his sister-in-law was back today, he was full of surprise. The villagers didn't know what was going on in Lishan.
There were not many girls in this generation, and my eldest aunt passed away a few years ago. Now I only have a sister-in-law, Li Cuihuā. Although her name is quite rustic, she is the first girl to come out of the mountains. She was a technical secondary school student in the late 1980s.
But compared to today's college students, they are more arrogant. When they come down, they will be assigned. At that time, junior high school students with good grades were admitted to technical secondary schools, while those with poor grades were admitted to high schools and took the college entrance examination to go to university. This was still the case in rural middle schools until the mid-1990s.
Li Cuihuā was assigned to the city after graduation and has not come back. Now his son is seventeen or eighteen years old. Now Li Cuihuā is a cadre in the county. As for his uncle Li Feng, he has always felt that he is not worthy of his sister-in-law. His uncle is a little bit
Lame, compared to his aunt, his condition is not that good. Although Li Feng doesn't understand, he knows that his aunt lives a very happy life, and Li Feng can see this.
Li Feng went to college and the capital and seldom went home for several years. It has been many years since he saw this aunt, the only elder in the village. He didn't expect to come back this year. You know, it will not be easy to go home even if you are in the county seat this year.
"Sister-in-law, where are they? I'll pick them up."
"No, Ruilong drove back, Xiaobao. I'm leaving first. I'm going home to get ready." My sister-in-law is my uncle's sister, so my first meal when I get home must be at my uncle's house. Li Feng didn't keep his eldest sister and his wife.
Brother-in-law, this man is worried about whether he will invite his sister-in-law to his house for a meal tomorrow. It would be better after the New Year and there will be new dishes to cook, but Li Feng is afraid that his sister-in-law will be busy and will go back in a few days.
You must know that Lijiagang was not wealthy in the past few years. Every year, Li Cuihua went home and brought more or less things that were not available in the village. Did the children see any toffee at that time? Li Feng remembered the first time he ate toffee.
My sister-in-law brought it back. The taste is still fresh in my memory, but it’s a pity that it doesn’t have the same taste as before when I eat it now.
When he was a child, Li Feng wanted and looked forward to two people the most. One was the old shopkeeper who was shaking the rattle, and the other was the beautiful sister-in-law. Unfortunately, my mother said that the old shopkeeper was dead. This stingy old man always lied to him about the bottle of wine.
Give yourself one or two jelly beans. Li Feng was not stupid when he was a child. He pulled and pulled many times. The old man looked at the adults around him and muttered, "It's a loss. It's a loss." He pinched the jelly beans with his dry, yellowish-gray hands.
"One, two, three, oh, there's one more." He quickly squeezed it back and put it into his bottle. Unfortunately, I heard that the former old salesman fell down two years ago and suffered a cerebral thrombosis. His son couldn't feed him, and he ended up hanging with a belt in the winter.
.Li Feng thought that he was quite pitiful. Li Feng shook his head. Why are you thinking about these things?
"Xiaobao, hurry up and pour the tea. Your third aunt and the others are here." Li Feng listened to his mother's loud voice outside the yard. It's hard for emotional women not to cook today. Why don't you just heat up some hot dishes on New Year's Day?
Just eat it. It was a rare morning for the women to have some free time, so they gathered together to fight and talk. Li Feng quickly poured tea and took huā raw melon seeds and candies.
Zhang Lan led a dozen women into the house, and the third aunt pinched a wine-filled chocolate. "Xiaobao, this dark chocolate is just like that kind of chocolate. It's a bit bitter. Hey, it still smells of wine, so it won't go rancid.
Bar."
"Haha, third aunt, this is wine-filled chocolate, it costs dozens of yuan per catty." Li Changlin's wife said with a smile as she took a bite of it and gave it to the baby in her arms.
"Third sister-in-law, how come you haven't eaten it before? These young people in the city love it very much. Many young people buy it as gifts for their romantic partners. There are also rose flowers." The fourth sister-in-law pinched two to taste and said while eating.
"It tastes a bit burnt, a bit like cow dung candy, and the wine tastes quite good." The fourth aunt likes to drink small wine, but she doesn't like chocolate very much. The faint aroma of wine in it suits her taste.
"Fourth Aunt, you are wrong. It's not about dating, it's about giving chocolates on Valentine's Day." Several young women are quite aware of this. Nowadays, young girls and boys in the village are more particular about birthdays and Valentine's Day than people in the city.
.Li Feng felt that people in the city were unwilling to play, so it was romantic for girls and young people in the village to pack up and play together.
"What's Valentine's Day? Aren't you sending purses?" The third aunt was still thinking about what Chinese Valentine's Day was. In the past, it was just sending sachets. Nowadays it's mostly fresh flowers, chocolates, candlelight dinners, and fresh things.
You can order everything, light candles, and finally take a space trip. It’s just that the ticket is a little more expensive, and no one has ever given such a substantial gift to Dali. A few years ago, a ticket only cost more than 20 million U.S. dollars, but now
I heard there is a discount.
Li Feng listened to these people chatting, and they were all talking about women. Li Feng couldn't stand it anymore. Li Feng left the yard and went for a walk in the village.
