The car slowly drove into the garage, Chen Shu unloaded all the things on the car, and when the car came out of the garage, he just saw his grandfather sitting on a small stool in front of the building basking in the sun.

The elder brother took out the couplet and the door god from the house, beat the paste with an iron spoon, and prepared to go to the door to post it, just when he saw Chen Shu and them coming back.

"You go back to the house first, I'll help my brother paste the couplet and the door god, and then move things later." Chen Shu said.

"Uncle, will you give me my cannon?"

"Okay!" Chen Shu handed Xiao Fei a handful of fireworks, and let Xiao Fei run out with them. Obviously, I saw my grandfather sitting there and went to play with my grandfather. The older a person gets, the younger his mental age becomes, and after Xiaofei returned to his hometown, he especially likes to play with his grandfather.

There is a saying in my hometown that I owe debts for more than a year, that is, I have to come to the door to say hello if I don't pay the account, and now I basically take the account book to ask for the account from door to door.

In the past, every year at this time, my father would ride a bicycle out, and the family could not pay the account to say two good words to others, after all, it was a small favor. Later, my brother stopped going to school to end such a day, and the money my brother earned from the contractor team was basically spent on the family's expenses, and there was not much money left at the end of the year.

My brother has never said this, maybe my brother is in the same mood as himself, and he doesn't want to see his father's expression of begging for help. Everything has changed since he graduated, and the smiles on his parents' faces have never been broken, especially when his brother got engaged and brought Luo Chenyu back, this family has never been so happy and lively.

At this time, seeing his father pushing the bicycle out of the utility room, Chen Shu asked, "Why are you going?"

"I lent out more than 2,000 yuan, I'll ask if I can get it back?"

"Don't go, if no one wants to owe favors, if you don't come to the door if you don't come, it seems a little unreasonable, especially now that we don't have this amount of money. Don't go Dad!"

Chen Shu's words seemed to make his father sound the scene when others came to the door to ask for accounts, and sighed and pushed the bicycle into the utility room, but it seemed to be much easier when he came out of the utility room.

"You're right, there's no need to chase it anymore, our family was like the New Year's Pass back then, and now it's really unnecessary! Go again in a few days, you can pay it back if you can, and you can't admit it!" looked at the smile on Chen Shu's face, and was still not satisfied, turned around and went back to the house to help my mother chop the stuffing.

After the fireworks were bought, Xiaofei couldn't wait, she put a lot of them at night, and she had to put them in broad daylight, so that Wang Zilan was scared and didn't make a fuss.

Chen Shu took a broom to clean the yard and then the street at the door, all of which were habits that had been passed down from the village for many years. If the road in front of someone's house is not cleaned, the villagers will laugh when they pass by the door.

After cleaning, carry water with a bucket, and sprinkle all the roads with water before it is over, I feel that I am afraid that only the ancient emperors have the treatment of it, and the clear water splashes the loess mat on the street.

Now that basically everything that should be cleaned up has been cleaned up, Chen Shu and his brother have entered the house to prepare thirty dumplings, and the old mother has already reconciled the noodles when they enter the house.

"Chen Qiang, you go pick up Jing Xuan, you should have gotten off work a long time ago. It's enough to have Chen Shu and your dad at home, it's still early, and it's not bad to make dumplings. ”

"Well, then I'll pick her up!" After speaking, he took the key and drove the Elantra out of the house, and before going out, his father told him to drive slowly, don't drive fast for the New Year.

The rolling wrist was more tired, so Chen Shu replaced his mother and replaced it with his mother and father to roll the slices by themselves. Wang Zilan took a small stool and sat down, and also prepared to make dumplings.

"Zilan, you go and cook the crabs and prawns, Mom, they haven't cooked them a few times, I'm afraid they can't cook well, and it's okay to steam." Chen Shu said.

"Okay!"

By the time my brother and sister-in-law arrived home, the dumplings had already been wrapped, the crabs and prawns were out of the pot, and my mother was preparing to start stir-frying.

"It's better for me to come, you can rest Mom!" the old brother stopped the old mother, took the shovel and prepared to start stir-frying.

"Chen Shu, the eldest brother has done all the work of his mother, what will you do?" Wang Zilan said.

"He'll eat! It's all his brother cooking, and he's watching from the sidelines, and he just eats the food when it's out of the pot. But he has been washing dishes since he was in junior high school!"

