Day by day, the sound of firecrackers on Chinese New Year's Eve is getting closer and closer, and every household in the village is beginning to be busy with New Year's goods, all kinds of bacon marinated, a large number of chicken, duck, fish, beef and mutton, all began to stock up, like all kinds of small food: melon seeds, dried sweet potatoes, chestnuts, shortbread, all kinds of useful useless, can eat, can't eat all kinds of bought a bunch of at home, just like a woman comrade who has been thrifty for a whole year came to a great liberation, no matter what, buy! Buy! Buy! The whole street was swept towards the bandits, and the crowd was overwhelmed, and there were stalls in a chaotic and orderly manner. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Mom! That's pretty much it! "I came and followed my mother, holding a lot of miscellaneous bags, looking at my mother with a sharp waist and legs, looking here and there, not like an older woman who has suffered from low back and leg pain for many years, she is a yellow flower girl who has recovered from the soul of shopping.
"You know what, can it be the same at home as you are outside? You can know better than your mother! It's rare to accompany your mother and me to the street once, shouting bitterly and tired, don't say that you are my son when you go out in the future, I can't afford to lose this person. "My mother was not happy when she heard Lin Lei's complaints, she hadn't felt so cool for a long time, and it was rare to come to the street once, this son was so ignorant!
Looking at the mother who glanced at himself, by the way with a warning, Lin Lei smiled bitterly or bitterly, at this time he really envied his father, he couldn't get in on a three-wheeled ride, plus he looked at the car, he could chat with a few fellow villagers freely outside, how comfortable, looking at the smell of the various natural and unnatural meat mixtures in the bag, Lin Lei had to pinch his nose and continue to follow his mother, if he lost it, his mother was unhappy, and he didn't want to have a peaceful birthday.
Shake your head and follow up.
......
"What do you think of this tofu? So delicate. Mom pointed to the watery tofu on a stall and asked Lin Lei on the side. Since Lin Lei just objected to the bean sprouts that his mother wanted to buy, Lin Lei really couldn't help it, this kind of thing is a standard poisonous bean sprout, this is not as simple as meat fed with feed, this thing is very bad for the body, if you eat it, there may be some problems, you must not be able to buy it! So he decisively pulled his mother and left, after explaining afterwards, coupled with Lin Lei's chef style at home, his mother began to unconsciously ask Lin Lei's opinion when she was shopping, which made Lin Lei have a feeling of turning over as a serf and singing, and finally it was no longer a humanoid shopping cart!
Before Lin Lei could answer, the uncle who bought the tofu hurriedly began to brag, "This is an authentic brine tofu, not a gypsum point, authentic, my family has been selling it here for so many years, and no one has not boasted about it." Then he looked at his mother, "What, eldest sister, buy two catties?" ”
Lin Lei nodded vaguely, this is not bad, it is also an authentic old way to make tofu, delicious, Lin Lei grew up eating this tofu, in the past, this was a bicycle on the streets and alleys to sell, I didn't expect to know about the stall.
Just as Lin Lei was about to leave with the tofu, his mother suddenly squinted at the boss, "Wait a minute, what did you just call me, eldest sister?" Am I that old! I don't buy this one. ”
Lin Lei looked at this scene dumbfounded, a little unable to turn around, just this little thing, no business! Lin Lei and the boss looked at each other and couldn't cry or laugh for a while, but they had to follow their mother's meaning, who called this a family member!
"You say, your mom and I look so old! You don't deserve to be in business. As soon as I walked away, my mother began to chatter about Lin Lei, obviously very dissatisfied with this matter, you must know that my mother was the most annoying to call her the most annoying person after being praised by her father for being young, and it happened that this family hit the muzzle, this is deserved, and Lin Lei has no choice.
After three or four times of going back and forth on a street, my mother ended the shopping without getting enough.
Lin Lei carried a hand full of large and small plastic bags, "I said Mom, there are so many, there are only three of us in the family, can we eat them?" ”
As soon as she heard this, her mother was not happy, so she crossed her waist with one hand and pointed at Lin Lei with the other, and began to reprimand, "You said that you, if you can't finish eating, you won't eat for a few more days, and it won't spoil, besides, there are few people in our family, who is to blame?" I don't blame you, if you get married after graduating from college, our family will have at least five people......"
Lin Lei was numb by a group of people around him, and saw that his mother had a gushing posture, so he hurriedly pulled his mother away, if he continued to say this, Lin Lei estimated that his old face would have no place to lose.
"Okay, okay, Mom, let's go home, this tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, there are still a lot of things to be busy when you go home, don't rush to scold first."
......
The two went out and found the father who was bragging, Lin Lei hurriedly put the things still in the car, and instantly felt that it was a monkey who had just crawled out of Wuzhi Mountain, and his whole body was full of inexhaustible energy, not to mention how happy it was.
Mom and Dad sat on the chairs, Lin Lei could only sit in the basket of the tricycle in the back, plus the country road, bumpy and bumpy, it was simply sour and unlimited.
When the family came home, it was naturally like Lin Lei said, busy work, of course, since Lin Lei was promoted to the chief chef of the family, this kind of thing was done by him, and his parents were "respectful of each other" on the side, watching Lin Lei rush alone, of course, his mother also helped, just kept commanding, so as not to make Lin Lei wrong.
Fried meatballs, boiled beef and mutton, marinated salted fish, air-dried bacon, poured sausages, a dazzling array of large and small plates, the rest can be kneaded, and then wait for the dough to be made, and leave it until tomorrow to burn hot cakes, pure natural wheat noodles, flour without any added chemicals, the taste is different from the city, that is, there is a special fragrance.
The rest can also prepare dumpling wrappers, add a variety of dumpling fillings, and wait for tomorrow to wrap them, and you can set off firecrackers and eat dumplings on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
......
"Mom, I'll give you one last time, it's almost fine!" While rolling the dumpling skin, Lin Lei said to his mother who was making cakes, "Today, let's cure this disease and prevent it from harming next year's mother." ”
"Really? That's good, you don't know, in fact, it's still very uncomfortable when massage, and you don't have to suffer this crime again. When my mother heard Lin Lei's words, she was immediately overjoyed, and even her hands became numb.
"By the way, come with us to watch the Spring Festival Gala later. By the way, make dumplings, if you don't wrap them, you won't eat them! ”
"Mom, what's so good about this party, I never watch it outside."
"What do you know, whoever watches it, let's watch it is a habit, sometimes, if you don't watch it, you can't sleep Chinese New Year's Eve night......"
"Alright then!" Thinking that it had been a long time since a family had a reunion to watch the Spring Festival Gala, Lin Lei had no choice but to agree to his mother's request, and gave up the idea of talking to Yun Su on the phone, and only paid a New Year's greeting on the first day of the New Year.
Thinking of Yun Su's choked voice on the phone when Yun Su left here a few days ago, Lin Lei felt that he missed her so much!
On this night, thousands of homes were lit up......
