Chapter 601: It's New Year

The reunion dinner is the real highlight; Huang Yue got up very early in the morning, although the breakfast was not particularly rich, but it was also very quality. In fact, breakfast is not important, the meal at noon is the most important; Although Chinese New Year's Eve and Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, many places have reunion dinners at noon, and the family sits together happily, which is the most important thing.

Wei Guanghui's task today is to continue to play games with the children, and the children are now his little followers, so of course there is no need to worry about the children making trouble. Weida and Angela naturally went to the kitchen to help, and the Chinese New Year's Eve meal needs to be very particular; As for the waves not wasting anything, no one cares, the atmosphere is the most important thing, so of course it is also very busy.

"Ten dishes, perfect. We still keep a few good dishes with colorful heads, and the rest is to consider the children's appetite. There must be fish and balls, and the rest is what you want to eat. Huang Yue was very happy, although she was busy and her feet did not touch the ground, she felt very fulfilled.

Fish, naturally, are more than every year; Yuanzi, this is a family reunion.

In fact, there are generally more than these two kinds of colorful dishes, but only the two most distinctive dishes need to be retained; As for the other dishes, of course, you need to take into account the tastes of the family. Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, this is not only to please a good prize, but more importantly, the family eats happily together, which is actually the most important thing.

Now is the beginning of the big meal, which is also the highlight of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner; So at this time, Wei Da's mother can't just be busy alone, this is something that needs to be done by the whole family. It's good right now. Constantly completing some dishes, it is basically done thoroughly.

And things like sticking Spring Festival couplets, in fact, Wei Da really underestimated those little naughty ghosts at home; I can still do things like helping my grandfather hand the paste. Or will the couplets be straightened or something. The children are very capable, which also makes Wei Da happy, the little ones are getting better and better now, they are all good children!

So when the meal is ready, it's time to start preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve meal; Of course, a simple ancestor worship is still required before the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Wei Da and his father were going to be a little busy, and Angela and the children were also respectfully kowtowing to the ancestors. I hope the ancestors will bless you; The most important thing is to bless the family with good health and all the best, and to bless the family to live a happy and happy life all the time.

"I think so. The children still can't help it, we take care of one child by ourselves, Wei Da just eats by himself, and he can't eat enough. "Watch the children bounce around the dinner table. Wei Guanghui said; The kids are still a little too young now. It's really not very convenient to pick up vegetables by yourself now, and you still need someone to take care of it.

Wei Da was speechless, but his opinion at this time was no longer important, so he could only accept this seemingly unequal treaty. Well, it's okay to eat and drink alone, anyway, it's still a family sitting together, so you don't need to be so particular and careless.

Wei Guanghui and Wei Da opened a bottle of white wine, while Huang Yue and Angela asked for a little red wine; As for the kids, it's actually better to settle. One bottle of milk per person, that's completely enough. So the family began to toast. The new year is coming soon, and it will be a very beautiful thing and something to look forward to.

Last year, although the children had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, the impression was very faint or even nothing; After all, children are still relatively young, and it is difficult for them to remember. However, children love to make trouble, and it means that some people are crazy. So now I am also learning very quickly, and my little mouth is very sweet and says nice things, and I am constantly asking for a toast.

As for Angela and Weida, of course, they will respect their father and mother, and they will also toast each other; The family was happy, and this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was also very happy. Although firecrackers continue to sound outside, more and more people are enjoying their Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at this time, which is also a good thing.

"Ryan, remember? Hurry up and kowtow to your grandparents with your brother and sister, so you will have a lot of red envelopes. Angela laughed, she now knew the custom of pressing the New Year's money; So when the family talked and laughed and spent more than two hours eating a good Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Angela also reminded the children.

Xiao Li doesn't remember it very well, but there are fathers and mothers who can remind him; So Xiao Chubby Dun took his younger brother and sister to kowtow to the smiling grandfather and grandmother honestly, and then he was very surprised to see the grandparents take out a big red envelope and distribute it to them, this is pocket money, the children know!

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, my mother also took care of things at home; Then it's free time, and Weida and Angela take the kids to the house. As for the parents who finally came back, not to mention other times, at this time they must go to play mahjong a little for recreation, and they can't just keep going around the children.

Angela, like the children, is able to understand some Chinese, but she is stumbling when she speaks; But it doesn't matter, although sometimes a little anxious English will immediately pop up, but with Wei Da on the side of the translation, this is enough. The children are still young, and you can't expect children who don't speak English well to be proficient in Chinese immediately, and this must be learned slowly.

The little ones are very popular, and the little ones themselves are very cute; So the little ones are also getting a lot of candy and the like, and this is not yet the official New Year's Day, but the children's pockets are already full of candy. The children are really happy, they don't necessarily be able to eat all the candy, they actually enjoy the fun of getting candy more, which is why the children are so happy now.

Send a text message to your relatives and friends, make a phone call to greet the New Year, and it doesn't matter if you play mahjong or anything like that; After coaxing the children to sleep, Wei Da also took Angela to watch the game a little. I want her to explain some of the fun and rules of mahjong. Angela doesn't understand this, and she seems to have a hard time enjoying mahjong.

