???? When the news of Xu Chen's death spread, Tie Qing was preparing the ingredients for the hot pot at night.

???? After buying tofu yesterday, he also went to buy mutton.

???? In the winter in Northeast China, there are no green vegetables to eat. All they eat are dried vegetables. There are too few green vegetables. Finally, the few boxes of green vegetables they planted in the house in wooden boxes can be eaten. Tie Qing immediately plans to have a hot pot meal .

???? Winter can not live without hot pot!

???? At this time in the Northeast, there is no hot pot in the village.

???? So Tie Qing's pot was taken out of his living space, and it was used in the last days.

????The spinach at home is edible, although there are only two plates.

???? Then there is a plate of coriander, a plate of rapeseed, a plate of cabbage heart, and a plate of fungus.

???? Two plates of sliced ​​potatoes and one plate of sweet potato slices.

???? Tie Qing brought the frozen mutton into the house, cut it into thin slices with the knife himself.

???? I cut ten plates of mutton, eight plates of beef, and two plates of morel slices.

???? I bought two plates of frozen tofu, cut a large pot of sauerkraut, and hand-rolled noodles.

???? There are dried mushrooms in the house, and they are also soaked in hair. Everyone is very surprised to see Tie Qing busy.

???? "In the evening, let's have a hot pot together." Tie Qing was chopping vegetables.

???? Brother Xiao listened to him, and found sesame paste, fermented bean curd, and chive flower sauce: "Xianggong knows so much!"

???? He never knew that there is such a thing as hot pot.

???? "Sanggong knows that there are many more delicious ones. It's convenient and easy. We don't have much mutton left. Let's go to the county tomorrow and buy some more mutton." Tie Qing has suffered a lot. People, but isn't he having a good life now?He regained a bit of his pre-apocalyptic character, such as eating well and dressing warmly.

???? After the apocalypse, hot pot became one of his delicious memories.

????Now he has the opportunity to eat hot pot conditionally, of course he will not let go of this opportunity.

???? In the past, it was not good at Lao Xiao's house. He borrowed it, but now he is at his own house, so he started to toss about.

???? It was agreed that the couple would come for dinner, so the others were rubbing corn particles on the kang in the house.

???? It's not even dinner time, it's eleven o'clock in the noon, someone knocked on the door, the door of their house is specially made, most people can't knock, but Tie Qing pulled a rope at the door , leading directly to the eaves, and a copper bell hung on the other end.

????As soon as someone comes, just pull the rope, and the bell will ring. This earth-made automatic doorbell is quite easy to use.

???? There was a ringing at this moment. Tieli went out to see it. Seeing that it was the old village head Wei, he quickly opened the small door on the gate... The gate is too big and heavy, and most people can't push it There is a small door on the gate, which is convenient for people to go back and forth.

???? Bringing Old Village Chief Wei into the house, Old Chief Xiao was quite surprised: "Old Village Chief Wei?"

???? "Sit down, Brother Xiao, go and pour water!" Aunt Xiao directed Xiao Brother to work as usual, but Sister Xinghua had already brought something.

????In the wooden tray, there is a large pot of hot tea and eight large tea bowls. People from the Northeast have a bold personality, and the things used here are also very large. There are no small tea cups or sip cups (wine cups). Marketing.

???? So they are all big tea bowls, but they don’t have lids.

???? There is also a plate of melon seeds, a plate of peanuts, a plate of Su Guoer and a plate of trough cakes.

???? This standard of hospitality can be said to be very high-end, it is not the old village chief Wei who is coming, and Tie Qing will not ask Mrs. Xinghua to prepare such things.

????Old Village Chief Wei didn't expect to get such a high salary.

???? But on the kang, drank hot tea and ate snacks, the old village head Wei said: "I just came to tell you, Mrs. Xu Chen... went there this morning, and the family has already started buying tofu for funerals son meal."

???? "This... I heard from Qing Hanzi yesterday that it was doing well. I went to Lao Sun's tofu shop to buy tofu. I heard that a few men from their Lao Xu's house got together last night and ate it. One meal." Everyone in the village knew that Mrs. Xu Chen was against splitting up the family at that time, but the sons had grown up and didn't listen to her as a mother, so they split up.

????But in order to be considerate of the mother, several boys from Lao Xu’s family decided to get together every month, not limited to the first and fifteenth day of the new year. Anyway, they want to see the old mother. This is also a good story in the village .

???? But how long has Mrs. Xu Chen been tossing around?

???? This is gone?Yesterday, Tie Qing came back and said that when she met Mrs. Xu Chen, this old woman really hates her!

???? As a result, today the village chief said that there were no more people.

???? "Why didn't you?" Old Xiao boss asked.

????Old Aunt Xiao glanced at him, and Brother Xiao also glanced at his father.

???? Tie Qing didn't know what was going on here, but only knew that her husband seemed very unhappy, so she couldn't help reaching out, holding Brother Xiao's little paw, and squeezed it.

???? Xiao Geer sniffed and didn't show his face anymore.

???? "I don't know why it just disappeared." As a result, the old village head Wei said: "It's the same as when Lao Xu was gone. Both of them were lying on the kang and fell asleep after sleeping. Some people said that the Feng Shui of their house was not good, and some said it was restrained by Xu Xiaomei, who was not married, because Xu Xiaomei was born in the zodiac of the tiger, and said that she was the white tiger star who restrained her father and mother."

