Kneeling in front of my wife’s tombstone and crying bitterly, I was reborn

Just as Zhao Deming changed his mind, Shen Qiansan was already preparing to stir-fry the next dish.

Looking at the side dishes, it is just an ordinary stir-fried pickled cabbage with dried chili peppers.

When Zhao Deming saw it, he quickly said: "Stir-fried sauerkraut, I'll make this dish."

Shen Qiansan had long seen Zhao Deming eager to try, and she had been waiting for him to speak while cooking.

Hearing this, he smiled slightly and said, "Okay, let's also try the dishes cooked by Mayor Zhao."

As he spoke, he stepped aside to make room for Zhao Deming.

"Ha ha……"

Zhao Deming smiled heartily and said: "When I went to the countryside to become an educated youth, I lived in Lao Tan's house in Erdaogou. At that time, I learned to make pickled vegetables from Lao Tan..."

As he spoke, he seemed to be recalling the time when he went to the countryside.

At that time, there was still a big movement, and he was one of the first batch of intellectual youths to go to the countryside. In this era of poverty and poverty, it was a rare luxury to be able to eat a portion of lard-fried sauerkraut.

After hearing this, Shen Qiansan looked at Zhao Deming with some surprise and said, "Mayor Zhao, are you still visiting the countryside in Erdaogou?"

Zhao Deming said while cooking sauerkraut in the pot: "Yes, I went to the countryside in Erdaogou in 1966."

After speaking, he looked at Shen Qiansan and asked with a smile: "What? You know Erdaogou!"

Shen Qiansan seemed to be lost in memories, nodded and said, "My hometown is in Miaowan, right next to Erdaogou."

"Oh..." Zhao Deming said: "So your hometown is Miaowan!"

"That's right! It's only three miles from Erdaogou to Miaowan. I remember that there is a big yew in Miaowan, and there is a small temple next to it."

"At that time, we educated youths often ran there to play. Especially in June and July every year, the trees were full of fruits, and the red color was particularly attractive..."

At this point, he paused, with a sad look on his face.

Shen Qiansan noticed it, but didn't ask any more questions.

There was a guess in my mind.

According to Zhao Deming, he went to Erdaogou to go to the countryside in 1966. Shen Qiansan was only two or three years old at that time, and he has no memory of that time at all.

However, after he grew up a little, he once went to the tall yew tree and saw the bright red yew fruits. He couldn't help but climbed up the tree to pick and eat them, but was driven away. The father was beaten severely.

Later he learned that a few years ago, an educated youth picked and ate fruits from this big yew tree and died of poisoning.

From then on, people in Miaowan knew that the yew fruit should not be eaten casually.

In fact, yew fruit is indeed poisonous. If eaten in large quantities, it will cause serious side effects such as inhibiting bone marrow hematopoietic function and decreasing white blood cells.

But later, Shen Qiansan learned that although the yew fruit is poisonous, it is rich in taxol, protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other minerals and vitamins. Correct and appropriate consumption has diuretic, hypoglycemic, antioxidant and other effects.

Well, it’s especially helpful for women’s conditioning.

In his previous life, his pharmaceutical company also developed a "Yueanshu" women's health product, which used yew fruits as the main raw material.

Shen Qiansan didn't ask, but Zhao Hanyu couldn't help but ask.

"Dad, you are thinking about Uncle He again!"

Zhao Deming once told Zhao Hanyu a story about when he went to the countryside to become an educated youth. Zhao Hanyu knew that the man who died of poisoning from eating yew fruits was named He Zhongyuan, who was his father's friend when he was young.

Zhao Deming did not deny it, nodded and said: "Yes, if your Uncle He was still here, he would have a higher position than me now. At that time, he was the best among us educated youths."

Zhao Hanyu said: "You miss Uncle He, go and see him another day!"

As he said that, he secretly glanced at Shen Qiansan.

Zhao Deming was slightly surprised. He had talked about being an educated youth in Erdaogou many times before, and he had also talked about He Zhongyuan, but he had never heard his son take the initiative to let him go and see it.

Zhao Hanyu's reaction today was a bit strange.

