After eating the meal, Xu Rongrong and Ming's sister-in-law quickly cleaned up, and then a group of people, the man talked, chatted, and talked about the latest developments in the living room.

The woman went to clean up the room.

Gu Yixuan, Min Shiyan and others don't have a house in S City, so they naturally want to live in the Zhanjia Villa, Ji Fanyi has a house in S City, but it is lived by Ye Zi'an's uncle and aunt.

Before, Memorial En was also placed at Grandma and Grandpa's house, but because Grandma and Grandpa were partying with a large group of old men and old ladies, Memorial En didn't like it there, so Ye Zi'an didn't plan to go back to accompany the old man and old lady, anyway, they had a large group of friends to play with, and it was very lively.

So the three of them and their friends kept the New Year at Xu Rongrong's house.

It is said that it is a New Year's holiday, but in fact, it is a large group of friends playing together, they are all people who have been in Europe for a long time, and they have almost forgotten the meaning of the Spring Festival, and they feel that they have no feeling for this festival except for being able to get together with friends.

Xu Rongrong is okay, the lively atmosphere of the New Year when she was a child still remains in her heart, although it is impossible to have such a simple and lively Spring Festival now, but she still likes this festival more.

Zhan Yilin and Chen Haoran accompanied Liang Shuxian and Commander Zhan in the old house, although Xu Rongrong has not passed now, he has already told the old man that he will go back to visit the second elder on the seventh or eighth day of the junior high school.

As for Min Shiyan and Gu Yixuan, the first year of junior high school is not suitable for going back, so they should go back to City A to visit their respective parents in the second or third year of junior high school.

Anyway, this Chinese New Year's Eve, the war villa is going to be lively.

Thinking about it like this, Xu Rongrong's eyes and eyebrows were all smiling.

No, it was only halfway through the afternoon, but at three o'clock, she took Gu Yixuan to make noodles, and then mixed the chopped stuffing with the seasonings she bought, and prepared to make dumplings.

The Chinese tradition of the New Year is that dumplings must be eaten on Chinese New Year's Eve, and as for the reason, Xu Rongrong referred to some books and found some explanations.

There are many legends about eating dumplings during the New Year, one is to commemorate the opening of the world by Pangu and the end of the mixed state, and the other is to take the homonym of it and "hoarding", which means "full of food". In addition, the folk saying that eating dumplings is also related to Nuwa's creation of people. In order to make the ears not fixed, Nuwa pricked a small eye on the ears of the people, tied the ears with a thin thread, and put the other end of the thread in the mouth of the loess people to bite it, so that the ears could be considered to be good. In order to commemorate Nuwa's exploits, the common people wrapped dumplings, kneaded the shape of human ears with noodles, and filled them with stuffing (thread), and ate them with their mouths.

Dumplings have become an indispensable program food for the Spring Festival, and the reasons are: First, dumplings are shaped like ingots. People eat dumplings in the Spring Festival to take the sound of "fortune and treasure", the second is that the dumplings have filling, which is convenient for people to wrap all kinds of auspicious things into the filling, in order to place people's hopes for the new year.

So when Xu Rongrong was making dumplings, he also asked Bai Yi to secretly find a few pieces of candy and wrap them in dumplings.

If anyone eats it, it will be sweet and sweet for a lifetime.

In the afternoon, the men chatted and played chess, or discussed some things, and the women either dressed themselves or helped make dumplings, and it was finally dark.

In fact, when it comes to helping to make dumplings, it is actually Wen Shanshan who helped roll out the dumpling skin, and Gu Yixuan helped to wrap it, as for Ye Zi'an, this guy doesn't know how to make dumplings at all, and he has a beautiful face.

Then Xu Rongrong glared at Ye Zi'an, Ye Zi'an stuck out his tongue, and ran out of the kitchen with five children under the pretext of watching the children.

Xu Rongrong sighed, and didn't expect this guy, he only pinched out beautiful dumplings with Gu Yixuan.

Time passed bit by bit, and finally wrapped the dumplings, because they were too full at noon, so now everyone is not particularly hungry, Xu Rongrong thought about it, put the dumplings in the kitchen, then wiped his hands, and went back to the bedroom.

When he found his mobile phone in the bedroom, Xu Rongrong hesitated for a moment, but still made a call to Bai Sheng.

Now that everyone has gathered, even Zhan Yilin and Chen Haoran, who are not here, are accompanying their parents, but this guy doesn't know what he's doing, and Bai Yi is back, as Bai Yi's brother, he has the right to see his younger brother.

With that in mind, the call went out.

After a while, the other end of the phone was connected, and a man came in a low voice with Sven, "Hey? ”

"Bai Sheng?" Xu Rongrong said slowly, as if thinking about how to speak, "That, I made a lot of dumplings at home, and Bai Yi is also back, do you want to come over?" ”

"I, Rongrong, are you inviting me?" Bai Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a daze.

Xu Rongrong stiffened, not knowing why he asked like this, but since the words had already been spoken, she could only nod stiffly, "Yes, where are you?" ”

I don't know why, why does she feel a little embarrassed, well, she must be thinking too much.

