Yan Ming also has a grandson with him, so at least they can be reunited on New Year's Eve, but Zhao Yixiong's family is shrouded in gloom. The domestic servants prepare meals according to New Year's Eve customs. Mr. Zhao, the old lady, the wife and Miss Zhao have no smiles on their faces.
, they sacrificed their ancestors hastily and left the domestic servants to celebrate the festival by themselves. The old and the young sat at the dinner table and were speechless.
Zhao Li didn't know what the meal was. It had no taste at all and just filled his stomach. When he sat down to watch the news after the meal, he saw the laughter and laughter everywhere on the TV. Compared with the lonely appearance of his own house, he felt depressed and uncomfortable.
I stopped watching the show and went back to my room with a cold face.
The old man was in a very bad mood, and Mrs. Zhao was not feeling well either. Thinking that her son and grandson were still in the detention center, she left unhappy.
Guo Furong had been trembling in fear. She waited until her parents-in-law left, then she dared to breathe and did not dare to stay in the hall, lest her parents-in-law said that she was not worried about her husband and son, and she and her daughter went back to their rooms.
The Zhao family's New Year's Eve was worse than the ordinary days before.
The Zhao family's unhappiness has nothing to do with anyone else. There were lights and colorful decorations inside and outside the capital, and various programs were in full swing. The whole country was immersed in the joy of the festival, and all ethnic groups sang and danced to celebrate the New Year.
There are lion dances and other activities in big cities, but there are no such activities in the countryside, but they also have their own traditional New Year's taste. Every household has New Year's Eve dinner around five o'clock.
The villagers of Meizijing Village eat their New Year's dinner very early every year. Some families even visit each other after the New Year's dinner, and then go back to watch the New Year's Eve.
Lejia was also busy with the New Year's Eve dinner early. After lunch, they started preparing, steaming what should be steamed, stewing what should be stewed, brazing what should be braised, and making various custom dishes.
Leba and Zhou Qiufeng cook traditional dishes. Leyun is responsible for cooking seafood by herself. She cooks lobster, shellfish, and isinglass first, and then sea cucumbers, crabs, and shark fins. Except for crabs, there are three to five portions of everything else, and she eats one portion in the evening.
, some are packaged and sealed, and can be opened and heated when you eat them tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, you have to make them temporarily every time, which is too troublesome.
On the day of the Chinese New Year, we also have to worship our ancestors, worship the gods, and receive the Kitchen God from the earth. Le’s father, Zhou Qiufeng, prepares traditional dishes and puts them on the table to worship the gods, receive the Kitchen God, and worship the ancestors. It takes at least half a day to go through the series of steps.
More than an hour.
Firecrackers are set off during the Chinese New Year in the countryside, and firecrackers are set off to worship gods. The sound can be heard one after another, and can be heard far and near, and the atmosphere of the new year is also particularly strong.
You can have New Year's Eve dinner at any time after worshiping ancestors.
The Le family did not eat first, but first packed up the supplies, cleaned the eaves and main room, fed the pigs, waited for the chickens and ducks to come back to feed, and closed the backyard door and gate.
When everything is ready, the family starts dinner. They use a hotpot as a base, put a stand in the pot to place the dishes, and change the dishes to whatever you want.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, ate some traditional dishes first, and then the seafood cooked by the girl. They ate sea cucumbers first, which tasted very good. The couple were not afraid of the little cotton-padded jackets making fun of their ignorance, and they enjoyed the meal very well.
After eating a small plate of sea cucumbers, we switched to crabs. Because crabs are cold in nature, Le Yun did not allow her father and Aunt Feng to eat more, and only gave each of them a small piece to taste. A couple said: "..." It's so delicious.
He was only allowed to taste a little bit, the little cotton-padded jacket deceived his father and mother.
Zhou Qiufeng, the father of Le, who still felt unsatisfied, stared at his girl taking away the plate, feeling melancholy in his heart. The girl must have deliberately let them taste it, and then refused to eat it, letting them watch the food flowing.
saliva.
After scattering the crabs, Le Yun brought the isinglass to the pot and let her father and Aunt Feng eat slowly while she held the bowl and gnawed the crabs.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, who was cheated by the girl, turned his eyes away from the crabs and tasted the third seafood dish. After taking a bite, he immediately forgot about his little resentment about not being able to eat crabs. The couple even had fish soup.
Nothing was left, and the melon was divided. The fourth seafood course was fried clams with green peppers. It was fresh but not fishy, crisp and tough but not chewy. It was so delicious that it made you want to devour your tongue.
After eating four seafood dishes, I was eighty percent full. I also had some green vegetables and traditional side dishes, and I was ninety percent full. I also had a very happy New Year's Eve dinner.
After the meal, I wash my hands, face and feet, and then serve fruits and melon seeds, squishing my own melon seeds, and keeping up the New Year happily.
During the Chinese New Year, children all get red envelopes from adults. Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, did not forget that incident. He also brought red envelopes when he served the melon seeds, and each person gave the girl a big envelope.
"Wow, there are two red envelopes this year. Having a father and a mother means happiness." Holding two thick red envelopes, Le Yun was very happy and eagerly opened them. She opened the first one and counted them: "Wow.
, nine hundred and nine!" Then he took another one apart and counted: "Wow, it's nine hundred and nine again."
The little cotton-padded jacket was holding the red envelope and laughed so hard that Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, couldn't help laughing. Look at the girl, she has tens of millions and precious stones, but it's like she has never seen money before. Who are you trying to deceive?
.
"Look how happy you are. Such a small amount of money is nothing compared to your worth." Dad Le was not afraid of making the girl cry and hit her.
