"Boss, what food do you have today?" asked a regular customer.

"Only barbecue." Jiang Yang replied.

"Okay, give me some." The man said while sitting on the chair.

Jiang Yang quickly baked it for him and brought it to him. The man asked, "Boss, aren't you going home for the New Year?"

"I want, how many days will there be."

"Hey, that's pretty good. I'm different. I can't go back this year."

"Why?"

"You need to work!"

Jiang Yang didn't say anything else and turned around and left silently.

There were no people in the store, and Jiangyang was bored. After dinner, the guests left one after another. Today, Jiangyang closed the door before 11 o'clock.

The next day, Jiang Yang went for a walk, bought some things he needed to bring back, and stuffed a large suitcase.

The day after tomorrow is the day when I go back to my hometown, but Jiangyang doesn’t feel any expectation.

Time flies very quickly, and it is almost a blink of an eye to return to my hometown.

Jiang Yang packed up a large bag of things and pulled a suitcase, just like most people around him who went home for the New Year.

Jiangyang took a high-speed train, and after getting off the high-speed train, you have to take a two-way bus to get home.

On the bus, Jiang Yang sat in his seat, playing with his cell phone. A young couple sitting next to him, and he was tempted by a few words from time to time.

The high-speed train was extremely fast. An hour and a half later, Jiang Yang arrived at the station. He pulled a lot of luggage and squeezed through the crowd and got off the high-speed train.

The bus station you transferred to was next to the high-speed rail station, looking about four or five hundred meters away. Jiang Yang quickly walked towards the bus station, bought the nearest ticket, and waited.

It is much more uncomfortable to ride a car than a high-speed train. Not only does it feel more shaking, but the most uncomfortable thing is the air in the car.

A car of people, all kinds of smells are mixed together to form a very unpleasant smell. Especially the smell of gasoline in it, it will make people who are prone to motion sickness feel nauseous and uncomfortable.

Fortunately, I didn't take it for too long. An hour later, the car stopped at another station. Jiang Yang dragged his luggage out of the car and then went to transfer to another car.

After bumpy all the way and the discomforts of riding for too long, Jiang Yang finally arrived at his hometown.

The house in my hometown is built into a two-story building, with a square shape, which is the most common house style in rural areas.

Jiang Yang's grandparents live here, living with his grandparents, and his uncle's family.

Grandpa Jiangyang has two sons and three daughters, and Jiangyang’s father is the youngest.

Uncle Jiangyang lives with his grandfather, and his aunt, second and third aunts are not far away from him, but Jiangyang's father is the farthest away.

"Grandpa and grandma, uncle, aunt, I'm back!" Jiang Yang shouted.

When my grandfather was sweeping the floor in front of the door heard it, he looked at Jiang Yang and said, "Xiaoyang, you are back..."

"Yeah, I'm back."

"You must be very tired along the way. Go in and rest for a while." Grandpa said, holding Jiang Yang's hand.

"Yeah, by the way, grandma, where is grandma?" Jiang Yang looked around and didn't see grandma.

"Your grandma went out to mow the grass." Grandpa Jiang Yang said.

Jiang Yang suddenly realized that his uncle's family had a fish pond, and the ones they fed were all common freshwater fish. They had never used feed in this fish pond, and they all depended on some forage. Therefore, the fish in this pond grew slowly, but the meat quality was better than others!

Grandpa Jiang Yang said that mowing grass was probably to feed fish.

"Where is uncle and the others?" Jiang Yang asked again.

"Your uncle has not come back yet when he is working outside, your aunt is still in the field. Your cousin Xiaoyu has gone out to find classmates, but he has not come back yet." Grandpa Jiang Yang said.

Jiang Yang nodded, put the things inside first, and then came out to chat with his grandfather.

As he was talking, Jiang Yang's cousin Jiang Xiaoyu drove back.

"Xiaoyang! When did you come back?" Jiang Xiaoyu got off the car and saw Jiang Yang, she asked in surprise.

"Sister Xiaoyu, I just came back." Jiang Yang said.

"You kid didn't say anything in advance when you came back, so I can go and pick you up!" Jiang Xiaoyu said.

"It's convenient to come back anyway, so I didn't think about asking me." Jiang Yang said with a smile.

"Forget it, you kid is still that way. Are you hungry? I have snacks there, so you can keep your stomach." Jiang Xiaoyu took out a large bag of snacks from the car and said.

"No, no, I ate some on the road, not hungry." Jiang Yang waved his hand and said.