When I came home at 11 o'clock, I wasn't worried that the children would wake up to find their parents. The little ones actually have a high quality of sleep, and they are all the types who sleep until dawn all night. Wei Da and they don't really like to stay up late, and because of customs, after twelve o'clock, they will set off firecrackers. Although the sound insulation at home is better, when every household starts to come out to set off firecrackers, this movement is indeed not small, which still needs to be paid attention to. lest the children be awakened or something.

The children slept very soundly, although the sound of firecrackers was very loud, but for the time being, it still did not affect the little ones who are snooze now. The quality of sleep itself is good. In addition, the little ones are actually very tired from playing during the day, and now they naturally sleep more soundly. Wei Da also laughed, these little guys are really cute, people feel that they really like them too much.

"The current Spring Festival flavor is actually not as strong as when I was a child. Maybe it's because everyone's living conditions are better now. Therefore, it is no longer during the Spring Festival that you can completely rest and eat more delicious food. But that's fine, everyone's life is good. When he returned to the room and saw that Angela hadn't slept yet, Wei Da said with some emotion.

"Shouldn't I say Happy New Year now? I know this is a real new year for you, congratulations. Angela said with a smile, although she doesn't know much about Chinese culture, but she does know some things now, such as the meaning of the Spring Festival.

The two of them were ready to go to bed after a while. Although it is true that it is now another year older; But Wei Da feels that his mentality is actually quite young, so he still needs to continue to enjoy life. He feels that his life is actually so good now.

In the morning, there was another sound of firecrackers, and the start was good, of course, it needed to be lively; Wei Da also woke up, and then hurried to go to the children's room, it is estimated that the little ones who don't like to sleep lazy actually like to go to bed early and get up early, they must have entered the best state now, and then they began to prepare to play games in the new day.

"Xiaoxin got up so early, did you miss your father?" When he arrived at the children's room, seeing that Xiao Xin had already opened his eyes and was rolling around on the bed dishonestly, Wei Da just laughed, "Don't make trouble, my brother hasn't woken up yet." ”

"My brother woke up, he and his sister learned to dress just now, but they don't know." Xiaoxin saw his father and immediately came to his senses, and the little guy in the little pajamas sat up and began to complain, "I don't know how to wear clothes, so I didn't move, I will wait for my father and mother to help me." ”

Wei Da was happy, because of the little son's well-behaved, and because of the curiosity of the two little guys, Xiaoli and Xiaoyou, the children's choices were not wrong. These are all things that Weida should be happy about, and we will also encourage the children to continue to develop and become self-reliant. Especially Xiaoli, who is now about to be four years old, can start learning to dress on his own.

"Kids, hurry up and get ready. We'll finish breakfast and go to the New Year, and you'll be able to harvest more sweets. Wei Da smiled and opened the quilt, sure enough, Xiao Li and Xiao You were hiding in the quilt and pretending to be asleep, and the little ones have now learned to make a little prank.

The kids immediately came to the spirit and wanted to go out and play games, and that's what they liked the most; Now, hurry up and ask Dad to help you get dressed so that you can get a lot of candy together, which will be one of the most fun games. The little ones are now in good spirits and are going out to play games, of course, the mood is immediately better.

Wei Da also admires his parents very much, and his mother has almost prepared breakfast; In fact, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to the customs of my hometown, the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year is basically to eat dumplings, and the old hen soup with dumplings is of course quite delicious. As for dumplings, this is also one of the children's favorite food, they are very satisfied with today's breakfast, and they are constantly asking about today's itinerary, such as going out to play games and so on.

"Later, Dad will take you to the New Year's greetings and walk around the village. Now you have to learn a few words with your father, Wishing you prosperity, good health, and all the best. This way you can get more candy, which is the secret to getting candy. Wei Da reminded the children that the little guys' spoken language is indeed a little strange now, but children, it is normal for Chinese to be non-standard, and it is good to be able to speak and understand.

The little ones are now starting to sharpen their guns, and they are trying to learn more good words about New Year's greetings that can get candy; The little ones are also very serious and hard-working now, so it's not that the little ones don't like to study, but more often they need better motivation. Now it's some candy, but the children are already feeling the importance of learning Chinese well.

Angela also watched with a smile, and also felt that she could also learn a little from the teacher; She is about the same level of Chinese as the children, or even inferior to the children. After all, children are very malleable, when Wei Da's parents were in the United States, they often spoke some English and Chinese, and the children still knew a lot of Chinese, but they couldn't speak it well.

Wei Da began to greet the New Year with the gifts that had been prepared a long time ago, and on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he basically didn't run too far, and he was all walking around the village. As for the second day of the Lunar New Year, it is also a custom to go to my uncle's house. So for now, it's better to go around the village first, and that's the most important thing.

Now the kids are happily collecting their candy, with strange accents that aren't necessarily accurate. But I have to admit that the little ones are very cute, plus they are the big New Year, and the children are actually the main force, so the candy thing is naturally quite easy to say, and the children are now completely profitable.

Although it seems to be just some ordinary little things, it is also a very good memory for children; Now the little ones are full of loads, not only small pockets full of candy and the like, but even each little one is carrying a small plastic bag, which is the result of their New Year's greetings.

When I returned home, I naturally counted the types of candy and divided it; The little ones are still very careful, this is their snack, of course they will care about it, especially if it is the result of such a rather interesting New Year's greeting, then I like it even more!
