Chapter 522: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner
Tan Ziqing's home is in the nearby rainbow residential area, a four-bedroom and one-living room, the windows are bright and clean, the sofa furniture is neatly placed, and there is a pot of spider plants on the balcony that has just been sprinkled with water not long ago. Guan Xianxue's eyes widened and said, "Auntie's house is so warm and beautiful!"
Tan Ziqing was very happy, pinched her face and praised: "The child is so good, sit down and watch TV for a while, and Auntie will cook for you." "Turn on the TV, it's Chinese New Year's Eve, the screen is full of the same New Year Gala, the lines are gaudy, the song and dance without changing the soup is annoying, it's hard to have a program that can make people happy, or insert three minutes of advertisements every five minutes.
Guan Xianxue shrank into Liao Xuebing's arms, looking very attached to him.
Liao Xuebing finally had a conscience and asked, "Ziqing, do you have a medicine box here, Xiaoxue accidentally fell just now, you can help her check it." ”
Tan Ziqing glared at him with a look of disgust and led Xiaoxue into the room.
Lao Liao called Guan Muyun: "Brother, what are you fooling around, how much money has been sent this week?"
Guan Muyun smiled: "It's Teacher Liao, I wish you a happy New Year first, Brother Nan sent me 9,000 yuan, I can live a good life, I haven't worked much during this time, and I'm embarrassed to ask him for more." ”
"That's good, don't use the money indiscriminately, give it to the family, anyway, your family's life is not rich, save more if you can." By the way, what about your sister?"
Teacher Liao rarely took the initiative to mention his sister's affairs, Guan Muyun also said that he didn't like it, so he was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Xiaoxue misses you, you asked me last time why you didn't write to her, but I don't know how to answer." She's at home. Why don't you wait and let her call you?"
"No need, Xiaoxue is next to me. Just now, she went shopping with your mother and got lost again, and I found her. It is estimated that your mother is very anxious now, you tell your mother that Xiaoxue is celebrating the New Year with me, so that she doesn't have to worry about it. ”
"Ha, Xiaoxue must be happy like this. ”
Tan Ziqing took Guan Xianxue out of the room and said, "How can you take the child, it's too careless." The injury is in the lower back, a little red and swollen, but I've already helped her apply the potion, and she'll be fine after a while. It's really hard for your irresponsible brother to think that after giving birth to the child, there will be no responsibility. ”
Lao Liao hurriedly smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I will definitely raise Xiaoxue and also need to work together with you." ”
Tan Ziqing's face flushed, turned her face to the side, and pretended to be looking for something. said: "That's your business, but Xiaoxue is so pitiful and cute, I will also help a little." Sit down, I'm going to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Brother Liao, do you want help?"
The words of the helper in the back are actually hinting at creating a space for the two of them to be alone, but Lao Liao is pampered in the Luna Manor, and he is used to living a superior life by stretching out his hands to eat, and he has lost the strength to do everything himself. Lying on the sofa lazily waved his hand, like a lazy husband, he said: "You can grasp these things like washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, seasoning, sauce and cooking, and wait for the dishes to come back and wait for instructions." ”
Tan Ziqing said with a smile: "Brother Liao, please don't worry, my Chinese New Year's Eve dinner must be extraordinary." He rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen with a few bags of purchased items. The back is curling. The hips bounced and jumped, which made people never get tired of watching it.
Guan Xianxue raised her face and asked seriously, "Uncle, do you like Auntie?"
"Haha, you can see it at a young age. Liao Xuebing touched Guan Xian's head and did not evade this question: "Do you think Auntie is not beautiful?"
"Then if you like Auntie, will you like Xiaoxue in the future?"
"Of course you will, as long as you are obedient. Lao Liao is not good at coaxing children, but his words always make children feel the charm that they can rely on, which makes Guan Xianxue trust him very much.
The traditional Chinese New Year's Eve meal is not as simple as boiling a few turnips and greens, and it is almost the most important meal of the year, also known as reunion dinner. It takes the whole family to eat together to be tasteful, and if there are only one or two people sitting in relative hiatus, the scene is not only boring but also poignant.
However, with the development of society to this day, family reunion is not the only choice, to be with the gentle, kind and amiable little Tan sister, Lao Liao does not care about other things. My sister and Murong Lanluo both went back to Lihua Town, and Murong Bingyudi Company had a New Year's party, and he had nothing to worry about.
When the children are playing and setting off firecrackers, it is also the busiest time for housewives in the kitchen. Generally speaking, New Year's dishes must be prepared in advance a few days beforehand. According to the custom of Zhonghai City. A chicken, a fish, and a bowl of meat are necessary to worship the ancestors, and they must not be missing, otherwise the ancestors will blame the descendants for neglect.
These ancient customs cannot be abolished, and the dining table on the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve has become the best place for people to compare their living standards, and it is gradually becoming more and more intense. Tan Ziqing is alone in Zhonghai, and it is very doubtful whether she can cook the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Liao Xuebing held Guan Xianxue and watched the TV host say funny words that had not changed for more than ten years and the New Year lines that had never touched people's hearts, and the sound of doo doo cutting chopping boards began to be heard in the kitchen, one board and one eye, very regular, full of ears, interwoven into the music of Chinese New Year's Eve.
