As the saying goes, after Laba is the year.

Laba porridge is drunk for a few days, and the mile is twenty-three, and the twenty-three sugar melons are sticky.

The twenty-third day of the lunar month is actually a small year, also known as Xie Zao, the Stove Festival, the Stove King Festival, the Stove Stove Festival, the ancient times are to prepare sugar, pig's head meat and other foods to be offered to the Stove Prince, why, according to legend, it is because this day the Stove Lord wants to go to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor Comrade for a year of work, eat a little sugar and have a sweet mouth, and say that it is nice to be stupid, if he wants to make a small report, then stick to his mouth, so that he can't speak.

Of course, people now will not go to worship the Lord of the Stove anymore, after all, most people can't fill their stomachs by themselves.

Early in the morning, Shen Hui cooked dumplings, and took out all kinds of candy she bought and put them on the table, her original intention was to prepare for Xiao Lei who came to the door, who knew that she was just washing the dishes, and there was a bunch of sugar paper on the table, and then looking at Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong, these two goods actually finished crunching the halva.

Well, for the sake of today's day of eating sugar, she doesn't care too much, she just thinks it's strange, isn't eating sugar the patent of children and women?

Seeing off the two people who were training, Shen Hui prepared a lot of candy, and it is expected that there will be a lot of children coming over today.

Although the salary of being a soldier is high, most of the families have many children, there are old parents, wives and children, and there are brothers and sisters who have not yet started a family.

But this year, everyone knows that Shen Hui and a few people have made money, and a while ago she took a big bag of things home, and many people saw it, if they didn't blush, they just didn't dare to embarrass their own man.

If your children take advantage of the festival to visit the door, it is not too much to ask for some candy, so Shen Hui estimates that the children in the whole camp will come to the house today.

has money in her hand, she doesn't see this little candy in her eyes, she can come if she wants, just add a little excitement to the family,

Who knew that Shen Hui waited and waited, and waited until it was time for lunch, and no children came to the door, even Xiao Lei didn't come, it's really strange!

In the afternoon, there were still no children coming to beg for candy, Shen Hui couldn't help but go to Qi's sister-in-law's house, and saw that Wang Aihong was also there, and the two had already talked for a while.

"Auntie eats sugar!" Xiao Lei enthusiastically grabbed a large handful of sugar and stuffed it into her hand.

Shen Hui took the rest and put it back, "Xiao Lei, why don't you come to Auntie's house today, Auntie specially prepared a big plate of candy for you!"

Xiao Lei scratched his head, "Oh, don't you have no children at home, I thought you didn't buy candy!"

Uh, so in the eyes of children, adults don't eat sugar?

"Why are you like Aihong, and you have asked Xiao Lei why he didn't go!" Here, Sister-in-law Qi said with a smile.

"Uh, sister-in-law, you don't know, I waited at home for a day today, and no children came to the door, and I thought I had the wrong day, who knew it was a misunderstanding!" Shen Hui shrugged.

"I'm also here to talk about this!" Wang Aihong said, "Xiao Lei, this guy said that those who don't have children at home don't prepare sugar, so they don't come." ”

"Well, weren't they very poor in the past, these children ran all over the camp, and they didn't buy candy at home without children...... Since then, I have only gone to homes with children at home, and every time I have filled half of his pockets in advance, and I have asked for less from others. Sister-in-law Qi explained.

Shen Hui glanced at Xiao Lei, and wrote seriously, it is estimated that he was too young to remember at that time, "Xiao Lei, you can go to Auntie's house, Auntie specially prepared it for you, do you want to go?"

"Go!" Xiao Lei happily replied, "We walked ten houses in the morning, and we only saved half a pocket of candy!" The little guy said and opened his pocket to a few people, "Not as much as my mother gave to one person!"

"Xiao Lei, don't be so stingy, look at your Aunt Shen, she gave you candy for nothing, and people didn't earn a single candy back! Besides, if you go to a friend's house, won't they give you that delicious food!"

Xiao Lei nodded.

Shen Hui took Xiao Lei home, and deliberately packed some more, so that he could distribute them to other children in the camp.

I don't know if Xiao Lei took the initiative to publicize it, the next day Shen Hui walked on the road, and a few familiar children took the initiative to call Auntie, and even the military sister-in-law who had already met and didn't talk much greeted Shen Hui with a smile.

At this moment, Shen Hui actually felt that there were really a lot of family members in the camp, and it seemed that the scope of her previous life was still too narrow, and she should communicate with people more.

The next day twenty-four, sweep the house.

