How to stir-fry cabbage

Housewives often make the mistake of adding oil and vegetables before the pan is hot, then excessively stir-frying them, and adding water halfway through because they are afraid the leaves will become too dry. As a result, the finished product is both greasy and watery and is barely edible. The purpose of soaking vegetables in water beforehand is to lock the moisture in the leaves. This also allows the leaves to be quickly cooked from the inside during the heating process. This prevents the vegetables from becoming too dry during the cooking process due to the loss of moisture, which would cause the leaves to become wet if they are replenished with water. In addition, adding water in the middle of the cooking process will immediately lower the temperature, and it will take more time to cook the vegetables.

When buying a house, when you look at the total price, is it really the total price?

When buying a house, you can’t just look at the total price. The decoration and renovation costs are the real hidden costs. Whether it is a new house or a used house, subsequent decoration must be paid for by the buyer and is not included in the loan, which often makes people realize that their budget has exceeded the limit after buying the house. You should estimate the decoration costs when viewing a house and include them in the total cost comparison, so that you can choose an ideal house that truly meets your budget, has a good location and is safe to live in.

Words in the Wind

The main reason I bought this house in Yilan was because it had a small garden, which is what I have told my guests over the years that this is the kind of residence they have been pursuing. In front of the house is the vast, unobstructed countryside, and in the distance you can see the magnificent mountains. This place is very convenient, with beautiful scenery, chirping insects and birds. I have decided from the beginning that this is where my children will rest in peace.

Aben tree burial

The weather today is very sunny, just a little windy. Tell Aben that today is a good day. I will help you bury you in the small garden where we often play. After getting up and washing up briefly, he took Ah Ben's urn downstairs and first turned up the Sanskrit Heart Sutra that was played every day on the first floor. Then he walked out of the door, picked up a small shovel, and dug a small hole under each big tree in the small garden.

Tax risks of investment-type insurance policies

The tax risk of investment-type policies depends on the "gains" (withdrawal amount - premiums paid), not whether it exceeds the principal. If there is no profit, there is no tax exemption; if there is a profit, the tax burden is determined by the annual income and the tax exemption amount. The withdrawal amount is tax-free if it is less than 92,000 (2024 standard), but it will be included in the comprehensive income tax declaration (tax rate 5%~40%) if it exceeds. There is no need to worry if the investment is below 1 million. For investments above 2 million, it is recommended to withdraw the funds in installments and make reasonable plans to save taxes. Those who invest more than 5 million should plan their taxes in advance to avoid high tax burdens.

Dreaming of Ah Ben

As if to comfort me in this way, the decision I made that day to take Him home to rest was the best option. At least He could pass away slowly in a safe and familiar home, leaning on me. I don't know why I had such a dream, reliving the scene of farewell again, and it was in the worst hospital, parting in a cold iron cage. It was all so unforgettable.

Ah Ben takes medicine

For the sake of his selfish master, Ah Ben is forced to take so many different kinds of medicine and nutritional supplements every day, and is often given subcutaneous injections. Although he is extremely reluctant, he will still cooperate a little, allowing me to feed him by hand each time, which only takes a second, and giving him the medicine in batches can be completed in less than a minute.

It seems like a dream!

Just like every time I woke up, I first touched his head, scratched his chin, pinched his neck, stroked his torso, stroked his tail, pulled his little hand, and pressed the cute flesh-colored little bear. Finally, as usual, I buried my head in various parts that had always smelled good, took a few deep sips, and then kissed him, telling each other that it was about time to go out and move forward.

Aben

Ah stupid! Daddy really, really loves you. You will always be my most beloved son. Xiaotian and Shasha are also my favorite children. I am really lucky and happy to have these three little cuties to accompany me for so many years.
