Chapter Seventy-Three: Laba Seafood Porridge

Xiao Yuan took three hundred yuan from the car, four hundred catties of cornmeal, four hundred catties of potatoes, four hundred catties of sweet potatoes, a big iron pot, and a small iron pot.

"Lao Li, let your daughter-in-law come over to cook, work here and take care of the food, otherwise you will faint from working in the cold. Also, look at these things, don't let people steal them, I don't want to send people to jail for the New Year. Xiao Yuan warned Li San.

"Leader, don't worry, I live here with my wife and son, and no one can take away a nail." Li San replied in a low voice, but his tone was very firm, whoever will kill him!

"Very good, there are bricks here, you let people make a kang first, there are wooden canvases, build a better place by yourself, eat well, and live warmly, don't worry, I will let you have a good year here." Xiao Yuan patted him on the shoulder and promised.

On January 24th, Laba Festival, according to traditional culture, today is to drink porridge, Laba porridge is a kind of porridge made from a variety of ingredients during the Laba Festival, also known as Qibao five-flavor porridge.

As a folk custom, Laba porridge is eaten on the eighth day of the twelfth month of the lunar calendar to celebrate the harvest, which has been passed down to this day.

It's a pity that there is only one taste in the homes of ordinary people, and that is bitterness, and this taste has never left.

As for what celebrates the harvest, that's even more nonsense, which year is a good harvest? In addition to blowing it out, what is really planted can you talk about it?

I don't know how others are, anyway, even Xiao Yuan can't make up the seven treasures and five flavors, he doesn't drink it, I want to make a seafood porridge to drink, okay?

In the pigeon market in the early morning, Xiao Yuan set up a stall, or learned from the sixth master, a five-pound wild boar, a bag of fifty pounds of rice, and a gold bracelet in the middle.

Xiao Yuan smoked a cigarette and didn't speak. When others ask, the hand points to the gold bracelet, buddy just change, if you want to have it, let's talk about it.

Finally waited for him to find someone, a guy dressed like a translator, did not wake up from a dream, such a cold day, still wearing a horse coat, but it did not prevent him from being happy, he had been freezing for a few days, just waiting for this kind of grandson!

"How much meat and rice do you have?" The man in the horse coat looked at it, and then asked Xiao Yuan.

"As much as you want, I only exchange it for gold, one gram of gold, one pound of meat, two pounds of rice, I have as much gold as you want, you can do anything, as long as you have gold." Xiao Yuan is not pretending to be forced, there really is!

"Can you talk about it in another place, we want more, and we guarantee more than five big fish." The man in the horse coat whispered.

"No problem, you can go there." Xiao Yuan was not afraid, so he picked up his things and left.

Follow the man in the horse coat out of the pigeon market, go to the side of the station, chat, they have their own fixed circle, every day to enjoy themselves, the family has not eaten to pretend to be a master, feel that come to the pigeon market to lose their identity.

So I pushed him, the worst of this ancestor mixed up, there is nothing to compare, just compare with whom's official in the tomb, you say this is not idle!

This group of uncles basically lives in that circle, and this surnamed Ma has a big yard, not far to the west of Houhai.

The more Ma San chatted with him, the more speculative he became, and he was also bitter, he had already seen it, but he was mixed in this circle, and his family lived there, and he could be scolded to death if he took off his coat, and he didn't dare to break through.

But it doesn't prevent him from wanting to be a general agent, and some of the second-hand masters eat and some earn. This idea coincides with Xiao Yuan, coincidentally, buddy also wants to break into your circle!

For the first time, everyone had a tentative attitude, traded pork, rice, and white flour, and Xiao Yuan also got 7 large and 16 small gold bars, and the two sides made an appointment to make a big one in a small year, ensuring more than 20 large yellow croaker.

Xiao Yuan also promised to get him some game that the Manchus like to eat, pork, beef and mutton, and big fish.

This time it was absorbed, and the space had become five hundred acres of land, which was already enough, Xiao Yuan didn't know whether to feed it or not, it was really distressing, and the key was that he didn't know what else to eat!

Hurry up and drive home to make laba porridge, today Xiao Yuan made up his mind, he must make a seafood porridge, shrimp and crab gala meat, put shallots and coriander on the pot, delicious and fragrant.

It's just that he didn't pay attention to doing too much, mainly because the shrimp and crabs were quite big, and the shellfish he picked were also big, so he made a big casserole.

Half a pot of hot porridge, put it in, my daughter-in-law went downstairs immediately, how to explain, what did you cook it with?

