218 explosions, relics, new year
On Wangjiatun'er's side, many villagers are more introverted, traditional, and old-fashioned, and many things will not be said directly.
For example-
Wang Yuan's courtyard is a newly built house, and he also married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a child, but in fact, the family is separated.
But it won't be said that "separation" is dripping, and many words will inevitably be too raw if they are spoken.
Wang Yuan left the two sand and half chickens and a hare in her mother's yard, and Li Yan was a little unhappy that she still wanted to stew meat.
But it's not easy to bring it back.
But after a while, the old mother actually brought back the three prey, and teased the little girl before leaving.
"My mom is good, isn't she? Look, I've brought it again. Wang Yuan put the three prey in the hall and planned to boil water to remove their hair.
"Yes, yes...... But Xiaoyuan, let me tell you something...... Before I conceived Xiaoting, your mother probably guessed that the reason why I couldn't conceive a child was my problem. But your mother didn't say it explicitly. ”
"What?"
Wang Yuan was silent for a moment, a chill rose from his heels and finally jumped onto Tianling Gai'er, he couldn't help but be afraid for a while - if the conflict broke out between his mother and his daughter-in-law, what would happen when the time came.
A husband is caught in the middle, many things are difficult to deal with, and the daughter-in-law naturally hopes that her husband will support her, but on the other side is the mother who gave birth to herself, and if she can't marry her daughter-in-law, she will really forget her mother.
"Whew~ Don't mention it when it's over, face the lake on the hour, beat a few eggs inside, and let's fry some rabbit meat and chicken pieces at noon."
"Okay."
The rabbit and the sand and half chicken were cleaned up, chopped into pieces, grasped with seasonings, marinated in a basin for half an hour, and finally coated with liquid and fried in an oil pan.
Zilazila~
After a while, the meat pieces will float up, take them out with a tongli (zhaoli) to control the oil, sprinkle with chili powder, cumin powder and eat.
"Come and taste a piece of swallows, how is it delicious?"
"Well, it smells so good!"
Li Yan took a piece of golden fried lump and ate it, and when she bit a little bit of the meat inside, the aroma of the seasoning, the aroma of the meat, and the aroma of the egg were mixed together, so that Li Yan couldn't wait to swallow her tongue.
"This is also so delicious, my piece is chicken, let's set up a stall on the big market, and sell fried chicken nuggets will definitely make money."
"If you die in the cold weather, you can earn some hard-earned money...... Turn off the stove, it's the last pot. ”
As soon as the last pot of fried pieces was fished out, there was a sound outside the courtyard.
"Second brother and second brother, what is delicious, I can smell the fragrance."
It turned out to be her sister Xiaodie, Xiaohua and Zhang Zhongshan's youngest daughter Xiaoyu came over.
Li Yan felt that it was normal for the children to eat something, and put it on the table and invited them to eat fried meat, the three little girls were super happy to eat, and Xiaohua still sighed her fingers after eating a piece.
Fluttershy touched the big white cat that came with her, then took a piece of fried chicken and handed it to Xiaoting's mouth, "Sister-in-law, can she eat it?"
"She's too young to eat."
"Meow~"
The white cat stretches her tone and pulls Fluttershy's arm as if to say she won't eat it for me.
I made another dish of braised pork, stir-fried a few home-cooked dishes, and then ate it with stewed rice.
The little girl Xiaoyu was very embarrassed, and she only ate here after Li Yan's best efforts to keep her - obviously her family's food was not as good as Wang Yuan's family, and her eyes lit up when she looked at those meat dishes.
However, after eating a few bites of meat, she was embarrassed to eat again, and quietly observed Wang Yuan and Li Yan's reactions, blushing and began to eat vegetarian dishes.
"Eat, eat, eat, eat."
Li Yan sandwiched vegetables for Xiaoyu, and soon the meat was piled up in the latter's small bowl: "Xiaoyu, what kind of food do you often eat at home?"
"Eat wowotou, big cakes."
The little girl was very innocent and had no heart, asking what to say, but after she finished speaking, she lowered her little head with low self-esteem.
Before, she thought that every household was the same as her own, but after seeing Wang Yuan's food, she was shocked to realize that people are really different.
If her family can fry a meat dish in a meal, even if the meat dish is added with shredded meat, it is enough to be considered a good meal.
Wang Yuan also understands that Zhang Zhongshan's family conditions are not good, his family moved over from Guannei too late, although he found him an errand, but it is not easy to raise a family, and he has to save money and so on.
Suddenly.
While a few people were eating, a shout came from the street: "Little fish! Small fish!
”
"My mom is looking for me."
