Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

After returning from the cylinder tile factory, Deng Shirong borrowed a bicycle and went to Changtian Village. Tomorrow was Songshanwei and Shuangwangwei at the same time. He planned to arrange for Zhang Kangmei and Deng Changmei to "get acquainted."

After the production team finished cutting the crops, they would arrange a fight to get acquainted. This had been agreed before, so Deng Shirong came over and mentioned it, and the Zhang family agreed immediately.

Deng Shirong explained some details of the acquaintance to Zhang Kangmei, and then ate two big taros under the warm greetings of the Zhang family before riding home while humming a ditty.

When returning the car, Deng Yunjun, the captain of the production team, smiled and said: "Uncle Jiu, you are helping people as matchmakers now, so you need to use the car frequently, otherwise this bike will be sold to you at a discount!"

Deng Shirong was moved in his heart and said: "I do need to use the car a lot during this period. If it is really possible, then I will buy it at a discount."

Deng Yunjun said confidently: "It might not be that easy for other people to buy it, but if Uncle Jiu buys it for you, it should be no problem. I'll say hello to the others first and talk to you later."

Deng Shirong nodded and said, "Okay, then you can inform me if there is any news."

Although he only had more than 110 yuan with a lot of money, he could make a fortune by arranging a meeting between Zhang Kangmei and Deng Changmei tomorrow. When Deng Changfu and Guan Yongying get married, he will usher in a real bumper harvest.

Therefore, Deng Shirong is not afraid of not being able to afford the semi-used bicycles sold at a discount by the production team.

…

In the afternoon, Deng Shirong made a homemade carp stew.

First, I grabbed two carp weighing about two kilograms from the water tank. These carp were caught by Deng Shirong and his son in the field when the production team was cutting crops. In addition to carp, they also caught a lot of crucian carp, eel, and pond carp, as well as popular fish. Later generations also picked up a lot of snails that no one would eat in this era.

In this day and age, since pesticides and chemical fertilizers are not used in the fields, there are so many fish in the fields that future generations are dumbfounded and cannot imagine how there could be so many fish in the fields.

Deng Shirong killed two carps, cleaned them, chopped them into pieces, marinated them with ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and rice wine for ten minutes, then heated the pot with oil.

In order to avoid sticking to the pot, add the oil in two steps. First add half of the oil and heat it, then add the other half and continue to heat it. Then pour the marinated fish into the pot, cover the pot and simmer over medium-low heat for three minutes. Simmer over the remaining fire for three minutes, and then you can take it out of the pot.

At this time, the carp is just cooked, and the main thing is that it is fresh and delicious.

The moment the fish came out of the pot, a strong fish aroma filled the air. The children, who originally had no expectations for eating fish, couldn't help but twitch their noses and keep inhaling the alluring fish aroma.

"Wash your hands and eat!"

As soon as Deng Shirong finished speaking, several of his children, whose stomachs were already growling with hunger, quickly ran out to wash their hands without saying a word.

It was already past six o'clock in the afternoon. Originally, the family did not eat so late, but now that Deng Yuntai went to work in the ceramic tile factory, the family ate late in order to wait for him to come back and have dinner together.

After the children tasted the stewed carp, each of them couldn't help but exclaimed:

"It's amazing, the fish turns out to be so delicious!"

"I have eaten fish several times before, but in my impression the fish was very fishy and not tasty at all. But the fish my dad made tastes really good."

"Dad, you are really amazing. You can make such an unpalatable fish taste better than pork."

"..."

Faced with the praise from his children, Deng Shirong smiled and said: "Actually, as long as you are willing to put oil in cooking fish, even if you don't know how to cook it, it won't be too unpalatable. But now everyone's living conditions are not good, and few are willing to put oil in it like me." Of course, if you use oil, you won’t be able to make delicious fish.”

Hearing this, Deng Yunzhen couldn't help but remind: "Dad, the oil at home is almost bottoming out!"

Deng Shirong cooks vegetables every day, so he naturally knows what he is doing. He nodded and said, "I know. Tomorrow I will arrange for Amei from the Yunjin family to go on a blind date in Shuangwangwei. Then I will buy some fat meat and bring it back for frying."

Deng Yuntai said in surprise: "Dad, are you really planning to change your career to a matchmaker?"

The other brothers and sisters were also surprised. When their father helped Changfu as a matchmaker, they didn't take it seriously. After all, they have a tradition here that says that a person should help someone be a matchmaker once in his life.

But my father had just matched a couple, and within a few days he was matchmaking for a second couple. This was no longer an occasional matchmaking, but a plan to change his career to full-time matchmaking.

"It's quite interesting to help people make connections when I have nothing to do. Moreover, it is a good thing and I really plan to keep doing it."

Having said this, Deng Shirong glanced at his children and said with a very serious expression: "The most important thing is that I want to accumulate experience and travel to more places, so that I can help you brothers and sisters find a satisfactory partner. "

In his previous life, because he credulously believed in the matchmaker's words, none of his children lived happily after marriage. In this life, he will never make the same mistake again. He must personally select every daughter-in-law, and no girl he likes will be allowed to enter his home. gate.

As for the son-in-law, the same is true.

The children looked at each other in shock when they heard this. They didn't expect their father to think so far ahead.

The younger ones didn't feel much about it, but the two older ones, Deng Yuntai and Deng Yunzhen, had reached marriageable age, so they had to take their father's words seriously!

Deng Yuntai bravely reminded: "Dad, now that the country advocates free love, you can't force us to marry someone we don't like!"

Deng Yunzhen also looked at her father nervously, fearing that one day her father would force her to marry a man she didn't like, and then she wouldn't know what to do.

For his eldest son who died young in his previous life, Deng Shirong was much more tolerant than he was for his other children. He smiled and explained: "You don't have to worry too much about this. I won't force you to marry someone you don't like. I will Try to find someone who satisfies you.”

"That's good!" Deng Yuntai and Deng Yunzhen both secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they are not forced to marry someone they don't like, everything will be easy.

"Okay, let's not say so much. Let's eat quickly. This fish must be eaten while it's hot to be delicious. However, you should pay attention to the fish bones when eating. Don't get stuck in your throat and you will suffer!"

Deng Yunsong stared at the fish sauce at the bottom of the bowl and asked expectantly: "Dad, this fish sauce is so fragrant. I want to get some of it and mix it with rice, okay?"

The youngest Deng Yunheng immediately echoed: "Dad, I also want this fish sauce bibimbap."

Deng Yunhua also shouted: "I want it too! I want it too!"

Deng Shirong smiled and said: "Okay, but don't catch too much at once. The fish won't taste as good without the fish juice. Once the fish meat is almost eaten, you will be fine even if you catch it all."

With their father's permission, the three little ones started scooping out the fish sauce and eating the rice with excitement. When the fish sauce was mixed with the rice, the bowl of rice became full of color, flavor and flavor, and the three little ones were full of praise for the meal.
