As the saying goes, "Ten miles of different styles, hundreds of miles of different customs." People in different places will always encounter various "small problems in life" when they live together. Especially when marrying far away, there are many differences in diet and habits. If both parties cannot tolerate and understand each other, life will really be in a mess.
Take my cousin as an example. During my studies, I talked about a boyfriend from Jiangxi. So after graduation, I did not return to Yunnan, but stayed in Shenzhen with my boyfriend to work hard. After working for one year, the man's family began to urge him to go home and get married, so the two started preparing this year. First, I went back to Yunnan to meet my parents, and then to the man's house. My cousin was also nervous when I went to my boyfriend’s house in Jiangxi for the first time. Fortunately, my boyfriend’s mother was easy to get along with, so I often shared some meals.
Unexpectedly, this time I posted on Moments, my aunt got angry and left a message below: I can’t eat it and say it clearly, don’t be afraid of her! This is how it’s not married yet. How can you live after getting married in the future? Suddenly, we were all confused. After asking, we understood the reason. Let’s take a look at what food they are!
Spicy fried beans
This dish looks quite spicy, with bright color and full beans, just a little more oily, a bit greasy. My cousin said that this was grown by her boyfriend's family. Although she is a little older, it is all original food and tastes quite delicious. However, my aunt said that my cousin didn’t eat much beans at home, especially so greasy, so I must be embarrassed to say it out.
Farmhouse Braised Pork
This big bowl of braised pork looks shiny and brown, with a hint of fat. I think the taste will not be too bad, and it must be quite satisfying to eat. My cousin naturally praised her boyfriend's mother for her good skills and her braised pork is delicious. But my aunt told me that my cousin only ate lean meat since she was a child and was most afraid of being greasy, but it changed as soon as she arrived in Jiangxi... It is probably because the man's mother is not easy to get along with and will suffer losses in the future.
Stir-fried small pumpkin
This stir-fried small pumpkin looks very refreshing at first glance and it must taste very good. Although it is a simple home-cooked dish, it focuses on freshness. You can taste the tenderness of the pumpkin by simply cooking it.
Fried green pepper tofu
My cousin said that this is tofu made by her boyfriend's mother himself. Maybe she was afraid that the tofu would become bad, so she fryed it in advance, and then took out some before stir-frying, and added some chili to stir-fry, which was very tasty. Therefore, the tofu is relatively crumbly, but it tastes quite fragrant.
Stir-fried dried bamboo shoots
In Jiangxi, in autumn and winter, you must have dried vegetables at home. After drying, the dried bamboo shoots becomes soft and tough after soaking and simmering. Take it out and match it with chili. It tastes very good, spicy and chewy, and it can be used to drink wine and eat.
In my aunt's opinion, these dishes are not nutritious at all, and they are not what my cousin likes to eat. I think it was because my cousin was stunned by love, so that she pleased her boyfriend's mother like this. Therefore, I was very angry and left a message directly to make her unable to eat it. Just say it clearly, don’t be afraid of the other party.
So I asked my cousin again, but my cousin didn't think so. She said that because both of them worked outside, they rarely go back to their boyfriend's hometown, and their boyfriend's mother is really good to her, so she feels like she will. Indeed, these foods are relatively simple and homely. My aunt must be very distressed when she sees the food and table, for fear that her cousin will get angry if she gets married far away, but living a life is still the couple’s own business. What do you think?
