The soup is clear, the wonton boy floats and floats in it, the light wonton skin unfolds in the soup, like a woman's light yarn, before the pot, sprinkle a little chopped green onion and coriander to taste, a bowl of wonton is completed, it looks very refreshing.
Granny Meng sent the wonton to the two of them, and after serving a plate of soy sauce peppers to the two of them, she advised: "Eat slowly, if it's not enough, remember to call me." ”
Gu Nianxing probably didn't know, but as a person who often came over to eat, He Pingge clearly knew that Granny Meng had added a lot to this wonton, but he didn't point it out, just smiled and said, "Okay, thank you Granny Meng." ”
Gu Nian watched Granny Meng leave, poked He Pingge lightly with the end of the chopsticks and said, "Can you say it now?"
He Pingge nodded lightly, and handed the chopsticks and spoons that had been rinsed with tea to Gu Nian, and said, "The biggest thing for the New Year now is actually to buy New Year's goods......
For most people, the first few days of the New Year are to buy all the things to buy, and in the next few days, you can stay at home safely, or chat with melon seeds, or eat and drink, and you can finish the year.
But this is a bit difficult for He Pingge to do.
Just to say the simplest, buy new clothes, He Pingge often can't get any new clothes.
This is not to say that the master is harsh on them, but that there are many disciples under the master, and often once they are raised, they are the foundation of one or two opera troupes, so many children have to live together for more than ten years, from dolls to young men who can take charge of themselves, among which the master has to spend a lot of effort.
Not only is there a lot of mental strength, but also a lot of money is spent, and the children who are basically sent to the troupe, even if they only have a few ways to go, either they have too many children and can't afford to raise them, so they have to sell half and give them to the troupe to beg for food, or they are the little beggars that the master picked up casually on the side of the road, and they look good at the qualifications, so they keep their lives alive.
There are really children of rich families who are idle and bored, and they want to learn some of this stuff without doing their jobs, and they also invite a good master to teach them one-on-one when they return home, and they will never enter a small team like them.
So in short, their troupe, to put it bluntly, is a group of poor little orphans.
Since it is called an orphan, it is natural that life and death are rich and noble, where will the family come to visit, so basically the expenses depend on the master.
No matter how powerful the master is, he is just an ordinary person, raising a child, but he can't afford to raise such a lot.
Although everyone is not saying that they are doing very well, it is precisely because of this that more people can survive.
Sometimes there are a few senior brothers who can go out to act and earn back money, which is considered a subsidy, and most of the others have to be paid by the master himself, and it is not easy to live and eat, where will there be such a thing as new clothes and New Year's goods?
At least in the first few years of He Pingge's first memory, he didn't wear new clothes, and the clothes he wore were often handed down by his senior brothers one by one, patches on top of each other, or simply clothes that were rotten, cut out the complete fabric, and then sewn into clothes.
It sounds a little pitiful now, but I didn't think it was like it then.
Although he can't get new clothes, the Chinese New Year is also the happiest time for He Pingge.
At this time, the master will lead them to cut a new dress in person, and after the New Year, they will wear this new clothes, with some coils and necessary supplies, and leave here easily.
According to the rules, they can't take away their old clothes, after all, they start from scratch and start anew in a year.
They were originally going to eat in the corners, and with those old clothes, they seemed to be cowering.
Therefore, they are only asked to have one body on them, and nothing else, so that they are cornered, and it will also stimulate their fighting spirit, so that they know that if they want to live, they can only go forward.
Every time the senior brothers and sisters leave, the master always has to gather everyone to talk about these truths again.
He Pingge couldn't understand these words when he was a child, but he clearly knew that when the senior brothers and sisters left, their clothes would definitely be distributed to the little cubs below.
Naturally, the clothes are not new, half-new and not old, but they are also much better than clothes with large patches and small patches.
Dividing one piece is enough to last a New Year's month.
Life in the world, food and clothing.
In addition to being happy to get a good piece of clothing for the New Year, there are delicious foods that you can't usually eat, which is also one of them.
Master is a good Master, and he doesn't seem to be like any other kind of person, just take some messy food and fill the children's stomachs.
What they eat, often boiled porridge with wild vegetables, things in the mountains, very clear and refreshing, when the senior brother goes down to the mountain to cover the wild things, you can also look at some meat, and the rest is wiped with salt and dried, and when the festival is celebrated, one person can also eat meat.
