Chapter 167 Chicken beads, instant noodles, table

The beauty of cow eggs is loved by both adults and children.

However, Xiaofang didn't eat it herself, so she happily returned home with about ten cow eggs given by Liu Qingshan.

"Grandma, look, what is this?" She grabbed two golden cow eggs from the snakeskin bag, looked at grandma with excitement and said, "Cow eggs, cow eggs."

"Ah, cow eggs!" Grandma took the cow eggs from her granddaughter's hand with her eyes glowing, and said in surprise, "I don't know if I haven't eaten this thing for many years."

"Haha, grandma, I have several more in my bag, so you can eat enough."

"Xiaofang, what did you look for?"

"No, it was when I came back from the mountain and met Liu Qingshan, which was given by Liu Qingshan."

"Oh." Grandma said meaningfully and said with a smile, "Xiaofang, you should eat it, grandma doesn't like it."

"Grandma, stop lying. Last year, Grandpa Tan went to the mountains to chop wood and brought back a cow egg. When you watched him eat, his saliva was almost flowing out." Xiaofang picked out all the cow eggs in the snakeskin bag, and then picked up two of them casually, "I'll give two to Grandpa Tan."

"No, why are you giving it to him?" Grandma looked stern and was a little angry. "Last year he found a cow egg bun and came back. I asked him to give it to me half of it, so don't give it to him either."

Seeing that grandma was still angry about the incident of the ox egg tuo last year, Xiaofang felt it was funny and smiled and said, "Grandma, why are you like a child? That's all last year's business, and you still hold grudges. Be good, Grandpa Tan has taken care of our family a lot before. Although he didn't give you food to the ox egg tuo, I have eaten the chicken legs and duck legs he gave me since I was a child."

Old Man Tan is an old hunter in the village. Although his old age is quite miserable, when he was young, he lived a very comfortable life with his good hunting skills.

Xiaofang's parents died young, and her grandmother raised her with great difficulty. Old Man Tan saw it and felt that Xiaofang was cute. So whenever she slaughtered chickens and ducks at home, she would always send Xiaofang two chicken legs or duck legs.

Although Xiaofang is not a child from a scholarly family and has never read too many books, the word "gratitude" is as simple as eating.

Now that Old Man Tan is old, she stops hunting, and she relies on government relief to live. Therefore, whenever there is something good at home, it is her turn to give back to Old Man Tan.

During the holidays, chicken beans and duck beads and duck beads will be delivered to Old Man Tan’s house.

Chicken beads and duck beads are in local dialects, and chicken beads refer to the meat from the chicken legs to the back of the chicken butt. The same is true for duck beads.

This part of the meat has no bones. In this area, from ancient times to the present, it has been popular to give chicken beads and duck beads to the elderly. Perhaps some people think that giving chicken butts and duck ass to the elderly is unfilial.

However, we should know that in the past, or even now, when the economic conditions of a few mountain people were still very backward and poor, they could divide a lot of meat, and their significance and value were higher than that of chicken beads and duck beads.

Although cow egg lumps are not meat or expensive things, they are the beauty in most people's memory.

Although grandma said she was unhappy to give it to Old Man Tan, she still felt relieved because of her granddaughter's sensibility.

Xiaofang brought two cow egg tumblers to Old Man Tan’s house.

Recently, in order to dig yam, she hasn't come to Old Man Tan's house for a long time.

Seeing Xiaofang coming in the hazy night, Old Man Tan was overjoyed and hurriedly took out a box of instant noodles from the kitchen a few days ago: "Xiaofang, look, the government sent me a bucket of peanut oil and a box of instant noodles two days ago. I can't get used to this noodles, so you can take it home to eat it."

Xiaofang didn't take the instant noodles, but put the two old men Setan in the arms of the two cow eggs and said angrily: "Why can't you get used to it? Grandpa Tan, you are just pretentious. If someone else gives you it, you should keep it for yourself and eat it. Don't always think about giving it to others. If you really can't cook noodles, I'll let my grandma come over to teach you tomorrow."