Guan Xianxue whispered: "Uncle, can Xiaoxue help you chase your aunt?"
"You?" Lao Liao looked at the little girl who was only nine years old, and was very suspicious - you must know that he was ignorant when he was only nine years old, and he thought that "pickled girls" was a kind of food, no matter how exquisite Guan Xianxue was, what could he know?
"Uncle, auntie seems to have a lot of feelings for you!" Guan Xianxue whispered what she was thinking.
Regardless of whether this idea has been proven or not, in short, Lao Liao is very satisfied, touched his chin and smiled smugly: "Uncle is so handsome, it's normal for girls to have feelings for me." ”
"That's it. Guan Xianxue actually agreed with Lao Liaodi's point of view, saying: "People spend the Chinese New Year's Eve with their families, but she trusts her uncle so much, invited to the house, and signed the special nature of today's day, which shows that my aunt also cares about her uncle." The little girl shook her head to analyze the situation. It is quite the style of Liao Xuebing's fraud.
Old Liao laughed, his vanity was greatly satisfied, and said, "Then how do you think the uncle can be with the aunt?"
"Send her flowers, send her the reddest roses, and write to her, on that scented stationery, which will surely make my aunt like it. ”
"What is the content of the letter?" Liao Xuebing began to feel that he couldn't underestimate Xiaoxue, he was worthy of being a woman. Born to understand the truth of romance. However, romance is based on material conditions, if it is someone else, the big red rose is not stacked with 999 100 yuan bills, the other party will basically disdain, if the back of the letter does not have seven zero checks, the girl who receives the letter will also let the letter become a butterfly fluttering in the wind.
Guan Xianxue tilted her head and thought about it, and said: "There are a lot of things that can be written, it depends on what your relationship is. Pressing '......' step by step
Liao Xuebing's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "The stinky girl is a big ghost." ”
Guan Xianxue pursed her lips and said, "People are not stinky girls!"
Lao Liao quickly went into the kitchen to find a chance to get close to Tan Ziqing, his sister was not at home, he was like a mouse out of the cage, he could do whatever he wanted, no one cared.
The kitchen is very clean and spotless, which makes people feel refreshed, and I can't help but sigh that this girl is really very hardworking and capable. The tools on the board are neatly arranged, and the cabbage, celery, green onions, and ginger shreds are all cut and placed in different bowls. Next to it, there was a chicken that had been cleaned up in the morning, and its feathers were plucked clean. The whole chicken has been watered, the skin is tender and yellow, and there are also a large number of semi-finished dishes that are dazzling.
Tan Ziqing was wearing an apron, cutting vegetables very intently, and a few strands of hair fell on her forehead, making her very good wife and mother.
"Hehe...... old Liao laughed a few times. "Ziqing, you do so much work alone, how can I bear it, say, what do you want to help?"
Tan Ziqing smiled faintly, so she said angrily: "Brother Liao, don't come to the kitchen to make a mess again, I will naturally call you when it's done." ”
Lao Liao looked at the situation, he would definitely not be able to do it for more than four hours, if there was no one to help. It would really tire her out, and she was about to participate in labor, when he received a call from Cao Shengchao to pay New Year's greetings.
Because of the development of technology, whether it is an ordinary phone or a mobile phone, it is easy to be eavesdropped, but the telecom operator Ning Kelan is a loyal disciple of the Bei family and has strong technical force, so he is not worried about leaks. After Liao Xuebing saw the number display, he was afraid that he would fight and kill the dirty thing, and Tan Ziqing would know about it, so he quietly turned around and came to the balcony of the living room to answer the phone.
Cao Shengchaodi's voice was as cold as ever. smiled: "Lord Liao, I don't say anything all year round." I'll give you an early birthday first. ”
Lao Liao is still smiling: "Hehe, congratulations on the New Year, congratulations." ”
"Then I wish Lord Liao good health and a happy family. ……”
After talking nonsense for more than ten minutes, Liao Xuebing finally became impatient: "Lao Cao, is your family short of money to buy pork? What's the matter? Or is your wife having a difficult birth, and you want to ask me to help see who cuckolded you? Didn't there be nude photos of celebrities exposed a few days ago? I think some of them look a lot like your wife. ”
"Hehe, it's funny, you see this year is coming, my pork is also bought, and my wife hides at home and never goes out to be embarrassed, how about you say everyone will have a harmonious New Year?"
It turned out that this old boy was going to make peace for a temporary truce. Lao Liao immediately calculated in his heart, first, Cao Shengchao was in big trouble, otherwise he would never take the initiative to sue for peace with his temperament; second, the opponent had a new trick, waiting for himself to be careless, and he was always ready to strike a fatal blow.
"No problem, but how much do you seal this red envelope for me? Lao Liao took the opportunity to rip off the bamboo.
