By five o'clock in the afternoon, everything was ready, and the whole family gathered around the stove and watched TV and played with their cell phones.

In the kitchen, Kang Liu and Wu Li were busy with their mothers, preparing evening meals and preparing for the New Year’s Eve dinner tomorrow morning.

In some places, the meal on New Year’s Eve night is called the New Year’s Eve dinner, and the preparations are very rich.

However, for Wu Fei and the others, this New Year's Eve meal is no different from usual. It is usually simple to cook and it starts at around 6 o'clock in the evening. Unlike in some places, it takes until midnight to have the New Year's Eve dinner.

For Wu Fei and the others, the truly sumptuous meal was the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, which was the official New Year's Eve dinner.

After dinner, the matter in the kitchen was left to my father, and everyone was watching TV around the table.

At this time, every TV station held a similar Spring Festival Gala. Except for taking a look at it occasionally, Wu Fei spent most of his time on his mobile phone.

In Wu Fei and his family, the father is actually the best cooking skills. However, Wu Fei doesn’t eat the food his father cooks a few times a year, and his mother usually does the things in the kitchen.

However, every year, my father cooks the New Year’s Eve dinner. After finishing this meal on New Year’s Eve, the kitchen is completely handed over to my father, washing dishes and cooking are all my father’s business.

My mother, who has cooked a meal for the family for a year, can sit in front of the TV and watch TV peacefully.

Otherwise, after making three meals a day, after everyone finishes eating, they have to clean up the dishes, wash the dishes, and clean them so that they have time to watch TV for a while.

Wu Fei didn’t know what other people’s home was like. Anyway, Wu Bang had always been the New Year’s Eve dinner at his own home.

Wu Bang is usually busy until around 10 o'clock in the evening, and can prepare the meal for the first day of the Lunar New Year. Then he will rest for a few hours and wait until around 10 o'clock in the first and third o'clock in the morning. He usually prepares a meal before five o'clock.

Because Wu Fei's New Year's Eve dinner has always been eaten at 5 o'clock in the morning on the first day of the New Year.

In fact, from the period from New Year's Eve to the morning of the first day of the first day, there was no time for the village to be quiet, and the sound of firecrackers from each household did not stop.

At about nine o'clock, Wu Bang walked in with a bowl of bacon cut into large pieces and said to everyone: "Everyone comes to eat two pieces of bacon. After eating, they go outside to pay New Year's greetings to grandparents."

When Wu Fei and the others were watching TV, Wu Bang was not only busy with the things in the kitchen, but even the incense table outside had been set up.

On New Year's Eve, shortly after dinner, the home will place incense tables, wine, tea, chicken, fish, meat and other things, and then light scented and candles.

After laying out a long firecracker, the family would kowtow to the deceased grandparents in front of the incense table.

At this time, in front of the divine platform with the "Heaven, Earth, Lord, Parents and Teachers" had been wiped clean, and the portraits of grandparents were placed on it.

Every year during the Chinese New Year, the family will kowtow to grandparents at this time. In addition to wishing grandparents New Year, they also ask grandparents in heaven to bless the family with peace and safety.

In addition to the evening of New Year's Eve, before having the New Year's Eve dinner on the morning of the New Year's Day, everyone would kowtow to their grandparents to greet the New Year, and then officially start eating the New Year's Eve dinner.

After the kowtow was completed, there was no such thing as Wu Fei and the others. Only then can everyone be considered free to move. In addition to watching the Spring Festival Gala, fireworks and firecrackers are set off.

At Wu Fei's house, firecrackers cannot be set off before kowtowing to his grandparents. However, after kowtowing, there are no so many restrictions.

In the past, Wu Fei would always take a burning incense stick on the incense table to light firecrackers and fireworks. Using this to light firecrackers is much more convenient than using a lighter, and there is no worry about being blown out by the wind.

After kowtowing to Wu Fei's grandparents, sisters Wu Li and Zhang Yibin have to go to their brother-in-law to wish them New Year's greetings to their brother-in-law Zhang Yibin's deceased parents.

At this time, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers in the village did not stop. Many times, in the same room, they had to speak louder to hear clearly.

In the past, when my family was not in good condition, I didn’t buy a lot of fireworks and firecrackers every year during the Chinese New Year. Sometimes, except for a few firecrackers, I wouldn’t buy fireworks for Wu Fei and the others at all.

Only after Wu Fei and the others get the New Year's money can they buy two fireworks and taste them. If you want to enjoy them, you can only think about it.

But when Wu Fei and the others left school and could make money, they would no longer have the appetite to set off fireworks and firecrackers during the Chinese New Year.

However, during the Chinese New Year every year, I still buy fireworks and firecrackers worth a few thousand yuan, just for the same sound. At least that's what Wu Fei thought.

Because when other people's homes keep ringing, your home is quiet and there is no noise at all, that's too shameless.

In the past, I had no money, so I could only buy two firecrackers, and set them up when I greeted my grandparents. Now that I have money, even if Wu Fei no longer likes setting off firecrackers, I will still buy a lot of them and come.

However, Wu Fei was not interested, Kang Liu and Xiao Duoduo were very interested. After setting off two buckets of fireworks, Xiao Duoduo reluctantly followed his parents back to his home to burn incense and greet his grandparents.

"Uncle and aunt, you have to wait until I come back before you set it off. I will be back soon." Even when I left, Xiao Duoduo turned around one step at a time, looked at the fireworks placed in the yard, and said to Wu Fei and Kang Liu.

In fact, firecrackers are no longer allowed during the Chinese New Year, especially in the county town and the suburbs next to the county town.

During the Chinese New Year and the holidays, the village horns always shouted several times a day: "Don't set off fireworks and firecrackers, if you catch them, you will be fined."

In recent years, fewer and fewer people set off fireworks and firecrackers in the city and the suburbs, because they will be fined if they catch them.

In fact, fines are small things, but it is just a matter of New Year. Being fined is always an upsetting thing. Originally, a happy thing during the New Year has been affected by these things.

The last time Wu Fei Hotel opened, I paid a fine in advance before setting off firecrackers.

However, when we arrived in the village, everyone ignored him. The county's policies were not in charge of the village at this time. Every year, they were called on him on the radio, and everyone should set off his firecrackers. Even the village chief's house still set off firecrackers every year, and there was no one in which they set off less than others' homes.
