Rebirth: Bringing Space to a Well-off Society

It is a custom in Q City to eat glutinous rice balls in the morning on the first day of the new year, wishing that the new year will be complete and smooth.

The glutinous rice flour and stuffing for making glutinous rice balls are all bought in a grain processing workshop in the town. That processing workshop has been in operation for more than ten years, and the craftsmanship has been passed down from ancestors. People who eat stuffing can line up in long queues, and even many people from the city will come to the town to buy it.

What Lin Yuan bought back was black sesame stuffing and peanut stuffing. After eating these two flavors for 30 years in the past and present, it is inevitable that they will be a bit boring, so he specially made a jujube stuffing with jujubes from the valley. Yes, because the jujubes grown in the valley are already sweet enough, so he didn't add sugar when making the stuffing. After the stuffing was prepared, the taste was unexpectedly good.

The technical content of making glutinous rice balls is lower than that of making dumplings. Lin Yuan quickly made a hundred or so dozens of glutinous rice balls, and left some to cook and eat this morning. He packed the rest and put them in the valley. Here, plan to take it out and eat it when you want to eat it.

Before the glutinous rice balls were put into the pot, Lin Yuan called Wang Tao up, and when Wang Tao cleaned himself up, the hot glutinous rice balls were brought to the table.

"Well, I think the jujube-flavored one is the best." Wang Tao commented after eating the last glutinous rice dumpling, "It is sweet and delicate, full of jujube flavor, much better than the peanut and black sesame ones. "

"I made the jujube stuffing myself. I left some in the kitchen. You can take it home later so that your godfathers can try it too."

"Little Tangyuan, you are really capable!" Wang Tao rolled his eyes, looked at the scene of Tangyuan eating Tangyuan in front of him, and laughed very unkindly.

"why are you laughing?"

"It's born from the same root, so why bother with each other?" Wang Tao squeezed out Cao Zhi's verse from between his teeth, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his teeth.

Lin Yuan's little face turned black with a swipe. This dead child is too hateful. It's okay to give himself an ugly nickname and spread it widely. .

"I originally planned to stew the fruit chicken..." Lin Yuan stirred the glutinous rice balls in the bowl with a spoon.

Wang Tao waited for a long time and didn't hear the following, so he took over the conversation: "Then I really have a good meal today." In the soup, two ingredients that are far from each other are combined to produce an incomparable delicacy. Wang Tao almost swallowed his mouth watering thinking about the chicken soup he drank last time.

"But I suddenly don't want to do it anymore, so I decided to chop the chicken and cook it for Fat Duner to eat." Lin Yuan took a bite of the glutinous rice balls, and the white and tender skin broke open, and the black sesame stuffing flowed out .

Fat Duner heard Lin Yuan say his name, it ran in from the outside, and wagged its tail at Lin Yuan obsequiously.

"Little Tangyuan, you can't do this..." Wang Tao wailed with his handsome face. Lin Yuan ignored him at all. After eating the glutinous rice balls, what should he do? Poor Wang Tao didn't get to eat the fruit chicken, he saw Don't mention the resentment in Xiang Pun'er's eyes.

In the afternoon, after Wang Tao returned, Lin Yuan went to visit his mother's grave. He burned a lot of paper money in front of her grave in the valley.Then he went to the empty tomb on the barren mountain to pay homage. During the Ching Ming Festival, he asked someone to repair the outside of the empty tomb, and set up a tombstone. Two pines and cypresses were planted in front of the tomb. The pines and cypresses have grown a lot, and the repaired tomb looks decent.

After paying homage to his mother, Lin Yuan brought some presents to Uncle Wei's New Year's greetings. He returned home after dinner at Uncle Wei's house. Uncle Wei sealed a package for Lin Yuan. He didn't want anything and ran away on his bike. .

In the early morning of the second day of junior high school, Lin Yuan went to the rented house early to sell eggs. During the time ago, Lin Yuan’s home-grown eggs sold some fame. Nowadays, not only many hawkers buy from him, but some direct consumers also come here. Come on, some are bought back to eat by oneself, and some are bought back to give away. Generally speaking, the sales situation is very good.

