Back To Masalalu

" Fried pork fat is so good!"

jiangzhou said, and pointed to the nylon bag that was bulging on the ground.

Chloe and Zoe blinked curiously.

The next moment, Zoe suddenly turned around and ran towards the back with her short legs.

Then she shouted, "Mother Mother! Comeing! I bought something delicious! "

Jiang Zhou was a little surprised, then he smiled and rubbed Chloe's head.

Then ask gently, “Where is Mom?”

He only remembered when he entered, he had only seen his two children, but had not seen Liu Mengli.

"Mother, work~"

Jiangzhou stood up after hearing that, then walked quickly towards the courtyard and brought me a nylon bag and basket.

work?

What the hell is he doing?

What Jiangzhou did not expect was that when he entered, Liu Mengli was dragged out by Zoe, and the two collided head-on

"What are you doing..."

"You bought something..."

The two spoke almost simultaneously.

Before he could finish speaking, he froze again.

Jiang Zhou pursed his lips and smiled, “You talk first.”

Liu Mengli bit his lips, and glanced at the sweaty Jiang Zhou, and then looked towards the large nylon bag he was carrying.

His heart felt like it was touched by something.

“Do you buy something?”

“Ya.”

“Where did you get the money?”

Liu Mengli frowned and looked at him.

to be honest.

When Zoe told him that Jiang Zhou was back from shopping, his first reaction was, where did Jiang Zhou get the money?

steal?

robbing?

Or deceiving?

What upset Liu Mengli even more was that the first thought that came to his mind was how to apologize to others later!

apologize to Jiangzhou!

Jiang Zhou seemed to have read his thoughts.

He bent down, opened the nylon bag, and took out its contents one by one.

"I don't steal or rob. I bought this with the money I earned.."

Jiang Zhou took out a lot of stuff.

There are meat, kerosene, light bulbs, oil, salt, and others.

All are urgent needs at home.

Liu Mengli's eyes widened.

He opened his mouth, and it took him a while to hear his own voice: "Get the money? Where did you get the money? "

Did you steal someone else's stuff and sell it? !

suddenly sweat appeared on Liu Mengli's palm in an instant.

Jiangzhou had never done this before.

Jiangzhou has an older brother.

His name is Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming and Jiang Zhou used to live together, but after marriage, his brother chose to live in the next village.

There were two houses in this courtyard, built by Jiangzhou's father, and each of them had one house.

Jiang Ming was different from Jiang Zhou.

Jiangzhou has been lazy since childhood, that's what makes it wrong way to adulthood.

His older brother, Jiang Ming was more diligent and meticulous, he believed that hard work would pay off and become rich.

Breeding cows, raising chickens, ducks, and geese.

He even went up the mountain to open an empty plot of land, and planted all the crops that could be planted.

But two years ago, Jiangzhou stole the cattle Jiang Ming used to plow his fields and sell them to buy a pair of leather shoes.

It was the only animal they had!

When it was discovered Jiang Zhou's father had fainted from anger.

Outraged, Jiang Ming broke off relations with his younger brother, bringing his wife and both parents, to the edge of the village.

After spending money, he built a house from his own land.

Since then, he had cut ties with Jiang Zhou.

Liu Mengli's palms were sweating.

His mind was full of what to do next.

However, Jiangzhou had already brought everything out neatly.

one by one wrapped in oil paper.

The bottom oil paper wraps three pancakes.

Grated and greasy horseradish filling, each cost Rp.200

Jiang Zhou picked it up and said: "I woke up early in the morning to pick up a bag of nylon mugwort leaves and some wild vegetables, and sell them in Qing'an County."

"Besoka is Qingming Festival, mugwort leaves are very easy to sell, I sell them Rp.1,200 per cent of kilos, and other wild vegetables, and get Rp. 46,000."

"I bought these items, including pork, for a total of Rp. 25,000, and I still have a little money left ."

Jiang Zhou said: "Everything is here."

He said, and took out a small handkerchief.

Inside was the piled cash.

Liu Mengli was stunned.

He knew that Jiang Zhou came out early in the morning.

However, he thought he was going to play around.

It never occurred to him that Jiangzhpu was out to make money?

Liu Mengli's heart was very complicated.

But subconsciously he couldn't believe it.

someone who has been a son of a bitch for 20 years, Jiangzhou may suddenly turn into a different person overnight.

Jiang Zhou pursed his lips, looked at him, and showed his smile.

“You eat pancakes first to prop up your stomach, I'll cook."

jiang Zhou said, and handed the two pancakes with grated radishes to Chloe and Zoe who looked at him excitedly.

The two kids were very happy.

And acting adorable, they happily picked it up, and spoke in her cute voice.

"Thank you, Daddy~"

"Zoe, love to eat pancake~"

Jiang Zhou lovingly rubbed the heads of the two little ones.

Then, he stretched out his hand, took out the last pancake and handed it to Liu Mengli.

Li Mengli Yang was still a little dazed.

Jiang Zhou picked up the lean and fatty meat that was pierced with hemp rope and walked towards the kitchen.

...

……………………

Usually, each family basically only eats twice a day.

after returning from farming in the morning, they will eat at 9 or 10 a.m.

