After looking through the menu for a long time, Xu Manman felt that she should order some foreign food, so she ordered delicacies from the more prosperous areas, including fried tempura vegetable platter, fried pork cutlet, fried chicken nuggets, curry udon, custard egg, and miso soup.
It's a pity there are no shrimps, the tempura fried shrimps are the best.
She finished dinner with a slight regret. Although she didn't feel very good about her life, the food didn't offend her.
It's not easy to filter out these delicious dishes from their limited menu.
After dinner, Xu Manman took out a watermelon in revenge and ate it with a spoon. Thinking about the watermelons and cantaloupes that were sold at sky-high prices when she traveled there, she suddenly felt that the watermelon in her hand was really sweet and delicious.
Finally, Xu Manman successfully ate too much and collapsed on the sofa, not daring to move. She felt that if she moved at all, she would vomit.

The next day, Xu Manman went to the village to exchange for tofu.
She could exchange soybeans or money for tofu, but she chose money. Compared with the original and pollution-free soybeans, money was just a number to her.
Tofu can also be made in the space, so Xu Manman didn’t change it too much.
After exchanging the tofu, Xu Manman began to prepare the grass carp she bought yesterday.
It was frozen hard. She looked at the fish that could be used as a weapon and felt a little helpless. With her strength, she couldn't cut it apart in this state.
I soaked the fish in a basin of hot water, and after it thawed, I scraped off the scales and gills. I had no experience at first, and it took me a lot of effort to process the fish.
The fish head was chopped off and set aside. As for the remaining part, Xu Manman removed the fish bones and scraped off the fish meat with a spoon, leaving only a fish skeleton.
Add the fish head and bones to tofu to make soup, add a little chopped pork fat, egg white, onion and ginger water, salt and corn starch to the fish meat, and stir until it becomes thick.
Brush oil in a square lunch box, pour the mixed fish paste into it, steam it for half an hour, remove the lid and pour the egg yolk on top, spread it evenly with a spoon, cover it with the lid and simmer for 3 minutes before serving.
Xu Manman cut a small piece and put the rest into storage. The main reason was that she didn't have any fish here, and it was rare to come across one, so she had to cherish it.
The fish was not small. Although the meat was removed, the soup made from the remaining fish bones and head was also a big pot.
After the soup was ready, she only drank one bowl that day and put the rest in storage.
The milky white fish soup was exceptionally delicious. Xu Manman placed a bowl of rice in it. It turned out that rice soaked in fish soup was the truest way to go.
The side dish is a small dish of soybean sauce.
The fish cake was made very successfully. Although it was my first time making it, it really tasted like what I had when I was a child. It is sold in modern markets, but Xu Manman still thinks it tasted best when she ate it at a big banquet in the countryside when she was a child.

During this period, except for Zhou Ming, Xu Meili and Lin Zuxin, all the other old educated youth took leave and went home one after another. The new educated youth did not have leave, and the remaining people were just enough to form three classes.
The literacy classes will stop after the Little New Year and resume after the Lantern Festival, and will continue until the ground warms.
However, the old educated youth almost all returned home after the Lantern Festival, and their vacation seemed to be no more than 40 days.
Despite Xu Manman's repeated persuasion, her cousin still did not go home and insisted on staying here with her.
He had even discussed with Li Mao before he left that he would borrow his bed after Li Mao left.
Li Mao readily agreed, "Xu Zhiqing has taken good care of us, so you can stay here."
Another roommate who stayed behind, Lin Zuxin, also expressed his happiness at having someone to accompany him, so without Xu Manman's knowledge, Chen Ming had arranged his accommodation for the New Year holiday.
It was Laba Festival today, which is a festival in itself. The check-in amount today was a generous 50 tickets of the Great Unity, but there were no extra supplies. It might be because she was already full of things.
The literacy class was on holiday, and the next door village had the same arrangement, so my cousin came here directly with his luggage after class yesterday afternoon.
Under the organization of several community leaders, the people who stayed behind in the educated youth site decided to have a meal together, and they brought their own dry food.
The dining area is in the big kitchen, which is larger.
The dinner was at noon, so Xu Manman cooked a pot of millet porridge in the morning and steamed a few buns on it for a simple meal.
I have to say that my cousin was well prepared. Yesterday he not only brought luggage but also dry food and a bundle of firewood.
