Chapter 170: Siege
The old man glanced out of the window, and saw Li Hongmei pulling the bolt into the door, raised his hand and touched Yunsheng's head, "Xiangnan, you keep the oil and eat it slowly, there are many people in the family today, don't take any good things outside, you know?" ”
This kid is good at everything, but his hands are too loose and he treats others too sincerely.
The old lady sighed as well, took out the bones of the stewed soup from the basket, took another piece of pork, and asked the old man to put the basket back on the board.
"Dress, eat dumplings today, just have pork and cabbage, you can keep these things and eat them slowly, don't take them out."
"Milk, there are so many people in our family, we can't eat enough dumplings." Yunshang pouted, with a look of disapproval, "Today's New Year's Day is once a year." Let's get a few more dishes, sit together as a family, and have a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. ”
Seeing that the old lady's expression was slightly relaxed, Yunshang continued, "Milk, how much can I eat alone, it will be warm after the New Year, this big basket of meatballs and meat will not be put for long, if it is broken, it will be banned." ”
The old lady glanced at the golden fried meatballs in the basket, then looked at the half of the ribs at the bottom, and the two pork belly weighing more than ten catties, and then thought about Yunsheng's small belly, and nodded helplessly.
Yunshang suddenly came to his senses, and took things out of the basket one by one, "Milk, this is braised beef, cut a plate at night, and then burn a braised pork, and make a few ribs braised together." There are also sweet potatoes and meatballs, which can be boiled in soup, and then made a plate to roast tofu, and stir-fried two vegetarian dishes...... By the way, there is still wine in the cabinet, let my father and my second uncle have two sips at night. ”
As soon as he heard that there was wine at home, the old man was not calm, his mouth sipped, and he swallowed his saliva, "Xiangnan, is it the wine produced by the winery in our county?" ”
"Yes! Last time, Second Brother Gu and I bought it in the county, and we bought two bottles! ”
The old man smiled and said, "Okay, I'll drink two cups in the evening." ”
Several people returned to the main house with a full amount of food in their hands, and Li Hongmei's eyes straightened, especially when she saw a large piece of pork in the old lady's hand, as well as the meatballs and fried sweet potatoes in the Yunshang oil paper bag, and her saliva was rushing out.
Yunshang glanced at Li Hongmei's deflated stomach, knowing that it was the time for her to be gluttonous, she thought about it, poured a few vegetarian balls into the bowl, and handed them to Li Hongmei.
Li Hongmei's eyes lit up, took the bowl, ate the balls in a few bites, licked her oily lips, rolled up her sleeves, and helped the old lady with great energy.
Yunshang pulled the bolt and lay on the kang table, pushed open the plate of fruit candy, you and I eat fried sweet potatoes one by one to satisfy my hunger.
At noon, the family had a simple lunch and rested, and the old lady took Yun Shuilian and Li Hongmei and began to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Wash the meat and pork ribs, chop them into small pieces, fry them in a small iron pan, and then put them on the stove and simmer over low heat.
After that, I washed the cabbage, mixed the noodles, chopped the meat, and the family worked together, and soon made two grate dumplings.
When Yun Shuilian was cooking dumplings, the old lady cut a plate of beef, mixed a plate of roasted tofu shreds, fried a plate of tofu skin, a plate of sour and hot cabbage, a plate of shredded potatoes, and finally burned a pot of ball soup on the stove, plus braised pork, a total of six dishes and one soup, Chinese New Year's Eve rice is done.
Yunshang took out the liquor from the cabinet and put it on the dining table in the middle of the room, and then went to the next door and brought the widow Wang over.
The atmosphere of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was very good, although the widow Wang's brain was not sober, only immersed in her own world, but she did not cry or make trouble, just ate quietly, as well-behaved as a plug.
Li Hongmei, who has always been greedy and brainless, may have given Yun Xiang a few balls in advance to relieve her hunger, or maybe because today is Chinese New Year's Eve, she wants to take a good intention, and she has not made trouble, and she also talked to everyone with a smile from beginning to end, taking care of the plug and eating.
The old man and Yun Erchuan had wine, and the father and son kept clinking glasses to satisfy their hunger with a table full of dishes and dumplings.
And the old lady and Yun Shuilian pulled Yun Sheng to sit in the middle, picking vegetables and serving dumplings, for fear that she would not be able to reach her and eat one less bite than others......
………………
In the county town, Zhang Chunni had to work overtime on Chinese New Year's Eve, Gu Shinian and Gu Pangui had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, found a lunch box, filled a box full of dumplings, packed two stir-fried vegetables, and sent Zhang Chunni with a flashlight.
Zhang Chunni came out of the workshop, took off her mask, patted the clothes on her body, brushed her dusty hair, turned on the faucet, washed her hands and face, and walked to the lounge next to the boiler room.
Seeing Gu Shinian standing at the door of the lounge, Zhang Chunni hurriedly took a few steps and took the lunch box in Gu Shinian's hand.
"It's so cold, why don't you wait in the lounge?" After speaking, he asked again, "Have you had dinner with Gu Pangui?" ”
The two entered the door, and Gu Shinian sat down on the stool, "I've eaten." Gu Pangui made dumplings and fried two dishes today, you can eat them quickly. ”
"Okay, it's not early, it's not easy to walk on the road, you go back first. I bring my lunch box back after work. ”
Zhang Chunni opened the lunch box as she spoke, lowered her head, and stuffed dumplings one dumpling after another into her mouth.
Probably because she was so hungry that she didn't even have time to chew the dumplings in her mouth, she swallowed them directly, and she didn't even have time to take care of the years.
Gu Shinian didn't speak, and waited until Zhang Chunni had almost eaten before she spoke, "I'm going to find Ah Sheng after lunch tomorrow, and I won't come back in the past few days." If you're free, go to the school and finish my schooling. ”
Zhang Chunni paused for a moment while eating, and looked at Gu Shinian with a frown, "Third child, have you really thought about it?" Don't be like you used to be and skip school after two days of school. ”
"I've figured it out." Gu Shinian paused for a moment, and then continued, "After I go to school, you will also arrest Gu Pangui's affairs." After the Chinese New Year, she will be 16, and it depends on whether she will continue to go to school or look for a job, and she can't stay at home all the time and do nothing. ”
"Okay, I know, I'll make arrangements for you and Gu Pangui after the fifth day of the new year."
Zhang Chunni lowered her head and continued to eat as she spoke, Gu Shinian put on the scarf and gloves on the table, said hello to Zhang Chunni, and strode out of the factory.
It was almost nine o'clock, and although it was Chinese New Year's Eve, there was no New Year's atmosphere in the entire Qinghe County, and even fewer pedestrians on the street than in the past, which was even more depressed and cold.
Gu Shinian went down the street, passing by a small alley, and five or six people ran out of it, surrounding Gu Shinian in the middle.
