The next day, it was still early, but the atmosphere of the New Year had already spread in Lanzhou, in the air, in the sea breeze, and on the faces of every pedestrian.

The Lin family's courtyard was also lively early, Lin Wan'er was the first to get up, and deliberately went out to buy soy milk and fritters, which is unprecedented in the Lin family, but there should be a New Year's atmosphere, today is a luxury for the time being, eat soy milk and fritters for breakfast.

Lin Wan'er walked in the sun in that half-used and half-new padded jacket, with a faint smile on her face, she never felt so at ease, she was just the second child, only the second child.

Zhao Qian got up to help repair the kitchen door, and every time Lin Wan'er pushed the door closed, it creaked every time she pushed it closed, so she took advantage of the gap to repair it.

Today's Chinese New Year, Lin Qianyi didn't have to go to school, so he got up early and read some of the Four Books and Five Classics silently.

Lin Renzhong got up to help the three of Dabao get dressed, and the three of Dabao ran out with a roar, took out the Spring Festival couplets and firecrackers, and noisily wanted to paste the Spring Festival couplets and set off firecrackers.

Zhao Qian laughed, made some paste in the kitchen, moved two stools, and then stood on a stool with Lin Renzhong to paste Spring Festival couplets, and the three of Dabao shouted behind them, "The left side is tall, and the right side is short." ”

It took a few people a long time to paste the Spring Festival couplets.

Zhao Qian pinched his waist, clapped his hands, looked at the pasted Spring Festival couplets, and nodded with satisfaction. Although I have also pasted Spring Festival couplets in the palace, I have never felt this satisfaction.

At this time, Lin Wan'er came over with fried dough sticks in one hand and soy milk in the other, looked at everyone and said, "Yo, it's not bad." ”

Zhao Qian felt good about himself and said: "Of course, you don't look at who posted it?!" Just rely on this son......"

Lin Wan'er rolled her eyes and said, "Virtue!" ”

Everyone had a hearty breakfast in the front hall, and after eating breakfast, Lin Wan'er went to the kitchen and began to work on the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, the poorer she was, the more she attached importance to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner that was only once a year.

Zhao Qian followed behind him in a cramped kitchen.

Lin Wan'er said impatiently: "Go out, the kitchen is small, you have nothing to do and move forward, you can't help and drag your feet, if you are really idle, help the third child to help with homework." ”

Zhao Qian snorted, circled around Lin Wan'er like a little tail, and said: "Today's New Year, let the third child take a break, reading every day will make people stupid." Besides, I can do you a favor, let's do it a little! ”

In the front hall, Lin Hanlin got up and went out, smelling of wine all over his body, and he didn't wear a whole set of clothes, sitting on a chair with his buttocks, reaching out to pick up the fritters and chewing heavily, completely ignoring the people around him.

Lin Qianyi has always been at odds with Lin Hanlin, although he was unhappy with the behavior of the fourth child, but he didn't say a word.

Lin Renzhong couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "Fourth, pay attention to your behavior." ”

Lin Hanlin didn't raise his head, snorted coldly, completely ignoring Lin Renzhong's persuasion, ate fritters and drank soy milk, and ate the breakfast on the table.

Lin Renzhong slapped the table and said with some anger: "Fourth, you are so smart, can't you study hard?" Anyway, you have to be worthy of the eldest sister and the second brother, and you only know how to eat, drink and have fun every day, what kind of system does it become? ! Lin Renzhong has a lot of respect for the third brother, but he has no good impression of the fourth brother Lin Hanlin, and there is always a condescending feeling in his words between words.

Lin Hanlin didn't care, reached out and took the remaining fritters of Dabao and Baoyu and stuffed them into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Smart? Hmph, the really smart person is the third child, what kind of smart person am I? Isn't it the third brother? ”

Lin Qianyi grabbed his hands under the table, then slowly let go of his hands and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to help the eldest sister." With that, he got up and left.

Lin Renzhong stood up with a snort, stretched out his hand and pointed at Lin Hanlin, didn't say the last word, shook his sleeves fiercely, and went to the kitchen to help the eldest sister.

Dabao and the three of them followed one by one to the kitchen, leaving Lin Hanlin sitting in the front hall, staring at the oil flower in his hand in a daze, his expression was gloomy, the corners of his mouth grinned, and he wanted to cry, but when he heard Lin Wan'er's voice coming from the kitchen, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Mess around, mess around, make do with the kitchen if you have nothing to do, get out, get out!"

But no one went out.

Chop the dumpling filling and knead the dough, Lin Wan'er made dumplings in the front hall, and everyone did it.

A group of people moved the dough and dumpling filling to the front hall, but Lin Wan'er immediately regretted it, because a group of people didn't know how to make dumplings at all.

