Wei shui family

?

I grew up in Guanzhong, Shaanxi Province, and I was fed by corn grits and wheat flour along the Weihe River. The obvious changes of the four seasons, the temperate climate suitable for plant growth and the fertile Weihe Plain have created an ancient warehouse with fertile land and rich people.

The cultivators who have cultivated this hot land repeatedly are enthusiastically running on the bright road of building a new countryside and building a well-off life, taking advantage of the strong wind of reform in is like a spring gale, come up in the night. Farmers have caught up with the rapid development of the information age, their horizons have been broadened, and their thoughts have come alive. They have learned science and technology, and are trying to explore new ways to go to a well-off society. Some of them started poultry and livestock breeding at home, some set up vegetable greenhouses to grow anti-seasonal vegetables and sell them all over the country, some contracted land to build orchards, some set up shops to engage in wholesale, some engaged in leasing and transportation, some opened restaurants to integrate catering, entertainment and accommodation, and more construction experts set up construction teams to contribute to local urban and rural construction? The countryside has completely changed the face of poverty and backwardness, abandoned the bitter days of facing the loess and facing the sky, and is developing at an unprecedented alarming rate.

When we enter today's new countryside, we see orderly streets, orderly rows of small foreign buildings, clean and wide cement pavements, and flowery farmhouses. The streets in the center of the village are also prosperous, with shops everywhere, including daily necessities, daily necessities, clothing and fabrics, fruits and vegetables, entertainment and catering. The market is crowded and business is booming. People are interested in purchasing daily necessities, tasting various snacks with great interest, and enjoying the satisfaction and joy gained by their own labor happily.

In the village lane, some old ladies have returned to their old jobs and abandoned hand-woven fabrics for many years, and now they are thriving again in this affluent and idle day. They regard this clean and smooth cement pavement as a manual workshop, weaving colorful coarse cloth with various slender cotton threads, and then sewing it into sheets as a fashion dowry for their daughters. The coarse linen list is not only colorful, solid and durable, but also entrusted with the earnest teachings of her parents on her married daughter: first, let her daughter always remember the family precepts, and never forget the traditional virtues of diligence, simplicity, virtue and filial piety; Second, I hope my daughter can put this? Guanzhong is a must? The craft is passed down from generation to generation and carried forward. Some grandfathers are enjoying themselves in the shade of the door. They are either playing chess in a pile of two, or three people are playing cards in a pile, or four people are playing mahjong at a table. They all look happy and carefree. Children, led by adults, rushed out of the courtyard and came to the cultural and entertainment square in the center of the village, playing with their favorite toys. Some on the seesaw, some on the swing, some on the elliptical machine, some on the swing chair, and older children learn to play table tennis and basketball, and follow adults to learn chess and go? They spent a colorful and wonderful childhood with laughter. Sports-loving elderly people also spontaneously organized themselves. They practiced Tai Ji Chuan and aerobics in the corner of the square, started a self-help class by twisting the yangko, and held a gateball game, a badminton game and an aerobics competition at both ends of the day. The establishment of various cultural sites in rural areas and the popularization of fitness equipment have greatly stimulated farmers' hobbies, enriched farmers' spiritual life, and at the same time, showed us a vibrant and prosperous peach blossom garden-style life beauty.

Summer harvest and autumn sowing are the busiest seasons for farmers. When the wheat ripened, the endless fields turned into a golden ocean. Farmers drove their own agricultural vehicles to the fields, filled with wheat that had just been threshed by harvesters, and then happily transported home, scattered on the cement road in front of their homes to dry. The wheat of seven or eight mu of land in every household has been dried in less than three or four days, and the particles are returned to the warehouse. Gone are the days when old cows needed to plow slowly for a month. Instead, it was a fast and convenient rotary tiller, which turned the whole land upside down in just over ten minutes, soft and thick, leaving every inch. The seeder can spread seeds evenly in the soil with moderate depth, which is most beneficial to the development and growth of seeds. Corn seeds germinate, grow and bloom in the soil, and after three months, they grow a huge golden corn cob. During the growth of corn, farmers have to follow the growth of corn in the field management, weeding, fertilizing, ridging and watering, and all the work must be delayed and lazy. Hard sweat pours out the joy of harvest. Looking at the growing corn cob with full seeds, even if the farmers have paid too much hard work, it will be turned into a sweet memory at this time.

in a blink of an eye, three months have passed, and it's the second harvest season in a year? Autumn harvest. Farmers peeled the corn cob from the ground to expose its golden carcass, then tied them together with leaves, and then hung them on the wooden house (which was criss-crossed with shelves) that had been set up in advance. When Huang Chengcheng's corn cobs are covered with shelves, it becomes a veritable golden house in the farm yard.

