"What's there to worry about, we don't lack rice and noodles, we don't lack coal, we just buy what we want to eat." I bowed my head and tied the yarn. I wanted to knit a plum blossom in the front of the sweater and a few branches in the back, but it was too difficult and I would make a mistake if I wasn't careful. No, I'm going to ask Aunt Jin Xiu.

"I mean, let's celebrate the New Year together, now I live with you, there is no reason for me to go to them for the New Year, they must come over, but this house is rented by you, and the things you buy back are also bought back, this matter still has to ask you in the final analysis. I listen to you. "She kept looking at me.

Although my grandmother is facing me, it is always his son and grandson over there. I don't want to make too much of a fuss at all.

I smiled: "Milk, you know my relationship with them, I don't have the time and energy to do anything for the New Year to serve them, I want to do more work before the year to save some money." You've been tired for a year, and they're here, ostensibly honoring you, but they're only going to eat and drink, and you're not the one who suffers in the end? Let them have a reunion dinner directly on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. I can still afford this money and hard work, as for the rest, I will be exempted. ”

Grandma said: "Your dad won't be happy, I'm also afraid of others gossiping." Obviously, the family is separated for the New Year. ”

"Who's behind no one's back? My dad, you'd better tell me, New Year's holidays, birthday celebrations or something, you can avoid it, make so many false tricks, and in the end it won't make the relationship closer, so why bother yourself. ”

Grandma looked at me for a long time, and then sighed: "Kasumiko, I know you are an excellent person, but your personality has become so cold now, I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing." ”

"You don't want me to be stronger?" I laughed.

Grandma took my hand: "Of course I want you to be strong, but as a woman, your personality is still gentle before anyone will hurt." Otherwise, I will be so stubborn in the future, and I am worried that my marriage will not go well in the future. ”

I put the sweater pin down and hugged my grandmother with a smile: "Milk! Don't always talk about my marriage, how old I am! I'm not gentle, but don't you love me just as much? As long as you like me, I don't care about anyone else. ”

"Okay, grandma loves you. It's good that you're like a kid now. Grandma touched my hair and smiled lovingly.

Since that beating, I've been wearing my hair short and getting a haircut once a month, which is a bit expensive, but I don't want to be ridiculed just to save money. In this life, it is much more profitable, at least it will not be overstretched and ridiculed.

Grandma told my dad what I meant, and he lost his temper, saying that I was a white-eyed wolf with no conscience. I also wanted to come and live with the family until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but because my grandmother said that I still have to study, and the house is too small, I can only give up.

Although I also said that I don't want to prepare things for the New Year at all, I still want some things, such as some New Year's food.

Add sugar and sesame seeds to the noodles, roll them into thin dough cakes, cut them into diamond-shaped dough sheets, and fry them in an oil pan, which is called ingots. The meatballs mixed with radish and minced meat are golden and especially delicious when they are freshly fried.

Grandma also fried a lot of hairtail fish, tofu, meat strips, potato strips, dough and fruit, mixed with egg flakes and starch and flour in the oil pan, fried one by one, golden and crispy, very delicious. When it is time to make soup, as long as you put some shredded cabbage in the pot, it can be delicious, or cold salad or stir-fry, you can eat it for a month.

I bought a white chicken, some frozen goods, peanuts, melon seeds and sugar cubes or something.

At that time, everyone's life was not very good, and everyone could only eat better during the New Year.

Everything was stored and frozen outside. Lin Tian was very quiet over there, and he didn't hear anything Li Qiongzhen was preparing. I thought to myself, I guess there is a chance that I won't be here for the New Year.

There are already sporadic firecrackers in the streets and alleys, and many children run around every day, throwing firecrackers everywhere.

My grandmother went out to pour ashes, but she was so frightened that she almost slipped, so angry that I took a broom and hit them.

Grandma hurriedly stopped me: "Forget it! It's all children who don't understand, and it's good to grow up. ”

I hurriedly said: "It's just a lack of beating!" If this scares you out, will it be? ”

"I'm fine! It's just a few days a year, why go and pour cold water on people. You liked to play for the first two years, and suddenly you've grown up. Grandma smiled and pulled me in.

I smiled, it was from my previous life.

People grow up so quickly, and when I saw these bear children, I thought of what Wenbao and them did to me last year, and a year has passed.

Grandma said, "Let's make dumplings today, sauerkraut filling!" ”

The sauerkraut we pickled last autumn tasted just right, so we wrapped a little sauerkraut meat dumplings and buns and froze outside.

