Chapter 178 New Year's Eve
The New Year customs at this time are the most lively. From the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, what do you do every day? That is all about the details.
The entire Jiang family is also busy every day.
In fact, if Jiang’s father and mother were both employees, if they hadn’t had too many children at home, they would have lived a pretty good life.
But there are many children. Jiang’s father and mother can prepare some things every year during the Chinese New Year, not to mention this year.
With so many tickets brought back by Jiang Xiaobai, I have been counting on a fat year.
"Boss, you're fine today, don't go out. You and your second brother clean the house with your mother,"
"Honglan, you and Hongmei went to queue up to buy meat early. I went there late, and the fat meat was gone."
Early in the morning, Jiang's mother was arranging the work of the whole family.
This year, in order to allow the people of the whole country to have a good New Year, the country has opened up its supply of meat.
"Okay." The eldest brother Jiang Zijun and the second brother Jiang Zijian responded.
"Let's go now." Second sister Jiang Honglan and third sister Jiang Hongxiang nodded and said.
Several people were full of excitement. It was the Chinese New Year, and they were just a atmosphere. Only by working hard and preparing for the Chinese New Year can they have the atmosphere.
"Missary, take your little sister out for fun, come back for breakfast at noon."
Jiang's mother looked at the remaining Jiang Xiaobai and her younger sister Jiang Zimei again and said.
The other four brothers and sisters turned black when they heard Jiang's mother's words.
However, no one dared to object. Jiang Xiaobai just came back two days ago. Jiang Honglan wanted to compete for favor, but they still remembered the scene when Jiang's mother was pressed to the ground and rubbed her hard.
In addition, Jiang Xiaobai got back a lot of tickets, so they endured it.
Jiang Xiaobai took the little sister's hand and went out.
"The baby is looking forward to the New Year and can wear it; the baby is looking forward to the New Year and can eat white buns and long noodles..." A group of children in the alley passed by like the wind, leaving behind a string of singing.
At this time, every family is the same as three meals a day; every day is the same as three meals a day. If you want to eat white rice and thin noodles, you have to wait for guests to come to your home, and wait for the holidays, and wait until your home or relatives’ home to get married to your daughter and wife.
So the children are really looking forward to the New Year.
Jiang Xiaobai and her younger sister would stop by various snack stalls from time to time and buy some food.
A sprinkle of five cents per piece and a sesame cake of two cents are the best snacks for the children at this time. The little sister's belly was full and she couldn't walk in the end.
Jiang Xiaobai hugged her little sister, but she couldn't walk far, so Jiang Xiaobai couldn't hold her anymore.
"Brother." The little girl looked at Jiang Xiaobai with contempt.
Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but reach out and pinch the little girl's chubby face, and then laughed.
These days after returning, he has truly integrated into the Jiang family.
With the children's expectations, it finally came New Year's Eve.
On the morning of New Year's Eve, my elder sister Jiang Hongmei and brother-in-law Li Donghai brought the children back and gave me some bacon and pastries.
I left after lunch. After all, I was married and I would definitely not spend the New Year at my parents' home.
On New Year's Eve, Jiang's mother cooked a large table of dishes, which was the most sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner in the history of the Jiang family.
Of course, there was no Spring Festival Gala at this time, not to mention that the Jiang family did not have TV series, and even if there were TV series, there was no such program.
It's just a family having a meal together.
Before the meal started, the little girl Jiang Xiaomei stopped leaving around the table and drooled at the food on the table.
"My parents, I wish you a happy New Year, all the best, and all your wishes come true!" Jiang Xiaobai stood up with a glass of wine and said to the two elders.
In fact, he shouldn't have toasted first, but such blessings have become a habit in future generations.
But at this time no one could say it.
"Brother, sister..." Jiang Xiaobai said and winked at the other brothers and sisters, but the other brothers and sisters were indifferent.
No one is embarrassed to stand up.
"Okay, thank you son."
Jiang’s mother and Jiang’s father were so happy.
After three rounds of drinking, Jiang's father said, "After the New Year, I will retire. Let the Son take the lead and go to work in the factory."
Before Jiang's father finished speaking, Jiang's mother was about to speak. Jiang's father was not old and it was not time to retire.
"Boss, I'm not young anymore, and it's not easy to get married without a job. I'm the same if I don't retire for a few years now.
Hongxiang gets married after the New Year, and I will find a way to deal with Honglan as soon as possible."
As Jiang's father said, Jiang Honglan's face turned dark, what does it mean to find a way to deal with me as soon as possible?
Am I a cargo? Get it done.
"There are only Zijian and Xiaobai left at home, Xiaomei. Xiaobai can earn money by himself now..."
As Jiang's father said, Jiang's mother was not happy.
"Xiaobai earns money by himself, but we must take care of it." Jiang's mother interrupted Jiang's father with a firm determination.
"Okay, there are only three children left in the family, Zijian, Xiaobai and Xiaomei. I will have a retirement salary at that time, and you will still receive a salary, and I can earn more money outside. Even if the boss gets married, it will be enough for us to support our three children."
After saying that, the dinner table fell silent.
Jiang's mother was a little unhappy and didn't agree, but she didn't object.
Honglan and Hongxiang are girls and are destined to get married, so they don’t have much say in such matters.
But Xiaomei is too young and doesn't understand these things, so it doesn't matter to Jiang Xiaobai. She can still be as big as a business.
Jiang Zijian has never cared about this, but the boss Jiang Zijun wants to agree. He has been working for a long time.
But I didn't know how to speak, and after thinking about it, Jiang Zijun was ready to retreat to advance.
"Dad, I'm not in a hurry."
Jiang Zijun felt that if he said this, someone would definitely persuade him.
But after saying that, the dining table was still quiet, and Jiang Zijun was embarrassed.
Father Jiang sighed. He wanted his whole family to agree to make a decision in the future for such a big thing.
But it is obvious that so many children have flesh on their palms and backs, and the boss will have no chance if others take over.
The five fingers are stretched out and they all have different lengths. Now the eldest is not young, so this is the only way to get married in a hurry.
"This matter is decided. I have already agreed with the factory that after the new year, the boss will go to work and prepare to receive Hongxiang's partner's house the day after tomorrow." Jiang's father gritted his teeth and said with a word.
"Thank you, dad." The boss Jiang Zijun quickly spoke. He didn't dare to play anything anymore, but retreated to advance.
As he finished speaking, he felt relieved, and he didn't care whether he was embarrassed or not.
Having a job is a big deal in this life, and nothing else matters.