Shen Hui deliberately boiled three pots of hot water last night, the three of them took a bath happily, changed into clean clothes, and after eating breakfast and sending the two men away, she first washed her clothes, bed sheets and quilt covers, and after washing, she first dried them outside, and they were almost frozen and were taken back to dry.

After doing this, I swept the floor, washed the rags, wiped all the tables, chairs, furniture and everything in the room, and the room was finished.

In the afternoon, he took brooms, shovels, and baskets to sweep the gate of the yard, shoveled the snow with shovels and put it in frames, and the soldiers from various battalions worked together to transport the snow to the woods behind the canteen.

In the afternoon, Shen Hui hitchhiked to the city, and the business will be closed tomorrow, and she has to pay her employees wages and give red envelopes in advance.

The two waiters each gave a red envelope of eight yuan, and Sister-in-law Lin directly gave double the salary, and in addition to this month's salary of 100 yuan, there were 200 yuan, Chef Niu didn't want so much, and was pushed back by Shen Hui, if Chef Niu opened a shop by himself, he would earn much more than what she gave.

After paying the salary, there were no more people in the store in the middle of the afternoon, and Shen Hui pasted the red paper written in advance on the door outside, which said that the New Year's holiday would take place from today to the eighth day of the new year, almost half a month.

Shen Hui loaded all the money for the past few days and went to the post office with Sister-in-law Lin to save the money, seeing that the time was still early, the two went to the supply and marketing cooperatives again before returning home.

Twenty-five make tofu.

Shen Hui prepared ten catties of soybeans in advance, and also told Sister-in-law Lin that her family likes to eat tofu and has a small stone mill.

Who knew that when she went, someone was already grinding, and there was still one in the back, so she had to talk to Sister-in-law Lin while waiting. I thought it would be a long time, but five minutes later someone called her and said it was her turn.

Shen Hui glanced at the familiar woman in the back in surprise, she came before Shen Hui, "You came first, you use it first!"

The familiar woman shook her head, "You go first, I'm not in a hurry, I see you're in a hurry!"

Seeing Shen Hui hesitate, a round-faced woman who came after her stepped forward and said, "I'm also in a hurry, let me also go to the front!"

The familiar woman sneered, "Why should I let you!"

"Didn't you let her too?" said the round-faced woman.

"Yesterday she gave my son candy, what about you, did you give it?" the familiar woman rolled her eyes.

Shen Hui glanced at the familiar woman thoughtfully, no wonder she looked familiar, wasn't she the one who greeted enthusiastically on the road!

"Thank you! But don't worry about a little candy!" Shen Hui thanked.

The familiar woman smiled and waved her hand, but the round-faced woman glared at Shen Hui fiercely, making her very inexplicable.

After the soybeans are ground into juice, it is time to make tofu, cough cough, this is not easy for Shen Hui, and Sister-in-law Lin took the initiative to take over.

In the evening, a large plate of tofu was delivered, more than 40 catties, far exceeding her expectations, so she had to cut all the tofu into small pieces and put them on the outside to freeze, and then she could eat hot pot.

In the evening, I also deliberately made a big pot of tofu stewed cabbage with fresh tofu, and put a lot of spicy seeds, fragrant and spicy, and the three of them ate a whole big pot.

Twenty-six is a day that children look forward to, because twenty-six is the day to eat meat.

But it's still a bit embarrassing for parents, after all, most of the meat bought at home is ready to be eaten on the 30th day, or has been chopped with Chinese cabbage into dumpling filling.

However, there are a lot of meat dishes in the canteen for this day, and those who are reluctant to buy meat at home are all let the men in the family take them to the canteen to eat, and they will deal with it at home.

But there are also those who are smart, and they bought a lot of pig intestines, pig hearts, pig lungs, and pig livers in advance, which are also meat, and they are also very delicious.

Last night, Shen Hui cleaned three pigs' heads, seven or eight pig ears, and five or six pig's trotters, and she didn't like to eat offal, so she didn't buy them. The two stoves at home were all used, and I also asked my sister-in-law to borrow a larger pot, otherwise the pig's head would not be able to fit in.

When I got up in the morning, there was a room full of braised meat, and Shen Cong complained while getting dressed: "Sister, you hurt me that I didn't sleep well all night!"

Shen Hui just woke up, a little confused, and didn't react, "I didn't sleepwalk to fight with you, it's not bad for me if you don't sleep well!"

"Why don't you blame you, if it weren't for your braised meat so fragrant, would I have been able to wake up in the middle of the night? After waking up, I couldn't sleep anymore when I smelled the smell of meat and was hungry, I don't believe you asked my brother-in-law!" Shen Cong Zhenzhen said, it was all his sister's fault that his sister's craftsmanship was too good.

