To accompany my daughter, I worked as a chef in the kindergarten

Chapter 139 A bowl of egg fried rice that carries childhood memories!

That's lard bibimbap.

This is considered a luxury and common food in poor times.

It’s said to be luxurious because it requires lard, and you can’t eat it more than once a year.

It is common because it is relatively cheap compared to meat.

The only ingredients used are rice, soy sauce and lard.

The cost is much cheaper than meat.

It was also something that was used to satisfy one's cravings in that era.

After all, it's considered meaty.

Li Qiang was deeply impressed. When he was a child, his family was poor and could not eat meat more than once a year.

There is only the small bottle of lard that was obtained through training.

On my birthday, I dig out a little bit of lard.

A little is enough.

Just a little bit fills the house with the smell of lard.

Add soy sauce and mix it on the rice, not to mention how fragrant it is.

It can simply turn people upside down!

As a little boy, he was lying on the table.

Watching my mother make lard bibimbap.

As soon as I took out the jar of white lard and opened the lid, the room was filled with fragrance.

At this time, Li Qiang always takes a deep breath.

I am always laughed at by my mother.

Pour the lard into a small dish of soy sauce and pour it all over the rice.

After mixing evenly, it becomes a bowl of lard mixed rice.

Sometimes my mother would put a little bit of sesame oil.

Sesame oil is also very expensive, and I can’t even bear to use it when cooking.

Just use chopsticks to dip into the soy sauce.

Not to mention how fragrant it is.

Rice must also be hot, cold rice is not enough.

When it's so hot, it's so beautiful!

At that time, if anyone made pork bibimbap, their neighbors would knock on the door.

Although he can't eat meat, in Li Qiang's opinion, the taste of lard rice is no worse than that of meat.

The main reason is that it smells really good.

You can smell it from across the room.

So Li Qiang has been looking forward to his birthday.

Only on birthdays and Chinese New Year can you eat a bowl of lard rice.

That is the most luxurious enjoyment in poor times.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, I can still eat egg fried rice fried with lard.

This taste is really nostalgic.

Unfortunately, living conditions improved later on.

Eating meat has become a common thing.

Lard has become an unhealthy thing. No one uses lard for cooking anymore, just put a piece of pork on it.

Refining lard is inherently troublesome. Who would bother refining pork when we already have meat to eat?

Mom and dad also kept lamenting that life was getting better and better, and they cleaned up their meals every now and then.

Chicken, pork, duck, come in all kinds of ways.

Only Li Qiang was not very happy.

Every day during the Chinese New Year, he could eat big fish and meat, and a table full of delicious dishes, except for the bowl of lard rice.

After graduating from college, I started working and had to work overtime almost every day.

I haven’t been home for several years, let alone eating lard rice.

Li Qiang sighed.

Is this what you dream of growing up?

But after growing up, why does life become more and more difficult?

He shook his head and took several more bites of egg fried rice.

It was so fragrant that he almost forgot what happened just now.

Perhaps, only by immersing yourself in delicious food can you temporarily forget the stress of life?

One thing to say, this bowl of egg fried rice is really delicious.

Not only the bowl of lard, the boss also did a good job in all the details.

Various factors add up to create a perfect bowl of egg fried rice.

Beep!

The phone rang suddenly.

Li Qiang looked down at his phone and was stunned for a moment.

It was actually my mother calling?

Is something wrong?

He quickly picked up the phone: "Mom, what's wrong? Why did you call suddenly? Are you feeling unwell?"

"no."

On the other end of the phone, my mother's gentle voice came: "Your dad and I are fine, you don't have to worry."

"Son, today is your birthday. Mom is calling to wish you a happy birthday. Don't forget to eat something delicious!"

today is my birthday.

Li Qiang was stunned. He completely forgot about it.

Today is actually my birthday?

It's really ridiculous. On other people's birthdays, they spend their birthdays lavishly, going out to eat and have fun.

You can pour it yourself and eat egg fried rice at a roadside stall.

Mom is the only one who remembers her birthday.

Even I forgot about it and just worked overtime.

Listening to his mother's earnest instructions, Li Qiang felt the urge to cry.

He had heard such a saying before.

There is only one person in this world who will never forget your birthday.

That's your mother.

She gave birth to you on that day, so that day is not only your birthday, but also her Good Friday.

She worked hard to give birth to you, so of course she will remember your birthday.

In the past, he was always very impatient when faced with his mother's nagging, and would hang up the phone after saying a few words.