"No, no, no." When the old woman was coming, Old Man Tan quickly refused, "Who said I can't cook it, I can cook it, I just can't get used to it."

"Why can't I get used to it?" Xiaofang turned around and walked into Old Man Tan's kitchen, lifted up the lid of the rice jar in the corner, and looked in, "Look at you, there are only a few kilograms of rice left, and they are picky. What's wrong with this noodles? What's wrong with eating it? Let me tell you, Grandpa Tan, when I was in junior high school, my biggest dream was to eat instant noodles every day. Now that I have to eat it for you, don't choose it."

"Oh, haven't I told you? You can't eat so much oil at once, so you can just put it in a smaller bottle. You can't put a large bottle on the edge of the stove. When the temperature is high, the oil will easily deteriorate." Seeing that Old Man Tan placed a large bucket of oil directly on the stove, Xiaofang couldn't help but scold him.

"There is also this salt jar, and there is no lid. If you put it on the stove like this, if you accidentally wet it while serving water, the salt will be useless." Xiaofang nagged, picking up the oil and salt from the stove and placing it on the wooden table next to the stove.

The wooden table is very ugly, it is really made of pieces of wood and iron nails.

With four legs, two horizontal wood, and a few woods that are made into the tabletop, everything is fixed with iron nails, and it becomes the crappy and ugly wooden table in front of you.

Although it looks ugly, you can at least place things on the table instead of throwing them directly on the ground.

The creator of this wooden table is Xiaofang.

Although Xiaofang has a lot of things to do, the carpentry aspect is still a bit disappointing.

After she put the things on, she picked up the broom and cleaned the floor in the dim light and picked up the things, saying, "Grandpa Tan, look at you, now the government sends you money every month and also gives you rice and oil. Your basic life has been guaranteed, but you can't relax because of this. You should clean the land every day, but you still have to clean it every day, do you know?"

"If the floor is cleaned and the environment is good, people can live in comfort and their health can be better. Moreover, sweeping the floor is also an exercise. Not only will the floor be cleaned, but the body will also be exercised. How great is it. Remember to sweep the floor frequently in the future, do you know if you do?"

Old Man Tan stood at the door with a smile, looking at Xiaofang who was chattering, and couldn't help but say happily: "Xiaofang, look at how old you are. You are just nagging like this. If you get married in the future, your man will not be nagged by you."

Xiaofang straightened her waist and stared at Old Man Tan in anger: "Grandpa Tan, I'm telling you seriously."

"Okay, okay, I listen to Xiaofang. From now on, I will definitely clean the house every day."

Xiaofang smiled: "This is almost the same."

"Oh, by the way, Grandpa Tan, do you like to eat salty rice dumplings or sweet rice dumplings with white sugar?" Xiaofang asked suddenly.

Old Man Tan was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Actually, I like to eat meaty ones."

"Ah? This is a troublesome." Xiaofang frowned. "Pork this year is too expensive, so during the winter solstice, I don't plan to make glutinous rice cakes with pork stuffing. I just plan to make some peanut and chestnut salty rice dumplings, or make some tea seed ash water dumplings."

When Old Man Tan heard this, he hurriedly laughed and said, "Haha, Xiaofang, I'm joking with you. Actually, I prefer to eat sweet food. This year, it's a good way to make grey water dumplings. It's delicious when you dip in white sugar."

"Really?" Xiaofang smiled, "Then Grandpa Tan, will I not make big belly cakes this year?"

"It's okay, I like to eat some vegetarian food if there is anything delicious to pork. Moreover, I can't eat much by myself. Then you can just give me two rice dumplings."

"How can I do it? I must make the rice dumplings better than meat."

......

"This taste is really not bad at all." Liu Yuanhe said with a look of sweet cow eggs, "I haven't encountered cow eggs for many years, and I haven't encountered cow eggs in the mountains for many years. I didn't expect you to be so lucky, and you met so many at once."
