The new peach has changed the old charm, except for the second house, the other houses have been pasted with couplets, and the warehouse where rice is hoarded is also pasted with a rich character, and the heavenly money on the door frame is even more swept up and put down by the wind.

The Du Mei sisters have cooperated tacitly, and they have successively done a good job of cold dishes, hot dishes, big meat and small stir-fries.

Wei picked seven bowls of vegetables, loaded three bowls of rice, and brought them to the hall to worship their ancestors. The boy knelt and burned the paper money, and kept praying in his mouth, the girl and the woman could only stand aside and watch, and when the paper money burned out, Du Shicheng led the kowtow one by one in order.

When Du Mei and Du Ying went to chop vegetables in the morning, they had already bought paper money at the west end of the village for his father to burn.

After these are busy, the sun has set in the west, a crescent moon hangs a dark blue canopy, chickens are in the nest, cows are lying in the trough, and the Du family is also eating.

Today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year's Eve, the emphasis is on reunion, Xu Shi also came to the kitchen to eat with juniper.

Led by the old couple of Du Shicheng, the men sat at one table, and the women and children sat at another table. Twelve dishes were served to each table in turn. The men's table was drinking hot soju, and the women's table was filled with autumn grape wine, that is, Zhou and Xie served a cup. Xu's can't drink it, Du Mei sisters and Du Xing are female dolls, and they don't stick to it, so they each have a glass of sugar water.

"I ate three yuan, and I won three yuan." The smiling Wei said as he scooped Du Jie's balls.

"Hmm. Grandma Xie. Du Jie stood up and respectfully raised the bowl to take it.

Du Shicheng also gave Sanjin sour bamboo shoots, the bamboo shoots have knots, and the picture is high. Sanjin knew that his father was still looking forward to him going further, being admitted to a lifter, and glorifying his ancestors.

The old couple also brought food to Dajin and his son, and said some auspicious words.

The family toasted together, and this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner officially began.

The meat and wine are hot, the family eats and drinks, and talks about the interesting stories in the village and the harvest in the fields. They all tried not to mention the two golds, so as not to spoil the atmosphere and be unlucky.

The men of the four grandchildren were lifted to sit on the men's seats, but they were not allowed to drink soju. The three brothers of the big house were greedy, and when they ate half of it, they went to their mother's table to ask for grapes to drink, and Dajin saw that his father was not annoyed, so he went with them. After all, Du Jie is younger than them, and he is a Sven, so he only drinks sugar water and eats vegetables and drinks soup like the girls.

Du Shicheng was not happy, and his heart was not happy, but he was hindered by the New Year, and he didn't show it in his words. The amount of alcohol is not as good as before, and after drinking three or five glasses with his two sons, he waved his hand and stopped pouring it.

He also ate the dishes on the table without a bite, but he liked the bowl of duck soup very much. The duck soup was simmered in a clay bowl and simmered on a small stove for more than an hour. The bones are crispy and the meat is rotten, and the dried thunder mushrooms are added, which is refreshing and sweet. Du Shicheng unconsciously drank two bowls of soup and ate some meat.

Good teeth, like the Daikin family, they prefer spicy tastes, drinking soju is already spicy all the way from the throat, coupled with the spicy and fresh fragrance of the duck pieces, the whole cavity seems to be on fire.

But I can't help it, the taste is too tempting. Because it is an old duck, the meat is firm, and it is very chewy after being dipped in juice, and the hand can't stop, and the mouth refuses to stop, so I have to wait until I have eaten it, and then pour tea to extinguish the fire.

Since Du Shicheng got sick, his appetite has been small, and he saw that the family was bored and bored. He got up and planned to go back to the house, where the children and grandchildren might have eaten more without him.

This may be the last reunion dinner for this family, and he is a little panicked.

Seeing that the master was leaving, Wei also stood up and wanted to support him.