It's not hard enough to pour another pot, and brush one more, it's simply cheaper for the second brother, and the nephews and nieces still have to care about it, and the second sister-in-law helped clean it.

Packed out two big bowls and faced the daughter-in-law who went downstairs, "You eat first, I'll send it to the second brother, it's enough for him to eat for four mouthfuls." ”

"It smells so good, huh? What is this way of eating, isn't Laba porridge all sweet? Ding Qiunan looked at this "Laba porridge" strangely.

"You just say you don't eat or not, who rules? Some of them are good to eat, and you know how many people rely on drinking water to make ends meet, and they don't have a meal a day. ”

While training his daughter-in-law, Xiao Yuan covered the lid and padd it with a broken towel.

As soon as I entered the gate of the courtyard, on the left hand side was Xiao Donglin's inverted room, and he was brushing his teeth and washing his face in the corner.

"Open the door, it's hot! The seafood porridge I just made, I made too much, just enough for your four to eat, just use it as Laba porridge, anyway, it's all porridge, and some can eat it. Xiao Yuan hurriedly asked the second brother to open the door, everyone closed the door to maintain the temperature, and another one, how embarrassing it would be if the sister-in-law didn't get up.

"You can't put more cushions, you can wait for a while, okay, let's put it on the table quickly." Xiao Donglin hadn't rinsed his mouth yet, and he sprayed toothpaste foam as soon as he spoke.

Xiao Yuan put it down and ran away, how good it was to go back to eat porridge with his wife, what are you doing here.

Xiao Donglin rinsed his mouth and entered the house, his daughter Huazi had already gotten up, confused, "Dad, what is so fragrant?" I am hungry. ”

"The seafood porridge sent by your third uncle, Dad doesn't know what seafood porridge is, wash your hands and face, rinse your mouth, and Dad will put it in a bowl for you." Xiao Donglin doesn't know what seafood porridge is, he has only eaten hairtail fish in his hometown, that is, once or twice.

"His father, the third child is gone? Why didn't you sit down, what is this, so fragrant. Hu Xiangju came out with her son in her arms, and the little guy also smelled it, and pointed to go.

"That guy hurriedly brought it, screamed hotly, put it down and ran away, just married and young, sticky." Xiao Donglin took his son with a smile and asked his daughter-in-law to wash his face and brush his teeth, and his daughter-in-law entered the city and forced him to brush his teeth every morning.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not good to hear. If my brother and daughter-in-law walk to the door in one step, I'll see where your big brother's face goes! I'll pretend to be for you, and I'll wash my face when I see that my daughter doesn't get burned.

My God, crabs, prawns can still cook porridge, what is this, don't you say it's really fragrant, close the door tightly, isn't it hated to spread out, several families have run out of food. "Hu Xiangju is in the yard all day, at most crossing the street to Dongping's house, chatting with her daughter-in-law, she must know the situation.

"This kid, where did he learn a good cook, and the army is not available. I smell it all greedy, look at my son's saliva, that one looks like a river mussel, it should be in the sea. Xiao Donglin said while wiping his son's saliva.

"He's such a powerful person, why don't you learn quickly, besides, he's been out for more than ten years, and it's impossible to fight every day! Huazi, you slow down, it's too hot. Hu Xiangju hurriedly grabbed the girl who wanted to rush up.

Xiao Yuan accompanied his daughter-in-law to finish eating, he created his own eight-treasure porridge, and did not forget to ridicule his daughter-in-law who ate cleanly, and her mouth was very honest!

After eating, I went to Di'anmen, and dried up the newly built wall a little, it was also a festival, and people helped them to work, and they had to be kind to them, all in order to earn food, Xiao Yuan carried two silver carps of more than ten catties, a bottle of soybean oil, and let them improve.

Then I went to work in the factory, the office has been moved, one big and one small, and Jia Dongxu and his family are sitting outside.

Jia Dongxu also listened to his efforts, taking advantage of the new policy, he accepted a wild boar of more than 200 catties and a domestic pig of nearly 200 catties, which is considered to be very hard and worthy of praise.

Xiao Yuan arranged for him to follow the security department to learn to be a nephew, and he could run farther slowly, and he could let him dock with Xiao Dongfang next year, there are still many prey over there, after all, it is the Yanshan Mountain Range.

I went to talk to Director Yang for a while, arranged a suitable place, and it was almost ready to be transported, and the living ones were raised first, and it was impossible to pull them over at one time for a hundred times, and everyone understood this truth.

Waiting for tomorrow's daughter-in-law to arrange for work, he will start transporting a batch, the dead are easy to do, but the living are not lucky, and a car can't pull much.
