The next day was Chinese New Year's Eve, and when she got up early in the morning and wore new clothes, Lin Xiaojun helped her tie her hair by Yun Rong, touched the same clothes as several children of the Shen family, and slightly bowed her head to endure the tears in the corners of her eyes, and she had not been so lively and warm for many years.

On this day, there are few people who go to the house, except for the children in the village who run from east to west, Shen Huijun and Shen Chengan naturally returned to the old house, no matter how to say that Chinese New Year's Eve has to go home, there are still mothers at home, presumably the old man will not have to be driven out with a cold face, right?

Paste pairs, clean the house, deal with breakfast, and then the whole family is happily busy, so that the afternoon meal is in the afternoon, but this is the custom, that meal is considered a serious Chinese New Year's Eve meal.

This is the first year that the Qixi family has separated from each other, and to be honest, it is also the first decent year.

Li recalled sadly that at this time last year, the Shen family's old house was also busy buying New Year's goods to prepare for the New Year, but only her children didn't even dare to come forward to eat something.

"Mother, do you think this is enough?" Yun Duo came over with a basin, and the rest of the ingredients were processed, and he was going to fry some meatballs to eat at this time, and asked excitedly.

"Enough is enough, let's fry more this year, and go back to eat as snacks. When Li saw this, he quickly put away all those thoughts, took the basin and began to make croquettes.

"Okay, that mother's croquettes, I'll help my sister cook meat, I want to eat enough today. Yun Duo smiled and said, in fact, after the family food is ready. She's not so hungry for meat for a long time. But he deliberately pretended to be a little gluttonous cat and shouted. immediately made her mother laugh.

"Okay, it's enough to eat, our family has enough to eat today. Li smiled with happiness on his face, looked at his daughter and nodded loudly, he had never had the confidence to do so.

The sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is naturally indispensable to the cooking skills of Qixi, and the clouds pointed to the dishes and chattered about the head in the Xu Mansion, and the cooking skills of Qixi made people boast that the big man who had seen the world was praised, and everyone laughed non-stop when they listened.

Lin Qinian is even more amazing. directly said that in the future, it will not be interesting to do it outside, this has to wait for the family to open a restaurant, and when the time comes, it will be used as a signature dish, which amused Shen Chenghou and said, if he has a child at home, he Uncle Lin, can make a lot of money by doing anything.

After eating lively, the snacks and fruits are not removed, and the children go to eat when they are hungry and want to eat, and then the adults and children get together to play cards, because there are more people divided into two tables. There were a few more small ones, and they didn't serve on Tanabata. On the contrary, it was this person who jumped behind the person and gave them guidance one by one, but he was disgusted by everyone.

Laughing and keeping the New Year's Eve together, before the New Year came, they ate dumplings again, and stayed up until the hour, Shen Chenghou looked at the children who were sleepy, and then he smiled and drove the children to sleep, and the remaining adults cleaned up the house while talking, and then they went back to the house to sleep.

This night, the two red lanterns at the gate of the Qixi house have been lit, and the yard and every room are lit up.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when she hadn't slept enough on Qixi Festival, she was picked up by her eldest sister, and quickly packed up and went to the main room.

The elders first sat and received the children's New Year's greetings, and the whole family ate dumplings together, Lin Qinian and others were not worried that there was no one in the shop overnight, so they went back first, Shen Chenghou and his wife said that they would go to the town after paying their respects to the New Year, and then led the children to the old house.

Go out to see the light snow, the first two days of the snow has not stopped, the day is a little dry and cold, the ground has accumulated a layer of snow, Tanabata is very happy, she actually likes this kind of day the most, it is best to go out goose feather snow, they sit around the fire in the warm room, but unfortunately they have to go out.

However, I thought that the shop at home would not open until the tenth day of the first month, and the Tanabata Coke was broken, she was not very diligent, and she loved to sleep lazy, but the family got up early every day to work, and of course she couldn't bear to rely on herself, and this time she planned to eat and sleep more until she went to the county to send her two brothers.

There are still clans in the village who have to go to the old house, but they all have to wait for the old house first, all the way into the village to meet a lot of people also go out to pay New Year's greetings, it is inevitable to meet auspicious words, everyone's face is beaming.

"Oh, look at a few girls in your family, they are really handsome, especially Rong Yatou, after the New Year, Rong Yatou looks like a big girl. The daughter-in-law of the village pulled Li to speak, and kept looking at the clothes of several children.

"Her aunt looked at what you said, your Xia girl is better than anyone else, how can Rong girl compare with her?" Li hurriedly said modestly, even if she thought that her daughter was the best-looking, she couldn't say that.

"Look at your praise, my Xiaoxia is too big, and it won't make people laugh if the big girl is not sensible......" As soon as I heard the praise of my daughter, I was immediately happy.

