Chapter 50: Different Chinese New Year's Eve Dinners

Unlike the Li family, who celebrated the New Year with Hemeimei, this year's Wang family's New Year was terrible.

According to tradition, on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Wang family would have a New Year's dinner at Wang Nong and Zhao Huixiu's house. In the past, Wang Guizhi worked for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, while Wang Nong and Zhao Huixiu didn't care. However, this year, Wang Guizhi is not there, and it should be said that Wang Nong and Zhao Huixiu should cook by themselves. However, how can they be willing to do it when they are used to being lazy?

Old Man Wang, Mrs. Wang and others came to Wang Nong's house in high spirits, ready to celebrate the New Year happily. However, what they didn't expect was that when they entered the door, the dirty and messy picture in front of them made them wonder if they had gone to the wrong house.

The dishes that hadn't been washed in a long time were piled up in the sink, and the house was littered with unwashed clothes, and there was a faint smell of sweat, and packaging bags were everywhere on the concrete floor. The garbage in the trash can was also piled high, and a few flies buzzed around the trash can.

It's winter in the north, and you can imagine how dirty it is to be able to make flies that barely appear in this winter.

And the thatched pit outside the house seems to have been cleaned for a long time, and even if the windows are closed, there is still a disgusting smell.

Old man Wang frowned, he really didn't expect that the place where he ate the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner would be so dirty and messy. He took a few steps forward, but felt something step on. He lowered his head and picked it up, and saw that it was a smelly sock that had been dirty and black!

He sighed and went back to the table with the others. Zhao Huixiu, Wang Nong and Wang Yanbin had been waiting there for a long time, and the husband and wife still had flattering smiles on their faces, while Wang Yanbin looked very impatient.

If it's dirty, it's dirty, just eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Old Man Wang thought so, but when he saw the food on the table, he couldn't help but feel cold.

It doesn't matter if the house is not cleaned up, this meal is still very good. This cabbage and radish can be burned to a paste, and it is black and large. There is no chicken, duck and fish meat that should be in the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, only a few simple scrambled eggs, this beef and mutton can be seen at a glance to be bought in a delicatessen, and it smells a little, maybe it has been put in their house for a long time, and it is temporarily charged.

"I'm sorry, I'm too busy," perhaps seeing the dissatisfaction of Old Man Wang and the others, Zhao Huixiu found an excuse to explain, "Guizhi, this dead girl is not here, we can only settle for a while." ”

She also wants to put the blame on Wang Guizhi.

"Forget it," Mrs. Wang sighed and beckoned when she looked at her unfinished appearance, "Let's all sit down and eat." ”

She knew what Zhao Huixiu was like, so naturally she didn't want to say anything more.

Liu Xinmei and Zhao Huixiu quarreled fiercely, Rao is her, and she can't stand the decadent appearance of this big brother's family.

She sat down in her seat and proposed: "If you don't know the beginning of spring, I will give you the two little piglets in the family, if you raise them well, you can also have a litter of pigs at the end of the year, and you can sell them for a lot of money." ”

Zhao Huixiu is so lazy to eat, how can she be willing to raise it herself?

And she knows that she can't just be greedy, if she directly sells the little piglets or raises them to death, it will be very troublesome.

She waved her hand and said, "Xinmei, I know you have good intentions, but what's the use of you giving it to me? I don't have much time, I'm very busy, Bin Bin has to go to school, and the child's father has something to do." Besides, our family usually raises sheep, what kind of feed this pig eats, we still have to think about it, it's too troublesome. ”

The more Zhao Huixiu thought about it, the more she felt that Liu Xinmei had bad intentions, why didn't she have this heart when she usually quarreled with herself? She must have wanted to see their family's jokes! This mother-in-law didn't say anything, it must be her attention!