It is four or five hours from J city to S city, and when Bai Sheng comes over, the water is cold, well, he is reckless.

Thinking like this, Xu Rongrong wanted Bai Sheng not to come.

As a result, before he could speak, Bai Sheng said lightly, "I was in the apartment last time, and I will be there soon." ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Xu Rongrong was left alone looking at his phone in a daze, revealing an unbelievable expression.

It is really surprising that Bai Sheng was actually in Xu Rongrong's apartment last time, and it was only twenty or thirty minutes away from here.

But since he will be able to come soon, Xu Rongrong is also relieved.

Although she doesn't know why, she and Bai Sheng always seem to be a little embarrassed, but as a friend and her son's brother, Xu Rongrong still hopes that Bai Sheng is good. 、

Putting down the phone, Xu Rongrong changed his clothes and went out.

In the living room, everyone was playing together, and the laughter of the children and the hearty laughter of Ye Zian filled the entire living room.

Xu Rongrong was relatively quiet, she chose to sit next to Zhan Yiyang, quiet but kept smiling and watching everyone play.

About half an hour, there was a knock on the door, Uncle Ming went to open the door, and Xu Rongrong knew that Bai Sheng was coming.

Everyone was stunned when he came in, but everyone knew about how he helped Xu Rongrong before, so they didn't reject him or dislike him, and Wen Shanshan had a good relationship with him.

As for Bai Yi, he has already pounced happily, after all, he is a brother who is connected by blood, and the kind of family affection between bones and blood does not need to get along for too long to be very intimate.

"Brother, have you eaten?" Bai Yi looked at this brother who was more than twenty years older than him with great concern.

Bai Sheng smiled faintly, his eyes flickered on Xu Rongrong's face, and then moved away quickly

Although he was surprised by the number of people in the room, he smiled very indifferently when he thought that these were Xu Rongrong's friends.

These people have all met Bai Sheng, although they don't have a particularly good relationship, but based on the fact that he helped Xu Rongrong and is handsome, he was almost forgotten by everyone when he led the organization as a difficult fighter before.

Everyone had heard it at that time, and to be honest, everyone didn't resent Bai Sheng, but sympathized with him, but he couldn't forget what he had done, so it was not good to be an ordinary friend.

"Bai Sheng was invited by me, I think Bai Yi must be thinking about his brother." Xu Rongrong said lightly beside him.

"Hello everyone." Bai Sheng smiled indifferently, his attitude was not very close, but it would not make people feel alienated, and there was a feeling that it was not good or bad.

Everyone also greeted him one after another, and even Zhan Yiyang, who had been reading the newspaper next to him, shook hands with him.

After a while, the room was bustling again.

Although Bai Sheng came, he didn't participate in a group of people having fun, he just sat on the side, feeling this beautiful scene quietly but warmly.

After a while, Sister-in-law Ming began to cook dumplings, and then served them bowl by bowl.

The children's bowls are relatively smaller, the adults' bowls are a little bigger, and the men's bowls are a little overfilled.

"Let's eat dumplings, there is not enough food in the bowl, there is still something in the pot." Xu Rongrong shouted loudly.

At the same time, Uncle Ming lit firecrackers outside, and the crackling sound added a strong Spring Festival smell to the villa, even Ye Zi'an and others, who didn't feel much about the Spring Festival in China because they had been abroad for a long time, were also full of joy.

I have to say that the Chinese New Year really has its unique taste.

While speaking, everyone went to the restaurant, more than a dozen bowls were placed on the table, some were big and some small, some were more and some less, everyone washed their hands, all the way to the past, everyone sat down, picked up the rice bowl, it was really a little more and a less.

Xu Rongrong felt that it was already the Chinese New Year, so lively, so he wanted to call Sister-in-law Ming and Uncle Ming to eat together, and make a scene, but Sister-in-law Ming refused.

She smiled and said, "It's okay for the old couple to eat some in the kitchen, and the lady is still entertaining the guests."

Xu Rongrong still wanted to call them, but was insisted on by Sister-in-law Ming, so she could only shake her head and give up, but she instructed Sister-in-law Ming, and the side dishes that were eaten on dumplings were left for Sister-in-law Ming and Uncle Ming.

Leaving a part of each dish to the old man, Xu Rongrong took the side dishes to the table.

At this time, the 10,000 guns had been released, and Uncle Ming walked in with a smile and went into the kitchen to eat dumplings with Sister-in-law Ming.

Everyone at the table also started the chopsticks, as the old saying goes, "food is not silent", but none of the people present complied with it, and perhaps they would abide by it when they were with the elders in the family, but a group of friends were together, and no one complied, but they chatted while eating one by one.

Xu Rongrong is a kind woman, while eating, she went to the kitchen to get a crystal clear bowl, took out part of the dumplings left in the pot, and then insisted on keeping a part for the two old men.

They served Xu Rongrong for several years, but they always insisted on their identity and refused to eat with their masters, although this was nothing in the eyes of Xu Rongrong and Zhan Yiyang, but they were always very persistent.