After opening the door for a while, Lin Yuan had just laid out the eggs, and the business came to the door.

The first one who came was the peddler who Lin Yuan gave a discounted price. After he said hello to Lin Yuan, he still only did business for half a day, and bought hundreds of eggs in one go.Since he bought eggs from Lin Yuan, he never went to the countryside to collect eggs, and the price calculated by Lin Yuan for him was cheaper than the one he bought in the countryside. He made a lot of money over time. Seeing Lin Yuan now smiled brightly.

After sending him away, the people from Xinyi Cake House also came to buy goods. With the high-quality local eggs like Lin Yuan, the taste of the cakes they made immediately surpassed the other two old-fashioned cake shops, which swallowed up those two shops years ago. Many customers, the business is extremely hot, making a lot of money.Years ago, the owner of Xinyi Cake Shop specially gave Lin Yuan some beautiful and delicious small cakes, and Lin Yuan happily agreed that he would not give discounts to the other two cake shops.

It's not that Lin Yuan has shallow eyes and bought him with a few catties of cakes, but that the other two cake shops will be completely replaced by Xinyi Cake House sooner or later. Lin Yuan doesn't mind adding fire to their demise. At the same time, sell Xinyi Cake House to save face, so as to facilitate long-term cooperation in the future.

Afterwards, one after another, people came to buy eggs with baskets or baskets on their backs. It was not until after ten o'clock in the morning that the business slowed down. Lin Yuan counted and sold more than 2000 eggs in one morning, earning nearly [-] eggs. Thousands of yuan, the opening of the New Year has an opening.

Taking advantage of the lack of people at the moment, Lin Yuan took out the second-year high school physics book Mr. Li had found for him to preview. Occasionally, someone came to buy eggs, so he put down the books to do business, and the morning was over quickly.

Around noon, Wang Tao came to look for Lin Yuan on his bicycle.

"Little glutinous rice balls, my mother made lunch, come back to eat with me."

Seeing that it was almost time, Lin Yuan said, "Help me look after the stall, and I'll go upstairs to get some things." Take it out, and you can't go to someone else's house empty-handed when it's Chinese New Year. How can Lin Yuan not understand this bit of etiquette?Besides, he is taken care of by Chen Ming and his wife on weekdays, and he is grateful to them for their help without asking for anything in return, so he should give more gifts during the Chinese New Year. It's not worth mentioning at all, it can only be said that it is doing my best.

When Chen Ming saw Lin Yuan coming with large and small bags of gifts, he couldn't help but touch his forehead. He said to Lin Yuan solemnly and helplessly: "Little Tang Yuan, didn't you tell me not to bring us any more gifts? You go up." We haven't finished eating the chicken, fish, and vegetables we brought last time, you always give things like this, it's like treating me and your godmother as outsiders."

"Godfather, isn't it Chinese New Year..." Lin Yuan's expression was as innocent as possible.

"Didn't you give me New Year's greetings before?" It was his godson who humbly listened to what he said.

"That doesn't count, that's what happened last year." Lin Yuan quibbled.

Regarding Lin Yuan's 'reckless' behavior, Chen Ming was powerless, and he said very seriously: "Don't allow it next time."

Lin Yuan nodded seriously: "Yeah."

Seeing that he agreed so quickly, Chen Ming knew that he didn't listen, and he didn't know what to say to Lin Yuan's stubbornness.

After lunch, the two babies woke up, Chen Ming pushed them into the living room, and he went to make milk powder. The two babies were wearing big-colored flag jackets, and Jane’s little jacket made them look special cute.Lin Yuan and Lan Mengling hugged their elder brother and younger brother respectively. The baby who had just woken up drank a few sips of breast milk and was still hungry. His mouth was flattened as if he could cry at any time.

