Thirty nights this meal was eaten earlier than usual, very early Zhou let Qiao Hong go to boil water, and so on flat food out of the pot, Zhou let Wang Changshun go to worship God, Qiao Zhen heard the sound of firecrackers outside one after another, but because firecrackers are expensive, the Wang family did not buy them, Qiao Zhen asked to know that the people who set off firecrackers are flat food, Zhou told Qiao Zhen that the earlier this dinner is eaten today, the better the wheat grows in the coming year, and the earlier it is ripe, there is such a particular, Qiao Zhen smiled.

After eating flat food, he didn't rest, and began to cook meat, and the Wang family bought a pig's head and bought five catties of meat, all of which had to be cooked.

The meat was cooked first, and a small bag was placed in it, which contained large ingredients and peppercorns, fennel, and a whole clove of garlic, ginger and green onions.

The meat is bubbling in the pot, and the Zhou or plum blossoms will turn over the meat groove when they are cooked. In this way, it is better cooked, and the pig's head is boiled when the meat is cooked, and the fire in the stove house is shining, which means that the coming year will be prosperous.

Qiao Zhen didn't keep vigil at night and went to bed early, because she had to get up early tomorrow, and she was afraid that she would not have energy.

The next day, she was called up, and when she got dressed and went out, Zhou and Meihua had been busy in the stove house for a long time.

Qiao is red, and Qiao Zhen also helps with the vegetables.

The dish on the morning of the first day of the new year is hearty, four cold dishes, a cold lotus root slices, cut the lotus root into slices and blanch it with hot water, put a little vinegar on the blanching time, so that the lotus root will be crispy, and then cool the water, add Qiaozhen raw haode garlic yellow, and add seasonings.

A cold shredded potato, this is still eaten after Qiaozhen came, and the Wang family used to eat fried potato strips when they ate potatoes. The potatoes here are dough, and the taste is okay when they are fried.

A cold salad with pig ears. Now there are no cucumbers, and Qiaozhen also put some garlic into it.

A cold pork liver. The pork liver is boiled salty, and a little garlic is put on top to make the color.

In addition, four hot dishes are prepared, a fried stew, the stew is made of vermicelli, the broken vermicelli is mixed with broken cabbage leaves and noodles and starch, and then put on the cage grate, put on the cage cloth, pour the mixed haode on it, cover the head and steam. When steamed, it is a thick lump. Cut it into slices and fry it when you eat it, it's very strong, and it has more texture than jelly.

A piece of meat fried cabbage, there are no vegetables in winter, only radish, cabbage, potatoes, and lotus root. There is nothing else, so that's all there is to it for the side dishes.

A plate of fried eggs, a plate of large meat. Neither chickens nor fish, chickens. The Wang family is reluctant to kill, and they can't buy it, and there are very few fish here. The fish is very expensive, even if you buy it, the Wang family will not do it.

Hot and cold add up to eight dishes. This is already very rich for the Wang family, and it is a cost.

Busy with the meal. Wang Changshun led the family to kowtow to Chen's first, and Chen put on new clothes, happily said yes, and gave Chengzi and Shengzi two pennies for the New Year's money.

It was not yet dawn when they were all on the table, and the food was placed in Chen's house, because it was a reunion, Chen had to be brought with him, and Chen just didn't go to the table, but she was also happy to see Sun Nan and Dinu. Chengzi yawned a little, and Shengzi's eyes couldn't open a little, but this didn't affect the atmosphere.

Wang Changshun said some auspicious words, he was going to drink two glasses, but he couldn't find the wine, Qiaozhen asked him not to ask in private, and he didn't say anything more.

The family is happily eating, and the staple food is dumplings. Qiaozhen ate cold dishes, it was really cold, and she shivered in her mouth, but she still ate some, which is what it means.

After eating, there are still dishes left, which are to be eaten at noon, when to finish eating and when to pull down.

The first year of junior high school is not allowed to spend money, and there is nothing to do, and generally the boys go out to play crazy, and there are many people who run into the door. Men in a bunch, women in a bunch chattering.

Qiaozhen went out for a walk, looked at the fields and came back, and there was nothing to do, which was really rare and pure.

In the second day of junior high school, early in the morning, Zhou was busy, today is the day to go back to her parents' home, she was the second year of junior high school before marrying her daughter-in-law, but she married her daughter-in-law, she couldn't go back with her daughter-in-law, and someone had to take care of her family, so Yuhua and plum blossoms went back to her parents' house in the second year of junior high school, and Zhou's returned to her parents' house in the fourth year of junior high school.

When you go back to your mother's house, you have to bring a gift, generally four kinds of etiquette, the conditions haode bring good things, and the poor conditions bring poor, so the four things do not stipulate what must be something.

A few years ago, Zhou's daughter-in-law prepared a knife of meat, a cabbage, a handful of green onions, and the other was informal. But then the days became more and more difficult, and when the year came, the Zhou family prepared a cabbage, a radish, a green onion, and a potato.

This year, Zhou also prepared four gifts, a knife of meat, a pound of white noodles, a handful of green onions, and a cabbage. Yuhua and Meihua are very satisfied, although this kind of gift is not the heaviest, it may be able to handle it, it will not make people laugh, and it can stand in her mother's house.