Qixi pursed her lips and stood obediently listening, but she couldn't help but feel funny, her eldest sister didn't grow up in a day, and it was as if she was an adult immediately after Chinese New Year's Eve.

"The third child, I can finally rest this New Year, I'm afraid you can't give up the money, what, is it just open to do business tomorrow?" The man stopped Shen Chenghou, and while laughing, he couldn't help but think about how much the old Shen family's third room earned, and look at the new clothes of the people.

"Happy New Year, Fifth Uncle. Shen Chenghou clenched his fists and replied, but he didn't answer the words.

Several of the children also stood there obediently after calling someone, but it was not easy to say anything more.

All the way to the old house, almost everyone has to stand down and say a few words, now the Qixi family is not more than usual, who in this village does not say that their family is up, and those who are not to be seen in the past want to talk to now, it is very difficult to go this way, and it takes twice as much effort as normal.

"It's so cold outside, why aren't they in a hurry, and they're still standing there and talking. When he arrived at the door of the old mansion, Yunduo's face turned red, and he stretched out his hand to rub it and muttered.

"Isn't this our father and mother busy, I usually can't catch a figure, and I finally caught it, so don't you say a few words?" Jing Shengke said with a smile in his heart.

"What nonsense, what's the catch?" Jingwen patted his younger brother on the head, this kid has always spoken openly.

Jing Sheng shrank his head, smiled at his brother flatteringly, and didn't reply to his mouth, but let Jing Wen reach out and touch his head again, and a few children followed their father and mother in.

"Third brother and third sister-in-law, are you here?" Shen Huijun, who was looking outside, saw them, and hurriedly came over with a smile, took the things in his brother and sister-in-law's hands, and greeted him, "My mother has been talking about it several times." ”

The old house is warm and dry, as soon as you enter the house, there is a fragrance, it is estimated that what is being stewed in the kitchen pot, Qixi snorted and sniffed carefully, it should be elbow meat, and instantly remembered Ji Xian's little house.

The family entered the door, first one by one New Year's greetings, the people in the house also hurriedly smiled and replied, then sat down in a row on the stool below, Zhang lovingly beckoned the children to eat, but several children did not go over to take melon seeds and candy, in the past so many years have not been to dislike people, and now there are many people next to them staring at each other, as if to say that you are all separated, why do you still eat the things here, is that no one will be greedy for that bite of food.

Zhang's expression was dark, but she didn't say anything, she naturally knew why the children didn't eat, just looking at the way a few children were smiling and comforting her, she couldn't help but feel distressed for a while.

Shen Chenghou naturally saw it, he couldn't blame his own children, and he felt uncomfortable when he saw his mother like that, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to ask his father and mother how she was, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Shen Yun jumping over, standing in front of him and saying, "Third uncle, I'll give you a New Year's greeting." ”

Everyone in the room was taken aback by Shen Yunwan's actions, and they had all finished saying the auspicious words when they met just now, why did they come over and say it again?

"Good, good. Shen Chenghou didn't understand what was going on, and the people next to him were also surprised, so he was stunned for a moment and had to smile and reply.

"Third uncle, what about the New Year's money?" After finishing speaking, Shen Yunwan didn't walk away, but stretched out his hand and said with a smile.

Shen Chenghou was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he was immediately embarrassed, and looked up at the eldest brother on the side a little helplessly, and was also surprised to see his eldest brother.

Qixi was cold-faced, of course, Zhilu said that his father didn't prepare any New Year's money, but it's no wonder that her father, Shen Yunwan is going to do something, the Shen family didn't know if the Shen family gave New Year's money in previous years, anyway, their brothers and sisters have never gotten it, in this case, why should they ask her family?

"Yunduo, what are you doing? What do we want for New Year's money?" Shen Huijun saw it on the side, and hurriedly gave her sister-in-law a few looks, asking her to pull her ignorant niece away, but Yu Shi only watched the excitement from the sidelines, and didn't even move at all, so angry that he had to come over and pull his niece by himself.

"That's it, Yun Wan is obedient, our family doesn't have that rule. Jiang Shi saw that it was difficult for the two people in the third room to open their mouths, hesitated for a moment, and quickly came over with a smile.

"Why can't you ask for it?" Who would have thought that Shen Yunwan ignored the persuasion of the two of them, and said, "I give the third uncle a New Year's greeting, why don't you ask for a New Year's money? What are the rules? Who stipulates that you can't ask for it? Or does the third uncle not want to give it?"

Shen Chenghou became more and more embarrassed, and felt a little uncomfortable in the face of his little niece's aggressiveness, but he couldn't worry about a child, so he hurriedly touched his body, wanting to find some money, but when he came out in the morning, he only thought about holding a snack or something, and he didn't bring any money at all.

embarrassed to smile at Shen Yunwan and said: "Yunwan, the third uncle didn't bring any money today, and the third uncle will give you a red envelope when I go back, and a few children will also ......" (to be continued......)
