Chapter 186: The Thirtieth Year of the Chinese New Year's Eve

Chinese New Year is a good thing, and this is true no matter when it is said.

The previous days were not as good as they are now, but they also yearn for the New Year, because there is sugar and meat to eat during the New Year, and the family members who work hard outside will also come back, and the family will reunite for the New Year, eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, full of atmosphere, eating well, dressing well, and this happiness index will also go up.

Of course, the days are different now.

The material life has gone up, and the sense of happiness has faded a lot.

Sometimes you can experience it when you sit on the sofa and watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV, there are just a few people coming and going, boring and complaining, that there are few good programs.

The most annoying thing for the New Year is to go to relatives, if it is in the county, it is fine, at most a few steps, but if it is separated by an urban area or several provinces, it will be more sad.

Between relatives, they are usually cold, they don't come to the door for half a year, and when it comes to the New Year's holidays, they get together to greet each other and be polite to each other.

Especially some leftover girls who are a little older in the family, when they meet a bunch of relatives such as aunts and aunts, they will urge you to fall in love and get married quickly.

You said that you finally got married, and in another year, they will ask you whether you have succeeded in your career, what kind of husband you married, how much money did you make, did you buy a house and a car?

In short, visiting relatives during the New Year is boring in Fang Ning's words.

But this year still has to be passed, and it is impossible not to live the New Year!

The traditional Spring Festival of the Chinese likes to celebrate the New Year, likes the crowd to be lively, and likes the red and hot atmosphere.

And Fang Ning's family was no exception, they had been prepared for a long time.

The red lanterns on the doorpost are hung high, the Spring Festival couplets are pasted all over the eaves, and the inverted blessing characters are pasted on the door, beaming with joy.

Everyone on the street had happy smiles on their faces, and they would look at Fang Ning's family with envious eyes when they stood outside, and sighed, "Rich people!"

"The lantern hangs high!"

"Move a little further to the left!"

Dad Fang instructed Fang Ning and Fang Wei to hang the few remaining red lanterns on the wall, and after they were turned on, they lit up, and the red halo scattered and lit up all around.

Fang Ning kept breathing, both hands were in his pockets to keep warm, just now his fingers were fiddling with the lantern fasteners for too long, they were almost frozen, and they were stuffed back into their pockets to keep warm.

He squatted on the steps of the corridor, "Dad, have you bought our New Year's goods?"

"Bought it!" Fang Dad said: "How much should be prepared and put on the table, when the relatives come, at least there is something to entertain them, not too shabby." ”

The interior of Fang Ning's house has undergone earth-shaking changes, there are red Spring Festival couplets everywhere, and a large chandelier hangs in the living room, which is crystal clear.

"Tomorrow is the New Year...... Fang's father sighed.

"Then how will we spend this year, will our relatives come to our house for the New Year?" Fang Ning asked again.

"Grandpa is in contact with this matter, and it seems that he will spend it at our house. Dad Fang nodded.

Fang Ning squatted on the ground and counted with his fingers, "Then we have more rooms and beds to prepare, chairs, cotton slippers, teacups, ......."

"When you grow up, you have to worry more, and I'll leave this matter to the two of you!" said Fang's father.

"Okay!" Fang Ning and Fang Wei nodded at the same time.

Today is the night before the Chinese New Year's Eve.

After tomorrow, it will be another new chapter, a new beginning.

As a traditional festival, a table of meals naturally has to be made full, and too many meals are easy to cause waste, but these don't matter.

This is also a symbol of material abundance, in the old era when they were not warm and fed, they would definitely not dare to waste food like this.

Grandma and Mom, two god-believing people, spent the morning in the kitchen.

Fang Ning went in and took a few looks, and a big pig's head was fished out of the pot, steaming.

The pig's head that has just come out of the pot is placed on a cutting board, sprinkled with chopped green onion soy sauce, and then placed on a large plate, along with a plate of boiled shrimp and a bowl of rice.

"Star, what time is it now?" the grandmother asked her daughter-in-law.

"There are still ten minutes to sacrifice to Lord Chenghuang. ”

"Then quickly put the pig's head on it, don't slack off, sir. ”

Fang Ning's family also took the old man Chenghuang to the house, which is considered feudal superstition, but the two women in the family believe that there is a blessing from the gods, and others can't oppose it.