Zhao Huixiu thought so, and actually began to complain about the irrelevant old husband Wang: "Mother-in-law, you are really, Wang Confucianism has that spare time, do we have it in our family? There are only four people in our family, but there are five of you." And after my previous child was born, why didn't you help us take care of the child? Our family is the eldest, you do all the children for the second family? This is too partial, is it not that in the future, the family property will not be divided into our eldest brother's family?"

Zhao Huixiu never thought through her brain when she spoke, but now she actually told everything about the division of family property, which made the entire Wang family stunned.

"This, this ......" Mrs. Wang's hand holding the chopsticks kept trembling, she didn't expect that something that had nothing to do with her would actually scold herself, and what did she say about dividing the family property, was she cursing them to die early?

"Zhao Huixiu, how do you speak?" Seeing Zhao Huixiu talking to Mrs. Wang like this, Liu Xinmei was angry, and her own kindness was all regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, "If you complain about me, forget it, just when I want to be a bad and good person, what do you say about our mother-in-law? Look at you, the house is not cleaned up, it smells worse than a pig's nest." Let us eat this at Chinese New Year's Eve, the last time you came to my house, I did my best to burn a lot of delicious food, and you treated us like this? Mother-in-law saw you like this and didn't say a word, why did you start complaining about her? Are you worthy?"

With Zhao Huixiu's character, how could she give up when she heard Liu Xinmei say this?

She sneered, crossed her waist with one hand, pointed at Liu Xinmei with the other, and foamed at the mouth for a while: "Why am I not worthy? Isn't what I said the truth? I just said why are you so kind to give our piglets, it turns out that you just want to provoke the relationship between us and our father-in-law and mother-in-law! Liu Xinmei, why are you so scheming that you come to Wang's house and don't go to other people's houses? Chengxin has come to harm our family, right? You are a broom star!"

Liu Xinmei is also quick-tempered and upright. Hearing Zhao Huixiu scolding herself as a "broom star", she couldn't help it. As soon as she dropped her chopsticks, she stood up and began to scold Zhao Huixiu: "I'm a broom star?" Zhao Huixiu, why don't you look in the mirror to see what you look like? I gave birth to a girl, and when I saw that she was a girl, I threw her in the trash. When you have a son in the future, and no one helps you take care of the child, you remember that Wang Guizhi's daughter is here, right? I've never seen you treat your daughter like this, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, why do you only hurt your son?"

"Isn't this daughter raised like this?" Zhao Huixiu was anxious when she heard Wang Guizhi, thinking that if she hadn't run away from home, would she have been left behind by the Wang family?

"You have to raise a dog to death," Liu Xinmei couldn't help but feel sorry for her when she thought of what happened to Wang Guizhi, she had long felt that this child was very pitiful, "Thanks to her sensible and competitive, she was not tossed to death by your biological parents." She was admitted to college, and your son's uncompetitive one stole the money she earned from her part-time job to buy a bicycle!

"Why is my son not angry?" As soon as Zhao Huixiu heard that her son was talking about her, she was so anxious, "My family Bin Bin will make a lot of money in the future! How can you curse my son like this? Are you not used to our family?"

"Can't get used to it? Who is used to seeing your home like this?" Liu Xinmei scoffed at Zhao Huixiu's words, only thinking that this person was ridiculous.

"Enough, stop arguing!" Old Man Wang, who heard the quarrel for a while, finally couldn't help it, and stood up to let them be quiet.

He glanced at Zhao Huixiu coldly, only feeling that his daughter-in-law was hopeless, and he really didn't know why he agreed to her to come to the Wang family in the first place.

"There's nothing to eat in this meal, old woman, Ah Ru, Xinmei, let's go back," Old Man Wang stood up, hugged his daughter-in-law who was trembling with anger because of Zhao Huixiu's words, and said, "I can't have a good time this year, alas." ”

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was not finished in the end, and few people moved chopsticks, and finally dispersed unhappily.

On the other hand, in Li Haoqiang's family, the three of them are happy and harmonious.

"Eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner," Wang Guizhi smiled and brought the last dish, "Dad, Mom, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year!" Fan Xiuman and Li Haoqiang glanced at each other and laughed in unison.

This Li family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is too rich. There are lamb chops, pork knuckle, beef, and a variety of nuts and sweets on top.

"Gui Zhi, I've gained a few pounds when you come back," Li Haoqiang pretended to blame, "Next time, burn less, and burn my high blood cholesterol again!"

"Then don't you just eat it?" Fan Xiuman gave him a roll of his eyes, and then sandwiched a piece of braised pork to Wang Guizhi, "Guizhi, be good, don't listen to him, you can cook as many dishes as you want, Mom won't stop you, and I want to learn some crafts from you!"

"That's right, Guizhi, just the last time Leader Guo came over, the fish stew you cooked was really delicious, where did you learn it?" Li Haoqiang thought of the delicious fish stew before, and couldn't help asking.

Wang Guizhi knows these dishes, naturally he learned them in his previous life. But she couldn't say that, so she found a reason to prevaricate.

"Dad, Mom, I learned from my roommates, and one of my roommates is from the Northeast," Wang Guizhi smiled and said unhurriedly, "Many people in the dormitory are from other places, so I specially asked them what they learned and came back to cook for you to eat." ”

"You kid, you're really sensible. Fan Xiuman praised again.

A reunion dinner has passed, and it is almost time for the Spring Festival Gala to be broadcast.

The whole family was happily lying on the sofa, watching the program on TV, knocking melon seeds, so lively.

Wang Guizhi has a small appetite and eats less. After sitting for a while, she wanted to get up and do something.

Fan Xiuman stopped her and asked, "Guizhi, what do you want to do?" Sit down and watch TV together." ”

"Mom, I want to make a few dumplings," Wang Guizhi said honestly, "I can eat another meal of mutton dumplings every few days." ”

Li Haoqiang listened, only felt that this child was diligent and capable: "The Spring Festival Gala has begun, you make dumplings again, but you will miss this wonderful program, and it is all Chinese New Year's Eve, why are you still busy with this?" ”

Wang Guizhi thought to herself, she had watched the Spring Festival Gala in her previous life, and she could hum a few tunes in it!

But she didn't say it, and she was embarrassed to disobey them, so she sat on the sofa and watched the Spring Festival Gala with them.

Is there their laughter in the house, Li Haoqiang looked at the warm home now, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, very satisfied.

At 0:00, the host of the Spring Festival Gala faced the national audience in front of the TV and wished everyone a happy New Year in unison.

This is the first Spring Festival that Wang Guizhi has come back, and she thinks of Li Yongchang again.

She said to him in her heart, "Happy new joy" and hoped that her blessings would reach him.

"Ahh ”

He didn't know why, he remembered Wang Guizhi.

Li Yongchang called home, and the call went through, and it was Cheng Xiufen who answered it.

"Hey, Mom, it's me, Li Yongchang," Li Yongchang is still in the army, but today is special, their camp has a day off, "Happy New Year!"

He chatted with Cheng Xiufen for a while, and then inadvertently asked Wang Guizhi how she was.

"You mean Wang Guizhi," Cheng Xiufen saw Li Yongchang mention Wang Guizhi, and naturally knew that he did not resist her as he did at the beginning, but was slowly accepting him, and was very happy, "That little girl's book has been successfully signed again! It will be published soon." ”

After a pause, she said complacently: "This is all your credit, son, if this book wins the award, you will also become famous!"

Li Yongchang was naturally very happy when he heard that Wang Guizhi's book had been published. However, he didn't show it, but said lightly: "It's not my credit, everyone who is a soldier has those things, she writes them well." ”

"It's a pity that her family is too poor. Cheng Xiufen shook her head, every time she thought of this, she felt pity.

"Mom, I'm not suitable for her," Li Yongchang praised Wang Guizhi by retreating, "Don't think about her." ”
