The custom of longevity noodles has been passed down in China for two thousand years. It can be said to be a very ancient tradition of the Chinese nation. However, with the recent invasion of Western culture, this traditional custom has suffered a great blow.

Especially after Western cakes entered China, many Chinese families made a bowl of longevity noodles for their elders when their elders celebrated their birthdays, especially in cities, which were abandoned very thoroughly, and the cake was replaced.

Whether it is a birthday or a banquet, there is always only cake inside, and there is no sign of longevity noodles.

The invasion of Western culture can be seen.

Zhao Chaogang's three uncles actually wanted to prepare a big cake for grandma, a cake as high as a floor (Zhao Chaogang's nephew spent so much money on grandma's birthday, they were grandma's biological sons, so of course they had to take out something that could be taken out), but this plan was refuted by grandma and Zhao Chaogang.

Grandma refuted the proposal of the three uncles, and Chinese people have to follow the old Chinese traditions for their birthdays.

Besides, the several birthdays my grandmother celebrated, she was a bowl of longevity noodles, and it was cooked by her grandfather. Grandma wanted to reminisce about the taste of longevity noodles, which was a commemoration of her dead grandfather.

When they heard that their old mother wanted to commemorate the dead old father, the three uncles said nothing. Even their grandson was criticized mercilessly by them.

When my grandmother celebrated her birthday, she decided to do the longevity noodles.

The three uncles wanted to make a bowl of longevity noodles for grandma to eat. Unfortunately, they did not have this skill, and the three uncles couldn't even make up the noodles, let alone pulling the noodles into a length of 73 meters. So, in the end, the thing about making longevity noodles fell into Zhao Chaogang's hands.

Making longevity noodles is simple and actually simple. It is difficult to say that it is difficult.

There are simple methods, and difficult methods, such as the simplest method. Just go to the supermarket to buy longevity noodles, just do it like the one below, but making such longevity noodles seems too simple.

If it is rare to make it, you must knead the noodles yourself, roll them, and make a whistle.

If you want to make your own longevity noodles, you must first prepare refined flour, eggs, salt, salad oil, rolling noodles, soy milk, and clean gauze.

After preparing these things, put the eggs, salt and refined flour together at a certain ratio. Pour a certain amount of soy milk (water is also OK), and then start kneading the dough. You must knead it very hard and repeatedly. In this way, the longevity noodles you make will be very vigorous.

After feeling that the dough is ready, put the gauze that was washed in advance in clean water and then cover the dough with wet gauze. This is on the side of the sauna (read "Wake up".

When making noodles, whether it is noodles or dead noodles, as long as it is cooked or steamed, it is used for noodles. It is to knead the noodles or noodles and then put them in the unventilated place for a while before it can be molded.

For the noodles, for the noodles, the noodles are secondary fermentation; for the dead noodles, it is to cover the noodles with plastic wrap or a wet cloth for a while, so that the gluten can better play the role of increasing the toughness of the noodles. The purpose is to make the steamed noodles softer, or the cooked noodles softer and more delicious.

While sucking the surface, you can start making whistles. Don’t make the whistle of the longevity noodles too fancy, especially the whistle of the old man’s longevity noodles. It should be light, which is good for the elderly.

The whistle Zhao Chaogang made this time was just bone soup, the thigh bones on the pig's thighs, the soup made from such big bones, and the ingredients Zhao Chaogang took out from the martial arts secret realm, were absolutely delicious.

Now at the door of the kitchen, the three uncles' grandsons were lying their heads there, and their mouths were full of saliva. They were tempted by the fragrance of Zhao Chaogangdun's bone soup. Unfortunately, this bone soup was stewed for my grandmother. Before my grandmother could eat it, everyone could not eat it. This is the rule left in my old age.

After half an hour, the noodles were ready, and it was time to pull the dough into long noodles.

However, pulling the dough into noodles not only requires good skills, but also requires a lot of strength and sufficient endurance. Therefore, if you think you don’t have such skills, just use a rolling pin to roll the dough into noodles.

If you don’t know how to use a rolling pin, you can rub it with your hands. Although the longevity noodles you made in the end look bad and are a bit thick, at least this is the longevity noodles you made by yourself. Your parents will never dislike the bowl of longevity noodles you made. For your parents, your intention is the best birthday gift.

Everyone must have seen ramen technology in ramen shops, so the traveler won’t talk about it anymore here.

Half an hour later, the longevity noodle made by Zhao Chaogang was finally ready, and this longevity noodle was definitely just 73 meters long.

