Chapter 67: Making Dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve
After two or three days of busy work, Su Yan prepared almost everything that should be prepared.
In the blink of an eye, on Chinese New Year's Eve, after going out for several days, I also ran back, and everyone gathered in a room to rest for a night.
When I got up in the morning, I heard the sound of firecrackers in the courtyard, which rang out from time to time.
It's the New Year, and today is the most festive day of the year.
Su Yan shouted at the big guys and asked if anyone wanted to go and shoot the cannon?
"What firecrackers? Interesting, isn't it? "Roll with a bag of yogurt, what does it mean?
Hehe, if you don't want to, forget it, Su Yan pulled Liu Chenghuan and the two went out happily.
When I came to the yard, I saw a few little children throwing cannonballs, and the turtle said, "These boys have great potential, they are more bear children than I was back then?" ”
"It's been like this all these years, and every generation is more and more bearish!" Su Yan didn't talk nonsense, got two firecrackers, and asked Liu Chenghuan how he wanted to put them?
"How else can I put it, of course hang it up and put it in a full house!" Liu Chenghuan made it bad, threw the firecracker in the air with mana, and a sword light swept through the air, directly igniting the fire twist, and the crackling sound was endless for a while.
The children in the courtyard looked stupid, they had never seen such a cannon fired, they actually threw it in the air and blew up flowers.
I hid far away for a while, and I saw that the snot bubbles came out, and then a leader came out and asked: "Brother Moo, how did you put it, it's so powerful?" ”
Su Yan smiled and said nothing, only said: "You can't learn this trick, let's talk about it when you grow up." ”
turned around and told the turtle not to go too far, and took a group of children with him, set off a lot of fireworks, and made trouble with the child king for a long time before going back.
After such a toss, I didn't even eat breakfast, both of them smelled of gunpowder, and when I returned to the door, I heard Su's mother complaining: "How old are you, and you are still going to fire guns with your children, no wonder you can't find your daughter-in-law?" ”
"Mom, can you not mention this?" Su Yanxin said that you are really my mother, why are you so old?
Seeing my dad take out the newly bought couplet, he hurried over to help: "It's time to post the couplet?" Come on, I'll post it for you. Let me see ...... first."
took a closer look at the couplet, and said that this word is written vigorously and powerfully, with both form and spirit, quite a bit of everyone's demeanor, of course, Su Yan actually can't understand it.
He saw that it was written: Spring is full of flowers in the world, and the small courtyard of Fulin is always peaceful all year round. Horizontal batch - celebrate the Spring Festival.
Su's father sighed and said that this couplet was written by your grandfather, and when it comes to his old man, he has some calligraphy attainments.
Anyway, Balabala's are the same set that I have heard before, Su Yan hurriedly went to make the paste and pasted the couplets first.
On both sides of the gate, the couplets were pasted one by one, and the parents were satisfied with the paste.
Miao'er and the others all peeked out of the room, looked at what they were doing, and discussed: "What is this, rune paper?" ”
"It's hard to say, it's the first time I've seen a red rune paper, so I'll go to another house tonight and try to open a few." Master Xuanqing rarely showed his head and came out with a sentence.
Su Yan heard it in the chair and almost fell down, saying in his heart that you haven't heard of this thing? On the other side of the emotional world, the material culture is too poor.
After getting the couplet, I went down to cook, and while it was still early, Su's father and Su's mother began to plate dumpling fillings, ready to make dumplings to eat at night.
This is also an old Chinese tradition, every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, dumplings are made, and then the family is happy watching the Spring Festival Gala.
Su Yan still remembers that in previous years, he would put some coins in the dumplings to see who was lucky enough to eat them, which indicated that he might have good luck in the next year.
When I immediately helped chop the meat, I didn't forget to talk about it: "Do you still put coins in the dumplings tonight?" I remember that in the past, my father always ate it, and today I said I wanted to grab one? ”
"Do you remember?" Dad Su quipped, "Your dad grabbed it, and in the end he didn't give it to you secretly, so as not to make your kid cry?" ”
"Who said that I am so spineless?" Su Yan immediately shouted injustice, saying that there was no such thing, but his father wiped his nose with flour and said that he was not shy.
The few powerful people who watched them make dumplings incognito next to them were all amused.
Haha, this is Su Yan's black history!
Rolling immediately took a photo with his mobile phone, and immediately clicked, and the flash flashed his eyes.
Su Yan was instantly shocked, aren't you causing trouble?
Now it's exposed, how can I lie?
was racking his brains to think of an excuse to cover it up, but Su's father's smile only stopped for half a second, and continued to say as if it was fine: "Okay, I'll let you pack it yourself today, it's okay now, right?" ”
"Wow, you're going to be lazy, it looks like I'm really going to have to get a girlfriend?" Seeing that his parents were actually relieved to be the shopkeeper, he had to make his own dumpling filling, and then prepare to roll out the dumpling skin with the dough.
