The New Year’s Eve dinner and the New Year’s Eve celebration are the things that farmers look forward to and pay most attention to throughout the year. As the saying goes, if two years are spent in one night, and two years are divided into two years, even those who are not very wealthy will save money. Money is spent decently on this day, which is not only a reward for the hard work of the family for a year, but also a lucky draw, so that life will be better in the future.

Fang, Zhi'er and Jasmine were all busy in the kitchen. While helping, Hehua assigned homework to the two boys at home and said: "This is the New Year's Eve dinner. Don't make any trouble here. Go set the table in the house and finish the meal tonight." I want to think of a good name for each dish that will be auspicious for the New Year's Eve dinner. When we eat later, whoever has the best name will get lucky money from my second sister this year."

After hearing this, Shuanzi immediately called out: "Second sister, the eldest brother has read so many more books than me, so he must win."

Bonin also curled his lips and said, "There's no glory in winning this kid. I won't come."

He Hua glared at Boning, and had no choice but to turn back and coax Shuan Zi: "Then you go into the house and come up with names. If you can come up with a good name for each dish, the second sister will give you lucky money."

After hearing this, Shuanzi immediately cheered and went into the house. Bonin went in and set up the largest tabletop in the house and brought several cold plates that had been placed.

When Mrs. Fang saw that the dishes were almost ready, she gave the rest to Zhi'er and Jasmine, washed her hands and washed the rice for cooking. On New Year's Eve, it was important to make gold and silver rice, which actually meant half rice and half millet. The steamed rice is called "gold and silver, full of gold and silver" in order to win praise. In addition to eating it when having the New Year's Eve dinner at home, a separate bowl is also served on the table, which is called the next New Year's Eve meal. , in order to have enough food at home every year.

There are peanuts, melon seeds, longan, jujube and other items on the table in the room, as well as home-steamed red jujube steamed buns and pastries bought in the city. Chapter 211 New Year's Eve Dinner.

Before it was time to hold the lanterns, the New Year's Eve dinner had been prepared and the table was full. Zhu Yongxin stood up and sat on the main seat first, then invited the whole family to sit down. Shuanzi pointed to the dishes on the table as if he was offering a treasure and said: "Braised in soy sauce" Naturally, there is an abundance of fish every year. This smoked chicken is called Jixiang Ruyi, the water spinach ball soup is called Tuan Tuan Yuan, and the tofu soaked with spinach is called Jin Yu Man Tang... "

Shuanzi ordered the dishes one after another with his chubby hands with small swirls, and he seriously gave them auspicious and appropriate names, and then looked at the lotus as if waiting for praise.

He Hua looked at the table and then at the bolt, and saw that Xiao Xiu behind him was smiling suspiciously. However, she looked at Xiao Xiu's eyes and didn't say anything clearly. She just smiled and said, "Okay, let's give it a name." That's right, the second sister keeps her word and will give you the new year's money after midnight."

"Oh, great" Shuanzi cheered immediately.

"What do you want to do with the money?" Hehua asked.

Shuanzi said loudly: "Save it to buy delicious food for your nephew. Brother said that my sister-in-law is going to have a baby. When the baby is born, I will be an uncle."

After hearing this, Xiaoxiu's face turned red. She stretched out her hand under the table and pinched Bo Rong, but she was reluctant to pinch too hard. It seemed like she pinched lightly, and was immediately held by Bo Rong. Handed.

After hearing this, Mrs. Fang laughed happily. She stretched out her hand to touch Shuanzi's head and praised: "My good son, you are so sensible. Mom also gave you the lucky money this year. Don't spend it arbitrarily. You will have to wait for next year to do something." As an uncle, you have to set a good example."

Zhu Yongxin picked up the chopsticks, took a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth. After swallowing it, he said: "It's time to eat. After today, you will all be one year older. Nowadays, the days are getting better and better. You are younger than your mother and I." Much happier.”

He Hua raised her hand and put the two chicken drumsticks on the plate into Zhu Yongxin and Fang's bowls respectively and said: "Mom and dad are the hardest workers in the family now, but when we all grow up, the days of happiness for mom and dad will come later."

Fang subconsciously put the chicken legs in the bowl of Shuanzi, but Zhu Yongxin put the chicken legs in his own bowl into Fang's bowl and said, "You have suffered a lot with me these years, and you have suffered a lot of grievances." , I understand in my heart, but it was not until this year that I straightened my back for you and no longer asked you to continue to wrong yourself. I hope it is not too late. Our good days are yet to come."

After saying these few words, Ms. Fang's eyes turned red, and she wanted to push the chicken drumstick back to Zhu Yongxin. Her voice was slightly choked and she said, "What are you talking about between the two of you? What's the point of being aggrieved?"

Shuanzi had already grabbed the chicken drumstick, but he turned his head and saw that Zhu Yongxin and Fang were still pushing the other drumstick. Seeing Hehua looking at him encouragingly, he reached out and put the drumstick that was put to his mouth into Zhu Yongxin's. The bowl said: "One for each father and mother."

Borong hurriedly changed the subject with Shuanzi's words and said: "That's right, now that our family has raised so many chickens, it's not difficult to stew chickens to eat. Parents, just eat them. You haven't been able to support this family for so many years." It’s easy, now that we are all grown up, you can worry less and enjoy more blessings.”

Xiao Xiu also smiled softly and said, "Mom and dad, just eat." Then she reached out and picked up a chicken wing and put it in Zhi'er's bowl. "Aunt Zhi'er, you can eat too." Then she looked at Liangzi and said , "Liangzi, don't treat yourself like an outsider. Use your chopsticks to eat whatever you like."

