Chapter 1267: The Magic of the Spring Festival Gala
The dumplings began to be cooked here, and Qu Weiyang and his son had to temporarily leave the TV and hurriedly go out to set off firecrackers.
If this is the usual time, the children will definitely go out to join in the fun and set off firecrackers.
But this year, the children didn't move at all, as if they were attracted by magnets, and they all sat firmly on the kang or stool, staring intently at the TV and watching the show.
Not to mention children, Qu Weiyang and others were the same, hurriedly set off firecrackers, and hurriedly ran back to the house to continue watching TV.
It wasn't until Qiaolian shouted in the kitchen to put the table and serve the dumplings that the people in the house reluctantly got up, put the table on the stool, and then served the dumplings to the top.
The magic of the Spring Festival Gala is beyond Qiaolian's imagination.
In the past, when eating dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve, the children stared at the dumplings on the plate one by one, eager to eat the money in one bite.
But now, these are staring at the TV one by one, casually holding dumplings and putting them in their mouths.
As a result, some people were not paying attention, and they were scorned by the money in the dumplings.
"Oh, what am I eating?" When I looked down, there was a touch of silver in the dumplings, which turned out to be money.
So I calmly took out the money and put it aside, continued to look up at TV, and ate dumplings while watching TV.
This meal of dumplings is called a slow one, everyone's mind is not on eating dumplings, they all watch TV.
At the end of the meal, I realized that it seemed that a lot of money had been eaten tonight, but no one shouted.
Qiaolian couldn't cry or laugh, who would have thought that the charm of this Spring Festival Gala was so great?
In this situation, Qiao Lian had no choice but to clean up the table at this time, so no one moved, just kept watching.
It wasn't until the end of the party at half past twelve that there was nothing on the screen, it was all snowflakes, and everyone realized that the dumplings had already been eaten and were still on the table.
"Come, hurry up and pick it up." Qu Weiyang saw it and hurriedly beckoned his sons to work.
So everyone started to fold the leftover dumplings into a few plates, and the remaining empty plates and everything were brought to the kitchen to be washed, cleaned up and then returned to the house.
Then Qu Weiyang and Qiaolian sat on the kang, and Jiakang led his daughter-in-law, younger brother, and younger siblings to greet the New Year in unison.
"Happy New Year, Mom and Dad, and I wish you both good health and all the best."
"Good, good, all good, all good. I also wish you all success in your careers, family harmony, and better year by year. ”
Qu Weiyang and his wife nodded with a smile and beckoned Jiakang and the others to sit down.
Then, Xue Qing and Ming Xuan also led their younger brothers and sisters forward and bowed, "Grandpa and grandma have a happy new year, I wish grandparents good health and a long life." ”
Several babies shouted in unison, and at a glance, they knew that this was all trained in advance.
"Okay, oops, my grandchildren are all big, one is more sensible than the other, and in a few years, these big girls and young men will be so rare.
Come on, grandparents have prepared red envelopes for the New Year, and I will give you New Year's money today. ”
Qu Weiyang and Qiaolian each took out a stack of red envelopes and distributed them to the children, each red envelope was wrapped in 50 yuan, and the couple gave double shares, which was equivalent to a child having a red envelope of 100 yuan.
Anyway, the two of them have money in their hands, and their sons and daughters-in-law are not less than they give for the New Year, and they don't have much to spend, so who else can they give if they don't give it to the children?
"Grandpa, grandma, we're all older, don't want red envelopes."
Xue Qing and Ming Xuan hurriedly waved their hands, they are both fourteen or fifteen, they are older children, and it is not good to collect the New Year's money again.
"Nonsense, your parents don't dare to say that they have grown up in front of us, and you little dolls still say that they have grown up?
You're 80 years old, and you're in front of your grandparents, and that's a child. ”
Qiao Lian glared at the children, and then at Mei Lin and Yu Shu, needless to say, this must be what the two daughters-in-law said to the children, not to let the children have to press the New Year's money.
"Come, take it for you, don't be polite to us." Qiao Lian directly stuffed the red envelope into the children's hands.
When Xue Qing and Ming Xuan saw this, they couldn't refuse anymore, so they thanked their grandparents and happily took the red envelope and played.
"You don't have to worry about the family, your father and I don't have a salary and a pension, just the money you get back in one year is enough for us to spend for many years, so we don't have to save it.
There are only a few children in the family, which one of them I am very precious, it is just to give a little New Year's money, and it is not much, we can get it. ”
These words were said to Meilin and Yushu.
Mei Lin and Yu Shu were a little embarrassed, "Mom, we think that the fourth child is going to get married, and the fifth child doesn't know when the person who will be brought back will also have to get married."
The expenses at the back of the house are not small, and I don't want my parents to break too much. ”
The two daughters-in-law and Qiaolian have been together for so many years, and when they heard it, they knew that their mother-in-law was talking about them, so they quickly explained.
"I know you're all for the good of the family, it's okay, the fourth child of our family said that the daughter-in-law has money, don't worry."
Qiaolian didn't mean to blame her daughter-in-law, after so many years of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Qiaolian knew that her daughters-in-law were kind.
But Qiaolian didn't want to deprive the children of the rare fun, but it was only one hundred and eighty yuan, and it was only once a year.
If this is averaged into daily life, isn't it only three cents a day? A few popsicles, what's the big deal?
The two daughters-in-law smiled and were about to say something, when suddenly the phone rang at home.
Over there, Jiahe hurriedly picked up the phone, it turned out to be Wanying calling, "Dad, Mom, it's Wanying's phone, she said she wants to give you New Year's greetings on the phone." ”
Wanying rushed home directly after getting off the show and called as soon as possible.
Qu Weiyang and Qiao Lian hurriedly went down to answer the phone, "Hey, Wanying, how are you today?"
Tired or not? When you're tired, rest early. Qiao Lian smiled and chatted with Wanying.
"Mom, Happy New Year, Dad, Happy New Year." Wan Ying's voice came from the phone.
"Mom, I'm okay, I'm not too tired, I'll go home as soon as I get off the show, this is just after entering the door, I called home.
I guess I must have watched the show at home quite late, and I haven't slept yet. ”
Wanying is very happy, she can show her face at this kind of national TV evening, or host the show, and she is excited to be anyone.
"Mom, I'll take the car to Shenyang in the morning, stay in Shenyang for one night, and then take the morning bus and go home, and we'll see each other tomorrow night."
After 12 o'clock at midnight, it was the first day of the first month.
Wanying took the car back in the morning of the first day of the new year, went to Shenyang in the evening, got up early in the second day of the new year and walked from Shenyang, and arrived at the Xianren Bridge in the evening.
"Okay, okay, I told Jiahe to let him ride to pick you up.
No way, there is no car to pull your feet in the middle of the night, you wear more, but don't freeze. ”
It stands to reason that the Zhu family is in Daying, and if Wanying has a good relationship with her mother's family, she can get out of the car and live in Daying, and wait for the morning to return to the county.
But over the years, Wanying and her mother's family have not been salty or light, and at most they have given Lao Zhu some money to spend, as for the others, Wanying and her parents are too lazy to take a look, so naturally they will not go back to live.
