Jiang Yuan’s army pot was made casually, basically putting whatever was in the refrigerator. Even so, when it was served to the two Dobermans, they were still so excited that they wanted to jump and eat it.
Jiang Yuan scooped out a portion for himself, and shared some with his father and uncle Qiang, saying: "Try it, dogs like it."
Jiang Fuzhen glanced at Jiang Yuan: "You can think about it before you speak."
Jiang Yuan chuckled twice and encouraged: "It should be delicious, dad, try it."
When it comes to eating, Jiang Fuzhen has actually become less enthusiastic about it in recent years. Now he prefers to cook it and watch others eat it. As for himself, he just eats a little casually. Big fish and meat are more important.
A kind of spiritual enjoyment that fills the spiritual emptiness that once existed.
However, the dog rice that Jiang Yuan made today did have an alluring aroma, even though it was all the food he had left over from the past two days...
"Okay, let's eat something. We're all tired." Jiang Fuzhen asked Uncle Qiang to come and eat together.
The three people got into a posture, sat on the table, and each took a tachyon to taste.
The hot army pot contains more than ten kinds of food, which have been carefully cooked before and the taste is really good.
Jiang Fuzhen kept nodding while eating: "It tastes much better than the food I heated. You must have mastered your cooking skills. Life in the police force is not easy."
These words, in two or three sentences, turned to Jiang Yuan's life.
Jiang Yuan's mind couldn't help but think of the red eggs cooked by his master Wu Jun and the fat intestines and pork belly chicken from Longli County. He couldn't help but said: "Life is okay, but I'm quite busy. Others, like when I was on a business trip recently, the other party entertained me."
They are all very good and usually have local specialties.”
"It's best to cook your own food. Didn't you buy a house? If it's too far away, just buy a new one. You can go back to cook at noon. If you find it troublesome, just hire someone to cook at least one meal. In this way, you can
You can only cook the leftovers later." Jiang Fuzhen said as he glanced at the two Dobermans, who had already licked the basins clean: "Dogs really love to eat the food you cook."
Uncle Qiang, who was savoring the delicious food, raised his head sensitively.
Jiang Yuan coughed twice and said: "Actually, the army pot I made is not authentic. I will make something else later."
Father Jiang smiled: "How can it be considered authentic if you cook a pot of leftovers?"
Uncle Qiang knew about the authentic army pot, and said in a low voice: "According to local tradition, it should be cooked with the dog, so it is considered authentic."
The two Doberman's ears stood up straight.
…
the next day.
Jiang Yuan spent the whole day wandering around the community and crossing the fire.
The fire can be big or small. For small fires, just put an alcohol lamp directly and cover it with a windproof cover so that even small children can step over it. For large fires, pile them with wood, but not too high.
It is so high that when it burns, it will reach half a person's height. There is some fuel beside it. If anyone thinks the fire is not enough, just put up two more.
The largest bonfire will not be lit until after eight o'clock in the evening, and everyone can line up to have a bonfire by then.
This is also because Jiangcun's current conditions are good. In previous years, it would have been pretty cool to have two or three bonfires lit. Even so, the adults would have to prepare for a long time.
It's easy now. You can buy truckloads of firewood, and the price is not expensive. If you feel that domestic forests should be protected, you can also buy imported goods. Burning a fire all night is not worth the price of a big lobster.
The happiness it brings is far greater than this.
Especially at the end of the cold season, everyone always feels like they can't stretch their muscles and bones. Even if it's warm as spring indoors, you have to wear thick clothes when you go out, and you can do less exercise. Many people stay for long periods of time.
It all feels like shrinking.
The bonfire was lit, the crowd gathered, and they started running to cross the fire. The three superpositions made everyone feel warmer.
Towards the end of the fire, even the village dogs joined in.
Father Jiang Fuzhen also enjoyed the game very much and couldn't help but sigh: "When we were young, it would be great if we had such strong soldiers and horses, but it's a pity that we can't use them now..."
He looked at the young people in the village wearing Supreme, Burberry, and LV, and felt quite regretful.
Uncle Qiang also said: "It's true. If we had so many big and tall people at that time, we would not be able to snatch eight or ten Bodhisattvas every year. The next year we would grab water and carry the Bodhisattva out, and everyone would have to kneel."
Jiang Fuzhen couldn't help laughing when he thought of those scenes.
Jiang Yuan knew that they were talking about grabbing the Bodhisattva in front of the wandering god. Just tonight, after stepping across the fire, everyone would pick up poles and stools and go to the Tutu Temple to welcome the Bodhisattva. The few in front of them
The whole village will also go to welcome him. For this reason, everyone will start a battle to fight for it, and even a few heads will be broken.
The Bodhisattvas snatched back will be carried at the front when the gods are wandering tomorrow. The more Bodhisattvas carried, the more prosperous they are. Moreover, when farming begins in the next two months and water is needed, they will be carried
When you come out of a village with many Bodhisattvas, you can theoretically use water first - when the water source is not too tight, everyone will basically follow this principle. The advantage is that you don't have to fight to the death when fighting for water.
