Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 46 Braised Pork Ribs with Rice or Braised Pork

When they returned to the mountain, Grandma Lin had already cooked dinner and was sitting at the door looking out. When she saw them coming back, she quickly got up and ran over.

"Old lady, slow down." Old Mr. Lin looked at his old lady running towards them, feeling a little anxious, and was about to go forward to greet her.

Lin Qingyan had already walked a few steps to the old lady's side.

"Grandma, please slow down."

At this time, Mr. Lin also walked to the side and patted the old woman's hand. "You are so old, but you still think you are a little girl. You dare to run when you walk. Don't do this again next time."

"I know, I know. I've been waiting for you for the whole morning. Is the matter done?" In order to avoid being nagged, the old lady quickly changed the subject.

"It's done. The police officer from the police station who went there today was very nice and helped a lot. The name has also been changed to Lin Qingyan." The old man explained to the old lady.

"That's great, we will really have another granddaughter in the future."

Seeing that his old lady was about to get sad again, Grandpa Lin quickly winked at Lin Qingyan, "Grandma, what did you cook for lunch? It smells so good!"

"Hey, I've cooked some pork ribs and rice. It's ready. You must be hungry after traveling back and forth. Let's go and eat.

Qingyan, I told you that my old man likes the pork ribs stewed with rice that I cook the most. He liked to eat it when he was young, and even when his teeth were loose, he still asked me to make it often. "

"Then grandma, you have to teach me how to make this pork ribs stewed with rice. Once I learn it, I will cook it for you in the future."

"Okay, okay, okay, then I'll wait for my granddaughter to be filial."

The three of them devoured the whole pot of pork ribs stewed with rice, and the vegetables brought by Lin Qingyan also received unanimous praise from the old couple.

"Qingyan, the dishes you brought look great and taste better than the ones we grow. They smell good and make me feel very energetic."

"Grandpa and grandma, if you like it, I'll bring you more next time."

"No, no, that's what grandma said." The old lady quickly waved her hand to refuse.

"Grandma, I grew a lot of vegetables. If you can't finish them, I'll send some to you every few days."

"Qingyan, grandma doesn't ask where you live or where you work. You don't have to visit us every day. When you have nothing to do, you can come over to sit with grandpa and grandma and have a meal with us."

The old lady looked at Lin Qingyan kindly, as if she was looking at others through her.

Mr. Lin also agreed with the old lady. He could see that the girl wanted to find an opportunity to repay them.

He knew that the ID card might have helped the child solve a big problem, but one should not be grateful for a favor, just like this child saved them the first time he saw them.

"Girl, you don't have to feel burdened. Just live your life as usual. Just think of it as knowing another relative you can interact with. Relatives can visit each other occasionally to maintain the relationship."

Lin Qingyan was very touched. Apart from her parents and Ye Yi, these were the only two people who were inexplicably kind to her.

"Thank you, grandpa and grandma, you are my only relatives in this world."

As usual, Lin Qingyan added some space water to the old couple's drinking water, and helped them water the vegetable plots nearby, of course, using space water that was diluted many times.

After finishing all these, Lin Qingyan said goodbye to the two of them, took her brand new ID card, and went down the mountain back to the 70s.

In mountainous rural areas, many families have already started cooking dinner at around 4 o'clock. Eating dinner before dark is the habit of most families. After all, in the era without electricity, kerosene lamps were also expensive.

After returning to the educated youth point, Lin Qingyan used the pot in the kitchen to boil some water for bathing.

She went to the space to cook dinner again. She had become accustomed to cooking in the space. This way, even if she cooked a meat dish, the whole youth cadre would not be able to smell it, and it could also improve the food.

Lin Qingyan is going to cook some braised pork today to celebrate the fact that she finally has her own identity in modern times and is no longer afraid of being investigated as an illegal resident.

Boil water in a pot, put the washed pork belly in the pot and boil it, remove it and cut it into thick squares, and set aside the chopped ginger and garlic.

Heat the wok again, pour in a little oil, put in ginger and garlic, add the pork belly and stir-fry over low heat, drain the oil and use it next time. When the pork belly changes color, pour in some cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, add some soy sauce to adjust the color, stir-fry for a while until the meat is colored, then add some boiling water and cook for half an hour.

The cooked meal was served. It was just getting a little dark outside. Lin Qingyan filled a bowl with it and came to Ye Yi's door.

After knocking on the door, Ye Yi's voice came from inside the room: "Who is it?"

"it's me."

The door opened with a creaky sound. Ye Yi, holding a sweet potato in her hand, looked at Lin Qingyan who was standing outside the door.

"Why did you come to see me now?"

"I'll bring you some food." Lin Qingyan said as she walked into the house. Sure enough, she saw Ye Yi's dinner for the day on the table, steamed sweet potatoes and boiled water.

"Ye Yi, we have some money now, and we should improve our lives. Why do you eat this?" Lin Qingyan looked at Ye Yi disapprovingly.

"I'm used to it. Next time I'll go to town and buy some meat and some fine flour." Ye Yi looked at the steamed bun in Lin Qingyan's hand and said angrily.

"Youth is the capital of revolution. Only by keeping healthy can you contribute to the construction of the countryside. I will go out and bring you some tomorrow."

After Lin Qingyan finished speaking, she placed the bowl on Ye Yi's table and said, "I'll help you satisfy your craving."

"Qingyan, I really like you so much. You are my biological sister. No other biological sister is as close to me as you." Ye Yi approached him in a fawning manner.

After saying that, he quickly took a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into his mouth. His eyes narrowed because of the delicious taste.

"Put aside the meat. I want to take the bowl back to eat." Lin Qingyan looked at her friend who had already eaten the second piece. Her stomach started to growl and she just wanted to go back and eat.

"You haven't eaten it either. Don't send it to me next time. Eat it yourself."

Although Ye Yi was very greedy and liked the dishes cooked by Lin Qingyan, she was embarrassed to eat and drink for free every day.

"You can't make me poor even if you eat me up." Lin Qingyan rolled her eyes rarely, turned around and walked out with the bowl.

Lin Qingyan returned to the house and finished her dinner before dawn. She had been running all day. Her body, which had been conditioned by the space water for a long time, did not feel tired, but she felt a little tired mentally, so she did not run to the modern night market again.

Little did she know that an opportunity was waiting for her in the modern times. At this moment, she took a shower early, went to bed and fell asleep.
