Chapter 252 Hand-rolled Braised Beef Noodles
After returning home, the few of them did not go to bed immediately. Instead, they packed up all the prizes from the lottery in the evening and sent them out together tomorrow. Of course, except for fruits and vegetables, meat needs to be packed when mailed tomorrow.
The reason why I packed the items in such a hurry was that I wanted to send them out as soon as possible so that the winners could receive them before August 15th.
It is also a great thing to be able to eat ingredients from Li Ji Manor during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
There is strength in numbers, and it didn’t take long for everything to be packed up.
Luo Xianglian was worried that Li Minghao and the others were young and had fast digestion, so she made some hand-rolled noodles, topped them with braised beef sauce made from beef brisket, and served them with a fried egg and some green vegetables. Not only did it look good, it also tasted amazing.
People like Guo'er and Zhou Ruolan, who were not hungry, couldn't help but eat a bowl each, not to mention the brothers Li Xuezhu and Li Minghao who were busy drinking that night.
"Grandma, you are really thoughtful. You drank a lot of wine in the evening but didn't eat much. Now I'm hungry!" Li Minghui took a small bowl of noodles with surprise and started to eat it with a slurp.
When you are hungry, eat a bowl of this hot and spicy beef noodles, it tastes so good!
"Grandma's hand-rolled noodles are as good as ever. Paired with the sauce, they are really delicious, leaving a lingering aftertaste!" Li Mingxiang praised as he slurped the noodles.
His favorite food since he was a child is the hand-rolled noodles made by his grandmother. The noodles are chewy and smooth, and he never gets tired of eating them.
"I finally got to eat the hand-rolled noodles made by my grandma. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I missed it so much. No one else can make it taste like this!" Li Minghao also sighed.
He and his brother often visited shops, and even visited one that made particularly good hand-rolled noodles, but none of them could compare to the ones made by his grandmother. He really missed the taste of it.
Although Li Mingfei didn't say anything, the way he ate without even raising his head said it all.
It is undoubtedly a happy thing to have the food you make recognized. Luo Xianglian is grinning from ear to ear:
"If you like it, eat more. There's still plenty in the pot! If it's not enough, I'll make more!"
It seems that the brothers really missed the hand-rolled noodles made by Luo Xianglian, and a big pot of noodles was completely eaten up.
Another person took a digestive pill before returning to his room to take a shower and sleep.
Fortunately, Li Gensheng went back to the room after helping to pack. If he knew that the brothers ate so much before going to bed and did not take care of their bodies, he would definitely nag them again!
"My daughter, after you finish seeing the patients today, go to the city to deliver the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to your uncles and godfather's families! I will deliver them to the families in the village!" Li Xuezhu assigned the work right after finishing breakfast.
"Okay!" Guoer responded readily.
Every year, she and Li Xuezhu are the ones who deliver the festival gifts and New Year gifts at home.
When she returned from the clinic, Luo Xianglian had already prepared all the holiday gifts.
Guoer looked at the holiday gifts prepared by her grandmother and found them really rich. Each family received two boxes of mooncakes made yesterday, two boxes of salted duck eggs, honey, homemade wine, nuts, fruits and vegetables, meat and a lot more.
Li Minghao and his brothers helped move all the things into the trunk. Whatever couldn't fit was placed on the front seat. The car was completely packed.
This time, the brothers are not planning to go back to the city with Guoer.
Mid-Autumn Festival is the day after tomorrow. I will visit some elders in the village and then go to inspect various places in Daqingshan.
After all, you have invested so much money, it would not be right if you just don't take a look.
Guoer first went to several uncles' homes to give holiday gifts, declined their invitation to stay for dinner, and finally went to Chen's house.
"Grandma, will my aunt and her family come back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Guo'er asked as she carried the gifts to Chen's house.
Zhao Bing was also moving things along. Upon hearing this, he said with a smile, "He called yesterday and said he would be back for the holidays, but he wouldn't be back until the Mid-Autumn Festival!"
Guo'er also raised her lips and said happily: "That's great! My aunt hasn't celebrated Mid-Autumn Festival at home for several years!"
"Yes! Your aunt Yingzi didn't marry in our city, so every Mid-Autumn Festival she has various reasons why she can't come back!"
Zhao Bing was in a low mood. Which parent doesn’t want to have a family reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Her daughter was also spoiled by her family since she was a child. Fortunately, the man she married really loved her and spoiled her, otherwise he would never let her marry to another city, even if it was the next city.
"Grandma, won't your aunt come back to celebrate the festival this year? You have to be happy! Be in a good mood to welcome their family of four!" Guo'er hurriedly comforted her, feeling a little regretful. Why did she ask about this and affect the old man's mood!
He waved the goose in his hand in front of Zhao Bing's eyes and said, "Doesn't Aunt love the roast goose you make the most? Look, I brought one this time. You can cook it for Aunt when the time comes!"
It seemed that Guo'er's persuasion worked, and when he thought of his daughter and her family of four who were coming back to celebrate the holidays, his depressed mood suddenly improved a lot.
"That's great. Your aunt likes this. When she was a child, she had a quarrel with her two brothers over a goose leg! She beat her brothers, who were several years older than her, until they cried!" Zhao Bing thought of the funny things that happened when her children were young and couldn't help laughing.
"Was my aunt so powerful when she was a child? Even her two uncles couldn't beat her? I really didn't realize it!" Guoer exclaimed.
Before Chen Hongying got married, Guoer liked to follow her every time she came to Chen's house, and they had a very good relationship.
I know her quite well. She has a cheerful and open-minded personality. I didn't expect that she was a little hot-tempered when she was young!
"It's not that I couldn't beat her, it's just that her two brothers let her go, so she became more and more unreasonable! Later, your uncle saw that she was becoming more and more unreasonable, so he got hardened and beat her up, and then she changed." Zhao Bing opened up and talked about Chen Hongying's embarrassing stories with a smile.
"Aunt, you were so naughty when you were a child. It's just like her personality!" Guo'er said with a smile.
If my aunt knew that my grandmother told her all my embarrassing stories, she would probably go crazy! Hahahaha.
"Now that you've grown up, you've become mature. You're no longer the asshole you were when you were little!" Zhao Bing also complained about her daughter mercilessly, not at all like she was just now unhappy about not being able to come back to celebrate the holidays.
The two of them moved the holiday gifts that Guo'er brought into the house, chatted for a while, and had lunch at Chen's house before returning.
But Lijia Village is quite lively now. It is not long before the National Day and the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the holiday is ten days long. All the villagers who work outside the village have come back to celebrate the festival.
These people went out after the Chinese New Year and hadn't been home for more than half a year. When they returned to the village this time, they almost thought they had come to the wrong place. The changes were so great.
Often, they would call home and tell them that the village had changed a lot and they could make money at home, and persuade them to come back to develop, but they were not willing to do so.