As soon as they left, there were Chen, Wang Changshun, Zhou, Qiaozhen, Qiao'e, Qiaohong and San'er left in the house, and they were suddenly much deserted.

In the second year of junior high school, there was no flat food, so I boiled vegetable soup at noon, cut some tofu slices in it, put some meatballs and vermicelli, so that it was rice.

In the second half of the day, the jade flowers and plum blossoms are back, and the basket is filled with a return gift, and the general return gift is the same, Qiaozhen looked at the sister-in-law's basket with a green onion. The second sister-in-law's basket was filled with meat, which was about half of what they brought, which was already a generous gift.

Yuhua pouted, in fact, she was not comfortable, her mother was okay after she went back, but her brother and daughter-in-law were not very happy, thinking that she took less meat, saying that there was no meat prepared at home in the New Year, just waiting for her to take back the meat, she could eat a good meal, but Yuhua brought back less meat, and she couldn't eat hard, which made her very unhappy.

She said that her family is better now, and she doesn't want to help her mother's family, and the money is held by the sister-in-law who was taken back, which is really incompetent.

Yuhua and her brother and daughter-in-law fried a few words, and said from the bottom of her heart that she felt that Qiaozhen was still good now, at least some of the money she earned could be handed over to the family, and she would bring some food to Chengzi in a hurry, and also buy things for the family, and cut some meat from time to time, which was really good, and she also taught Chengzi to endorse it. also said that the second half of the year was better, let Chengzi go to private school, although she didn't say it, but she knew that it was a good thing, so she and her brother and daughter-in-law had a fight.

Chengzi heard the concubine (aunt) say bad things about the aunt, he was very angry, and he and his mother collided with the concubine.

Chengzi's grandmother can only do things and things are old, and her daughter-in-law hurts as much, but her daughter-in-law is pregnant, and that is her eldest grandson, she can't make her daughter-in-law unhappy, or she won't show her face every day, so she scolded her daughter.

Yuhua is also pregnant, and she usually thinks about her mother's family in her heart, but now she is scolded, and she doesn't feel good in her heart.

Chengzi saw that his mother was wronged and shouted to go back, saying that he would not come back again, they almost came back without eating, zuihou or Yuhua's father came forward to persuade him, only to finish the meal, and came back after chatting, which is why Yuhua's maiden family is far away and the plum blossom is almost back together.

As for the return gift, it was prepared by Yuhua's brother and daughter-in-law, Yuhua saw the green onion, and she was so angry that she almost didn't scold, but her brother and daughter-in-law also said that if it weren't for this etiquette, she would let Yuhua go back with an empty basket.

Come back and see the plum blossom return gift, Yuhua is even more unhappy, she knows that Meihua's family are honest people, father and mother are real, sister-in-law and brother and daughter-in-law are also doing well, nothing to provoke, usually Meihua to the mother-in-law's house to bring things, her sister-in-law and brother and daughter-in-law did not say a word, look at people, think about themselves, Yuhua heart aggrieved panic, can't help crying.

"What's going on? I didn't say anything, what are you nervous about! Zhou asked puzzled.

"I, I'm going to bring back a green onion, my mother is definitely not happy, it's not that I don't want to bring it, it's yes. It's ......" Yuhua couldn't stop crying, very aggrieved.

"Milk, my aunt is not a thing, she thinks my mother brings less meat, said that she didn't cut the meat at home and waited for my mother to take the meat to eat, she also said that our family's money is for my aunt to take, saying that my mother has no ability, saying that my aunt has no face, said a lot of bad things, my mother and I quarreled with my sister, she gave us back a green onion back, my mother quarreled with her, I didn't quarrel, don't blame my mother." Chengzi told the story again.

Zhou understood, but she didn't say anything, after all, it was her daughter-in-law's mother's family, don't look at her daughter-in-law is very sad now, she thinks her mother's family is too much, but if she says something unpleasant, then her daughter-in-law should have an opinion about herself.

"Zhongla, don't cry, didn't my mother say anything, take everything back, if you have a green onion, don't cry, my mother will make you something to eat." Zhou persuaded.

"Mother, aren't you angry?" Yuhua wiped her tears and looked at Zhou in astonishment.

"How can that? Go wash your face and rest, make a black meal. "Zhou is really a good mother-in-law, although she is usually not used to seeing her daughter-in-law and will quarrel, but she will not criticize her daughter-in-law when she encounters something.

"Xiexie Masume." Yuhua said sincerely, and then went out to wash her face twice.

There are three remaining Zhou and Qiaozhen sisters in the stove house.

"Mother, you are so good." Qiao Hong said as she lit the fire.

"Hey, compare your heart to your heart, you are all mothers, and my mother also hopes that you will not be angry with your mother-in-law when you marry in the future. Therefore, as a mother-in-law, it is better to give her daughter-in-law less anger. Zhou said truthfully, and after she finished speaking, she glanced at Qiao Zhen again.

Qiao Zhen didn't understand what her mother meant by looking at her, she just smiled slightly.

"My eldest sister turned out to be that mother-in-law......" Qiao Hong's words were not finished, she was afraid that the eldest sister would feel uncomfortable. (To be continued......)