It stands to reason that this kind of food was not easy at that time, compared to the people who starved to death on the streets, they were all well fed, and none of them were too thin.
But children, especially those who are growing up, according to the old saying, are all half-grown children who eat Lao Tzu's goods, let alone such a group.
There was no oil and water in the stomach, and even if the stomach was filled with dry food, I felt that I was crying out for hunger.
The only time I can eat a meal of meat is the Chinese New Year.
As soon as the Chinese New Year arrives, the big fat pig that has been raised at home for a year should be killed, there are many farmers nearby, and there are many pigs killed.
It's just that He Pingge can't afford this, dozens of mouths are waiting to eat and drink, if they buy meat, they will eat poor master, and they can't make every child satisfied.
But Master also has his own methods.
Master never went to buy pork in the morning, he waited until the evening, when the pork was almost sold.
At this time, there was basically nothing left on the board, the most obvious being the shaved flesh, miserable white bone shelf.
Bone racks are not liked by many people, after all, as the old saying goes, you will think that those who eat bones are wolves and dogs.
These farmers often take the bones back and cook them to taste a little meaty, and the remaining bones are kept for dog food.
These bones are not good in the eyes of others, but they are different in the eyes of the Master.
He would often bring a few senior brothers with him to bring back a lot of bones that could be bought with a few copper plates at a low price.
The senior brothers all carry the kind of double-headed flat shoulders, and a few people can pick up as many flat burdens as they can go, which is not expensive anyway, and it also saves the farmers trouble, which is also a happy thing.
When the children stay at home for a day, looking forward to the return of the senior brother and the master, they will open the door with a burden of bones, and when the bones are picked up, the first-time children will often show great disappointment, but the children who have been staying for a long time will look at the master expectantly.
And the master never disappointed them, often a Taishi chair swung to the middle of the ground, rolled up his sleeves, and began to urge the apprentices to work.
Yes, Master never does it himself, he just dictates.
But this doesn't prevent it, the senior brothers have also watched the senior brothers above do this kind of thing a few times, so it's very easy to do.
Wrap the bones in a clean cloth, and when the senior brothers take turns holding hammers to knock them, the little dolls should be instructed to light the fire.
If you buy a lot of bones, you will definitely not be able to smash them all at once, so you can smash one pack at a time, and you can smash them intermittently for a few days.
After boiling the pot full of water, you can put the large bones that were smashed earlier and the small bone residues into the pot and boil.
It's just that when cooking, it is not directly thrown into the pot, but another gauze net, the opening is not big or small, just enough to let the water flow in, and will not let the bone chips come out.
The bones were in the pot for about two hours, and the fragrance came out, which was really the kind of fragrance that was particularly attractive, so that a group of children knew that there was no one in the pot, but they couldn't help but look at the edge of the pot.
The more I smashed, the more I froze under the eaves with gauze bags, because the weather was cold, so I didn't worry about it breaking or anything.
Basically, when it was smashed at night, the master would ask the brothers to take a break, firstly, even if they rotated, after all, they were too tired, and they were afraid that their arms would hurt the next day, and secondly, it was not easy to get good things, and it was not good to ask the younger ones to wait for them to eat in peace.
Because the troupe often has to hang their voices, they will not choose a place with a lot of people, and they will not worry about arguing with others.
The bone broth is said to be on the bones, but there is actually a little meat on it, and after simmering for a night, the meat is stewed and melted directly into the soup, at this time, the aroma of the soup will be more obvious.
Logically speaking, they all had dinner at night, listened to the master's recitation of the opera with their horses or forks, and memorized the opera, but these days are an exception.
After the master went to the pot to stir and stir, according to the situation of the bone broth, he would ask the apprentices to directly turn off the fire and let the bone broth cool, and the size of the yard would be hungry and stay next to the pot to recite the words.
Master will look at the situation in the pot and tell everyone from time to time that it will be long and how long it will take, and it will be ready to eat.
There is a lot of fat in the bones, especially after such a fierce stew.
The marrow in the bones is boiled and melted into the soup, and the fat floats on the top, and when the soup is cold, it forms a thick layer of lard.
The master would bring a large vat and tell the brothers to scoop up the lard on it and put it into the jar, and when the lard was finished, they would turn on the fire again to cook the soup.
Generally speaking, people with a little condition will eat a meal of dumplings during the New Year, no matter what kind of filling, pork and green onions or leek eggs, the picture is auspicious.
