    What Chen Yao likes most is when the family prepares mid-year food together.  In the days before Chinese New Year, they are always very busy, stewing meat, making mahua, making iron lion head, as well as 饹馇, fried fish, meat eggplant box, these are all for the preparation of the Chinese New Year.

    Like every year, this year's twist noodles are still made by Yang Yi. There is skill in making noodles. If the dough is not good, then nothing can be done well.  Peanut oil and brown sugar should be put in the twisted noodles, and the noodles should be hardened so that they can be chewy.  The noodles for making oil cakes are thin, so yeast powder and eggs are added, and the degree of dilution is the key. If it is too thin, the cake will not rise when it is put into the oil pan, and even oil spots will splash.  The perfect presentation at the final dinner table is due to Yang Yi's decades of experience and skills. Of course, in order for the children to master these survival skills, Yang Yi will always let them watch by her side every time she does these skills.  Then tell them all the main points, and gradually find opportunities for them to try it themselves.  After all, only by doing it yourself can you truly transform theoretical knowledge into productivity. This is the experience she has learned and summed up over the years.  She hoped that her children would master survival skills, so that no matter what the future looks like, their handicrafts would at least allow them to have food, which was her original idea.  However, this small move has brought another benefit to Yang Yi and his wife invisibly, that is, the children can always prepare meals for the two of them when they are busy.

    "Look carefully, the ratio of noodles and oil should be in proportion. Generally, two spoonfuls of peanut oil and two spoonfuls of brown sugar should be put in three scoops of noodles. The water must be warm water, so that these can be mixed together better." Yang Yi said.  Doing this proficiently, while telling the children the main points.  There is a very important process in making fresh noodles into noodles, which is the process that Yang Yi values ??most.  After the noodles are done, put another basin on top of the washbasin, then cover it with a cotton coat, and put it in a place with a suitable temperature near the kang head, so that their insides can fuse naturally, but the temperature of the kang head should not be too high, otherwise  It will make the pasta to be overcooked.  This is a unique way of waking up in the countryside.  In the process of waking up, the other side can live fried pancakes. Time is especially precious to them at this stage. They must learn to allow two things to go on at the same time.

    When the twist noodles wake up, they will be served on the panel. They divide the work skillfully. Yang Yi is in charge of cutting the noodles, and then the children are in charge of twisting the twist.  The small rectangular strips of dough are rolled into long round strips on the panel, and then one end is held on the left and right, and the right hand is rubbing circles and circles in one direction until the noodles are picked up automatically.  Twist together by force in opposite directions.  Then repeat the same action for the two twisted together, and twist again, usually about two twists, you can stick the top to one end with force, and a beautiful little twist is ready.

    As the children grow up, Yang Yi has gradually let the children get in touch with these jobs that only she can do. Firstly, it is to teach them skills. She can't cook for them for a lifetime.  Secondly, it can also lighten her burden a little. With years of physical labor, her body is not as good as when she was young.  Li Changqing seldom participates in cooking. The only thing he knows how to cook is cooking noodles, and the only thing he can help with is lighting a fire.  When the fire in the pot transfers the heat to the oil, in the hot peanut oil, these delicious foods are born.  According to the different ingredients, the temperature they need is also different: the eggplant box needs to be fried slowly on a low heat, and the twisted twist also needs a low heat, but the oil cake needs a high fire, so that the oil cake can expand when it is put in the pot, and it can be turned over.  Can cook.  Under Yang Yi's various demands, Li Changqing had to carefully adjust the heat, because Yang Yi's temper that had gradually deteriorated over the years began to erupt due to a slight carelessness in controlling the heat.

    After years of hard work, Li Changqing finally paid off the debts that weighed him down like a mountain.  Of course, this also made them empty out their own wealth.  If according to the traditional living method of rural people, let a few children go to work to earn money after finishing elementary school or junior high school, and then marry and have children, Li Changqing will not have to work too hard.  But according to Yang Yi's thinking, she must send her four children to college.  The cost of university is not a small sum. Li Changqing heard that the cost of optics is tens of thousands per year, and it will last for several years, plus living expenses, it is not a small sum.  Besides, he has four kids to study.  He didn't study much when he went to school, and he didn't realize the meaning of going to college, but Yang Yi often nagged in his ears that only going to school can let the children get rid of the tiredness of facing the loess and the back of the sky, and get rid of the women's "pot".  "Turn" fate, go to the outside world to see.  When thinking of these, Li Changqing's nerves tensed up again, and he didn't dare to relax.  Yang Yi is still working hard to save more money for the children, but even so, during the Chinese New Year, ??Still generous in preparing dishes as rich as possible.  Everyone in the family has worked hard for a year, and a bright future requires hard work now, but occasionally, just occasionally, they should also have a good life in front of them.

    Chinese New Year is a particular thing, from the small year on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Eve, the first day of the new year, Po Wu on the fifth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month, the filling festival on the 25th day of the first month, to the second day of February  When the dragon raised his head, the New Year was officially over.  Yang Yi will prepare a table of sixteen dishes on every big day like this.  Two plates of fatty meat, one plate of braised fish, one plate of chicken, one plate of lean meat, one plate of fried chrome slag, one plate of sauerkraut vermicelli, and one plate of canned peaches. These eight dishes are almost standard for every festival.  The remaining eight dishes will be prepared according to the situation of the year and according to the "order" of the children and Li Changqing.  For example, fried fungus with meat, mushrooms with meat, yuba with meat, cucumber in cold salad, etc., as long as it is something that can be bought in the market, Yang Yi will generously prepare it.  And throughout the entire first month, the food is basically not bad, at least there is meat in every meal.  They work hard to live, and occasionally enjoy life.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