Fortunately, Master Miao'er was kind-hearted and came to help him, and the two closed the door and used spells, and I don't know how to get rid of this trouble, anyway, when I was done, it was almost five o'clock.
The family sat in the living room, watching TV programs, chatting about the whole meal, and preparing to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Basically, every year, on Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone sits around a table to eat dumplings, and by the way, the fried crispy meatballs and lotus are steamed in a pot, and the Spring Festival is lively.
It's just that today's main force has become Su Yan, who took over the banner from his parents, busy with housework, and by the way, he has to take care of the powerful people who are eyeing him.
Although the previous accident didn't make Su's father and Su's mother find out, that guy didn't be honest for long, and he was clamoring to eat small crispy meat.
"Enough, you're not done!" Su Yan took the time to bring him a big bowl of food, coaxed him into his room, and let the spider not be allowed to come out.
The remaining turtle and Miao'er were lying quietly on the sofa, watching the New Year's greeting program on TV, and occasionally stealing melon seeds or something.
Busy and busy, when it was finally time to sit down, Su Yan was shouted by his father to stop working, and still served another hot dish.
This is a delicacy made from vegetables he cultivated himself, which has the wonderful effect of purifying with spiritual light beads, and also has the addition of purple knot grass spices, just smelling attractive enough.
The father, who has always been picky, said a good word, admiring his son's craftsmanship, which is getting better and better.
My mother also smiled and nodded, not forgetting to add that it would be nice to marry another daughter-in-law.
Su Yanxin said that you are singing a harmony and turning into the wind, can you not keep mentioning this matter?
Quickly changed the topic and said that the Spring Festival Gala has begun, let's take a look.
"Well, another year's Spring Festival Gala has begun." Su Ma turned her head to watch it with great interest, her old man loves to watch variety shows the most.
Su's father was more interested, saying that a year is not as good as a year, but if he doesn't look at it, he always feels that there is something missing.
Su Yan took the opportunity to clip a few dumplings, looked at the turtles with their necks stretched out, and threw them over one after another.
The turtle opened its mouth and bit it, chewed it deliciously, and said that your stuffing is very fragrant.
Su Moxin said of course it is fragrant, today is not an ordinary meat filling, but a mixture of mutton Tai Sui's best dumplings, no matter how you say it, you have to make the second elder eat comfortably.
He ate a few bites of his own, savored the aroma of dumplings, and by the way watched the program on TV.
In fact, Su Yan rarely watches it, he has never been very interested in variety shows, not to mention that today's Spring Festival Gala is really not as good as a year.
Cross talk has declined many years ago, Uncle Benshan has also retired, and the newcomer Shen Teng is quite interesting, so I just watched Charlotte they filmed, and I have some ideas.
However, the topic of the Spring Festival Gala every year is also the hottest, and this year it is not to make a mascot Kang Kang, and then what monkey Sailei is boiling all over the country.
Speaking of the monkey, it should be pulled to the monkey king, Su Yan suddenly heard his father sigh: "In the previous Year of the Monkey, I invited six young children, but unfortunately I can't see it this year." Otherwise, the Journey to the West crew will only be able to relive the old show when they are on CCTV again? ”
"Hehe, Dad, have you heard about this too?" Su Yan smiled and quipped, "But I think it's okay if people don't go up, at least leave a good impression, so as not to disappoint some people after reading it, what a pity." ”
"What do you mean, you kid singing against the stage?" Su's father asked him rhetorically, and the two of them habitually quarreled again.
Su Yan joked: "What do you sing, I don't watch the Spring Festival Gala much, it's the same for everyone." Besides, if people don't go to the Spring Festival Gala, they can also watch other parties, and now the local station's party is also very lively. In fact, everyone is just celebrating the festival to have an atmosphere, and now there are more ways to go, many young people are going online to travel or something, or you can watch the Spring Festival Gala of Ning Provincial Satellite TV, they invited the Monkey King to ......"
He also followed the wind, but happened to receive several WeChat messages, all of which were New Year's greetings.
In the past, it was popular to send text messages, but now it has been changed to WeChat to send red envelopes, Su Yan lowered his head and was busy grabbing red envelopes, and by the way, he greeted the New Year.
Su's father couldn't help him, and said that you don't want to go back to the house, don't delay dozing here.
Su Yan was amnesty, and hurriedly buckled her mobile phone back to her room, Miao'er and the turtle also ran in, leaving Su's father and mother to continue watching the Spring Festival Gala.
It's just that without his son by his side, Su's father ate the dumplings in his mouth and sighed: "Tai Sui's thing is really delicious, boy, you are so blessed." ”
Su's mother patted him, glanced at the closed door, and complained: "Be quiet, don't let him see it." Since the son doesn't want to pierce the window paper, it's better to pretend to be confused. ”
"Yes, it's rare to be able to be so safe and stable for decades." Su's father lit a cigarette for himself, and smoked it leisurely but fell into deep thought.
With his sigh, the dishes and chopsticks on the table have been cleaned up and automatically returned to the kitchen.
