Chapter 391: New Year's Eve Dinner
This year's New Year's Eve dinner, except for the two chickens sent by Ruifu and the fried goods brought by Ruicheng, Wang Ying paid for everything else.
Rui Sheng is also a man who knows how to spend money. As soon as the money comes into his hands, he buys everything he likes to eat. He buys a lot of things, and it is easy to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner. There are all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, steamed vegetables and bowls that can make a table.
.
Women were busy with the work on the stove, and the men couldn't get involved. They all sat in the main room chatting. Rui Quan was surrounded by a group of children, listening to his stories.
Rui Quan also liked these nieces and nephews. Except for the stories passed down from the older generation, the rest of the stories he told were purely random and made up to make up ghosts. Several children were frightened after hearing this, but
The more scared he became, the more he wanted to listen, and he begged Rui Quan and told him one thing after another.
"Then I will tell you one more story." Rui Quan smiled and said to the child: "This is a true story. When did it happen? Yes, last year, one day I went to the hut in the middle of the night and kept hearing a rattling outside the wall.
There were also people chattering, which scared me awake at that time. It was a beautiful moon day, so I secretly looked out along the jade stalks. Guess what." Rui Quan gave it away and looked at the child with a mysterious face.
them.
Shi Ke and others opened their eyes and asked curiously, "Uncle Liu, what did you see?"
"I saw two weasels worshiping the moon, that's all." Rui Quan said, standing up and imitating the old monk's bow and cupping his hands to the sky. "I was so scared at the time that I didn't dare to express my anger for fear of the two weasels.
Come to me and ask questions."
Nian Nian was surprised, "Uncle Six, how can a weasel speak human language?"
Rui Quan said seriously: "Why can't you speak human language? Let me tell you, the weasels who have practiced for many years can no longer speak human language. Some of them can transform into human forms. Let alone weasels, everything has them."
Spirit, that little rabbit, kitten, maybe the broom knot behind the door can become a spirit."
Xiaohai: "Uncle Six, have you ever seen a weasel transform into a human?"
Rui Quan: "Then why haven't you seen it? Let me tell you, if you meet someone on the road with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, which looks very similar to a weasel, that's pretty much it."
Nian Nian: "Then can they eat people?"
"If you don't mess with them, they won't. For example, if you find out that they are transformed into goblins, just know it in your heart. You can't ask. You have to ask, are you transformed into a weasel? It can transform back into its original shape immediately.
Then he swallowed the person with a slurp." Rui Quan said the wonderful part, opened his mouth, and his two big hands turned into two sharp claws to grab Nian Nian, "Wow, the old goblin is here and wants to eat the child.
Already."
"Ah--" Nian Nian screamed, turned around and ran away.
Rui Quan then went to catch other Shi Ke and the others, scaring the children so much that they screamed and ran all over the yard. The good story session turned into a game, with the old goblin catching the children.
The children's happiness also infected the adults, and Wang Ying felt better. She looked at the children and smiled while cooking.
"Mom." Niannian gasped and hid behind her, "Uncle Six said he had seen a weasel transform into a person. Have you seen it?"
"Your sixth uncle is just teasing you. There are no monsters in the world."
Nian Nian really believed Rui Quan's words, "But Uncle Six said he had seen it before."
He Xiaoxia laughed at the side and said: "The old man is good and doesn't teach. He is spreading feudal poison. If this happened in those years, he would have to be criticized."
Sun Xiufang sat under the stove and lit a fire. The firelight reflected on her face, and it was clearly visible that there was a smile on her face.
"Nian Nian, dear grandson, come to grandma. Grandma will bake peanuts for you."
Niannian shook her head. He didn't like roasted peanuts. He liked roasted sweet potatoes the most. "Grandma, can you roast the sweet potatoes for me?"
Sun Xiufang: "Hey~ It's time to eat soon. What are you going to eat roasted sweet potatoes? I'll have some big chicken drumsticks later."
What Wang Ying stewed in the pot was chicken. The chicken fat sent by Ruifu had been raised for who knows how many years. When he chopped the chicken pieces, it was obvious that the bones were hard. This kind of old chicken stewed was particularly fragrant, but it was a waste of heat.
Wang Ying pinched a small piece of chicken from the pot and put it into Niannian's mouth, and said, "This is ready to eat. Niannian, go to the house and help set up the stools to prepare for dinner."
Ruicheng crossed his legs, folded his hands on his knees and started lighting them. He said to the two brothers next to him: "Look, our sister-in-law put the urn of our eldest brother here just to show us.
"
Rui Shenghuan didn't care, "Just let her do it. We can't say we won't let her do it."
"My sister-in-law is trying to mess with us." Ruifu sat by the stove, putting his hands on the stove to warm the fire.
Ruicheng: "My mother said that we would find a date after the Chinese New Year for my eldest brother to enter the ancestral grave. By the way, we can do it together for three consecutive years."
"Then let's do it." Ruifu said: "My sister-in-law is so angry, it would be inappropriate not to send my eldest brother to the ancestral grave."
Ruisheng picked up a meatball from the bowl and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's time for my sister-in-law to leave after the Chinese New Year. I have to hurry up if I need to do something."
Ruicheng: "Well, I'll ask later. What I'm talking to you about today is the cost of eldest brother's funeral. Let's discuss the amount and see how much the family can contribute."
"I don't have any money." Ruisheng answered quickly, "Second brother, you know me. When did I ever have any spare money in my hand?"
Ruicheng usually had a lot of dissatisfaction with this younger brother. He felt that Ruicheng did not do anything serious and only played cards all day long. As an older brother, he originally wanted to worry about Ruisheng and say a few words to Ruisheng, but he tried to do it a few times and it didn't work.
, and made his brother bother him, so he stopped talking. At this time, he needed money, and he couldn't get it. Ruicheng couldn't help but said, "Where is your money? The grain harvested from the fields.
, there will still be a lot left after paying for the public food. You can eat as much as you want. Where did the money go? It was all given to your little friends!"
What did the second brother say? Ruisheng felt unhappy and shouted: "Second brother, what you said is wrong. I'm not stupid. Why would I give away my hard-earned money to others? I
I ate and spent all that money."
"Still eating?" Ruicheng sneered, "I think you've lost everything."
Ruisheng said plausibly: "Are you playing cards? If you lose, you win. It's not like I haven't won before."
Ruifu's heart was not in the old house. He wanted to finish his meal and leave quickly, "Okay, okay, it's Chinese New Year, you two, stop arguing." Ruifu clapped his hands and stood up, "
I'll go see if the food is ready."
Ruifu opened the door, and Nian Nian ran up to him, "Uncle Third, my mother said that we have set up a stool for dinner."
