Chapter 091: Chinese New Year's Eve
Shen Fu's Chinese New Year's Eve this year is very depressing.
The family has a small population, Xu can't lift his spirits, and Shen Yunyao is also in a bad mood.
Shen Yunhui was so afraid of Shen Yunyao that she couldn't wait to get as far away as possible.
So many things happened a few years ago, and Shen Zhonglei's mood was not much better.
Shen Tianshu's mind was full of family members in his previous life, and he missed the scene of the Jiang family's family and his grandfather's apprentices every year, and hundreds of people spent the New Year happily.
Among all the people, only Shen Yuanlin is still a child, looking at the delicious food on the table, carrying the gold bills given by adults in his pocket, he is also very happy to entertain himself.
In the end, there was a large table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and only Shen Yuanlin ate with a round belly, and the others all just made a look, and after a few bites, they couldn't even tell what it tasted like.
So after Shen Yuanlin was full and put down the chopsticks, the others almost unanimously put down the chopsticks.
Shen Zhonglei said: "Let's go back to the room to keep the New Year, remember to let the subordinates be careful of the candle flame, don't go out of the water." ”
Shen Tianshu returned to his room from the main room, and as soon as he entered the room, he smelled the sweet smell, and he felt hungry at this time.
"What did Mama do to eat? I'm still hungry! ”
Mama Yang smiled and brought a plate of fried noodles from the back and said, "I know that the girl can't eat anything over there, the old slave has prepared a table of delicious food, and the girl hurriedly went into the house to have a look." ”
Shen Tianshu took off his cloak and entered the house, and before he could see what was delicious on the table, he first saw Mingyu standing at the table and arranging the plate.
"Mingyu, are you back?" Shen Tianshu was overjoyed, but said, "Didn't you say that you should be at home for the New Year, why don't you stay at home with your parents?" ”
"The slaves and maids have been at home for so many days, and if they don't come back, their parents will dislike the slaves and maids." Mingyu smiled and picked up a hemp ball and stuffed it into Shen Tianshu's mouth, "Besides, the slave also misses the girl." The slave maid has never left the girl for so long since she entered the house, and she can't stand it if she doesn't come back. ”
"Does your mother give you honey every day? Why does it make your mouth sweet when you go home? Shen Tianshu smiled and bit Ma Tuan'er.
The hemp ball is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the inside is the osmanthus bean paste filling, fried with lard, which is particularly fragrant, and chews together with the crispy shell and the sesame seeds on the shell, the crispy fragrance of the sesame seeds and the sweetness of the filling, make people want to eat one and eat the next, and they can't stop their mouths at all.
It's just that the hemp ball has just been fried, and the filling inside is still very hot.
Shen Tianshu held the hemp ball in both hands, turned around and ate in small bites, and asked while eating, "Is your father's leg better?" ”
"It's almost good, and the slave and maid are grateful to the girl at home every day."
The two talked in the house for a while, and after a while, Mama Yang, Minghui, Mingxiu, Mi'er, and Rui'er all came in one after another with delicious food, and the kang table in Shen Tianshu's room was full, and the plates were stacked on top of each other.
"Today is not so formal, everyone come up and sit, let's celebrate the New Year together." Shen Tianshu beckoned everyone to go to the couch and sat around the kang table.
After everyone ate and drank enough, Shen Tianshu asked a few maids to touch the flower cards, and crooked to the side to watch the excitement.
Only Mama Yang is old and a little unbearable, so she will go back to find a place to squint for a while, and then get up in the middle of the night.
Someone outside the door suddenly asked, "Is Sister Shen here?" ”
"Why do I sound like Junrong's voice?" Shen Tianshu asked uncertainly.
"Today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, can Miss Zhao come over?"
Several maids were concentrating on playing cards, and no one paid attention to the movement outside.
Mingyu went to the ground, put on a jacket, pulled his shoes and went out to see, and after a while, he brought Zhao Junrong in and said, "The girl's ear is so good, isn't it Miss Zhao." ”
"Why are you here, take off your cloak and coat and come up to warm up." Shen Tianshu saw that Zhao Junrong's little face was blown red by the wind outside, so he hurriedly beckoned people to his side and covered her legs and feet with the blanket he used to put his legs on.
"It's so warm here, sister, I'm finally alive."
"Don't you keep the New Year at home? How did you remember to come over? ”
"My grandmother couldn't stay up late at the beginning of her serious illness, and it was not interesting to stare at me and my parents, and the more I looked, the more sleepy I became. I was going to wander around the garden and take a nap for myself, but I didn't want to see my sister's lights on, so I came over to try my luck.
"It's a pity that I don't have much fun here, I'm bored enough to watch the maids draw cards."
"Let's talk, and time flies."
"Minghui, you go and send a message to Lord Zhao and Mrs. Zhao of the East Cross Courtyard, just say that Junrong is here with me, so they don't have to worry, I will ask someone to send her back when I go back."
I have to say that with Zhao Junrong chattering beside him, it really made people forget the passage of time, and it wasn't until the outhouse clock rang Haizheng's bell that Shen Tianshu realized that it was so late.
Just sent someone to send Zhao Junrong back to Dongkuan Courtyard, Mama Yang also came back and took a few little maids to the small kitchen to cook dumplings.
"It's been a year." Shen Tianshu put on his clothes, pushed open a window, and looked out.
Suddenly, she looked out the window with wide eyes in surprise.
This is, is it snowing?
White and crystal snowflakes slowly fall from the sky, as if to send blessings for the New Year's Eve moment.
By the time everyone finished eating the dumplings, there was already a thin layer of snow outside.
"There's a lot of snow this year!" Mama Yang sent the others to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and she also walked over and stood beside Shen Tianshu.
"It may be that God also knows that there are too many sufferings and grievances in the world, so it will rain a few more snows to cover this evil world and make everything white again."
"It is good, evil is evil, no matter how you cover it up, there will always be spring flowers, the day when the earth rejuvenates, when the time comes, all evil will have nowhere to hide." Mama Yang just said a very reasonable sentence, and then nagged, "Girl, don't stand by the window, the wind outside is cold, you are still standing on the tuyere, beware of blowing something wrong is not a joke." ”
"Haha, I won again." Minghui's cheerful laughter came from behind him.
Mingyu threw away the flower card in his hand and said: "Don't play, don't play, it's really an evil door today, how can you win everything?" I've lost all my money, so you can find someone else to play with! ”
"Sister Mingyu, don't go, I'll give you money, can you continue to play with me for a while?"
The noise and laughter in the room quickly pulled Shen Tianshu back from his own thinking to the real world.
She put aside the chaotic thoughts in her head, walked behind Mingyu and said, "It's okay, keep playing, I'll show you the cards, and win back what she won." ”