"Whatever you want, sit for a while, I'll go cook." Jiang Xiaoyu shrugged and said.

"Sister Xiaoyu, I'll do it!" Jiang Yang said.

"Are you sure you can cook?"

"My dad and I have learned a few things, so it should be fine." Jiang Yang said with a smile.

"Oh! Yes, I almost forgot that my uncle is a chef. Okay, today's supper will be handed over to our chef!" Jiang Xiaoyu said with a smile.

Jiang Yang went to the kitchen. The ingredients in rural areas were much fresher than those in the city, although there were fewer varieties.

I opened the refrigerator and looked at the meat inside. I found a few fresh ribs, but the rest were no fresh meat.

A wooden stick was used to make a shelf on the stove in the kitchen, with pieces of cut bacon hanging on it.

This is the bacon from Uncle Jiangyang's house. After marinating the fresh pork with salt, it is hung on the stove. Every time it is burned, the heat formed by the flames surges up, which accelerates the dehydration of the pork. At the same time, some special smell of the fire sticks to the pork.

After a long period of smoke, the bacon will have a dark surface, a slightly hard texture, a dense meat, and a unique fragrance.

Jiang Xiaoyu walked in and looked at Jiang Yang in a daze with the bacon hanging on it, and smiled and said, "Do you want to eat bacon? The one on it is not good. It was marinated a few days ago, and the taste has not yet penetrated. But there are still a few pieces of old bacon, I'll get it for you in the refrigerator."

The bacon that Jiang Xiaoyu took had a layer of white frost on the surface. This was because it had been kept in the refrigerator for too long and the surface had become ice.

Jiang Yang took it and put it in cold water to thaw.

There are many ways to make bacon, the easiest one is to boil it in water. Take off the cooked bacon, change it into thin slices with a knife, and eat it like this, enjoy the flavor of the bacon itself.

In addition to boiling, you can also cut the bacon into thin slices or diced meat and stir-fry with green peppers or celery. The fried bacon has a strong taste and its flavor will be more vivid after being stimulated by high temperature.

Also, stew with bacon, such as peas, cabbage, etc. The taste of bacon enters the dish under the fusion of water, making the dish have the unique flavor of bacon.

In addition, there are many ways to make bacon.

Jiang Yang is preparing to use the bacon to stir-fry celery. The bacon cooked in this way is Jiang Yang’s favorite.

The fresh pork ribs Jiangyang planned to make braised pork rib soup, and there were some potatoes, which could also be cooked in it.

Jiang Xiaoyu was also helping, she helped Jiangyang cut vegetables and wash vegetables.

Jiang Yang tried the bacon, and it had almost thawed. Jiang Yang used a knife to cut the bacon into thin slices, which could transmit light. It is difficult to cut ordinary fresh pork to this extent, so it is easier to cut the bacon.

Slap the celery with a blade to make it easier to taste. Then cut the celery into small pieces and set aside to prepare.

When the bacon is cooked, add the bacon first. When the bacon is slightly cured, add celery and stir-fry. The bacon does not need to be too seasoned because the bacon tastes rich enough. Even if it is a simple stir-fry, it has a strong aroma.

After six o'clock in the evening, Uncle Jiangyang came back after finishing his work. Before that, Grandma Jiangyang also came back, pulled Jiangyang to wipe her tears and said something better. If Jiangyang hadn't wanted to cook, Grandma Jiangyang might not have let go.

Now Grandma Jiang Yang is sitting in front of the stove and is on fire.

Aunt Jiangyang also came back later. In winter, there was actually nothing busy in the fields. However, Aunt Jiangyang couldn't stay idle, and she didn't like playing cards, so she could only work in the fields for a while. Fortunately, there were still some vegetable fields in winter, otherwise Aunt Jiangyang might not be able to find work.

After Uncle Jiangyang and his family sat on the table, Jiangyang brought the dishes up.

"Is this Xiaoyang made it?" Uncle Jiangyang asked, looking at the table full of dishes.

"Yes, it's all made by Xiaoyang." Grandma Jiang Yang said.

Uncle Jiangyang picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said, "Yes! Xiaoyang, your skills are much better than your father."

Jiang Yang touched his nose, smiled and said nothing.

"Wow! Jiang Yang, how could you make such a delicious thing!" Jiang Xiaoyu shouted exaggeratedly.

Jiang Yang was helpless. His cousin was too exaggerated, right?

However, the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became lively with Jiang Xiaoyu's exaggerated expression, and Jiang Yang began to be frequently asked by several elders.
