Mother Su was beside the stove, paying attention to the heat while putting the sugar into the pot. Hearing Su Yun's words, Mother Su's heart ached again.
On the first day of his son's return, he had been out killing pigs all day. He only had lunch at noon and did not idle for a moment.
After a tiring day, she still wanted to help her boil cantaloupes at night. Making cantaloupes was hard work, and it would take up to midnight. Mother Su naturally could not bear to do it.
At the thought of this, Mother Su's eyes revealed a trace of pity." Su Yun, you've been killing pigs for the whole day. That's hard work. You must be exhausted. Go and rest. Let your father and I do it…"
Su Yun said stubbornly,"Mom! You and Dad are already so old. It's not suitable for you to stay up late. Besides, boiling sugar melons is also strenuous work. I'm afraid that you and Dad won't be able to stand it if you cook in the middle of the night.”
"Mom! You should go and rest! I'm a young man, nothing happened to me!”
Seeing that her son was so sensible, Mother Su could not refuse. She could only say,"Good, good. Su Yun is really mature and sensible…"
As she spoke, Mother Su let Su Yun complete the next step of boiling the candies. She did not rest but watched from the side.
"I just entered the live broadcast room and saw Su Yun sitting by the stove. What is she doing? Are you stewing pork?"
" Aiya, it's boring not to kill pigs. Let's go, let's go…"
"F * ck, the bullet screen at the front is about birth, right? It's already f * cking night. How can we kill pigs in such a cold environment?!”
"No, what is this candy?! Is it food? Or is it for children to play with?"
"That's right! It has to be boiled in a big iron pot. It looks like there's quite a lot…"
"Come out and explain!!!”
"Are there no big names on the Internet these days?!”
More and more people were curious about what Su Yun and her mother had cooked in the middle of the night. The bullet screen in the live broadcast room flooded with comments.
The cameramen standing at the side were also very curious. As they filmed, they asked Su Yun in the name of the audience.
"Su Yun, the live broadcast room is flooded with people asking what you're doing. Also, what's this candied melon?”
Most of the audience in the live broadcast room grew up in the city, so they naturally did not know what sugar melon was. In addition, when Su Yun and her mother talked about sugar melon, they used the sound of their hometown's children. When sugar melon was said, it sounded like sugar officer. Therefore, everyone was curious about what it was.
Hearing the questions of the cameramen, Su Yun boiled the syrup in the pot while explaining to the camera and the cameramen. It was more like a science lecture than an explanation.
"I'm sure all the friends in the live broadcast room are children who grew up in the city. Naturally, they don't know what cantaloupes are. Actually, cantaloupes are a kind of sugar product made from hawthorn.”
"This is also a very ancient custom passed down from the village…"
As she spoke, Su Yun did not forget to add another handful of firewood to the stove."Everyone, look. Actually, to boil candies, you have to first boil the sugar into syrup, then cool it down and make it. The process of making candies is complicated, but the finished product is beautiful and practical…"
After hearing Su Yun's explanation, the netizens and the big brothers in the live broadcast room nodded their heads in understanding. However, everyone suddenly thought of another problem.
Isn't this candy just a candy? How is it a custom? Moreover, what did Su Yun's mother mean when she said that she would use it tomorrow? Since candies are made of sugar, aren't they edible?
At the thought of this, a curious photographer asked again,"Su Yun, what did Auntie mean when she said that she would use candies tomorrow morning? Isn't this candy for people to eat? It smells quite fragrant. Why can it still be used?”
Su Yun had already let go of this feeling. The customs of different places were different, so it was normal for him to not know. He continued to explain with a smile,"Maybe it's because the customs are different in every place. We have a children's song that is still circulating here.”
"Little child, don't be greedy. Laba porridge, drink a few days, li li la la 23; Twenty-three, sweet melon stick."
"Twenty-four, house cleaning; Twenty-six, go to buy meat; Twenty-seven, kill the rooster; Twenty-eight, hand out the noodles."
"On the twenty-ninth, steam steamed buns. The streets were filled with people on the first and second day of the Lunar New Year. Tomorrow was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, which was when the Kitchen God ascended to heaven.”
"On our side, it's a legend! The Kitchen God would go to heaven and report to the Jade Emperor about the family's merits and demerits over the past year.”
"We'll make the cantaloupes on the day of the twenty-third birthday to worship the Kitchen God.”
"The reason why we offered sacrifices to the Kitchen God is so that the Kitchen God can eat the candies and become sweet. He can then run to the Jade Emperor and say sweet things to us.”
After Su Yun's words, the few cameramen and the netizens in the live broadcast room were all fascinated. It turned out that the customs and cultures of different places were different, but they were also very different.
Su Yun spoke again,"There's a couplet that specifically describes the Kitchen God going to heaven... called... called, right!" Let's call it good news from the heavens and return to the palace to bring good luck."
After hearing Su Yun's long explanation, everyone finally understood. However, they became curious again. The bullet comments in the live broadcast room became heated again.
"Cheese has risen! He had thought that it would be boring if he did not kill the pig. He did not expect Su Yun to tell a good story. It felt so interesting. It was much more interesting than the cold city!”
"Brothers! Hurry up and call someone over! Just say that Su Yun fed us cheese again!”
"I say, isn't this bribing the Kitchen God to let him eat candies and open the back door for people?!”
"Nonsense, of course you have to bribe the Kitchen God. The Kitchen God lives in your kitchen every day. He knows what you do at home all day! If we don't bribe them…"
"F * ck! I just studied at home! The Kitchen God wouldn't report this, would he? Then wouldn't I be thrown all the way to the Heavenly Court?”
Just as the netizens in the live broadcast room were teasing him, the sugar in Su Yun's pot was also ready. After a while, the sugar turned into a very thick liquid with a dark color.
Su Yun picked up a piece of syrup with her chopsticks and stuck it on the mouth of the Kitchen God, who was hanging in the kitchen, under everyone's gaze.
When Su Yun made this move, the judge's cameraman and the netizens in the live broadcast room were all surprised.
What was going on? He had just said that he wanted to bribe the Kitchen God. Why did he put candy on the Kitchen God's mouth? Look at how dirty the Kitchen God's face is!
Wouldn't the Kitchen God be angry if he knew about this? Won't you expose everything about your family?
