The four boys also said that grandma invited her and Huo Jinxi to have a New Year's Eve dinner together, and Jiang Meilan was so moved. Not wanting to let down the kindness of the old man, he nodded and agreed. On New Year's Eve, every household posted blessings at the door, as well as Spring Festival couplets and window grilles, and the whole village was shrouded in a joyous scene.
After Mrs. Shen and Lin Xiujuan had lunch, they began to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner. Shen Jianlin helped kill chickens and fish.
Old man Shen thought about it, and felt that tonight's New Year's Eve dinner must be sumptuous, but there seemed to be something missing.
After thinking for a while, I finally figured out that I made money this year, so I should buy a bottle of wine to celebrate, have a drink with Shen Jianlin, and buy some drinks for the children, so I called the two older children, Shen Zhishu and Shen Zhili, and went out.
Fu Bao also said that he wanted to go, so old man Shen naturally took her with him without saying a word.
However, as soon as Fu Bao said he wanted to go, Shen Zhiyi and Shen Zhile, who had been chasing Xiao Bai all over the yard, immediately ran over, wanting to follow, and very quickly grabbed his sister's hand from left to right.
As soon as old man Shen and a group of children walked out of the yard, they attracted a lot of surprised eyes.
These villagers also planned to go outside the village to buy some sweets and drinks. When they saw old man Shen suddenly, their jaws almost dropped in shock.
One of the young men said: "This...isn't this Uncle Shen? My dear boy, what kind of clothes are you wearing? It's so beautiful, I almost didn't recognize you just now, I thought you were blind! Uncle Shen, what are you wearing on your face? It's so fashionable!"
Old man Shen was wearing a black down jacket, flared trousers, and toad mirrors on his face. Isn't he just a fashionable old man
He has never been so fashionable in his life, and he raised his chin triumphantly, "The clothes on his body are called down jackets, and the duck down stuffed inside them are so warm! These pants are called flared pants, and they are very thick. The glasses are called toad mirrors, and they are the most popular styles in Hong Kong. Jianlin brought them back for us. He said that everyone in the city dresses like this.
"Hey, stuffed duck down clothes? Duck down can also be used to make clothes, really knowledgeable! And these glasses, really stylish!" The man gave a thumbs up, with an envious expression on his face, "Uncle Shen, you feel twenty years younger by dressing like this!"
"Hahaha...you really can talk!" Old man Shen was very happy to be praised, and once again felt that things in this city were just different.
When the other villagers heard that these were popular clothes in the port city, they all showed envious expressions.
They have heard of Hong Kong City. It is a big city, and the people there are always rich. They are richer than they are by many times, and the clothes do not know how many times better.
They have worn rough clothes all their lives, and they are reluctant to throw them away when they are worn out. They continue to wear them with some patches, and they have never seen such fashionable clothes. Return the down jacket... It looks warm when you look at it. Another day, ask the young people who work outside the family how much it is. If it is cheap, bring a few back.
The children are also wearing down jackets, which look light, unlike other children in the village who wear thick cotton and sweaters, which are as round as a ball, and it is difficult to stretch their arms.
The down jackets of the four boys are black, white and dark blue, and only Fubao's is pink, which looks cute. Early in the morning, Mrs. Shen was afraid that she would be cold, so she put on a newly knitted red hat for her.
