Chapter 401: Auspicious Character
Chapter 401: Auspicious Characters (Page 1/1)
This year's temple fair in Huishui Village is indeed very beautiful, and it has been circulated on the Internet to a certain extent, and the online nomads who usually pay attention to Zhangjiazhai have learned about the real scene of the temple fair on their side through video updates on Weibo and other online platforms.
Now, there are two things that everyone pays the most attention to: going up the knife mountain and going down to the sea of fire.
Not to mention going to the knife mountain, only professionals can play, after all, it is dancing on the tip of the knife, which is very dangerous. On the Internet, netizens from all walks of life began to discuss the reason why they would not cut their feet.
It is even more interesting to go into the sea of fire, and it is said that the whole people can participate. In the evening, they would make a bonfire, leaving behind a pile of red coals.
I heard that it was necessary to pave a road for people to walk on the coals.
After the baptism of coals, the dirt, sickness, misfortune, etc., will be carried away by the fire.
So, here comes the problem again. If a person steps on a charcoal of fire, he will not burn his feet? This has puzzled many people, and even provoked some academic tyrants to use all kinds of scientific knowledge to explain this strange phenomenon.
At noon, Huishui Village will set up a banquet in the field to entertain all the guests, whether it is people from Zhangjiazhai or tourists from afar, and they can sit and eat when they find a vacant seat.
Of course, the meals were not very rich and a bit simple.
Actually, this meal was supposed to be a fasting meal. However, it later evolved into meat, that is, you can't drink alcohol. Dinner tables, benches, chopsticks, etc., were all moved from the homes of the villagers.
"This meeting is kind of interesting. Chen Baoli and they laughed.
It's all too rare to see almost the whole village sitting and eating together as it is now. Even in places like Huishui Village, it is only once every three years.
After all, there are usually red and white things in the village, and it is rare to say that the whole village is really present.
"There is no food, eat well, and the food is enough. "The village chief of Huishui Village took the village cadres to walk around table by table, and the etiquette should be in place. Sometimes, rural people are actually more polite.
Zhang Fan was invited to the two or three VIP tables in front of him, and the people sitting on them were all heavyweights, all of whom were very old, and Zhang Fan seemed a little abrupt.
There is an old man whose teeth are about to fall out, but his face is full of satisfaction with life.
At the dinner table, the most eye-catching thing is a dish of roast pork, which exudes its fragrance throughout the audience. Not to mention the villagers, who are rural people, even tourists who are accustomed to eating food, they all feel that they have all the color, flavor and taste.
This dish, at the beginning, was specially pickled to take care of the elderly with bad teeth.
As early as more than 100 years ago, when the village was performing sacrifices, everyone was gathered in the ancestral hall to eat together. Many elderly people have bad teeth and can't bite the food, so the chef uses the method of steaming or roasting the pork to handle the pork. When the whole pig is served, the young offspring will pick up a large piece of semi-fat and lean pork and put it in the mouth of the old man, which will melt in the mouth, fragrant and crispy.
Actually, it's not quite right to say roast pig.
In the process, steaming is used, the whole pig is steamed, and when it is served, it is directly cut into pieces, cut into slices, and put on a plate.
It seems that Huishui Village has also made a bloody investment.
As far as Zhang Fan knows, the cost of this dish is not low.
The ingredients of this dish are a whole pig weighing about 40-50 kilograms, which is marinated for 6 hours with salt, sugar, wine, five-spice powder, sand ginger powder and star anise, and then the whole pig is steamed or roasted at one time, and the cost and labor cost are not low.
Zhang Fan clipped a piece to the old man next to him who was about to lose his teeth: "Old man, eat more." ”
"Brother Housheng, you eat!" The old man happily accepted Zhang Fan's kindness.
This old man's brain is a little confused, and it is a little difficult to remember things, and he didn't recognize a few people at the dinner table at all, not to mention that Zhang Fan is only from another village?
He is a respected old man in Huishui Village, who is over 90 years old. It can be said that he is a treasure of Huishui Village and the mascot of Huishui Village.
Today, on this good day, he must be invited to come out and sit down.
A middle-aged village cadre sandwiched another piece of stuffed tofu for the old man: "Fifth uncle and father-in-law, I am a big river! The Bodhisattva blesses you with a long life." ”
Stuffed tofu is a traditional Chinese dish, which is divided into Hakka stuffed tofu and Ningyuan stuffed tofu.
It is made from tofu, green onions, pork, etc., and has a light taste, making it one of the most representative dishes of the local food culture.
And their stuffed tofu in Huangshi Town belongs to the Hakka family and is very popular. The formation of the flavor of Hakka cuisine is inseparable from the formation of the Hakka people, such as Hakka dialect retains the ancient charm of Zhongzhou, Hakka cuisine also retains the characteristics of traditional life customs of Zhongzhou.
Legend has it that a long time ago, a family at the foot of the Nine Doubts Mountain, due to the discord between their brothers, when they went out to make a living, one went to the north and the other went south, but they all respected their mothers very much, and went out at the beginning of each year, and when it came to the spring, they rushed back to reunite with their mothers. One year, the elder brother bought back pork, the younger brother brought back fried tofu, and the ingenious mother made the meat and tofu into a fragrant and delicious meat-stuffed tofu ball.
This dish, which is also one of the dishes that the elderly like, is not difficult to eat.
The old man was still a little behind his ears, and he couldn't hear very clearly, and while eating, he replied loudly: "Who? Dashi? Well, I remember you, when you were a child, the three brothers took turns to wear a pair of pants......
"Ahem!"
As soon as these words came out, the people at the surrounding tables burst into laughter.
Just now, the village cadre smiled bitterly, and the uncle was really not talking about their brothers, but their fathers. When he was a child, life was relatively difficult, living materials were very scarce, he couldn't eat enough, and he was even less particular about clothing.
His father had three brothers, and there was only one pair of thick trousers in the house, which he wore when he wanted to go out.
This matter has always been ridiculed, and today it was said in public by my uncle, where is this?
However, his parents have passed away and he has not been able to live as long as his uncle.
The village cadre also introduced loudly: "Fifth Uncle and Father-in-law, do you know who he is? In the future, we will have to rely on him to take care of our village for eating and drinking porridge." ”
The old man glanced at Zhang Fan a few times, nodded with a smile, and said loudly: "I know, the big man of the Wang Zhuzi family at the head of the village." ”
After speaking, he pressed his hand on Zhang Fan's shoulder: "Big boy, you're so tall, what are you reading?"
Seeing this, the people at the table burst out laughing again.
The village cadre was about to explain clearly, but Zhang Fan waved his hand: "Uncle Chen, admit your mistakes! It's okay! The situation in your village, when I was walking around just now, I also understood a little bit, and I will talk about it later, don't worry." ”
When the people of Huishui Village who were present heard this, their faces were obviously happy.