Du Shicheng was most tired of the old woman's behavior, as if he was seventy or eighty years old. He shook off his old wife's hand and walked towards the door himself.

He walked past Xu's side, only to see Juniper lying in Xu's arms, looking at him with dark eyes, Du Shicheng couldn't help but feel a sigh in his heart, and reached out to hug the baby.

Seeing that his father-in-law suddenly wanted to hold the child, Xu hurriedly and carefully handed Juniper into the hands of the old man. Du Shicheng hugged one hand in his arms, and the rough fingertips of the other hand caressed the child's delicate cheeks.

It has been seven days since the child was born, and it is no longer the crumpled appearance when he was born. The skin on his face was long and pink, his eyes were round and bright, the marks of his eyelids were very heavy, and his hair was black and thick, which was the most like Erjin.

Du Shicheng looked pity-loving and loving, and Juniper did not recognize life. In Grandpa's arms, he didn't cry or make trouble, he sucked his fingers by himself, and grinned occasionally.

Du Shicheng was stunned, as if he had returned to the time when Er King Kong was born. He shook his head, returned the child to Xu, and said, "Take it well." ”

"Whoa." Xu took the child and bent his knees to bless. Her heart is also painful, but today is not the time to be sad, she is a younger generation who should not provoke the tears of the elderly.

"You have a good time eating today, there are guests coming to Ming'er, and the women's family can't serve it." Wei Shi admonished.

"Harmony vegetables, you eat more." Wei glanced at Zhou and Xie.

The so-called Japanese vegetables are assorted vegetables, celery, garlic, spinach, shutters, etc., plus dried mushrooms picked up from the soaked mountain, fried separately and then mixed together, intermingling and intertwining.

Zhou and Xie naturally knew that their mother-in-law meant something, but they were just asking them to live in harmony, not quarrel or quarrel, and live in harmony in the coming year. Both of them were red to their necks, and they didn't know whether they were ashamed, or they drank grapes to make their faces.

The two old men went back to their own room, and no one was restrained in the kitchen, so they sat casually for a while, and even put the two tables of their favorite dishes in one place.

Du Mei saw that there was still a commotion in the kitchen for a while, and when the sisters had finished eating, they hugged Xu and went back to their own house to stay.

"Third brother, in the future, our family will point to you and Xiaojie to be developed. Hiccup......" Daikin said as he grabbed Sanjin's hand and said with a red face.

"Big brother, I still have to take care of you at home, I just know a few words." The amount of Sanjin wine is shallow, and at this time he is already six or seven points drunk.

"The two of us don't have to say anything, it's a pity that the second child ......" Dajin felt sour.

"Ahem, pour a few cups of yellow soup, I don't know what day it is!" Zhou stopped the conversation in time.

Daikin was shocked all of a sudden, half sobered up from the wine, borrowed the vegetables, and swallowed the words back.

"Brother and sister, let's have a drink." The Zhou people are tall and big, and drinking grape wine is like drinking sugar water, and their faces are not inconspicuous.

Xie Shi, who drank the wine, had a pink face and peach cheeks, and she raised her glass and touched it under Zhou's wine glass: "Sister-in-law, I won't mention the past." Let's have a good time in the future, and we can't let others see the jokes. ”

"Well, that's the harmony of the family." Sanjin accompanied a cup.

The three brothers of the big house couldn't enjoy drinking grapes, so they drank soju with Du Shu. Du Xuan took advantage of the time when his father and brothers were talking from the bottom of their hearts and stole a cup. The three brothers drank separately, all of them so spicy that their tongues staggered, and hurriedly rinsed their mouths with grape brew as sugar water.

Du Jie looked at the three cousins and sneered in his heart: "If there is a day when you will come out in the future, you will have to stay away from these three roe deer, and you can't afford to lose this person." ”

Du Xing pouted, yesterday the eldest aunt almost wanted to dismantle her and eat her, and now she is drinking with her mother affectionately, I don't know which one to sing?