The little girl was so frightened that she didn't dare to eat, so she got off the kang and put on her shoes and hurriedly ran out, Wang Yuan followed out and found that Zhongshan's daughter-in-law was beating her:
"Let you run around, I didn't know there was a dog stealer recently, and then let the dog thief steal you......"
Zhongshan's daughter-in-law felt that her daughter was so intimate, and she was not obedient at all, so she snapped~ and slapped the little girl's back twice.
The little girl wanted to cry, and the tears of grievance swirled in her eyes.
Wang Yuan hurriedly persuaded: "Auntie, listen to me, don't blame the child, I want to keep her for dinner...... This is the most cooked rice? Is Uncle Chungsan back? ”
Even if this matter is taken over, Zhongshan's daughter-in-law smiled and touched Xiaoyu's hair:
"I'm drinking at home when I'm back, Xiaoyuan, you can also go to my house, drink some with the old man of my family, and there is nothing to do anyway for the New Year."
Suddenly.
Rumble~
On the other side of the river in the south, there was a loud bang, and the houses in the village were shaking, and the glass made a snapping sound, and some of them cracked.
"Oh my god!"
Zhongshan's daughter-in-law sat down on the ground in fright, hugging her little daughter tightly.
After the loud noise, Wang Yuan's ears were also buzzing, and for a while, the dogs, chickens, and donkeys in the tunzi also barked, which was lively.
"Son~Son~~"
"What's going on!"
"I don't know, this sound shook my cats."
"I'm sitting on the edge of the kang and putting on my shoes, and I almost got planted on the ground."
Villagers from every household came out, some of them still holding rice bowls, and there was rice on the corners of their mouths.
Wang Yuan and a few people ran to the south, only to see a group of people standing on the river gang, it turned out to be Liu Hui and them.
When I asked, I found out that it was Liu Hui and they had already taken advantage of the good sunshine to come out for dinner, and after coming to the river, some people wondered if the ice in the river could be blown up, so Liu Hui went to the house and brought six arm-thick cannons.
Liu Hui put his hands together and bared his teeth stupidly:
"Hey, this ice is really thick, six cannons are tied together, and they didn't explode!"
The man next to him said: "If you use the kind of detonator that opened the mountain to blow it up, you will definitely be able to blow it up!" This year, the gang of guys on the farm came to the river with a detonator to blow up fish, and one detonator went down to the water column and jumped as high as a two-story house, and a large number of fish died. ”
"Roll the calves, you did a desperate job, and you blew up all the small fish seedlings, so there will be big fish in the future?"
Suddenly.
The old village chief came running from the north, jumping and scolding the street, and a loud noise not only made the cattle almost startled, but also almost sent away some of the weaker old people.
Liu Hui and the others knew that they were unreasonable, and they all ran away at once.
Liu Hui pulled Wang Yuan around from the east and went back along the trail:
"Xiaoyuan, can you be more careful...... Recently, there was a dog thief in our tunzi, and the half-big wolf of the pillar's house was stolen, and the distressed pillar sat on the ground and cried, crying miserably. ”
"Oh?"
Wang Yuan's heart tightened, relatively speaking, winter is indeed a frequent season for dog stealing, especially when the Chinese New Year is approaching, many relatives and friends naturally want to drink wine and eat meat when they get together.
Dog meat will become the choice of many people.
And when a group of people get together, the courage of other people who have arch fire will also increase, and those who didn't dare to steal dogs now dare to do so.
"I see, thanks."
After parting at the intersection, Wang Yuan stepped on the snow and creaked home, thinking about this year's "dog skin coat for Su-27 fighter" all the way.
Yes, there is not only the exchange of canned food for planes, but also the exchange of dog fur coats for Su-27 fighters, and the replacement of 24 aircraft, although fewer people have heard about it, but perhaps this matter is more significant.
The Su-27 is a very, very advanced third-generation fighter.
Before the Su-27, there were no third-generation fighters in China.
"The dogs in Henan, Anhui, Lu and other provinces can be regarded as making a great contribution to national defense, belch~"
But this also shows how short of clothes the north is, and even the most powerful fighters have been used to change clothes.
After returning home, he told Li Yanyi about the matter, and the latter pouted: "I just eat too much, and I mess around every day."
In the sound of firecrackers, the old and the new ushered in the new year, stabbing ~ tore off a page of the old-fashioned calendar card, and grew a year older.
Parents still have some nostalgia for their eldest daughter's going abroad, and Wang Yuan can only help persuade them.
Wang Qing's going to study abroad is not a completely bad thing, and even from Wang Qing's point of view, it may be a good thing, the opportunity is too rare, it can be said to be a place that can only be grabbed by breaking the head.