The elder brother seemed to like the breath of Lin Yuan very much. After being coaxed for a while, he stopped making trouble. He waved his little fleshy hand, trying to grab something. Lin Yuan stuffed his fingers into his hand. He immediately fell silent.

And the younger brother in Lan Mengling's arms couldn't be coaxed after coaxing for a long time, and burst into tears.What's rare is that this time the elder brother was not infected by the younger brother, and obediently played with Lin Yuan's fingers, showing no sign of crying at all.

"Don't cry, baby, Daddy will be here soon."

When the temperature of the milk was almost cold, Lan Mengling hurriedly fed it to her younger brother. Tears were still hanging from the corners of his eyes, and he sipped the milk until he finally stopped crying.

"Let me feed him." Just as Chen Ming was about to take his brother from Lin Yuan's arms, his brother pursed his mouth as if to cry.

"This little guy really likes you." Wang Tao couldn't help feeling emotional when he saw it in his eyes. You must know that these two little babies usually don't recognize people. After they got married, they wouldn't do it to anyone who hugged them, which was especially evident in the elder brother.

Seeing Chen Ming's sour expression, Lin Yuan curled the corner of his mouth unkindly: "Let me feed him."

Then, Chen Ming looked even more sourly at his precious eldest son obediently drinking the milk in Lin Yuan's hand, neither crying nor fussing. Dad.

After eating and drinking enough, the babies played for a while and fell asleep again.

Lin Yuan bid farewell to Chen Ming's family, and went back under Wang Tao's reluctant gaze.

Back home, Lin Yuan took Pang Dun'er to the valley, and Pang Dun'er had a great time running around in the valley, chasing chickens and fishes, and Lin Yuan practiced the boxing and kicking kung fu given to him by instructor Liang. During the practice, he felt as if There is a gentle force running through his whole body, and this feeling is something he couldn't feel in the unexpected place of the valley.After practicing once, Lin Yuan felt that her whole body was warm, as if all the cells had been nourished, and there was no discomfort anywhere in her body.This made him unable to bear to practice again...

When Lin Yuan was concentrating on it, he didn't notice that the orchid in the center of the pool was emitting more aura. The pure white aura was mixed in the mist of the valley and it was completely unrecognizable. Most of the aura had quietly entered Lin Yuan's body...

In the distance, the 'piranha' on the fence in front of the wooden house fully unfolded its petals. If you look closely, you will find that these flowers are trying their best to absorb the spiritual energy hidden in the spiritual mist, and the time is passing by every minute. Their sharp teeth hidden under the petals seemed sharper.

The night of the fifth day.

"Xiwen, you said you're going back to the army tomorrow? Haven't you finished your annual leave yet?" Liang Xiwen's grandfather asked.The old man has silver-white hair and is hale and hearty. Sitting on the sofa, his decisive temperament makes him look extremely majestic.

"In the afternoon, the army called and said that there was something I needed to go back to deal with." The call was made, but the other side only reported the incident to him, and it didn't matter if he went back or not.

Liang Xiwen's grandfather was silent for a while, and said: "It is right to put the country's affairs first, but I want to ask you, when do you plan to return to your previous position?"

"Grandpa, I think it's pretty good over there." Liang Xiwen was obviously avoiding his grandfather's questioning.

"What good can the small unit of the regular garrison do? Don't make useless excuses. I heard from the C City Military District that your small unit is likely to be relocated. You must come back to me before the relocation at the latest. You You are a national soldier, you have no willful power."

"Grandpa, I had a good time leading the recruits over there, why do you have to let me come back?"

"You don't want to come back, are you still resenting me because of his affairs?" As soon as Grandpa's words came out, the atmosphere in the living room dropped to freezing point instantly.

A trace of pain flashed in Liang Xiwen's eyes, and his voice was stiff: "Yes or no, does it still make sense?"

"Forget it." Grandpa's aura dissipated in an instant. At this moment, he was just a frustrated old man: "No matter what, I still say the same thing. When the troops move, you must come back."

"Let's talk later."
