The years when I opened a farmhouse in my hometown

There are some meat dishes around the hot pot, and vegetarian dishes around the outer circle.

It is also a home-cooked dish that is often eaten. There are homemade fish balls, fried pork with mushrooms, alfalfa pork, dry-stir-fried tofu, cold bamboo shoots, fried lotus root clips, osmanthus lotus root, yam tofu soup, steamed egg dumplings, and sliced ​​meat. Stir-fried fungus, chicken fir mushroom in a dry pot, cauliflower and green vegetables in this season are mixed with bean curd and fried together.

The rest are some small dishes, which are used for hot pot, there are lotus root balls, fish balls, and after freezing, thin slices of rolled lamb, pork, and beef.

Some chicken offal, pig large intestine, pig brain, pig blood, frozen tofu, bean fruit, fried dough sticks, bean skin, yuba, yam slices, vermicelli, lettuce and so on.

The round table for eating is only that big in total. The dishes for this table took nearly two days to prepare for the Shen family. I can't wait to serve them all on the table, it really can't fit, the dishes like hot pot are scattered and stacked, which greatly frees up a lot of space.

After the Shen family set down their tables, the most respected elder in the family, Mr. Tai Gao, raised the shallow black ceramic bowl and the rice wine in full bloom, stood up first, and said in a loud voice: "New Year, this year has been a prosperous one. year."

The Shen family also stood up, holding old-fashioned shallow bowls, and saying blessings to each other.

Grandpa Tai Gao narrowed his eyes with a smile, took a small sip, and continued: "Everyone, don't be restrained, start to eat, start to eat, it's all from my family, just like usual..."

The old man was very happy. After moving the chopsticks first, the rest of the Shen family also began to drink happily.This can be regarded as a custom. Generally speaking, at important banquets, meals, etc., the old man starts, and other people start to drop their chopsticks.

Young and old in order.

After Shen Xiaoyun ate a piece of tender tofu in the hot pot, she took a sip of the hot soup in her mouth, took out her mobile phone, and took a picture of the New Year's Eve dinner on her table.

The Shen family members were all used to Shen Xiaoyun's operation, so they subconsciously raised their chopsticks and asked Shen Xiaoyun to finish shooting first.

Shen Xiaoyun quickly took a few pictures, told her family that the pictures were ready, and then posted the table for the New Year's Eve dinner on her Weibo.

The villagers here in Yunshui Village, even if the economic conditions have improved now and the villagers have opened their own shops, most of the villagers still do farm work. Physical work consumes a lot of energy and their appetites increase. Eat three bowls of rice.

This year's meal is prepared a lot, and each dish is very generous. The Shen family's food is also delicious and enjoyable. They are all from their own family. They all eat food and chat from time to time. This New Year's meal has eaten nearly two Hour.

At the end of the New Year's meal, Shen's mother brought some rice, everyone scooped some, took a few mouthfuls, and was about to spray out the greasy feeling in their throats.

After a short rest, you can drink a small bowl of rice soup.

The last work of cleaning up the tableware and chopsticks was done by the women of the Shen family, and the men of the Shen family started to clean up the tables, chairs, and the floor...

There is also a custom in Yunshui Village to light firecrackers. Some garbage at home, firecracker scraps and so on, cannot be swept out during the three days of the Chinese New Year, saying that it has lost wealth.

After Shen Xiaoyun was full, she rested at home for a while, and ate New Year's dinner with her family. Her belly was so full that she ate too much, and she drank a lot of rice wine. After a while, she would go to the bathroom and it wouldn't be so high up.

Li You'an had never eaten such a New Year's meal, and everything was extremely novel to him.

There is no need for any etiquette for eating. The whole family gathers around a table, discussing the most interesting things of the year, and talking happily.

Even the eldest brother Shen Yunhai gave him a good look. During the period, he was toasted, said nice things, and brought him some food, etc., which really flattered Li Youan.

I always suspect that my elder brother has a new move waiting for me...

"Is it too late to go to the farmhouse in the afternoon?" Shen Xiaoyun murmured to Li You'an when they went up the mountain to worship their ancestors. night.

As the owner of the farmhouse, the purpose of coming here here is to entertain the tourists who have a more traditional farmhouse flavor. This is his duty as a boss.

In the past year, Yunshui Village has gained a strong sense of existence, attracting batch after batch of foreign tourists to come and play, and some of them stayed for a while.

But in the end, it is because of the lack of background and the temperament of Internet celebrities. Even though it was popular for a while at the beginning, it has not been as popular as it was when it was the most popular.

Especially during the Chinese New Year period, tourists are one-fifth less than in the past.

Many surrounding tourists who drink holy water and inhale spiritual energy will go to celebrate the New Year. Those who live in farmhouses and B&Bs for short-term rentals are still full of customers.

In order to provide tourists with a strong understanding of the taste of the New Year, Shen Xiaoyun also does a lot of homework here, holding meetings from time to time, asking the farmhouse and the villagers to decorate their homes more festively, and some food is also richer.