Of course, if she goes out and doesn't come back, it will definitely not be a good thing for the country.
As for whether he will come back, I can't say for sure...... When I see the foreign world of flowers, I am likely to have a huge impact on my thinking, and it is difficult to predict what will become when the time comes.
In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, I have been visiting relatives and friends, eating and drinking, and chatting is still quite relaxed.
2 p.m. on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Wang Yuan, who was idle, sat next to his kang table, put a fried dumpling in his mouth to chew, took a sip of wine, and then fiddled with a small Buddha statue in his hand.
The statue is about 10 centimeters high, and it looks like a stone from a distance, but it looks like jade to the touch, and there are some twisted words like tadpoles on the back.
The only pity is that the nose of the Buddha statue was bumped, which is really distressing.
"Meow~"
The big white cat didn't know where to come back from a circle, jumped lightly on the kang, and rubbed Wang Yuan's hand with his big head while snoring.
"Snorr~"
"Meow~"
The big white cat looked at a plate of fried dumplings on the table greedily, screamed and continued to rub Wang Yuan's hand.
"What are you itching to rub my hands, give you a dumpling to eat and play."
Bell bell bell ~
At this time, there was the sound of bicycles outside the yard, and there was a faint sound of conversation, it turned out that Li Yan, who went to catch up with Aunt Yue, Zhuzi's daughter-in-law, Zhou Li, Zhang Qian, and Yang Hua's daughter-in-law, came back.
She entered the house with a large bag and a small bag, and said in surprise:
"Yo~ your own fried dumplings, you are quite good at eating, drinking wine and eating fried dumplings, you can really enjoy it."
"That is, no one can be bitter if they are bitter, the more you drink dumplings with wine, the more you drink."
"How many dumplings have you fried, is it enough for the two of us to eat? Why don't I burn a little more......"
Knowing that the fried dumplings were enough to eat, Li Yan didn't cook dry food, and made some egg soup on the gas stove.
The two chatted while eating dumplings and drinking egg soup, Wang Yuan said:
"You old ladies are really bold, and you go to Baiwu Township to catch up with the big set, how far away, and you are not afraid of being caught halfway."
"Cut~ There are six of us, one or two old men can't beat us. What are you looking at? Buddha? ”
Li Yan glanced at the Buddha statue in Wang Yuan's hand, and it was like a mud kneading, and she lost interest in an instant.
"Swallow, don't underestimate this thing, the ancient Buddha of Western Xia! I brought it back from Sul. ”
Wang Yuan squatted the Buddha statue on the table, took a big bite of the dumplings, ate two in one bite, chewed a few times and swallowed it into his stomach and then ate the next bite, and soon a plate of dumplings was eaten.
"Mom, it's really appetizing to watch you eat...... Then again, is this ancient Buddha worth anything? ”
"Money? It's vulgar! A lot of things can't be measured in money. ”
"Cut ~ you don't have garlic."
Li Yan pursed her lips and slapped Wang Yuan's arm with a smile, she remembered that she also bought some meat buns and came back, and brought about 20 small meat buns to the table to eat with Wang Yuan.
The meat buns are very small, about the same size as dumplings.
"Tell me about that little Buddha statue, I want to hear it."
"Okay, then I'll tell you that Western Xia was a country nearly a thousand years ago, on the Ningxia side, and was later destroyed by Genghis Khan's imperial conquest, and he ordered the slaughter of the country after it was captured......
"Genghis Khan, I know, the Golden Family."
"The king capital of Western Xia is called Blackwater City, also called Devil's City, and this thing was dug up by the Russians there."
Wang Yuan smiled and said:
"In addition to this thing, I also got some Tangut pamphlets, Buddha statues, thangkas, and Persian fragments from Sul.
Some people preach that there is a big secret inside, a big secret that Genghis Khan longed for! I don't know if it's true or not.
It's a pity, it is said that three days before the capture of Blackwater City, Genghis Khan died......"
Prosperous antiques, troubled gold.
Now the antiques on Su L's side are really worthless, a cotton coat can be exchanged for a bunch, Wang Yuan has collected a lot of antiques in the past few months, some of which were snatched by the Russians from the Qing Dynasty, and there are also traditional Russian cultural relics.
For example, what Catherine II used, and so on.
It's still quite collectible, and it's okay to watch and play, or to auction it out later.
"I'm going to go to Sul this year, it's a rare opportunity to make more money, and buy more antiques, which will be much more valuable than gold in a few years...... By the way, Swallow, do you like diamonds? There's also a diamond mine over there. ”
"Huh? What are diamonds? ”
Li Yan looked confused, she had never heard of diamonds.
