Chapter 57 59: Food
The winter was cold and the weather was suddenly cold. It was already night after Lin Xiang packed up and went home.

When he pushed the door open, Lin Yan was cooking noodles.

"I'll rest here tomorrow." Lin Xiang leaned closer to the stove, holding the hot flames around his fingers, and it was burning warmly.

Lin Yan tilted his face when he heard the words, surprised: "Really?"

Lin Xiang smiled and said, "Of course it's true, how can you lie to me about this kind of thing."

After that, Lin Xiang thought for a while, and said: "Left, but the day after tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so let's cook something delicious tomorrow."

Lin Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Lin Xiang glanced at Lin Yan reproachfully, and then said, "Don't worry, go to the market with me tomorrow morning."

Lin Yan's face drooped again in an instant.

Pursing his lips and laughing, Lin Xiang said again: "Don't change your face when I tell you to take things."

Lin Yan looked at Lin Xiang helplessly, and said, "What about dinner, have you eaten?"

"I've eaten, I've eaten." Lin Xiang said, as if thinking of something, he fished out some things from his sleeves, and only looked at the things wrapped in paper. Lin Xiang unwrapped the paper Open, revealing a bright red color.

"Chili!" Lin Yan looked at it and exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Xiang smiled and nodded, and then said: "Put these over the stove, wash a small part of them with water, cut them into small pieces and put them in the crock pot for pickling pickles."

After listening, Lin Yan hurried to do it.

Lin Xiang walked to the row of crock pots next to the window at home, squatted down, and carefully opened them with his hands——

Lin Yan chopped the peppers early and handed them to Lin Xiang. Lin Xiang took a big spoon, and after putting all the bright red peppers in, he stirred them——

After a while, Lin Xiangfu covered the sackcloth again, completely covering it up.

Standing up, Lin Xiang looked at the earthen pot on the ground and said, "It's done, don't worry, it will taste hot and sour in a few days."

Lin Yan swallowed his saliva, and the taste was quickly outlined on the tip of his tongue. Thinking about it, he felt empty in his stomach.

After Lin Xiang explained some things about Lin Yanming's stature, he took out the cotton clothes that had been unpacked and washed a few days ago.

Because it has been blown in the cold wind outside for two days, it looks a little dry, but it doesn't have the soft feeling of being exposed to the sun.

After Lin Xiang packed up his clothes, Lin Yan went to bed after having eaten and cleaned up the dishes.

Early in the morning of the second day, there were constant knocks on the door of Lin Xiang's house——

"Dududu-"

"Sister?" Lin Yan rubbed his sleepy eyes, and looked at Lin Xiang half awake, a little puzzled.

Lin Xiang got up to get dressed, straightened his messy hair, tied it behind his head, and then got off the ground.

Opening the door, Lin Xiang saw the familiar figure, and immediately laughed: "Master, you are here—"

Lin Yan also stood up, put on his clothes, and quickly got down with curiosity.

"You go into the house and have something to eat." It's the twelfth lunar month, and the weather outside is very cold, so Lin Xiang can naturally see the other party's face pale.

"No no no."

"Sister, who is it?"

Lin Xiang looked at his younger brother with a smile: "It's the uncle who went to the market with us today——"

The room is warm and warm. In the past, when the uncle went to the market with Lin Xiang and others, it was inevitable to wake up early in the morning. Lin Xiang would always prepare a bowl of hot tea or noodle soup.

After several excuses, the old man still entered the house.

After Lin Xiang simply washed up here, he went to make breakfast.

The old man looked a little at a loss when he entered the room, neither standing nor sitting.

Lin Yan pulled a chair in front of him: "You sit—" Then he ran to the side of the stove to help pour a bowl of hot water for the old man, then turned around and went to Lin Xiang to heat the food.

The meals at home are made of simple ingredients, not as expensive as those in restaurants.

Despite this, the beans in honey sauce, mixed rice porridge with lotus root slices and a small amount of sugar, the hot garlic eggplant, and the green cabbage with sour vinegar add a strong sour and salty taste after being out of the pan. Er, the whole room, which is not considered big, was instantly exaggerated, and it immediately aroused people's appetite.

Kimchi and Lin Xiang deliberately took a few more slices, cut them into shreds, added sesame oil, mixed again and again, the shiny color was wrapped on the outside, as if wrapped in a layer of sugar, glowing bright and attractive
After reheating the unfinished noodles last night, Lin Xiang served the meals one by one on the slightly dilapidated wooden table.

The old man's eyes were straight at the moment.

Lin Xiang helped serve three bowls of rice porridge, "Bada" put it in front of the old man, and said with a smile: "Master, eat—"

"Eat something warm in the morning to warm your body." It is not easy for the elderly to come out to help them deliver vegetables when the first day of the new year is approaching, and the family must be poor.

The life and life of the two siblings are gradually improving, but they don't need to be stingy.

Stretching out the spoon, the old man stirred the light yellow sticky rice porridge, and the fragrance of cooked rice spread into every corner of his body along with the heat.

The mellow chestnut rice is chewy and elastic, and the faint sweetness grows on the tip of the tongue-the aroma of the rice oil boiled out of the soup makes people tremble.

Take a big sip, accompanied by the hot rice porridge and the refreshing sour and crunchy kimchi, "creak creak" accompanied by the sound of chewing, penetrates into the lungs and warms the whole body.

Lin Xianglinyan was snoring, and soon he was almost full after eating two bowls, and then looked at the old man——

"Can this bowl be taken away...?" The old man's words were a little vague, and the expression on his face was quite unnatural, as if it was difficult to speak.

Lin Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then said: "Of course it is possible."

Lin Xiang didn't say anything else, but just told Lin Yan to go to the stove to get another big bowl with a thick lid.

Stirring twice in the steaming pot with a spoon, Lin Xiang filled out a big bowl, steaming hot——

Cut a few slices of kimchi, as thick as a finger, added some sesame oil, and after stirring, put some honeydew beans in the porridge.

"Old man, take these away—" Lin Xiang smiled and handed the warm things to the old man.

The old man's face flushed immediately when he heard the words, and he looked very embarrassed: "Girl..."

"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. This little food is nothing to our siblings. Now it's almost the Chinese New Year, and the vendors everywhere have gone home. If you have something to do at home, you can still come. Both of us feel bad."

It's just a little food, the old man loves the food, and thinking of the children in the family, Lin Xiang doesn't want to be stingy.

After the three of them had breakfast, they chatted and laughed from time to time and left the house.

Lin Xiang wanted to buy more food for storage. Needless to say, in modern times, there is no need to worry about high technology and the price of vegetables and food. In this season, the price of food is extremely expensive.
