In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 25

After the fish balls in the pot float up.

Li Duoyu scooped one and put it into Li Haoran's bowl.

The impatient little chubby blew a few mouthfuls, opened his mouth and bit down, and finally breathed out from being scalded by the gravy in the fish balls.

But it still didn't stop, and then took a few breaths.

Bite off most of it again.

I'm afraid that someone will grab the same food as him.

Seeing Xiaopangdun's anxious look reminded Li Duoyu that when he was a child, he seemed to be a virtue. Every time A Niang made fish balls, he would wait by the stove with bowls and chopsticks.

That would be different than it is now.

Every time A Niang makes fish balls, she has to let the gods eat them first.

Only after one obeisance can this be given to them to eat.

After exhaling a few breaths, the little fat man stuffed the remaining fish balls into his mouth, and sucked up the soup that flowed out of the fish balls in the bowl.

"Uncle, your fish balls are so delicious, they are tender and bouncy, and they burst when you bite into them. They are much better than my mother's. Give me another one."

After hearing this, Chen Huiying was full of disgust: "Your mother lied to you, how could she do this, they are all cheap goods bought at the pier."

The little chubby smiled foolishly.

"Grandma, I know, I just want to save face for her."

Li Duoyu patted Li Haoran's head. The second sister-in-law is really bad, but she is really sensible and cute.

"One, it's not like your appetite, I'll give you a bowl, we'll have this for lunch."

"Great."

Little Fatty was so happy that he almost took off on the spot.

Li Duoyu first made a bowl of fish balls for Xiaopangdun, then another bowl for his mother, followed by Zhou Xiaoying, and finally himself.

Zhou Xiaoying took a few mouthfuls of fish balls, her eyes turned red, and she went back to the bedroom.

Li Duoyu was completely puzzled by Zhou Xiaoying's sudden reaction. After following in, she realized that Zhou Xiaoying was crying.

"What's the matter, aren't the fish balls delicious?"

Zhou Xiaoying shook her head desperately.

"No, it's just that it's so delicious. I'm afraid I'll eat too much and spit it out again."

Only then did Li Duoyu remember that during the time he was running away, there was no fire at home, and Zhou Xiaoying's food was very simple.

Three meals a day are the old three.

Dried sea oysters, dried salted fish and dried radish.

Li Duoyu hugged this woman distressedly: "In the future, I will definitely feed you well, dress you well, and raise you fat and white."

"I don't want to be fat. If I get fat, I will have to make clothes again in the future."

"That's clean."

However, before Zhou Xiaoying had time to be moved, she was touched by a careless hand, breaking all the atmosphere, and she didn't bother to resist this time.

"Hurry up"

Li Duoyu couldn't believe it, is it really going to be so exciting?

"Are you sure? Mother is still outside."

"We don't have that, what are you afraid of?"

Li Duoyu, who was still full of thoughts, came out of the bedroom, feeling even more melancholy. His current state was like a balloon filled with water, but he just didn't let it go.

孽 孽!
From now on, when my son comes out, if he dares to behave badly, he will be beaten hard on his ass.

Seeing Li Duoyu coming out, Chen Huiying hurriedly asked, "Xiaoying, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's just a sudden nausea, just take a rest."

"It's like this at this time. When I was pregnant with your eldest brother, I often couldn't eat, but after having a few more babies, I didn't feel anything at all."

"With a body as weak as Xiaoying, you have to raise her well, otherwise the next child will not be so easy to conceive."

Li Duoyu was a little speechless, the first child was not born yet, but the old lady was already thinking about the second child.

This time I made more than 100 fish balls in total.

Li Duoyu evened out [-] pieces and asked Xiaopangdun to send them to the third aunt's house.

Seeing Li Duoyu sending so many fish balls to Zhou Meiying's family, Chen Huiying was very sad.

"Why do you want to give them fish balls?"

Li Duoyu said truthfully:
"Today I met my third aunt in Qiuhai. She wanted to buy my sharks and eels to make fish balls. I also planned to make fish balls, so I agreed to give them some."

"This is rice fish and pork. Twenty of them can be sold for a lot of money."

"As for the relatives, the relationship will be good if they come and go. Last year, when the third aunt's family made a lot of money by selling goods, they also gave Dad a radio."

"If you don't tell me, I've already forgotten about it."

Thinking of this, Chen Huiying glanced at the house of the second child in the middle, and couldn't help but sigh, if only her daughter-in-law could suddenly change her temper and become as sensible as Duoyu.

Then the world will be peaceful.

Chen Huiying took a bowl of fish balls and came to Lao Li who was still lying on the rocking chair and listening to the radio.

"Stop cooking for lunch, and eat fish balls made by the fourth child."

"As far as the fish balls he made, how delicious can they be?"

Chen Huiying gave him a disgusted look, and then put the fish balls on the wooden table next to him: "This mouth is like a dead duck, the older it gets, the harder it gets."

After Chen Huiying left.

Lao Li got up from the rocking chair, looked at the big and fat fish balls in the bowl, picked up the chopsticks and inserted one into his mouth.

I found that it was really good, much better than the head teacher who held weddings and weddings in the village. After eating a bowl, he wanted to have another bowl.

I kind of regret what I just said.

He said to Li Haoran who was sitting on the stone slab: "My good grandson, go get your grandpa another bowl."

But Li Haoran shouted on the spot: "Grandma, Grandpa said he wants another bowl."

This made Lao Li lose face instantly.

After eating the fish balls, Zhou Xiaoying, who was really a little queasy, went to rest.

In the afternoon, Father and Mother will help others to hunt oysters. If they play all afternoon, the boss will give them two yuan as wages.

Li Duoyu was not idle either.

He is preparing for the evening seafood feast, and now he is making the chicken soup with boiled sea mussels.

This is a national banquet dish.

Many people can't afford what can be done,
It can also be very down to earth.

But in this era when seasonings are extremely lacking, and there are only shrimp oil, salt, monosodium glutamate and soy sauce, Li Duoyu can't be exquisite even if he wants to.

Almost there.

Li Duoyu cut the tender chicken into four pieces, blanched it with the pork, and rubbed a little salt on the chicken and pork.

Put it in an iron pot and stew it in water.

The soup must be boiled out first.

Three points of this dish depend on the deliciousness of the Xishi tongue, and seven points depend on the chicken soup. To make this dish well, you must be patient.

When making soup.

Li Duoyu sat on the stone bar in the courtyard, instinctively reached for his pocket, but found that it was empty.

Yes, there are no mobile phones in this day and age.

There is nowhere to read novels and short videos.

When he was bored, he could only look at the scenery, but when he looked at the busy pier not far away, his thoughts were a little distracted.

Li Haoran, who had eaten three bowls of fish balls, sat next to Li Duoyu, also looked into the distance, and suddenly said:
"Uncle, is Treasure Island across the sea really that good? I heard from the radio that the students there wear beautiful clothes and shoes, and they also have piano lessons."

Li Duoyu looked into the distance.

The place Li Haoran mentioned is actually very close to Dandan Island, only about 80 kilometers away.

It's also because it's too close.

Their province is the province of combat readiness. Before the "three links", all large-scale heavy industry and technology-related projects will not fall into their province.

This also indirectly led to the fact that for a certain period of time, the people of this province did not live very well, but fortunately everyone worked very hard.

And by 2022, the GDP of overseas provinces will have already lost to their provinces.

Li Duoyu said lightly:
"They're really good now."

"However, they are just stupid birds flying first. Let them fly for a while. When we take off, they may not even be able to afford eggs."
