Happiness is just a short distance home-Phoenix Returns to its Nest-Braised Pig Ears

Overview

Could it be that the festive atmosphere makes LEMON even more nostalgic? Every moment of his childhood flashes through his mind. If he had a second chance in life, LEMON would choose his cool dad as his family member. Very happy! Dad is always the hero in his daughter’s heart~ Today’s LEMON’s Phoenix Returns to the Nest is dad’s favorite food! My father loved drinking. In his day, wine was hard to buy, so my father, who loved drinking, even mixed it with medical alcohol and drank it cold. According to the current health regimen, this is called life-threatening. My mother is a doctor, so she has medical alcohol. At that time, my father put two and a half whiskey bottles in the back of his overalls pocket and drank while driving. If it were changed now, he would be driving under the influence! But there were very few cars on the road at that time~ Driving a car felt like riding a horse on a vast grassland! That’s cool~ He’s a handsome dad, a bit like an American soldier~ LEMON has admired his dad since he was a child. Dad can do anything; he is handsome; his natural curly hair never needs to be styled; he can go out looking handsome by grabbing it with his hands twice a day; he has a high nose, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He can dance the national standard, play the saxophone, draw, make clothes, and cook. When looking for a boyfriend, my cousin must use the third uncle as the standard; in his thirties, he finally found a brother Meng He in Mongolia who looked exactly like his father. My father loves wine, so naturally he suffers from stomach problems, and my mother feels sorry for him. He said: If you drink again, I will soak you in a wine jar! But I will continue to make snacks for my father. Dad loves to eat pig ears the most. I remember that every time when dad drinks, LEMON will sit next to him. Dad takes a sip of wine and feeds LEMON a pig ear. Mom and Dad love LEMON the most; Mom said: Girls can’t stay with their parents for long; they don’t know where they will be in the future~ It sounds a bit sentimental, but it is true. It was only after I left my parents that I realized the true meaning of my mother. Going home every year is like returning a phoenix to its nest. When his mother cut the pig ears, LEMON felt that the cut pig ears looked very much like the tail of a phoenix. In order to praise his father, LEMON would put out a beautiful platter of phoenixes to return to the nest. Now my father will no longer drink medical alcohol, and my brother will buy him red wine. LEMON discovered that dad’s body really needs the nourishment of alcohol. As long as he drinks alcohol, his face will be glowing and he will be full of energy! Happiness is just a short distance home! Parents and children are connected by an invisible thread. No matter how far we go, the longing thread will always beat our hearts, thinking about each other!