Zhao Qianbao's dumplings are cracked, and he boasts that it is a trendy way of making dumplings, which was introduced to the Great Wei Kingdom from the Nanyang side, and can infiltrate the delicious dumpling filling into the dumpling skin. Lin Wan'er didn't bother to expose this kind of lie.

Lin Qianyi was very serious and serious, but his hands were as hard as an iron pestle, and every movement was extremely stiff, as if he was fighting on the battlefield, and after a while, sweat stains oozed from his face, making others tired to watch.

Lin Renzhong is even more miserable, the dumpling skin is like red-hot black charcoal in his hand, no matter how you take it, it is not like that, and the dumplings wrapped out have the size of the bun.

Needless to say, Baoyu and Yubao have more flour on their faces than in their hands, and both of them have become little cats, but the two of them are still very serious and meticulous.

Lin Hanlin didn't go out, sat next to him, didn't say a word, lost his usual wandering form, and was a lot quieter.

On the contrary, the dumplings made by Dabao have become the most beautiful one, although the speed is not fast, but the dumplings are very good, and the corners are very warped.

Lin Wan'er laughed and said: "Dabao is so skillful, he will rely on this trick to ask for a daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Lin Wan'er also deliberately washed a few copper plates and wrapped them in dumplings, and by the way, wrapped a few sugar dumplings, whoever can eat this kind of dumplings will definitely be blessed and live a long life next year.

started to make dumplings well, because Zhao Gan took the flour and clicked Lin Wan'er's nose and it turned into a flour war, Lin Wan'er's hands were covered with flour to seek justice from Zhao Gan, but he didn't pay attention to wipe it on Lin Renzhong's face, Lin Renzhong reached out and wiped it on Dabao's face, Dabao wiped it on Baoyu's face, Baoyu wiped it on Yubao's face, Yubao turned his head and wanted to wipe it on Lin Qianyi's face, but he was timid in his heart and didn't dare to do it.

Lin Wan'er came out at this time, wiped it on Lin Qianyi's face, and touched Lin Hanlin's face by the way, and the whole dumpling was messed up into a pot of porridge, mixed with laughter and shouting.

Chen Xiaoxiao came to the Lin family's courtyard at this time, and as soon as he walked to the door, he heard the noise in the courtyard, and then saw the chaotic front hall, which was even more incredible.

Lin Wan'er felt embarrassed, and her face turned red all of a sudden, but she was covered by flour and couldn't see it. Lin Wan'er touched her face and beckoned Chen Xiaoxiao to sit down, looking really indecent.

Chen Xiaoxiao put down all the gifts in her hand and said: "Today's New Year, my sister has nothing to give, but some time ago, someone sent some special products, and I thought about sending some to Sister Wan'er." ”

Dabao saw a smirk on Chen Xiaoxiao's face, and stretched out his hand to shake it at Chen Xiaoxiao.

Lin Wan'er took Chen Xiaoxiao's little hand and said, "Come on, come here, what kind of gifts do you bring, it's too outward." ”

Chen Xiaoxiao smiled and replied: "It's all here, just bring some gifts, my sister also said that it is too outside, I think my sister is outside, right?!" ”

Lin Wan'er touched her brows, helpless for a while: "What a powerful Chen Xiaoxiao, this little mouth is really good at talking." ”

Chen Xiaoxiao took Lin Wan'er's hand, whispered a few words in her ear, and the two went to the back room, and then the laughter of the two often sounded in the back room.

Zhao Qian wondered outside, what were the two doing inside, he wanted to lie on the window and eavesdrop, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he could only sit in the front hall and drink tea.

Not only Zhao Gan, but also Lin Qianyi, Lin Hanlin, Lin Renzhong and Dabao were all very puzzled, their eyes were floating on the door of the inner room, if their eyes could push the door, the door would have been pushed open a long time ago.

After an hour, Chen Xiaoxiao helped Lin Wan'er out of the back room, and said, "Everyone come and see, isn't Sister Wan'er very beautiful?" ”

Lin Wan'er put on light makeup, smeared some rouge gouache on her face, painted her eyebrows lightly and clearly, and also aimed at the oblique red, dotted her lips, pasted the flower yellow, and stood there crisply, her big eyes became more aura, she looked up and smiled lightly, and the little woman looked full.

Zhao Qian was stunned on the spot, his head short-circuited for a while, and he completely forgot that he was pouring tea, and the tea splashed on his hand before he reacted with a sigh, how could Lin Wan'er be so beautiful?

The others are no better, Lin Qianyi, Lin Hanli and Lin Renzhong have been with Lin Wan'er for a long time, but they have never seen the eldest sister like this, and the eldest sister is so beautiful, it is really incredible.