When Zhao Chaogang made this longevity noodles, he was always monitoring it with his spiritual sense, so after Zhao Chaogang pulled this longevity noodles, it was exactly 73 meters long.

Although it doesn’t matter if it’s more or less, it’s just seventy-three meters long, that’s not a good sign! What you pay attention to in rural areas is a good sign.

At 11 o'clock in the afternoon, my grandmother's 73rd birthday party finally began. At this time, Zhao Chaogang prepared a total of twenty-eight banquets. Every family in Liujiabao invited them to have a meal. This is a custom in the countryside. As long as there is a big happy event, every family in the village would invite them to the banquet, and there were so many people.

Grandma's real relatives only have eight tables. Of course, the dishes on it are better than others. For example, the "Dragon and Phoenix Soup" made with "flag snakes" are only found on these eight tables. The "Dragon and Phoenix Soup" on other tables are only made of water snakes caught by themselves in the village. Only the wild freshwater eels are found on these eight tables. The others are farmed freshwater eels.

The other dishes are exactly the same, but there is always a difference between closeness and alienation.

Before grandma's birthday party, Zhao Chaogang and other direct blood relatives kowtowed to grandma who was sitting on the Grandma's chair in the lobby of their grandmother's house, saying happy birthday, even Zhao Chaogang was no exception.

"Mom, I wish you a happy birthday, every year there is today, every year there is today!" Zhao Qiang and his wife kowtowed to their grandmother first and greeted them.

"Grandma, my nephew Zhao Chaogang kowtowed you here. I wish you a happy birthday, every year, every year, every year!"

Zhao Chaogang kowtowed his grandmother three times very seriously. Some people said that the blessings Zhao Chaogang said were very old-fashioned, and they were too simple, and there were no birthday gifts. It seemed too shabby. Then I can only say one thing, you really watched too much TV.

When celebrating your own relatives’ birthday, you can give them some very literary congratulations, not to tell whether your relatives can understand it, but you show your culture to others, and you show that others’ culture is not as high as you.

It was like Zhao Chaogang saying a very literary blessing to his grandmother. Can she understand the words of happy birthday?! Grandma couldn't understand at all. Grandma only went to the second and third grades of elementary school and could only understand the words. It was really hard for her to understand those congratulations that were very literary and artistic.

As for birthday gifts, Zhao Chaogang would have given out millions or even tens of millions of birthday gifts. Is it really good for grandma's birthday this time?! I can't see it all.

First of all, Zhao Chaogang's three uncles will be very embarrassed. The nephews will all bring out tens of millions of birthday gifts, but as their biological sons, there is no gift at all. Others will definitely say something behind their backs. At that time, they will only break the relationship between Zhao Chaogang and his three uncles.

Besides, when celebrating birthdays in rural areas, they always give them a red envelope, and when they arrive at grandma's house, they will give them first. Most of the red envelopes are 100 or 200, and the wealthier ones in the family are only 500 or 1,000. If Zhao Chaogang takes out tens of millions of gifts, what do you think of these relatives? At that time, the atmosphere of this birthday party will be destroyed.

Having a happy birthday is the best reward for your loved ones.

"Grandma, my nephew's wife Li Liping kowtows to you here. I wish my grandmother a happy birthday. Every year, every year, every year!" Zhao Chaogang just started kowtowing, and Li Liping immediately kowtowed with Zhao Chaogang. Although she and Zhao Chaogang are not married yet, don't worry about so much on this day.

"Grandma, Nannan kowtowed to you. I wish you a happy birthday, today every year, today every year!"

"Okay, okay, get up, get up, Chaogang, do you know Pingping well in the future? Otherwise, let's see how I deal with you."

Grandma's smile made Zhao Chaogang's family get up. She was very satisfied with Li Liping's nephew's wife, and was filial to herself and diligent in housework. She was very satisfied with such a person as her nephew's wife.

"Grandma, Nannan also has a gift for her. Grandma, today is your birthday. Nannan sings a happy birthday song for her grandma, okay?"

Grandma just asked Zhao Chaogang to get up, but Nannan came to her grandmother's side? She said to her grandmother like a treasure.

"Okay, okay, Nannan sings a birthday song for her grandmother. Of course, she likes to listen to it. Nannan is really a very thoughtful cotton-padded jacket!" When Nannan heard that she wanted to sing a happy birthday for herself, her grandmother's face was filled with laughter.

"Happy birthday, happy birthday..."

Soon a happy birthday song full of childish voices rang in the lobby, but it didn't dissipate for a long time...
