Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year

Several women were rushing back to prepare lunch, so they finished work early in the threshing ground.

Lin was thinking about building a house and didn't notice the hesitant expression of Zhou's daughter-in-law next to her.

Cui family.

Old Mrs. Cui has already rolled out the noodles.

Mrs. Lin used white flour to make the dough. When Mrs. Cui saw it, her heart ached. While Mrs. Lin was away, she added most of the buckwheat flour into the dough.

I also saved half of the dough to eat tomorrow.

"We still have to plan carefully these days."

Old Mrs. Cui was cutting noodles while muttering to herself.

When Lin came back and saw the black noodles, she didn't say anything.

The pork rib soup in the pot was already emitting a fragrant aroma. After adjusting the flavor, Lin went to the field to pick a handful of green onions, cut them into evenly sized pieces, and sprinkled them into the pork rib soup.

When Old Man Cui and his group returned from the fields, the familiar big table was set up in the yard again.

"It smells so good, Auntie San!"

Xiaoqi put down the small backpack, rubbed against Lin's side, and sniffed wildly with his little nose.

"If it smells good, eat more. I'm eating spareribs for lunch today. Go wash your hands quickly."

The ribs were divided into two portions, one was kept for chewing, and the meat from the other was removed and put into the noodle soup.

Lin’s philosophy is that if you can eat it fresh, don’t keep it for later consumption.

The family is not short of money now, so there is no need to suffer.

What's more, there are many children in the family, and they are in the period of growth. They were very hungry before, so now they need to eat more and supplement their nutrition.

When Xiaoqi heard this, he jumped up and went to wash his hands happily.

Old Mrs. Cui was still feeling smug about the noodles, thinking she had saved food again, but when she saw the noodle soup, she felt a blackout.

"Third daughter-in-law, you..." Old Mrs. Cui pinched herself halfway through her words, forced her brows to relax, and said tentatively: "We can't finish all this meat, why don't we save half for the next meal."

At this time, Cui Zhaozhao came out with a large plate of pork ribs. The ribs in the basin were piled together like a small mountain.

Old Mrs. Cui couldn't help herself and said quickly, "We won't eat spare ribs at noon. We can't eat spare ribs even with noodles. Second girl, take it back quickly."

"Mom, there's not much meat on the ribs. There are so many of us, we can finish two each."

Lin said gently, asking Cui Zhaozhao to put the ribs in the middle of the table.

Old Mrs. Cui wanted to say something, but was stopped by Old Man Cui.

Old man Cui smiled and reached out to take a piece of pork ribs.

"I haven't had spareribs in a long time. The last time I had them was at someone's wedding. There was a dish of roasted spareribs at the table. The meat was so tender."

Old Mrs. Cui muttered quietly, "What's the point of eating spare ribs? What's the point of being tender? It won't fill my stomach. I'd rather buy two more pounds of meat with this money. The lean meat will be tender when stewed..."

Old man Cui ignored her and started eating his ribs.

The ribs cut by the uncle at the butcher stall were very long, one was almost as long as his forearm. Old man Cui held the ribs in both hands and chewed them with relish.

Lin also handed one to each of the children.

"Everyone, eat. I didn't put any vegetables in these ribs. I just stewed them in plain water."

With Old Man Cui leading the way, the children also rolled up their sleeves and started to eat with big mouthfuls.

The pigs here are not as fat as those in later generations, and the ribs are all lean meat, but it does not affect the delicious taste.

Especially the spareribs stewed in clear water, the whole mouth is filled with the aroma of spareribs meat.

Everyone at the table was gnawing on spareribs, and Dahei and Xiaohei were so anxious that they were circling under the table.

While Old Lady Cui wasn't paying attention, Cui Zhaozhao secretly threw two ribs under the table to satisfy the two puppies' cravings.
