"How about Xiao Xu, my nephew's store is big, isn't the grade?"

At a small table near the window, Zhou Taiming and his sister-in-law sat side by side, with one hand on his sister-in-law's lap under the table, and asked his sister-in-law with a smug smile.

"So you're talking about this store, I know this store! Now I'm afraid there aren't many people in the whole county who don't know about this store, by the way, this store is really your nephew's?"

The little sister-in-law has a bit of an accent from Suzhou, which is very good, and her expression is full of surprise, for the unruly hand under Zhou Taiming's table, she only glanced at him and did not stop him.

"Oh, is my nephew's shop so famous now?"

Zhou Taiming seemed a little surprised, "I have been in the city all the year round, and I don't know much about the situation in the county." Of course, this shop belongs to my nephew, so can this be fake? Wait a minute, if my nephew comes, I will call him to come and toast you, and see if you still have any doubts!"

Zhou Taiming's words were very atmospheric, and he seemed to be a big boss when he sounded.

The little sister-in-law was a little shy and happy, "Why did you call him to come over and toast me? I'm not you......"

Zhou Taiming touched the hand on her thigh and pinched it, and at the same time raised an eyebrow at her, pretending to be hesitant, "Nonsense! Why aren't you any of me?" Wait for him to come, I'll let him call you Third Mother!"

"Third mother?"

The sister-in-law frowned.

"I'm the third in the family, he calls me the third uncle, and of course he calls you the third mother!"

Zhou Taiming handed her a cup of tea poured for her.

The little sister-in-law laughed, "You can pull it down! ”

It's just a pity that until they finished this supper that night, they didn't see Zhou An appear.

……

Time flies, in the blink of an eye 05 years came to an end, Zhou An's lobster shop was on holiday, on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, he did not go anywhere, the family had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, Zhou Taiming, Zhou Jian's father and son were there.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at his family is also extraordinarily rich, and chicken, duck and fish are definitely available.

Old chicken soup, beer duck, chopped pepper fish head, braised pork, braised soft-shelled turtle, braised pig's trotters, salt-and-pepper lamb chops, etc., a table of more than a dozen dishes, a table of eight immortals can not fit so many dishes, as a last resort, can only stack plates, full of a large table.

The local custom, Chinese New Year's Eve, to start the meal, to set off a firecracker.

In previous years, in order to save money, Zhou Taihu only put a small firecracker to mean that it would be blown up in a few seconds.

But this year, he was happy and specially prepared 50 thunderbolts and 5,000 small firecrackers.

His family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner this year was sumptuous, and many of the big dishes were made by Zhou An himself, with a strong fragrance, and they all said that the dog's nose was spiritual, which was true!

It is not false that there are many dogs in Zhoujia Village.

No, seven or eight dogs of all sizes in the village gathered one by one wagging their tails because they smelled the rich aroma of his family's vegetables.

During the Chinese New Year, the door of his yard was deliberately opened, so the dogs were able to sneak into his yard.

One by one, they stretched out their dogs' heads and licked their tongues from time to time, trying to sneak into his restaurant.

The yellow-haired dog named Shaochong raised by Qin Meixing was mixed in, limping around, his tail dragging on the ground, cocking and shaking a few times from time to time, and a long hara flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"Little sword, you can help me order the big one! I'll get the small one!"

Zhou Taihu glanced at Zhou Jian, who was standing at the gate and was eager to try, and casually handed over half of the cigarette in his hand and called him.

Zhou Jian's eyes lit up, and he promised to trot over and take the half of the cigarette.

When he lit the fuse of the thunder, and in the sneering sound, the thunder rushed into the air and suddenly exploded, the seven or eight dogs immediately fled in fright, and the yellow dog named Shaochong fell last, not only because of its short legs, but also because one of its legs was lame and could not run fast.

At this time, the five thousand small firecrackers ordered by Zhou Taihu also suddenly exploded, very loud, crackling like small lightning, and the tragedy was that it was blown up by many small firecrackers that flew over at the end.

Immediately, he let out a scream of "chirp" again and again, and fled wildly, while fleeing, he rushed out a bubble of urine and stayed in the courtyard of Zhou An's house.

By the time it escaped from the yard, its yellow fur had exploded into a mess and was slightly smoking.

No one cared about what happened to a dog, and after setting off the firecrackers, Zhou An's family, together with Zhou Taiming and Zhou Jian's father and son, sat around the table and officially started this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

One family, or two families, are smiling and raising their glasses frequently.

The atmosphere was intense.

……

The so-called end of the world at this time, is eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, naturally not only Zhou An's family, on the land of Shenzhou, at this time is eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, how many families?

Qu Yanyang was also having Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with his parents and brothers at this time.

Divorced, she wants a family reunion during the New Year, so she can only return to her parents.

Her home is very close to the county seat, and the conditions at home are not bad, the brand-new small second floor does not seem to have been built for a few years, and there are front and back yards, her parents' age is not big compared to their peers' parents, and her younger brother is about the same age as Zhou An.

There are also quite a few delicacies on the table.

Her family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner this year was relatively early, and at this time, it was almost over, and her mother took out two red envelopes that had been prepared long ago and prepared to give them to her siblings.

Her dad was still drinking.

According to the custom, when eating Chinese New Year's Eve, red envelopes are given to children, and parents always give a few words.

No, her mother started, and a red envelope was handed to her brother, "Tomorrow you will be one year older, today is the New Year, I won't say some things, the red envelope will be given to you! But one year older, in the new year, you will have to grow a little, don't let your parents worry about you anymore, can you do it?"

"Mmmmmmmm

Qu Yanyang's younger brother happily took the red envelope, and just buried his head in pulling out the big red banknotes in the red envelope to see how many there were, how could he have the heart to listen to his mother's preaching?

Hearing this, he immediately agreed, but the blind could see that he was perfunctory.

What made Qu Yanyang speechless was that his mother glared at him and let him go.

Then, the mother handed another red envelope to her, "Yanyang! This is for you! I know that you can earn more money now, more than me and your father, but today is the Chinese New Year, give you a red envelope, let you ask for good luck! You are a sister, there are some things I can't say much today, but I believe you know it in your heart! In marriage, you didn't give your brother a good start, you didn't set a good example, you said that you have been divorced for a few years, and you don't have any children, so you don't plan to find another one?

I'll tell you! If you're still alone this time next year, then don't blame me, a mother, for not allowing you to come back for the New Year! Don't tell me you can't find it! I inherited this good look from your father, I don't believe that no one usually chases you, you remember what I just told you! Don't think I'm joking with you! I will do what I say! If you still don't care, then your father and I will introduce you to you!"
