Returning to the Pastoral: Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 103 New Year's Eve Dinner

After sacrificing the ancestors, it's time for the New Year's Eve dinner.Naturally, the first dish is served as a "family head sacrifice", but this head sacrifice is slightly different from the place where ancestors are sacrificed.

Take down the home offerings enshrined to the ancestors, add shredded venetian leaves, fried tofu and chopped potherb mustard pickles, called "Ruyi dishes".

Because the shape of soybean sprouts is similar to "ruyi", it can send a word of "ruyi and auspiciousness", and New Year's Eve is the last night of the twelfth lunar month, so the activities during this period are mainly about getting rid of the old and welcoming the new, eliminating disasters and praying for good fortune.

Therefore, this first dish must be served with this Ruyi dish. After eating Ruyi dish, the four seasons of the coming year will be happy. This is an indispensable dish for every thirty households in Yunzhou.

Although it is all made of vegetables, it is a mixture of homemade potherb mustard, the crispness of bean sprouts and the fragrance of various bean products. It is delicious when eaten in your mouth.

Su Yun remembered that he could eat this dish for many days in a row when he was a child, and he never felt tired of eating it, so it was a special meal.Every Chinese New Year, a large pot will be made at home, which can be eaten for many days.

In the old days, it was not popular to cook on New Year's Eve. Many dishes were reheated and eaten again, so the portions were very generous.The same is true of the rules of this world.

Therefore, Su Yun made a big pot of this wishful dish, although it is not very good for people to eat vegetables overnight.But in this era of extreme material scarcity, there is not so much emphasis.

After serving Ruyi dishes, there is braised carp, which is also an indispensable dish on the New Year's Eve table, which means "more than every year".Anyway, it's all for auspiciousness, and the ancients paid special attention to these things.

When the fish is served, it is braised pork, roasted venetiana, stir-fried lamb tripe, homemade tofu, red robe prawns, cold duck gizzards, sweet and sour cabbage, candied radish heads, braised lamb, stir-fried razor clams, fried shrimp balls, curry Fish balls plus a stewed mutton soup and mutton dumplings and egg dumplings waiting to be cooked...

Such a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner made the eyeballs of the little ghosts almost drop.Although they knew that this year's New Year's Eve dinner would be good when they were helping out these two days, they still couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised when these dishes were placed in front of them.

Many are places they have never eaten and seen.Su Yun also used all his skills for this New Year's Eve dinner. There is no way, the material life is too scarce these days, and many things can't be bought.

In order to get some curry powder, she went to many stores and finally bought it.The Liang people don't seem to like this stuff very much, but the price is extremely expensive.It is said that even in the place where it was produced in Tianzhu country, it is also priced like gold.

It's not so much that Liang people don't like it, it's better to say that they don't know how to use this mixed spice.Originally, the taste of the Central Plains from Tianzhu was made according to the habits of Tianzhu people. It smells delicious, but it is unbearable after eating it.

What is this all about!The original taste of the ingredients is all covered up, and the mouth is full of spices.How could the people of Liang, who pay attention to "never tire of food, never tire of fine food", like it?
However, Su Yun, who came from a later generation and is quite proficient in cooking, of course knows how to improve the usage of curry, which is naturally impossible according to the usage habits of the people of Tianzhu.In fact, this curry tastes quite pleasing if you add a little bit of it. Don’t you see that the improved version of Chinese curry rice is very popular in the future?
"too delicious!"

Lu Huaner's mouth was full of oil, and a pair of chopsticks picked it up quickly. He called out a fish ball and said vaguely: "Sister-in-law, what is added to this? It's delicious..."

Sure enough, the curry fish balls are the children's favorite, as well as the prawn balls. In the blink of an eye, the two dishes are bottomed out.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke."

Seeing these little ghosts looking like reincarnated ghosts, and comparing each other who eats more, Su Yun was worried for them.These guys have also been fed by themselves for many days, why are they still so vigorous?
We can't blame the Lu family's brats for being ugly.It's that most of the dishes on this table have never been tasted, and they have seen them before.In addition, Su Yun's craftsmanship is really good. These little guys still feel that their sister-in-law can surprise them every time they eat it every day, and they can't get enough of it.

In fact, not to mention these brats, even Su Yun's eating habits are not much better.Although it can be regarded as a small glutton in modern times, it is also a well-known foodie in the circle, enclaves in the sky, swim in the water, eat anything, and will eat.

But how can those modern industrially polluted stuff compare with this kind of pollution-free, non-GMO pure natural ingredients?With this little advantage plus the extraordinary cooking skills, Ms. Su wanted to cry while eating: Miss Su's craftsmanship is so good, I was even moved by myself. (Bah, morality has dropped again!)
But seeing that everyone was eating almost, Su Yun got up and went to the kitchen.Although there is no habit of eating dumplings in the Jiangnan area, since I made dumplings today, I naturally have to eat some. Is it a good thing to be more lucky?Who doesn't want it?

Besides, there are such delicious mutton dumplings and egg dumplings, don't you want to eat two worthy of the name of the king of foodies? !

After the dumplings were finished, the dumplings were served on the table. Every child was already full, but these snacks still picked up a dumpling to try something new.After tasting it, I wanted to eat it again, but was stopped by Su Yun.Eating too much food is not good for the body!

Today, the little ones have already filled their stomachs, they are round and full, and they are still belching.

"Come on, let's set off firecrackers and fireworks. It's just a good time to digest food. It's not too late to eat later if you're hungry..." Su Yun took out the firecrackers and fireworks that he had prepared earlier, as well as Spring Festival couplets and big blessings. What to do during the New Year's Eve dinner is just to digest the food you just ate, and to have fun. It's the best of both worlds!

The children cheered, and the fireworks attracted them a lot!After all, there are too few entertainment activities these days.

Su Yun took the fireworks and firecrackers out of the yard, first arranged the firecrackers one by one, lit a stick of incense, then drove the children away, took the lit incense to light the fuse of the firecrackers, and then left quickly .

Fortunately, Ms. Su was also a female man in her previous life, and she did such things as lighting firecrackers and fireworks.If it was another delicate girl, she might be dumbfounded.

But female men don't have such worries. Although firecrackers are different from later generations of firecrackers, as long as there is a lead wire, it will not be difficult for Miss Su.

Covering my ears, there was a loud "bang", and the firecracker exploded...

The subsequent fireworks also bloomed beautifully in the night sky.This scene is everywhere in the village and outside the village. The light from the fireworks and firecrackers illuminates the relatively dilapidated small courtyard of the Su family. Su Yun and a group of children looked up at this beautiful scene, and the light and shadow kept passing over them. , with those cheeks full of smiles, the new year is coming...
