Tingting and her friends held candies in their hands, Tingting walked to Zhao Long's side, pulled Zhao Long's clothes, and said, "Thank you brother!"

Afterwards, Aunt Li hurriedly said with candy in her mouth, "Folks, you can't just eat, help Zhao Long move the things back quickly."

Everyone moved things in a hurry, Zhao Long pulled Tingting over and said, "Tingting, what is that? I bought it for you."

Tingting curiously ran over to open it and saw that it was a big doll. Tingting said happily: "Brother, it's a big doll, so cute, I'm holding it now, thank you brother, it's so nice."

Afterwards, Zhao Long said: "Then Tingting, you are holding the big baby, and you still have to carry this thing." After finishing speaking, Zhao Long handed a large bag of chocolates to Tingting
Tingting had never eaten chocolate, only watched it on TV, so she asked, "Brother, what is this? It's so heavy."

"I'm telling you when I go back, hurry up, let's go home" After finishing speaking, he took Tingting and other friends to go home in a mighty way

Afterwards, after arriving home, Zhao Long distributed candy to each of the villagers and handed them cigarettes. The villagers ate and smoked and went home happily
At this time, the village chief and Zhao Long's uncle, aunt, aunt, aunt, etc., all the family had just returned from the field, and just entered the village, they heard everyone talking about the TV, and they didn't believe it at first. , I just entered the door and saw TV, I believed everything
Zhao Long's uncle, Zhao Chuang, hurriedly asked, "Zhao Long, this TV is not cheap, does it cost thousands of dollars? It looks so good."

While bringing candy to his aunt and uncle, Zhao Long hurriedly said, "Master, this TV is LCD, which is better than ordinary color TVs, and it costs thousands of dollars to buy."

The uncle was about to put the candy in his mouth and heard that the TV was so expensive, costing thousands of dollars. He was so surprised that he almost dropped the candy on the ground. The aunt and sister-in-law were also surprised.

"Thousands of dollars? Here... where did you get so much money? It's not so easy to earn thousands of dollars, baby, although we are poor, we can't do illegal things." The uncle said worriedly
"Grandpa, mother, aunt, village head, don't worry, I have worked hard to earn this, and I have something to do when I come back today, and the village head is also here, so let me just say it, I am coming back this time , I don’t plan to go out, I want to develop in my hometown, I just saw that people in the village want to get rich, but they just don’t have the ability and information technology is limited, so I have resigned, and I am going to drive everyone to develop, let our village Get rich." After Zhao Long finished speaking, he thought that everyone would be very happy, but he didn't expect that none of them made a sound, Zhao Long looked at them suspiciously
The mother said first: "Long, you resigned, you don't go out to work? You silly child, how nice it is outside, people want to go out, dare not go out, have no education, how can you say you don't do it? Woolen cloth?"

The uncle, the village head, and the aunt also frowned at Zhao Long, as if what their mother said was what they wanted to say.

Zhao Long hurriedly explained: "Mother, I know you are worried, but the extremely poor people in our village are almost out of control. The village chief also said that he hopes our village will become rich. The villagers have no education. Here The traffic is inconvenient and the information is poor, I hope I can help everyone.”

Afterwards, Zhao Long pulled his cousin Tingting over and said, "Tingting is so small, and there are many children like Tingting in the village. Don't you have the heart to let them be so poor when they grow up? We want to get out of the mountains It is very difficult, so we have to develop locally, or, how about it, now it is August, and there are still 5,6 or [-] months until the Chinese New Year, you give me these few months, if there is improvement in the village, I will It will continue to develop. If it is still like this, I believe everyone will still be like this. I am a college student, so what? I can’t contribute my knowledge and ability to my hometown. Even if I live outside in the future, I will be the one who goes out. Alone, we will continue to be poor, I remember when I was in college and couldn't find a job after graduation, it was the folks who helped me raise the travel expenses." Zhao Long said here with tears
The mother, the village head and others thought about it and nodded helplessly one after another. The village head said again: "You go to the old house to worship your father tomorrow, and tell your father about this matter. Then, you Just stay, mother Zhao Long, let the child stay, maybe, it can really help the development of the village, even if it’s nothing, it’s not too late to go out after the new year. So be it, I’m going back.” Village Chief finished talking and left
The mother and others also agreed, and the mother said to Zhao Long: "Long, go to worship your father tomorrow, so let's take a look at home."

