With a Door In Mind
Chapter 119: , New Year's Eve
Overnight.
Today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, which is the new year.
Every household must clean the environment, clean all kinds of utensils, remove and wash bedding, and sweep the yard.
I also had to sweep all the spider webs in the corners.
The locals call this period "Spring Day", also known as "Dust Sweeping Day".
However, in some places, the new year is different, some are twenty-four, and some are twenty-five.
Jiang Xiaochuan looked at the busy girls and daughters-in-law in the village. The brushes are being washed.
He thought to estimate that in a few years, in 1966, these traditional festivals would not dare to be celebrated.
At that time, whoever dares to come out to sweep the dust, that is feudal superstition.
In the village, Xiaonian usually gets some delicious food.
In previous years, the flour that is usually saved will be used to make pumpkin cakes, red jujube steamed buns, etc. to worship the kitchen god.
If the conditions are better, get some dumplings with a little bit of meat.
However, looking at this year's harvest, it is estimated that the flour will have to be saved for the New Year before eating.
As for the candied melons that could only be eaten by landlords in the past, we can only think about it.
But early in the morning, I heard people in the village say that they are eating dumplings at noon today.
I heard there is also tofu.
When Jiang Xiaochuan heard the words, it was estimated that Jiang Dingzhong was grinding tofu when he was away.
Soon it was time for lunch.
The crowd crowded to the large dining hall in the village.
Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at it.
There is only one dish in the cauldron,
Pig blood, pig water, tofu and Chinese cabbage are stewed in one pot.
And there are a lot of dumplings piled next to them, and the dumplings are gray-yellow.
It definitely doesn't look good, but I don't know how it tastes.
Soon Jiang Xiaochuan brought his younger brother to his meal.
Half a bowl of thick corn and sweet potato porridge with half a spoonful of stew on top.
It looks pretty good, pig blood tofu and the like, each has one or two fast. Most of the rest is cabbage.
And he got 3 dumplings.
He glanced at it. There were 5 adults, 4 women, and 3 children and the elderly.
But it seems that everyone does not have much opinion on this distribution.
He frowned. He subconsciously sniffed his bowl.
There is a sour taste.
He looked at the vegetables in the bowl, pig blood and the like were killed yesterday, and the cabbage and the like were even less likely to have a sour taste.
Then there is only tofu.
Although it is colder now, but do not eat the tofu after it is made, it will eventually become sour after a long time.
Looking at the beaming people next to them, they were all happy to eat, even Jiang Xiaohe was eating.
He saw that Jiang Xiaohe quickly finished eating, and he gave the dish to Jiang Xiaohe.
I saw the strange look in the eyes of the people next to me.
He smiled and explained. "I don't like tofu."
Jiang Xiaohe rolled his eyes when he heard his brother's words.
The last time he brought back tofu, it was no less than what he ate.
But he didn't speak, took his brother's tofu, and started to eat.
The person next to him glanced enviously, then looked at his family, thinking to himself, why is there no one in my family who doesn't like tofu.
It would be nice if you could eat it yourself.
Then Jiang Xiaochuan picked up the dumpling and put it in his mouth.
After chewing, he stopped. Bara quickly took two mouthfuls of porridge.
The flour for this dumpling is a bit rough and it feels a little sandy. It should have been ground with a stone mill in the village, instead of going to the commune to use a machine to grind flour. So it's not completely sifted.
The stuffing is Chinese cabbage. It felt a little meaty, but I didn't feel it. I guess there was too little meat.
After eating the porridge and eating the dumplings, I looked at the crowd.
At this time, everyone was beaming with joy. I haven't had dumplings in a long time.
Since some time ago, the village bought a batch of sweet potatoes, at least people don't have to live, and they will be soft when they work hard.
It's definitely not enough to eat, but it won't make the eyes faint from hunger.
Everyone was chatting lively, saying that they would go hunting in the mountains in two days. Hope to get some more meat out.
How could this village near the mountains not hunt.
In the past, people would occasionally go into the mountains to get something to fill their homes and improve their meals. Then, after the new year, near the end of the year, the nearby villages will make an appointment to go for a walk in the mountains together.
Now it is not allowed to go hunting without permission in the mountains. We can only wait for the collective action of the village.
However, there are usually some people who sneak into the mountains to get some dry goods and game.