Gu Zhengqin seemed a little embarrassed, "Well, it's very fragrant, let's cut some for breakfast, let's go out for morning first!"

Shen Hui answered, washed first before lifting the lid of the pot, this time she immediately exploded, and only half of the face of a pig's head in the pot was left!

Hmph! No wonder you can't sleep hungry in the middle of the night, no wonder you're embarrassed, these two goods actually ate secretly in the middle of the night!

It's only three minutes to be angry, who let these things be made for them to eat!

Take out all the meat, pour a part of the marinade into the basin and freeze it outside, you can use it again next time, add water to the bottom of the pot to boil the noodles, put some alfalfa vegetables that have been boiled and dried in autumn, and then cut some pork face meat, put the noodles and soup out, sprinkle some green onions, and then put the pork face meat cut into slices, and a bowl of braised pork noodles will become.

It just so happened that Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong came back, washed their hands, and couldn't wait to pick up the noodles and suck and eat. Shen Hui took out a pig's ear and cut it into thin slices, added vinegar, soy sauce, seasonings, chopped green onions, and minced garlic and mixed it, smelling fragrant and crispy when biting.

After eating, Shen Hui left four pig's trotters, one pig's ear and the remaining half of the pig's head, and the rest was frozen outside.

Shen Hui continued to study after cleaning up, and when she was tired after studying for a while, she took out the cloth she pulled a few days ago, although she bought new clothes on New Year's Day, but she always felt that she didn't wear it during the New Year, so she pulled some cloth and made a coat for each of the three of them, which could be put on the cotton clothes.

In the afternoon, too, learn to practice, sit for a while and needlework, and wait until the evening when Shen Hui's coat is not sewn.

As the saying goes, twenty-seven killing chickens, chickens with auspiciousness, has the meaning of auspiciousness, auspiciousness, and the chickens killed on this day are also particular, must be eaten on the day of Chinese New Year's Eve, and can not be eaten, need to eat every day to be able to be lucky.

Of course Shen Hui didn't kill the chickens, she was afraid, and the two men in the family were too busy to get these, so she really bought them in Xishui Village, and they were kind enough to help kill them.

However, she got the oven outside early, and Sister-in-law Lin had already said that she would bake a few more chickens, ducks and fish, and her man had a holiday for the New Year, and they had already bought tickets, and the car was at ten o'clock tonight.

The fire had just been lit, and Sister-in-law Lin came over with two baskets, and the bottles dragged two large sleepy firewood behind her. Shen Hui took out melon seeds and candy for them to eat, and the three of them waited while talking.

After a few times the stove was hot, Shen Hui took out a few hanging hooks, but Sister-in-law Lin shook her head, "I'll bake moon cakes first, and then bake chicken, duck and fish!"

Shen Hui found that one of the two baskets was moon cake embryos, and the other was raw chicken, duck and fish.

As soon as I put the moon cakes in, Sister-in-law Qi came, "There is a big set today, I don't have Spring Festival couplets and firecrackers, I want to go and see it, are you going?"

Shen Hui responded well, she didn't buy it, but she heard that there was a market before the New Year.

Sister-in-law Lin won't go, her family is not here for the New Year, and she has to bake moon cakes, chicken, duck and fish, so she doesn't have time.

Shen Hui and Sister-in-law Qi went to Daji, but they didn't expect that there were a lot of people, and there were many people who bought and sold things, and they could also barter for things.

The two spent five cents to buy a couplet, and they also gave three blessing characters. Another person bought four firecrackers with 500 shots, and sister-in-law Qi bought some extra fireworks for Xiao Lei to play with.

When I got home, Sister-in-law Lin's chicken, duck and fish had just been roasted, because I couldn't deliver it at night, so everyone said okay, and we talked together in the afternoon.

In the evening, several close people put Sister-in-law Lin's family in the car and went back.

The next day, Shen Hui got up early and made noodles, and wanted to steam the steamed buns for two days, otherwise it would not be enough to eat, and the steamed buns were steamed with white flour and corn noodles.

Half of it is 'white bun', which is the kind that is usually eaten, and the rest are all wrapped in red dates.

By the time the buns had rested all night, it was already time for dinner, and Gu Zhengqin and Shen Cong could finally rest.

I got some food at night, and it was not suitable to go to Qi's sister-in-law's house to listen to the radio during the New Year, there was no entertainment, and the family sat there and talked and fell asleep.
