Zhou's return gift was of course much more exquisite. Even the piece of furoshiki used to wrap things was made of particularly good materials.

In Xu's words, it's just the perfect fit for wearing a bellyband for the little pumpkin.

Zhang Sijiu touched the material, looked at the pattern, and thought it made sense: "It's quite suitable."

It's very practical.

Mrs. Xu sighed: "Ms. Zhou has put all her thought into this. She always considers our family."

Zhang Sijiu also felt the same way: Although the dim sum was exquisite, it was just for eating. It was the same as what they gave. It did not appear particularly expensive and gave people a sense of normal courtesy. Moreover, Yang Yuanding still made a special trip to give the gift.

Trip - the etiquette has come home.

Mrs. Xu packed up early today, so she didn't waste any time taking Xiaosong and Xiaobai back to her parents' home.

Originally, Mrs. Xu wanted to take Zhang Sijiu with her, but both Zhang Sijiu and Mrs. Yang thought it was inappropriate to go, so they didn't follow.

Zhang Sijiu and Zhao Yin helped Yang make dinner at home, waiting for the family reunion in the evening to enjoy the moon.

This is not just the case for Zhang Sijiu's family, but also for other families. Those who have daughters, and those whose daughters are not far away from marriage, will start putting meat and fish on the table at noon, and have a lively meal. Then in the evening, the whole family will

, and have another meal.

So the ferry is very lively today. Not only that, the vendors are also booming in business, but they also close their stalls early - they also have to go home for the holidays!

In his last life, Zhang Sijiu experienced such a strong festive atmosphere when he was a child. Later, with the development of science and technology, life became more and more convenient and conditions became better and better. You can usually eat whatever you want, so celebrating the festival seems to be just

That's the same thing.

You may not even buy mooncakes specifically to eat them, or you may buy them just as gifts and not necessarily eat them.

Of course, I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but those mooncakes are really not as delicious as they were when I was a kid.

But now, feeling this strong festive atmosphere, Zhang Sijiu still wants to say: It's great.

This sense of ritual in life should still be retained. Only in this way will people be more full of expectations and love for life. How nice it would be to reunite with family members, enjoy the moon, and eat some delicious food that is not usually eaten so often.

!

Anyway, today, in addition to their own unique braised pork platter, Xu also prepared a lot of delicious food early.

I cut several types of meat: fat, lean, and chicken, duck, and fish. I'm just waiting to make a big table of sumptuous meals at night.

Zhang Sijiu saw that Yang had a bad look in his eyes, so he simply took the initiative to ask for help: "How about me and Zhao Yin do it?"

Yang thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, there are no outsiders anyway. You can practice more."

In Yang's opinion, girls should learn to do laundry and cooking from an early age, otherwise they will be laughed at to death when they get married?

The Li family's daughter-in-law lost weight due to starvation due to confinement, which became a joke in the village.

However, Zhang Sijiu is actually not very good at cooking, but she wants to eat stir-fried vegetables. And cooked vegetables.

Just thinking about it makes me drool.

In the past, she only felt tired of eating in the hospital cafeteria, but now she thinks about it...the food in the cafeteria is so delicious!

Young people don’t know how good canteens are, so they take out small barbecue every night. Only middle-aged people know how good canteens are, but it’s a pity that they can no longer eat there!

This kind of sadness made Zhang Sijiu melancholy.

And this melancholy can only be soothed by delicious food.

Zhang Sijiu rolled up his sleeves and decided to have a table of authentic canteen dishes!

She and Zhao Yin were busy all afternoon just processing the ingredients.

As a result, Mrs. Xu hurried back before she could take action.

It's still early now.

Yang was a little surprised: "Why are you back so early? You don't want to play for a while? It's rare to go back to your parents' home -"

Mrs. Xu happily put down her things, rolled up her sleeves and got to work: "My parents knew what was going on at home, so they urged me to leave early. There was a bag of pastry there, and it was my mother who asked me to bring it back.

You also have a leg of lamb, I’ll stew it and eat it later.”

This time, Mrs. Xu brought so many things back to her parents' home, which made her really embarrassed.

Not only did her sisters-in-law say that she was too spendy, even her mother secretly said that she was doing well in her parents' family just by looking at these things.

The purpose of marrying a man to a man, to dress and eat, and to bring something when you go back to your natal family is not to supplement anyone. In addition to honoring your parents, it is also to tell your natal family that you are living a good life.

The etiquette of celebrating the festival is the dignity of a married daughter.

So, this time, Mrs. Xu was really happy.

This joy made her so motivated that she had no place to vent her energy.

Therefore, Mrs. Xu took over the cooking matter, leaving no room for Zhang Sijiu to interfere.

But Zhang Sijiu still ate the braised pork ribs.

Mrs. Xu accepted Zhang Sijiu's improvement method without hesitation and tried frying in oil - mainly because she bought more pork fat this time and she really dared to be so extravagant.

Finally, braised pork belly, braised pork ribs with green beans, braised eggplant with minced meat, and braised fish were all arranged for Zhang Sijiu.

There was surprisingly not a single vegetarian dish in this meal.

Even the chickens killed at home were stewed in a large pot of lettuce and chicken soup.

In the end, Zhang Sijiu felt that the food was too greasy, so he went to take a photo of cucumber. This was when he finally had some fresh vegetables.

It was getting dark, and a large table of food was put on the table.

There is also another offering table set up in the courtyard, which is dedicated to the Moon Goddess.

Fruit snacks are served.

Melon, pomegranate, persimmon, a little grape and green orange.

The green oranges are not sweet enough yet, but the sweet and sour taste is very appetizing and tastes good.

The key is the smell released when the skin is peeled off, which is refreshing, refreshing and delicious.

The whole family had finished their work and sat in the main room, lighting oil lamps and eating.

Mrs. Xu felt a little regretful: "It's a pity that Xiao Shan is not here. This is the first time that he has celebrated the festival outside."

"Has Second Aunt left food for Second Uncle?" Zhang Sijiu asked.

Mrs. Xu laughed: "Keep it, keep it. These are for us to eat. Eat them with your belly open. No one should be afraid of not having enough."

In fact, the roasted pork ribs are served in a clay pot, the roasted pork belly is also filled into two large bowls, and the braised fish is even larger in a large bowl.

In addition, there are two plates of braised pork platter and two bowls of minced pork and eggplant.

They were a group of old, weak, women and children, and there was no way they could finish eating.

But looking at this table full of food still makes people feel very satisfied.

Mrs. Yang sighed with emotion: "It's rare that our family has such good food."

Mrs. Xu's face was filled with the confidence and joy brought by having money: "We can eat better in the future! Our lives will get better and better!"

Yang laughed and wiped the corners of her eyes: "Yes, yes, our lives will get better and better in the future."

Mrs. Xu was afraid that she would be sad, so she simply urged her: "Mom, please use your chopsticks. The little ones are really hungry."

As soon as Yang took a look, she found that Xiaosong, Xiaobai, and even Zhang Sijiu were holding up their chopsticks as if they were waiting to eat, and the sadness in her heart disappeared: "Okay, okay. Eat quickly, eat quickly. Once it's cool,
Chapter completed!
