Chapter 289: Warm Chinese New Year's Eve

In the past few days, the New Year's goods have been prepared, and according to local practices, Qin Yi's family has also included some preparations for the New Year: steaming jujube mountains and jujube flowers, stewed meat, boiling broth, fried noodles, fried meatballs, fish nuggets, chicken nuggets, and tofu nuggets

A lot of busy work made Susa and Kolo, who had a big New Year for the first time, very eye-opening.

In particular, the jujube buns with a variety of patterns, under the hands of Qin's mother and Qin's father, are rolled out with a knife and a cane, shaped into the image of flowers or butterflies, with red jujubes, warm and festive!

provoked the two daughters to be amazed, made Qin Yi's parents laugh, the family was harmonious, endless joy, endless happiness!

The tradition of Qin Yi's hometown, Zao Mountain worships the gods, and the jujube flower is the daughter who is married.

Therefore, these two items are essential for the Chinese New Year.

Even though machine-made steamed buns are popular now, most families still adhere to the tradition and still choose to make these foods with emotional sustenance.

If Zaoshan jujube flowers are emotional sustenance, then stewed meat, fried pasta and the like are completely a celebration of a busy year and harvest.

These big fish and meat, marinated and stewed, are very delicious, and they are naturally very popular with Angel.

Especially the ingredients brought back from the ranch are already delicious, and Qin's mother and her family have decades of cooking experience, and the heat and materials have long been perfected, which is even higher than Qin Yilai.

Therefore, the soup is thick and moist, and the meat is crispy and fragrant, so that the little girl sits on the sofa and doesn't want to move!

Seeing the little granddaughter lying on the sofa, humming and chirping, the old couple was so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

In fact, in the first two days after returning home, Qin's mother cooked the meal. It's still not quite to the taste of Susa and Kolo.

After all, it was the first time for the two sides to meet, and Qin's mother didn't know everyone's taste habits, and it was always inevitable to put too much salt and less material.

However, the two girls helped Qin's mother to help, and after making a few meals, Qin's mother took the heat. The meals are loved by everyone.

Kolo also took the opportunity to learn to cook with Qin's mother, not to mention, a few days of hard work really allowed her to learn a few dishes, although the appearance is not good, but the taste is still good.

Qin Yi's parents were even more happy, and their daughters-in-law were well-behaved and sensible, and they also helped cook all day long. These days, there is no happiness anymore!

They know that the daughter-in-law of someone else's family in the village, let alone let her cook, if you cook it for her, she won't bring you a good face!

It can't be compared with his own daughter-in-law at all!

She was satisfied with her two daughters-in-law and little granddaughter. I change my pattern every day and make local delicious.

Some of the dishes that the two girls liked. She especially remembered that from time to time, she specially made a two-course one, so that the two girls shouted that they were going to eat fat!

Happy days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, time has come to the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month.

There is no 30th month of the lunar month this year. Therefore, twenty-nine is Chinese New Year's Eve.

Early in the morning, some families with good conditions lit firecrackers and crackled. Let the air fill the air with the smell of gunsmoke.

And the warm atmosphere of the New Year has become more and more intense.

The habit developed in the ranch, Qin Yi and the others woke up very early, and it was the same today, everyone was already sleepy at about 6 o'clock.

But now the family is really fine, and it is really comfortable in the bed on a cold day, so Qin is rarely lazy, hugging Susa and Kolo, nesting on the bed and whispering.

Naturally, it is inevitable to make a move.

When I went to bed last night, this guy pulled the two girls into his room, and he didn't do anything embarrassing for a few days, and the three of them were a little thoughtful, and they were busy until late.

But the physical and mental pleasure, coupled with a few hours of deep sleep, is still refreshed and radiant early in the morning!

The three of them hid in bed, talked about love, chatted about gossip, and were leisurely, and did not get up until seven o'clock.

