This female barber is very skilled

Chapter 62

Tang Qing slept in Li's old house until noon, so Aunt Shanghai and Carpenter Wang rushed over to look for her.

"Are you cold? You have walked so far to come here?"

I don't know when it snowed, it was the kind of weather with light sleet and light snow.

Rain and snow have been around in recent years, this is not false at all.Before the Spring Festival in Yancheng, it always rains and snows continuously, and it looks like this nine out of ten years.

Tang Qing wanted to ride her "[-] big bars" to the store first, but the road was wet and slippery, and the bicycle slipped on it, so he had to drag it.

"Master Jiujin, do you know? How worried is Ala that Nong is missing?"

"Master Jiujin, after you disappeared, the pig killer almost went to call the police Xiaowang."

Aunt Shanghai and Carpenter Wang helped Tang Qing hold the bicycle from left to right, chatting while walking.

"I'm missing? What am I missing? Pig killer, why don't he sell his pork well? Why do you care about me? The emperor really doesn't worry about eunuchs."

Tang Qing was a little dumbfounded, she didn't expect that she would sleep until noon.

He was obviously not sleepy, so why did he fall asleep so deadly as soon as he lay down?

I must be snoring, Li Li must have heard me snoring.

Hey, how embarrassing that is!

My snoring is very good. My dead husband said that it is absolutely world-class, and ordinary men can't compare to me.

Hmph, maybe I don't snore at all when I sleep, it's because he deliberately disgusts me.

"Master Jiujin, Master Jiujin?"

"Ok?"

Tang Qing's thoughts were interrupted by Aunt Shanghai.

"How could Nong Xiangxiang be trapped in Li's old house last night?"

"No reason."

"Why not yet? If it wasn't for the pig butcher who got up early in the morning to kill pigs and saw that the people's barbershop was open, and you were empty, we came to look for you. If we didn't come to look for you, I guess you are still sleeping there .”

Carpenter Wang couldn't help but interrupt.

"Master Wang, the door of my store is not closed? How is it possible? Could it be that the butcher's vision is wrong?"

Tang Qing remembered that when he and Li Li left the People's Barbershop, they pulled down the shutter.

"Hmph, you are still stubborn, saying that the pig killer is blind, I see you, it's because you are blinded by your interests, and your mind is confused!"

"Hey, Master Wang, what am I so interested in? You don't want to give me an outline and a line."

"Master Jiujin, why did you stay in the Li family's old house last night?"

"I didn't live in Li's old house last night."

"Look, look, Aunt Shanghai and I found you in Li's old house, but you still deny it."

"What am I denying? It's almost dawn when I arrived at Li's old house, how can you say that I lived here last night?"

"Does it make any difference?"

"It must be different, can night and day be the same?"

"You mean you didn't sleep in Li's old house?"

"Of course, why should I sleep in the Li family's old house? Is my brain really sick?"

"Then what are you doing in Li's old house?"

"Isn't it snowing? I'll come over to see if the old house will be overwhelmed by snow."

"Make it up, make it up, with this light snow, are you worried that the old house will be overwhelmed by the snow? Do you think we are your Xiaoqiang?"

"Master Wang, Xiaoqiang is old and smart, and Master Jiujin Yiga's low-level fabrications can definitely be distinguished."

"Hey, Aunt Shanghai, do you mean that my IQ is not even that of my Xiaoqiang?"

"Master Jiujin, it's not that you have a problem with your IQ, but that you are a fan of the authorities. Listen to my advice, it's better not to come to this Li family's old house in the future, and it's best not to come."

"Master Jiujin, Allah agrees with Master Wang's opinion, it's better not to have a fight with Li Zapo."

"Thank you for worrying about me, I know it myself."

Tang Qing knew that Carpenter Wang and Aunt Shanghai were doing it for her own good, but why did she care so much about her relationship with Li Li?

"Master Jiujin, are you here?"

"Master Jiujin, are you alright?"

"Then Li Zapo didn't do anything to you, did she?"

When Tang Qing arrived at the People's Barbershop, neighbors and customers who were waiting to have their hair shaved in the shop gathered around to inquire.

"It's okay, it's okay, shave your head, who will arrive first?"

