Chapter 661: Relax
The eldest son of the Liu family immediately took out a long box from his pocket and handed it to Song Zemin: "Give Zemin a fountain pen, I hope your work will go smoothly after you arrive in the capital!"
Song Zemin immediately took it and expressed his gratitude.
The corners of Song Yiyi's mouth couldn't help twitching, and she really made herself right, except for the eggs sent by Mrs. Liu and the meat and vegetables sent by Senior Brother Li, all the other neighbors sent pens.
Actually, Song Yiyi can fully understand what is going on.
Giving food and drink on a non-New Year's Day is too vulgar.
Especially Song Zemin has now got a very favorable job transfer, so anyone who has a half-official position in the work unit will think of giving him a gift that can be used often at work or in daily life!
If they send daily necessities, they don't know Song Zemin's preferences. Therefore, the safest thing to give away is the fountain pen. A good fountain pen, especially a gold pen, is both practical and expensive, and it is completely the most timely gift for Song Zemin at this time.
When the Liu family left, Battalion Commander Wu was a little excited, and pulled Song Zemin to ask him how to carry out his work if he could really transfer to the Public Security Bureau.
Song Yiyi explained, and went to buy cold noodles with Zhuang Moxiang.
There is an area inhabited by Koreans in Shen City, which is known as the "West Tower" by the locals, and lives next to the real West Tower of Shen City.
As an ancient historical city, Shenshi has achieved unprecedented development, especially in the early Qing Dynasty.
At that time, Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty ordered the construction of four pagoda temples in the east, south, west and north outside Shengjing City, namely the East Tower Yongguang Temple, the South Tower Guangci Temple, the West Tower Yanshou Temple, and the North Tower ** Temple.
The four pagodas and temples symbolize the four great Vajra towns and the four directions, protecting the country and the people, protecting the country from disasters and blessings.
Grandma Song once whispered to her granddaughter that she didn't know if Shen City was because of the dragon qi of the former palace, or because these four towers were really powerful, and there were indeed few disasters and disasters here.
Zhuang Moxiang stopped the car and entered the store with Song Yiyi.
Song Yiyi walked past the counter selling Korean clothes, and took a special look, this color is really bright, red, emerald green, bright pink, goose yellow, purple, lake blue, even if the clothes people wear now have broken away from the old three colors of the past, but there is still no bright and bold color matching of these clothes.
After walking past a few counters selling daily necessities, Song Yiyi actually saw the cake in the food counter.
Beat cakes, like cold noodles, are both traditional foods of the Korean people.
It is named because it is made by putting glutinous rice in a trough or on a stone slab and beating it with a wooden atmosphere.
Korean people make cakes on major celebrations such as New Year's Day, the birthday of the elderly, children's birthdays, and wedding celebrations, and it is an indispensable food on the festive table.
Cake making is indispensable in holiday gifts, especially gifts to parents, because the married daughter makes cakes for her parents with sincerity, love and filial piety.
Song Yiyi saw that there were two kinds of beaten cakes on the counter, one was a white cake made of glutinous rice, and the other was a yellow cake made of yellow rice, so she bought some of each, planning to take them home and let grandpa, grandma and father all taste it.
"The cake is dipped in bean noodles and white sugar, and the tendon and rice are fragrant, and it is very delicious. ”
Song Yiyi didn't forget to introduce Zhuang Moxiang, but she didn't expect Zhuang Moxiang to say it more professionally: "I know that the characteristics of cake are glutinous, soft, sticky, and soft, and I used to ...... I ate it when I went to Yanbian. ”
Song Yiyi understood that Zhuang Moxiang had eaten it when he was on a mission before, so he told him an interesting story with a smile: "Do you know that there is a common practice in Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture?"
"That is, when the child takes the college entrance examination, the parents of Korean candidates will go to the gate of the institution of higher learning where they are looking forward to their children, and before dawn in the early morning, they will throw the cake made at home in advance on the school wall and gate, the higher the throw, the greater the hope of the child being admitted to the university, so as to imply the prosperity and the title of the gold list!"
Zhuang Moxiang raised his eyebrows and asked: "The college entrance examination was only resumed last year, and the parents of the candidates are going to do this kind of thing, I really hope that my son will become a dragon?"
Song Yiyi was shocked, she was more and more relaxed when she spoke in front of Zhuang Moxiang, and she forgot that what she just said only appeared in later generations.
I had to find a reason: "I'm in school...... I heard what my classmates said, maybe it was her family's way of doing it, I heard it wrong. ”
Song Yiyi pursed her lips, despising herself in her heart, this lie is really not level.
Zhuang Moxiang didn't believe it when she heard it, not that she didn't believe Song Yiyi, but where she heard about it, which obviously didn't look like a real thing. If it were another ten or twenty years, it would still be possible......
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Song Yiyi's explanation, and saw that the girl was in a somewhat depressed mood, and immediately comforted: "Even if it's just your classmate's family, it's quite interesting." ”
Then, pointing to the counter that sells cold noodles: "Yiyi, how many will we buy?"
Song Yiyi threw away the little emotions just now, and while reminding himself that he couldn't say anything after reminding himself, this time it was for Zhuang Moxiang, he didn't think much about it, if he said it to others, it would arouse the suspicion of others, and said: "Buy more, cold noodles can be left for half a month." ”
The two bought ten catties of cold noodles, bought a spicy cabbage, and went home.
Then, at the strong request of Grandpa Song, Song Yiyi decided to make cold noodles for dinner.
Grandpa Song also wanted to try it, and he just ate big fish and meat at noon, thinking about the cold noodles sweet and sour, and the soup and water, just to relieve the greasy.
Song Yiyi originally wanted to cook another delicious meal in the evening, after all, she would leave early tomorrow morning. At least before the summer vacation, I won't be able to see my grandfather and grandmother.
Grandma Song didn't know her granddaughter's thoughts, thinking that Yiyi had been busy all morning, and if she was busy with dinner, she would also feel distressed: "Yiyi, just eat cold noodles." The last time your grandfather and I ate cold noodles was last summer. ”
As soon as Song Yiyi heard this, there was no reason why she should not do it.
When she got home, Camp Commander Wu's family also left, so she blamed herself: "Grandma, I forgot to tell you that I brought back more meat and vegetables for Uncle Wu's family before I went to buy Leng . ”
"Today, Aunt Wu brought chicken, fish, and sausages, and I was a little worried about his family's food in the recent past. ”
Grandma Song gave her granddaughter an approving look: "I really made you guess right." ”
"When I came back from Liu's house, Xiao Wuzi's daughter-in-law was whispering in the courtyard to train Erya. said that she didn't have the appearance of a girl's house when she ate, and she said something that made people unable to get off the stage. ”
Erya admitted her mistake to her mother and said that she would pay attention to what she said in the future. ”