Today is the last market of the year, and after breakfast, Qin Yi's parents plan to go to the market to see if there is anything missing, and then buy some more.

Qin Yi wanted to drive them there, but his parents didn't let them, and they were with five or six neighbors, and everyone chatted while walking, which also had some fun.

Moreover, the market is in the next village, a mile or two away, so Qin Yi does not insist.

It is also good to take more walks and be healthy.

The sun rose in the morning, Qin Yi took the women and children, sat in the yard to bask in the sun, warm and lazy, and came to the middle of the afternoon, it was time to post the door painting!

Susa and Kolo cut, Qin Yi hugged Angel and asked the little girl to paste it by herself.

This task made the little girl very happy, because she felt that she had also participated in the work of adults and felt a sense of accomplishment.

The family is full of interest, more than a dozen rooms upstairs and downstairs, as well as on the car, on the small trees in the yard, on the side walls outside the house, door paintings, couplets, blessing characters, etc., are full, and the festive charm of the New Year is more sufficient!

The old couple who went to the market to check for the gaps also came back, and when they saw Angel's excellent work, they naturally couldn't help but praise it, which made the little girl smile.

At noon on Chinese New Year's Eve, naturally every household set off firecrackers, and Qin Yi's family was indispensable for a long list of red grounds, crackling, making the little girl cover her ears and cheer.

After setting off the firecrackers, it is naturally time to eat.

The meals are not fancy, stir-fry a few meat and vegetarian dishes, and then have a water chestnut white fungus soup, and the family sits around the table to eat refreshingly.

Especially the water chestnut white fungus soup, the little girl has never eaten water chestnuts in the United States, and the sweet and crisp taste immediately attracted her, and she drank two large bowls!

This water chestnut was bought by Qin's mother in the morning, and when she saw that the little girl liked it, she said that she bought it right!

Later, she went to make boiled water chestnuts and found a peeler to peel for Angel!

This made the little girl happy, one by one peeled water chestnuts, white and round, crisp and refreshing, eating click!

However, Susa didn't want Qin's mother to get used to the little girl, so she let the little girl do it herself.

So, Angel pouted her little buttocks, cut one by herself and ate one by herself, happy and comfortable.

Fortunately, Qin's mother specially soaked the water chestnuts in warm water, otherwise it would be cold!

The afternoon is naturally the time to make dumplings, this Susa is more adept, and Kolo is okay.

So, Qin's father ran out to play cards, Qin Yi took over the work of rolling dough, and Qin's mother took Susa and Kolo to chat and make dumplings at the same time.

Angel was not idle, and happily performed singing, dancing and other programs for everyone, which made the adults smile all over their faces for a while.

Looking at the happy family, Qin's mother sighed secretly: This year is really good luck, and people and wealth are prosperous!

I've never been so comfortable this year!

Dumplings are not all one filling, of course.

Qin's mother and Qin's father naturally like pork and radish filling, Qin Yi likes leek eggs the most, and Sousa and Kolo are the same flavor - spinach eggs!

Adding a sweet potato vermicelli tofu filling specially prepared by Qin's mother, there were several fillings at once, which made Angel smile and bend her eyebrows, after all, eating so many dumplings of different flavors at the same time, what a happiness for her, a snack merchant!

In the process, Qin's mother also found a few coins, washed them, wrapped dumplings with the filling, and explained to her daughters-in-law: "Whoever eats it will make a fortune next year!" ”

As soon as these words came out, not only them, but even Angel looked expectant.

It's not about making a fortune, it's just fun!

The dumplings were naturally saved for tomorrow, but the dinner in the evening did not disappoint Angel at all - chicken, duck and fish, meat and vegetarian dishes, pastries and fruits, sweet soup and salty soup, etc., were placed on the big table, and it was very hearty!

Qin's mother took her daughter-in-law and little granddaughter to drink juice, and Qin Yi accompanied Qin's father to drink two cups, and a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner made the family eat warm and warm. (To be continued......)
