Chapter 834: Thanksgiving
"Son, it's time to eat!"
"Okay, come on. ”
Li Dong hurriedly said a few words, and then hung up the phone, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner of the Chinese New Year's Eve, his father and mother came back, he didn't want people to wait.
The meals have been served, a whole table of dishes, a full sixteen plates, in Dongshan, the number of plates of the Chinese New Year's Eve meal is particular, not only double, but also auspicious.
If there are few people in the family, it is usually eight plates and ten plates, and if there are many people in the family, it is generally sixteen plates and eighteen plates, either "to be smooth" or "to be sent".
If you want to say hair, now the family is already very hairy, so take a "to be smooth", everything must be smooth, smooth sailing, everything is smooth.
"It's so hearty. Li Dong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, in the past few years that my mother has been out, Li Dong doesn't know anything else, but his cooking skills have definitely improved a lot.
As soon as he sat down, the cell phone in his pocket rang again.
Li Dong sighed, it seems that tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is not to eat leisurely, from the afternoon to now, the phone has not stopped, one after another, known, unknown, domestic, and foreign, listening to foreigners in skimming Chinese to say good New Year, well, anyway, Li Dong feels weird.
Li Dong glanced at the caller ID, another strange number, Li Dong looked at the people around the table, and simply turned off all the two mobile phones, a big thing, wait for Lao Tzu to finish the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
"What are you doing standing stupidly, sitting, coming here is like coming to your own home, and you are not an outsider. Li Dong said to Lin Jing, Lin Hai and Hu Xue who were standing aside.
"Yes, yes, it's all your own family, what's polite, sit down. Wang Hongyan also greeted warmly.
Lin Jing and Hu Xue sat down at this time, Lin Hai went to the side to bring wine and juice, and asked, "Uncle, aunt, what are you drinking?"
"The thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, just once a year, of course, drink some wine." Li Zhongzhi said with a smile.
Wang Hongyan gave her husband a white look, and what she said was as if she didn't usually drink, but tonight was Chinese New Year's Eve, and she was happy, so she didn't stop it, and then said, "Pour me a little too." ”
"Okay. Lin Hai filled the wine glass in front of his uncle, poured a small half glass for his aunt, and then filled it for Li Dong, poured half a glass for his sister and Hu Xue, and brought a whole glass himself.
He didn't ask his sister and Hu Xue what to drink, the elders are above, and if they don't know how to drink, they have to take two sips, otherwise when the glass is raised, the elders will serve the wine and the juniors will take the juice, and it won't look like that.
After a table of people poured it, a bottle of wine was just at the bottom.
"Dad, don't be in a hurry to drink, say a few words. Li Dong saw his father's eyes shining at the wine glass, so he hurriedly said, for fear that his father wouldn't be able to wait to take a sip.
Xiaohai is holding Moutai today, and it is not an ordinary Moutai, it has been hidden for more than 15 years, and what my father used to drink was made by himself, or in bulk, how can it be compared with this? So as soon as he smelled the wine, his throat began to move.
"Oh, well, say a few words. Li Zhongzhi came back to his senses, and his gaze shifted from the wine glass to the other people present, "The days go by so fast, and you all grow up, Xiaojing and Xiaohai, you are what I watched grow up, Xiaoxue, you are my goddaughter, and I will marry Xiaohai next year, we will really become a family, as the old saying goes, there is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, if you want to become a family, you must have a fate, come, raise the wine glass, today, let's toast to be able to become a family." ”
"Okay!" Lin Hai applauded and applauded, then raised his wine glass, "We are destined to become a family, uncle, what you said is so good." ”
"Okay, don't be a sycophant, it's all your own family, you don't need it. Li Dong said to Lin Hai, but when it came to the 'fate' that his father said, Li Dong really believed it now.
Lin Jing and Lin Hai are neighbors on the same street, needless to say, Xiaoxue's family is from other places, strangers who can't be beaten by eight poles, but because Wu Shaohua came to Dongshan, came to work in the pharmacy, and finally met Xiaoxue, not only became his sister, but also married Xiaohai, isn't this fate?