The temple of the old man of the city god was placed in the front corridor, three incense sticks, green smoke flew straight up, and the incense ash was more and more.

After the sacrificial supplies such as pig's head meat were placed, Fang's mother and grandmother pulled the family over to worship the master.

"Lord Chenghuang bless, bless my son's career well, drive safely, bless my daughter-in-law's health, bless my old man's prosperous business, bless your believers with a long life, bless my grandson with a good study progress, and get into a good university......" Grandma knelt on the cotton fan, folded her hands, and chattered.

There is such a thing as a god for believers, but there is no for those who do not believe.

Fang Ning has never believed it, and neither does his grandfather and father, but those who should be worshipped still have to worship and ask for psychological comfort.

East Street, White Dragon Temple Community.

Cheng Xi was lazily lying on the sofa roasting the fire, her egg-like smooth face was red against the heat, a pair of clear eyes blinked, her fingers pressed the phone, and the soft screen reflected her sharp face......

After reading the message of the class group, she thought about it, took a selfie, smiled slightly, and sent it to Fang Ning, and the message was attached: Happy New Year!

It didn't take long for Fang Ning to reply to the message, Happy New Year, so are you.

Cheng Ying walked out of the bathroom, washed two apples, threw one to her, and said bitterly: "Look at the nymphomaniac look on your face, your soul is lost, where is the tranquil Cheng Xi from before?"

Cheng Xiqiao's face flushed, "We are still friends for the time being......"

Cheng Ying quipped, "I don't think it will be long before that one is taken off for the time being." ”

Cheng Xi snorted slightly and did not refute.

"I've been a freshman for a semester, but why can't I even find a boyfriend?" Cheng Ying bit the apple, a little sad and angry.

If you want to talk about normal schools, there are more women and fewer men, but like their sports schools, the ratio of nine men and one woman can't find a boy who makes her excited.

"You're too ambitious!"

"It's not high?" Cheng Ying said, "I'm long past the age of a girl's fantasy, I don't require my crush to be a hero of the world, stepping on colorful auspicious clouds, wearing gold armor, as long as it's good to me, is this a high requirement?"

"I listen to Su Xiao, I like a person who shines, if you don't have that kind of glow in your eyes, it means that the person you want hasn't met yet. Cheng Xi smiled slightly, "One day you will meet someone who makes your heart flutter and makes you feel that everyone else is ruined." ”

"It's too difficult...... Cheng Ying sighed.

Fang Ning watched the brilliant fireworks on the back balcony, countless fireworks flew up from the stacked community, and exploded into beautiful fly ash at night.

The phone vibrated slightly, he read the message, and Cheng Xi sent a selfie photo.

The girl in the photo is as bright as a flower, with clear eyes, a quiet smile, and that charming, which constitutes the beautiful moment of this girl.

Fang Ning smiled brightly, his heart was full of Yiren's sweetness, he turned his head, the family got together to play cards and chat, lively and lively, and suddenly felt that happiness was nothing more than this.

"On New Year's Eve last year, the flower market was lit up like day, the moon was on the willow tops, and people were about after dusk.

On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still the same, and last year's people are gone, and tears wet the sleeves of spring shirts. ”

The sentence "the willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk" made this poem spread through the ages, and they all thought it was a love poem, but in fact this poem was written on the eve of the yuan.

Many people tend to only remember the front and ignore the meaning of the back.

Fang Ning savored it, "On the New Year's Eve this year, the moon and the lights are still ......"

The moonlight, which is as quiet as water, is sprinkled all over the ground, and it is finely colored.

This young man, who was hesitant and independent under the moonlight, suddenly looked back, looked at the lights of thousands of homes from afar, and actually gave birth to the illusion that time was in a hurry and never returned.

In the distance, the lights are dimly lit and the night scene is bustling.

Looking back, I still feel like I'm in tears.

……

In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu, and thousands of households always change the new peach for the old one.

The evening of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Every family wears new clothes and smiles, and even the puppies in the yard of the community are washed cleanly.

Fang Ning's house was very lively, and many relatives came.

The sixth aunt's family, Aunt Jin's family, Li Tiefei's sisters, as well as Uncle Xie's family, Xiaoye's family, and the second master's family......

There are too many relatives, and even Fang Ning's big house can't accommodate it.

They all came to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and the crowds were lively.