Shen Xiaoyun ran to the farmhouse if she had nothing to do, to check the sanitation, decoration, and small New Year gifts distributed to the tourists in the farmhouse.

Going to the Nongjiale for the New Year was actually planned by Shen Xiaoyun in advance. This year, everyone's conditions are good, and it's easy to eat something.

Tourists come here sometimes just to experience the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

"No, I informed the cafeteria in advance that the ingredients are ready."

And on the side of the farmhouse, even if there is a shortage of manpower, other people in the village can take over. Farmers, whether male or female, can all get off the kitchen.

The dishes for this New Year's Eve dinner are washed and cut in advance, various side dishes are also prepared, some seasonings are also arranged, plates, chopsticks, etc. are also washed, and put in the disinfection cabinet for ready use.

When her stomach was not so full, Shen Xiaoyun went to the canteen of the Nongjiale to check. For the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, the canteen prepared a lot of dishes, because there were too many, some of them were placed on the tables in the canteen.

When Shen Xiaoyun came, the uncles and aunts in the cafeteria had almost finished their work.

"Xiaoxiao, come and take a look. If there is anything else you need, if you have any shortcomings, just tell uncle, and I will prepare everything." The uncles and aunts who cook in the cafeteria actually quite like Shen Xiaoyun's frequent visits.

Said it was to enjoy the festive atmosphere with the tourists.

Then call on the tourists to work together, each to use their talents, to display their talents, such as those who can cook to cook, those who can't cook, start to wipe the table, clean up, organize tourists to drop off the table, and have a meeting Cut the fruit plate to start cutting the fruit plate and so on.

In short, these tasks that they were supposed to do were contracted out to these tourists.

They can also relax for a while without having to cook as many large meals.

Even sanitation, dishes and chopsticks do not need them to wash.

It’s Chinese New Year again today, and the people who work in the farmhouse are all the villagers of Yunshui Village. Some staff, such as tour guides, logistics, and purchasing department, many regular employees go home for the New Year, and some things are replaced by villagers.

Although the salary is several times higher than usual, everyone still wants to reunite with their families and have a good year for the whole family.

Shen Xiaoyun checked in the kitchen, and asked the villagers about some of the dishes they needed for the New Year's meal. After asking, and after making sure there were no loopholes, the villagers were asked to go home for the New Year.

Before leaving, Shen Xiaoyun distributed red envelopes to these employees who had been busy for a year, and there were only a few hundred dollars in it, just to make everyone happy.

The uncles and aunts in the village all returned to their homes with red envelopes and bright smiles.

Here, Shen Xiaoyun posted a message in the tourist group, informing the tourists who are still in Yunshui Village that they are willing to come for the New Year's Eve dinner, and those who are celebrating the New Year's Eve will come to the farmhouse cafeteria, and hope that everyone will organize the New Year's Eve dinner together.

Although Shen Xiaoyun has been salty for a while, but for fans who are all foodies, this appeal is quite strong.

There is no heating in Yunshui Village. In this winter, many tourists will come out except for eating time. The rest of the time is spent in bed, watching TV or playing with mobile phones.

When the tourists under the covers saw the overwhelming group news, they immediately jumped out of the covers.

I rub!

Such a good thing, how can they be missing?

This is absolutely not to be missed.

Quickly put on clothes, wrap themselves tightly, and when they came to the cafeteria, they found that these people were all in a hurry, and they all arrived at the speed of a rocket.

Then one by one, as if they were confiscated by the country, they were asked who has good knife skills, what kind of special dishes they know, it’s time to show their real skills, etc...

The rectangular dining table in the cafeteria was moved away, and in the huge cafeteria, it was placed into a big Chinese character.

In this way, it is convenient to place the New Year's meal, and everyone can eat different dishes in a buffet style.

The tourists just came to play, this kind of lively and festive atmosphere was exactly what they wanted, no one refused, no need to say hello, each rolled up his sleeves, some cleaned the tables and chairs, and some started After tidying up the tableware, some of them started to unleash their firepower to show off their cooking skills, and some started to play with the fruit plate, and cut up some melons and fruits, oranges and apples that Shen Xiaoyun had prepared in advance, and put toothpicks on them.

Some common snacks, melon seeds, peanuts, nuts, sesame candies, hemp sticks, wax gourd candies, sesame cakes, and mung bean cakes are also prepared in advance on small plates.

Of course, these are not staple foods, but for tourists to satisfy their hunger. Sometimes the mouth is itchy, and if you want to eat, you just twist a few pieces to eat, knock the melon seeds, and chat, and the atmosphere comes.

As for Shen Xiaoyun and Li You'an, they selected a few faces from among the tourists who often dangled in front of him on weekdays, brought them to the Nongjiale's office, and began to make red envelopes.

These red envelopes are all for the New Year's dinner, a small surprise for everyone's vigil red envelopes.
