Liu Lang's grandfather took all the books he had learned when he was in school to Liu Lang, all of which were professional chemical books, which were very difficult for Liu Lang to understand, but he was also idle, and he also understood the simple chemical industry for more than a month, and what interested Liu Lang the most was that there were several Russian tutorials in these books, and mastering a foreign language became an important job for him during this time.

Maybe this is the benefit of being a reborn, Liu Lang's memory has almost reached the level of perversion, basically he can completely remember the book after reading it once, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he will never forget it.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of the year, Liu Lang's Russian has improved by leaps and bounds in a few months, although Liu Lang does not know how many levels his Russian level can reach, but he is estimated to be able to basically have some simple conversations with Russians.

"Alas, I'm still too young!"

When people are over thirty years old, they will sigh that their pressure is too great, and they often envy those carefree children, but now, Liu Lang happens to be the opposite, hoping that he will grow up quickly, there are too many opportunities in this era, and he can make a lot of money casually, but he is not even a year old, and a child who is not yet one year old can not always show up and run to the society to turn over the clouds, now what he can do is to wait slowly, and wait for himself to be older, even if it is four or five years old.

At the end of the year in a blink of an eye, every household began to prepare for the New Year's goods, Liu Lang's parents and grandfather bought more than a dozen catties of pork, five catties of eggs and a lot of flour and rice, in addition to apples, Pastries and so on, and bought a few firecrackers, Liu Lang's uncle was happy to see these foods, and what excited him the most was the firecrackers, he walked around in front of these firecrackers every day, and unloaded a few scattered firecrackers while the adults were not paying attention, and the low temperature of minus 20 degrees outside couldn't stop the enthusiasm of these wild children, even if their faces and hands were frozen, they didn't care.

In this era, although food is scarce, eating a meal of dumplings is not easy, but the taste of the year is not comparable after twenty or thirty years, every family has worked hard for a year, just waiting for the New Year to eat a delicious meal, there is still a week before the Chinese New Year's Eve, the sauerkraut in the sauerkraut tank was fished out, Liu Lang's mother and grandmother chopped sauerkraut and pork and began to make dumplings, hundreds of dumplings were put on the curtain and frozen outside, and dozens of bean bags were also frozen to kill people.

In addition to making dumplings, the family also bought two chickens and two fish, and it can be said that such a meal can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year.

On the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family gathered, the mother and grandmother cooked, the others sat on the hot kang and played poker, and Liu Lang went to the outhouse to watch his mother and grandmother cook on the fire.

I saw my mother dig out a large piece of milky white meat oil with a spoon in a small jar, this is really meat oil, it is completely boiled out of pig fat, there is no oil and water in the stomach of people in this era, in a few decades, a person will only buy lean meat when he goes to buy pork, but now, when he goes to buy pork, no one likes lean meat, and he hopes that the waiter in the grocery store will cut more fat, the more the better, and it is best to be all fat.

After buying these fats and putting them in a hot pot after buying them, they will be roasted out of the oil at a blazing temperature in a short time, and people will collect the yellow-orange-orange lard, and when the temperature drops, the lard will become a milky white object like jelly, and every time they cook, they will dig out a spoonful, and the dish will be fragrant and delicious.

After twenty or thirty years, I am afraid that no one will eat this practice, but in this era when there is no oil and water in everyone's stomach, a dish without meat and oil is not called a dish.

Now it's the Chinese New Year, Liu Lang's mother deliberately dug a few more spoonfuls of meat oil and put it in the pot, and after a while, the milky white hard lumps turned into a yellow-orange-orange liquid, exuding a rich meat aroma, and then threw the sauerkraut and chicken into the pot, and then waited for the pot to come out of the pot after adding a large grain of salt to the lid.

The women of every household are cooking, the men are playing poker at home, and the children are running outside to the yard, you put a firecracker and I throw two two kicks, the sound of firecrackers in the thunderbolt bar is mixed with the sound of children's frolic, and the atmosphere of the New Year is constantly warm.

As for the Spring Festival Gala, it only appeared in 1983, not to mention that there is no TV set at home now, only a box-like radio, and the radio plays the New Year songs of the radio station.

At midnight, the family gathered around the table, eating dumplings and bean buns that had just come out of the pot, and the men were still drinking loose liquor, and Liu Lang's grandfather took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to Liu Lang.

"Eldest grandson, this is the New Year's money for you!"

Grandpa, who was already a little drunk, said.

"Thank you, grandpa!"

Liu Lang took the money.

"Son, I'll keep it for you and keep it for you to go to college. ”

The father took the money from Liu Lang's hand, and his face was also drunk at this time.

"Well, well.........!"

Liu Lang pursed his lips, in his memory, since he was a child, he never stayed in his hands for a minute when he was a child.

"Thunderbolt!"

The sound of firecrackers outside has been resounding, especially the two kicks, flying high into the sky with a deafening sound, Liu Lang experienced the Spring Festival for the first time in his life There is no Spring Festival Gala and no fireworks in the sky, but this strong family atmosphere is destined to make him unforgettable for the rest of his life.

Although I slept very late on the night of the Thirty Years, Liu Lang's parents still got up very early on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and after washing up and having breakfast, Liu Lang's mother looked in the mirror and smeared some friendship brand alabaster, which is the only cosmetics in this era, the green iron lid and the milky white porcelain bottle, after opening, it will waft out a rich fragrance, dip some with your hands and apply it on your face or hands, which has the effect of antifreeze lubrication and can also play the role of perfume, which can be described as a paste for two purposes.

Liu Lang's mother is now just a twenty-eight-year-old young woman, beauty is the nature of any woman, but because Liu Lang's mother works in a machine tool factory, all day long is in contact with all kinds of running machines, so she usually does not wipe, now the New Year holiday for three days, every day she will dress up in front of the mirror, even if this process is only a minute or two of time, compared to the woman twenty years later, this time is not enough time to wash her face, but Liu Lang's mother still looked in the mirror and patted her face with satisfaction。

The first day of the Lunar New Year is the day when she has to go back to her parents' home.