I also prepared 30 dumplings filled with pure meat for my grandmother, I remember she once mentioned to me, when she was a girl, she once visited relatives, saw people eat pure meat dumplings, she couldn't sleep at night, every Chinese New Year I thought about pure meat dumplings, and I have been thinking about pure meat dumplings for decades.

"How expensive this pure meat is!" Grandma was a little reluctant: "Let's add vegetables!" I can pack dozens more! ”

I smiled and said, "Milk, don't you want to eat, then just eat!" Can't you eat something you love during the New Year? Just the two of us, we don't have to save money. "I can't help but wrap it up.

Grandma was delighted and stroked the chubby dumplings with her hand.

These dumplings, I hid in the bottom jar and froze, my father will definitely come on the thirtieth day, I can't let them eat them.

was busy working, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, it was Lin Tian who pushed the door in, he was wearing a black cotton jacket and a gray neck cover, very energetic. He was carrying a bag of carp in his hand, and there were three or five of them, each of which was more than three catties, and it was really a big fish.

Grandma came out: "It's a little God!" Why are you here? ”

"Auntie! I sent a few from our unit! Eat it and you'll be able to eat it every year! ”

Grandma was very happy, looked at it and said, "This fish is so good, but it is such an expensive thing, you better keep it for yourself and eat it!" "We thought the fish was too expensive, so we didn't buy it, we just bought a small tarpon, and we thought about the meaning, but we didn't expect him to give several at once.

"Auntie, don't be polite, the two of us can't eat so much. You helped our family Qiongzhen burn the stove this winter, this is a little bit of my heart. You can just keep it and eat it. ”

I was taken aback, looked at him and said, "You didn't even go to the Lin family for the New Year?" "Although his mother has passed away, he is still surnamed Lin now, and his home is in the local area, so he didn't even go over the New Year?

Lin Tiandao: "I will have less contact with the Lin family in the future, and we will not meet as much as possible." ”

"Why is that? I see that you have a good relationship with Lin Jing, could it be that the adults of their family ......" Before I finished asking, I was given a fist by the grandmother behind me: "Xiazi, you go and flip the dumplings on the curtain!" How old are you to start meddling? So many words! ”

I was beaten by my grandmother, and I regretted it a little, but because I cared too much about Lin Jing, I actually asked. But grandma hates this kind of spying on people's privacy.

Lin Tian said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, they are actually very good to me, but I still want to have a home of my own." They... It's a relative. ”

I guess he didn't tell the truth, but I didn't want to ask too much about the grievances and grievances, and my grandmother whispered a few words of comfort.

Over there, Li Qiongzhen began to shout for Lin Tian to pass, she now has a big belly, it is difficult to move, and she is even more delicate.

When he couldn't see Lin Tian for a while, he anxiously asked him to go back, Lin Tian said a few polite words to his grandmother, and was about to leave.

At this time, my grandmother asked me to bring him two sauerkraut: "I pickled it at home, don't dislike it, I eat it and it tastes good." ”

"That's great, my friend likes to eat sauerkraut."

I walked to the sauerkraut jar, fished out the sauerkraut and put it in the basin, and when I looked up and saw Lin Tian standing beside me, his expression was a little serious, and I didn't know what he was thinking.

He suddenly said, "Don't tell Lin Jing what I said to you." ”

I nodded, "I understand." ”

He smiled and said, "Although you are a child, I always unconsciously treat you as an adult." ”

"You're right to think of it as an adult." But don't think that Zhang, I will definitely seduce Lin Jing.

"Don't mind what happened before, I really misunderstood you. I'll also explain it to Lin Jing's parents. ”

I put the sauerkraut in a basin and handed it to him: "It's okay, I forgot everything!" If you take it back and say it, people will definitely think that something big is wrong, so you can take it and eat it, Comrade Lin. ”

"Thank you." He took it with a smile and strode out.

As soon as I entered the door, I was reprimanded by my grandmother: "Xiazi, you are not allowed to ask anything in the future, you are a girl, don't be like a woman with a long tongue!" How can it be good after such gossip? Besides, how embarrassed is it to make people small? ”

"I see." I bowed my head and confessed.

My grandmother and I cleaned up and started making frozen dumplings again.

Grandma rolled the dumpling wrappers and said, "Lin Tian, that kid looks good to me." But it's not a good life. ”

"He's going to be fine, he's going to be a man like a mountain, very good at taking care of people, and having a good temper." I laughed.

Grandma didn't say anything, and sighed after a while: "The more people like this, the worse their lives often become." ”

I didn't squeak, I said in my heart, he now has a job, money, freedom, and a pregnant wife, what is not content?

After a few busy days, it was finally the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

In the morning, my grandmother and I didn't cook, so we ate corn nest and meatball soup casually, and then we started to make steamed buns.
