Chapter 959 The Scent of Popcorn

"Grandpa, grandma, nanna came to see you, grandpa, granny, do you think about nannan? At home, nannan misses grandpa and grandma."

Zhao Chaogang had just parked the car at the bridgehead and was about to call his parents to get in the car, but the girl sitting in the back seat opened the door and got out of the car. When she got out of the car, she threw herself into the arms of Zhao Qiang and his wife, and began to yell Jiao Lai, she and Zhao Qiang and his wife are extremely affectionate.

Seeing this, Zhao Chaogang and Li Liping also got out of the car. Under the big chestnut tree beside the bridge, Zhao Chaogang's little grandfather was enjoying the shade there. The folks in Zhaojia Village who were enjoying the cool below offered cigarettes, and then took their daughter, whose face was covered with ice cream, and Zhao Qiang and his wife into the car, and drove towards the house.

"Ah, it's still comfortable at home!" As soon as he entered the house, Zhao Chaogang lay down directly on the bamboo chair, not wanting to move. This bamboo chair was made by Zhao Chaogang's father Zhao Qiang when he was six It was done, although this bamboo chair looks very old, but this bamboo chair is still not broken, which shows that Zhao Qiang's craftsmanship is good.

This bamboo chair is full of memories of Zhao Chaogang's childhood. Zhao Chaogang clearly remembers that he likes to compete with his parents for bamboo chairs in summer, especially when he enjoys the cool at night, he absolutely dominates the bamboo chair. Sometimes Zhao Chaogang would sleep on the bamboo chair until he woke up the next day. (In the countryside, in summer, people often enjoy the shade in their pavilions, and even spend the night in the pavilions.)
"Dad, Dad, my daughter is going to sleep on the bamboo chair, Dad is getting up!"

As soon as she saw the bamboo chair, Nannan ran to Zhao Chaogang's side.He tried very hard to pull Zhao Chaogang up. Obviously, Nannan had also taken a fancy to the bamboo chair, so Zhao Chaogang had no choice but to stand up and give the bamboo chair to Nannan.

Seeing her hands and feet creaking quickly, she climbed onto the bamboo chair, and lay down with a face of comfort, Zhao Chaogang was speechless. The current girl is definitely a replica of herself when she was a child.

Just when Zhao Chaogang was thinking about how to trick his daughter into giving him the bamboo chair, a very familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from not far away.

It was familiar because Zhao Chaogang clearly remembered the sound made by popcorn when he was a child, and it was unfamiliar because Zhao Chaogang hadn't heard this familiar sound for fourteen or five years.

as a child.As long as there is the sound of popcorn in the village, Zhao Chaogang will rush to the popcorn with the corn and some firewood given by his mother. Every time, his mother will yell behind him to make him be careful, be careful of these words .

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar sound of popcorn now, it was as if my mother's exhortations came from my ears.I really miss it!

"Well, Dad. It smells so good. It's the smell of popcorn. Dad, my daughter wants to eat popcorn." Soon, there was a very strong smell of popcorn in Zhao Chaogang's house. This is the smell of popcorn in the village. The scent from the rice flower.

Don't doubt whether the fragrance of popcorn can spread so far, as long as it is born in the countryside.There are also popcorn machine owners in the village, and they definitely know that the smell of popcorn can actually travel far.

The popcorn machine in Xingzhe's hometown is at the east end of the village, but as long as the popcorn is started, the scent can spread to the west of the village.The distance between the two sides is more than one kilometer.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that there are no tall buildings in the village. Without tall buildings, the fragrance will not be blocked, and it will easily spread to every corner of the village.

The distance between Xingzhe’s house and the popcorn machine is nearly 800 meters. However, as long as the popcorn starts in the village, Xingzhe doesn’t need to be reminded. He will consciously bring corn, money, and firewood to pop it. Rice crackers, because of the sound and smell of popcorn.

"Nannie wants to eat popcorn?" Zhao Chaogang also missed the popcorn when he was a child, so he was going to relive the popcorn when he was a child, and by the way, let her also enjoy the happiness of her childhood.

"Well, um, my daughter wants to eat popcorn, Dad, the popcorn is delicious, my daughter likes it the most." Speaking of this, she even put her middle finger into her mouth, making her greedy.

"Okay, Daddy's going to take Daughter popping popcorn right now. Come on Daughter, pop popcorn with Daddy. We're going to get corn and firewood now, with these two things Daughter can have popcorn soon .”

"Oh, popcorn, my daughter wants to eat popcorn, Dad, let's go find corn and firewood, my daughter wants to eat a lot of popcorn, and I have to eat a lot of popcorn for my parents, grandparents, Dad, let's go quickly. "

Without Zhao Chaogang's urging at all, Nannan directly took Zhao Chaogang's hand and walked towards the kitchen. Obviously, Nannan also knew that the corn and firewood were only found in the kitchen.