Hehua poked Boning and said, "You are next to Brother Liangzi, don't just eat for yourself."

Liangzi quickly said: "You don't need to take care of me alone. Originally, I didn't consider myself an outsider, but after you gave me such special instructions, I feel like an outsider."

He Hua immediately pouted and said, "It was a mistake for me to take care of you. From now on, I should take care of you just like I did for Bonin and Shuanzi. Let's see if you still say that I treat you as an outsider."

Everyone at the table was amused by He Hua's words, and the slightly sad atmosphere suddenly became joyful. Everyone was chatting and laughing while eating. Liangzi picked up the wine glass and stood up and said: "Today is the New Year's Eve dinner. I shouldn’t have mentioned the wine first, but since I said I won’t treat myself as an outsider, I’ll take advantage of today’s table of food and wine to toast my second uncle and my second aunt. Having lived here for more than half a year, to be honest, I already feel like this is I'm home, thank you to my second uncle and my second aunt for not treating me as a guest. This really makes me feel more at ease. Thank you." After that, he raised his hand and drank the wine in the glass.

Zhu Yongxin and Fang also had a drink. Zhu Yongxin waved his hand to ask Liangzi to sit down: "My family just sits and talks when eating. There is no other good thing about our family. We are all honest and treat people honestly." You are a good, down-to-earth and progressive boy who is doing your job here, and you are destined to be with our family."

Liangzi smiled at Zhu Yongxin, but did not sit down. He filled himself up with wine, raised his glass and said to Hehua: "Hehua, thank you for all the things you have done for me. Although you never take credit, I can't I don’t take it to heart, I have really thought about what you said to me, and I decided to go back next year to get rid of the old house, and next year I will move to Qijia Village and be neighbors with your family."

Hehua heard that he was paying tribute to her, and quickly stood up and said: "Brother Liangzi said this, I can't stand it. I don't know how to drink, but I have to drink the wine that brother Liangzi toasts. I sincerely welcome you to come and be my neighbor." .”

Liangzi raised his glass and said, "I did it, you can do whatever you want." He raised his hand and drank another glass.

Lotus really doesn't have much capacity for alcohol, especially the strong liquor from the north, so he didn't try to do it. He only took a sip and put down the cup.

This New Year's Eve dinner lasted from lighting time to dark. There were sporadic sounds of other people's firecrackers outside. Hearing the sound, Shuanzi couldn't sit still, as if he had a spike on his buttocks. , twisting around on the stool, wanting to go out and shoot the gun.

Mrs. Fang picked up another chopstick and put it into his bowl and said, "Why worry if you haven't finished the meal? I'll let your elder brother take you out to set off the cannon later."

Shuanzi felt itchy in his heart when he heard the sound of cannons. He was just about to put down the bowl and chopsticks and say he was full when he looked up and saw Hehua looking over at him. He quickly picked up the rice bowl and started to eat.

"Eat slowly. If you eat too fast, you will feel sick to your stomach when you go out." Hehua filled a bowl of soup and placed it in front of Shuanzi. "It will grow tonight. I heard people say that they dry the grain in the middle of the night." There are fireworks to be set off, so let’s go out later and let off our own firecrackers just in time to watch the fireworks.”

Shuanzi asked with big eyes: "Second sister, what is the dazzle?"

"It's fireworks, smoke from chimneys, flowers from flowers, not an eyesore," Hehua said with a smile, "Fireworks are shot from the firecracker into the air, and then they shine brightly like a flower blooming in the sky. When the time comes, you You’ll know it when you see it, it looks good.”

Bo Rong also nodded and said: "Yes, I also heard Jintang say that his father brought the fireworks back from other places. They were made by skilled craftsmen from the south and were given to his father by others. His father thought it was rare, so he It was sent back to my hometown together with the New Year's gift, but we here can't easily see it."

When Shuanzi saw that his eldest brother and second sister were talking so rarely, he was immediately attracted by this unknown thing called fireworks. He was not in a hurry to go out and set off the firecrackers. He sat and ate peacefully, for fear that he would be left behind by Hehua if he disobeyed. The family doesn’t take him to watch fireworks.

Mrs. Fang kept picking up vegetables for Shuanzi. This boy was just growing up, and now he had a huge appetite. When she saw him eating obediently, she said, "Hehua still has some tricks. It's strange to say that this boy just listens to Lotus." of."

Jasmine pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Let Hehua scare me, but now Hehua can talk better than my parents."

"How about you give him a good beating too?" Hehua stuck out her tongue at Jasmine, "But it depends on whether you are willing to let it go or not."

The New Year's Eve dinner was not eaten until the second watch. Everyone put down their chopsticks. After all the dishes were removed, Fang pushed Zhu Yongxin and said, "You go to your parents' place to play for a while. There is no one at home to play cards with you. You There is nothing to do if you stay at home. I will make dumplings at home. Remember to come back and eat dumplings at night."

Zhu Yongxin put on his clothes and left without refusing. Fang started making noodles. Jasmine and Hehua put the remaining food in the courtyard to freeze, and then started washing the dishes. Zhier and Xiaoxiu were joking while choosing and washing vegetables. Prepare to chop stuffing and make dumplings.

After washing the dishes and putting them away, He Hua washed her hands and was about to help knead the dough when she saw the door curtain lifted and Qi Jintang came in and said, "Hello, aunt, I'm here to see Bo Rong and go out to set off the firecrackers." He said he was looking for Borong, but his slightly smiling eyes were looking at the lotus.
