Rebirth of an old friend into a dream

Yue Xiangyi's subdued cries and words of complaints full of grievances and self-blame made his son Shi Yinian's nose sore when he heard it across the door, and his heart felt as if densely packed holes had been poked out by steel nails, causing severe pain.

Shi Yinian understands that her mother is a strong and unyielding, hot-tempered activist, but she is strong on the outside and hard on the inside, and she will never show her vulnerable side in front of her son.Even if she is wronged, wronged, or looked down upon, she will still pretend to be strong, and even ask her son to have tears and gold under his knees, so that he will not easily bend his back in front of the world and win mercy.

He silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, walked into his room with heavy steps with his head lowered, and closed the door behind him with a creak.

That night, he lay on the single bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.Since his youth in his last life, he has always had a series of negative personality factors such as indecision, passive handling of things, and pessimism, until he was suddenly stimulated by the hysterical Yue Xiangyi during college, and raised a sharp knife on the inside of his wrist , made a sharp stroke.

Fortunately, after contacting the society, after constant setbacks and going through thousands of sails, he became more frustrated and braver, and his heart became more and more tenacious.

When he remembered the scene of Qin Xuan floating upright in the swimming pool in his dream, he suddenly realized that the twists and turns of fate and obstacles in life in front of him were nothing.What is greater than life and death?

Some young people are easily encouraged to participate in mass //mass//suicide// suicide, and Shi Yi Nian thinks he understands their state of mind very well.After all, he was also the one who accidentally took this wrong step.Because even if you are innocent and you have good intentions, God did not arrange for you a good birth, a happy family, rich food, gorgeous clothes, fashionable toys, and considerate care. Maybe you were born in a slum at the beginning, grew up In the swamp, no one helps you, sympathizes with you, loves you, even hits you, despises you, and hurts you.

The so-called world is not benevolent and treats all things as dogs, no matter what happens to all things, it is the behavior of all things themselves.So someone will stand up and shout, my life is up to me!Do not bow to fate, resist fate, the initiative of life is in your own hands.

Thinking of this, his eyebrows gradually relaxed, and the wooden bed under him seemed to have turned into a floating cloud.The corners of the mouth were slightly upturned, and he fell into a sweet dream.

This weekend, Shi Yinian accepted Qin Xuan's invitation, specially brought Yue Xiangyi together, closed the shutter door early, closed the shop, and took the Qin family's private car to go to the Qin family's old house to eat hot pot.

Arriving at Jianmen Mountain and circling the mountain road all the way up, the old house is still in front of the winter with clear water and green bamboo, and the scenery is beautiful.There are two bright yellow bamboo lanterns hanging high above the gate, which are antique and make Yue Xiangyi dumbfounded.

Qin Xuan stood in the night wearing a black long windbreaker, with green bamboos swaying by the bleak north wind behind him, as if transformed into a knight-errant in an ancient costume movie, suave and elegant.Shi Yinian was stunned, his ears felt hot, and soon he found that the old mother's saliva was about to flow three thousand feet.He rested his forehead and sighed, and pushed the swaggering Qin Xuan into the door.

Yue Xiangyi marveled at the Qin family's old house, touched the corridor pillars, and stopped in front of the ancient paintings.It was the smell of food from the dining room that seduced her deeply, so she moved towards the dining room.

On the big round table is a large-sized mandarin duck pot, half spicy and half clear soup, bubbling and bubbling.All kinds of cut and washed vegetables, meat, seafood and meatballs are displayed around the mandarin duck pot, as well as a small dish of seasoning, which is rich in variety and dazzling.

Qin Xuan asked Yue Xiangyi to sit in the seat of the elders, and introduced to her the method of making the bottom of the pot: "Auntie, you see, this white soup is pork bone soup and fish head soup that has been boiled for a long time, with scallions and ginger slices. , pickled ginger, garlic, star anise, cinnamon, licorice, cloves, and red dates, add refined salt, cooking wine, pepper, and rice wine juice, and boil the soup until it becomes milky white and has a strong fresh fragrance."

Seeing him standing aside and talking, Shi Yinian also leaned up and stared at the bottom of the pot, and it was really delicious.

With a smile in his eyes, Qin Xuan continued: "The other half is the bottom of the authentic Sichuan spicy clear oil hot pot. The dried chili is processed into glutinous rice cake chili, and the dried prickly ash is roasted on low heat until it is crispy. Then add scallions, ginger slices, garlic granules, Stir-fry watercress, glutinous rice cake chili, and peppercorns with butter until the aroma is overflowing. When the water is dry, add white cardamom, grass fruit, star anise, cinnamon, cumin and other spices. After cooling, cover for ten hours and filter out the residue. It’s hot pot oil.”

Shi Yinian only felt that the gluttons in his stomach had been hooked out, and he looked at Qin Xuan eagerly, waiting for him to sit down and announce that dinner was served.

As soon as Qin Xuan saw his well-behaved appearance, his heart surged. He couldn't help but walked over and touched his head, and said softly: "Little greedy cat, sit down and eat, why are you being so polite to me?" Yi Nian's mother took a hot towel and said, "Auntie, wipe your hands and eat, you are welcome at my house."

Yue Xiangyi replied: "Hey! Hey!" Holding the chopsticks in his hand, his eyes scanned the plates of sliced ​​meat and mushrooms like radar, and he didn't know where to start.

After Qin Xuan took off his coat, he rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, and used long chopsticks and long spoons to put meat, meatballs, fish fillets, shrimp, etc. into the bottom of the two pots. Put Yue Xiangyi's leaf-shaped dish in a small dish.

Shi Yinian dipped in the seafood sauce, put a mouthful// into his mouth, his delicate willow-leaf eyebrows raised, his eyes lit up, and he nodded again and again to show that it was delicious.The same was true for Yue Xiangyi who was sitting on the side. After taking a sip, she couldn't stop using her chopsticks. She couldn't help but try the spicy hot pot bottom that she usually didn't dare to eat. Had a big glass.
