As soon as she said that the meeting was over, Yang Chunmei rushed to Zhang Xingming with an arrow step, hugged him into her arms and rubbed him, and said ruthlessly: "You little fart kid dares to fool me, and you make me cry, I will pinch you to death." ”

Miao Li also came over and pinched Zhang Xingming, saying, "And me, I'm scared to death." Everyone coaxed, laughed, Zhang Xingming shouted in Yang Chunmei's soft chest: "Second brother, help, let go, I'm a man, it's not you like what you're hugging me, I can't find someone like you to compensate." Everyone laughed again.

After rubbing for a while, Yang Chunmei hugged Zhang Xingming in her arms, suddenly kissed him on the face, and said, "The little leader still wants to find the right person, okay, you can't find my sister for you." Everyone started laughing wildly again, Zhang Xingming is so embarrassed, when will you grow up, Yang Chunmei, Lao Tzu is the first to push you.

The work for the coming year was basically arranged, Zhang Xingming and the second brother stayed in Cup Creek for another day, and the next night and the second sister checked the accounts of 83 years, and the business at the end of the year was even crazier in this month, which is also the consumption habit of the Chinese, saving money for the New Year and spending together, and the turnover of the last month has caught up with the usual two and a half months, making a lot of money. After locking the money in the safe, and explaining to the person on duty during the Spring Festival, several people took the evening train back to Nanfen together.

The shopping malls of this era are not like later generations, the more the New Year, the longer the business hours, the more the shopping malls in this era are also closed for holidays, and they will not open until the eighth and tenth days of the new year, and some even open after the fifteenth day of the first month.

The next day is thirty, get up early in the morning to paste the couplet window flowers, change new clothes, mother's shop is also closed, the family has eaten and sat together to watch TV and play poker, laughter, dad is alone in the kitchen to prepare Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, while doing while humming songs, Zhang Xingming inside and out, really happy, everyone is smiling, everyone is happy, this is his happiest thing.

After lunch, the second brother and the second sister Sister Ping came over, Sister Ping is now in junior high school, Zhang Xingming always runs out again, it is rare to meet, as soon as they meet, they grab Zhang Xingming and rub it, saying that the little one who has no conscience forgets you Sister Ping, forget who hugged you all day to play with you when he was a child, Zhang Xingming begged for mercy.

The second brother and the second sister Ping stayed for a while and left, the second brother and the second sister have their own circle of friends, and now one is busier than the other, just looking for a fun time during the New Year, Sister Ping was called away by her classmates.

Zhang Xingming sat there and thought for a while, he didn't have much contact with his classmates in his previous life, should he change it in this life? Forget it, let's talk about it after junior high school, it's too young now, it's not interesting to get together, and I can't play with them.

After two o'clock, Hong Fei led his sister to play, the two families have lived together for almost a year, and the relationship has come out, the child recognizes his relatives the most, and he runs back and forth to play, and it is not a part of it, saying that the new clothes worn by Hong Fei and his sister are still given by his mother, and the sister has a set of three people, and her family is still not very rich.

Zhang Xingming ran to the kitchen to get his father's fried meatballs, rings, and sausages that he filled and put on a large plate, and called that Hongfei and his sister to eat together, the little sister was still a little embarrassed, and she ate it with relish under Zhang Xingming's semi-compulsion, and she was very happy, and her mother looked at Zhang Xingming with such eyes.

The younger brother also ran over to eat, and while eating, he went to play with Hong Fei's sister, the two were the same age, but the younger sister was the first grade younger, and Zhang Xingming's brothers and sisters all went to school in advance, younger than their classmates.

Zhang Xingming was on the side, talking to Na Hongfei, while watching the two little Doudou play happily together, the child's happiness at that time was very simple, just a few glass balls can play happily for a long time.

The food was almost finished, my mother got up to see my father getting vegetables, and handed the checkers to Zhang Xingming, Zhang Xingming called the little brother them, the four of them played checkers, laughing and laughing from time to time, because one move to compete for a long time, because who walked slowly and screamed, this is the fun of childhood.

At half past four o'clock in the afternoon, my father called Zhang Xingming and his brother and brother to go out and release the whip and send the stove god, that Hong Fei said that my family also released the whip and led my sister home, and after a while her father came out with the whip, and the third sister followed behind, and the two families and two adults and six children came outside.

Two adults carried the whip with a long stick, and the six children shouted around the two strings of earth red that crackled and exploded outside, and shouted New Year, New Year...... Halfway through, Dad Sun also came out with a whip, Zhang Xingming helped light the fire, and there was a crackling sound, Daddy's second brother and second sister Sister Ping all went out, the eldest sister was on duty, only Daddy Sun Niang and the eldest brother were at home, and the eldest brother was on the night shift last year, and he was still making up for sleep at this time.

After the whip was released, the three families went home for a reunion dinner. Entering the house, the mother has already set the meal, is putting the chopsticks, the four of them sat down on the edge of the table, the mother and father poured a little wine, poured a bowl of champagne for the little brother, the family of five raised the bowl and touched each other, the younger brother shouted for the New Year, cheers.

Mom said that I wish our family would be better and better, Dad said that it must be better and better, my brother said that I want to go to university, and my brother shouted that I will also bake and bake, what is college? Mom smiled and said that it was delicious, and my brother called it roasted university, roasted delicious university, and added a sentence at the end: I don't want purple salt (cumin).

At this time, green vegetables just appeared in the Northeast in winter, and ordinary people couldn't afford to consume them, but Zhang Xingming's family must have no pressure, the meat is red, the vegetables are green, and my father's cooking skills are quite unusual.

At this time, people in the Northeast celebrate the New Year, generally grilled elbows, sauce pork feet, roasted sea knives, braised pork, skin jelly, vinegar ribs, scorched meat, chicken stewed mushrooms, sauerkraut and white meat, fried prawns, croquettes, spring vegetables, ten or twelve dishes, that's it, life was difficult at that time, and there were no green vegetables to eat, and the New Year was mainly to eat meat.

In addition to these, Zhang Xingming's family also has his father's intestines, egg sausages, meat sausages, mandarin duck intestines, pig's head cakes, blood sausages, and a dish, which my father makes every year, but Zhang Xingming has never seen anywhere else in his last life except for his own family, which is to boil the eggs and peel them, cut them into two cloves from the middle, and then chop the fine meat into puree to season, make it into something like meat sauce, put it on the cut egg, repair it into a circle, and turn an egg into two, and then steam it in the pot, steam it out and pour the juice, and it tastes very fragrant.

But now there are half of the vegetables on the table at Zhang Xingming's house, and my father doesn't make so much meat anymore, and he also makes a soup, which is rarely made by people in the Northeast.

While eating, Zhang Xingming thought, I have money, but I can't feel the mood of the New Year in the previous life, although I am happy and happy, I still feel that something is missing, I think about it for a long time, it is the feeling of poverty, the feeling of the poor suddenly seeing a table of meat.
