Chapter 321: Mrs. Luo's helplessness
Hu Sanjin is a smart person, and his mother-in-law is timid in front of people, and he is also disgraceful. hurriedly spoke: "Auntie! You just sit there, this is a round table, there is no difference between host and guest, sit as you like! ”
Hu Jinniu's legs are not completely healed, and he still walks with crutches to support. When I didn't have to come out at home before, I didn't feel anything, I just knew that I was very beautiful and stable with my father. As soon as he came out, so many people saw him walking with a crutch, and he unconsciously felt very inferior, so he looked a little depressed and awkwardly sat next to his grandmother silently. Hu Sanjin likes this sensible eldest son very much, and has always paid attention to him, but when he saw that he seemed to be in a bad mood, he asked with concern: "Taurus, but your leg hurts again?" ”
When his aunt heard this, she suddenly became nervous: "Isn't it painful?" Yesterday you told me you were going to be ready, so what's the matter? ”
Taurus shook his head embarrassedly, "Daddy, Auntie!" I don't have pain in my legs, but I don't feel comfortable on crutches. ”
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good if it's not!" You try to sit as much as you can, don't move around and don't have to hold that thing. ”
"Hmm!"
Everyone in the Lai family over there was also seated, and the old man asked the eldest grandson: "Why do so many people eat together for your New Year's dinner?" How can you be busy?! ”
Lai Mingxun was very excited because he saw all the people in the family, and he couldn't keep it down, and he talked a lot: "We also ate with so many people last year, and many people were busy together. Eat as much as you want, eat whatever you want, eat candy after eating, eat melon seeds and peanuts, and perform programs. It's fun! We also put on our own shows for people to see, so we can play whatever we want. It's so much fun and delicious, I'm afraid you won't be able to make it this year! You're finally here. Hahaha! That's nice! Ha ha! It's really good! ”
Grandma couldn't help but laugh on the side: "This kid is happy and stupid!" ”
His younger siblings were obviously not on the same channel as them, and they were anxious why they didn't serve the food yet?
It's not that they're in a hurry, a lot of the children sitting at the table are in a hurry—why haven't they served the food yet?
Soon I heard someone shouting, "If you don't have a table, hurry up and serve the food immediately." ”
Immediately after that, Xiucai in uniform fur coats, coaches, and all the older children who have left the school have already worked, more than 30 people are serving food on trays in rows.
This year is different from last year, and the dishes are different from ordinary people's New Year's dishes. The first to be put on the table were two small stoves and two large ear pots. Then fill the pot with half a pot of milky white bone broth, one not spicy and the other spicy, and light a charcoal fire and start to burn. After that, the food is actually served!
There are cooked beef, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, fish and other meats placed on separate plates, there are also thinly sliced raw beef and mutton slices in the middle, and there are washed chrysanthemum, coriander, yellow heart black, vermicelli, kelp silk, beef spinal cord, prawns, lotus root slices, pumpkin slices, and sweet potato slices are all placed next to the table in different categories. A four-tier storage shelf made of bamboo. In the middle of the table, there are two bowls of dipping sauce for you to take yourself.
In addition, chestnut roasted chicken, sweet potato sesame balls, boiled vermicelli in chicken soup, and meat balls made with fried rice, all four dishes are specially made for children, and they are only available when they sit at the children's table.
There were also a dozen or so tables that were empty and unoccupied. But it is also full of pots, dishes and chopsticks, all kinds of meat dishes, and vegetarian dishes. Because of the customs of this place. That is, the New Year's dinner must not be an empty table, it doesn't matter if someone sits or no one sits, but it must be put on the dishes, chopsticks, wine and food to make a look.
After placing the stove, pots, dishes, dishes, chopsticks, wine, etc., the firecrackers began to be set off, and then it was still the blessing of the old lady Wang. After the blessing, he specially told the adults to take the children to eat this hot pot, don't burn it!
Because Anzi and Xiaolong were both admitted to Xiucai, the grandfather of Beidi who got the news also came with Daman. When he came, he also brought the genealogy of the Wang family. For the descendants of the two heads, both men and women have added it. also specially recorded the location, time, and ranking of Anzi and Xiaolong in the examination.
After the grandfather of the north finished speaking, he also stood up, looked very excited, and said a few words of emotion in a very loud voice, and he was very surprised to stir up the atmosphere. As soon as everyone started eating, someone came over with wine glasses to toast the two uncles and nephews of the Wang family (a grandfather and a grandfather) who were about the same age. Then everyone who could drink at each table came over with wine glasses to toast the two lords, and the aisles around the table were full of people who wanted to come and toast. Everyone held wine glasses and chopsticks, standing and eating, which was even more jubilant and lively than when they had the New Year's dinner last year.
Everyone was eating, drinking, and chatting, and it didn't take long for there to be a lot of adults and children nearby who came to have a New Year's dinner and waited to watch the show and watch the show.
This year, the people around Hepu Town, because of the nesting, and the town's bazaar can sell some home-made handicrafts, and their lives are okay. Although the New Year's dinner is not as rich as the Wang family, it can also ensure that the wine is drunk, the rice is full, and the meat and vegetables are enough. So, the kids weren't as hungry as they were last year. However, since someone is coming and rushing to have the New Year's dinner, it is necessary to invite them to sit down and have the New Year's dinner together.
