Chapter 54: Smoked Bacon

In winter, it gets dark early, and with snow again, it gets dark quickly.

When it was dark, the little dolls dispersed and prepared to go back to their respective homes.

Huanhuan was thinking about the treasure and walked on the road absentmindedly.

"Bah-" A muffled sound brought iQue's mind back to reality.

When I looked down, one of my cotton shoes was stepping on the snow and was already soaked.

Duan Huan snorted herself in her heart, and she laughed at Zhang Cuiying just in the afternoon, and now the world will report it.

It's not cold, the problem is that her other pair of cotton shoes was just washed yesterday and haven't dried yet.

Yes, the shoe control, which used to have the title of centipede essence, has now been reduced to the point where there are only two pairs of shoes to change in one winter.

It's not bad, but there are so many people who don't even have a pair of decent cotton shoes, and they are still wearing single shoes at this time, and they are jokingly called "playing singles" in the bitterness!

When he got home, Grandpa Xu watched Duan Huan sit on the small bench and take off her shoes, and knew that her shoes were wet.

"You're going out in this weather! You see your shoes are wet again, what do you think you'll wear tomorrow? ”

With a smile and a smile, she put on rabbit fur slippers, which were made for her by Uncle Su Fen of Chen Dahai's family, there are many primitive old forests in the Northeast, and the women over there will more or less sew clothes with fur.

"Tomorrow I will listen to Zuzu's words, at the head of the house, and don't go out!"

Grandpa Xu sneered at her with a smile, "I see that you are sprinkling peppercorns in the cemetery, a ghost!" Tomorrow is not like a smoke and no one will be seen! ”

Wan Huan ran to the stove with wet shoes and coquettishly at Grandpa Xu, "Zuzu, I was wrong!" I dried it one night before I put the hole in the stove! ”

"You, you ......" Grandpa Xu has never had much resistance to Huanhuan's coquettishness.

Grandpa Xu's smoked bacon was almost there, as soon as he opened the sack covering the pot, a piece of golden red bacon appeared in front of him, and the aroma on his face made Duan Huan couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

In her last life, she went to the supermarket to buy the bacon she ate, although it looked good, but it was completely different from what she ate when she was a child, maybe the smoking method and raw materials were different.

"It's so fragrant, Zuzu! Let's cook a piece in the evening and taste it! "The greedy worm rebelled, and immediately proposed.

Grandpa Xu immediately smiled and said, "Okay!" I'll cook a piece tonight, but I'll wait until I hang up the bacon and put the pot on before I can cook rice! ”

It turned out that Grandpa Xu was removing the pot and building a simple shelf on it, so that there was a place to smoke meat.

Huan Huan followed behind Grandpa Xu like a little tail, washing vegetables and handing over a plate or something, and it seemed that he was also busy.

When Grandpa Xu cooked the bacon, he sandwiched two pieces of cured pork ribs and let her taste it first.

The meat tastes dry and chewy, but it is not particularly salty, and there is a slight spice flavor of pepper and cinnamon orange peel.

"Zuzu, do you still have orange peel and cinnamon peel in here?"

Grandpa Xu cut the bacon without raising his head, "Put a little bit, it's the medicinal herbs you made in the autumn!" I caught a little bit when I saw it in it! What does it taste like? ”

Every morning when I go out to exercise, I will come back with some herbs according to my self-taught medical knowledge, wash and concoct them, and I have accumulated a lot for most of the year.

"Mmmm, this pork ribs are very delicious, or Zuzu's craftsmanship is good!" While chewing the ribs, I didn't forget to praise Grandpa Xu.

Grandpa Xu put the cut meat on the cutting board on the plate, took the cut garlic sprouts, and wiped the oil left over from the cutting meat on the cutting board and kitchen knife.

After multiplying the radish boiled in the pot, start to put the bacon down and fry it, and fry it into bacon and garlic sprouts back to the pot.