"You've made a lot of progress, behave well, and continue to wash the dishes when you go back!" Wang Zilan responded immediately, and the whole family laughed.

"Sister-in-law, have you tried that trench coat? I deliberately bought a slightly thinner one, I can't wear it, I can't see you at the time, I feel that I have to be much thinner than me!" Wang Zilan asked.

"It just so happens that if I had been dressed a little thin a month ago, I would have lost weight as soon as I went to work, and now that I am wearing just right, I guess I won't be able to wear it next year!

"I'll change it to a new one next year, wear it first! It's not a lot of money, just look good!" Wang Zilan didn't care about spending this money.

Before five o'clock, the sound of firecrackers was already lively, and the dumplings at home were also cooked, and my brother went to my uncle's house and told them to come here at night after eating dumplings.

When the dumplings came out of the pot, Chen Shu also lit the firecrackers. Worried about scaring the child, Chen Shu closed the doors of both rooms very tightly. Wang Zilan guarded Xiao Menghan, and her sister-in-law guarded Chen Ruiming, who was worried that the child would cry when the cannon went off.

However, after the firecrackers went off, the two Xiaobao didn't cry, staring and looking around, but the sound in the room was much quieter, and not much sound came in. All the firecrackers were in the utility room, and the brothers took them out in a pile and began to put them, and soon the yard was covered with cannon skins, and Chen Shu took out the fireworks.

Because it didn't explode in the end, it just sprayed flames of various colors, Xiaofei also ran out of the house, and when she saw her uncle and uncle in the courtyard, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she took out the hand-held fireworks that Chen Shu bought, lit one on the stove for cooking outside and ran to the courtyard.

When I just got it back, I put a few of them, and when I was about to burn it, I directly lit the next one on the remnants of Mars, and put them one by one, Xiaofei also learned, and put several in a row, and finally was dragged back to the house by Wang Zilan to eat.

When he was pulled into the house, he still looked back and looked at the handful of hand-held fireworks that had not been set off in the place, but in the end he still did not resist Wang Zilan's reprimand.

Since grandpa was sober-minded, he no longer eats at a small table alone, and he is very happy to see a large table of people eating around. People are prosperous and full of children and grandchildren, I am afraid it is the wish of every old man!

After eating 30 dumplings, Chen Shu and his brother served the prepared cold dishes to the table, and then brought the fried hot dishes to the table. My mother looked at it and felt that if the uncle and aunt came over, the place would still be a little small, so she set up another table next to it and served the same meal.

However, there are a large plate of crabs and prawns on both tables, after all, there are too few crabs that can be bought in the village, and although prawns can be bought, they are willing to buy so many prawns. Soon there was a dense sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and naturally it was the eldest lady and their family who came over.

"No wonder Chen Qiang called us over, your crabs have already been cooked, and the box of us that we have taken is not enough to divide it, so I just came to your house to make up the numbers!" said the eldest lady when she came in.

"I'm afraid that you won't have enough to eat, so it's specially prepared for you! The crabs and prawns are all ready, and it's time for the people to eat them. ”

"As I said to you, we have to do you a favor and get rid of your crabs and shrimps. The eldest daughter-in-law of the uncle's family said.

"Eat, sister-in-law! If you don't have enough to eat, I'll cook you again!" As he spoke, the family sat down, Chen Shu's brothers and father, plus the uncle and Chen Shu's three cousins, and Chen Shu's grandfather sat directly at the small table, and the mother and a few children sat down around the big table.

"Xiaofei, what should I say about the Chinese New Year?" the eldest sister-in-law called Xiaofei over and asked.

"I wish my grandparents good health and all the best! Auntie, uncle, and mother have a happy and happy New Year!"

"Okay! This kid really can talk!" Chen Shu's uncle smiled from ear to ear.

"People say Happy New Year! Wishing you prosperity! Why don't you say that?" the sister-in-law continued to ask Xiaofei.

"Uncle and mother have already made a fortune, no need to say that!" the whole room laughed, not expecting the child to say that.

However, Wang Mengfei didn't have the heart to eat and drink with the adults, so she quickly ran out with a few brothers and sisters, took out most of the hand-held fireworks that Chen Shu bought, and set off them together in the courtyard. Chen Shu went out to take a look, and didn't bring firecrackers and fireworks, but he was still a little uneasy, so he changed these dangerous places.