The situation of the Fang Ning family is getting better and better year by year, this is the jealousy in their eyes, everyone used to have their own Chinese New Year's Eve, but now it is different, the prototype of the family with the Fang Ning family as the core is forming.

These invisible sources of cohesion are inseparable from Fang Ning's increasing financial resources.

However, Fang Ning was willing to watch such a relationship take shape.

Without him, man is a social animal, this habit of lewdness soaked into the bones began in the matriarchal clan in ancient times, although now, human beings have stood at the top of the pyramid, no longer need to huddle together for warmth, but this habit still cannot be erased.

What's more, among so many relatives, he is considered a junior and underage, which means that he has New Year's money.

Among these dozen elders, most of them will give Fang Ning New Year's money, and only the Li family sisters who have just studied in college will not give red envelopes, because they really have no money.

After one night, Fang Ning said a lot of good things, and his mouth dried up, but this harvest was not cheap, basically every red envelope was at least 100 yuan when opened, especially the red envelopes of his parents and grandparents were the most lucrative.

Spring Festival Gala, Zhao Benshan is still active on the stage, many familiar or unfamiliar actors and stars appear on the big stage of the Spring Festival Gala, temporarily appearing, for them the Spring Festival Gala is an unspeakable opportunity, but for Fang Ning sitting in front of the TV, these are just TV programs that make people laugh.

On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone is facing life with a smile, even if an accident happens in the next second, they will definitely not be sad.

After all, if there is no hope left, there will be no tomorrow.

Grandpa took out a few bottles of liquor above 50 degrees, and the eldest aunt, sixth aunt-in-law, fine uncle, Fang's father and other men who could drink wine gathered around him.

The women consciously withdrew from this stage, leaving the most eye-catching stage for them, retreating to another fire table that had been prepared long ago, roasting fire, eating melon seeds, playing cards and watching TV, and by the way, betting on who would not fall in the end.

Fontaine asked Fang Ning why he didn't get involved?

Fang Ning said shyly: "A simple boy like me is not suitable for drinking. ”

There's nothing wrong with this, he's still young, what kind of wine is he drinking......

Fang Dandan, Fang Shasha and several of them despised together, "My dad can drink at the age of ten!"

Fang Ning snorted a few times and didn't answer.

After a while, Fang Shasha called him over to play cards and fight the landlord.

"Who is the landlord you are fighting?" asked Fang Ning, sipping melon seeds.

"Your sister!"

"Why are you scolding......" Fang Ning squinted his eyes.

"I said it's your sister Fangwei's landlord. Fang Shasha has a black line, absolutely he and he are not talking on the same channel at all, chickens and ducks talking.

"Oh, looks like you're losing pretty badly, right?"

Fang Shasha was surprised, "How do you know?"

"My sister is good at poker, plus you three are stupid like stupid roe deer, it doesn't make sense for her not to win. ”

"Who do you say is a stupid roe deer?" the three women raised their eyebrows.

"Whoever should be is. Fang Ning's dead duck had a hard mouth, snorted a few words, hugged his head and ran away.

The Li sisters came back from buying some supper and said to everyone, "It's snowing outside!"

Fang Ning and the others didn't chase and fight, they ran outside the corridor together, opened the window, and saw the snowflakes falling under the night, silently, under the refraction of the moonlight, you can see the snowflakes covering the ground thinly.

Many of the children who came out late on Chinese New Year's Eve to ask for candy had to return the same way, and those children who played dragon lanterns could only sigh at the falling snowflakes.

At the turn of 2011, everyone stopped their activities and stared at the hands of the clock.

"Tick-tock-tock-"

At midnight, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers sounded on time, and the originally silent town erupted with huge energy like a silent volcano.

In this short moment, the whole night was lit up, and the night turned into day, and the fireworks on the opposite side of the river were connected together, reflecting each other, and the undisturbed river surface was also alarmed, and there was a faint panicked sound of birds.

"Peng!"

Firecrackers and fireworks are dazzling, just to bloom the most beautiful scene in this last time.

All of them went downstairs to look up at the fireworks that were so brilliant that they turned into ashes of various shapes in the night.

Fang Ning's ears were filled with the noise of fireworks, and the slight smile in the distance was filled with happiness and joy on his face.

He smiled too, but he burst into tears when he laughed.

The text messages and messages in the mobile phone popped up one after another, all of which were words of good wishes such as Happy New Year.
