Chapter 265: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner

Twenty-seventh of the lunar month.

After everyone got up, they cleaned the yard again before and after, which means to sweep away the dust and sweep away all the bad luck in a year.

The twenty-eighth day of the lunar month.

Began to paste window grilles, couplets, and hung red lanterns.

Twenty-ninth of the lunar month.

I went to a neighboring village to buy tofu.

The thirtieth day of the lunar month.

This is the last day of the year, and when he got up early in the morning, Ye Xiaoyan pushed open the doors and windows, only to find that there were goose feather snowflakes floating in the gloomy weather at this time, and the whole village was instantly white.

Snow so pure that it can really sting people's eyes.

Turning around, he closed the window and opened the door, just as Liu was also coming out of the opposite room, and softly closed the door.

"It's still early, why did you get up?" Seeing Ye Xiaoyan, Liu Shi said with a chuckle.

In the past few days, I have nothing to do because I got up early, so everyone except Zeng Zimu was also lazy, and they all got up in the middle of the morning.

And now, it's just the appearance when it first entered the morning, and it's really early.

"It's snowing today, I heard that Ruixue is a good year, and next year will definitely be a bumper year!" Ye Xiaoyan didn't answer her words, and said with a smile.

"Definitely!" Ryu also smiled.

Immediately, the two of them went downstairs one after another, first boiled water and washed, and then hurriedly cooked breakfast and eaten, and began to prepare everything for the New Year.

First, the Liu family killed the chickens, ducks and fish, and then began to chop meatballs, boil fish and tofu, knead bread dumplings, and so on.

Zeng Zimu and San'er were naturally not idle, helping to light the fire, laying hands and hands, and they were busy in the stove room for a while.

Fortunately, this stove room is large enough to accommodate a few people.

The meat, chickens and ducks are directly cut into large pieces and boiled in the pot with spices, so that when the white mist curls in the stove, a burst of meat fragrance wafts into the air, which makes people salivate.

Guo Ling'er smelled the smell of meat, and her eyes were already very bright, knowing that she was greedy, Liu Shi made some for the four of them one after another, and tasted them together.

Ye Xiaoyan tasted a piece, and all the spices were used just right, just three points into the flavor, and he didn't feel strong or light.

After removing the meat from the pot, it begins to cook the tofu fish again, and when it is done, it is served out and frozen.

Then it's time to start cooking the dumplings.

At noon, I only eat boiled dumplings first.

Because it was the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the meat filling was also full and fragrant, and after the dumplings were cooked, the five people ate all of them after a while.

After eating the dumplings, I went to look at the tofu frozen fish outside and found that it had been frozen, so I brought it back and put it in the cupboard.

Then I started preparing for tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

After the meatballs are seasoned and chopped, they will take some of the soaked glutinous rice, and after filling it with a full sieve, they will start to steam it in the pot.

Then we start to cut the chicken and duck meat cooked with spices into large pieces, then heat the pot, add oil, and stir-fry.

When everything was ready, the sound of firecrackers was already ringing outside.

Looking up at the sky, it turned out to be unitary time.

Zeng Zimu and the three of them hung four lanterns in front of the house and behind the house, filled the lanterns with enough lamp oil to burn for one night, and then lit them.

The fire in the hall on the first floor was already burning extremely hot, and the whole cotton cover was extremely warm.

When all the dishes were served to the pot, Zeng Zimu took incense and lit the firecrackers for the Chinese New Year's Eve meal outside the courtyard.

A deafening crackling sound resounded throughout the courtyard, and Liu greeted several children with a smile.

Because it was dark early in winter, when San'er and Guo Ling'er went outside the courtyard to watch Zeng Zimu set off firecrackers, she picked up four red candles and lit them on the four corners and the middle of the long table.

Because the Chinese New Year's Eve meal also needs to worship ancestors, it is to perform the ancestor worship ceremony when the three people turn around after setting off firecrackers and close the courtyard door and wash their hands.

San'er is still young and doesn't understand this, and Liu's mother and daughter and Zeng Zimu are outsiders, so naturally it is not their turn to sacrifice, so this fell on Ye Xiaoyan's head.

And the ancestor of the Liu family, Ye Xiaoyan only knew about Old Man Liu, so she only sacrificed Old Man Liu and San'er's mother.

After all, it is San'er's biological father, which is a must.

After the sacrifice is over, it is time to sit down and eat.

There are a lot of dishes on the table today, and the plates are all meaty, and they look so rich.

Ye Xiaoyan poured the wine and raised his glass like Liu's, "I'm tired of working with Sister Liu today, this New Year's wine, I should respect you!" ”

Liu's usually doesn't drink, but today is the New Year, and he is naturally happy in his heart, so he also raised his glass and said with a smile, "I don't drink more than you, drink less!" ”

"Nature, Nature!" Ye Xiaoyan said with a smile, "Drinking during the New Year is a pleasure, and the meaning is done!" ”

After that, he only took a sip.

picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of meat for San'er first, and then a piece of chicken leg for Guo Ling'er, "Ling'er is the most well-behaved, this big chicken leg has to belong to Ling'er!" ”

"Thank you, Aunt Xiaoyan!" Looking at the chicken legs in the bowl, Guo Ling'er was gnawing on the meat, and smiled happily when she saw this, her eyes reflected in the candlelight, so dazzling.

"Eat more, too!" Glancing sideways at Zeng Zimu, Ye Xiaoyan said, "If you're happy, let's come and drink without getting drunk and not returning!" ”

"Excuse me!" Zeng Zimu was eating dumplings, and when he heard the words, he glanced at her, "The young master is not very strong in wine, so it's better not to take advantage of it!" ”

Last time, I had to drink a lot with Song Hongyi when I was young, and I don't even know how I went back later, this can't be done, a 'man' can drink, but he must not drink that virtue, otherwise what is the difference between him and the reckless drunkard on the street?

Ye Xiaoyan smiled, his eyes were sly and clear, "Our master is a good man, how can the apprentice who teaches him be a non-alcoholic?" Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, drink too much and go straight to bed! ”

This is also a bit reasonable, Zeng Zimu thought about it, and finally picked up the cup and her.

Because San'er and Guo Ling'er are still young, naturally they are not allowed to drink, and this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is to replace wine with tea.

The traditional custom is that a copper coin must be wrapped in the dumpling, which means that whoever eats the copper coin will have good luck on that person's head.

But Ye Xiaoyan thought about it carefully, and felt that it was not good, there were five people in total, but there was only one copper coin, and everyone wanted to eat it for themselves, so it was better not to include it.

This Chinese New Year's Eve dinner everyone ate well and was extremely happy.

After eating, I put away the dishes and chopsticks, and the group went upstairs again.

The brazier upstairs was naturally ready, and there were a lot of peanuts, horse beans, sugar cubes, and pastries on the table, and there were many glowing oil lamps around the room.

Therefore, when I came upstairs, I felt that the whole hall was as bright as day.
