Chapter 150 Huang Ling's New Year's Eve
Lunar New Year's eve.
Not long after breakfast, my uncle started frying meatballs. He didn't ask anyone for help and methodically mixed the meat filling, rolled the meatballs, and fried them by himself.
Zhou Huailan and Xiaoting were waiting in front of the pot to eat the crispiest and hottest ones.
"Let's get in, let's get in!" Zhou Huailan rushed out of the kitchen with a hot meatball in each hand, stuffing one into her aunt's mouth and the other into Huang's mother's hand.
"Hot, hot, hot!"
"My son, why don't you take the chopsticks or use the bowl?" Mother Huang touched Huailan's hand while chewing the hot meatballs.
Zhou Huailan turned around and saw Xiaoting holding the bowl and laughing.
"Oh, yeah! Xiaoting is really smart!"
"Grandpa!"
"Mother!"
Xiaoting fed one to Huang's father and one to Huang Ling.
"The way you guys eat it, your uncle's food has been fried in vain." Huang Ling saw Xiaoting eating happily with the bowl in her hands.
"No, my uncle fried a lot. He said we should put the leftovers in the refrigerator and take them out when we want to eat them. I love meatballs the most!" Xiaoting couldn't stop eating.
"That's right, let the children eat it, and then we will fry it again." My aunt looked doting.
Her only son is in the army in the north, and her daughter-in-law has also gone with the army. She can only see her grandchildren once every few years, so she loves Xiaoting especially much.
At this time, Zhou Huaiyi, who had gone out, came back.
Huang's mother stood up and said, "Huai Yi is back. It's my turn to make fried fish."
Zhou Huaiyi went to a fish farmer's house to buy fresh fish. Everyone said that they would not go out today after buying it yesterday, but he said that if he went again today, the fish would be fresher.
Before entering the door, Zhou Huaiyi shouted in the yard: "Xiaoting, Huailan, come quickly."
"What interesting things did you buy?" Huang Ling also went out to see.
On Zhou Huaiyi's bicycle handlebars, there were three fresh fish hanging on one side and a cage with a little rabbit in it on the other side.
Most of the little rabbit's body is white, but the tips of its ears and four feet are black, which is very cute.
Huang's mother took the fish, Huailan took the cage, and took Xiaoting to play at the door of the living room.
"There's more!" Zhou Huaiyi pointed to the back seat of the bicycle.
Zhou Huailan walked over and saw that it was fireworks, so she asked, "I couldn't buy them a few days ago!"
"Well, the supply and marketing cooperative has it again today. I guess they originally kept it for themselves, but they didn't expect to sell meat this year. Everyone spent their money on meat and had no money left for fireworks."
"That's great, our Xiaoting has fireworks to play with." Zhou Huailan was very happy.
"Aunt, I don't dare." Xiaoting shook her head like a rattle.
"Don't worry! I dare to do it! I'll do it, and Xiaoting will watch from the side."
"Give it up! Don't throw away the fire and hold the cannon in your hand. I will set it off for you to see." Zhou Huaiyi was not at all reassured.
Zhou Huailan rolled her eyes at her brother and took Xiaoting to find some cabbage leaves to feed the rabbits.
"Xiaoling, here." Zhou Huaiyi washed his hands first, then took out a paper bag from his cotton coat and handed it to Huang Ling.
Huang Ling took a look and found that it was sugar-roasted chestnuts, which were still warm when she took them in her hands.
I'm afraid he put it in his arms when it was too hot.
“The supply and marketing cooperative still sells this!”
"No, the alley next to the supply and marketing cooperative is almost like a street. They sell roasted sweet potatoes, sugar-roasted chestnuts, plum cakes... everything. Everyone is thinking that the joint defense team won't come to check today!"
"Oh, so that's how it is. It seems what they said is true. They are becoming more and more relaxed. They said that many old shops will reopen, such as Huang Tianyuan, Sheng Chunyang..." Huang Ling peeled a chestnut and stuffed it into Zhou Huaiyi's mouth while telling him.
Zhou Huaiyi raised his eyebrows: "It's quite sweet, maybe it's made with saccharin. When these shops reopen, we'll go eat at each one."
Huang Ling's eyes lit up and she nodded with a smile.
Father Huang helped Mother Huang clean the fresh fish by the pond in the yard. Watching his daughter and son-in-law interacting, he sighed softly. Then he looked at Mother Huang beside him, and her eyes were wet.
"This time, I finally got what I wanted and felt relieved." Father Huang said softly.
Huang's mother wiped her face with her sleeve and said, "We've learned a lesson this time. We should visit them more often in the future and not wait until they've been wronged before we realize it."
"My daughter is different now. I don't think she can stand being wronged."
Zhou Huaiyi ran to the pool to help.
"Dad, Mom, I'll do it."
"No need, you go and have a rest for a while, I'll cook the fish. Aling loves the fried fish I make the most." Huang's mother stretched out her hand to stop her.
"Yes, you should go and have a rest. You've been running all morning." Huang's father also said.
Zhou Huaiyi just stood aside and watched while chatting with Huang's father and mother.
"Dad, Mom, if you have time and you're used to living here, please come and stay more often. Xiaoling said she missed home a little, and her eyes got wet the other day. But it's not realistic for her to stay at home for too long. We still have to go to work. I think she would feel much better if you could stay longer."
Father Huang looked past Zhou Huaiyi at Huang Ling who was also teasing the rabbit.
"Okay, your mother and I don't have anything to do. When we come to send Xiaoting off, we'll stay for a while. I guess! A Ling has changed her environment and her mood has changed a bit, but with your company, I believe she will adapt quickly."
"Okay, I'll pay attention to her mood. Mom, teach me a few more Changzhou dishes. I'll cook them for her often to ease her homesickness."
Zhou Huaiyi took the prepared fish and continued, "Let's start with this Changzhou fried fish. I really don't know how to make this dish. I need to learn from my mom."
Huang's mother smiled and said, "I think it's similar to the ones in Suzhou, but the ones in Suzhou are sweeter, while ours in Changzhou are more salty and fragrant."
“That’s because the sauce is different.”
Huang Ling leaned against the kitchen door and ate an orange while watching her mother-in-law teach her son-in-law how to cook.
Zhou Huailan walked over and put her head on her shoulder. Without looking back, she accurately stuffed a slice of orange into Zhou Huailan's mouth.
"Huailan, do you think we should go and help?" Huang Ling asked.
"Just watch!" Zhou Huailan said and walked towards the kitchen.
Just after taking two steps inside, Zhou Huaiyi and his uncle said at the same time: "We don't need you, go away!"
Zhou Huailan turned around gracefully and smiled at Huang Ling with raised eyebrows.
"Hahahahahaha, you're simply a monster, smashing bowls and spoons a lot! Oh my god!"
Huang Ling handed the remaining oranges to Zhou Huailan and walked in.
Zhou Huaiyi and his uncle also said: "Xiaoling is going to warm herself by the fire, we don't need you."
Zhou Huailan smiled and said, "You too."
"No, no, no, we are different. They dislike you and feel sorry for me."
"Okay..."
Despite what they said, Huang Ling still went to help.
I heard Zhou Huaiyi praising her to his uncle: "The vegetable rice cooked by Xiaoling is the best I have ever tasted. I ate it at her house and wanted to make it myself, but I used the same ingredients but couldn't get the same taste."
Laughter and joy filled the room.
It was not until this moment that Huang Ling realized that she had traveled through time and space, and her mission at the banker had come to an end.
Next, it was her happy life.
Everyone in this room tries their best to make her happy, and she also tries her best to make everyone in this room happy.
