"Xiaomei also wants to eat it, can she eat it, Mom?" Luo Xiaoyu asked her mother. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Wait a while, when the oil is drained, give her a piece, not too small, lest it choke in your mouth. Give the older one a little bit and let her suck it in her hand, and remember to wrap it around. ”
The children ate hemp leaves one by one, and Tang Xiangxiang said helplessly:
"Little fools, there will be balls in a while, save your stomach and eat it again."
"Oh, eat the balls." Luo Xiaoyu danced the dance taught by the nursery aunt, and Luo Xiaomei, who was on the bed, slapped her hands on the bed, screamed a few times, and clapped her hands together...............
"Mom, you see my sister will clap." Luo Xiaoyu was the first to find out and shouted his mother in surprise.
"Oh, our Xiaomei Club is welcome, it's so smart." Luo Jingquan and Tang Xiangxiang both said happily after seeing each other, Luo Xiaomei seemed to understand the praise of the adults, and clapped her hands even harder, and the sound of laughter and frying surrounded the whole cabin, which was extremely warm.
Luo Jingquan and his wife were busy cutting meat and washing vegetables all afternoon, until it was dark, and finally a table of dishes was put on the table.
Cold lotus cabbage, cold noodles, spinach, shredded radish, roast chicken with potatoes, crispy pork, stir-fried shredded pork with celery, chicken offal with kimchi, stir-fried cabbage, and finally vermicelli vegetarian ball soup, a standard soup of eight dishes and one soup.
After the dishes were arranged, Luo Jingquan took out the firecrackers and placed them on the stairs, at this time there were no 100 or 1,000 sounds, there were no good-looking electric light cannons, just small firecrackers made of ordinary newspapers, and the sound was not as deafening as in his previous life.
The children were too young, and Luo Jingquan didn't plan to let them light the cannons, he shouted: "I'm lighting the fire, everyone cover their ears."
Then crackling firecrackers rang out, smoke trickled through the cracks in the door, and the smell of sulfur immediately wafted through the air.
Luo Jingquan closed the second door, he pulled his second daughter, Tang Xiangxiang hugged his little daughter, and the whole family sat down around the table.
Luo Xiaoyu poured the brewed sugar water for his mother and eldest sister and put it in front of him, and also poured it for himself, but Luo Jingquan took a bottle of grain wine and poured himself a small glass, he does not smoke or drink, but today is the 30th Chinese New Year's Eve, he symbolically poured a little.
"Mom and Dad, I wish you a great fortune in the New Year, all the best, and good health!" Luo Xiaoyu stood up first and said the auspicious words from the TV in his previous life.
Luo Jingquan was fortunately used to his eldest daughter's 'amazing words', but Tang Xiangxiang looked at her in shock, and it took a long time to react and ask:
"Where did you learn these words? But it's very good, mom and dad are very happy, we Xiaoyu have grown up. ”
Luo Xiaoyu thinks of them who will be old decades later through their young parents, and every year they accept the children's kneeling New Year's greetings, each child will say a few auspicious words, and every time the parents will flash tears, which makes everyone cry, touching and warm.
"Sister, you teach me too." Luo Xiaoyu turned his head to look at his sister and said coquettishly.
Luo Xiaoyu leaned into her ear and whispered a few words, and after Luo Xiaoyu listened, he hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and said:
"Mom and Dad wish you more and more handsome! Getting prettier! Luo Xiaoxue connected the two sentences together, and said that the parents laughed.
Luo Xiaomei in her arms was at a loss, looked at this and that, and then clapped her hands and laughed.
After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, there was no TV, no entertainment, and the children played all day and went to bed early.
Luo Jingquan looked out the window, thinking of his parents who were far away from home, but he didn't know how they were doing? How is the New Year? I don't know if it's enough to send ten yuan a year ago, my parents have never taken a photo, and I wrote a letter to let the old couple take a photo, I don't know if I took a photo?
His nose was a little sore, Tang Xiangxiang walked up to him and grabbed his arm, leaned in to him and said:
"Jingquan, can't you ask the leader for a leave, can you take the time to go back to your hometown? See how the parents are doing? ”
Luo Jingquan turned his head to look at his wife, sighed and said:
"Alas, it's difficult, there is no train to us, and it is not easy to walk by car, it takes three or four days to go back and forth, and it will be delayed for two or three days on the road.
.....................
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, several children put on new clothes, Luo Xiaoyu's shirt was a square neck, Luo Xiaoyu was a round neck, and Tang Xiangxiang embroidered a few small flowers on each pocket of his clothes.
Luo Xiaoyu looked at his clothes, then at his sister's clothes, pouted and was about to speak, Luo Xiaoyu looked in his eyes and said first: "Xiaoyu's clothes are so beautiful, they look better than my sister's, my mother is biased."
What Luo Xiaoyu wanted to say was said by his sister, he was stunned for a moment, looked at his clothes again, and felt that the more he looked at it, the better it looked, and he couldn't hide the pride on his face.
As soon as Luo Jingquan and his wife sat down, Luo Xiaoyu was the first to kneel on the cushion on the ground, kowtowed three times skillfully and said:
"Happy New Year to Mom and Dad!" This is the set she used for the Chinese New Year last year, because she will pay the New Year's money next, so she remembers it very clearly.
Sure enough, Luo Jingquan took out a penny of coins from his pocket, and the "bang" coin was poured into Luo Xiaoxu's hand, her eyes immediately shone brightly, her little face showed a greedy expression, she forgot to say thank you, and looked at the coin in her hand intently.
Luo Xiaoyu smiled in her heart, her eldest sister didn't have a sense of money at all, and the money was coaxed by her to spend it later. She pulled her sister up and knelt on the mat and kowtowed three times.
"Happy New Year to Mom and Dad!" said the same thing as her sister, Tang Xiangxiang took out more than a dozen coins and put them in her hand and said earnestly:
"Xiaoyu, you are the eldest in the family, your parents will give you five cents more, and you will have to take care of your sisters more in the future and let them do more."

The other side.
Long Dingwen gave his sons a New Year's money of five cents per person, Long Jianbing thought about how to buy more cannons, and Long Jianguo ran into the hut with the money, everyone knew that he was hiding money.
On the second day of junior high school, Long Dingwen and his wife sent their children door-to-door to visit the New Year, without the need to mention gifts or send New Year's money.
It's just a pure New Year's greeting, which is also an activity that children like, and they can always eat something different from their own when they go to other people's homes.
The adults only have three days off, but the children have been making trouble until the fifteenth day of the first month, during which Luo Xiaoyu's family also went to grandpa's house, and grandpa returned home from vacation before the New Year.
After they went, Grandpa wanted to keep them for dinner, but Grandma knocked on the table and stumbled over the bowl to show her face.............
Luo Jingquan handed over Ma Yonggui's case, and the investigation of Ma Yonggui was withdrawn, and Li Yuehua intercepted Luo Jingquan on the road.