"That's different. It's given by my father and new mother. It's very meaningful." Le Yun held the red envelope and said: "Humph, there is a father who is jealous that his girl has a red envelope but he doesn't. He is jealous. Such a big person.
I also envy my own girl for her future."
"I can't even envy you? The little cotton-padded jacket has grown up and has become overbearing and unreasonable." Dad Le touched his nose and accused his child of being overbearing and unreasonable.
"I'm so domineering. Who told me I'm your girl? I have to hide the red envelope so that no one will be jealous." Le Yun raised her head proudly, held a red envelope in one hand, jumped up happily and gave it to
Keep the red envelope in the bedroom for collection.
"If you don't even show me, is this still my little cotton-padded jacket?" The child grabbed the red envelope and ran away, and Le's father pretended to be sad.
Zhou Qiufeng watched with amusement. The father and daughter bickered every day, which was a lot of fun.
Leaving her father behind, Le Yun rushed back to the bedroom, put away the red envelope, took out the red envelope she had prepared earlier, jumped into the kitchen with her arms in her arms, and gave the red envelope to her elder: "Kiss Dad, I'll give you a red envelope."
, Don’t be jealous of your girl’s red envelope. Aunt Feng will have good luck with it. This one belongs to the younger brother, Aunt Feng will help keep it, don’t give it to dad. Dad may be jealous of his son and want to hide the red envelope.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Le’s father Zhou Qiufeng was dumbfounded as she held the red envelope stuffed by her child. It was not a red envelope, it was clearly a red brick!
With quick hands, Zhou Qiufeng folded the red paper and looked at it. She couldn't help but was stunned again. It was ten bundles! It looked like it was ten thousand and ten bundles withdrawn from the bank, and ten bundles equaled one hundred thousand!
"This..., Lele, this is too much." She slowly folded the red paper as it was. Judging by the thickness of the red envelope, Yueqing's was as thick as hers, so it should be the same amount, for the unborn baby.
The red envelope is slightly thinner, probably worth tens of thousands.
"Lele, you keep the money, your Aunt Feng and I have earned enough money." Lele's father was excited and sad. He gave such a thick red envelope because he was afraid that they would have no money to use, so he stuffed the money in this way.
give them.
"What's yours is yours, what I honor you is another matter. If you don't accept it, I'll go to the bank to make a transfer in a few days. Anyway, I know the deposit and withdrawal number at home."
"You little bastard, when did you peek at your bankbook?" Le's father glared. He is obviously a caring little cotton-padded jacket, but why sometimes he always makes people feel distressed one second and wants to fall out with him the next.
"When I was in junior high school, you took me to withdraw money and I looked at the passbook account number."
"You saw it once in junior high school and still remember it?" What kind of memory is that?
"Of course. Your sweet little cotton-padded jacket has an extraordinary memory and almost has a photographic memory. Therefore, don't let others see the passwords you set up. If others see it, they will remember it secretly. One day you will make your girl angry.
If you don't, I will steal your bankbook, take all your money, and change your mobile phone password so that you can't unlock it yourself."
Zhou Qiufeng couldn't stop laughing. Dad Le stared at the child who was openly threatening him. He held it in for a minute before squeezing his neck and said: "...It's terrible, are you still reasonable?"
"I'm reasonable to begin with. It's not my fault that I'm wrong. I'm my parents' caring little cotton-padded jacket. How could I be wrong?"
The girl was so proud that her little tail almost went up to the sky. Dad Le was immediately defeated: "Little cotton-padded jacket, you win again!"
"Brother Le, you have never lost in a fight with Lele. It's not a shame to lose to your own girl." Zhou Qiufeng poured cold water on her own man.
"Honey, I feel bad when I lose, please don't add insult to injury." Dad Le begged his wife pitifully.
"Okay, bring me the red envelope."
"Here." Dad Le handed the red envelope to the housekeeper without hesitation.
"For the sake of your sense of humor, I will try my best not to reveal your secrets tomorrow, so as not to hurt your heart." Zhou Qiufeng carried three bricks and sent them to the room for collection.
Dad Le rubbed the back of his head naively. Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year. He won’t be visiting relatives or paying New Year greetings. There are no guests at home, so it’s okay if he doesn’t give me face. Please give me face when there are guests.
Dad suddenly changed into a strict wife control rhythm. Le Yun laughed so hard that her face cramped. She was afraid that her laughter would damage her father's image of a great and loving father, so she went out to move tables and tools and prepare to make dumplings.
Set out the tools, use the coffee table as a surface to knead the dough, roll out the dough, and make dumplings.
Zhou Qiufeng collected the red envelopes and came back to help with Dad Le. They were responsible for stuffing stuffing and putting it on the steamer. The couple couldn't match the speed of the girl rolling out the dough. Zhou Qiufeng secretly blushed. She used to be a famous fast player, but now she was beaten by her own girl.
After a comparison, this is the back wave of the Yangtze River rushing against the front waves. The front waves were pushed by the girl's back wave and they all lay on the beach.
Dad Le said he was very calm. He had already seen how fast the little cotton-padded jacket was at work. He was not only proud but also proud. Such an excellent jacket was his girl, so she had so much face.
During the Chinese New Year, one should stay up past twelve o'clock to welcome the arrival of a new day.
Across the country, in urban and rural areas, people watching the New Year's Eve are watching the program and waiting for the midnight. The motherland is dancing with fireworks everywhere, and the whole world is celebrating.
At the end of twelve o'clock, countless people brought out fireworks and set them up, counting down silently. When the clock passed the last second of 15 years, the whole country welcomed the New Year. The sky was filled with colorful fireworks, spelling out dazzling characters, representing the tenth year.
