There's nothing in the world better than Mom's cooking.

Jian Lu wrapped the purchased star anise, bay leaves, grass cole, and tangerine peel into gauze in advance, tied it tightly, and made it into a spice bag.

Then peel the garlic, slice the ginger, cut the green onion into sections, stir-fry in the pot until fragrant, remove and discard, add rock sugar, soy sauce and cooking wine to the base oil. Bring to a boil for a while, add another pot of water and add the spice packet.

"Brother Cheng, bring me the beer."

Entering the city today, a few people were lucky enough to buy a bottle of beer at a state-run hotel. Now beer is difficult to buy, most of them can only take the basin and barrel to the brewery gate to line up to break the bulk, the bottle is basically only supplied to state-run hotels and guest houses, fortunately Cheng Zheng has acquaintances in the state-run hotel, and only bought a bottle of beer thanks to the relationship.

Cheng Zheng pressed on the table, and the lid of the beer bottle fell to the ground, and the aroma of wine gradually wafted out from the mouth of the bottle.

"How much?"

Jian Lu watched Cheng Zheng pour beer into the pot, "Half a bottle is about the same, you can drink the remaining half bottle~"

After that, he smiled sweetly at him, as if to show that he was too understanding, and left him half a bottle.

Cheng Zheng was stunned, rarely saw his daughter-in-law still smiling coquettishly, and pinched her cheek.

Chicken wings, chicken legs, chicken feet, duck wings, duck feet, duck heads, chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, duck gizzards, duck hearts, and pork ribs, all of which are put into the pot and gradually submerged in the red brine.

With the lid on the pot, nothing could be seen, but both seemed to have smelled the fragrance.

"Mom, it's so fragrant!"

"Wait for two or three hours and you'll be able to eat."

"Good!" Shuangshuang nodded excitedly, turned around and wanted to go out to play.

"Wait, wait, wait." Jian Lu stopped her daughter, "It's been so long since we've been out today, let's do our homework together." ”

Shuangshuang: "...?" ”

Shuangshuang and his mother sat side by side, and they set up tables and chairs in the yard to do their homework, saying that it was homework, but it turned out that their mother was writing a letter, and Shuangshuang was very sad.

"Mom, you didn't do your homework!"

"I'm done." For the first time, Jian Lu found a sense of superiority in elementary school students, "Look at you haven't finished writing yet!" You can't do this, you have to catch up with Mom. You see, I'm writing a letter to your third aunt, which is actually similar to your essay. ”

"Okay." When you think about it, it seems to be about the same.

Immersed in writing essays seriously, they both stopped from time to time to bite the pen, thought seriously and continued.

And Jian Lu wrote the letter quickly, and she didn't stop brushing and brushing.

She wrote a letter this time mainly to reply to Jian Xin, supporting her to do ginseng planting, now is the outlet of doing business, you have to seize the opportunity, you can't waste such a unique condition.

Because Jian Xin and the others don't have much money in their hands, in other words, they don't have start-up capital at all. Jian Lu finally mentioned that she had invested 10,000 yuan in her ginseng plantation, which was paid in three installments, which was basically enough for them to prepare in advance.

"Third sister, it's best for you to pull the eldest sister and the second sister together, everyone is a sister and have a foil, it's better than cooperating with outsiders. In the future, the money will be calculated according to the percentage..."

In the letter, Jian Lu analyzed in detail for her how to run the factory, how to manage, how to clarify responsibilities, her eldest sister, second sister and third sister are all good, and they have often sent themselves some food over the years, and they are all worried about each other.

Wait for a letter to be written, and Shuangshuang's essay will be written.

"Here, Mommy." Jian Lu put down the letter paper and picked up her daughter's composition.

Both proudly, "Mom, I wrote very well." ”

Essay Title – "The Sea"

Hey, it's quite meaningful, after all, there seems to be something to be able to use only one word as a title, Jian Lu thought.

"I live by the sea, I have been here since I was born, there is a big seaside, and there is a long water in the sea, wide water, blue water, white water. Some of the water is very fierce, and it will knock stones, and I am a little afraid of her. Some of the water is so cute, she will run to the beach to play with me, I like her, and some of the water will bring me beautiful shells and delicious shrimp.

The sea is very quiet sometimes, I have to call her several times before she answers me, and sometimes she is very excited, and she looks more excited than when Uncle Liang next door beats his brother, but no matter what she is, I like her. ”

Jian Lu looked at the crooked elementary school font and immature writing that she had seen the big sea from a small time, and she was moved for a while.

No matter how simple the words are, no matter how immature the writing is, the feelings are sincere and abundant.

"Do you like the sea so much?" Jian Lu lowered her head and looked at Shuangshuang gently.

"I like it!" There seemed to be stars in his eyes, and he looked at his mother very seriously, "I like it so much!" I like the sea the most, more than Huahua, Mr. Wu, coconut, and pencils. ”

Cheng Zheng listened to it for a while, how did these come to be named? The wine is weird!

"The sea loves you, too, and we're both the most liked." Jian Lu touched her daughter's head, soft.

"That's... Mom, can I go swimming? "Both of them are excited.

"I can't."

Shuangshuang: "..."

"But Brother Dunzi, they're all going!"

Shuangshuang is talking about the winter swimming activities carried out on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year after the New Year.

"You're a little older, you're going to freeze, you can go swimming in the summer when the adults are watching, not in the winter."