She couldn't help but glance at him and asked, "Why did you suddenly ask me to go?"

Zhao Hanyu touched his nose and said with a smile: "I have never been to Erdaogou, which you have talked about so many times. I also want to visit the place where you went to the countryside."

Zhao Deming said "Oh" and seemed to suddenly understand something. He couldn't help but said angrily: "I won't take you with me even if I want to go!"

This bastard didn't want to go see Erdaogou with him. He only wanted to go because he heard that Shen Qiansan's hometown was near Erdaogou.

After his father saw through his thoughts, Zhao Hanyu smiled coquettishly and said to Shen Qiansan, "Third brother, when do you go back to your hometown, I will follow you!"

After being reborn, Shen Qiansan has not returned home.

At the beginning, it was to ease the relationship with Chen Shuting and her family, so I didn't bother to go home.

Later, the relationship eased, but the mother-in-law still had difficulty moving and lived in his home, so he couldn't just leave.

After all, in this era, unlike in later generations, every village has access to highways. In addition to driving for an hour and a half, it takes two hours of walking on mountain roads to get to his hometown. If he really goes home, he can't just leave as soon as he returns. At least he has to Stay one night.

He originally planned to take his wife and daughter home to visit his parents and sister after his mother-in-law could walk.

At this time, when I heard Zhao Hanyu ask, the longing in my heart was a bit uncontrollable for a moment, and he said: "I have plans to go back recently. If you want to go, I will call you to come with me."

It just so happened that Zhao Hanyu was engaged in engineering.

After he was reborn, he had to build the road to his hometown no matter what, so that it would be convenient for him to return home in the future.

In the last life, due to the death of Chen Shuting and the disappearance of his daughter, his father died early. His mother never forgave him and never left the mountains of her hometown again.

My sister also had a miserable life in her previous life.

Reborn in this life, the tragedy did not happen again, but he still had to make up for the regrets of the previous life, and let his parents and sister live a happy life in this life.

The greatest sense of honor for parents is the achievements of their children. To make parents feel this honor, they must return home in glory.

The best way is to build a road from his hometown to the outside world, so that people in his hometown know that this road was built with money from his Shen family.

Zhao Hanyu didn't know these thoughts of Shen Qiansan, but when he saw that Shen Qiansan agreed to let him go with him, he immediately became happy and said excitedly: "Third brother, it's agreed that you will call me when you go back to your hometown."

"No problem!" Shen Qiansan agreed with a smile.

While the two were talking, Zhao Deming had already flattened the sauerkraut, and while putting it on the plate, he murmured: "It's best to use lard when frying sauerkraut!"

Recalling those days, only when pigs were slaughtered during the Chinese New Year did I have the opportunity to add some lard to fry sauerkraut. Normally, I could only use rapeseed oil, and only a few drops at a time.

Don't dare to put too much. The monthly fuel coupons are limited. If you put too much when cooking, you will run out of oil, and you will have no more oil to eat in the following days.

However, sauerkraut is very oil-absorbent. If you add too little oil, it will be very dry when fried. Only when you add more oil and fry the sauerkraut will it be lubricated.

After hearing this, Shen Qiansan pointed to the oil tank next to him and said, "That's lard there!"

Zhao Deming dug out a large spoonful of milky white lard with a spatula, put it into the pot, and it immediately melted into clear oil. He put the sliced ​​dried chili into it, sniffed, and said: "Pig Sauerkraut stir-fried in oil is so fragrant!”

After hearing this, Shen Qiansan actually wanted to say that the mixed oil was the most fragrant.

When he fry sauerkraut, he likes to add rapeseed oil first, simmer the dried chili pepper segments with the rapeseed oil for a while, and then add lard. After the lard melts, the dried chili pepper segments become slightly burnt. At this time, add the flat sauerkraut and stir-fry. The taste is simply amazing.

However, this was Zhao Deming cooking, so he didn't say much.

It has to be said that Zhao Deming's cooking posture is still good. The sauerkraut is fried quickly while the spatula is flipping.

After taking the pot and putting it on the plate, he held the plate close and smelled it, seeming very satisfied.