Then eat again at three or four in the afternoon.

That way they can save on food and save on costs.

However, after being reborn, Jiangzhou decided to turn it into a three-times-a-day meal like his previous life.

Not that it's a good habit.

Instead, Jiangzhou simply wanted to add nutrition to his wife and daughter, and restore their health after years of suffering.

Both are soft, like a touge.

By the age of three, he should have been plump and fat.

But when she hugged her son's body, she only had a little bit of flesh, and her face was very thin.

Both eyes seemed to be on the withered yellow grass.

The more Jiang Zhou saw him, the more he felt that he was an irresponsible human being.

Eat three times a day.

It's something that can't be bargained for anymore.

After some time, when the income is increased, it would be better if you eat four times a day, Ideally is to eat with more frequency with fewer portions.

Jiang Zhou was thinking about it, while both of his hands were still working.

He heated the pot, boiled a pot of water, and began to water the fatty meat.

Cut the washed fatty meat into pieces and immediately put it in cold water.

After the water boiled, he threw out the bushes, and took out his pig meat, washed it clean, and began to boil the pig fat.

In this age, lard is very rare.

the stomach sounds too.

Smelling the smell of meat oil, the two young children who were eating pancakes, walking on their short legs, standing beside the stove, watched with curiosity.

Chloe bit the pancake, then clucked and pointed to the meat oil that was in the pan, and said in her cute voice, "Dad, what is this? It smells so good~" Zoe swallowed her saliva

.

swallow her with difficulty.

She was very greedy, she reached out her hand and grabbed onto Jiang Zhou clothes, her voice was soft and cute: "Zoe, wants to eat, Zoe wants to eat~"

Jiang Zhou chuckled at hearing that.

"It's hot, Chloe and Zoe, you wait a minute, I'll get it for you!"

The two children were very hungry, but when they heard Jiang Zhou say this, they squatted down on the side obediently, and bit the pancakes in their hands while staring at the sticky pot.

Their attitude is adorable.

Lard is almost cooked.

The sound of the pig's mother is heard.

Jiang Zhou found a cracked clay jar and cleaned it, wiping it with a rag until it was clean.

If you put a handful of soybeans that have been roasted in this bowl, of course, it will be better.

But....

His family is very poor now.

Let alone soy.

Not even sweet potatoes they have.

Jiang Zhou took the lard, and stuffed the remaining lard into the enamel jar he had just bought.

“This is the name of fried pork fat, if sprinkled with white sugar granules on it, will taste very good,”

Jiang Zhou wiped off the sweat on his forehead, he said with a smile.

He bought half a kilo of sugar.

In this age.

White sugar is a luxurious meal for every family.

Her two children, Chloe and Zoe, have never tasted sugar since they were born, let alone white sugar.

Right now, when he saw Jiang Zhou take out a spoonful of snow-white sugar from a plastic bag, and sprinkle it on the remaining lard, his two children were already drooling!

"I want to eat it! Chloe wants to eat it! It looks so good!"

"Zoe, sweet likes sweet~"

The two boys were impatient.

Now that he finished eating the pancakes, they also wanted to eat the others.

Jiang Zhou immediately used his thumb and forefinger to clamp two pieces of sticky lard with sugar, put them near his mouth, let them cool, and put them into Chloe and Zoe's mouth.

"Geeh!"

"Enak once~"

Both chewed and ate the mother of a pig sprinkled with white sugar.

In an instant, a savory aroma spread along with the sweetness, spreading throughout his mouth.

The two reluctantly swallowed the lard in their mouths, even licking the remaining oil stuck to their lips.

"Daddy, it's delicious, it tastes sweet too! Chloe likes it! "

"Ahhhh! Uhhh! "

Zoe stretched out her hand, pointed to her small open mouth, and pulled Jiang Zhou's clothes gently and adorable.

"Zoe wants to eat it again~"

Oil and sugar, both of these ingredients are known to be health killers in later generations, but in this poor 1980s, both were the most mouth-watering delicacies.

Jiang Zhou felt depressed as well as relieved.

He hurriedly dragged the two sisters into the courtyard, holding an enamel bowl filled with the remaining lard in his other hand.

Jiang Zhou placed the enamel bowl on a small stool, and said, "Chloe and Zoe ate the remaining lard here, but should not eat too much. We should have lunch later, you understand?"

Actually, the two children were very hungry.

But they immediately agreed.

Jiangzhou got up and went to cook another dish.

There are two firewood pots in the house.

In this village, each household raised several livestock.

If conditions are a little better, a piglet will be caught at the beginning of the year.

It will be sold at the end of the year.

The source of this pig's income is the annual income of the entire rural family.

For the cost of children attending school, buying daily necessities, seeing a doctor and so forth.

it all depends on the pig.

Therefore, there is basically an additional stove at home that is specifically used to cook pork.

Jiang Zhou also had two stoves in his house.

But all of that was in the wake when her brother and parents were still with her.

The family also raised pigs.

Pigs eat better than humans all year round.

And ever since they parted, Jiang Zhou couldn't even get the money to catch a piglet, let alone raise a pig.

So the pot was cleaned and used to boil water.
