Chapter Eighty-Six: The New Year

In the house, the sisters set up the makeup box, facing the mirror, Hua Yun braided Hua Yu's hair, Hua Yu played with the silver jewelry she bought today, put it in one by one and then took it out.

She had pierced ears and wore small studs, but now she felt pain and didn't dare to touch her ears.

Wan Shi walked over and said curiously: "I haven't seen this weaver yet." ”

Hua Yun smiled slightly, she also learned from others when she was a child, when she was in the research institute, when she had nothing to do, a group of children got together, and when no one gave them toys to teach them to play, she could only figure it out by herself, and she felt that it was fun to cherish everything. There is an older sister who loves to braid people's hair, all kinds of tricks, and a group of children are proficient in both men and women. Is... There's nothing to play.

Hua Yu's eyebrows were crooked, and she looked at Wan Shi from the mirror: "Mother, is it good-looking?" My sister said to weave roses on my head. Mother, what is a rose? ”

Wan tilted his head, and the hair on both sides of Hua Yu was rolled into a few flowers against the scalp: "Mother looks like a rose." ”

Hua Yu hurriedly turned his head sideways, and was straightened by Hua Yun again: "It's so good-looking." ”

Wan Shi looked at the dozen or so delicate braids that had been braided at the back of Hua Yu's head, and then looked at Hua Yun's tone with helplessness: "You said you, you obviously know how to dress up, why don't you pinch yourself - ah——, you dead bear child, you actually cut your hair, you, you, you are angry!" ”

Hua Yun's hair tied up high could have reached her waist, but now it is half a foot less!

A nameless fire crashed into Wan's heart, why is this unlucky child disobedient? It seems that she is too used to her, no, she will have to be stricter in the future, why is she lawless and lawless?

After thinking about this, Wan took a big breath, only to realize that the two girls were looking at her inexplicably.

Hua Yu closed her mouth: "Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" Why did you say that word yourself? Isn't it not for us to say? ”

If you don't let us say it, you can say it yourself? Isn't it unlucky?

Hua Yun is also a little strange, this anger is too big, right?

Wan Shi was startled, secretly annoyed, and didn't dare to look at the two children's eyes, so he asked inwardly, "Why did you cut your hair?" ”

Hua Yun grabbed her hair from the back of her head and leaned over to her to show her: "It's all dry and forked, and it's still yellow, ugly - uh, it's not good, I'll fix it, and I'll grow it in the future." ”

He pointed to Hua Yu's hair and said, "I also repaired Yu'er's." ”

Wan Shi was busy looking, and sure enough, Hua Yu's hair was a little neat, but it shouldn't have been cut much shorter, otherwise why didn't he find it.

frowned and said, "You kid, you can't cut your hair for the rest of your life." Wouldn't it be good for my mother to buy you hair oil to raise, what kind of scissors are biased. ”

Saying that, there is no fire at all, the child is still young, and he has grown back in two years.

"Don't do that again."

"Well, mother, do you want to cut the scissors? I don't think the ends of your hair are good. ”

Wan Shi touched his head, and suddenly said: "When my mother was a girl, my hair was black and shiny, and now... The days are good, and your hair will be the same as before in the future. ”

Is this a reminder of the past? But the old good-tempered suddenly got angry, which shows that there are no good memories.

Hua Yun should come down: "Well, what is the head oil?" ”

Wan Shi cleaned up his mood and said with a smile: "You can't stay at home for a few years, you should have raised it a long time ago, and tomorrow's mother will pick it for you, it smells good with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers." Apply to hair for an instant smooth and shiny finish. ”

"Let's talk about it." What Hua Yun thought in her heart was, if she got a strange smell, she would not be far away from the prey when she entered the mountain?

"Your dad still wants meat, what else do you want? I bought it together, and we won't enter the county seat years ago. ”

Both shook their heads, both feeling that there was nothing to buy.

However, on the twenty-eighth day, Hua Yun regretted it a little.

The so-called "Laba porridge, boil for a few days, mile la twenty-three, twenty-three, sugar melon sticky, twenty-four, sweeping day, twenty-five, push millet millet, twenty-six, go to buy meat, twenty-seven, slaughter roosters, twenty-eight, put the noodles, twenty-nine, steamed steamed buns, stay up for a night on thirty nights, twist and twist on the first day of the New Year." ”

This is what Hua Yu and Hua Bing sang to Hua Yun.

Hua Changnian and Wan Shi prepared for the New Year according to custom, although they did not strictly follow the process of the ballad, but it was almost the same.

Laba porridge, no, just a good meal. It's good, it's just a few more dishes than usual, because they eat good on weekdays. Moreover, there are no fresh vegetables in winter, how can it be good? Isn't it just meat?

