Chapter 24: Returning Home

After almost 3 hours of taking the bus, I finally arrived at the bus terminal. Looking at this familiar city and listening to the familiar local sound, I feel much younger again. When I got out of the bus station, I saw my dad waiting across the station. I quickly looked at the cars on the left and right, then walked over, suddenly hugged my dad and said, "Dad, I'm back, I've been waiting for a long time." ”

My dad was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, I just arrived not long ago." By the way, there is no food at home, and your mother said let's buy some food and go back. Let's get in the car first, let's go buy some food, and by the way, buy some meat. ”

"Okay" My dad was already sitting in the car, so I quickly sat on it, and then hugged my dad tightly behind him. The moment I put my arms around my dad's waist, I knew that my dad had lost weight again, and I felt like my dad was going to run out of meat.

I feel that my picky eating problem is definitely inherited from my dad, my dad is a favorite eater, eat more, don't move a bite if he doesn't like to eat, if he feels that it doesn't meet the taste, he will never eat again after moving. My mom wanted my dad to eat more, but she didn't learn much about new dishes. But my dad didn't give face, and in the end, my mother ate it by herself, and over time, my mother had no motivation to make new dishes.

"I said Dad, you seem to have lost weight again, haven't you eaten well?" After saying it, it felt like he was talking about a child younger than himself. However, it is said that old children, the older people are, the more they look like children.

"What's the matter, it's been a little heavier lately. Your mom has recently learned a few more dishes, and she feels good about eating, so go home and ask your mom to cook them for you. Dad said happily.

"Okay, but I'm not idle outside, and I've read some recipes, and I'll make them for you two elders to eat one day." Definitely let you eat this meal and want to eat the next meal. I bragged to myself.

"Okay," Dad said and didn't speak again.

After about 10 minutes of cycling, we arrived at the wet market. I went in with my dad, and since he was a regular customer here, everyone knew each other. The owners of the vegetable market all asked my father, this is your daughter, she is really beautiful. And my dad didn't know how to be modest at all, but answered the other party even more exaggeratedly, and I was embarrassed. It took nearly an hour for us to finally buy everything, and my dad couldn't stop talking. Alas, the old man's idea is as simple as that, he wants his children to be praised by others. Isn't there an old saying that "the crops are the good of others, and the children are their own good".

After buying vegetables, I went home with my dad, maybe there were too many praises in the vegetable market, and my dad was laughing all the way, but he didn't talk to me about the family, and I didn't ask. After about 15 minutes of riding, we saw our home in the distance. Our home is not very big, there are three large tiled houses, a bungalow, and a vegetable garden, and after May Day, the family basically does not need to buy vegetables from outside. But now it's eleven, and there is nothing else at home except Chinese cabbage, even if it is Chinese cabbage, a part of it must be set aside to make sauerkraut.

My home is in a small mountain village with more than 50 households, divided by a river and a ditch. It is divided into the upper and lower ditches, and the lower ditches are divided into Henan and Hebei by a river, and our home belongs to the ditch and is located in Hebei. Not far from my house is a mountain forest, we all call this mountain Qianshan, and usually this mountain brings benefits to our farmers. You just say now, the official mushroom picking season, if it rains, there may be more mushrooms, but I don't know if I can have this blessing to pick a basket this time.

"Mom, I'm back" I pushed open the door and walked in, and saw my mom sitting around the edge of the pot, and when I went up to take a look, it turned out to be my favorite discus. It is to use cornmeal with some baking soda, then use boiling water and flour to make a cake shape with your hands, put the filling made of wild vegetables in it, and then throw it vigorously on the edge of the pot. When it is fully cooked, the back is hard and hard, and the front is soft dough, which is crispy and crispy in one bite, and the fragrance of wild vegetables leaves my saliva even if I think about it.

When my mother saw me, she laughed at me and said, "Little glutton, you're back." Okay, don't look at it. Hurry up and wash your hands, I'm going to cook a few dishes, and we're going to eat. ”

"Okay, mom is the greatest," I kissed mom on the cheek and walked into my room. My room said it wasn't big, but there was a lot of stuff in it. There are awards issued from elementary school to university, but most of them are sports, such as the second place in the 800 meters, the first place in cross-country, the first place in the 3000 meters relay, and so on. However, I still want to show off here, that is, I have a certificate of merit for three good students, but one is in elementary school and one is in high school, and the span is a bit large.

I cleaned up a little and then went out, and when I saw my mother picking vegetables, I hurried over to help. Dad saw that we were busy here, and also joined us, it seems that we can eat Dad's fried dishes today, usually Dad doesn't do it at all. I looked up at my mother, and my mother smiled at me and said, "It's still a big girl, I usually ask him to fry a few dishes for me, but it's a hundred unwilling, I didn't ask today, so I did it myself." ”

"Mom, you won't even eat your daughter's vinegar. After saying that, I also pretended to make a hurt expression.

When my parents heard what I said, they burst out laughing. The family started to stir-fry together, I picked vegetables, my mother cut vegetables, my dad stir-fried vegetables, so busy, it didn't take long for the dishes to be served, looking at such a table of hearty meals, I felt very happy. I held up the drink in my hand and said to my parents, "Mom and Dad, you've worked hard. Thank you for your dedication to me. After that, I drank the drink very boldly.

"This kid, shouldn't we pay as we should? Besides, don't you have to feed us when we're old? After Mom finished speaking, she also took a sip of her drink.

"Well, old woman, I'm glad today, do you think I can have some wine?" my dad asked, looking at my mom.

Because my dad was found to have necrosis of the femoral head a few years ago, and the doctor said that he couldn't drink, my mom strictly forbade my dad to drink, but when he was happy, he could still drink. Just as my dad looked at me expectantly, my mom nodded. The moment my mother nodded, I saw my dad quickly open the cook, and then poured a glass and took a sip first, as if I was afraid that my mother would change his mind.

When my mom saw my dad like this, she smiled at me embarrassedly. Everyone was very happy at the meal, and my father was even happier after drinking, but my mother still controlled the amount and let my father just drink two taels and not let him drink. My dad drank a little and was satisfied, so he didn't pester my mom anymore. After eating, I asked me to wash the dishes, and my parents did not refuse, I washed the dishes in the kitchen, and I felt really happy listening to my parents, and even made people a little jealous.
