How many people still remember the homesickness of the earthen stove burning a fire in the countryside? ...

Anyone who has lived in the countryside will be deeply impressed by the earthen stove, with red walls and low tiles, and every household will smoke every meal. Whenever you walk into the street at this time, the air is filled with the smell of food. For the baby born and raised in the countryside, this is the most beautiful food in his hometown, and these are all from the most unforgettable firewood stove in his memory!

At that time, every household in the countryside had its own earthen stove. Every time it's almost time for dinner, my mother starts to get busy, washing vegetables, washing rice and cutting vegetables. Everything revolves around this earthen stove in one go. The faint scenery in the room shines on my mother. At this moment, I think my mother is so great. The crackling of firewood in the stove and the sound of shovels cooking constitute the best sound of my childhood. At this time, my mother will call me and ask me to help make a fire. This is the most missed childhood. Before long, the whole kitchen was filled with the smell of food, which was the warmth of home and the smell of mother!

However, the years are still old and parents are old. Although my mother is still busy around the stove every day, the taste of today's food is not what I remembered as a child. The food cooked by the gas stove always feels something is missing. The earthen stoves and firewood in the depths of childhood memories have gradually disappeared from our sight, replaced by various increasingly advanced intelligent stoves. The picture of cooking and smoking in rural households no longer exists, only in the memory of most people!

At that time, cooking in the countryside was very convenient and did not require much investment. Firewood for cooking is everywhere. Usually the stove is full of dead branches, corn stalks, rice straw and soybean mung bean stalks, and a large part of the kitchen is firewood. Especially on rainy days, my mother carried firewood into the house in advance and worked in front of the stove. Generally speaking, most of the people who do this kind of fire-burning work are children. When we make a fire, we always like to go to the stove. I'm not afraid of the heat, whether it's dirty or not, I peel it off and put it in my mouth. Wood-fired sweet potato, sweet and waxy. After eating, my mother will smile and say, a face of hair and beard!

The winter of childhood is always so long, and the road is blocked by heavy snow. At that time, the countryside was all dirt roads. When it snows, the roads in the countryside are frozen for several months. It's terribly cold and there is no heating tool. Whenever it's almost time for dinner, I rush to make a fire so that I can keep warm. Then I roast my hands, take off my shoes and roast my feet at the stove. At that time, I felt that the earthen stove not only solved the food at home. Mom cooked a good dish, and a bowl of noodle soup was warm all over!

As people who have lived in the countryside, they often miss the earthen stoves in the depths of their childhood memories, the delicious food cooked by their mothers, the taste of their own cooking and the taste of baked sweet potatoes. The familiar smoke temperature nourishes the hearts of generations. No matter how the times change, the rural earthen stove in childhood memory is a homesickness that we can never erase in our hearts! The best meal in the world is not a feast of delicacies, but a meal cooked by my mother!
