Chapter 311: Design
In a blink of an eye, it's the root of the year. Now that there are cars in the village, everyone is slowly preparing the New Year's goods.
The day before Chinese New Year's Eve, Boss Chen went back, mainly to deliver vegetables and New Year goods. On Chinese New Year's Eve, he and Luo Guihua were busy all morning, eating lunch casually, and only closed the shop at two o'clock and hurried back.
When I got home, Mr. Chen and everyone had already selected all the dishes, and they were almost washed and cut, just waiting for the evening to be made. Tonight, the two families cooked together.
Thinking that Chen Laoqi's house is a building, it should be brighter, so he still cooks at his house.
Boss Chen looked at the busy people in the courtyard, and felt a little uncomfortable, it seems that the house really has to be repaired, otherwise every Chinese New Year's Eve will cook at the old man's house, what about those sisters and brothers-in-law?
When Old Man Chen saw his eldest son and his family coming back, he greeted him. Seeing this, Boss Chen sorted out his emotions and joined them with Luo Guihua.
waited for a few sisters to come back with their families, and then everyone went to the cemetery with the paper cannons prepared in advance.
When they returned, it was still early, and everyone sat by the fire and chatted.
Ye Xiaofeng and Ye Xiaobo have also been married in the past two years. Ye Xiaofeng's daughter-in-law is called Pu Wenxiu, and the two have already given birth to a son, named Ye Jiaqi, who is almost a year old. Ye Xiaobo's daughter-in-law is called Xue Xiaomei, and she is now pregnant.
Zhao Kang also brought his girlfriend back this time, called Wu Jianlan, he met when he went to deliver goods to others, the two families are already negotiating the marriage date, and it is estimated that they will get married next year.
This is different from what Xiaoxi remembers. After being born again, many things have changed, and they have changed for the better. These changes are welcome.
Ye Xiaofeng and his family are working in Chengdu, and this is the first time they have brought Ye Jiaqi back. Chen Yuhao was very happy and curious when he saw this child who was younger than himself, so he wrapped around Pu Wenxiu and wanted to play with Ye Jiaqi.
At around four o'clock, Luo Guihua and Li Xiaoxia went back to the house to prepare dinner.
Today, stews, steamed dishes, cold dishes, and stir-fried dishes were prepared. The stew has long been stewed in the pot, then put the steamer on it, put the steamer in, and start preparing the stir-fry.
It was busy until five o'clock, and the two tables of dishes were served.
Aunt Chen sandwiched a piece of cold pork head meat and praised: "Well~ It's still a delicious dish of Guihua stew." ”
Hearing the compliment, Luo Guihuale squinted, "It's delicious, you can bring some when you go back, I have a lot of marinade this time." ”
"That's good, you can take it away when you're full, hahaha......" These meat and vegetables she marinated are delicious, and the ones sold on the street don't have this taste. Of course she was happy to hear that she could take it.
Luo Guihua's stewed dishes are all marinated with his own ingredients, and these ingredients are also produced in the space of the creek, of course they are delicious. Moreover, there are some medicinal herbs added to it, of course, I can't find this smell.
She bought two pig's heads this time, as well as pork belly, pork legs, beef, chicken feet, vegetarian bean skin, fungus, peanuts and so on.
The pot in the county town is small, and the fire is not good, so in order to marinate these things, she has been busy since yesterday. Even this morning, they were still marinating things in the store.
In the past two days, the customers who came to the store to buy fruit smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen, and they were all hungry. Most of them just asked "what is it" curiously, and there are two people who are closer, and they will ask for advice.
Originally, some people passed by in front of the store, smelled the fragrance and came in, and learned that they were making braised vegetables, and asked Luo Guihua curiously if they could sell it.
There were a lot of dishes to prepare today, so the cold dishes were served with a cold pork head, braised beef and a braised vegetable dish.
The meal was finished lively, and it was already completely dark.
When the kitchen was cleaned up, the whole family set up a card table.
Xiaoxi was lying on the sofa, nibbling on braised chicken feet and watching the Spring Festival Gala boringly, and by the way, looking at Chen Yuhao.
She felt that the Chinese New Year was getting more and more boring now, and the family had been busy since a few days ago. Clean the house and make your own rice tofu, jelly or something.
Moreover, at that time, there were lion dances and other door-to-door performances, which I hadn't seen for several years.
"Huh" and "bang", hearing the sound of fireworks outside, Xiaoxi turned his head to look out of the window, only to see Zhao Lei and a few people playing outside.
Ye Xiaofeng and Ye Xiaobo were married after all, so they should be more stable, so they sat by the fire and did not participate. But after all, Ye Xiaobo has just been married for a long time, although he has a child, he has not yet given birth, and he has not yet experienced the responsibility of being a father, and he still has a child's heart. In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore and joined them.
Hearing the sound of cannons outside the house, Chen Yuhao raised his head curiously, threw away the toy, and was about to run out. The brook quickly drank him, put his shoes on, and followed him out.
But perhaps he would have come to him, and sat down by the fire with him, covering his ears in spite of his displeasure.
Half of the New Year passed in eating, drinking, and going from house to house.
This year's New Year is early, so the school starts later, and Xiaoxi they don't start school until the Lantern Festival.
Since Chinese New Year's Eve, Old Chen's mind has been full of repairing houses. Moreover, several sisters persuaded him that no matter what happened, he should still build the house in his hometown, after all, he would stay in the countryside when he was old.
The roads in the village have been repaired, and it is also convenient, just eat what you grow in your own vegetable garden, unlike in the county town, a green onion costs money to buy.
Boss Chen thought about it for a long time and discussed it with his family, and everyone raised their hands in agreement.
It's just that his family just bought a house in the county seat, and it is renovated, although he earned some during the Chinese New Year, but the balance in the deposit is not much. Take this money to repair the house, which is very popular. So, save money first.
There's one thing they can do first, though, and that's designing their house. Repair the house yourself, that's it, how to repair it, you have the final say.
Boss Chen found an old wall calendar and a few pens, put the back of the calendar up, and several people gathered around the table, discussing two sentences from time to time, and then took the pen to draw a few times on the wall calendar or write down their own thoughts.
Every day, when Boss Chen and Luo Guihua came back from closing the store, they would take out the wall calendar, and then everyone would discuss and revise it.
Although it was very late, Mr. Chen and his family were also tired all day, and everyone did not feel tired, nor tired, only happy.
The family is very active in designing the house, after all, it is what they will live in the future.
So, two days before they started school in the creek, the blueprints were finally completed. Boss Chen solemnly handed over the design drawings to Mr. Chen for safekeeping.
Old Man Chen collected the design drawings and carefully locked them in a drawer in his room, just waiting for the opening of that day.
