Chapter 67: The Year

Everyone didn't get up very early this morning, and the only exception was Jiao Zuoren.

Because today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, well, a very important day for the Chinese.

Except for Jiao Zuoren, there is no one in this group who can cook, so it can't be said that he can't. Brother Qiao doesn't need money to cook salt, Bai Lian cooks half-baked, Qin Longzu... Forget it, there is no money to renovate the house.

Therefore, Jiaozuo people had to get up early in the morning and began to prepare for the recently hoarded vegetables to welcome the Chinese New Year's Eve in the evening.

Everyone got up when it was close to noon, and when they went downstairs and saw Jiao Zuoren's busy figure, they were all a little embarrassed, and they all rolled up their sleeves and prepared to help do something.

Although everyone was very enthusiastic, Jiao Zuoren didn't want to have to build a kitchen again for the New Year, so he sent Bai Lian and Qin Longzu out to buy firecrackers.

Brother Qiao didn't know why, he was very silent, and to Jiao Zuoren's surprise, he didn't watch TV on the sofa with a cigarette in his mouth. Instead, he took the initiative to walk over and tell Jiao Zuoren that he wanted to fill in a dish, and said with a smile that he really couldn't understand anything but this dish.

Although Jiao Zuoren couldn't understand Brother Qiao's abnormal situation today, he didn't bother to think about it because he was busy cooking.

……

At noon, everyone just took a hasty bite and gathered in front of the TV again. Qin Longzu Ah Ming Qiao Ge played poker in a circle, and Jiao Zuo and Bai Lian, who were finally idle, squatted in front of the TV and scuffled again, because Jiao Zuoren wanted to watch a food program and transferred away the children's channel that Bai Lian was watching lively.

Probably also the atmosphere of the New Year, Brother Qiao looked at these two sworn enemies who were fighting and did not take the initiative to sacrifice the education he loved, but just smiled and shook his head.

It was already dark, and all kinds of fireworks on the street were lit by people, red, yellow, blue, green, and colorful fireworks brought a touch of agility to the gray night on weekdays.

Listening to the crackling firecrackers outside, Bai Lian couldn't bear to sit at home and fight with Jiao Zuoren for TV, so he rushed out with a few large bags of gift flowers that he had bought with Qin Longzu.

"Eh, you take it easy, you have to leave some before we eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner" Jiao Zuoren looked at this kid's movements, seemed to understand what he was going to do, and quickly chased after him.

As soon as the two opened the door, they saw a gorgeous woman with red hair standing at the door, just about to knock.

"Yo, isn't this Jiaozuo, what's wrong, this is here to pick me up?" The charming woman with red hair appeared in front of the two of them.

Needless to say, it is the Tang Tang who watches Jiao Zuoren as a live broadcast all day long, and Jiao Zuoren really has nothing to say about this woman. Finally, after returning home and knowing that this group of people would rather block contact than be watched by Tangtang, he hurriedly went to ask Brother Qiao for help and blocked it for a while.

Since then, Jiao Zuoren can be regarded as living a normal life without being monitored, well, although life is still not normal.

Tang Tang completely ignored Jiao Zuoren's sad expression, and shook off his long burgundy hair, "Boy, hurry up and take me in"

As a last resort, Jiao Zuoren glanced at Bai Lian, who took the opportunity to sneak out to set off firecrackers, ignored him, and walked to the living room with Tangtang.

Tang Tang's appearance didn't seem to surprise others at all, Brother Qiao and Qin Longzu just glanced at her and nodded, and then stared at the cards in their hands.

Suddenly, Jiao Zuoren remembered a question, and before he could continue to think about it, the problem really appeared, so he immediately stood beside Qin Longzu and secretly looked at Brother Qiao.

"Ah, isn't this Lin Yao? Is this cured? Coming back? Tang Tang looked at Lin Yao who was sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed, and couldn't tell whether she cared about Lin Yao at all

Originally, Lin Yao didn't plan to wait for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner here, if it weren't for Brother Qiao and everyone persuading her, it is estimated that she would stay upstairs until the meal began.

Lin Yao sat cross-legged on the sofa, she had just gotten the remote control, and she was about to find a program she was interested in, when a red-haired woman took the initiative to find the door.

She didn't answer Tang Tang's words, but slowly raised her head and looked at Tang Tang in front of her.

Lin Yao, who was as cold as ice, faced the hot Tangtang, and Jiao Zuoren felt that he was extremely difficult when he stood in the middle. Ah, didn't Brother Qiao plan that the two of them would fight together?