peeled corn grains are dried and ground into corn grits. We call them big grits when they are ground into larger grains, and corn grits when they are ground into fine grains. Big nazi can be boiled into porridge, but it is stronger and sweeter than porridge. After the corn grits are boiled into porridge, put them in a bowl and put some small dishes on it, which becomes the most sticky, sweet and fragrant food. When I was young, I had almost three meals a day: corn grits in the morning, noodles (strips) in the morning, and cold and dry noodles and porridge for dinner. Now it's different. Fish, eggs, milk and vegetables are available in front of the door. It's up to you to pack steamed rice from jiaozi. Even so, I have long been used to eating dumplings (sticky pasta made of corn flour), and I always have a hard feeling about eating dumplings. I will often invite friends and relatives to my home every few days, and we will cook together, peel garlic, stir up the stir-up, stir-fry the side dishes, and then have a warm stir-up meal. Because of this, stirring up the group has become an important link for me to maintain my family and friendship. I also hope that my relatives, friends and neighbors can get along closely and harmoniously like stirring up the group.

The stir-fried dough just out of the pot is put in a bowl, like steamed pea flowers just out of the cage, thin and soft. Huang Chengcheng's is fragrant with corn, and then some oil and garlic soup are poured on it. It tastes soft, slippery, spicy and fragrant, and even if you eat it in your stomach, you will feel a warm current surging, giving people a refreshing and refreshing comfort and calm, which is considered hot. There is another way to eat it, which is called cold eating. The stirred dough that has just come out of the pot is dropped into a cold water basin through a colander with (many) holes, and the stirred dough is cooled and solidified into dough fish the size of peanuts. After scooping it into the bowl, pour it with oil and garlic soup, or mix it with cooked green vegetables. It looks bright in color and tastes tender, smooth and refreshing. This is a kind of fun and delicious dough fish that my mother was most willing to make when I was a child. Of course, it doesn't taste good to cool the dough and cut it into strips to eat. As the saying goes:? It's better to stir up the group. Seventy-two? If you want to eat the smooth and delicate stir-dough, you must stir it for 111 rounds before cooking, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure that you can eat the satisfactory stir-dough. After years of technological improvement, the stir-fried dough has become a famous flavor snack in Sanqin.

When autumn comes and winter comes, when people have drunk Laba porridge (boiled with millet), villagers begin to buy new year's goods to prepare for the Spring Festival. By the end of the year, farmers' production and labor have basically ended, and they have stopped working. Therefore, the twelfth lunar month has become the best time for rural people to recuperate, visit relatives and gather popularity, exchange and sum up their labor experience, and it is also their busiest and happiest day. First of all, led by the respected old people in the village, they will gather together to plan ahead, think about how to have a good year this year, hold the ancient temple fair in the first month, and discuss which troupe to invite, which famous performer to come to perform for the ancient society, who will be the president to take care of the overall situation, who will choose new people and horses to form the village's famous stilts and Ma Shehuo performances, and who will organize the training of gongs and drums teams and honor guards. After all the arrangements were made, the arduous rehearsal began. Throughout the twelfth lunar month, all the people, old and young, worked together and fully cooperated with Qi Xin to actively prepare for a good show and a lively ancient meeting. On the day of the first lunar month, it often attracts dozens of villages in Fiona Fang, and thousands of people come to watch it. It's really a sea of people and a lot of excitement.

The 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month is the beginning of the New Year. According to the traditional custom, people have to bake sesame cakes and make sacrifices with them on that day before they can invite the kitchen god. This day is also called offering sacrifices to the kitchen. These traditional customs have undoubtedly pinned people's good wishes for good weather and good harvests in the coming year. With the approach of New Year's Eve, housewives began to work on the cooker in an orderly way. A series of modern kitchenware, such as brand-new and shiny induction cookers, pressure cookers, electric cookers, electric baking pans and microwave ovens, have already moved into thousands of households. The peasant women have also bid farewell to the troubles of smoky cooking in the past, and they are busy cleanly and neatly: steaming buns, cook the meat, stewing soup and cooking? The delicious aroma of all kinds of delicacies immediately overflowed the houses, and the smoke from kitchen chimneys floated in the streets and lanes, accompanied by sporadic falling snowflakes and occasional bursts of firecrackers, so that the quiet village was immersed in the happiness of the year.

Wei shui Tang Tang, endless years of rapid change, endless feelings of hometown people who love their hometown?
