As soon as the lights come on, the whole city begins to show its charm at night. Cheongju City, which was originally a quiet type, has fallen into a warm and quiet state at the moment.

Koreans who respect tradition go home early on this day, or in other words, stay at home all the time. is like people like Park Chuxi. If it is a big family, all the members who are outside will come back on this day, put aside their prejudices, and have a happy holiday together.

In the courtyard seen through the glass, the old banyan tree has been decorated. It was Park Chuxi and Park Chulong who did this. The lights around the courtyard are also covered with red palace lanterns, and under the soft red light, it looks full of atmosphere.

At this moment, Park Chuxi and Park Chulong are staying in the kitchen, cooperating with Park's mother to make exquisite dishes from the ingredients that have been prepared in advance, and Park Chulong is responsible for setting them on the table. As the head of the family, Father Park naturally sat in the living room and watched the variety show on the TV. Still, he seemed in a good mood.

"There's only one last dish left, you all go out, pack up, and you're ready to eat. Mother Park kicked Park Chuxi and Park Chulong out of the kitchen and asked them to take charge of the placement. And Pu Mu will make an indispensable dish, rice cake soup.

No matter how the dishes on the Korean table change, this dish will never change. This dish has a very important symbolic meaning for Koreans.

In China, the homonym of rice cake is Nian Gao, which means that it is getting higher and higher every year, and it is rising every year. Koreans, who are deeply influenced by Chinese culture, naturally have a special meaning for rice cakes. Every qualified housewife will make a delicious and delicate rice cake soup.

The general rice cake soup is either beef rice cake soup or chicken soup rice cake soup. Housewives are familiar with various practices, and Pu's mother chose to make chicken soup rice cake soup, which is milder than beef soup and is suitable for people with a calm and gentle personality. The rice cakes are cut into thin slices, and the carefully selected chicken is boiled into a thick soup, and from time to time, the white chicken rolls with the soup, bringing a burst of aroma. Pu's mother put in the rice cakes, mix them into a simmer, and wait for the rice cakes to taste.

Park Chuxi and Park Chulong set up tableware in the restaurant and set up the scene. Wine and beverages are indispensable. However, no one in the Park Chuxi family likes to drink, so they just prepared sake with a very low alcohol content. The juice is also freshly squeezed from fresh fruit.

After everything was ready, Park Chuxi motioned to Park Chulong to call Father Park.

"Dad, it's time to eat. Park Chulong said.

"Well, got it. ”

Park Chuxi went into the kitchen.

"Mom, it's so fragrant, I've always missed this taste!" Pu Chuxi took a deep breath and made an intoxicated expression.

"Then eat a little more in a while. Mother Pu was very happy.

"Well, okay, I'll bring it out, Mom!" Pu Chuxi took the handkerchief and brought out the rice cake soup that had already come out of the pot. Pu's mother took off her apron and followed Park Chuxi out of the door.

Father Park had already sat down, and Park Chuxi put down the soup and sat down at the right hand of Father Park. Pu's mother sat on the left hand side of Pu's father, and Pu Chulong sat down next to Pu's mother. Everyone sat down, and Father Park said, "Let's eat!"

As soon as Father Park spoke, it marked the official start of dinner.

Dinner was hearty, but what was more enjoyable was the atmosphere.

Father Park rarely let go of his serious appearance and took the initiative to chat with Park Chuxi. In fact, when he was serious before, it was just to let Park Chuxi grow up faster. Now Park Chuxi makes him very satisfied, and there is no need for him to keep a straight face all the time.

The only thing that he regrets is that neither of his two children can inherit the mantle of Aikido. Both Park Chuxi and Park Chulong are very talented in this regard, but neither of them has any thoughts on this. But how can there be anything in the world?

"Dad, after the Chinese New Year, you and your mother will move to Seoul. Park Chuxi proposed.

Father Park fell into deep thought. Moving to Seoul wasn't so resistant, but again, he was reluctant to leave. As for Pu's mother, although she is a little reluctant, if she can stay by her children's side, that reluctance can be ignored.

"Forget it. After a long time, Father Park said.

"Your mother and I have lived in Cheongju for decades and have adapted to our own pace of life. Besides, you're all grown up, and you don't need me and your mother to watch you all the time. And you're busy with work, so your mom and I can be taken care of by the neighbors here. I can't bear this gym, it's a treasure left by my ancestors. The reason that Father Park said was carefully considered by him.

In fact, after Park Chuxi proposed it, he knew that it should be such an answer.

"Yes, father. I understand what you're thinking. Park Chuxi said.

"But my brother and I will often contact you, every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival, no matter how busy we are, my brother and I will come back. Park Chulong said.

Although Pu's mother was moved just now, when Pu's father said this, she also felt that it was inappropriate. Moreover, where Father Park is, she will be there.

"It's good that you two know!" Pu's mother said, and gave him some of Pu Chuxi's favorite dishes, of course, she couldn't favor one over the other, she also gave Park Chulong a lot. A pair of children are the meat of their hearts that they can't give up.

"Mom, you can eat more!" Park Chulong also picked up the dishes she liked to eat for Pu's mother.

"Let's have a drink, everyone!" Father Park proposed. Then Park Chuxi poured sake for his father, mother, sister and himself.

"It's really big to see the changes in you now. Chu Xi is no longer the kid who gave people a headache at the beginning, and Chu Long has also grown into a big girl. You don't need me or your mother's pointing. Father Park laughed, and his tone was very relieved.

"I'm relieved to see you like this. ”

Park Chuxi said: "There are still many things I don't understand that I haven't consulted my father. ”

Father Pu waved his hand and said, "Young people should solve everything by themselves." When he spoke, he felt a little hard, so he added: "But the elders will always be your reliable harbor." ”

"New year, new beginnings. I don't ask you how well you do, but in everything you do, ask yourself what you really think. Chu Xi, it is not okay to blindly compromise and seek everything, and it is not okay to blindly make concessions. In the end, it became the time for Father Pu to educate his children, but whether it was Park Chuxi or Park Chulong, they all listened very carefully.

"Alright, cheers for the new year!" said Father Park!

"Cheers!"

The glass makes a beautiful sound, just like the heart of everyone at this moment, pure and transparent and clear and pleasant!
