Chapter 444. The wanderer is homesick

On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, unexpectedly, a considerable number of people chose to watch a documentary in front of the TV.

Some of them are old people who have been retired for many years, sitting next to each other, looking at the golden wheat fields, and the yellow ears of rice swaying in the wind, which is the appearance in memory.

Some of them are young people who have just joined the workforce, and in their cognition, rice is bought in the supermarket and delivered by takeaway, but it is not grown in the ground, and the things presented in the documentary are novel and interesting, attracting their attention.

Some of them are farmers living in brick houses they have built, and their families watch a TV with great interest as people who are similar but different from themselves busy.

Others, students who were assigned homework, and their teachers asked them to watch a documentary and write their impressions during the winter vacation, and many of them chose "A Bite of China".

In the Kingdom of England, it was twelve o'clock at noon.

Li Ruoxuan just finished a meeting, had a hasty meal, rushed to the airport, and prepared to take a plane to go elsewhere, but due to the weather, the plane was delayed, and she could only sit in the waiting hall and wait.

Winters in England are cold and damp, with thick fog obscuring the skies.

Li Ruoxuan took out her mobile phone and habitually wanted to see the situation in China.

"It turns out that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year."

She was in a bit of a trance and muttered to herself.

After many years of wandering in a foreign country, Li Ruoxuan has forgotten this day of reunion.

"Obviously, I said it on the phone yesterday, I have this memory."

Li Ruoxuan can remember the hobbies and habits of each author, and can remember the plot and details of each serialized work, but she doesn't care much about things in life.

On Weibo, everyone was discussing "A Bite of China", Li Ruoxuan didn't pay much attention to this kind of documentary produced by national television, but suddenly saw Xu Rui's name on the consultant list, and saw the news broadcast by Chuyin Video Network, Li Ruoxuan became interested again.

"Or take a look."

Looking up at the estimated take-off time, Li Ruoxuan had enough time to watch the first episode, so she opened the Chuyin Video Network and clicked on "A Bite of China".

The precious matsutake mushrooms in the southern forests, the spring bamboo shoots that emerge after the rain, and the ham with the taste of time, these Li Ruoxuan either knows, or understands it for the first time, and sees it with relish.

Soon, the camera travels to the central region of China, on the lake, people rowing boats, exploring the shallows in the early morning, wearing waterproof pants, walking into the withered leaves, digging out sections of white stuff from the dark silt.

It's a lotus root.

Li Ruoxuan suddenly became a little more serious.

She likes to eat lotus root, especially stewed pork ribs with lotus root, but this vegetable is basically not eaten in foreign countries, and occasionally you can see vacuum-packed in supermarkets in Chinatown, but the taste is not that way.

Seeing the lotus root clip made in the documentary, Li Ruoxuan's eyes widened, she had never eaten this way of eating, the lotus root clip wrapped in meat filling, wrapped in batter, and swelled in hot oil, made Li Ruoxuan, who only ate a few sandwiches for lunch, couldn't help but swallow saliva.

Digging lotus root is hard, because the lotus root is difficult to pick with a machine, and the demand is large, so the labor cost is very high, the worse the environment, the higher the income, the life of the family, the child's tuition fee, have to rely on their hands to dig out of the mud.

"Lotus root diggers like cold weather, not because the weather is cold and easy to dig lotus roots, but because the weather is cold, there will be more people who buy lotus roots and eat lotus root soup, and the price of lotus roots will rise."

This commentary came from the earphones, and Li Ruoxuan suddenly thought of a lot, and turned her nose a little sour.

She remembered a scene described in a poem.

The poor shirt is single, and the heart is worried and wishes for the cold.

Although the scene described in this poem is different from that of the lotus root digger, the emotions revealed in it are similar.

She likes to eat lotus roots, but she never knew the bitterness of this before, but now she sees it and is full of emotion.

The next story is fishing on the frozen lake in the northeast, which is very new to Li Ruoxuan, who grew up in the south, and she unknowingly watched the entire documentary.

Compared with "A String of Life", "A Bite of China" is obviously the atmosphere of a traditional documentary, and the commentary uses a correct and round broadcast voice, and the words are more cautious and restrained.

But like "A String of Life", it is the various states of life depicted through food.

If barbecue reflects the life of the market, then "A Bite of China" reflects the cultural connotation of the Chinese nation.

Hard work, hard work, and then a bumper harvest are completely different from the common thinking of crooked nuts that Li Ruoxuan came into contact with.

In the ending song, Li Ruoxuan raised her head and looked at the sky of the haze-shrouded airport.

She had never missed her hometown as much as she did now, and suddenly she had the urge to buy a plane ticket and fly back to China immediately.

But everything is just an illusion, and Li Ruoxuan naturally can't leave her job.

After thinking about it, Li Ruoxuan opened QQ, found the avatar in the group, and sent a sentence.

[Li Ruoxuan]: "A Bite of China" is very good.

......

Xu Rui saw the message, smiled, replied twice, and looked at the mother and daughter in the living room.

Yi Qianqian held the handle and was facing the screen on one side of the living room, looking focused, while on the other side, Xiao Xiao Xu, who was sitting on the sofa, was also fiddling with the handle, and the TV was a picture of her fighting.

The two are playing Monster Hunter online.

The demo version of Monster Hunter has been unlocked at midnight today, just in time to ring the New Year's bell.

Contrary to the expectations of all game manufacturers, Hatsune Games provided a demo version of Monster Hunter, which not only inherits the graphics from the Comic Con demo, but also optimizes the performance of maintaining stable frame rates on various machine configurations, and also adds online functions.

This means that the production of Monster Hunter is truly coming to an end.

The demo version is also different from the world of Hatsune, players can choose several sets of templated faces first, and then choose weapons and missions, in the interface of selecting tasks, you can choose whether to make the room public, you can also search for other people's rooms, enter the room for up to four people, and after everyone is ready, the game can begin.

Of course, the demo version also provides the function of invitation code, enter the corresponding room number, you can go directly to your friend's room, and try the game online with your friend.

"Hit it, hit it, hit it!"

Xiao Xiao Xu was quite excited, she was still using a spear, and she was poking the Extinction Dragon one by one, and was overturned from time to time, on the other side, Yi Qianqian flexibly dodged the tail flick and gave the Exterminating Dragon a painful blow.

The cats of the two were in a hurry, one dropped a bomb to smash the dragon, and the other flew slowly towards Xiao Xiao Xu with a honey worm that could regenerate blood.

Finally, ten minutes later, the dragon fell.

"Oh yes!"

Xiao Xiao Xu smiled very happily.
