My documentary really doesn't want high ratings

She had no intention of going home at all.

Hu Xiaoqing was busy at home alone at this time.

Perhaps it was because of one person that Hu Xiaoqing decorated the house with rich colors.

Spring Festival couplets are pasted on the door, and there are many instant meals in the kitchen.

Hu Xiaoqing looked at the equipment she had prepared on the coffee table.

“Snacks, fruits, spicy strips....”

"Bang Bang Tied"

The sudden knock on the door made Hu Xiaoqing a little confused.

takeout?express delivery?

It seems that I don't have anything.

When I came to the door, I took a look through the cat's eyes.

Hu Xiaoqing was taken aback.

Song Zhou?

What is she here for?

Outside

"If you ask me to say Xu Wen, you are just being paranoid. How could Xiaoqing not go back? Even if you don't want to go back for the New Year, you can come to me..."

Song Zhou was on the phone, but he hadn't finished speaking.

Seeing the door open in front of her, Hu Xiaoqing looked at her in surprise.

The two looked at each other speechlessly, looking awkward for a moment.

Only Song Zhou's voice came from the mobile phone held by his ear.

"Don't tell her, I told you to find her..."

Song Zhou hung up the phone quickly, with a surprised expression on his face.

"Xiaoqing, it's really you!"

"Song Zhou, why are you here?"

Hu Xiaoqing looked surprised.

Song Zhou said with a smile.

"I saw a person on the street yesterday and thought it looked like you. I just wanted to take a look today, but I didn't expect it to be you."

"Oh...that...my parents are on a business trip abroad, I'm too lazy to run away, so I just..."

Hu Xiaoqing racked her brains for words.

Song Zhou ignored him, and took Hu Xiaoqing's arm with a smile.

"So what, I've wanted to invite you to my house for the New Year a long time ago, and when I get the chance, let's go to my house."

"This... I'm actually alone..."

Hu Xiaoqing opened her mouth, wanting to refuse.

But Song Zhou obviously didn't play his cards according to common sense, and directly interrupted Song Zhou's words.

"Let's go, our house is ready, it's lively!"

Song Zhou was grinning, and dragged Hu Xiaoqing out involuntarily.

Hu Xiaoqing was at war with heaven and man in her heart.

Although she has many friends, no one knows that she spends many festivals that symbolize reunion by herself.

As proud as she is, she never speaks out on her own initiative, nor will she show it to the outside world.

Whenever someone asked, she would also avoid the topic.

But Song Zhou's sudden visit this time made her very entangled.

Just because she celebrates the festival alone doesn't mean she doesn't want this kind of reunion atmosphere.

"Let me tell you that our family has a lot of activities on New Year's Eve..."

Song Zhou pulled Hu Xiaoqing and chattered.

Hu Xiaoqing finally nodded.

After tidying up, he followed Song Zhou downstairs.

She was a little nervous about the upcoming itinerary, after all, she hadn't had this kind of activity for a long time.

But... there are also some expectations.

Inside Xu Wen's house.

Seeing the message from Song Zhou, Xu Wen smiled and turned off the phone.

Underneath Hu Xiaoqing's superficially strong character, she actually has her own difficulties.

Some of the pampered and domineering personalities are raised by their parents, while others are protective shells built by themselves to protect themselves.

Xu Wen didn't know what happened to Hu Xiaoqing.

But at least she has experienced society, and Xu Wen felt something was wrong with Hu Xiaoqing's hesitating last time.

"Son, come over and get ready for dinner."

At this time, Xu's mother's voice interrupted Xu Wen's thoughts.

Xu Wen nodded with a smile.

"Come on."

"Today's meal is so rich!"

Xu Wen looked at a large table of dishes and said with a smile.

Xu's mother raised her head in satisfaction.

"That's right, wash your hands and prepare to eat."

Except for Xu Wen, Song Zhou and others who came to the small New Year's Eve dinner table.

There are also viewers who had heated discussions on the Internet because of the broadcast time of "A Bite of Tongue".

Among them is college student Xiaoli.

She had just finished eating, and she had already come to the sofa with fruit.

He took the familiar lazy pose.

As a viewer of "Bite of Tongue", she has long known that watching "Bite of Tongue" is a kind of suffering if there is nothing around her that can satisfy her stomach.

This is all raised experience!

As the boring commercials on the TV ended, the familiar theme song sounded.

