The Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day just slipped away in such a hurry, and the time spent with parents was one second less.
Don’t make excuses for being busy with your career;
The days are changing, the mood is changing, and the only thing that remains unchanged is the deep and inevitable family affection. "Time is a magical and ruthless carving knife"...Time has turned his innocent and tender face into a vicissitudes and haggard face. Dye a blue silk into dazzling white hair. The reunion of the festive season seems to be still in front of us, engraving the course of our lives, leaving the traces of the years. When I was young, I was very naughty. Although I was a girl, boys didn't do anything mischievous. I remember that there is a jujube tree in front of the house, which is very tall and produces red jujubes that are as sweet as honey every year. When you haven't reacted yet, the adults have already wiped out the jujubes that they can reach with a long penny. It's our children's turn to climb the tree and pick them by themselves. The form of climbing trees is a bit similar to rock climbing, but it is individual effort. Although it is laborious, it feels so cool to swing on the tree after success [Wukong]! The key points of climbing a tree need to use foot strength. Firmly grasp the trunk with both hands, clamp the trunk with both legs, and then pull the body up with both hands. If there are branches, it is easier to climb, and you can use the branches to climb up. This jujube tree has fewer branches as it reaches the top. Because the girl's skills are not proficient, the whole climbing process feels as if it is not strong enough.
The problem arises when encountering a straight branch in the horizontal direction, which cannot be reached. At this time, Brother Si Mao from the neighbor's house couldn't straighten up his waist while laughing under the tree. Let me come down and see how he climbs. He uses the very bullish backward climbing style, which is the most powerful way of climbing trees, using all four limbs together, but it is the backward jumping method.
After climbing up, I sat on a branch that I hadn't reached. There were jujubes all around, and a group of children below begged him to throw the jujube down. But his arrogant refusal made the friends want to scare him. I said there was a hammer at home, and then I took the hammer out to scare him, and hit him with a hammer without throwing a date. Unexpectedly, he was so timid, I hadn't fallen from the tree so frightened. I know that the catastrophe was serious, his elbow and leg were broken, and he suffered a second-degree concussion. The only child in the family~ It's useless for mom to come to apologize. Not to mention medical expenses. It took him a long time to wake up, and his mother was finally relieved. Asked what he wanted to eat, he said that he most wanted to eat the spicy braised lotus root slices made by his mother. It was this spicy braised lotus root slice that resolved the dispute between the two. The tongue is too spicy; eyes are weeping, and the stomach sings; I can’t let it go! Spicy is like running a marathon, breathless, and the aftertaste is sweet and memorable~ Let me go through the tip of the tongue with me; experience the spicy braised lotus root slices that inspire the passion of the taste buds!

1. Choose crispy lotus root for brine; because its taste is slightly sweet and crisp; it can be eaten raw or cooked. Do not peel the washed lotus root. Use a metal brush or steel wire ball to gently brush off the surface of the skin.

3. Soak the sliced lotus root in water to soak out the starch on the surface. The lotus root wrapper is double-pronged to lock the crisp and refreshing taste of the lotus root

11. When the spices are fragrant, you can add in the [old brine]. Add clean water first, and then put in the [old brine].
For vegetables such as marinated lotus roots, you must use the [old brine] that has marinated the meat first; the old brine containing animal oil will taste soft and sweet when marinating the lotus root slices, so there is no need to make a pot of marinade for the marinated lotus roots. , That's not a good deal. The water used to make the stewed soup should be filled at one time, and no further additions should be made in the middle to avoid the thin taste of the stewed soup. The broth should be slightly salty to your accustomed saltiness; you can remove the chili section from the pot in the middle, and pound the red oil with a mortar to satisfy your spicy taste, then pour the pounded red oil into the pot and continue cooking . Cook until the lotus root is evenly purple-red, and the lotus root slices can be easily pierced through with chopsticks.
