"Grandma, give, this is Nannan's favorite ice cream, but it's delicious, Nannan's father doesn't give it to him, so he gives it to his grandmother, because grandma loves Nannan the most." "Nan Nan is very good at pleasing grandma, and as soon as she came up, she used a snack offensive.

"Haha...... , good, good, Nan Nan is really Grandma's intimate padded jacket, and Grandma is really not in vain. Well...... It's delicious, the ice cream is so delicious!"

As a seventy-three-year-old man, don't you think about the children, grandchildren, and granddaughters under your knees, this kind of life is the most satisfying life for the elderly.

"Grandma, let's be lively today, how does the Yue Opera on the stage feel, if it doesn't feel good, Grandma, you say, I'll let the stage change to a Yue Opera, these three days of church meeting, Grandma can watch it however she wants, completely according to your wishes, Grandma. ”

"No, no, this is very good, this is very good, now I am acting in "Nine Jin Girl", and my grandmother likes to watch this Yue Opera the most. Chao Gang, this time for my wife's birthday, you spent a lot of money, it's really fortunate that my Chao Gang, there is such a birthday, my grandmother is satisfied, and this life is worth it. Even if I go to see your grandfather now, I don't have any regrets. The old woman really didn't expect such a day!"

Grandma said with a sigh, to be honest, grandma really didn't expect Zhao Chaogang to celebrate her birthday with such fanfare, not to mention the dishes in the house that are usually only seen in the big hotel, just three days of church meetings, all of which made grandma feel like she was in a dream.

With such a birthday, my grandmother felt that this life was really worth it. As for Zhao Chaogang spending a lot of money for his birthday, his grandmother didn't care much. Just by virtue of the jade pendant that Chao Gang gave her and she now wears on her neck, her grandmother knows. Her nephew Zhao Chaogang is definitely not an ordinary person, maybe he is the martial artist mentioned on TV now, so thinking about money is really not a problem for Chaogang.

"Grandma, what are you talking about, you are still very young now, you can definitely live for another forty or fifty years, you love Nan Nan like this, you have to see Nan Nan get married and have children. Grandma, you will live a hundred years, I promise!"

Joke, grandma is my dearest, therefore. Zhao Chaogang will never let anything happen to his grandmother, there is a small world. My grandmother lived a long life. Chitose, long live is not a problem, even eternal life is not a problem.

"Live a long life? Where did my grandmother get this blessing, my grandmother is now seventy-three years old, and she has reached the age of knowing her fate, where would she want to dream of living a long life! I finally let go of a big stone in my heart, and now as long as I can see the girl get married before I die, my grandmother will be satisfied. ”

Grandma's heart is very open, and she is also very indifferent to death.

"Rest assured. Grandma, you're sure to be able to see the girl get married!"

Zhao Chaogang said with certainty that his grandmother didn't believe that she could live a long life because her grandmother didn't know her current details, and Zhao Chaogang was not in a hurry to explain to her grandmother, because the best explanation was the fact in front of her grandmother.

With the passage of time, my grandmother's health will get better and better in the future, and at that time, there is no need for Zhao Chaogang to explain anything, and my grandmother herself will believe that she can live a long life.

"Chao Gang, sit down, accompany grandma to watch this "Nine Jin Girl", those people on the stage are really good, grandma has watched Yue Opera for so many years, this is the best today, whether it is singing or moving, it is the most in place, so ......!"

Grandma didn't finish speaking, she shouted loudly and loudly, like grandma, other people in the audience also shouted loudly, and even the Nan Nan on the side clapped her palms happily, obviously Nan Nan also likes to watch such Yue Opera, which makes Zhao Chaogang on the side very depressed, because Zhao Chaogang has not liked to watch Yue Opera since he was a child.

"Chaogang, grandma forgot that you didn't like watching Yue Opera since you were a child, if you don't want to watch it, then go home to entertain guests, you don't have to accompany your wife here, there is a girl by my side, grandma won't be lonely, you go back." ”

Grandma is still so caring, after remembering that Zhao Chaogang doesn't like to watch Yue Opera, she asked Zhao Chaogang to go back first, and she didn't care if there was anyone around her.

"No need, grandma, I'll also take a look at this "Nine Jin Girl", grandma said it's good-looking, it must be good-looking. And Yue Opera is also a major feature of Huiji County, as a native of Huiji County, I have to understand whether this feature of Huiji County is not, otherwise I will be embarrassed to say that I am from Huiji County when I go out in the future, and today Chao Gang will accompany my grandmother to take a good look at this "Nine Jin Girl". ”

Grandma thinks so much about herself, and Zhao Chaogang should think more about her grandmother, so although Zhao Chaogang doesn't like to watch Yue Opera, he still stays with his grandmother to watch Yue Opera.

The feeling of having your own family by your side to watch Yue Opera with you and watching Yue Opera alone is completely different, just look at the satisfied smile on my grandmother's face now, you can know this.

