Chapter 13: New Year
The days of winter seem to fly by, and in a blink of an eye, it is the Chinese New Year's Eve.
In the previous life, my mother was always very sad on such days, so after my father's death, they hardly celebrated the New Year.
And now the Baihe family gathers in the kitchen to cook Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.
"Lao Bai, how did I cut it. Chen Fanghui asked as he arranged the cut vegetables neatly.
"That's good, Fangfang, you must be talented. Bai Yang suddenly remembered the last time Chen Fanghui cooked at home alone and burned the kitchen, and hurriedly answered. "But I'll do this kind of rough work, and your hands will be rough. Poplar took out the freshly cooked vegetables from the pot, took the chopped vegetables and began to stir-fry a new dish.
"Fangfang, you take Nannan and your parents to the living room to watch TV. ”
"I still want to help you, I don't know how to cook. Chen Fanghui stood aside with Bai He in her arms, and couldn't bear to watch her husband busy going around.
"That's it, Xiao Yang, Fangfang is like this, she can't even cook, and she will starve to death if she leaves you, so you let her learn more." Father Yang and Mother Yang looked at the thick silk of their daughter's little thumb, which was really miserable.
"Fangfang has me, so I don't need to learn this. Bai Yang looked at Chen Fanghui's hand chopping vegetables and red in distress.
"I stir-fried the last two dishes and went out. Bai Yang took out the freshly baked dishes by the stove and said to Chen Fanghui.
"Okay. Chen Fanghui said in frustration, and suddenly she thought about it again. "Then let's go to the living room and peel melon seeds for you. ”
Chen Fanghui took her parents and daughter, and a group of people to the living room to peel melon seeds together.
"Dear viewers and friends, the new year is coming soon. The Spring Festival host on TV said impassionedly.
"Next, I brought ...... to the audience and friends" Bai He sat in front of the TV and slowly peeled the melon seeds in his hand, put the peeled melon seeds in his hand one by one on the plate on the side, and waited for the whole family to sit together and eat later.
"The dishes are all ready! Fangfang, Nannan, Mom and Dad, come to dinner. Poplar brought the last dish to the table and greeted the people gathered around the TV.
"Dad, give you melon seeds. Bai He poured the freshly peeled melon seeds into Bai Yang's mouth in one go.
"Okay, we are the most filial. Poplar chewed a big mouthful of melon seeds and said with relief.
"Nan, New Year's greetings to grandparents and grandmothers. Chen Fanghui led Bai He to Yang's father and Yang's mother.
"I wish my grandfather happiness such as the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan. Bai He kowtowed to Father Yang and Mother Yang and said with a smile.
"I also wish my grandmother to get younger and younger, and her youth will last forever. ”
"Well, we are the most well-behaved and filial. Give you New Year's money. Father Yang and Mother Yang hurriedly took out the red envelope in her arms and stuffed it into Bai He's pocket.
"I wish Mom and Dad sweet and sweet, and all wishes come true. ”
"Okay, with you, we've always had our hearts come true, sweet and sweet. Bai Yang picked up the white lotus who was kneeling on the ground to greet the New Year and stuffed a big red envelope
"Mom and Dad, you give so much money to Nannan, she is still young, and she doesn't know where to lose it when she waits. Chen Fanghui looked at her parents who had all wrapped such thick red envelopes, for fear that Bai He was still young, and she didn't know the use of the money and threw it around.
"And Lao Bai, you too. ”
"You put your money in your mother first, and your mother will save it for you to use in college in the future." ”
Looking at his mother with a smile on her face, this is really a common trick for adults, Bai He thought to himself. I don't know how much money I have for the New Year.