The sixth episode of "A Bite of China" is officially launched!

Chapter 138: Harmony of the five flavors (only one update today)

Just after the theme song ended, Xiaoli put the dried mango to her mouth.

As soon as the picture changes, the battle between the upper and lower teeth begins.

"bi~"

The screen in front of her eyes suddenly went black, and Xiao Li was taken aback for a moment.

"Huh? Is there a power outage?"

"Why is the electricity off? I turned off the TV. I just sat in front of the TV after eating. Go out for a walk, hang out with friends, what does it look like to stay at home every day?"

Mother reprimanded as she stood aside holding the remote control.

Xiaoli knew that this was not the time to be angry with her mother, so she quickly apologized.

"I'll go out immediately after watching this documentary."

As he said that, he took away the remote control controlled by his mother.

Mom shook her head, walked to the dining table and began to clean up the dishes.

"Day by day, I don't know what's so good about a broken documentary..."

Ignoring her mother's nagging, Xiaoli quickly turned on the TV.

Hearing the familiar narration, Xiao Li breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whether it is in Chinese food or in Chinese, the magical word "taste" is full of infinite possibilities..."

"In addition to taste and smell, in Huaguo culture, the definition and perception of taste both originate from food and go beyond food..."

"That is to say, apart from our tongue and nose, the heart of our Chinese people is also able to perceive the taste..."

From Guangzhou to Shanghai, from Xiangjiang to the mainland, high-rise buildings and street corners, vegetable markets and high-end supermarkets are constantly intertwined.

From stir-fried vegetables to steamed fish, from soup to dried bacon, different cooking methods also appear in turn.

At the end of this group of condensed pictures, the title of this episode also appears.

【A blend of five flavors】

"Like the whole world, Chinese also uses [sweet] to express joy and happiness. This is because the latest taste that can be felt by the tip of the human tongue is [sweet]...."

"The substance tends to be derived from a substance [sugar]..."

On Suzhou Street in Dahao Ancient City, Santou City.

Ah Hong's food store stands here quietly.

"To Ah Hong, sugar not only means sweets but also everything else. Early in the morning, Ah Hong is ready to boil sugar..."

"Sugar scallion pancakes, a famous traditional dessert in Chaozhou, Ah Hong is going to make more sugar scallions, because tomorrow is a grand local festival - Winter Festival...."

Time has roughly preserved the rustic colors and slow streets of this small town.

Leisure old people sit in the gazebo, and students after school pass by on their bicycles.

This scene Xiaoli is a little familiar and a little strange.

I saw it when I was a child, but I have a deep impression of this stock as I develop.

But the mother, who was watching the bowls and chopsticks behind her, slowed down.

Staring at the screen, a flash of reminiscence flashed in his eyes.

The scene that is unfamiliar to Xiaoli is deeply rooted in her bone marrow.

"In Xiashan, not far from Dahao, A Zhi's duck preserved shop is very busy, and the charcoal fire in the wooden barrel used to smoke the duck is always burning..."

"Azhi's family has always maintained the traditional method of smoked duck. This is a unique secret recipe that Azhi inherited from his father..."

The man in the picture separates the duck from the middle and hollows out the inside, and adds a sauce mixed with brown sugar, five-spice powder, vinegar, salt and other seasonings.

The reddish-brown sauce gave the pink-and-white duck a new look.

It covered up the smell of meat, and also changed Xiaoli's memory of duck taste.

"Hang the marinated duck neatly on the inner wall of the wooden barrel, bake it with charcoal fire for 40 minutes, and the sauce fully infiltrates the inside of the duck..."

"The fuel used to smoke the duck is bagasse. There is a little sugar in the sugarcane crumbs, which can make the duck skin sweet and also make the duck itself darker..."

The changed duck is baked in a wooden barrel, and the reddish brown becomes the main color of the duck while the fat fades away.

The flesh becomes firmer visible to the naked eye, and one can imagine the feeling of being bitten between the teeth.

Then a handful of sugarcane crumbs were sprinkled on the charcoal fire, and the white smoke that burst out instantly enveloped all the ducks.

The pungent smoke gives off a sweet feeling for some reason.

"Sufficient sunshine and wet rainy seasons have made Huaguo Lingnan the main sugarcane production area. The sweetness of sucrose comes from the fructose and glucose in the molecule, which is brought about by the photosynthesis of the sun...."
