She would not sleep for the first few nights of New Year's Eve, frying small fruits, cat ears, steamed rice cakes, pancakes, steamed bean buns, fried tofu, croquettes... What impressed me most was the fried small fruits, which is what people call it in my hometown. It is called Pai Cha in Beijing, but I prefer to call it fried small fruits. I didn't sleep all night for several days, but at dawn this morning I saw my mother's busy figure and the small fruits she fried... I was upset and started to make noodles. I haven't cooked by myself in a few years. My mother worked hard to make a lot of things in my hometown before the Spring Festival every year. Except for leaving some to eat during the New Year, most of the rest will be given to relatives to taste. It is here to give to me and my children... everything... Since my mother passed away last year, I will never receive my mother's kindness, and I will never be able to taste the taste of home... The dream at dawn deeply awakened the taste of home deep in my memory... As I was thinking about it, my daughter said, it is very crispy, just like what grandma made.