It's just that these are things that everyone tacitly understands. Otherwise, where does something come to cook secretly at night.
But game is rarely available, usually some mushrooms and the like. This year is too dry, and there are very few mushrooms.
People hope to get the big guy, so that life in the village will be easier.
Thinking that he was going to go to the provincial capital tomorrow, he found Jiang Dingzhong.
Jiang Dingzhong watched Jiang Xiaochuan come over, and asked angrily, "Are you going out with a certificate, or is there something else out there?"
Jiang Xiaochuan was embarrassed when he heard the words, and said with a smile, "Uncle Jiang, wasn't my father's leader here yesterday? Let me go to the city."
Hearing his words, Jiang Dingzhong entered the house and gave him a certificate. handed it to him.
He thanked him and left.
Back home and told Jiang Xiaohe that he was going to the provincial capital.
The other party just snorted. I didn't care.
This made him inexplicable. Did he go there many times? Already used to it?
How could he know that Jiang Xiaohe was really used to it. Seeing that my brother didn't mention taking me there. He didn't bother to ask any more. It's useless anyway.
The next morning, early in the morning, he set off.
The New Year is coming soon, and he is ready to go and return quickly. Not ready to waste time in the provincial capital. Come back and have a peaceful New Year's Eve.
When he came to the commune, he remembered that when the farming was busy before, he never went to Dr. Tian's house again, and he never said hello.
After thinking about it for a while, he turned to Dr. Tian's house.
Came to the front of the courtyard of Dr. Tian's house. There was no one in the yard at this time.
But the Tian family had already woken up. is in the hall.
Take out 2 rabbits from the space, and then knock on the courtyard door.
"Bang bang bang..."
Not long after, the courtyard door was opened. The door was opened by Tian Hongjun, the son of Doctor Tian.
"Xiao Chuan, why are you here?"
Then, seeing the bag in Jiang Xiaochuan's hand, he asked, "Xiaochuan, did you bring me anything delicious?"
Hearing his words, Jiang Xiaochuan handed him the bag in his hand. "Yes, hurry up and take it in, it will be bad if people see it."
Tian Hongjun didn't know what it was, but he still took it. Then the two came to the main room.
Doctor Tian was surprised when he saw Jiang Xiaochuan coming over.
Li Mingyue asked from the side. "Xiao Chuan, you haven't been here for two or three months, haven't you? Why are you here today?"
Then he saw the bag in Tian Hongjun's hand and asked strangely, "Hongjun, what are you holding in your hand?"
When Tian Hongjun heard his mother's words, he said, "Mother, this is what Xiaochuan gave us."
Then he opened the bag and saw what was inside.
Surprised, he said, "Yeah, it's a rabbit."
Then he glanced at his mother.
Li Mingyue was surprised when she saw that there were two rabbits.
"Bring back this thing, Xiaochuan, I can't have it. The honey before is already very precious."
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaochuan said, "Auntie, it's not like you don't know that there are mountains in my place, and I caught them myself."
Li Mingyue was polite and accepted.
After all, I am a doctor. I see a doctor all the year round, and there will always be someone to give me something to thank.
Jiang Xiaochuan looked at Li Mingyue and said embarrassedly, "Aunt Mingyue, you also know that I was busy with farming and didn't have time to come here. Later, there were some things at home, so I forgot."
Li Mingyue smiled and said indifferently, "It's nothing, so are you here today to continue studying?"
Hearing her words, Jiang Xiaochuan said apologetically, "Auntie, I came here this time, which means I won't come again in the future."
Then he turned to Doctor Tian again and said, "Doctor Tian, I'm sorry, I said I was picking herbs for you before. I forgot about this busy farming~www.wuxiaspot.com~."
Doctor Tian didn't care when he heard what he said.
He also knew that the situation was special before. After all, at that time, the commune was very busy with iron things.
But when he heard that he would not come in the future, he hesitated and asked.
"Xiao Chuan, are you interested in studying medicine?"
Jiang Xiaochuan was stunned when he heard his words.
Then he shook his head and said, "Doctor Tian, I learned to identify herbal medicines for the village. Forget about studying medicine."
Hearing Jiang Xiaochuan's words, Doctor Tian felt a little pity in his heart.
After all, he had previously felt that Jiang Xiaochuan had a great talent for identifying herbal medicines.
But since the other party doesn't want to, that's fine.
After a few polite words, he rode away.
