Chapter 132: New Year's Greetings to Each Other

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, except for Liu Baiquan, the Liu family stayed at home, and Liu Yujin and his wife went to the county seat with all six children. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The first one to go was the old village chief's house, bringing two bottles of wine, a cigarette, two boxes of pastries, and a grass bastard fish weighing more than ten catties.

The sons and daughters-in-law of the old village chief and the children are not there, and they each went back to their mother's house in the countryside to pay New Year's greetings in the third year of junior high school, but they have not yet returned.

The couple drank saliva, ate some melon seeds and pastries, and hurriedly took the child to say goodbye and leave. It is estimated that it is because Liu Yujin has been sending rice and vegetables to the old village chief's family for such a long time, and he also sent quite a lot of New Year's goods at the end of the year. The old wife of the old village chief's family was grateful! The enthusiasm made Wang Hongying and Liu Yujin really unable to sit still before proposing to leave. The old lady pulled them and didn't let them go, and they were not allowed to leave until they had breakfast, but Wang Hongying made an excuse to run away. When she arrived at Xiang's house, facing Director Xiang's lover who didn't like to talk much, Wang Hongying felt much more comfortable.

During this year's Spring Festival, there are many varieties of fruits that can be bought in the market, in addition to apples and oranges, many of them come from the south. Bananas, mangoes, grapefruits, citrus, oranges...... Liu Yujin weighed ten catties when he saw everything.

I saw to the director's lover that in addition to the fragrance of grass, the rest were fruits that everyone carried in their hands, and Brother Liu also said that he would go down a few more times, and there were more outside. He was shocked: "There are only a few people in the family, how can you buy so much? The three children don't sleep at night, and they can't eat much!"

Junfeng looked at him and his mother with a constipated face: "Mom! Who wouldn't sleep at night and eat only fruits? ”

Xiang the director's lover turned his head and winked at Wang Hongying, crooked his mouth, and made a grimace, Wang Hongying snorted and laughed. Only now did she realize that when Director Xiang's lover was not familiar with people, he had a serious face, and he didn't like to laugh or talk. Once this is familiar, it is like the fragrance of her grass, which is very funny and funny.

After greeting the guests, Director Xiang's lover hurried into the kitchen to make breakfast for them. Their kitchen in the city is small, not as big as the kitchen in the countryside, and they can set up a small table for occasional meals. The hostess of the Xiang family was busy making breakfast, and Wang Hongying followed up to help, but she was a little crowded and unaccustomed.

"Big sister, if there are too many people in your house, will you suffer from cooking?"

"I don't usually have a lot of people in my house at once, only my nephews like to come over together. However, no matter how many of them come, I am not nervous, just get something to eat, and they will not be surprised. ”

"Hey, our rural kitchen is spacious, but it's not as clean as your kitchen. ”

"To each his own!"

"That's just as well!"

Although Xiangjia has gas, he is usually reluctant to use it, and most of them use briquette stoves. There are a lot of guests today, and there are quite a few of them, so I can only open the gas canister and use it. This was the first time Wang Hongying saw nothing, only the flames bubbling out, and he was very surprised. As if he had seen a ghost, he stared at it, and he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

The two women were chatting while doing things, Wang Hongying thought that Xiang's younger siblings were at work, and I was afraid that this New Year's holiday would not last for a few days. It is estimated that after going to their house on the sixth day of the new year, it will be time to go to work. Then he asked speculatively: "Big sister, you should go to work after the tenth day of the new year, right?"

Speaking of going to work, Director Xiang's lover looked a little gloomy, shook his head slightly, and replied: "Not necessarily! It is possible to have a holiday until after the fifteenth." Now there are a lot of foreign fabrics on the market, the price is cheap, there are many patterns, and the colors are bright, our fabrics are not easy to sell, and the factory has a backlog of goods. I don't know how to solve the above, but production is currently suspended. ”

"Oh yes, what can I do? Can I get paid if I don't work?"

"I can get a normal salary, but there are no bonuses, job subsidies, and other benefits. In fact, our salaries are all small, bonuses and various allowances and those benefits are the big ones. Hey, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to keep this job now. ”

"No, your city is different from our countryside, we have no jobs and no land in the countryside, we can grow food to eat, how can we starve people and die? You don't have a job in the city, you can't get paid, what can you do about this food problem?!"

Fortunately, my family's old shopping mall is getting better and better, and my income has increased a lot, otherwise I would really be sad to death. The main thing is that I have three children to raise, and that's the most important thing. ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Wang Hongying felt that the people in the city were not easy to be at this time.

Wang Hongying This is the second time to eat Xiangjia's dishes, she still feels very good, the dishes on the table are very simple, but refreshing, in the New Year, which is tired of eating big fish and meat, she has an appetite at a glance.

"This New Year's cooking should still be like the big sister, refreshing and delicious, this time I went home and I also did the same as the big sister, don't engage in those big fat meat, roast whole fish, look at a table full of dishes, in fact, the guests, there is no way to get chopsticks. ”

Although it is very tiring to cook so many small stir-fried dishes, it is the New Year all year round, so that the guests who come to the house can also have a good reputation by eating and drinking well! And this good reputation is much easier than Liu Yujin helping people pull livestock and pull people every day.

Cao Xiang raised his hands in approval! Xiang Xiang's lover laughed: "You are a little bit, what do you know? Raise your hands so high, nod so vigorously, like a chicken pecking at food!"

"I know, when I went to my grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings, my grandmother just took a table of cold dishes to fool people, and my sister and I didn't eat at all. ”

Wang Hongying's eyes glared: "You just talk nonsense!" Taoxiang retorted to her and mother: "My sister didn't talk nonsense, and she couldn't eat enough to go to her grandmother's house every year to pay New Year's greetings." ”

Guixiang felt embarrassed to discuss this matter in other people's homes, and wanted to solemnly reiterate: I don't know these two bear goods!

After breakfast, Director Xiang and Liu Yujin took a few older children to their homeroom teacher and principal's house for a New Year's greetings. Wang Hongying, Xingxiang, Taoxiang, and Caoxiang, mother and daughter, stayed at Xiang's house, and worked with Director Xiang's lover for lunch and waited for them to come back for dinner.

On the fifth day of the first month, I went to my uncle's house (Zhu's house), and on the sixth day of the new year, I took the whole family of the Xiang family to come over to play for a day, and the director of Xiang's family was full of praise for the scalding fish fillets in the mutton pot.

Xiang to the director's lover, while using a thin bamboo strip to blanch the fish fillet to eat, while constantly praising it: "This fish fillet is really good to eat! I didn't expect it to have no fishy smell at all, what kind of seasoning is this to put together to pickle?"

"I didn't put anything special, just added a little more wine and ginger slices!"

Wang Hongying did only soak it in light salted water with a little wine and ginger slices, and didn't put anything else (in fact, it was the grass fragrance that secretly added lemon juice). She didn't expect that the old girl was blindly commanding, and she really tasted different, which was more than a hundred times better than eating salted fish. Well, there is another way to eat fish in the future, which is really good.