"Okay, that's good, we should watch Yue Opera in Ji County, Yue Opera is the characteristic drama of Ji County, as people from Hui Ji County, we should not forget Jì Yue Opera, Chao Gang, you can stay with your grandmother to watch Yue Opera, Grandma is very happy. Come, come, grandma will tell Chao Gang about the content of the Yue opera "Nine Jin Girl", and Chao Gang doesn't know the previous content yet, right....... ”

After Zhao Chaogang sat down, his grandmother began to whisper to Zhao Chaogang about the previous content ......of "Nine Jin Girl", and Zhao Chaogang also began to listen to it very attentively.

To be honest, after Zhao Chaogang carefully watched "Nine Jin Girl" for a while, he found that in fact, Yue Opera is still very good, at least the "Nine Jin Girl" played in front of him is really good.

"Nine Jin Girl" is about some things about a girl called nine catties, she is the daughter of cooper Zhang Tianbao, she has been very smart since she was a child, and in her town, it is quite famous.

Shi Er, the rich man in the town, heard about the cleverness of the nine-catty girl, and wanted his third son to marry the nine-catty girl, but he was afraid that the nine-catty girl's cleverness was exaggerated, so he came to the nine-catty girl's house for an interview to explore the nine-catty girl.

Shi Er had a lot of problems, and the results were all solved by the nine-catty girl three times five divided by two (the walker likes to watch this play the most, which is quite good-looking), and saw that the problems he came up with were easily solved by the nine-catty girl, Shi Er was very satisfied with the nine-catty girl, so he let his third son marry the nine-catty girl.

After the nine-catty girl passed the door, her father Zhang Tianbao accidentally injured a yellow cat in the town that was also a big landlord's third uncle, and the third uncle wanted to blackmail Shi Er with this yellow cat for a large sum of money, which triggered the battle of wits between the nine-catty girl and the third uncle, and finally the nine-catty girl defeated the third uncle Such a folklore story.

To be honest, this story sounds like it's very ordinary, but after it was performed in Yue Opera, it looked really good, especially the part where Shi Er and the nine-catty girl fought wits and courage, even Zhao Chaogang was very fascinated by it, Zhao Chaogang had never been so fascinated when he watched the movie, it can be seen that the charm of "The Nine-catty Girl" is indeed full.

A Yue opera generally lasts about two hours, but at eleven o'clock at noon, grandma's birthday banquet is about to start, so although Zhao Chaogang is a little addicted to the Yue opera "Nine Jin Girl", but at half past nine, Zhao Chaogang still left, and he had to make longevity noodles for his grandmother's seventy-third birthday.

In the city, whether it is the elderly or children, they eat cakes for their birthdays, but in Zhao Chaogang's hometown, they never eat cakes, especially for the birthdays of the elderly.

This time, Zhao Chaogang is also going to make a longevity noodle for his grandmother, and since this year is his grandmother's seventy-third birthday, Zhao Chaogang is going to make the noodles in this bowl of longevity noodles made by Zhao Chaogang 73 meters long.

Of course, this noodle will not be very thick, otherwise, after my grandmother eats the noodles, she will not have to eat anything else.

The Han folk have always had the custom of eating longevity noodles on birthdays, the custom has a long history, according to legend, it is related to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the main ingredient of longevity noodles is high gluten powder, with various seasonings to eat. It represents a kind of good wish for the future of people.

In fact, there is such a story about longevity noodles.

According to legend, in the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed in ghosts and gods and believed in physiognomy, one day he chatted with the ministers, when it came to the length of people's life, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Picture Book" said, people are long, life expectancy is long, if people are 1 inch long, you can live to 100 years old. ”

As soon as Emperor Wu of Han finished speaking, Dongfang Shuo, the minister sitting next to Emperor Wu of Han, laughed when he heard it, and the other ministers were inexplicable, blaming him for being rude to the emperor.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also very curious and asked him what he was laughing at, and Dongfang Shuo explained: "I am not laughing at His Majesty, but laughing at Peng Zu." A person lives to be 100 years old, and his middle is 1 inch long, and Peng Zu lived to be 800 years old, and his middle is 8 inches long, so how long is his face. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard it, it seems that if you want to live a long life, it is impossible to grow your face longer, but you can think of a workaround to express your desire for a long life, so longevity noodles appeared.

The face is the face, and "the face is long", so people borrow long noodles to bless longevity.

Gradually, this practice evolved into the habit of eating noodles on birthdays (festivals), which is called eating "longevity noodles".

Generally speaking, there is only one noodle in the whole bowl of longevity noodles, and it is best not to break it when eating, as long as you do not break the bowl of longevity noodles, it means that the old man will be able to live a long life.

This is actually a kind of good expectation of relatives for the elderly, and this custom has been inherited to this day. (To be continued......)