Tingting quickly said: "Brother, it's good that you are at home, I will be by my side, and my brother will not be bored." Everyone laughed when they heard that
Afterwards, Zhao Long asked Tingting to take out the chocolates and distributed them to the family members. The family members had never eaten them before, and they all ate them very ugly. Seeing that Tingting ate the chocolates, they were delicious, and they called them delicious.
The next day, the sun left the horizon, glowing red, like a dazzling agate disk, moving slowly upwards.Around the red sun, the rays of the sun are completely dyed.The light and rolling clouds, like a girl in red, are dancing.In summer, people get up early.It's not like the hustle and bustle in the city. At this time in the city, there are horns and car exhaust smells everywhere.

Zhao Long stretched his waist, breathing in the fresh air of the countryside...
"It's been a long time since I've been so comfortable. The air in the countryside is good. The outside is fast-paced, but here is a comfortable slow pace." Zhao Long walked into the yard and said.

"Dragon! Wake up, let's see what delicious food Mom made for you today." Mother Qian Guilan said
Zhao Long hurried in to have a look, and couldn't help shouting: "Mom, this...isn't this the Dongpo meat in the food show we watched on TV last night?" Zhao Long asked in surprise, a little unbelievable

Zhao Long's mother said: "Yeah, but it's not as good-looking as it is on TV. I don't know what kind of casserole is used in the TV. I just cook it in our ground pot.",

Zhao Long suddenly remembered the method of making Dongpo meat that was shown on TV last night, and when he watched his mother make it again, it was really close to each other.

The practice of Dongpo pork:

Wash the pork belly, scrape off the skin with a knife, and soak in cold water for 30 minutes to remove the blood;
Take out and cut into 2cm square pieces for later use
Pour water into the pot and boil, put the pork belly pieces into the pot and cook for 5 minutes, then remove and set aside.

Take a casserole and put a bamboo grate on the bottom of the pot (you can also choose the utensils to use according to your own situation)
Spread scallions and ginger slices on the grate.Then put the pork belly skin side down into the casserole.

Pour rice wine, soy sauce, and rock sugar.Place shallot knots on top and bring to a boil.

Seal the mouth of the casserole with tin foil (the original method is to use peach blossom paper, which I don’t have, and the effect of tin foil is also good. If you don’t have tin foil, you can use kraft paper or the like. You can use local materials), cover the lid, and turn to low heat (the smallest heat), stew for 2 hours and turn off the heat.

Take out the stewed pork belly and put it into a small clay pot with the skin facing up
Pour in the remaining broth, cover the jar, and steam for 30 minutes before serving. (If you don't have a clay pot, you can use other containers with lids).

Zhao Long thought for a while and said: "Mom, why do you cook Dongpo meat early in the morning? Isn't it at noon or at night? You make yourself so tired just after waking up. Mom, when did you buy the meat? I How do you not know?"

"This meat was brought by your uncle. He said he asked someone to buy it in the town. You just came back and you need to eat more. I watched the Dongpo meat on TV yesterday. I thought it should be delicious, so I just eat it." I made it this morning, I want you to try it." Zhao Long's mother said

"Mom, it's nice to be home." Zhao Long said

"Hurry up, eat quickly. If you can't finish eating, save it for lunch, but you may not be able to eat it at night. It's so hot this day, and it will definitely not work at night. Also, go to worship your father after eating, you old man Father's portrait is in the old house, eat it quickly." Zhao Long's mother said.

"Mom, I'll go to town in two days to buy a refrigerator. By then, I won't be afraid that I won't be able to finish eating, and it's not expensive. It's so hot now." Zhao Long said while holding chopsticks
As soon as the mother was about to say something, Zhao Long rushed to say: "Mom, mom, sit here, eat quickly, it's so delicious." Seeing this, Qian Guilan swallowed her words and followed her son Eat Dongpo pork together