While!
The six wine glasses touched together, although there was no spark, but it made this Chinese New Year's Eve meal lively and warm.
"Xiaojing, Xiaoxue, you eat, taste my craft. ”
After taking a sip and putting down the cup, Wang Hongyan couldn't wait to put vegetables into the bowl in front of Lin Jing and Hu Xue, for fear that the two of them would not be able to let go and be embarrassed to eat.
Hu Xue ate a piece of braised pork, then nodded violently, and said with a smile, "Well, it's delicious, godmother, you make it really well, you have to teach me in the future." ”
Lin Jing also put a piece in her mouth, "Well, it's soft and glutinous, sweet and salty, it's delicious." ”
"Haha, this is what I learned from an old lady in her seventies, the locals say that the ancestor of the old lady once worked as a royal chef in the palace and cooked for the emperor, and the food can be her secret, we cured the chilblains on her hands, and in order to thank us, she taught me this hand. Wang Hongyan said proudly.
"The imperial chef has cooked for the emperor? Then we are really blessed. Lin Hai smiled and said, "I want to eat it too." After speaking, he took a piece of chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's delicious, it's so delicious, I need to eat more." ”
"In the future, wait for me to teach Xiaoxue and let her do it for you every day. Wang Hongyan said.
"Hehe!" Lin Hai smirked when he heard this, and two red clouds floated out of Hu Xue's face.
After eating for a while, Lin Jing picked up the cup, looked at Li Zhongzhi and Wang Hongyan and said, "Uncle, aunt, I salute you, thank you for calling us, my parents have passed away for ten years, and you have made me feel at home." As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Rice, usually you can eat, wine, usually can drink, but on Chinese New Year's Eve, a table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but it has a special meaning.
Sitting here reminds her of her mom and dad, and reminds her of her childhood.
She hadn't felt this way in a long time
Lin Hai, who was giggling on the side, also quieted down when he heard his sister's words, and his sister and brother were connected, and he could feel his sister's mood at this moment.
"Xiao Jing, this will be your home in the future. Wang Hongyan's eyes were also red, women's sensual things, Lin Jing's hardships for so many years, as a neighbor, she saw them all, so she could fully understand the other party's words.
After Lin Jing finished saluting her uncle and aunt, she looked at Li Dong on the side, "Li Dong, I want to toast you too." ”
"Respect me, respect me?" asked Li Dong.
"Xiaohai is my younger brother, I am such a relative as him, before, he was a piece of my heart, always worried about his future, but since you came back, not only arranged a job for him, but also changed his person, let him from a gangster who has nothing to do all day long, to become human, cured my heart disease, I thank you" Lin Jing said seriously.
"Look at what you said, from childhood to adulthood, Xiao Hai has called me Brother Dong, this brother, can I let him call him in vain? Besides, Xiao Hai has the current appearance, which is also the result of his own efforts, if he is not angry, the company will be yellow in a few days, and it will get bigger and bigger?" Li Dong said, and then raised his wine glass, "Actually, you should indeed toast me, but not to change Xiao Hai, but to thank me for bringing Xiaoxue." ”
Lin Jing was stunned when she heard this, and then she remembered that without Li Dong, there would be no Hu Xue, "Well, you're right, I'll punish myself." ”
"Actually, it should be me who should thank you the most!" Hu Xue stood up and said with red eyes, "Godfather and godmother, Brother Li, Sister Jing, and Xiaohai, it was you who took me in, so that I am no longer lonely, no longer alone, I am ......" As she spoke, the whole person sobbed.
"Stop, stop!" Li Dong hurriedly said, "Good Chinese New Year's Eve, how can we all cry, we should be happy, okay, no one should respect anyone, all hurry up to eat, after eating to watch the Spring Festival Gala, set off firecrackers, Xiaohai, firecrackers are ready?"
"Alright, a whole truck!"
"Well, we'll watch the fireworks later!"
"Good!"