When the big gin was drunk, he rolled a cigarette and smoked it. Sanjin usually doesn't smoke, but today the two brothers chatted speculatively, from playing with mud to getting married and having children.

He saw that his eldest brother was smoking so much that he couldn't help but want one. Looking at the appearance of his clumsy cigarette, Dajin smiled, took half of the cigarette in his mouth, and stuffed it into Sanjin's mouth. I quickly rolled another one, and lit the cigarette on Sanjin's mouth.

Sanjin had never smoked, but was sniffed hard by Dajin, the tobacco burned vigorously, and a mouthful of cigarette went straight to his mouth, rushing, spicy, choking, Sanjin coughed very unproductively.

"Still not a gentleman?" Daikin smiled and patted Samjin on the back.

Xie Shi made a gesture to snuff out his cigarette, but Sanjin gave up, he learned from Dajin, and actually smoked like that.

"Do you want another one?" Daikin teased.

"Big brother is at his own convenience, at his own convenience." Sanjin shook his hand again and again, and his tongue was numb.

A room smelled of smoke, Du Jie and Du Zao glanced at each other, and went back to their own house with a tacit understanding.

The three Du Shu brothers had also eaten the throat tube and could no longer plug it. The three of them were playing with small cannons in the courtyard, and the small cannons fell off the whip and did not explode.

There are only two people left in the kitchen, the big room and the third room, and the Zhou family and the Xie family are also full. Seeing that the two brothers were chattering like chatter, and if they insisted on separating, they were afraid that they would go crazy with wine, so they went with them.

Zhou had the heart to talk to Xie, and began to pick up the bowls, chopsticks, cups and plates that he had eaten. Xie Shi saw that her sister-in-law was moving, she had just expressed her attitude, and it was not easy to stand idly by, so she stepped forward to help.

"Brother and sister, I can see that you are a blessed person. Uncle is a talent, and Du Jie will also be promising in the future, unlike me. Zhou, who was washing the dishes, glanced at Xie and said.

"Sister-in-law, I have to envy you, three sons, all of them. In the future, I will marry a daughter-in-law, and I will spread out the branches and leaves, how lively it is. Xie Shi said along with Zhou.

"Which is so easy? I can't afford just three bride price dollars. Hello, only Du Jie is a boy, and there is a subsidy from his mother's family. Zhou said without raising his head.

"My little rent is not enough for their father and son to have a year's pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and I can't open my mouth to my mother-in-law, you see that I am glamorous, but I am really suffering by myself." Xie Shimian was intoxicated, she didn't know what Zhou was going to say to her, so she saw the move.

"So we are the same." Zhou brushed the dishes and began to wash the stove.

"It's not, this family is living, outsiders look lively, how do you know the hardships here." Xie threw a piece of bait to test Zhou.

"Dad said that he was going to split up, I think he was probably angry." Zhou vigorously wiped a grease stain on the lid of the pot.

"Yesterday at noon, Sanjin persuaded my father to come, but my father didn't seem to be very happy." Xie Shi understood in his heart, it turned out that Zhou wanted to probe his own style.

"Yesterday at noon? Heck, our family is shooting at the mountain lake. What did Dad say? Zhou was annoyed that he had missed such an important matter.

"Dad said, 'I'll talk about it after the New Year.'" Xie Shi glanced at Zhou's monkey's anxious expression.

"Seriously, brother and sister, do you want to split up?" Zhou thought that Xie was drunk and deliberately tricked her words.

"Sanjin is a talent, and Du Jie is also going to take the imperial examination, we can't afford to lose face." Xie Shi pretended to sigh and said.

Hearing these words in Zhou's ears, it means the same as saying that he wants to split up.

"Hey, who doesn't want to have both face and lining, but I have three sons, and I can't afford it." The Zhou family had already put the Xie family in her camp.

"Sister-in-law, what's the use of what you just want? There are also people in this house who don't want to. Xie rubbed sand in Zhou's eyes.
