I collect junk in the chronology

Lu Weidong, who had been thinking about TV all night, said hello to his grandma in the morning and said goodbye to Liu Xiuying and Lu Fangfang, and rode to the mall by bicycle.

He had never been to the appliance section before, and Lu Weidong looked around curiously. This place for selling appliances is not big. Now there are only washing machines, TVs, etc., and even the flashlights are considered a big item. Things are really scarce, but this counter has nothing but a few flashlights.

The home appliance section was quite deserted, without a single customer, only a 30-year-old male salesperson bent over to wipe the cabinets with a rag, and Lu Weidong just bent over just so he didn't see him for the first time.

Lu Weidong walked over and tapped the counter a few times with slightly curved fingers. The salesperson turned his head and put down the rag to dry his hands when he heard the movement.

"Comrade, I want to ask why we don't have TVs and radios here?" Lu Weidong really didn't know much about these things. He didn't even think of buying one. After all, no one used them nearby. Can not remember.

"Haha, I know you don't understand anything." The salesman was amused by his words and made a good-natured joke and then gave him a science introduction.

"Let me tell you, everything here is in short supply, especially the radio and TV set. Although the price is very high and tickets are hard to get, it still can't stop people from scrambling to buy it! Don't you know Every time there is a stock, this person is like crazy, and he doesn't sleep at night and comes to line up."

"Haha, brother, you are really right. I just came here today, so please tell me about the price." Anyway, there is a label of "haven't seen the world" on your body, and you don't know it. Hiding it, Lu Weidong simply asked everything he wanted to ask.

In fact, the salesperson did not rarely encounter such customers, but most of them knew more or less.

Speaking of the price, the salesman also clicked his tongue, "Just one, such a big radio costs more than 100 yuan." The salesperson said while gesticulating, "There is also a TV set for 600 yuan, my dear, I can buy a little more It's a small house!" The salesman shook his head and said.

Although he sells these things, he also thinks they are expensive, and they are really not affordable for ordinary people. Every time he sees those people coming over with wads of money, his heart trembles. The money is really spent without blinking.

This trip Lu Weidong came to understand the price. Although the price is expensive, Lu Weidong is also mentally prepared. Rare things are more expensive, let alone such scarce things.

After getting to know Lu Weidong, he bought some things and went back, why not go?Even if he has the money to afford it, he doesn't have a ticket. Even if he has a ticket, no one can buy it!

Well, although Lu Weidong is really greedy for TV, there is nothing he can do about it!

On the way back, Lu Weidong passed an alley, took a few deep breaths through his nose, his eyes lit up, it was beef in sauce!

This place is on the way home, and it's very remote. He used to walk here often, after all, it can save some time, but it's the first time he encountered this kind of situation today. Lu Weidong looked around, locked the car and parked it. Turn around and go into the alley.

A chubby old man was carrying two baskets on a shoulder pole. As soon as he put the things on the ground, several old men and old ladies walked over and surrounded the baskets first.

For convenience, the fat old man wraps his things in oiled paper, and the price is clearly marked on the same portion.

"I said fat brother, why did you come so late this time, I can't wait!" An old man next to him said with a smile, and it was obvious that they were all acquaintances.

"Don't talk about it, my son got all these meat back secretly. It took a lot of effort on the road, and this time, it will be delayed." The fat man said while looking around vigilantly.

He used to open a stewed meat shop near here. The craftsmanship is passed down from family, and he has a unique secret recipe. And the limelight wasn't that strict, so he came out boldly to give it a try and earn some money.

This is the fourth time I came out, more than an hour later than usual, that's why I asked this question.

Someone next to him came to talk to him, the fat man turned his head and said with a smile, no, just as soon as he turned his head, he saw a strange face appearing in this alley that he had never seen before, the fat man was so frightened that his face turned pale , legs trembling tremblingly.

The old man next to him asked several times but no one responded, so he turned his head and patted his arm, "I said, yours is spiced..."

The old man's voice stopped abruptly, and the old man and old woman squatting aside to pick out felt something was wrong and turned their heads. They squatted on the ground one by one at a loss, looked at each other awkwardly, stood up and consciously blocked the basket.

Seeing this, Lu Weidong stopped, touched the tip of his nose, coughed twice, looked up at the sky as if he hadn't seen anything, then turned and left.

Lu Weidong was a little depressed. He thought he could buy some stewed pork back home. He hadn't smelled such an authentic taste for a long time. It's time to go shopping, so he'd better go to let the old man feel at ease.

Lu Weidong shook his head regretfully.

A group of terrified grandparents here didn't know what this operation was, so they just watched him leave in a daze, and then heard someone say, "Let's buy it quickly, and leave as soon as we finish!"

Only then did the crowd find their way and deal in a hurry. Before they left, the fat man covered his nervous thumping chest and said, "I won't be here for a while", and then hurried away with a pole.

The fat man didn't let go of his heart until he entered the house. Their house is in this area. Although the man didn't look like looking for trouble, he was still not at ease. After a while, the fat man carefully went out to look around. I am slightly relieved if I don't see it...

