Chapter 141: Hello New Year
"Come and make dumplings," the mother shouted at Yan Muqing, who was in a daze.
Yan Muqing came back to his senses, took three steps and ran into the house in two steps.
Yan's mother had already finished all the dough, and after rolling out a few dumpling skins, she saw Yan Muqing come in and put down the rolling pin and start making dumplings.
Yan Muqing consciously picked up the rolling pin and began to roll the skin. The mother and daughter chatted while making dumplings, and before they knew it, half an hour had passed.
"Let my dad tie up Xiao Hei in a while, look at its cowardice" Yan Muqing kicked the dog curled up at his feet, even if it was lying under the feet of a person, the sound of firecrackers outside would make it tremble for a while.
"The kittens and dogs are afraid of the sound of firecrackers, don't tie the shack for a while, lock it in the small west house, it is full of some food, but there is no problem with Jin'er" Mother Yan looked at Xiao Hei, who was lying on the back of the dog from time to time, and felt that it was a little pitiful.
"It's too cold this day, I hope it won't snow tomorrow" The mother and daughter were talking, and Yan Aiqing ran in from outside the house after pasting the Spring Festival couplets. Rubbing his hands that were a little red from the cold, the cool air all over his body made Yan Muqing shiver.
"The house heater is covered" Yan's mother put down a dumpling that had been wrapped, closed the door that Yan Aiqing had opened tightly, and then continued to come back to wrap it.
"What kind of stuffing" Yan Aiqing walked to the table and looked at it. "Yo, is it all meat this year?"
"yes, I don't have two kinds of stuffing, it's troublesome. If you want to be a vegetarian, you will wrap it in two days" Yan's mother quickly wrapped one and answered Yan Aiqing's question.
"Then my grandma can't talk about you" Grandma's ability to talk about people is known from far and near.
"She said it herself"
————————————————
By the time the dumplings were put into the pot, it was already dark. The street lights on both sides of the road have been lit up, the colorful flags hanging in the middle of the road are not known when to waive in the wind, the road surface is cleaned clean, the sound of firecrackers in the ears is getting louder and louder, more and more dense, and the doors of every household are pasted with Spring Festival couplets... It's the flavor of the New Year!
"Eat dumplings"
Yan Aiqing carried a plate full of dumplings, put them on the table, and shouted in her mouth.
On the large round table, six pairs of dishes and chopsticks are neatly arranged, a bowl of laba garlic is placed in the middle, and three large plates of dumplings are steaming.
Father Yan came in from outside, holding a bottle of red wine in his hand, and his face was also full of smiles.
Mom turned off the fire, and a family of six sat around the round table. "Open Eat"
Father Yan gave an order, and the index fingers of the six people moved.
"Well, this year's dumplings are so fragrant," the grandmother with dentures said sincerely after swallowing a mouthful of dumplings.
"Of course it's fragrant, the meat filling is too oily," Yan's mother said with a few dumplings in her grandmother's bowl.
A meal is a great pleasure.
As soon as the family sat around the TV, waiting for the start of the Spring Festival Gala, a voice came from the courtyard.
"Auntie, happy New Year" is Shi Xiaoying who came over with the two children.
Yan Muqing greeted him out.
"My sister-in-law is here, have you eaten?" Yan Muqing lifted the heavy curtain and welcomed the mother and son in.
"It's still warm in your house," Shi Xiaoying entered the house and said hello to everyone, and then ran directly to the set of heaters in the living room.
"Mrs., grandfather, third grandfather, third grandmother, aunt, uncle, happy New Year" The two little dolls, Xiaomei and Xiaoyuan, shouted obediently.
"Xiaomei, Xiaoyuan is coming to Mrs. soon" Grandma sat on the sofa, with a thin quilt on her legs, and when she saw a child coming, she grabbed a handful of peanuts and melon seeds from the tray on the coffee table and greeted the children.
After half a year of psychological intervention, Xiao Yuan is now not as timid as before, and leaned generously in his grandmother's arms, and after thanking him, the two children kissed on his grandmother's shriveled cheeks, one on the left and one on the right. This made Grandma so happy that her smiling eyes narrowed into a line.
"Grandma, you should rest quickly, these two children don't recognize their lives, they have eaten a lot at home, and after eating dumplings, they have to come to play with their aunt, and they are annoying me" Shi Xiaoying also sat on the sofa on the side at this time, and said with a smile.
"It's so close, I want my aunt to come by myself, my aunt has always been at home" Yan Muqing pulled Xiao Yuan, touched his hot little hand, and said.
"There are a lot of cars for the Chinese New Year, and the cars have not let them go out for several days, and they are almost suffocated," Shi Xiaoying said as she looked at the two children who were eating happily.
"Also, your parents didn't see each other, how many dumplings did your grandmother eat?" Yan's mother asked.
"After eating, let us come out to play, they cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and my grandmother ate five," Shi Xiaoying replied to Yan's mother's words.
"That's a lot of food" Shi Xiaoying's grandmother and grandmother are also old girlfriends, they fell a few years ago, and now they are still in a wheelchair. is about the same age as grandma, and when her legs and feet are neat, she often comes to stay at home to stay with grandma, and Lala is homely. But often they speak their own words, and both old ladies are deaf. She said her, she said her, but they both thought it was funny.
Sometimes I sighed, and said that seeing one side and missing the other, in my grandmother's words, now I live according to the points.