After all, fighting for the Bodhisattva and the Wandering God is a festival. Everyone will have some sense of restraint and not go too far. Fighting for water is a real stakeholder. If there is no priority to fight for the Bodhisattva, the order of water use will be directly determined by the fighting. That is true.
People will die, even every year.
Now there is no need to fight for water, and the fight for the Bodhisattva has become a pure fun parade. Jiangcun has accumulated a large number of strong young people over the years, and they no longer need to show off their... soft bones.
Jiang Yuan didn't even go to the scene where the Bodhisattva was being robbed. He was tall and could easily become the target of fire. A lump of earth suddenly flew over and broke the head even if it couldn't kill him. It was really unnecessary.
The commotion lasted until two or three in the morning that night.
Jiang Yuan also went to the monitoring room to take a look. There was nothing unusual, so he went home silently and went to sleep.
The security company of Jiangcun Community has been quietly established. Currently, 24 real security guards have been recruited, working in two shifts, and with the cooperation of the monitoring system, safety has been greatly improved. Things like leaving an electric car at the door have basically been solved.
It is eliminated.
Early the next morning, everyone got dressed at home and started queuing downstairs.
Those who are willing to follow tradition will wear some ancient costumes at this time. Most of them are modified costumes. Those who are more sophisticated can use embroidery. There are also those who wear battle armor, lion dance costumes, and Hanfu. The most common ones are
Wearing the clothes of gods or bodhisattvas is also called wandering gods.
There are not many requirements in Jiangcun. Anyway, they are all handed down in the village, up to four generations at most. In fact, the rules spoken by people in their sixties and seventies are basically considered traditional. People think
Where to change, future generations can't tell you what to do.
Even some people who are not willing to participate in the activities, or have other ideas, can just wear their own clothes and wander around today, and no one will say anything.
Only those who carry the Bodhisattva will be carefully selected by the organizers, and only villagers who are neatly dressed and clean are allowed to carry them.
Jiang Yuan occupied the C position behind the Bodhisattva and was responsible for resisting a flag. The flag was red and had nothing written on it. He just held the flag in all its glory.
Wandering has always been a mostly fun activity, but now that conditions have improved, it is more difficult for everyone to get together. Instead, such a traditional activity will give everyone a reason to take a break from busy work, study, travel, eating, drinking, and shopping.
Get out of the way.
Jiang Yuan waved the red flag and followed the crowd around the Jiangcun community, reaching every corner, setting off cannons, lighting bonfires, dancing lions, singing operas, and shouting slogans. Then he started from Jiangcun and returned to Laojiang Village for a tour.
Then they passed by the ancestral hall with the plaques of the second-class meritorious officials and the first-class meritorious officials, sang and worshiped, went to the Tutu Temple to return the Bodhisattvas to their places, and then wandered back to the Jiangcun community, set up a banquet, and used the pottery wheel to
Hungry, eat a lot.
It's time for Jiangfu Town to show its talents again.
For Jiang Fuzhen now, what he fears most is that no one will come to eat the food he made, but if he is asked to go out and open a charity, he cannot stand the constraints of asking for perfection.
The banquet in the village is the best. Jiangfu Town tried its best to show off its skills. Everyone ate with open stomachs, which made it even more enjoyable.
At this time, cousin Jiang Qianwen ran to Jiang Yuan and whispered: "Brother, help me check out some blind dates."
Jiang Yuan slowly put down the short ribs in his hand and asked: "How many?"
"Let's see one first." Jiang Qianwen pulled Jiang Yuan away.
After a while, the two of them stood by the wall, tilted their heads, and saw a boy in a white shirt, who looked like he was in his early twenties, playing with his mobile phone boredly.
"This is the one with the best conditions. What do you think?" Jiang Qianwen asked enthusiastically.
She is only in her early 20s, and her family is anxious to find a blind date. Not only is she not angry, but she is also a little happy. She is just having fun anyway.
"You have to tell me the other party's information first." Jiang Yuan raised the telescope and looked at it. The telescope was given by Jiang Qianwen, which was unexpected.
Jiang Qianwen recalled, "Let's say he was 26 years old, 180, he opened a company outside or something..."
"My age was falsified, I started at 28. My height was falsified, it should be 172 centimeters. I wore height-increasing shoes, so now I am 177. With the addition of hair, I falsely reported it to be 180. If he opened a company... I'm not sure if he opened a company."
, you can check this on your mobile phone, but he should be mainly engaged in manual work, and the calluses on his hands have grown. Of course, it may be a manual company..." Jiang Yuan put down the telescope and looked at Jiang Qianwen.
Not only was there no disappointment on Jiang Qianwen's face, she actually laughed happily.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan was surprised.
"In this case, no matter how we get along, it will only be him who is wrong." Jiang Qianwen looked very satisfied.
Jiang Yuan thought deeply about the logic and was not sure whether the Jiang family's genes were passed down to Jiang Qianwen.