???? "This talent is dead, so why do people start talking nonsense?" Old Xiao Boss said a fair word: "Then what does Mr. Xu mean?"

???? "Their home will serve tofu rice tomorrow, let's go eat it, and then have a funeral and bury it. It's not easy to build a pit in this winter, and you have to burn a lot of firewood!" Old Village Chief Wei Also very busy: "I still have to take Boss Xu to the town to tell the old village head, and ask Brother Xiao to go with you."

???? If someone dies in the village, it must be reported. Whether it is the end of life or a violent death, the household registration must be cancelled.

????Actually, according to the normal process, there must be an official from the yamen to see the deceased. It is best to die naturally. If there is an abnormal death, it will be troublesome.

???? For example, those who went up the mountain the year before last, if the old village chief Wei and the family who had the accident had not taken the money, they would have done it to see if they died abnormally, and it would be even more troublesome if they had to do an autopsy.

???? So usually, the village head, the village elders and the head of the village will have a three-party discussion, and then go to the county government to say hello, put a little money, and give the result of dying, and ask him to issue an autopsy report. In ancient times, it was called The corpse, and then the funeral can be carried out.

???? Rural people don't pay attention to those trivial things, only rich and noble people will pay attention to this and that.

???? But for the funeral in the winter, the burial pit is not easy to dig. Let’s not talk about how cold and tiring the field work is in this deadly cold day. Let’s just say that the soil layer is so frozen that it is difficult to move the shovel and pick. !

???? What should I do?

???? Later, Tie Qing discovered that the ancients also had a method. They gathered a fire in the cemetery and used the fire to melt the permafrost, and then dig a hole. This took two days to complete, and then Just bury the coffin, bury the pit and raise the grave.

???? But now, in the Northeast, going out in the winter is indeed a suffering.

???? Tie Qing nodded when he saw the old man's pole, and hurriedly said: "Then I will set up a carriage for you, and I want the one with the shed. There is also a heater inside, at least it can block the wind and make it warmer."

???? "Okay, let's take that carriage!" Old Chief Xiao agreed. The carriage was specially built by Tie Qing, so that it would be more comfortable when traveling in winter.

???? A big horse is used to pull the cart, and three people can sit in the cart.

????The carriage is not big, but it does block the wind. There are grass mats in the car. On the straw mat is a quilt. There is a small iron stove, which can burn firewood and coal, and there is a small chimney leading to the outside, which will not stuff the car, and the heating effect is very good. It is a pleasure to have such a car when traveling in winter.

???? There is even a small tin pot, which can heat hot water. Of course, there is also a small soup pot, which can heat soup. If the road is far away, warm some sheep soup, it will be more delicious to drink cold .

????Old boss Xiao doesn't want to go out in the winter, and freeze himself out for the sake of other people's affairs.

????The old village chief Wei also wanted to go, the two old men were in a car, and the driver was none other than Wei Daliang, the eldest son of the old Wei village chief's family.

???? Tie Qing didn't go, he still talked about eating hot pot at night.

???? It was because it was an old woman who died. Aunt Xiao took brother Xiao to Lao Xu's house. The mother and son brought two bundles of yellow watch paper, the kind without patterns, and two plain White linen, two bolts of plain white sackcloth.

???? At this time, we can only send this kind of cloth.

???? In addition, there was a gift of [-] Wen.

????Old Xiao's family has ten essays, and Old Tie's family has ten essays.

???? Although Xu Xiaomei was so frightened that she lay on the kang and pretended to be dead, but now that Mrs. Xu and Chen have passed away, Mr. Xu is no longer afraid of her, so she immediately cried out, without doing anything else, and knelt on her mother's coffin Before you go, just kowtow to the visitor, that's all.

???? Don't you understand this bit of etiquette?

????Xu Xiaomei has no backer, and her elder brother doesn't treat her very well, so she has no choice but to get up from the kang and kneel in the straw hut built outside in winter. The coffin is parked in the hut, who will burn the incense She kowtows to people.

Not to mention the shivering in the cold weather, she also suffered a huge shock, but she didn't have a good life. After this ordeal, her face was pale and pale, and she couldn't cry, but the tears froze .

???? Seeing Lao Xiao's house and Lao Tie's house, Aunt Xiao and Mr. Xiao Fulang coming, she immediately lost her temper... She thought that if Tie Qing came, she would be ready to rely on him !

???? As a result, Li Qing didn't come at all!

???? It was Xiao Fulang who came.

????Incense, and then kowtow to thank.

???? The mother and son didn't eat the tofu rice here at all. In fact, the white meals prepared by the old Xu's family were stewed tofu with cabbage and tofu mixed with spring onions, as well as four dishes of stir-fried dried tofu and stewed frozen tofu with vermicelli.

???? It's not bad, because there are four brothers in the old Xu family, so there are four dishes.

????The staple food is steamed buns with corn noodles, and their family can't afford steamed buns with Lianghe noodles.

???? And because of Xu Chen's sudden death, this Wowotou is still a dead-faced Wowotou!

???? Brother Xiao doesn't like to eat even more, he should go home with his mother to eat the hot pot prepared by Xianggong.

????Old boss Xiao drove out, probably won't be able to come back at night, and will have to stay in the county town for a night, but if you have enough money, you don't need to worry about your family.

???? Hot pot can't wait any longer, Tie Qing is ready to eat hot pot at night.

???? But in the evening, Aunt Xiao and Brother Xiao came back, and Boss Xiao also came back!