This year's Spring Festival Gala is also decent, but a lot of domestic and foreign stars were invited, Yan Muqing stayed up and waited until Lee Min Ho appeared, except for a scream, there was no imaginary excitement.
At more than nine o'clock, Xiaomei and Xiaoyuan couldn't stay up, Shi Xiaoying hugged one, Yan Aiqing carried one on his back, and sent them back. Grandma and Grandpa were also drowsy at ten o'clock, and went back to sleep without waiting for the New Year's bell. After watching Lee Min Ho was not a few minutes away from twelve o'clock, Yan Muqing washed his face, barely held on to a little, and waited for his father and Yan Aiqing to finish firing the cannon before going back to the house and lying down.
I was a little dazed just now and couldn't open my eyes, but I couldn't sleep after lying down. The custom of the hometown, on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the lights are bright, the lights in all the rooms are on, Yan Muqing does not have a little light and can't sleep, stay under the quilt for a while, sweating and not talking, the more stuffy the more energetic.
"Bell bell bell ~" When I was spreading pancakes left and right on the bed, my mobile phone rang.
Yan Muqing opened one eye and closed one eye, and looked at his mobile phone, it was Lu Anming.
"Hey~" phone call is connected
"Yanyan, Happy New Year" came from Lu Anming's somewhat excited voice.
"Happy New Year, why are you so noisy?" There was a commotion on the other side, and Yan Muqing had to listen very carefully to hear Lu Anming's voice.
"You wait a while" After speaking, there was a "stinging" sound from the mobile phone, and it was connected again after a while.
"Is it better now?" asked Lu Anming, panting.
"Where are you?" Yan Muqing lifted the quilt, it seems that she will change to a thinner quilt tomorrow.
"My sister and I are outside, there is a countdown event outside the Yuelai mall, this has just ended" Lu Anming replied to Yan Muqing's words with a smile.
"I was not at home to accompany your parents on Chinese New Year's Eve, and I ran outside in the cold"
"After eating dumplings, staying for a while, coming out at ten o'clock, what are you doing? Don't you think I'm going to do it?" Lu Anming laughed in a low voice.
"After eating dumplings, a few people came to the house, stayed for a while, and after watching Lee Min Ho wait for the cannon to be released, he drilled into the quilt" In the afternoon, I sent a group New Year's message to relatives, friends and customers, and I was idle at this time.
"If you don't want me, just think about Lee Min Ho" Lu Anming said a little girl.
"You also eat this vinegar? That's an idol, it's good to worship the gods, you're different, besides, you didn't answer when I called you just now, what did I say? Yan Muqing found the back account, and he didn't lose to Lu Anming.
"I didn't hear it, it was so noisy, it almost squeezed me and me away. I dug a hole for myself and gave you a chance to say that I am" Lu Anming is tragic.
"If you don't talk about me, how can I talk about you, you dig the pit yourself, you have to jump down on your knees" Yan Muqing could imagine his frustrated appearance and laughed in a low voice.
"It's okay, if you get married in the future, keyboard, washboard, durian, instant noodles, whichever you let you kneel, I'll kneel" After speaking, there was a sound of "puff" music over there.
"You haven't gone back yet?" Yan Muqing was surprised.
"I'm going back right away, and I said I'll go back after a New Year's greeting. I don't want to hang up the phone when I hear your voice," Lu Anming smirked again.
"Come on, go home quickly, it's such a cold day, I'm freezing and catching a cold again" is stupid again.
The two chatted for a while before closing the line.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Muqing went to drink saliva again, the living room had been cleaned up, and melons, fruits and sugar were re-placed on the coffee table. The dumplings covered with yellow paper with three curtains lay quietly on the coffee table, and two small gourds cut out of red paper were placed on each of them. Why did he do this, Mu Qing didn't know, anyway, since he can remember, the dumplings of the fifth watch are all wrapped out in advance, they will be covered with yellow paper, and small gourds or coins will be placed on them.
Yan Muqing, who poured a cup of herbal tea, the heat on his body faded a lot, and the sound of firecrackers outside the house continued...
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yan Muqing was still biting the chicken leg in her dream, only to feel a chill on her body, and slowly opened her eyes, and what she saw was Yan's mother's kind smile.
"Hmm, what time is Mom" Yan Muqing rubbed her somewhat confused eyes and asked.
"Come on, it's half past five," Yan's mother said with her somewhat cold hands, rubbing Yan Muqing's fair, slightly reddened face.
This ice made Yan Muqing immediately refreshed.
"It's still late at half past five, you don't want to sleep for a while," he said, pulling the quilt over again.
"Hurry up, get up so that your dad can set off the cannon, I'll cook dumplings, your grandma and grandpa are up, and Aiqing is starting to get dressed. I'll sleep in the afternoon," my mother said, holding down Yan Muqing's hand to pull the quilt, and folded it up.
Seeing this, Yan Muqing reluctantly began to dress.
"Hey, it's so cold" Yan Muqing, who was neatly dressed, walked out of the living room, and a small cool breeze hit her, waking her up instantly.
"Quick, quick, let me out" Yan Aiqing's anxious voice came from behind him.
Yan Muqing thought that he had taken a wrong step when he heard the voice, so Yan Aiqing ran out as if flying, and the target location: toilet.
This habit is really thunderous, and it is not delayed on the first day of the new year.
Seeing that the family members were all dressed, Yan's father lit the firecrackers that had been hung up in advance, and after a while, there was a crackling sound of firecrackers in the courtyard.
It's really "a year old in the sound of firecrackers, and the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu"
Hello in the new year...
