Meat, this is something I haven’t eaten in a long time.
When the meat was being cooked in the pot, Li Ran took a small stool and sat on the edge of the pot to smell it. The little thing smelled the aroma of the meat and kept wiping his saliva.
When it was time to finish work, Li Hong brought some whole grains home. When she arrived at the door, she shouted excitedly: "Mom! Today's work, the brigade distributed cornmeal, look..."
Li Hong was very happy because she brought back ten pounds of cornmeal!
But as soon as she entered the yard, Li Hong smelled the aroma of meat!
"Meat?!" Li Hong walked quickly into the house suspiciously. After entering the house, she found Li Mo drinking water, Li Ran sitting in front of the stove waiting for meat, and Zhang Ruyi washing rice for cooking.
"Mom! Are you...eating meat today?"
Dreaming, right?
Li Hong thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it in her heart.
"Xiao Mo has gained a lot today. He brought back some good things. Let's eat braised pork tonight."
Braised pork?!
Li Hong feels like she hasn’t eaten this thing for a long time, even during the Chinese New Year!
Li Hong sat down and put her pocket on the table. Li Mo smiled and said, "Sister, what good things did you bring back?"
"Cornmeal...isn't as good as yours."
"That's not necessarily true. You can't eat refined grains every day." After hearing Li Hong bring back something, Zhang Ruyi came over excitedly and took away the cornmeal.
Li Hong was stunned when she heard her mother's words.
flour and rice?!
When can we eat refined grains at home? Aren’t the refined grains replaced by coarse grains every year to make ends meet?
The annual rations are deducted by grandma, and she mainly deducts fine grains for the third uncle to eat. It can be said that the third uncle has not eaten many meals of coarse grains since he was a child. He basically eats the whole family's fine grains, and
Li Hong can count on her fingers the number of refined grains she has eaten since childhood.
Unexpectedly, one day his family would be able to eat fine grains. Li Hong pinched himself secretly.
pain--
It doesn’t look like a dream!
Not long after, Li Xin and Li Yue were relieved. Smelling the smell of meat, Li Yue asked excitedly: "Mom! What did you cook at home that smells so good?"
"Braised pork, your brother had a good harvest today, so he brought it back." Zhang Ruyi was really happy today, and she didn't speak to Li Yue as harshly as usual.
Li Xin curled her lips and asked with some displeasure: "How can I still afford meat at this time?"
"If you like to eat, go away! Who forced you to eat?" Seeing Li Xin, Zhang Ruyi was still as strong as before. She really didn't like this daughter with all her heart. She even doubted who raised this girl.
of.
The twins didn't dare to talk back. They looked at Li Mo, but Li Mo didn't even look at them. Li Hong was still in the shock of eating meat.
The two of them found that no one at home paid any attention to them, and they seemed to be isolated by this family.
Who cares about eating it?
Li Xin said something unhappily, Zhang Ruyi smiled slightly, she opened her noodle bag and said, "Okay, just in time your eldest sister brought back the noodles, I will steam steamed buns for you two. Anyway, it's not rare!"
Although there were still quarrels and bickering at home, the atmosphere was obviously different from yesterday.
Li Fuguo went to borrow money after work today, but to no avail. He went home dejected, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he smelled the smell of meat!
Li Fuguo rushed in quickly,
When I found that the children were all seated, I waited for him to come back and start eating!
"came back!"
It was rare that Zhang Ruyi actually spoke to herself today? And she even had a smile on her face.
"Where do these...things come from?" Li Fuguo looked at the bowls of white rice on the table suspiciously. Of course, these have all been divided, but the difference is that today Li Ran's rice is not the least.
, the least are those of Li Xin and Li Yue.
"I went to the geological team cafeteria to change. I was very lucky today!" Li Mo said with a smile. Li Fuguo nodded a little disappointed. He hummed and sat down. When he sat down, the children were staring at him.
.
Xiao Liran kept swallowing, and Li Fuguo looked at everyone: "What are you looking at me for? Eat!"
When Li Fuguo said it, everyone eagerly picked up their chopsticks, but no one dared to add food. Li Mo didn't care so much, went up and picked up a piece of meat and gave it to Li Ran and said, "It's delicious."
Then, he added another piece to his mother and said, "Mom! You eat it too."
Finally, Li Mo added a piece to Li Hong and said, "Sister, eat more. You will be full after a day's work."
Li Mo served food to others, but he didn't eat it himself because there wasn't much meat. With so many people having just one bowl of meat, who could eat enough?
Li Fuguo felt a little more emotional when he saw his son serving food to others but not eating it himself.
The child has grown up.
But the reason why he grew up makes the father feel heartbroken.
It’s all my own fault
It’s all my fault for being so cowardly!
"Dad, eat meat. You can only work when you are full."
