Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

afternoon.

Since he called team leader Deng Yunjun over for dinner when he bought a bicycle, Deng Shirong carefully prepared a table of snacks, including fried bee pupae, fried peanuts, braised pork, spicy snails, dry-pot frogs, vegetarian fried beans, and cold salad. Cucumber, water spinach salad and a crucian carp soup.

Deng Yunjun came over and saw such a large table of delicious and delicious food. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and said: "Uncle Jiu, just make two dishes and have two drinks with you. How come you have prepared so many dishes? They are all comparable to Drinks are served!”

Deng Shirong smiled and said: "It's rare to ask you to come over for a meal, so naturally I have to make it decent. Besides, except for the vegetables grown at home, most of the others are food that no one in the village eats. As long as you don't dislike it, that's fine."

Deng Yunjun took a closer look and found that Uncle Jiu was right. Among those meat dishes, bee pupae, snails, and frogs were all ubiquitous. Not many people in the village ate these things, and they didn't know what Uncle Jiu was. How is it made? It looks very appetizing.

"Uncle Jiu, I brought you some sandworms. You can keep them to make soup." After coming back to his senses, Deng Yunjun handed over the pack of sandworms he was holding and said.

Deng Shirong quickly declined and said: "Captain, you are too polite. Just come here to eat. Why did you bring such valuable things over? I can't accept this. You can take it back with you when you go back later."

Deng Yunjun laughed and said: "Uncle Jiu, are you kidding me? Why is this valuable? In the past few years, not many people were willing to exchange it for sweet potatoes!"

Deng Shirong has also experienced it, so he naturally knows that what Deng Yunjun said is true. In the past few years, there were people from the seaside carrying sandworms and other seafood to their village to exchange for sweet potatoes, but not many people in this village were willing to exchange!

After all, I didn’t live by the sea, and no one in the village knew what sandworms tasted like. In addition, everyone was having a hard time at that time, so naturally they were not willing to exchange dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes for those three to five kilograms of sandworms. I felt that doing so What a shame.

But Deng Shirong, who lived in later generations, naturally knows that good sandworms can sell for thousands of yuan per pound, making them high-end seafood that many families are reluctant to eat.

However, sandworms are indeed not expensive now. After declining for a while, Deng Shirong took the sandworm and said: "Okay, then I will accept it. Azhen, you take it and put it away. Yuntai, pour the wine for the captain." superior."

After giving instructions, Deng Shirong invited Deng Yunjun to sit down.

Deng Yunjun looked at the bowl of bee pupae that had been fried to a golden color in front of him and said with emotion: "Uncle Jiu, you still use the fried bee pupae to eat. You are really not afraid of wasting oil!"

Deng Shirong said with a smile: "This thing is great for frying and drinking. Once you try it, you will know how worthwhile it is to waste some oil!"

Deng Yunjun picked up the chopsticks and said: "Don't tell me, I have eaten a lot of bee pupae, but I have never eaten fried bee pupae like this. I want to try the fried bee pupae that Uncle Jiu praised so much. How delicious it is.”

While speaking, Deng Yunjun picked up two fried bee pupae. As soon as he finished speaking, he stuffed them into his mouth and started chewing them.

Needless to say, few people in later generations can resist the taste of fried bee pupae, let alone in this age where meat is unknown, Deng Yunjun couldn't stop eating it!

And this table is full of snacks, not only the fried bee pupa is delicious, but also the braised pork, spicy field snails, and dry-pot frog all have their own flavors.

After Deng Yunjun tasted these dishes one by one, he stopped his chopsticks, picked up the wine and said, "Uncle Jiu, from today on, if you mention the word "eat", I will obey you in our village."

Deng Shirong touched the wine with him and said with a smile: "At our age, eating is the most important thing. Let me tell you, while your teeth are still able to bite, eat when you need to. Don't be reluctant to wait until your teeth It’s all gone, no matter how much delicacies there are, I can’t eat them anymore!”

Deng Yunjun took a sip of wine and nodded: "It makes sense. Uncle Jiu has a high level of thought and sees things thoroughly."

Deng Shirong laughed and said: "I just have a good meal. How can I have any ideological realm? You think highly of me!"

The two chatted while drinking, and Deng Yuntai would answer a few words from time to time. The other young people couldn't answer the conversation, so they simply immersed themselves in their food.

This meal of drinking started around 5:30 in the afternoon, continued until dark when the kerosene lamp was turned on, and ended at almost 8 o'clock in the evening.

Then, both Deng Shirong and his son, as well as Deng Yunjun, were already 70 to 80% drunk.

Deng Yunjun stood up, swaying slightly, and said, "Uncle Jiu, I'll go back first and drink with you another day."

Deng Shirong hummed, and then ordered: "Yunheng, take the lamp and send the captain back."

Deng Yunjun waved his hand and said: "No need to send him off, it's just this little way, I can just walk back by myself!"

Although Deng Shirong was 70 to 80% drunk, his mind was still clear and he said: "There may not be moonlight now, so let Yunheng take you back with a lamp!"

Deng Yunheng picked up one of the kerosene lamps and said, "Brother Jun, why are you being polite to me?"

Deng Yunjun saw this and no longer refused. He said hello one last time and went home with the help of Deng Yunheng.

After Deng Yunjun left, Deng Yunzhen ordered: "Azhu, please clean up the dishes, and I will get dad hot water to take a bath."

Deng Yunzhu responded: "I know!"

So, the two sisters got busy themselves, one cleaned the dishes, and the other went to the kitchen to get hot water for Deng Shirong to take a bath.

Deng Shirong was holding a hookah while smoking while watching them work. In his previous life, his two daughters did not marry well. Not only was his son-in-law unable to support him, but none of his grandchildren were promising. .

One month before he was reborn, he met his two daughters. The eldest daughter was as old as an old woman in her seventies or eighties, and the younger daughter was not much better. The wrinkles on her face were so deep that they could kill a fly.

His two daughters have really worked hard all their lives. They had endless work to do every day when they were at their parents' house, and they had endless work to do when they went to their husband's house. They had not really had any leisure time in decades. As a father, he It hurts to see it.

Of course, there are more regrets.

After all, the marriage of these two daughters in the previous life was decided by him, a father who believed in the words of a matchmaker.

In this life, he must keep his eyes open and must find a satisfactory partner for his two daughters so that they can live a happy life that is completely different from their previous life.

While Deng Shirong was recalling the past life, his eldest daughter Deng Yunzhen shouted: "Dad, I have prepared the hot water for you, I have put the towels in the bucket, and I have put your clothes on the stool next to you. Are you drinking today?" I drank a lot, come here and take a hot bath and go back to bed!"

"Yeah, I got it!" Deng Shirong responded and put the chimney away.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to all of you!
