I returned to my hometown after winning the koi lottery.

In the morning, just as it was getting light, I heard the sound of a motorcycle.

Early in the morning, the chefs from Kouzi Kitchen arrived, and the symphony of pots and pans began. For the lunch, usually the whole village plus relatives and friends would come, and there would probably be dozens of tables, so many dishes need to be prepared in advance. Generally, the main dishes on the big table are perfect.

In fact, the perfect meal is ten plates and ten bowls. Nowadays, farmers' living conditions are relatively good. If the main meal is too shabby, people will criticize it.

Chicken, duck, fish and meat are the main ingredients in mainland China, unlike the south which has more seafood. Villages generally rely on the skills of the chefs. Don’t be fooled by the simple ingredients, it still takes quite a lot of effort to prepare.

Sister Xiaoyu mumbled sleepily, "Is there loach stewed with tofu?"

Sister Tao laughed and retorted to her, "We don't eat loaches at the main banquet. I'm still thinking about your loaches. I know it's your contribution, so I saved them for you to make a big dish." Hehehe!

Sister Xiaoyu rubbed her eyes and tried to get up to help. Sister Xiaotao immediately stopped her. "You don't have to get up. The Kouzi kitchen is responsible for the whole table. We don't need your help. They are all professionals. Frying, cooking, and stir-frying require perfect procedures, so if you don't understand, don't interfere."

We helped pack up yesterday afternoon and were pretty tired. We lay in bed for a while and felt pretty good.

Sister Xiaoyu grinned. "You were so drunk yesterday, it was scary. You were like a completely different person, talking to yourself stupidly and laughing. I don't know how scary it was. I didn't even sleep in the same bed with you because I was afraid you would do something bad to me."

Sister Tao smiled and replied, "I haven't really been drinking much, so I don't know how much I can drink. It just so happened that we were at my uncle's house, and I was happy, so I dared to drink freely. I wouldn't drink outside. Come on, come on, tell me what my situation is."

After a while, I heard my aunt-in-law calling the chefs, smoking and drinking tea. The two of them got up, washed up, and went downstairs to see if there was anything they could help with. Unexpectedly, the chefs were almost done, frying the fish and chicken.

The braised pork was already cooking in the pot, and the rich aroma of meat filled the air. It looked good. The lamb was simmering in the soup pot. The beef was kept warm in a hanging pot. The braised pig's head was very beautiful, red and shiny. When Master Wang saw the two girls coming, he immediately swung his knife and sliced ​​off a few slices of the pig's face, then took a piece of the freshly steamed old dough bun and handed it to Sister Xiaoyu. Come on, try our Chinese hamburger, haha

Xiaoyu took it and gave one to Xiaotao. The two squatted on the steps at the door, munching away. Down below, several of my uncle's puppies whimpered and ran around Xiaoyu. One was particularly adorable, a black and white one. It looked a bit odd, with black eye sockets and ears, but a white head. The more I looked at it, the more it resembled a red panda. But even if it resembled a red panda, it wasn't. Its every move was dog-like, though rather silly. When its siblings squeezed it, it rolled over a few times, making it even cuter.

Sister Xiaoyu likes her so much that she always feeds her with steamed buns and minced meat. She is the only little female dog in the house, and she is round and cute.

Sister Xiaotao had an idea and decided to let Sister Xiaoyu take this one back. Local dogs are easy to raise. Sister Xiaoyu has no family. If she returns home and is greeted by a puppy, she will definitely be very happy, haha!

Nowadays, there are still many people who keep dogs, whether in rural areas or cities! It’s just that people in cities like to keep some breeds of pet dogs, while in rural areas, there are more Chinese pastoral dogs! When I was a child, there were all kinds of purebred Chinese pastoral dogs in the village, such as Dahuang, Dahui, Ahua, Dabai, etc. Now there are more mixed breeds! There are very few purebred Chinese pastoral dogs~

Native dogs are not valuable here, but they are very expensive abroad. Native dogs are a very smart dog breed. They used to be widely found in rural Han Chinese areas and Southeast Asia. Now urbanization also widely regards Chinese native dogs as pet dogs.

The most common place to see native dogs is in the countryside. When you walk in the countryside, you can basically see native dogs in every street and alley. These native dogs are free-range, and some are tied up at home to guard the house. Now most city dwellers still like to import dogs, thinking that their bloodline is pure.

Xiao Tao has been around local dogs a lot since she was little, and has a special affection for them. Many people say that local dogs are bad or too stupid, but Xiao Tao disagrees. Local dogs are actually quite intelligent, and their IQ is actually ranked in the top 20 among dogs. The cutest one is the black and white local dog. It looks very good, and its fur is a bit like a cow's, with black and white spots on its body. It looks very good. Xiao Yu likes it very much and fell in love with it the first time she saw it.

After finishing her steamed bun, Xiao Tao went to her grandmother's house. The hustle and bustle of people along the way made Shanghe Village seem very lively. Many children came out to play, and the sound of children laughing and playing reminded Xiao Tao of her own childhood experience living at her grandmother's house.

Because my uncle's family is so senior, they were going to show a movie when they entered the house. Many people stayed home; if they had nothing else to do, they would go out to work. Normally, in the village, most of those who stayed home were elderly.

The roadside store is a more interesting place in the village. It is not usually so lively. There are already many sisters-in-law and aunts knitting sweaters and chatting there.

Seeing Sister Xiaotao coming over, many people greeted her. "Seventh Aunt, have you eaten?" Sister Xiaotao smiled and answered the questions of these nieces-in-law who she didn't know very well.

In the past few years, when I was in school, all the nephews in the village, not the younger generation, got married and even had children. I hardly recognized Sister Tao anymore. In the past, their parents would come to give gifts when they got married. But Sister Tao was still very famous in the village. After all, she was a college student who was admitted to a prestigious university, and the villagers still respected people with knowledge.

The young wives were still very gossipy and wanted to chat with Sister Tao. "Seventh Aunt, are you going to Grandma's house?" Sister Tao smiled and replied, "Yes, I want to see if Grandma is up. I haven't seen them for a long time and I miss them. I want to chat with them more."

Seventh Aunt is really filial. I heard that you bought a big gold bracelet for Grandma. Look how chatty she is now. Haha.

Yes, I just started working too. I got my first month salary and bought a piece of jewelry for my grandma to commemorate her. Sister Xiaotao immediately praised herself!

Oh, what a great job, Aunt Qi! Selling gold must be very profitable, right? I think that big gold bracelet must weigh two taels.