Li Mo persuaded his father to eat meat. Li Fuguo, an honest man, felt hot in his eye sockets, and his nose suddenly turned acidic. He couldn't hold it back, and tears fell down.
How great would it be if we could do this every day?
Isn't this kind of life what he dreams of?
The bowl of braised pork on the table is first boiled in cold water, and star anise and Sichuan peppercorns are added. After cooking, the sugar is burned with oil until it becomes syrupy, then the meat and soy sauce are added and stir-fried, and finally a small amount of water is added. The attractive aroma makes
People want to eat it when they smell it. Li Fuguo has not eaten this thing for a long time. When he suddenly eats a piece, he is full of excitement and the smile on the corner of his mouth is uncontrollable.
White rice
braised pork
He never dreamed that he could live such a life!
The whole family was happy after eating the same meal. After eating, everyone could still chat, instead of being as lifeless as before.
But Li Mo basically ate rice. He mainly served meat to Li Hong and Li Ran, and ate two pieces himself.
Of course, Li Mo is not afraid of going hungry. There is a supermarket, so what is he afraid of?
While everyone was chatting, they heard someone knocking on the door eagerly outside.
Li Fuguo stood up suspiciously. He went to open the door and asked curiously: "The second brother is here? What's the matter?"
"What's going on! Where's that little bastard Li Mo! Let him come out!" Li Qingmin's face turned purple with anger. Li Fuguo didn't know what happened. He asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Brother, how did you teach your son? Our Li He is so scared at home now that he says your Li Mo's ghost has come to see him!"
"Li Mo!!" Upon hearing his second brother's words, Li Fuguo yelled angrily.
Li Mo can do this
!
How can he, his father, not know about his own son?
When Li Mo heard his father calling him, he slowly walked out of the house and said, "What's the matter, dad?"
"Let me ask you! What's going on with Li He?"
"What's going on?" Li Mo asked with a surprised look on his face.
Upon hearing this, Li Qingmin shouted at the top of his lungs: "Stop pretending! Are you pretending to be a ghost to scare Li He!"
"I'm pretending to be a ghost? Don't be ridiculous. How can I have time today? Am I free? Do you think our family is your family? You eat our family's food every day, but you don't have to worry, our family has no food!
"
"I still have time to pretend to be a ghost and tease your son? Why do I have so much free time?"
Li Mo muttered and stood behind his father.
Li Fuguo thought about it. His son had made such a great contribution today. There was no way he would have time to pretend to be a ghost and scare Li He. It was more than a hundred miles of mountain road back and forth from Hejian Township!
"And Second Uncle, I haven't found you yet! How do you think your Li He was pushed down the mountain yesterday?"
"I'm not dead, what if I am? He is a murderer! I think he has something in his heart!"
"Don't do anything bad! Don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door!"
Li Mo responded with a barrage of sarcasm, which left Li Qingmin speechless.
Li Fuguo immediately became angry when he heard this. He frowned and said, "Li He pushed you?"
"It's not bad. If I hadn't hung on a branch, I would have fallen to death right now!" Li Mo hugged his shoulders, and Li Fuguo saw that his son was not lying.
He looked at Li Qingmin and said angrily: "Second brother, second brother, even if your brother is honest, he can't bully him like this, right?"
"I'm telling you today, my son is not in trouble. If he is, I will kill both your family and his family!"
Li Fuguo's performance really surprised Li Mo.
He really didn't know that his status in his father's heart was so high.
"If you have the ability to say this, tell your mother, what's the point of telling me!" Li Qingmin replied disdainfully, Li Fuguo grabbed him by the collar, and then he roared angrily: "Don't take it from me!"
It’s my mother’s fault. I respect her because she gave birth to me. It’s okay for him to bully me! Even if he harms my son’s life, even if it’s my mother, I won’t let her go!”
"Your son has done something wrong, and he deserves it! My Li Mo was fine yesterday, but if anything happens, I will kill your Li He first, believe it or not!"
Hearing that his son was pushed down from the mountain yesterday, Li Fuguo couldn't bear anything!
However, Li Mo discovered that Honest Man's explosion was really violent, which even shocked Li Mo.
Little did he know that today's meal had completely changed his position in his father's heart. Although Li Fuguo didn't know it himself, when he really heard such things, he couldn't control it at all. The anger he had been feeling all these years suddenly disappeared.
broke out.
Li Qingmin was so frightened that he pushed Li Fuguo away. He pointed at Li Fuguo and said, "Wait for me until I go to my mother to complain!"
"Go away!! If you dare to come again, I will break your legs!" Li Fuguo roared like a violent beast. Li Mo quickly comforted his father and said: "Dad, don't be angry. You can live your own life."
.Come back and forth, let’s drink some water and chat.”
Li Mo quickly tried to persuade his father, but he became more convinced of an idea in his mind.
