So the days passed day by day, and soon the day of Laba came.
As the saying goes, don’t be greedy, children. After Laba Festival, it will be the New Year.
Although the Wang family is a peasant family and relatively poor, it still needs to cook Laba porridge in this era.
The 8 ingredients of traditional Laba porridge are rice, millet, corn, barley, red dates, lotus seeds, peanuts and longan. Laba porridge, also known as "Seven Treasures and Five Flavors Porridge", "Buddha Porridge", "Everyone's Rice", etc., is a kind of porridge made from a variety of ingredients. "Drinking Laba porridge" is a custom during the Laba Festival. The traditional ingredients of Laba porridge include rice, millet, corn, barley, red dates, lotus seeds, peanuts, longan and various beans, such as red beans, mung beans, soybeans, black beans, kidney beans, etc. (Source: Baidu, my family doesn’t tolerate this)
Cooking Laba porridge is something that Wang Yiyi cannot participate in alone. And in order to make it easier to give away, each family usually cooks Laba porridge with different ingredients.
So while making Laba porridge, Wang Yiyi met her parents and brother. She even saw her cousin's family who caused her to break her head.
She didn't even raise her eyelids to the arrival of Wang's parents.
People always have their own selfish thoughts, and no one can guarantee that they are pure.
The world is not black and white, but a mixture of black and white. Whether the dead branches fuel the fire or the fire ignites the dead branches. There is never a clear dividing line between light and dark.
In fact, Wang Yiyi has always had a wait-and-see attitude towards her parents. If they can get along with each other, get along with them. If they can't, forget it. If she becomes terminally ill, for the sake of her body, she will also die for them.
After all, she is a modern soul, independent, free and uninhibited.
And she was already 17 when she wore it. I have long since lost my attachment to my parents. Even though this environment is very strange, so what, no place in this vast sea is her home, and no one on the road here knows her thoughts.
Late-flying migratory birds will be abandoned by their parents, just like her, just like they were abandoned by the world.
She doesn't even know if she can go back? If she can't go back, where can she go after she escapes and settles down?
Nowhere is her return home, but these are all her inner thoughts. By the time her thoughts are running wild, the Laba porridge is almost done.
In a daze, she smelled the fragrance of Laba porridge, and she no longer had those strange thoughts. After all, eating is the most important thing in the world. If you don’t eat one meal, you will feel hungry.
And in fact, she is not used to northern food. After all, most northerners can't accept Houttuynia cordata, but she loves it very much. She can also eat spicy food. If there is no chili at this time, she can only go there secretly. Take a taste of space.
Life is never perfect. When spring comes, go dig Houttuynia cordata. Although others wouldn't eat it, she could dig it up and store it. Houttuynia cordata was both a vegetable and a medicinal material, and it might be useful when she fled the famine.
The most important thing is to dry out some more dried mint now that you have time. Although there are mint candies and the like in the supermarket. Although it can be used, there is a shortage of things that can be used outside, so mint, dandelion, which can remove heat, and herbs such as honeysuckle are very needed.
The last step is to prepare for the escape. The first is that she has a lot of money now. Although she is not short of food, the modern high-tech processed food is very different from the current food. She needs to store a lot of food. She has water sources, and she has other things. You also need to stock up on things such as umbrellas, oilcloths, food, clothing, housing and transportation. It can be said that everything costs money.