Baoyu and Yubao were also stunned on the spot, and the eldest sister was the fairy who jumped out of the painting.

Dabao's watch was even more exaggerated, and he asked, "Xiaoxiao, eldest sister, where is it?" ”

Lin Wan'er in front of her was so beautiful that Dabao couldn't recognize it.

Lin Wan'er was very satisfied with the scene in the front hall, couldn't help laughing, and said, "Dabao, look at who I am?" ”

Dabao looked at it carefully and asked uncertainly, "Eldest sister?" ”

Lin Wan'er was even more satisfied, found a stool to sit down, and said, "Miss Ben is really naturally beautiful, and she is incredibly beautiful with a little makeup. Zhao Qian, am I right? ”

Zhao Qian covered his burned hand with one hand, and said while striking Lin Wan'er: "Normal." ”

Lin Wan'er immediately became angry, stood on the chair with one foot, crossed her waist with one hand, and said, "What do you mean by average?!" ”

Zhao Qian smiled and said in his heart, guessing like Lin Wan'er.

At noon, Chen Xiaoxiao had a meal in the Lin family's courtyard, very happy, and everyone gathered around the table to eat a simple meal. In the afternoon, the weather suddenly turned cloudy, and the weather was so unpredictable as it was close to the sea.

Chen Xiaoxiao left the courtyard, when he walked out of the courtyard, he felt a sense of loss in his heart, as if the door was separated from the outside was happiness, and when he went in, he was happy, and when he came out, he was still alone.

Everyone in the small courtyard looked forward to the stars and the moon and finally looked forward to the sun going down the mountain, Lin Wan'er put the dumplings into the pot, Zhao Qian packed up the fireworks and firecrackers and lined them up in various shapes in the yard, and Baoyu and Yubao were holding a fire fold in their hands.

Lin Wan'er took out the dumplings, lined up a pair of chopsticks on top of the bowl, and walked around the small yard with dumplings in both hands, which is the custom of Lanzhou, and the newly cooked dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve should be eaten by the gods in the sky first to show respect, and the rest should be eaten by themselves.

Although Lin Wan'er crossed over, she didn't believe in ghosts and gods, and the dumplings in her hand were not for the gods, but for the parents of this world. Lin Wan'er didn't know who her parents were before the crossing, and although she hadn't seen them after the crossing, she knew who they were, which may not be important to others, but it was very important to Lin Wan'er, really important.

Lin Wan'er gave an order, Baoyu and Yubao cheered and lit the fireworks primer, the firecrackers crackled, and the fireworks first rose into the sky like a whale's jet of water, and then bloomed like flowers, decorating the night sky with brilliant colors. The fireworks next door seemed to be summoned, and they burst into the air with a sound, and the whole sky was covered in colorful clothes, which was very beautiful.

Today is cloudy, the clouds are thick, it seems to be snowing, and the weather is a little cold, but the fireworks bring a little bit of brilliance to the sky, like little stars.

Lin Wan'er was moved and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful! If only there was a camera that could take a picture. ”

Zhao Qian was attracted by the fireworks in the sky and echoed: "Yes! ”

After lighting the fireworks and firecrackers, Lin Wan'er served the dumplings, and also prepared potato balls, sweet potato balls, chicken, duck and fish meat, etc., and everyone was happy to eat around the table.

A dumpling is rolled in vinegared garlic and swallowed whole, and the taste is delicious.

There is also an extra bowl of dumplings on the dining table, and the dumplings inside are high, like a mountain, which is reserved for the second Lin Chengping.

Lin Wan'er calculated that after everyone ate dumplings, they were only seven or eight points full, and they still had enough stomachs to eat some chicken, duck and fish. Lin Wan'er took out a jar of wine from the kitchen, poured it for everyone, and took a sip of wine on her stomach, and suddenly her whole body was warm.

Zhao Qian didn't know where to get a charcoal stove, lit it, the entire front hall became warm, and the charcoal stove burned not charcoal, but firewood, because the Lin family couldn't afford charcoal.

Lin Wan'er put a few pieces of sweet potatoes next to the charcoal stove and roasted some fragrant sweet potatoes. The sweet potato is flat and small, and it seems to have been shriveled and dehydrated, but Lin Wan'er was reluctant to lose it and kept it.

Lin Wan'er picked up another bowl of wine and said, "It's the New Year, the second child is not at home, but I think the second child has always been there and has never gone far." After speaking, he raised his head and drank dry, then took out a letter from his arms, and continued: "This is the letter that the second child brought back from the border gate, I have not opened it, and I have specially left it for everyone to read together tonight." ”

At this moment, snowflakes are floating outside, one by one.

(ps: 4000 words, is it considered a plus?) There are already ten more collections, not counted? Well, there's one more today. ）
