It was dark in Guanzhong very early, and the red lanterns of Cheng's mansion were hung high.

Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, there are fewer people in the mansion than usual, and some rush home to reunite with their families after they are busy, only the generals who sold themselves to Cheng Mansion are still in Cheng Mansion and keep the New Year with the people of Cheng Mansion.

The meal was served, and the cook spoke. Everyone cheered.

The hall is where the master eats, because the three brothers of Cheng Huailiang have not yet married, and there are very few people in all the main family, and the three brothers plus Cheng Yanjin and Cui's family.

The servants and maids and the generals ate in the side hall. There is no one waiting for you today.

The cook loudly showed off his cooking skills, and the food of the people has not changed, except for the generals, who will eat and drink everything in the main family. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, so it is a big exception, the chef has made all the dishes learned from Cheng Huailiang today, so that the maids and servants are greatly satisfied, and they know how happy they are today when they hear the cheers coming from the side hall.

In addition to the dishes that the chef showed off his skills in the main hall, Cheng Huailiang served the freshly cooked dumplings, Cheng Yanjin and Cui Shi looked at the steaming dumplings, I don't know what they were, they looked at Cheng Huailiang suspiciously, Cheng Huailiang briefly introduced: "Dad, mother, you have worked hard, this is something I just came up with, I respect you." "There are leek fillings, there are cabbage fillings, you can eat like that if you like it." Cheng Huailiang put the dumplings made by Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chubi in front of them separately, and they couldn't see the skin, only the meat the size of a fist, and they didn't know if they were cooked.

"Oh, really?" Cheng Yanjin wondered. Then he picked up a dumpling and put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly, the more he chewed, the brighter his eyes became, "Madam, you taste it, it's really good, I have a heart." Cheng Yanjin praised it rarely.

"This is the success of our three brothers' labor," Cheng Huailiang did not dare to be greedy.

Well, although this son is not too worry-free, but his filial piety is commendable, Cheng Yanjin and Cui's looked at each other and thought of it.

Cheng Huailiang was happy to see Cheng biting gold eating, how could there be no wine today, Cheng Huailiang went to bring two jars of distilled wine this afternoon. put a bowl in front of everyone, Cheng Huailiang filled everyone with wine in front of them, and toasted to Cheng Yanjin and Cui's with a wine bowl: "Dad, mother, happy bride, I wish you two good health and good luck in the coming year." Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chubi also picked up the wine bowl one after another to toast their father.

"!" Cheng Biting Jin didn't say a word, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, Cheng Huailiang saw Cheng Biting Jin smacked it for a while, but his face was not red, uncle, I'm afraid there are several taels of this bowl, it's really a wine barrel.

Cheng Chumo Cheng Chubi also learned the heroism of Cheng Biting Gold, but found that they directly squirted out the wine, their faces were flushed, and they fanned their tongues vigorously with their hands, and they had never drunk such strong wine and were not used to it at all.

Cheng Huailiang picked up the wine bowl and took a sip and put the wine bowl down, we are civilized people, we can't learn from those rough people, 50 degrees of wine, how many people can take a bowl in one bite.

Seeing that the situation was unknown, Cui Shi, the heroine of the female middle school, also picked up the wine bowl and took a shallow sip of tea, and immediately felt that it was so spicy and choking, this wine was too strong and not suitable for women to drink.

Cheng Yanjin picked up the wine jar and brought himself another bowl, went down in one bite, went halfway there, wiped his mouth and said: "Damn, this is good wine, a good man should drink such wine, strong enough." As he spoke, he stroked the wine jar like a lover.

"How did you come up with this? After drinking this wine, I didn't feel it anymore, and I was as weak as a girl. Cheng Yanjin said.

"Well, this, Dad, although today is a special day, but this wine is very strong, and the stamina is great, drink less, don't get drunk."

"Haha, it's okay, it's rare to be happy, I'm going to get drunk today." Cheng Yanjin laughed.

Cheng Chubi was afraid of this wine, so he concentrated on dealing with the dishes on the table, and besides, he was relatively small, and it was not very suitable to drink this wine.

Cheng Chumo was defenseless, so embarrassed, but he felt that what his father said was right, a good man should drink this wine, and slowly took a small sip, not so uncomfortable, and after a while, he felt a smell of wine coming from his stomach, which made people have an endless aftertaste. Maybe the Cheng family is like that, and after a while, Cheng Chumo fell in love with this wine.

started drinking at night, Cheng Huailiang drank a bowl and found that his head began to dizzy, but he found that Cheng Yanjin was holding the wine jar and drinking non-stop, and found that there was no opponent in the main hall, Cheng Chumo was drunk directly on the table, Cheng Yanjin went to the side hall, and drank again with the generals of the Cheng family, and the family members also drank such a good wine for the first time, and shouted for another bowl, another bowl.

This group of drunkards drank all the five jars of high-grade wine brewed by Cheng Huailiang, it was really a wine barrel, and Cheng Huailiang worshipped them with gold stars in his eyes.

After drinking, a group of people started mahjong, in previous years, they all said around the brazier, chatting together, quietly keeping the year, this year is different, mahjong came out, it swept the whole Chang'an, and now ordinary people basically have mahjong, this popularity is really fast, of course, Cheng Huailiang also made a small fortune in it, but there are also pirated mahjong on the market. It's not as fine as Cheng's, but it's just right for ordinary people, and Cheng Huailiang is not angry when the business is robbed, after all, mahjong is very simple, easy to copy, as long as you grab the biggest cake, it's OK.

Cheng Mansion is more lively this year than in previous years, especially Cheng Biting Jin and the generals who have drunk wine, playing mahjong, that scene, tsk, ordinary people really dare not go to their side, pay attention to the danger of life at any time.

Cheerful times are always easy to pass. The bell rang at 12 o'clock at midnight, the new year is here, what is waiting for Cheng Huailiang in the new year?