"Mom, where is the corn in our family? Why isn't it in the old place?"

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Zhao Chaogang began to look for corn, but Zhao Chaogang did not find any corn at the bottom of the cupboard in the old place, so Zhao Chaogang began to ask about Liu Meiqing.

"Oh, corn, it's in the snakeskin bag next to the rice tank in the kitchen. Chao Gang, why are you looking for corn?" Liu Meiqing walked into the kitchen while talking.

"Hehe, isn't popcorn being popped in the village? I took my daughter to get some popcorn. I haven't eaten popcorn in the village for a long time, and I really miss it now."

Zhao Chaogang answered while filling the corn.

"You, at such an age, you are still as greedy as a child. No daughter is as greedy as you. You are now a father, and you have to look like a father."

Although Liu Meiqing was talking about Zhao Chaogang in his words, he started to prepare firewood for Zhao Chaogang's popcorn. Liu Meiqing's love for Zhao Chaogang was obvious.

"Hey, with my mother around, I will always be my mother's child."

"You...!" The son's answer warmed Liu Meiqing's heart, yes, no matter how old her son is, in her eyes she will always be the little one she was when she was a child.

"Oh, let's pop popcorn, let's pop popcorn. Mom, Dad and I go outside to pop popcorn, when the time comes, I will bring back a lot of popcorn for my parents and grandparents to eat, I'll give you a lot of popcorn, so many." Nannan opened her hands and pulled them towards her side to show the meaning of the large number.

"Well, Nannan is really a good daughter of mother."

Li Liping was very happy and praised her daughter: "Chao Gang, you go pop the popcorn, as long as you have corn, what are you doing with firewood?" Li Liping is from the city, so she doesn't know how to make popcorn in the countryside of.

"Pingping, the method of popcorn in the countryside is completely different from that in the city. The popcorn machine is used to make popcorn in the city, but in the countryside, the oldest popcorn machine is still used to make popcorn. Popcorn.

For example, those popcorn machines in the city need electricity when popcorn is being popped. This is not cost-effective for rural areas, because firewood can be seen everywhere in the countryside, and it is too wasteful to use electricity to popcorn.How about it, Pingping, are you interested in taking a look at that old-fashioned popcorn machine in our village? It's a very small thing. "

"Forget it, you should go with your daughter. It will be ten o'clock soon. I have to help my mother cook. At noon, there are quite a lot of guests in the house. However, Chao Gang, you will make some popcorn later." After the video is back, I can also see what the old-fashioned popcorn looks like. To be honest, I am really curious about how the old-fashioned popcorn machine makes popcorn. When the time comes, I can show Jingjing and let her Be envious."

After thinking about it, Li Liping rejected Zhao Chaogang's proposal to watch popcorn together. Although it was a good opportunity to get to know Chaogang's happy memories when he was a child, there were so many guests at home, and his mother would definitely not be able to do it alone. For a daughter-in-law, you must be virtuous.

"Okay, I'll take some videos and come back, Mom, Pingping, let's go."

The place where Zhaojia Village makes popcorn has always been fixed. It is in a gazebo at the west corner of the village office in Zhaojia Village, more than a kilometer away from Zhao Chaogang’s house. Therefore, it took Zhao Chaogang a full 10 minutes to bring Nannan came here.

As soon as he came to the west corner of the village office, Zhao Chaogang found that there were already more than 20 people queuing up here. Most of these people were small radish heads, and there were only four adults. Zhao Chaogang knew them all at a glance.

Two of them were my playmates when I was young. We still played together and went to school together until junior high school. However, as I got older, I was admitted to a key middle school again. Opportunities will become less and less, and now it's a little rusty.

"'Madman', Qiangzi, you all come here to pop popcorn. I believe you were also forced to pop popcorn by your ancestors. I was also forced by my girl to pop popcorn here."

In order to avoid the embarrassment of Zhao Feng, Zhao Liqiang and the others, Zhao Chaogang stepped forward to say hello directly, and his attitude was very gentle, no different from when they were together when they were young.

"You boy, if you call me 'lunatic' again, I will turn my face. You gave me this nickname. Now people in the village and some people I know call me like this. Really, Chao Gang, You have to compensate me for the loss in my heart."

Zhao Feng opened his mouth to complain about Zhao Chaogang, complaining that Zhao Chaogang gave him such a nickname, but it was also because of Zhao Feng's complaint that the barrier between Zhao Chaogang and them finally began to slowly disappear. . )