"Xiaobao, why didn't you go play cards?" Li Feng took out his bag of Zhonghua, opened it, smoked one and handed it to Uncle Liu. "Uncle Liu smokes, but the two kids don't have much time to do things."
"Hey, Zhonghua, you kid really made a lot of money." Uncle Liu put the cigarette to his nose, smelled it, and said yes.
"Where are they? I couldn't bear to part with these as a gift. For Uncle Six, why didn't I see Tingting? Didn't Xiaocan say that he was back and went to the village to play?" Li Feng asked casually, and Li Tingting came back and asked her.
I haven't seen her a few times. When she was a child, this little girl with a runny nose followed her around and couldn't get rid of others. Now she doesn't come out to walk around and visit her house.
"This girl ran back to town in the morning, saying she was sending a message to her classmates. What, you haven't seen her back for several hours. I don't think I can buy this computer. They all seem to be obsessed with it." Uncle Liu mentioned this.
I am so annoyed that my daughter is still thinking about buying her a laptop next year. It is indispensable for everyone to go to college.
"Uncle Liu, I can't say whether this computer is good or bad. Please tell me more. Who doesn't have a computer now? Every household in the city has several. The little kid has to get a computer when he is in second grade. It's okay. Tingting, please tell me more. Come on
Since I have a lot of time in college, I should buy one." Li Feng is not opposed to this. Of course, high school students still focus on studying, and there will be more time for fun.
"I'm not reluctant to give up this little money, but look at this girl, she is using the computer every day. You said she was going out to pay New Year greetings, and you said she hadn't seen anything for a long time. Isn't that irritating?" Uncle Six said, getting angry.
, Li Feng persuaded him for a while, and Uncle Liu lost his temper. "You see, Gu Gu is talking, come and have a cup of milk tea." Uncle Liu poured a cup of milk tea and brought it over. "This thing is very hot to drink, Xiao Can does it every day
Drink a lot, Xiaobao, there is no harm in it." Uncle Liu really doesn't understand this. In fact, there is no harm in it, but drinking too much of anything is not good. Milk tea has too much sugar, and this thing is
Drinking two cups a week is not a big problem, but drinking too much is really not good for your body.
"Really. This kid didn't listen to me when I told him not to drink so much. I came back today and talked about it properly." Uncle Liu said that he was serious.
"It's too cold here. It's okay to drink a little, but you can't drink too much. After all, the sugar here and some preservatives are still harmful to the body. Drinking less won't cause any harm." Li Feng thought about how many people in his family are still doing well.
I love drinking this, especially since I come here to buy it every day. I might as well buy a box of it myself.
"Uncle Six, do you have any good milk tea here? Give me two boxes." Li Feng took out a hundred dollars and Li Fuguang nodded. "I just bought a few boxes two days ago. What famous brands are they? Take a look. I
I'll give you the cost price." When Li Feng looked at Leyou, he thought it was a big brand. Don't worry. Li Feng took the money and carried the milk tea towards Taolin's small yard. He originally thought that a few aunts would be there, so he bought an extra box. He didn't think about it.
When he returned to the yard, he had already left. He had just spoken at Uncle Liu's house and didn't pay attention.
"Wow, sister Mengmeng, little cousin Lingdang, brother, come quickly. Dad has bought a lot of milk tea. Dad, baby, help you get it." The baby's big eyes grew to the milk tea box, and Li Feng patted it.
Little girl. "Hold it." "Uncle, Mengmeng will help you get this."
Li Feng returned to the house and saw that the big bowl was full of fish dumplings. Li Feng was stunned. What's going on? "Baby, Qi Qi, come here. Dad asked you, what's going on? Why is it all fish?"
There are hundreds of kinds of rice, but why do they all turn into fish dumplings?
"Oh, the baby was given to the old lady, eldest grandpa's house, third grandpa, fourth grandpa, many, many grandpas, and uncle's house as dad said. But they only gave so many fish. Dad, why are the grandpas so stingy?
"Yeah." Li Feng listened to his daughter and looked at the fish dumplings. There were silver carp, grass carp, and carp. The colors were different. Although they were all fish dumplings, they were fried differently.
"Haha, this isn't grandpa being stingy. You have to know that Bao Bao and Qi Qi have to finish everything in the bowl. Do you think so many fish are enough to eat?" Li Feng didn't expect that they all have the same thing now. This one is much simpler. In the past
There was an a la carte, a half piece of steamed bun, a piece of glutinous rice cake, some chicken feet and everything. In the end, I made a big stew. Not to mention the taste, I didn’t even have an appetite when I looked at it. It was better this time.
They are all fish pieces, add some vegetables and tofu starch to make a roasted fish, but this one is a bit out of shape.
"Baby, do you want to finish it all?" "Dad, do you really finish it?" "Of course, after finishing the lunch today, there won't be any leftover, you know." Li Feng looked at the baby with a sad smile, and he was happy. "Baby.
, Grandpas, are you still stingy?" "Well, you are not stingy anymore." The baby lowered his head. With such a big bowl, this girl was still thinking about drinking milk tea, but looking at the big bowl of fish, she pouted. (To be finished.