At this time, Brother Qiao, who was playing cards, suddenly reacted, as if he had forgotten something, and quickly stood up from the ground, grabbed Lin Yao's arm and looked at Tang Tang, who was fighting with her, "It's almost there, you can't stop for the New Year."

Tang Tang didn't seem to hear it at all, and directly stepped forward and sat on the sofa next to Lin Yao, and directly knocked Brother Qiao's hand on Lin Yao's arm off, "You go away, our sisters are reminiscing, what are you talking about, don't force the old lady to hammer you"

Lin Yao, who was originally sitting on the sofa and staring at Tang Tang coldly, also sneered, and in an instant, the chill on her face regained her face, "What does it have to do with you?" Who told you to touch me? ”

Looking at the second daughter who was sitting on the sofa and blooming like a lotus, Brother Qiao understood how low his status was. When he turned around, he saw Qin Longzu Jiao Zuoren, who was looking at him laughing and holding back his laughter, Brother Qiao couldn't help but blush.

"Okay, okay, let's go out and play with fireworks" Brother Qiao glanced at the clock in the living room, waved his hand at everyone, and walked directly to the door.

As soon as everyone walked out, they saw a little silly boy with a black and gray face and a red tube in his hand, which he was about to ignite in his hand

Jiao Zuoren looked at this Bai Lian like a madman, and hurriedly snatched the lighter in his hand, "I'm you, you're going to play with your bare hands?" ”

"Damn, Brother Qiao, Jiao Zuoren, this is too fun for you" Bai Lian didn't care about what his face was already dirty, because he had been far away in the United States, although there was a custom of the New Year, but it was the first time that he set off firecrackers so enjoyable.

Looking at the excitement of this thing, Brother Qiao and the others had no desire to pay attention to him at all.

Jiao Zuoren picked up a box of various fireworks that he threw on the ground, and found that there were only some gadgets such as flying rats left inside. "I'm going, for nothing, didn't I tell you to stay more? Why are you all gone? You and Brother Qin bought so much, all of them? ”

As soon as he heard someone talking to him, and he didn't care what Jiao Zuoren said, Bai Lian immediately opened his teeth and danced his claws, "I'll tell you, this thing is so fun."

"You give me honesty, you don't have what we are playing?" Jiao Zuoren dragged Bai Lian, who was already crazy, and gave him a brain shot.

Bai Lian seemed to have just woken up, looked at the people standing around him, and smiled embarrassedly, "What's that, I, I'm playing hard, I forgot about it, hehe"

Brother Qiao shook his head helplessly, and looked at Qin Longzu on the side, Qin Longzu seemed to understand what he meant, "It's okay, isn't this just my appearance?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Qin Longzu, who was already holding red scales in his hands, and a ball of fire emerged from his hand.

"Damn, yes, Brother Qin is an expert in explosives, he usually blows up this and that, hahaha" Jiao Zuoren's head made a look of sudden awakening.

This sentence gave Qin Longzu a few fireballs in his hand that he almost didn't hold steady...

In this way, the ceremonial flowers symbolizing the opening of the Chinese New Year's Eve meal were replaced by Qin Longzu's "homemade" fireball explosion, and the people returned to the living room lively, this time Jiaozuo people deliberately did not go to the second-hand market, but went to buy a particularly large new dining table.

Even though there were only six people, the table, which could accommodate about ten people, didn't seem empty at all. Dishes carefully selected and made by Jiaozuo were put on the table.

Due to Brother Qiao's request, Jiao Zuoren prepared the ingredients for him in the afternoon, and at this time, except for Brother Qiao, who was still cooking the last dish in the kitchen, everyone else was already sitting in their respective seats, and the main seat was left to Brother Qiao.

Brother Qiao's hair was tied behind his head, and he walked out of the kitchen with a plate, and the only dish that Brother Qiao personally cooked was placed in the center of the table, a plate of squirrel fish, golden and red and green intertwined, making Jiao Zuo people feel that the dishes they made were really not comparable.

In fact, he didn't notice that after this plate of squirrel osmanthus was placed on the table, Tang Tang Lin Yao and Qin Longzu all had a trace of inexplicable sadness in their eyes.

"Hahaha, I'm sorry, Brother Qiao, this dish is delicious just by looking at it."

"Come, come, eat, eat"

"Oh, for the New Year, I have no place to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner alone, I don't know if everyone welcomes me?"
