Chapter 312: Frost Falls
After the autumn equinox, time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is the time of the year when frost falls.
Every year around October 23 of the solar calendar, when the sun reaches the yellow longitude of 210 degrees, it is the frost fall in the 24 solar terms. Frost is the last solar term of autumn, the transition from autumn to winter. In the autumn evening, there is a lot of heat dissipation on the ground, the temperature drops sharply below 0 degrees, and the water vapor in the air directly condenses on the ground or plants to form fine ice needles, and some become hexagonal frost flowers, white in color and loose in structure.
The frost fell on October 24 in '83, and the temperature plummeted, and the ground was stained with frost as promised.
There is a saying in the Northeast that frost changes the sky. After the frost, the weather begins to bleak, and the leaves swept off by the autumn wind are everywhere, like a late autumn scene.
Rather than saying "frost kills herbs", it is better to say "frost kills herbs". Frost is a sign of cold weather, and frost is the enemy that kills crops. Since frost has frost (sometimes no frost is called black frost), autumn frost and spring frost are collectively referred to as frost.
As soon as the frost fell, there were many fewer pedestrians on the streets, and many people had already put on thick autumn pants at this time.
Li Zhongxin looked at the slightly bleak street, and felt a wave of irritability in his heart.
What is in Basan is a very good thing, it is to deter Xiaoxiao and let people get a better environment, but Li Zhongxin arranged for Bai Fengyi to find the black baby who went to collect mountain goods, but this time he did not grab the military hat, but he still went in because of the war.
This time it was about the same as the sentence of the later generations, this time for eight years for intentional injury.
Heiwa and Li Zhongxin have almost no much to do with each other, it's nothing more than staying together for a few days in the later life, this time Heiwa was sentenced to eight years in prison, Li Zhongxin just felt irritable.
He always had a feeling that he was destined to be reborn in eighty-two years, but there were many things that he should not deliberately change or change.
If the change is too big, whether it is for the people around you or some things, there will be some deviations, things that are destined in the dark, and even change back because of the passage of time.
"Faithful, you child, what are you doing standing at the gate? Do you have anything to do now? Wang Yaqing walked out of the gate and saw Li Zhongxin standing at the door stunned, she immediately asked.
"Uh, Mom, I don't have anything to do right now, just come out and get some fresh air." Li Zhong put away the unpleasant things in his faith and replied very casually.
"You stinky boy, it's okay to be fine. Today is the frost falling, your grandmother wants to eat persimmons and persimmon cakes, you go out and buy some back. As soon as Wang Yaqing heard that Li Zhongxin was fine, he was immediately overjoyed.
For her son, who was busier than her every day, Wang Yaqing was speechless for a long time. If it weren't for Li Zhongxin, who was born by her own and grew up under her nose, she would have felt that Li Zhongxin was a monster.
It's eighty-three years now, not to mention the whole street, even the entire Jiangcheng, and it seems that there is no child like Li Zhongxin who can toss.
Li Zhongxin tossed and fished with Wang Bo in 82, and then tossed the supermarket, and also set up a processing factory for wild vegetables.
If that's all there is to it, now there are a lot of contacts with the province, and the supermarket is ready to open in the province.
Throughout the summer vacation, Li Zhongxin, the child, didn't even stay home for a few days, and he was in the provincial capital and the capital, and he also took a plane to Japan.
After returning to Jiangcheng from Japan, it is said that she and the Japanese funded the largest cement factory in Jiangcheng, and even CCTV broadcast the news.
Her third brother has been watching grow up, what kind of material is it, she knows very well, if it weren't for the third brother and his son tossed this faithful company, the third brother would not be able to hide from it in the past eight or three years.
She knows better in her heart that no child's own child can toss, although Wang Yaqing doesn't know how much net worth Li Zhongxin has now, but she knows that if Jiang Cheng wants to say who the richest man is, it must be her own unconscious son.
