Chapter 61: Chinese New Year
If you want to talk about the deepest relationship with these cousins and cousins, Xu Zhen feels that he is still the most compatible with Yang Haobo! After all, the age difference between the two is very small, and they grew up together!
Of course, with many cousins, cousins, cousins and cousins on my grandmother's side, Xu Zhen still has a sibling relationship! Speaking of which, these cousins and cousins are not bad at heart. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
People who have a bad heart and look down on people, Xu Zhen hasn't found out yet, at least on the surface, everyone gets along very well! Perhaps in most cases, there is not much entanglement in the accounts of economic transactions, and only money and interests will turn people who are like brothers against each other!
Maybe it's because everyone lives a decent life, no one is rich enough to flow oil, and no one is so poor that they can't open the pot, they are just ordinary people who only want a peaceful life in this society!
As the saying goes, it's not a family that doesn't enter a door!
If any relatives can't get along with everyone, he won't appear in today's New Year's atmosphere.
Xu Zhen was in charge of killing the fish.
The children of those cousins, cousins, and cousins are running all over the hill to play! Anyway, this place is not the first time they have come, and Xu Zhen is too lazy to greet them! The youngest of them is also five or six years old, and the older one is no more than two years younger than Xu Zhen, and they are all about to get married, besides, they have Li Xiaole to lead! Can't lose it!
Although their hometown is in the countryside, these big children and children all grew up in the city and lived in the city, and they may only return to the countryside once or twice a year, and their childhood memories are completely different from Xu Zhen's childhood memories, although they are still the same rural household registration in terms of identity.
Xu Zhen's childhood memories include going into the water to catch crabs, going up to trees to dig birds' nests, and even playing in the field covered in mud.
But there is no such memory in the eyes of this new generation of children, they want to yearn for everything in the countryside, but because their parents are not in the countryside, they can only keep the memories of the children in the city, pay attention to the car when they go out, take the crosswalk line, and don't talk to strangers.
Although innocence and childhood fun do not necessarily have to be in the countryside to be obtained, after all, Xu Zhen does not envy the childhood of children in the city, but the children in the city will be amazed by everything in the countryside.
All relatives are back!
Dinner!
The reunion dinner is very rich!
Chicken, duck, fish, fresh fruits and vegetables.
Four tables, each filled with bowls. Adults and children eat comfortably and happily!
For the taste of the dishes, everyone is full of praise.
Except for the salt, sauce and vinegar, which are industrial products bought in the town, all the other ingredients come from Lin Yue'e's industrious hands.
Most of these relatives have lived in the city for many years, and their hometown has not grown vegetables or cooked on the fire, and they have been looking forward to the taste of their hometown for a whole year!
In addition, the radish and cabbage grown by Xu Zhen with nutrient solution this year have a different taste, and everyone is still full of food.
……
Every year, Xu Zhen's cousins, cousins, cousins, and cousins will give some gifts and gifts for the New Year, and Xu Zhen makes his mother laugh at this, even if he is not bad for the money! It's not that she should take this money, but these family affections can also be reflected in these hundreds of dollars!
Money isn't just about money at times like this!
When Xu Zhen goes to his uncle's house for the New Year, he will also give some gifts and gifts.
This is again called the exchange of courtesy.
No one felt that was wrong.
Of course, because these relatives are farming in their hometown alone, when these cousins and cousins leave, Lin Yue'e will always pack some of the family's souvenirs for their family!
Whether it's sweet potatoes, taro or green cabbage radish.
Xu Zhen's family hasn't planted rice in the past two years, otherwise they would even load some rice on them!
As in previous years, Lin Yue'e cut a piece of pork for each of so many nephews and nieces, packed a few sweet potatoes, and Chinese cabbage and radish planted by Xu Zhen.
There are also lemon fruits, grapefruits, oranges.
These dishes and fruits are a great thing that is simply not likely to be eaten in town!
There are too few chickens in the family, Lin Yue'e only gives one to the family of her three brothers, and one to Xu Zhen's aunt's family, and there are no nephews and nieces.
The cars of several cousins were filled with Lin Yue'e's friendship with their nephews and nieces.
Tang Yuan, a cousin-in-law whose family lives in the county seat, told Xu Zhen that he had been fishing at home for a long time, and he felt that Xu Zhen's crucian carp tasted too good! I've never eaten such delicious fish.
Of course, Xu Zhen welcomes them to come! Xu Zhen also considered opening farmhouses, fishing and leisure projects in the future, but this is for the future.
Relatives left one after another.
This reunion dinner, Xu Zhen ate very happily.
At least it's happier than the days when a person is working hard every year.
……
After eating this reunion dinner, Xu Zhen and Xu Nian went to the reunion dinner of several relatives respectively, and this year has really arrived.
On the thirtieth day of the lunar month, paste couplets and clean the incense.
At night, it's Chinese New Year's Eve.
This year is a little different from the past, Xu Huan used to spend the New Year at her husband's house, but this year, she no longer has a husband's family! She became the daughter who had not been married for many years.
From the beginning of dark, the whole village was filled with the sound of firecrackers and fireworks.
The little girl always likes to watch brilliant fireworks, so Xu Zhen also went to buy a few boxes, ate Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and Xu Zhen and Li Xiaole set off fireworks in the yard.
He wasn't very interested in watching the gala!
"Uncle, our family is going to keep vigil tonight!"
Xu Zhen, who originally wanted to go to bed early, had to nod his head and agree.
So, he had to take his little niece to the house to watch TV and feel the festive atmosphere of the people of the whole country.
But this girl didn't last until ten o'clock and fell asleep in Xu Zhen's arms.
Xu Zhen was so drowsy by the atmosphere on TV that he waited with his parents and sister until twelve o'clock, and then lit the remaining two boxes of fireworks with the New Year's bell.
The sound of firecrackers bids farewell to the old year and welcomes the new year with joy!
Next year must be a crucial year for Xu Zhen.
At this moment, he received more than a dozen short messages on his mobile phone.
It's not a mass post!
This at least proves that at least ten people are also keeping the New Year! And remember him when he is happy with his relatives!
Among them are Li Yan, Lin Sen, Lin Miaoyan, Shen Ling, his roommate and best brother Hu Ke.
Li Yan even told him that she would have a bold decision after the New Year. Xu Zhen asked her what her decision was, but Li Yan kept it a secret. This made Xu Zhen not know what the hell this girl was going to do.
Although he slept late, Xu Zhen and his family got up very early, and Li Xiaole pouted and said that he was very unhappy for his uncle's regret that he didn't wake up to listen to the zero o'clock bell!
Xu Zhen hurriedly used a big red envelope for New Year's money to make the little kid laugh immediately.
This morning, I'm afraid Li Xiaole is the happiest, grandma, grandparents, mother-in-law, grandparents, all gave him New Year's money!
Xu Zhen also gave his cousin's two children a red envelope for New Year's money.
On the morning of the first day of the new year, eat rice balls.
After eating the rice balls, the whole family went to the grave to send blessings to their ancestors and longed to receive blessings from their ancestors.
Today's weather is a little warm, a little drizzle, in the eyes of the old family, the rain on the first day of the new year is a good omen, indicating that the coming year's wind and rain will be smooth!
This is also looking forward to a bumper harvest in your heart, you can't say that the wind and rain will not be smooth in the coming year because it rains on the first day, so don't you feel uncomfortable for yourself!
These are good wishes!