The customs of this place, the head of the family will like to come to the family when they are having the New Year's dinner, even if they are beggars, they will warmly invite people to sit down and eat the New Year's dinner together, which indicates that there will be more people in the coming year. And the invitee will not politely refuse, otherwise the host family will be displeased. In this way, people came while eating, but the dozen or so empty tables were filled. Later, people came again and couldn't sit down, so they could only squeeze and sit some more! Because there is a hot pot with charcoal fire, you don't have to worry about people eating cold food later.
This year's New Year's dinner was much longer than last year's, so when all the people at the last table had eaten, they immediately removed all the tables, leaving only the stools in a few circles and placed on the periphery. Immediately afterwards, the harvest annual party began, and even the candy, melon seeds, and peanuts in the middle were too late.
The host is also the chief housekeeper Shi Jingxuan, who first briefly introduced the harvest status of thousands of acres of fields and barren mountains and livestock in Liujialing, 200 acres of fields and barren mountains and livestock in the town, 100 acres of fields in Wangjiazhuang, reservoirs and dams and livestock.
The reason why the income from these fields is made public is also Erya's idea. She felt that it was just empty words to convince the people of reasonable farming. There is no way for them to believe what kind of high income there will be. They will only believe it if they come up with solid figures. will really be willing to do it.
Only when the majority of people live a prosperous life will the needs of all aspects be improved, and finally this era can reach an unpredictable height, and Erya will also have a sense of achievement in promoting social progress with advanced technology. What's the point if only one of your own family is rich enough to rival the country, but the living state of the whole society is still not improved like that?!
Even though most of the people in the audience knew about the incredible high income, listen to it again. I still can't help but sigh.
After introducing the income of the field, skip the income of the various workshops and other commercial areas (these of course need to be kept secret, except for the big treasurer, the bookkeeper and the owner's house. There is no need for others to know. He praised several outstanding employees by name and explained the reasons for the awards. After that, it's the representative to speak, and these are the basic routines. Needless to say.
This year's program was all prepared by the children themselves. Erya really doesn't have that time. However, the children's funny cells and the depth of their thoughts are absolutely beyond your imagination, and they are all geniuses.
'Playing the harp to the cow' was borrowed by them, but what they played to the cow was not that the old cow was indifferent, but that the old cow jumped to the music, and then happily gave birth to two calves. The audience laughed so much that they almost blew up the shed! Especially when the child who plays the calf stumbles and can't get up, it is coke and distressing.
Then there are eggplants, peppers, and cucumbers fighting for territory, which is very funny and profound. It was useless for each of them to fight for what they could, and in the end they had to do what the peasant uncle wanted. Each is in place, and it blossoms and bears fruit properly.
Of course, the aquarium family is indispensable to have a show, and the eight kings want beauty pageants. Prime Minister Gui Cheng tried every means to get his granddaughter elected, and then there was a series of hilarious farces. The old ladies couldn't catch their breath when they laughed, and they couldn't help but watch it, and as a result, the audience was full of dissonant sounds of "cough cough" that couldn't breathe.
After the harvest celebration, there will be tea and candy, peanuts, melon seeds, and the performance venue is also divided into two, one is specially for the elderly to invite a homeless troupe to sing, and the other is a New Year's party made by the young people themselves, blowing, playing, singing and dancing, and playing with themselves.
This year's New Year's party is also much longer than last year's, in addition to letting dozens of women who have been arranged early in the morning come out in advance to make dumplings, others also watch the play as usual, play and play.
After dinner, before the dumplings could be sent back, very big snowflakes fell in the sky. The children were just unhappy that they couldn't continue to play, and in the blink of an eye, they screamed because of the goose-feather snow. One by one, they jumped and jumped, excitedly chasing after me in the thick smoke and white fog of snowflakes.
The old lady of the Luo family, who had never had such a lively and interesting New Year, did not remember that the big things she had been thinking about today had not been done until she returned to her warm and warm home. It wasn't until her son-in-law handed her several red envelopes and asked her to send them to her grandchildren that she remembered it for a while, but she also knew that the general trend was gone, and it was useless to make trouble. After taking a few red envelopes wrapped in red paper, I knew that this was a small silver coin that weighed at least one or two!
Dissatisfied, he said angrily: "Hmph! If you have money, you will have a big face! Can a child be guilty of giving so much money? However, she is a smart person, and no matter how dissatisfied she is, she will not say it in her mouth, offending her grandchildren is a small matter, and if this son-in-law changes the surname of the children in a fit of anger, it will kill her.
She clenched her hand hard, and finally gave them the New Year's money one by one under the eager eyes of her grandchildren. The children got the New Year's silver, and they happily took it out one by one to compare which one looked better.
It turned out that these were all silver pieces in the shape of animals, weighing about one tael of pigs, puppies, and tigers, which Erya had entrusted to the silverware shop to help make, which were used for children to make New Year's money and New Year's red envelopes. Hu Sanjin also came back with a lot of tricks, and used it for crushing and New Year's red envelopes for his children. (To be continued......)
