Sweet 80s

Dabao just wanted to play a prank, so he closed the door before leaving, but he didn't expect that a rabbit would run away.

He stood there with his eyes wide open in surprise, not knowing what to do for a moment.

My mind was full of thoughts about what would happen if someone found out, Little Tail's mother would come home to make a scene, and both parents would join in the fight, and my life would be in danger.

"How do you know? One of them ran away. Did it hide in a corner of the yard and we couldn't find it?"

"The rabbit dug a hole in the corner and ran out of it."

......

Dabao threw his schoolbag to the ground, pulled his younger brother and ran towards Xiaoweiba's house.

Led by Erbao, they went around to a hole blocked with bricks at the back of the house and looked around.

"Erbao, how about we play a game?"

"I don't want to play, I'm hungry~" Erbao rubbed his belly, turned around and wanted to go home but was grabbed by his brother.

"Do you still want the katydid cage?"

Since last summer, Erbao has been clamoring for a wheat straw cage to hold katydids.

But his parents ignored this small and useless request, and they couldn’t do it themselves, so only Dabao could help him.

However, Dabao used the cage as an excuse to make all kinds of weird requests to Erbao, and then broke his promises again and again. The appeal of the katydid cage was rapidly declining.

"You won't really do it for me, you're always lying..." Erbao said this, but in fact he still had a last glimmer of fantasy in his heart.

The more people there are, the greater the hope of finding the rabbit.

Dabao vowed that he would definitely fulfill his promise this time: "If I lied to you, I would be a puppy!"

"No, if you lie to me..." Erbao's big round eyes turned quickly, and he blurted out after thinking seriously for a few seconds.

"If you don't make a cage for me, you will never be able to eat lard rice again. From now on, all the lard rice will belong to me alone!"

Erbao used the delicious food that the other party missed the most as his oath.

Because he knew that his brother would not turn into a puppy no matter what, but he would still have a chance to eat rice with lard.

"Okay! I promise you!"

We’ll talk about the future later. Dabao doesn’t have the time or energy to think about the lard rice right now. He just wants to make up for the mistake he made.

There are no other neighbors behind Xiaoweiba's house, and there was originally a field of crops.

But the soil was of poor quality and contained much gravel, so the yield of crops and vegetables grown there was too low and the land was gradually abandoned.

Next, the two children, who were not even as tall as the weeds, ran around in the wasteland, trying to find the rabbit.

Don't delay work. The longer you delay, the more trouble you'll have.

Lin Xiangdong dug the soil on both sides of the yard with just a few hoe strokes.

Seasonal vegetables were planted, including eggplants, onions, peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers.

After planting the first three, water them regularly to ensure that the soil remains moderately moist.

When the tomato seedlings grow taller, they need to be supported by supports.

Lin Xiangdong found some discarded bamboo poles and inserted them next to the tomato seedlings, and then tied them together after they grew taller.

Cucumbers have vines. When the cucumber vines grow to a certain height, it is necessary to erect frames, tie the vines, etc. to maintain the growth direction.

Lin Xiangdong also chose a light and sturdy bamboo pole.

When the melon seedlings grow climbing buds, gently guide the vines onto the bamboo poles on the rack, and then you can wait to harvest the fruits.

Wang Shuping in the kitchen was worrying about what to eat. She bought too many things, and it would be a pity if the food went bad when the weather got hot.

She thought that she had just eaten steamed noodles, so the pork belly could be left for a while longer.

The fish has been gutted, so it’s time to cook and eat it while it’s still fresh.

As for the sweet potatoes that Aunt Pang brought, they can't be kept for long in hot weather and will sprout in a few days.

So, she had an idea. Since she had to use the oil anyway, she might as well cook according to the order.

Considering that fish has bones and she was afraid that the child would not be able to eat much, she first prepared a very homely dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

She first poured the eggs and half a teaspoon of salt into a bowl, beat them, added water and stirred evenly, and then poured the egg liquid into the pot when it was hot.

After the egg liquid solidifies and turns brown around the edges, place on a plate and set aside.

Put tomatoes in the pot, stir-fry over high heat until the juice comes out, then add a little water and 2 teaspoons of sugar.

Finally, pour in the fried eggs, stir-fry and serve.

One dish has been served, and next is the children’s favorite dessert, the Northeastern home-cooked dish of candied sweet potato.

I ate some of the steamed sweet potatoes that Aunt Pang gave me, and used some of them to make porridge.

As far as Wang Shuping can remember, the sugar-coated dish seemed to have only been made once or twice.

Although it is widely praised, the method uses too much oil, so I don't make it on a daily basis.

I happened to be planning on frying fish nuggets today, so I decided to make it again.

This dish is very simple to make. First, wash the sweet potatoes, peel them, and cut them into dice for later use.

Pour oil into the pan, heat the oil to 70% to 80%, pour the sweet potatoes in and fry until golden brown, then take them out.

At this time, the fried sweet potatoes have a crispy and crispy crust, and the unique sweet aroma of the sweet potatoes is fully released.

Then Wang Shuping put the fried sweet potato pieces into a colander to drain the oil, and the rest was to boil the syrup for the candied sweet potatoes.

Wang Shuping came out of the yard and looked at the road, but did not see the children.

Since the candied potatoes need to be eaten while hot, she had to let the sweet potatoes dry and cook the grass carp first.

The fishmonger was right. Not only had the fish scales, gills and internal organs been processed very cleanly, but even the fishing line, the number one source of the fishy smell, had been beaten and pulled out by the merchant.

This saves me a lot of time and effort.

Wang Shuping chopped the fish into pieces, washed it, drained it and marinated it for half an hour, then added an appropriate amount of starch and stirred it evenly.

Heat the remaining oil again, and when the oil temperature reaches 70% hot, put the grass carp into the pan piece by piece.

The fish needs to be fried on high heat. Fry one side until it is set, then gently turn it over and fry both sides until golden brown.

Then, add seasonings and water and start stewing.

Turn down the high heat and simmer the fish. When the soup becomes thick, turn off the heat, add appropriate amount of salt, sprinkle with some scallions and coriander, and serve.

This delicious and homely braised grass carp is ready.

Hard work pays off.

About half an hour later, Erbao saw a flash of white shadow in a pile of debris deep in the weeds, so he hurriedly called Dabao.

With the two of them chasing and blocking him, they actually caught the "rabbit prisoner" who had "escaped from prison".

The moment Dabao handed the rabbit to Little Tail's family, he received continuous praise and compliments from the other family.

Dabao scratched his head and said that he just saw it when he passed by there while playing, it was just a small thing.

The big rock in their hearts finally fell at this moment. Dabao felt unprecedented relief, and the two of them hurried home.