Cheng Zheng looked at the little face of his daughter who lost his life in an instant, and comforted her, "If you really want to swim..."

"Daddy!" Both looked at Dad expectantly, as if Dad was going to agree Hey!

"You can have a good time in the bath."

Shuangshuang: "..."

Angry!

——

A pot of winged paws had been boiling in the brine for nearly three hours, and as soon as Jian Lu opened the lid of the pot, she smelled a domineering scent of brine, which invaded everyone's snort strongly.

"Oops, it smells so good." Aunt Wang was watering vegetables in the yard, and she couldn't help but swallow when she smelled this smell, and hurriedly went into the house to take a look.

A large pot of dark brown brine gurgled and bubbling, and the meat that had been boiled and soaked in the brine for three hours was dyed red, looking tender and delicious.

As soon as the colander is scooped, a large spoonful of chicken wings, duck wings, duck hearts, and pork ribs are put into the basin, and after four spoonfuls, the basin is full.

"Taste it."

The marinated chicken wings were so soft that even the elderly Mrs. Wang didn't have much trouble eating them, and the chicken wings seemed to melt as soon as they were sipped, wrapped in the salty aroma of brine, so delicious that you swallowed your tongue quickly.

"It tastes so good!"

Eat braised vegetables, the entrance is the salty and mellow taste of the brine, strong and domineering to occupy every inch of the mouth, after tasting carefully, you can experience the soft and rotten flavor of the meat, all kinds of flavors are intertwined layer by layer, hooking people to be greedy.

The family started directly, one piece after another, and couldn't stop eating.

Both hands are oily, eating and eating, I feel that my fingers are all marinated, put it to my nose and smell it, and stretched out my hand, "Mom, you smell it, my hands are so fragrant!" ”

"That's fine, when you're hungry at night, you gnaw your fingers." Jian Lu teased her.

"Don't!" Shuangshuang thinks it's a big child, so she doesn't want to eat her fingers, it's so embarrassing~

Oh no, except for the fingers that are now shivering when nibbling on ribs.

——

A few days later, the Spring Festival of 1980 arrived in everyone's anticipation.

Shuangshuang received a lot of New Year's money on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and she held her change jar and shook it, which was very weighty.

Take it out and count it, there are thirty-one pieces and eight cents and five!

"I'm too rich~" How much delicious food can I buy!

Dunzi heard this at the door of her house, "Who is so rich? ”

"Brother Dunzi!" Shuangshuang remembered what her mother had said before, that she couldn't go around saying that she was rich, so she immediately shut up, "I don't have any money." ”

"Hahaha." Dunzi took out a five-cent one from his trouser pocket, and then took out a five-cent one, and put it in his hands, "This five-cent is the New Year's money I gave you." ”

"Thank you, Brother Dunzi!" Shuangshuang likes to collect New Year's money the most.

"This is what I gave to your brother Chenchen." Dunzi handed over the second Zhang Wumao, "He didn't go back for the New Year when he just entered the military academy this year, and he didn't contact us, so I gave it for him." ”

"Okay!" Of course, Shuangshuang has to accept it, "Thank you, Brother Dunzi, huhu~"

That's a lot of money!

During the Chinese New Year, the adults are busy, the children are happy, and the most delicious food of the year is eaten at this time, and the face of the New Year's money is smiling. On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the winter swimming activities organized by the team also began.

This time, everyone signed up, mainly in the shallow water, swimming to the ferry, about a distance of 100 meters, and snapping on the side of the boat to turn back, comparing the speed.

Where can the people who live by the sea all the year round wait, sign up for winter swimming one by one, take off their shirts, and a fierce man plunges in.

In February, the sea was still cold, and they were both held by their father and sat on his neck, which was the highest position in the audience.

"Dad, that uncle is shaking."

"You're shaking even more." Cheng Zheng pinched his daughter's arm, "We won't let you go, is it for your good?" ”

Both looked at the appearance of everyone who went into the water and shivered after coming up, nodded slowly, turned his head and poked his skin, his skin is thin, and he is indeed not frost resistant, so he still doesn't go.

On the other side, Dunzi had already appeared on the stage, plunging into the water, and both of them instantly became excited and shouted loudly, "Brother Dunzi, come on!" ”

She didn't think her voice was loud enough, so she asked Juanjuan and them to join in, Juanjuan gave face and cheered for Brother Dunzi.

"Sister Qingqing, you shout too." Both looked at Lu Qing, she felt that Sister Qingqing was bigger than herself, and she must have shouted louder.

Lu Qing: "..."

"It's enough for you to cheer him on."

Both struggled to get off their father's neck, pulling their friends together, "Sister Qingqing, let's shout together!" Otherwise, Brother Dunzi will be bored to swim. ”

Lu Qing looked at Shuangshuang, this little girl is really persistent, can only add a sentence in a low voice, "Dunzi... Come on. ”

"If you want to cheer on your voice, we swimmers are not bored."

The voice that suddenly appeared in his ears exploded, Lu Qing turned his head to look over, how could all the piers that were still in the water just now come out? Still... Not dressed yet.

Lu Qing glanced at him and immediately turned his head with red ears.

Shuangshuang was not a little shy, and immediately ran over, "Brother Dunzi, you are so amazing!" Hey, why do you have ribs here? ”

Chapter 102

Heng Heng handed a towel to Dunzi, and when he dried himself, he simply and quickly put on his shirt, don't think that he didn't see it just now, Lu Qing's face changed.
