I saw Su's mother at the stove, paying attention to the heat while putting sugar into the pot. When Su Yun said this, Su's mother felt distressed again.

My son, on the first day he came back, he spent the whole day killing pigs outside and had a meal at noon. He was really not idle at all the rest of the time.

After a day of exhaustion, I still wanted to help myself make some sugar melons at night. Making sugar melons was a strenuous job, and it had to be done until midnight, so Mother Su was naturally reluctant to part with it.

Thinking of this, Mother Su's eyes showed a trace of unbearability: "Su Yun, you have been killing pigs for a whole day. It is a strenuous job. You must be exhausted. Go and have a rest. Let me and your father come..."

I saw Su Yun say with a stubborn look: "Mom! You and Dad are so old that it is not suitable to stay up late, and boiling sugar melon is also strenuous work. I am afraid that you and Dad will not be able to bear it if you do it in the middle of the night."

"Mom! You'd better go and rest! I'm a big boy and nothing has happened!"

Seeing that her son was so sensible, Su's mother had no choice but to refuse. She could only say: "Okay, okay, Su Yun has really grown up and become sensible..."

After saying that, Su's mother asked Su Yun to complete the next step of boiling the sugar melon, but she did not go to rest, but watched from the side.

"As soon as I entered the live broadcast room, I saw Su Yun sitting at the stove. What is she doing? Is she stewing pork?"

"Oh, it's boring if I don't kill the pig. Let's go, let's go..."

"Damn it, the barrage in front of me is the night of birth, mother-in-law, how can I kill a pig when it's so cold?!"

"No, what is this sugar melon?! Is it for food?! Or is it for children to play with?!"

"Yes, yes! You still have to use a big iron pot to cook it. It looks like a lot..."

"Come out and explain!!!"

"Aren't there any big ones on the Internet now?!"

More and more people are curious about what the "tanggua" that Su Yun and her mother cooked up late at night is, and the comments in the live broadcast room are flooding the screen.

The photographers standing by were also very curious. While taking pictures, they asked about Su Yun in the name of the audience.

"Su Yun, the live broadcast room is full of people asking what are you doing and what is this sugar melon?"

Most of the viewers in the live broadcast room grew up in the city, so naturally they don’t know what Tanggua is. In addition, when Su Yun and her mother talked about Tanggua, they both used the Erhua accent of their hometown. When I think of it, it looks a bit like a sugarcane, so everyone is curious about what it is.

After hearing the questions from the photographers, I saw Su Yun boiling the maltose in the pot while explaining to the camera and the brothers. It was more of an explanation than a science popularization.

"I believe that all my friends in the live broadcast room are children who grew up in the city, so naturally they don't know what Tanggua is. In fact, Tanggua is a sugar product made from maltose."

"This is also a very ancient custom passed down from the village..."

As he spoke, Su Yun did not forget to add a handful of firewood to the stove: "Look, to boil sugar melon, you need to boil the sugar into syrup first, and then cool and make it. The making of sugar melon The process is complicated, but the finished product is beautiful and practical..."

After hearing Su Yun's explanation, netizens and several big brothers in the live broadcast room nodded in understanding, but everyone suddenly thought of another question.

Isn't this Tanggua just a candy bar? ! Why is it still a custom? ! Moreover, what did Su Yun’s mother mean when she said she would use it tomorrow? Since sugar melon is made of sugar, isn’t it meant to be eaten?

Thinking of this, a curious photographer asked again: "Su Yun, what did auntie mean when she said that we will use sugar melon tomorrow morning? Isn't this candy bar just for people to eat? It smells quite good It smells good, why can it still be used?”

Su Yun was relieved at this moment. The customs in different places are different, and it is normal to be unclear. He continued to explain with a smile: "Maybe it is because the customs are different in every place. We have a custom here that is still popular today. It’s a children’s song.”

"Children, don't be greedy. After Laba Festival, it's New Year. If you drink Laba porridge for a few days, it will be twenty-three. On the twenty-third, sugar melon is sticky."

"Twenty-four, clean the house; twenty-five, freeze tofu; twenty-six, buy meat; twenty-seven, slaughter the rooster; twenty-eight, make the dough."

"On the 29th, steam buns; on the 30th, stay up all night; walk around the streets on the first and second day of the lunar month. Tomorrow is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, which is when the Kitchen God ascends to heaven."

"It is said here that the Kitchen God will go to heaven and report to the Jade Emperor the merits and demerits of the family in the past year."

"As for us, when the 23rd day is approaching, we will make sugar melons to worship the Stove Lord."

"The purpose of worshiping the Tang Melon to the Stove Lord is to make the Stove Lord eat the sugar melon, his mouth will become sweet, and he will run to the Jade Emperor and say sweet things to us."

After hearing Su Yun's words, several photographers and netizens in the live broadcast room were fascinated. It turns out that the customs and cultures of different places are different, but they are also very different.

I saw Su Yun speak again: "There is a couplet that specifically describes the Stove Lord going to heaven... called... called, yes! It's called [God speaks good things, returns to the palace to bring good luck]"

After hearing Su Yun's long list of popular science, everyone finally understood, but they became curious again, and the barrage in the live broadcast room became heated again.

"It's cheese! I thought it would be boring if I didn't kill the pig, but I didn't expect that Su Yun's story telling was quite interesting. It felt so interesting, much more interesting than being cold in the city!"

"Brothers! Call someone over quickly! Just tell us that Su Yun is feeding us cheese again!"

"I said, isn't this just bribing the Kitchen God to let him eat the sugar melon and open the back door for people?!"

"Nonsense, of course I have to bribe the Stove Lord. The Stove Lord lives in your stove every day, and he knows what you do at home all day long! If you don't bribe me..."

"Damn it! I just studied at home! The Stove Lord wouldn't even report this to me! Then I would be so embarrassed that I would be thrown into heaven."

While the netizens in the live broadcast room were teasing, the sugar in Su Yun's pot was also boiling. After boiling for a while, the sugar turned into a very thick liquid with a dark color.

Su Yun picked up a piece of syrup with chopsticks and stuck it on the mouth of the Stove Lord hanging in the kitchen under the gaze of everyone.

When Su Yun made this move, the photographer of the trial and the netizens in the live broadcast room were all surprised.

What's going on? You just said you wanted to bribe the Stove Lord. Why did you put sugar on the Stove Lord's mouth? Look at the Kitchen God's face, how dirty it is!

If the Stove Lord knew about this, wouldn't he be angry? Aren't you going to reveal everything about your family?