Tang Qing was thinking while he was busy, how did everyone know that I was with Li Li last night?Why do you keep asking me if I have anything to do?He also asked if Li Li did anything to me?
No, there must be a reason for this.Carpenter Wang and Aunt Shanghai had something to say just now, and now these neighbors are asking strange things. Could it be that someone is playing tricks behind them?

Someone tricked me?Why is he making trouble?What is his purpose?
Could this troublemaker be the same person who told Li Li the truth?

If it is the same person, then things are not so simple.

You wait, I will definitely drag you out!
No, let's talk about it after the New Year. It's a big Chinese New Year. It's better to stop first.

You come and I go, the people's barber shop is not empty these days, all of them leave after shaving their heads, and they are all busy buying new year's goods.

Seeing that Tang Qing was busy, Aunt Shanghai and Carpenter Wang also went home to do their work.

Twenty-five dozen frozen and twenty-six wrapped rice dumplings.

The New Year's atmosphere of Yancheng people starts to get stronger from the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, officially entering the New Year's time.

Twenty-five freezing means that every household will buy the best fish on this day, and the best cooks at home will cook the main dishes for the New Year.

Among them, there are three dishes that cannot be missed, and one is braised pork, that is, braised pork.One is braised oily tofu, which is stewed with pork belly.There is also a braised big fish, which is fried first, and then the fish and dried white beans are braised in soy sauce.

After these three dishes are cooked, they are served in a large earthen pot, and they will be frozen the next day. The soup is frozen like jelly for children, and it tastes extremely delicious.

People in Yancheng freeze and prepare dishes for the Chinese New Year on the 25th of the twelfth lunar month. The main reason is that there was no refrigerator before, and the vegetable market was closed during the Spring Festival, so they prepared in advance.

Twenty-six wrapping rice dumplings is better understood, that is, on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, every household in Shancheng must wrap rice dumplings.

This morning, the streets and alleys are filled with the fragrance of zong leaves. Housewives get up early in the morning to wash the zong leaves and steam the zong leaves, waiting for the men to come back and wrap the zongzi.It's not that women don't know how to wrap zongzi. The main reason is that men have strong hands and the wrapped zongzi is firm.

In the afternoon, the fragrance of zong leaves turns into the strong fragrance of zongzi. This strong fragrance is the product of the combination of zong leaves and glutinous rice, which makes your mouth water.

The children's greedy worms were completely hooked by the strong aroma, and when the adults in the family were not paying attention, they secretly reached out and grabbed a cooked zongzi, and by the way, grabbed a piece of frozen braised pork or fried tofu, and hid in the corner of the alley to gobble it up Try it first.

But at night, his father's big hands would symbolically spank his little butt a few times. Tang Qing knew it well, and his memory was still fresh, and he still laughed when he thought of it now.

Because what is the plan for this meal?Thirty nights of food are waiting behind.

Eating and clothing on the first day of the first lunar month for thirty nights is also what the people of Yancheng pay attention to.

Thirty nights is New Year's Eve, and every household has good food and wine on the table, and everyone can eat and drink freely.

Tang Qing remembered that grandma and mother Sansanye, who usually don't drink alcohol, would also drink a small cup, and would dip the wine on the chopsticks for Tang Qing to take a sip.

Wearing on the first day of the first lunar month is the expectation of children.

Throughout the year, there is only one day to wear new clothes.

Every time Tang Qing puts on new clothes on the first day of the first lunar month, she will go to the neighbors' houses one by one, and then run from East Street to West Street, in order to let everyone see what her new clothes for the New Year look like.

Alas, when people grow up, they don't look forward to the Chinese New Year so much.Living conditions have improved, but the taste of Chinese New Year has become weaker and weaker.

However, Tang Qing is still looking forward to this year's New Year's Eve, because she invited Li Li to her home for the New Year's Eve.

After finishing business on the morning of New Year's Eve, Tang Qing couldn't wait to come to Li's old house.

"Huh? Why is there a lock outside the gate?"

Tang Qing's hot heart suddenly cooled down.

"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong..."

Tang Qing knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no movement inside.

The outside is locked, which means that there must be no one inside.The gate of the old house was never locked before. Could it be that she wanted to tell me by locking it that she was no longer in Shancheng, so don't look for her again?

No, I have to find her, go to her big villa to find her.
