Chapter 42: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve
On Chinese New Year's Eve, Lin Ran showed his skills in the kitchen, doing his best to cook today's Chinese New Year's Eve meal.
Xiao Jin was in charge of chores, either bringing the dishes that had been prepared to the table, or giving Lin Ran the seasonings that he lacked.
Tang Xin posted the couplet and blessing characters at the door, "The return of the five mountains does not look at the mountain, and the six classics are read and written".
Han Yan was like a little daughter-in-law, cleaning up the table, arranging the dishes brought by Xiao Jin in line with human aesthetics, putting on the dishes, chopsticks and cups, thinking about it, she took out another bottle of wine and put it on the table.
It's a festive day.
Soon, the dishes were served one by one, and the three of them were seated and ready to start.
Xiao Jin's share, Lin Ran had already prepared it for him alone, anyway, he would be fed and drunk, which could be regarded as compensation for his regret that he couldn't serve the table.
After all, he didn't have a snake on the table and didn't have a dish in his hands......
The table is full of vegetables, all of which are steamed lambs, steamed bear's paws, and steamed deer tails. Roast duck, roasted goose...... emm accidentally reported the name of the dish.
Not to mention how much effort this meal wasted Lin Ran, just talking about the time, he started preparing it from more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and now it is ready at seven o'clock.
Lin Ran poured wine on three goblets, two of them handed the two mascots, and the three of them clinked glasses gently, their eyes full of smiles.
There is no representative speech process, just one word: eat!
The three big stomachs were swept away, and the dishes on the table were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, knowing that there was nothing left.
These are really three good young people who don't have leftovers......
The two mascots helped Lin Ran clean up the table, and Lin Ran went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.
After cleaning up, the time had already pointed to 7:50, and the three of them were sitting on the sofa waiting to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
The Chinese New Year's Eve activity that has remained unchanged in China has remained unchanged for all ages, even if the whole world has now united to form the Spirit Martial Alliance, this habit has not changed.
After all, the Lingwu Alliance is the leader of China, and with the establishment of the Lingwu Alliance, the world has gradually returned to peace, and more and more foreigners have also integrated into the festival habits of China.
They will eat rice dumplings at Dragon Boat Festival, gather together as a family for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, and watch the Spring Festival Gala together after Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
"Listeners and viewers all over the world!"
"This is the Lingwu Alliance Central Radio and Television Station!"
"Another Year of the Pig is on schedule. ”
"The 100th Spring Festival Gala of the New Calendar will accompany you for the New Year!"
With the familiar opening remarks, the Spring Festival Gala began.
In fact, Lin Ran doesn't like to watch the Spring Festival Gala, even if the Spring Festival Gala in this world is much more exciting than his original world because it integrates world culture, but he doesn't like it much, at most he will think that some programs are good.
What he likes is just the atmosphere where the family gathers together and snuggles up on a sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
He didn't have it before, but now he has.
He looked at his two mascots, and Xiao Jin who was coiled on the carpet in front of the sofa, showed a warm smile, and fell lightly on the sofa, the whole person was very lazy.
Han Yan looked at Lin Ran lying on the sofa, looked at his warm and soft smile, and a smile appeared on his face, so she leaned on him gently.
When Tang Xin saw this, how to do it, he also leaned on the other side of Lin Ran, and Lin Ran passively completed the achievement of hugging left and right.
Looking at his two mascots, Lin Ran was a little nervous, but more than that, he didn't want to move......
I was full just now, and now I want to watch the Spring Festival Gala motionless on the sofa.
"Forget it, so be it, I don't want to move at all~"
There was a male star singing in the Spring Festival Gala, Lin Ran was not interested in this kind of little fresh meat that was not as handsome as himself, he looked at the two mascots and was also not interested, and said, "Let's chat." ”
Tang Xin: "What are you talking about?"
This question stumped him, and he Lin Ran asked himself if he was not a character who was good at chatting.
Han Yan spoke: "Let's talk about when we were young." ”
Lin Ran's eyes lit up, "This is okay. 」
He wanted to know what these two big guys looked like when they were young, and see if they were geniuses since they were children.
He was the first to speak, "I was an ordinary child when I was a child, except for when I was seven years old, my father disappeared on a mission, it was still very ordinary, and then it may be that my father had an accident and my mother was not in a good mood, she had cancer." ”
Lin Ran paused at this time, the memories of the two worlds are slightly different, for example, in the previous life, his father disappeared at the age of five, and in this life he was seven years old, and there was no mission in the previous life.
He subconsciously said what he was saying was his life experience in this life.
It may be the fusion of the souls of the two worlds, Lin Ran sometimes feels that Han Yan is very familiar, since he has come to this world to replace this Lin Ran, then part of his life is for him.
"Cancer, you know, ordinary people have advanced cancer, even high-grade pills are useless, and thanks to the large amount of compensation for my father's disappearance, my mother can stay with me for a long time. ”
"What she is most worried about is that I can't live well in this world alone, and she has been teaching me to be a good person, while calling me all kinds of housework and dishes, and I learned these dishes from her. ”
"To be honest, I miss her ......"
Although Han Yan knew this, she still felt very sorry for this big boy and gently held Lin Ran's hand.
Tang Xin also followed and held the other one, and then spoke: "My father also disappeared when I was seven years old, he disappeared during an exploration of the immortal and demon ruins invited by a good friend, after my father disappeared, my mother was even busier, she used to accompany me often, but ......"
"Later, she sent me to study in Shancheng, which is my father's hometown, and there was an aunt who took care of me at first, and when I went to high school, my aunt was gone, and I only had money in my bank card that could not be used, but I didn't need these ......"
Lin Ran held Tang Xin's hand tightly, trying to give her some comfort, he was in his twenties mentally, and he was still better than them.
Han Yan sighed in her heart, "It's all poor children. 」
But why not?
"My parents died when I was very young, leaving only a lot of inheritance, I grew up in the care of my grandfather, who also passed away last year......"
What Han Yan said was very simple, but Lin Ran and both of them knew the feeling of not having parents.
For the first time, the three of them leaned together and were so close.
The Spring Festival Gala continued to play, all kinds of songs, dances, sketches and even martial arts were taking turns, and the three of them tacitly chatted about other topics, and the atmosphere finally became happy.
Knock knock!
The midnight bell rang, and fireworks began to bang outside the window, and Lin Ran moved to the window.
Han Yan also followed.
Watching the fireworks bloom and dissipate is like the beginning and end of life.
Raindrops falling from dark clouds is its birth, touching the earth is its death, and in the middle is its life, and fireworks are similar.
Lin Ran looked at the person standing next to him, and a smile appeared on his face?
"And what about my life?"
Han Yan gently took his hand and told him the answer in her heart.
"It doesn't matter how much you have in your life, what matters is that you and me are with you in this life. 」
The two looked at each other and smiled.
When he returned to the sofa, Tang Xin had already fallen asleep, and Lin Ran was a little helpless.
"Looks like she won't be able to go back today. 」
He went back to the room and took out a quilt from the cupboard, gently arranged her body, and covered it with the quilt.
"Let her sleep here today. 」
Tang Xin rubbed the success!
