1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Dad, Doudou wants to play house cooking."

Little Doudou said, and then went to the house to move the stool.

Chen Tiezhu was happy. His daughter was really good at playing.

House cooking is also a regional term. The official term is playing house.

Doudou had never played it before, but now it seems that she is very interested in cooking. She even took out the small kitchen utensils made by Qiao Shulin.

If I hadn't come back, her loyal customers would probably be An Dahan, Gou Shengzi, and Xiao Mi Hu Dan.

"Doudou, do you want Uncle Liu to help you?" When the little girl came out with two cabbage stalks, Liu Dayou asked curiously.

"Uncle Liu, Doudou knows how to do it."

The little girl said seriously, then put the cabbage stalks on the bench next to her and walked into the house.

"Brother Tiezhu, what is Doudou going to cook?" Liu Dayou asked curiously.

"I don't know either. You can't guess what's in her little head every day." Chen Tiezhu said helplessly.

At this time, the little girl came out of the house again, holding some small branches in her little hands.

"Doudou, what are you going to cook today?" Chen Tiezhu also asked.

"I don't know. I'll eat whatever I cook."

Doudou thought about it seriously and gave a more serious answer.

Chen Tiezhu was not in a hurry to go back to the house. He put his hands in his sleeves and watched the fun.

Little Doudou looked around and it seemed that everything was almost done, so he started to "cook" directly.

First, put the small branches under the camp stove built by Li Guanglin in the courtyard, and then took out the matches.

Chen Tiezhu was a little worried. If the eldest daughter played with fire, the whole family would have to be burned.

But the fact proved that his worry was unnecessary. Little Doudou had no such idea at all and didn't even open the matchbox.

The little hand made a stroke on the edge of the matchbox, and the "match" was lit, and then he pretended to throw it on the branch. By the way, he stuck out his little butt and blew it.

This was considered a job, and the "fire" was already lit.

But after she picked up her small pot, she encountered a very serious problem.

The stove was a bit big, and her small wok couldn't hold it at all.

The little guy was a little worried. She put the small pot down three times, and there was no way to fix it.

Liu Dayou was about to open his mouth to remind her, but Chen Tiezhu waved his hand.

Don't think that the little guy is just playing, this is also a time to test the little guy.

Sure enough, the little guy thought about it and came up with an idea.

You can't hold it if you put it straight, so let's put it diagonally.

After the small pot was put down steadily, she nodded with satisfaction.

"Ah..., Doudou is really smart." Liu Dayou sighed.

"Haha, let's see how she cooks today." Chen Tiezhu said happily.

At this time, Doudou also started to cook.

Pick up the cabbage stalks, tear them into small strips with her little hands, and put them in the pot. Then she learned how Chen Tiezhu used to cook, picked up the small spoon and stir-fried them.

"Woof..."

Goushengzi, who was standing by, was a little bored and barked.

"Goushengzi, don't be anxious, stew the fragrant cabbage." The little guy said seriously, put down the spoon, and touched Goushengzi's forehead.

When he returned to his own pot, Doudou's little brows frowned again.

This interruption made him forget what to do next.

After thinking for a while, he took the small spoon out of the pot again and went directly into the chicken rack. When she came out again, some chicken feed had been scooped into the spoon.

After putting it into the pot, continue to stir-fry.

"Tiezhu, why did Doudou put chicken feed in it?" Liu Dayou asked in confusion.

"This is seasoning, not chicken feed." Chen Tiezhu corrected him seriously.

Liu Dayou opened his mouth and showed a bitter smile. He never thought it was seasoning.

When it comes to cooking, Doudou is very serious.

Although this dish looks like stewed cabbage, Doudou thinks she should also weigh the spoon.

Grabbing the handle of the pot with both hands, Doudou exerted force with her little arms.

She successfully lifted the cabbage strips in the pot, and part of it flew out of the pot smoothly.

"Dad, what happened? Why did it run away?" Doudou turned his head and asked in confusion.

"Because Doudou hasn't mastered the strength of the spoon yet, Dad will teach you." Chen Tiezhu said happily, and hurried to his daughter's side.

I was itching to watch from the side, and finally I had the chance.

Grabbing Doudou's little hand, he gently exerted force,He lifted up the cabbage strips in the pot, and then dropped them steadily into the pot.

He was still a little addicted to playing, so he held Doudou's little hand and continued to lift them.

"Dad, Dad, Doudou lifts them."

Doudou spoke when he lifted them for the fifth time. While he was speaking, his little body arched in his arms.

Chen Tiezhu reluctantly let go of his daughter's hand, and looked at her eagerly, waiting for her next call for help.

However, he was disappointed again.

The first time he lifted them, it was because Doudou had never lifted them before. After being taught by him, he had mastered some of the essence.

After taking over the spoon again, although he lifted two cabbage strips this time, it didn't matter. When he lifted them again, it was steady.

"Wow, Doudou is so good? She has learned to use the spoon so quickly?" Liu Dayou also came over.

He originally wanted to squat and watch like Chen Tiezhu, but his belly was too big, so he finally sat on the ground.

"Uncle Liu, Doudou is really good."

Doudou, who was busy cooking, took a moment to say this.

After that, she picked up the small spoon and stir-fried the pot vigorously.

"Hehe, this is my eldest daughter, she is really good." Chen Tiezhu said proudly.

"Dad, it's ready to eat."

As soon as he finished speaking, Doudou grabbed the handle of the pot with both hands and brought the small pot to him.

Looking at the cabbage strips in the pot, as well as the cornmeal and chicken feed on the cabbage strips, Chen Tiezhu grinned.

While Chen Tiezhu was struggling, Liu Dayou was a little confused.

Because he seemed to see a relieved expression in the eyes of Gou Shengzi and the others just now. What the hell is going on?

"Doudou, you said that the stir-fried cabbage you made is so delicious, you should let the chickens, ducks and geese at home try it. Dad doesn't like to eat vegetables recently, he needs to eat some meat, the meat smells good." Chen Tiezhu said quickly.

Doudou tilted his head and thought about it, it seemed to be the case, it was indeed meaty.

Then he grabbed the handle of the pot and rushed to the chickens, ducks and geese at home.

Chen Tiezhu was a little worried.

It was really interesting to watch my daughter put up the dishes, but what if I had to eat this thing all the time?

"Pah"

"Pah"

"Pah pah"

...

Chen Tiezhu was still thinking about it, and a faint sound came from the direction of the mountain, which made him frown directly.

Maybe something happened. Those were real gunshots, not homemade cannons or firecrackers.