"Oh, today the frost is eating persimmons and persimmon cakes! Then I'll go buy some now. Li Zhongxin touched his pocket, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Mom, you can get me some money, and when I go home, I will be more filial to you." ”
"Stinky boy, I don't have any money in my pocket. If you don't have any money, you can go home and pick it up, or go to your supermarket and pick it up. Seeing Li Zhongxin's stunned expression, Wang Yaqing said anxiously: "I'm going to play mahjong at Sister-in-law Jia's house in the backyard!" I can't give you money, otherwise, I won't necessarily win money playing mahjong today. Remember to buy more good persimmons and persimmon cakes! ”
After speaking, Wang Yaqing didn't look at Li Zhongxin again, hurriedly walked in front of Li Zhongxin, and walked towards the small alley more than ten meters away to the east.
Li Zhongxin is very speechless about his mother's preference for playing mahjong, and his mother has a hobby outside of teaching, that is, playing mahjong.
Every time I play mahjong, I mumble and mutter some things like the blessing of gods and Buddhas at home, and there are a lot of exquisiteness, and I can't borrow money when I play mahjong.
For example, now, his mother asked him to buy persimmons, but he didn't have any money in his pocket, and under normal circumstances, his mother should take the initiative to give him some money to buy them at this time.
However, his mother asked him to go back to the house to get it because of the attention to playing mahjong, or to the supermarket to get it directly, which also witnessed his mother's obsession with mahjong.
But what! Some of the hobbies are still very good, and the small gambling is just right for Li Zhongxin's mother.
Looking at his mother's back disappearing into the alley to the east, Li Zhongxin sighed, turned around and went back to the house to withdraw the money.
Although Zhongxin Grocery Supermarket was opened by Li Zhongxin, a long time has passed now, whether it is a flagship store or other supermarket chains, most of the old salesmen have gone out to open stores or manage floors.
Some began to train new salesmen, at this time, there were very few salespeople who knew Li Zhongxin at the flagship store of Zhongxin Supermarket, and if they really went there and didn't see anyone they knew, it would be embarrassing at that time.
If you say that because you have to buy a few persimmon cakes, you have to find someone who is responsible for managing the supermarket, Li Zhongxin feels that you really can't do it, since the supermarket is handed over to the people below to take care of, then try not to break the rules, even if he opened it, he can't go over there and take it directly without giving money.
In the evening, when a large family sat on the kang and talked, Li Zhongxin understood why his grandmother and mother ate persimmons on the day of frost.
Li Zhongxin's grandmother was eating a large persimmon while happily telling the legend she had heard when she was a child.
Legend has it that Zhu Chongba, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was very poor when he was a child, and he often ate the last meal without the next meal, so he had no choice but to pick up the begging bowl and pull the dog stick to beg for food.
One year when the frost fell, Zhu Chongba, who had not eaten for two days, was so hungry that his eyes were black and his limbs were weak. When he stumbled to a small village, his eyes lit up and he found a persimmon tree growing in a pile of rotten tiles on the edge of the village, which was full of red persimmons.
When Zhu Chongba saw it, he was very excited, thinking that God would not die of hunger.
So, I used all my strength to climb to the tree and ate a persimmon feast, so that I was able to pick up a small life from Lord Yama. And all winter without a runny nose and without chapped lips.
Later, Zhu Chongba became the emperor, and one year the frost fell and the soldiers passed by the small village again and found that the persimmon tree was still there, and it was still full of red persimmons. Faced with this situation, Zhu Chongba was full of thoughts, and it was this persimmon tree that saved him from starvation.
He looked up at this ordinary persimmon tree, slowly took off his red robe, climbed up again, solemnly draped the robe on the persimmon tree, and named it "Lingshuang Hou", and then reluctantly left.
After this story spread among the people, the custom of eating persimmons gradually formed during frost.
Li Zhongxin's mother Wang Yaqing and his grandmother He Shuqing are very fond of eating persimmons on weekdays, and they prefer to eat persimmon cakes from the south.
When the frost falls, both of them will go to the street to buy some persimmons or buy some persimmon cakes to eat.
Li Zhongxin's grandmother even said in a heartfelt way, eating persimmons when frost falls, there is no need to starve, why did she and Li Zhongxin's grandfather not go hungry during the three years of natural disasters.
Just because she eats persimmons at this time of frost every year, it is Zhu Chongba who is blessing the people to be able to eat a full meal.
They have experienced many hardships, and they most hope that China will become strong as soon as possible, so that the people of the whole country can eat and live happily.
Listening to his grandmother's words, Li Zhongxin made up his mind that he would work harder to make the motherland prosperous and strong quickly.