Sugar melon? Hua Changnian boiled half a pot of white sugar and made sugar gourds for them, Hua Yun ate well, and the red and bright hawthorn was wrapped in a shiny sugar coating and inserted on a big stick made of wheat straw, and placed in a corner of the room, wanting to eat it and get it yourself.

The wheat stalks still took a long time to go out and ask for someone. His family didn't.

Sweeping? There is no need for adults, Hua Yun and Hua Lei tied the broom head to a long bamboo pole, and as soon as they walked inside and out, they swept it clean, after all, it was a new house.

Grinding glutinous rice sorghum rice? There is a small stone mill at home, Hua Yun sits in front of him, holding his cheeks with one hand and pushing with the other, and the thin noodles flow out. Don't take it too easy.

The meat, already ordered, has been taken back. Chicken? can be slaughtered at any time, and Huayun is responsible for drinking it clean.

In this way, Wan always felt that he was worthless, but fortunately, it was time to prepare all kinds of food.

Wan rolled up his sleeves and vowed to shake his majesty again. First, a large ball of noodles was lived, and it was stuffed in a large clay pot and placed next to the stove. He immediately brought out all kinds of vegetables stored in the cellar. Soak in water, peel what should be peeled. Hua Changnian took back half of the meat, cut it into large pieces, and chopped it into a filling. Green onions, ginger and garlic, chop into filling.

"Yu'er, let's see if the dried beans have been soaked? Leizi, sauerkraut chopped out? Yun'er, the radish is peeled, the potatoes and sweet potatoes are also peeled, all cut into shreds, and my mother will give you croquettes to eat. Daddy, bring some more firewood, break all the bones, and let's make some soup to make soup. Bing'er, continue to peel the garlic. ”

The family was turned around by the Wan family's envoys, and Hua Yun only felt that there were chops in the house, chops and mincions outside the house, and the temples were beating straight one by one, which was too noisy.

She's a little out of control.

Obviously, until yesterday, the house was very quiet, Wan said what to do, and it was done in a moment and a half, why is it suddenly so busy today?

Children who haven't celebrated the New Year are puzzled.

Throwing the small blade to the side: "Mother, why do you do so much?" ”

"Of course you have to do more, what about the New Year, you have to make what you are reluctant to eat on weekdays, so that you can eat enough at one time, and the next time you want to eat, it will be the New Year again."

The corners of Hua Yun's mouth twitched: "Can't we eat it on weekdays?" ”

"That's different, what about the New Year. Niang will tell you, vegetarian balls, Niang makes turnips, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and sesame balls. As for the meat, I will make meatballs, fried meat segments, and fried spring rolls. The fish your dad brought back is also fried. Then fry some small noodle fish, and tofu zygotes, stuffed with meat filling. What do you think? Where have you eaten these on weekdays? ”

It's not good, Hua Yun thought that she still had to listen to the sound of the oil pot squealing for a day, and she was even more impatient.

"It's too much trouble."

"What's the trouble? Wait for the thirtieth day, my mother will start to cook hot dishes, you are all waiting, my mother has used all her skills this year, and she will definitely be able to make dozens of dishes. ”

Dozens?

Is there an end?

Although she is not too troublesome and is willing to contribute, but this movement-

Hua Yun took a deep breath: "Mother, didn't you say that you would go to the cyclamen to eat before?" Let's go to the cyclamen to eat during the Chinese New Year, you don't have to work so hard. ”

It's so convenient, and you don't have to brush the pot and wash the dishes.

Wan Shi raised his head and glared at her: "Jing Hu said, how can anyone run out for the New Year." On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, who did not spend it in their own home? The family has been busy for a year, isn't it just to be able to get together for a reunion dinner on this day? Hey, by the way, I also want to make dumplings. Meat and vegetarian food have to be wrapped. What do you like to eat? ”

Is it really endless?

"Cyclamen have all kinds of stuffing."

"You kid—"

Hua Changnian came in from outside with a large pot, full of broken bones, revealing bright red bone stubble.

Hua Yun's throat slipped, and Wan and Hua Lei were still chopping and chopping, and their temples were jumping even harder.

"What do you think, you kid? Which store is still open in the Chinese New Year's Eve? Even if they open the door, no one goes, they all make dumplings at home. Cyclamen closes for today and won't open until the New Year. The guys in charge of the store are not too old? ”

Hua Yun pressed the sides of his head, but he didn't have a place to go?

Hua Lei listened for a long time, stopped the knife, thoughtfully, and asked, "Eldest sister, are you uncomfortable?" ”

Hua Yun took a sip of water, there was a faint sweetness in it, Wan put the sugar, but she couldn't suppress her restlessness.

"I'm thirsty, I'm going to drink a chicken." (To be continued.) )