Lu Weidong's gluttons were indeed hooked. On the way home by bike, he couldn't help but smuggled some beef from the space, and prepared a piece of pork head, ready to let his mother cook it when he went back.

"Mom, let's marinate this meat today." When Lu Weidong got home, he carried his things into the kitchen. Their family was already accustomed to him bringing out some good things from time to time, and they automatically brought in the capable friends behind them.

It's noon now, and Hu Simei is leading her daughter-in-law to prepare for cooking in the kitchen. She is so happy to hear that her grandson wants to eat braised pork. Her grandson is so skinny, so why not eat more meat to make up for it!

Hu Simei took the meat from Lu Weidong's hand, and then smiled mysteriously, "You are the right person to ask your mother for braised pork!"

"That's what grandma said?" Lu Weidong was quite interested, leaning on the door frame and looking forward to the follow-up.

Liu Xiuying, who was burning the fire, raised her chin proudly in a place where they couldn't see.

Hu Simei told Lu Weidong while cleaning, "You don't know. In the early years, your mother was greedy for the stewed meat skills of the old man in our village. She had the cheek to talk to his daughter-in-law. She went every day and stayed there. She tried every means. You actually stole someone else's craft!"

"What is stealing! I am aboveboard!" Liu Xiuying retorted silently dissatisfied.

Then she said proudly, "Not to mention, I am definitely talented in making snacks!" Then Liu Xiuying sighed and complained, "Mom, you always say that I go to find a daughter-in-law every day, and I will explain it to you. I really went to pick up pigweed at that time." How can you say that I am lazy!

"His family's craftsmanship, I was able to taste it when we bought it back to eat, and I was more sure after going to his house and smelling it a few times." Liu Xiuying is not talking nonsense, she has this talent since she was a child, especially In terms of making snacks, but the shortage of things these years and the need to take care of two children make me not in the mood to delve into these things.

"Our family has all kinds of big ingredients. Look, mother will show you something today!" Liu Xiuying seemed to be a different person at this moment, her whole body was glowing.

"Then I'll look forward to my mother~" Lu Weidong encouraged with a smile.

Liu Xiuying really used her real skills at noon. She hasn't prepared such cumbersome ingredients for such a long time, but she still clearly remembers that Liu Xiuying used the old man's exclusive recipe to marinate a pot of meat for Lu Weidong.

At noon, the five of them were at home. They cooked a plate of vegetarian dishes, cut a plate of beef, and a plate of stewed pork head meat. Hu Simei even baked a pot of pancakes. Lu Weidong laughed when he saw it, and got up and took five pancakes to put on the plate. Go into the kitchen, take a sharp knife and cut a piece of pie in the middle, then take out a piece of fat pork head from the pot on the side, put it on the chopping board and add other side dishes, "Tuk Tuk Tuk" Chop things into small pieces, hold pancakes in one hand, shovel things up with a knife in the other hand, and put a roujiamo on it.

After repeating this several times, Lu Weidong poured some soup on each of them, and it was complete. Satisfied, he took the plates back to the dining table, handed one to his grandma, then gave it to his mother and Liu Fangfang, and finally picked it up and took a bite. go down~

Well, the mouth is full of fragrance, fat but not greasy, there is a trace of lean meat in the fat that melts with a sip, coupled with the pancakes that have absorbed the soup, you can't stop eating~

Lu Weidong and Lu Fangfang kept giving Liu Xiuying thumbs up, amazing!

It was rare for Simei Hu not to criticize, and even Lu Dazhu, the head of the family who had always been calm, even praised her a few times.

Liu Xiuying feels that she is at the top now, full of energy!

Afterwards, Lu Weidong returned to the school classroom, Bai Lao, cafeteria, and dormitory at four o'clock and one line. He left early and returned late all day long. To the designated location, Translator Pan had sent someone to deliver a message to him that he had researched the route.

Lu Weidong took them to visit some of the most famous scenic spots in Beijing, led them to eat special food, and did a good job as a tour guide professionally.

"Lu, you are really mature for your age, which makes me more and more interested in you. The words you unconsciously reveal always give me some refreshing feelings. I really want to bring you back to China. Do you want to be with me? Going back to China together?" About to say goodbye, Smith stood at the door and said reluctantly, he admired this young man very much, he was thoughtful, thoughtful and courageous, he was a talent, if he brought him back to China and stayed by his side, he would definitely become his right-hand man in the future!

Lu Weidong didn't expect Smith to think so highly of him, how could he be unhappy to be recognized, Lu Weidong smiled happily, but he politely replied to Smith's desire to bring him back to China: "Mr. Smith, I am very glad that you give me such high praise evaluation, but I love my motherland and will not settle abroad!" Although Lu Weidong was polite, he was still firm.

Smith sighed regretfully, "We are leaving soon, I wonder if there will be a chance to meet again in the future."

Lu Weidong smiled, stepped forward and hugged him, "Please don't be sad, maybe we will meet again in the future."

The foreign friends behind Smith also reluctantly stepped forward to give Lu Weidong a hug.

It was late when Lu Weidong said goodbye to them and returned to the dormitory. After walking around for a day, his feet were almost useless. He hurriedly soaked his feet in hot water, washed them quickly, and fell asleep in the blink of an eye.
