Chapter 213 Braised Pork
Chapter 213 Braised Pork
They also don't consider whether the person they love and the love they insist on are worth their efforts.
They just see it as a rebellion against parental authority and a pursuit of freedom and spiritual liberation.
The marriage market in Xiping Town suddenly fell into chaos.
There are girls from wealthy families who are madly trying to marry a gangster who has accomplished nothing, and there are also gentle, elegant, mature and steady men who suddenly abandon their wives and find a woman who is inferior to his original wife in every way.
They call it free love.
Yu Qingtang didn't know how things had developed to this point.
The little fox fairy and Lin Youwei would be shocked if they knew what happened after their death.
“It’s also a herd mentality.”
At this moment, Jin Guagua was as calm as a scholar.
“When one voice overwhelms all others in the crowd, some people with weak wills will subconsciously follow the ideas of the person with the loudest voice.”
"They think this is the awakening of their own spirit, but they don't know that their spirit is actually still being controlled by another person's spirit."
“When the loudest voice is slowly silenced by time, those people will regain their senses and regret what they are doing now, and then their already established lives will be messed up.”
Yu Qingtang propped up his chin and talked to Jin Guagua in a dull voice: "According to what you said, how many people have their own independent thoughts?"
"The formation of our three views comes from the influence of the people around us and the education we received since childhood, but these are all derived from other people's thoughts. It seems that all of us are actually being controlled by the minds of others."
Jin Guagua: "It can also be said that education is a kind of subtle spiritual influence."
Yu Qingtang suddenly felt unhappy.
Jin Guagua noticed his emotions and continued, "But some people can break free from these influences and develop their own ideas."
"There have been many such people since ancient times. They have broken away from the mainstream thinking in their environment and are known as pioneers of thought."
Of course Yu Qingtang knew what it meant, but she was still unhappy.
What? Can't ordinary people have their own thoughts?
Why do we say that ordinary people’s ordinary thoughts just follow the crowd?
She said to Jin Guagua angrily: "Then go find your ideological pioneer. I am just an ordinary person and not worthy of your great system."
Jinguagua: “???”
Isn't what it said later meant to comfort the host?
Why does the host seem even more unhappy?
"Come to the wedding tomorrow!"
"Definitely coming."
"Uncle Cheng, your little grandson is coming to my house tonight to roll around in bed. I'll give him a big red envelope."
"That's great. I'll take him there after dinner."
"What are you eating for dinner? Come to my house, it's all delicious food."
"That won't work. The main meal hasn't started yet."
"..."
The captain had a beaming smile on his face and people were congratulating him along the way.
"congratulations!"
"Congratulations, remember to come to my house for the wedding banquet."
Yu Qingtang also met him on the way back.
She turned around and looked at the captain, whose back was filled with joy.
"It's not like he's marrying off a daughter, it's more like his son is marrying off a daughter-in-law."
"His future son-in-law has no one in his family, so marrying this girl is half the price, almost the same as marrying a wife."
Yu Qingxu has spent more time in the team than Yu Qingtang and knows the situation in the team better.
"His future son-in-law must be the Li Hongbo I met in the hospital last time."
Yu Qingtang still remembered him because he was almost trapped by a young nurse in the town hospital last time.
Later, there was a riot above, which involved the hospital. It was discovered that the young nurse was actually a spy. This left a deep impression on her.
The person who was with Yu Qingtang at that time was Cheng Wuyang, so Yu Qingxu had only heard about it from the two of them.
Yu Qingxu said uncertainly: "It seems to be the last name Li."
"Are we going to a wedding tomorrow?"
"The captain just invited us, so we have to go."
Yu Qingtang has been here for several banquets and has always gotten something great every time. She is also looking forward to tomorrow's wedding.
Yu Qingxu: "...Then we should give gifts, what should we give?"
"When getting married, people usually give half a basket of grain or a piece of cloth as a gift, and if they are close, they will give a quilt."
Yu Qingtang said: "We can just give a piece of red cloth."
"It's up to you to decide."
Yu Qingxu didn't care.
If there wasn't a wedding in the captain's family, he wouldn't even think of attending the wedding.
When the captain's family got married, almost everyone in the brigade got involved.
Before seven in the morning, the flat ground in front of the captain's house was filled with tables and chairs, and many children were running around shouting and screaming.
People were busy preparing the banquet, and women with good cooking skills were called to help in the kitchen.
The little girls would carry small buckets to the river to wash, and after washing, they would wait in front of the steamer for the steamed rice.
Of course, the rice nowadays is not just white rice, but corn rice mixed with corn flour.
The food was served at 8 o'clock and every table was packed with people.
Yu Qingtang and other educated youth all sat at one table.
A total of 24 dishes were served. Although there were few meat dishes, there were pork, beef, mutton, chicken, duck, goose and eggs. The dishes were placed on a chess board and served one by one.
When the last dish was put down, everyone picked up their chopsticks and moved towards the meat dishes.
Yu Qingtang's first target was the braised pork that was fried dark red. After just one bite, she knew that the color of the meat was not obtained by cooking with sugar, but by cooking with soy sauce.
"Hmm~ It smells like my childhood."
Yu Qingxu also picked up the braised pork with his first chopsticks. After hearing what Yu Qingtang said, he even suspected that his sister's sense of taste had been damaged.
Yu Qingxu picked up the orange juice at hand and drank it in one gulp. The salty taste in his mouth had not yet been completely suppressed.
“Was the braised pork we ate when we were kids so salty?”
Yu Qingtang glanced at him indifferently.
"I'm talking about before you were born."
"You are only two years older than me. Before I was born, you couldn't eat braised pork."
Yu Qingtang: "...Anyway, this is the taste of braised pork in my memory."
"Their braised pork should be fried with soy sauce."
When two people were arguing about whose memory of the taste of braised pork was correct, a gentle female voice interrupted them.
There was also a half-eaten piece of braised pork in Shen Meiyu's bowl. She frowned and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Authentic braised pork should be cooked with rock sugar for color. Cooking with soy sauce not only doesn't taste right, but is also too salty."
Seeing her look of disgust, the people at the table who had picked up the braised pork didn't know whether they should continue eating.