After the fried bacon was brought to the table, I saw that the bacon and garlic sprouts were shiny and shiny, and the fat of the bacon became translucent, with the red color of lean meat sauce and the green and white color of garlic sprouts.

Just looking at it makes Duan Huan salivate, not to mention that this plate of bacon also exudes an attractive fragrance.

Grandpa Xu saw that Huanhuan's chopsticks kept attacking the bacon, and sandwiched a few radishes for her.

"I'm panicking after eating too much bacon, and the little fish will eat some radish!"

The grandfather and grandson ate a large plate of bacon and a soup pot of radishes cleanly, and touched their stomachs with satisfaction.

Grandpa Xu saw her action, and immediately gave her a popping chestnut, "A female doll can't be so uncivilized!" ”

"Zuzu ......" touched his head aggrievedly.

Grandpa Xu saw all the grievances of Huan, and immediately rubbed her with his hand, for fear that he would hurt his great-granddaughter.

Seeing Grandpa Xu's distressed and annoyed look, he laughed after a while.

"You dead doll knows how to coax me to play!" Grandpa Xu finally reacted and pinched Duan Huan's nose.

After eating, Grandpa Xu didn't go out for a walk as usual, and prepared to make a charcoal pot for Huanhuan to roast his shoes.

While baking the shoes, Duan Huan told Grandpa Xu about He Mingxi and Zhang Cuiying's preparation for treasure hunting.

Grandpa Xu said indifferently: "As long as you don't engage in sabotage, if you want to dig up treasures, you can dig it!" We don't have many legendary treasure maps, right? I haven't seen anyone actually dig it up!"

"Really, Zuzu? Is there really a treasure? "The joy immediately came to the spirit.

Grandpa Xu touched Duan Huan's head, "Why did your little doll's family become a money string?" I'm excited when I hear about baby! ”

"Which is not a rare treasure? Buried in the ground may be an antique! How valuable! He pulled Grandpa Xu's hand down in disgust.

I just touched my shoes and touched my head, and I really accepted that I was incompetent, although the shoe was still my own.

Grandpa Xu said with a smile: "There are many legends about the treasure, but no one has ever found it!" ”

"Whoever finds the treasure is still talking everywhere, it's not Ha'er!" Wan Huan pouted a little deflated, this treasure did look plausible.

Grandpa Xu's expression was very regretful, "We Xiaoyuer like antiques so much, but it's a pity that Zuzu's knowledge is limited, so it's better to buy a little and save it in the early years!" ”

When he was young, it was in troubled times, and those rich people fled overseas one after another, and the antiques that he couldn't take away were pawned and sold, but he really didn't study them, and his eyes were hot but he didn't buy them after all.

When I was young, when I went out to run freight, I also preferred precious metals such as gold and silver.

Because the times are uncertain, who knows if the currency issued by those in power today will still be worth the same amount tomorrow.

At that time, gold was hard currency, and jewelry and jade were not as real as yellow and white goods.

"I don't like antiques! I just think it's very valuable, and the jewelry is also very beautiful! But we'll have a chance in the future! Seeing Grandpa Xu's regretful appearance, Duan Huan immediately changed his words.

Wan Huan knew very well in his heart that in fact, Grandpa Xu really loved himself like a jewel, and he couldn't be satisfied.

The current standard of living is not even thought of in the hearts of ordinary people.

is so long, others know that they may have to draw circles and curse to be happy.

Anyway, it will be a big storm in a few years, and I am ready to collect antiques again at that time, which can be regarded as saving cultural relics.

"How do you know there's an opportunity?" Grandpa Xu looked very curious when he saw Duan Huan.

Huan Huan said solemnly to Grandpa Xu:

"Zuzu, maybe in a few years, cultural people will no longer be respected, they will be beaten into the ninth rate, and books and antiques will become feudal relics!"

"Nonsense! How difficult it is for the country to cultivate a literate person, how can it defeat the intellectuals? Grandpa Xu didn't want to think about it, so he immediately retorted.
