Outside the male master, inside the female lead, all along, this kind of thinking is rooted in our hearts, the traditional concept is that the kitchen is a woman's world, the stove is a woman's workbench, the stove from the mother-in-law to the daughter-in-law, from the daughter-in-law to the granddaughter-in-law, generation after generation of blood connection, generations of women are also burning their lives in front of the blazing stove.
The stove is made of three meals a day, and the stove is the fireworks of the world. If a home does not have a stove, it lacks the taste of home.
The traditional stove is made of adobe, with a stove, a stove door, a chimney eye, and the size of the pot is purchased according to the number of people in the family, all of which are cast in pig iron. Later, the stove was made of bricks, and the stove was made of tiles, which made it cleaner.
In the past, it was my mother who went around the stove, and my mother and father went to work in the fields together, but when I got home, my father sat in the upper room like a foreigner in the past, waiting for my mother to cook the meal and serve it to his old man.
Dad is a typical machismo, but I'm not, since I was a child, I helped my mother pull the bellows, the bellows click, the sound of the bellows, still echoes in my memory, at that time the family was poor, can't afford to burn carbon, the stove is burned with firewood, corn stalks, small branches, wheat stalks, flax stalks are all firewood**, when it rains, firewood is often piled under the stove, when the fire is burned, a spark falls, you must quickly step on it, so as not to catch fire.
Later, the hand-cranked blower took the bellows, and the shaking was much looser, and then later, the electric blower took the hand-cranked blower, and people were liberated, I no longer had to pull the bellows, and my mother could cook alone.
Nowadays, with the improvement of people's living standards, gas stoves, rice cookers have entered thousands of households, the button is pressed, you can cook, it is more convenient and trouble-free, no longer need to burn the fire, the previous stove is in a hurry and can't get up, the anxious people are like ants on the hot pot, turning around, the current stove, like an antique, lying there quietly, no one pays attention to it.
But I still think that the food cooked on the stove tastes more delicious, and the dishes fried in the rice cooker are like boiled dishes, and they lose the soul of the dishes.
The improvement of cooking tools is indeed a lot more convenient, but what really liberates women is the change of traditional concepts, and what really liberates women from the stove is the concept, modern society, men and women are equal, men can do, women can do, women can do, men can also do, women drive a lot of cars, trains and planes, and women are also on the spaceship.
Cooking is a chore shared by husband and wife, and I love to cook the most, watching those messy ingredients, after we cook, turned into fragrant and delicious, and the sense of accomplishment is happier than when I was paid.
My daughter-in-law also often cooks with me, I roll the dough, she washes the vegetables, she rolls the dough, I wash the vegetables, the two of them talk and laugh and cook together, just like playing a beautiful music together.
After eating, I will take the initiative to wash the pot, whoever washes it is the same, who has time to wash, washing the pot also has a sense of achievement, when a piece of cups and plates are messed up by us in an orderly manner, when the pots and pans full of oil stains are cleaned by us, it makes people feel comfortable to look at, isn't this an achievement?
Sometimes we go to a restaurant outside to improve our lives, and sometimes we order takeout when we are busy.
How convenient life is now, we don't have to cook, we can live without leaving the stove. Those stoves that have suppressed people for thousands of years have been overturned to the ground by society, just like the Leifeng Pagoda that suppressed the White Lady, and they will eventually fall down.
Especially for professional single women living in big cities, life is stressful and time is tight, how can they have time to cook, buy and eat outside, they will save time, so that they have more time for other things.
But I think it's better to cook at home when you have time, the meals in the restaurants outside, the seasoning is heavy, the taste is strong, you feel fragrant when you eat a meal and a half, you don't like to eat every day, you don't like to eat at home, the food you cook at home, although the taste is light, but you don't get tired of eating every day, think about it, coarse tea and light rice can nourish the body, and indifferent Mingzhi can nourish the heart.
The important thing is that cooking at home can enhance the feelings of the family, the family, around the dining table, talking and laughing, talking and laughing, eating delicious, talking about the short of the family, this is the most rare reunion moment of the day, but also the happiest moment of the day, is the moment of joy under the knees of Chenghuan, it is really good.
So, let me choose, my daughter-in-law and I would rather be suppressed under the stove, cook ordinary three meals a day, and live a dull and happy life.
