Chen Yuan went over and opened the curtains. Outside the window was the back of the house, with an orchard and a small fish pond.
Lin Xinhai and Chen's father set off cannons and fried fish next to the fish pond.
The fish pond is not well managed, and there are only some small miscellaneous fish in it, mainly crucian carp. Under a big firecracker, a layer of white smoke rises from the water surface.
They just went to town to buy cannons that can fry fish.
Yan Xiaoxi hugged Chen Yuan from behind and looked out: "Master, what are they doing?"
"Fry fish." Chen Yuan said, "Would you like to go down and play?"
Yan Xiaoxi nodded.
Chen Yuan turned around, hugged Yan Xiaoxi, lowered his head and kissed her.
After a long time, their lips parted, Yan Xiaoxi's fair and tender face turned red, and she slapped Chen Yuan hard twice.
The bedroom was very spacious. Chen Yuan hugged Yan Xiaoxi and spun around in circles: "By the way, have you called your mother?"
"Fighted."
"Okay." Chen Yuan took Yan Xiaoxi's hand and went downstairs to the mahjong room: "Would you like to set off fireworks?"
"It's not dark yet, let's play with fireworks after it gets dark," Chen Xin said.
Lin Xiaoyue also said: "Let's set off the fireworks when it gets dark."
Suddenly there was a "bang" sound outside, someone was setting off firecrackers outside.
"Who is setting off cannons next to the house?" Zhou Sheng shouted from next door.
With this loud noise, the card players stopped playing cards and went out one after another to play with the big firecrackers.
It's getting dark, but it's not completely dark yet.
Chen Yuan opened a bundle of fireworks, lit them, and held them in his hand. The fireworks shot high into the sky and exploded into brilliant colors.
"Hello." Lin Xinhai called on the side: "It's time to eat, have you come over yet... hurry up, we arrived yesterday."
Chen Yuan looked over: "Who is it?"
"The fourth couple." Lin Xinhai said: "They are bored at home and want to come over and play."
"Are you here?"
"Arrived in town."
Chen Yuan went over and took a few cannons, lit them, and threw them out with all his strength. After a while, there was a "bang" sound, which was very loud.
Wang Peng and others also came out: "Where are the cannons?"
"That." Chen Yuan pointed to the woven bag on the ground. Inside were all large red firecrackers, as well as a large Torpedo King. The Torpedo King was about 5 centimeters in diameter... These big firecrackers are hard to buy now.
When I arrived, they were only sold in some small places.
Zhou Sheng took two torpedo kings, lit them, covered them with an abandoned iron barrel, and ran away.
A large group of people looked at the iron bucket from a distance.
Yan Xiaoxi and the others covered their ears and looked at the iron bucket curiously and nervously.
Chen Yuan and other men watched and waited for more than ten seconds. There was a muffled sound and the iron bucket flew up to a height of more than ten meters. Then everyone cheered and laughed in unison.
Everyone watched the iron bucket fly up and then fall down.
Yan Xiaoxi also held a big firecracker in his hand and looked at Chen Yuan: "Help me light it."
"Be careful." Chen Yuan helped light the firecrackers, and Yan Xiaoxi threw them with all his strength, throwing them a few meters away.
A group of people watched, laughed, and quickly dispersed.
The fuses of these big firecrackers are very long, and after another ten seconds, there is a "bang" sound, and a cloud of white smoke rises.
Chen Xin and Zhou Lan held fireworks, lit them and pointed them at the sky.
Groups of beautiful fireworks exploded in the sky...
The sky was completely dark and the fireworks were exceptionally brilliant.
'Beep beep beep...'
A car honked its horn outside, and Chen Yuan ran over: "Uncle Fourth."
"Why."
"Why did you come here?"
Luo Laosi got out of the car, opened the trunk, and said: "There is a traffic jam on the highway, otherwise I would have arrived in the morning, and I would have set off a few hours later than your master and the others."
"Fourth Aunt." Yan Xiaoxi ran over and shouted.
The fourth aunt responded with a smile and helped to take down the gifts from the car.
When Mrs. Chen saw it, she quickly came over to receive the gift.
Luo Laosi took out a round of cigarettes and gave them a round: "I heard the sound of firecrackers when I was still at the bottom of the mountain. You guys have been setting off the firecrackers for a long time. If there are any more, I will also go and set off a few."
"You're such an adult, be careful about wetting the bed at night when you set off cannons." Lin Xinhai laughed.
"Go away."
"It's time to eat." Inside the house, Father Chen shouted.
Lin Xinhai handed Luo Laosi a big red firecracker.
Luo Laosi lit it, threw it out, and followed the crowd back to the house. After a long time, there was a "bang" behind him, and the ground shook.
"Oh, this cannon is really loud."
“Specially bought the big firecrackers.”
There are three tables at home.
Chen Yuan went over to make arrangements for Yan Xiaoxi: "I'll have a drink with Master and the others, and you can sit at the same table."
Yan Xiaoxi nodded: "Don't drink too much."
"Don't worry, just drink a little." Chen Yuan said.
Zhou Sheng was pouring wine for Master and others, and Chen Yuan sat over.
Luo Laosi held the wine and took a sip first: "The 55-degree wine in Xinghua Village is good, very pure."
"Junya, drink less." Chen Yuandao: "At our table, brag more and drink less."
"Hahaha... OK, I won't encourage you to drink. Drink less. The Chinese New Year will be celebrated tomorrow. By the way, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Where can I have fun here?" Luo Laosi asked.
"Visit the temple fair." Chen Yuan said, "Besides visiting the temple fair, there is nothing else to do."
"Hang on, hold on, here comes the hoof flower soup." Father Chen was still serving the dishes.
"How many more dishes are there?" Chen Yuan asked.
"Two more."
Chen Yuan went over and helped bring out the dishes. There was a pork elbow and a boiled oyster.
Oysters are placed in a large pot in an iron basin. Each table has a large basin. The table is full of vegetables and cannot be placed on it, so it can only be placed on the stool next to the table.
Chen Yuan first brought some oysters to Yan Xiaoxi and some water for her to dip them in.
"Hey, boss, you are too partial, why don't you bring me some water for dipping?" Chen Xin shouted.
"Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing." Chen Yuan said and went back to his uncle's table.
Zhou Sheng poured wine for everyone and looked at Chen Yuan: "Where is the dipping water?"
"Kitchen." Zhou Sheng trotted into the kitchen and brought Chen Xin water for dipping, which made Chen Xin very embarrassed.
"This is Dongpo pork elbow." Lin Xinhai took a piece of fat pork elbow and tasted it: "It's really good, fat but not greasy, it melts in your mouth."
"This elbow has been steamed all afternoon." Father Chen finished his work and sat over.
"It tastes good, better than what we cook in the hotel over there." Luo Laosi shook his legs: "Isn't it said that Sichuan is warm in winter and cool in summer? This is too cold."
"Who told you that it's warm in winter and cool in summer here?"
“I watched it online.”
"Can you trust the news on the Internet?" Chen Yuan said and raised his glass: "Let's have a clink. This is the Chinese New Year, and the atmosphere will be heated up."
"Go one."
It's dark and the mountain is very cold.
Take a sip of wine and your body will feel warm.
"Everyone should eat vegetables. Drink in moderation and eat more vegetables." Father Chen greeted.
