Xiao Ran looked at the time and it was twelve o'clock noon. He used to eat lunch at noon.
But it is not the same time in rural areas. Lunch is usually around two o'clock, after all, people eat late in the morning.
I have to get up early to prepare pig food first, and cow food as well. Generally, I feed the pigs and cows first, and then prepare food for people, so it will naturally be a little later.
The livestock must be fed first in the evening, and meals must be eaten after 8 o'clock.
The two little princesses had eaten once before and were not hungry, but Princess Gaoyang, Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang were indeed hungry, but they were too embarrassed to say it.
"I'll cook later." Xiao Ran said.
"I'm hungry!" Grandma also heard it.
"Hmm!" Princess Gaoyang felt a little embarrassed.
"I eat early in the morning and am used to eating at noon." Xiao Ran explained.
"Then let's eat quickly and have some biscuits first." Grandpa also said.
Without a refrigerator, cakes and other things will not last for a few days, but cookies can be kept for a few more days.
Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang were competing to cook. When they saw a piece of black bacon that was even a little moldy, they didn't know how to start.
"What is this?" Princess Yuzhang pointed.
"This is bacon!" Xiao Ran said.
"Ah? Can this be eaten? Isn't it spoiled?" Li Lizhi was also surprised.
"Yes~" The little princess holding the biscuit also came over to take a look.
"It's edible. This one's only been around for two and a half years. I had bacon that was four years old before. It was cured with lots of salt and smoked, and hung in a relatively dry place, so it won't go bad."
"Aside from being a little salty, it's actually pretty good." Xiao Ran picked it up. "We need to roast it first. There's still hair on the skin that needs to be cleaned."
Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang didn't know what to do and could only watch Xiao Ran come.
There are basically no separate kitchens in rural areas, so people just cook on the stove in the living room. That's basically the case.
The stove is mainly used for heating in winter and for cooking at other times.
But my grandparents think that since there is no need for heating in the hot summer, there is no need to burn coal. Firewood can be used and it can be extinguished when cooking is not needed.
Make a fire to cook the meat first, and then boil water.
The room was full of smoke, and all the princesses ran away at once.
Xiao Ran was also so irritated that he burst into tears.
It takes two days to get used to it, but it’s really hard to bear at the beginning.
"Xiaoran, let me do it!" Grandma couldn't bear to see Xiaoran.
"Grandma, it's okay, you'll get used to it. I haven't been smoked for a long time, so I'm a little uncomfortable..." Xiao Ran wiped his tears with his arm.
My grandparents have bad teeth, so their skin has to be cut off.
After burning, the skin turns into an attractive golden color.
Xiao Ran tore off a piece and fed it to the little princess.
"This is good~"
Chewy and tastes good.
Princess Gaoyang and the two little maids ate with gusto.
The little princess took out most of her snacks and gave them to her grandparents.
The little princess felt that since her grandparents gave her cookies, she should also give some as a token of reciprocity.
The two little girls sat on the doorstep eating pig skin and integrated into the atmosphere very quickly.
There was a mark on the little princess's knee, which was left when she was kneeling on the ground while digging potatoes.
It has never been changed.
Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang were also busy helping with washing vegetables.
Grandma looked at Xiao Ran, Li Lizhi and the other two and smiled happily.
She's so pretty, has a good personality, and is hardworking, it's hard not to like her!
Grandpa went out for a while and came back with a big rooster. "They are hungry, so we can only wait until night for the rooster."
"Grandpa, there's no need to do that." Xiao Ran had mixed feelings. His grandparents hadn't been back for a long time and didn't raise chickens. These must have been bought from the neighbors.
Chickens are killed to entertain important guests.
"I've bought them all. Let little Mingda have a try." Grandpa looked at the little princess lovingly.
This innocent and lovely little girl is very likable.
"This is a local chicken. It tastes better than those in the city. It's too late now. Let's eat it in the evening!" Grandma also said.
The more the old man acted like this, the more guilty he felt.
I feel very complicated.
In order to escape from some things and some people, Xiao Ran hasn't come back to visit for a long time.
If Xiao Ran hadn't known that his grandparents were returning to the village, he wouldn't have acted so suddenly.
He only calls once in a while, and basically won't contact me unless there's something important.
Everyone said that this was emotional indifference, and Xiao Ran himself didn't know why it became like this.
The reason I didn't contact him before was that my life was a mess and I had accomplished nothing. When the old man talked about things like starting a family and building a career, I was speechless.
I don’t know how to face it, and I’m even afraid that others will talk about these problems.
Just choose to escape.
Soon, several dishes were placed on the crooked small round table.
It is more lively when there are more people.
The bacon that was black before now looks very appetizing, and it is very fragrant with some dried chili peppers and garlic sprouts added.
The little princess couldn't wait any longer.
Grandpa took out half a bottle of white wine and asked, "Xiaoran, do you want to drink some?"
Xiao Ran shook his head, "Grandpa, I don't want to drink anymore."
"There's beer. I bought it a long time ago and I don't know if it's gone bad... Oh, there's also milk." Grandpa took out some milk.
"This is a bit old, maybe it's expired." Grandma also said.
Xiao Ran picked it up and took a look, "Not yet!"
The little princess likes these things more.
"It's time to eat." Xiao Ran shouted.
The little princess picked up the highest wooden stool and sat next to her grandmother.
The wooden stools in the house are of different sizes and shapes, tall, short, fat and thin.
