As soon as winter comes, other people's vegetables are only Chinese cabbage and white radish, but the space in Jiang Xiaonian's hands is warm all year round, and there are all kinds of vegetables in it, and it is uninterrupted.

Because of these dishes that no one else has, the Qian family restaurant is still thriving, and it was not closed until two days before the Chinese New Year.

Jiang Xiaonian is also in these days, washing all the radishes at home and cutting them into sections, putting them in clay pots, and making pickled radishes, some of which are filled with chili peppers, and some of which are not put inside, can be placed in restaurants in the future, and noodles are eaten in the morning.

On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the taste of the year is stronger, and even poor families go to the town to weigh a little meat to reward the hard work of the year.

Everyone has a smile on their faces, one is to be glad that this year has been peaceful, and the other is to look forward to a better year ahead.

Zhou Huihui bought a fish at Wang Yuhu's house, and went to the town to buy a lot of New Year's goods, planning to have a lively New Year.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Furao lit a fire on the stove, and Jiang Xiaonian stood on a stool to prepare the dishes to be eaten in the evening, and she planned to cook this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner herself.

The pork bones that I got back from Zhu Changfei were being stewed over low heat, and there were already processed pig hearts and pig lungs on the cutting board, cut into thin slices.

Lightly fried in oil, stir-fried with garlic leaves and chili peppers, and the whole kitchen is filled with fragrance.

Since the last time I made boiled fish, the family missed this taste very much, and Zhou Huihui also went to Wang Yuhu's house to buy fish for the New Year.

After stir-frying several dishes, including fish, meat and eggs, this Chinese New Year's Eve meal can be described as hearty.

"Miss, look, it's snowing outside!" Fleur shouted excitedly.

In the past, she was the most afraid of snow, because it was very cold, and she was worried about whether she would be kicked out of the house by Widow Fan, and the feeling of sitting in the snow was like a cold thorn sticking into her bones.

But this year is different, she is wearing several clothes, warm and warm, she has eaten well in the past two months, not only has she grown taller, but also grown a lot of meat, and she is not as weak and afraid of cold as before.

Jiang Xiaonian smiled at her and said, "Go and prepare a small low table and put it on the kang, it's cold, let's go to the room to eat." ”

"Okay, I'll go!"

Since there was a kang on the kang, Jiang Xiaonian asked Jiang Mengliang to make a low table, which can usually be placed on the kang and put some snacks, or Zhou Huihui can place things and do needlework on the kang, and Jiang Wei can also sit on it and read a book.

After the meals were put on the table, the family sat down and sighed at the changes over the past year while eating, as if they were in a different world.

Thinking of this time last year, they were still not full of food and clothing, and they had a nest head with meat foam, they all thought it was a great thing, but they didn't expect that in just one year, they would be able to celebrate the New Year with big fish and meat.

"Dad, mother, try this fried lung slices made by your sister, it's super delicious."

Jiang Wei said as he picked up the vegetables and put them into his father's bowl.

Seeing this, Fu Hui put a piece of braised pork into Jiang Wei's bowl, lowered her head and said, "Childe, the braised pork made by Miss is also delicious, you can taste it." ”

Jiang Wei didn't think about it at all, and directly sandwiched the braised pork into Jiang Mengliang's bowl, and said, "I have already eaten a few pieces just now, and I am a little tired, my father loves to eat it, so let's eat it for my father." ”

Although Fleur didn't say anything, her face was full of disappointment.

Jiang Xiaonian looked at their appearance and almost laughed out loud, brother, this is a typical single person by strength, Fu Yuan's love for him is so obvious, he can't feel it at all.

Forget it, they are still young, and she, an old aunt, should not be nosy and let it be.

After eating, Fleur cleaned up the table and put snacks on it, including the cakes made by Jiang Xiaonian and other things bought from the town, but the most popular ones were the few persimmons left.

The Jiang family didn't have the habit of keeping the New Year before, mainly because it was too cold and it cost candles, so it was better to huddle up in the mattress and sleep early.

But this year is different, the kang is warm, and a little bit of heart, a family sits in a room, and does not feel cold at all.

When Zhou Huihui proposed to keep the New Year, everyone happily agreed, especially the three children, who were full of energy.

Jiang Wei sat on the kang and read by the candlelight, while Jiang Mengliang followed the reading and reading next to him, and occasionally if he didn't understand, Jiang Wei explained to him seriously, Jiang Mengliang didn't seem to be a parent, but became a good student.

Jiang Xiaonian and Fu Hui sat next to Zhou Huihui and learned embroidery seriously.

Fleur's talent is very high, after Zhou Huihui has simply taught her, she can learn to embroider a simple pattern, but Jiang Xiaonian is not born with embroidery materials, and the embroidered things are crooked, like a caterpillar.

"Miss, are you embroidering a small white flower that usually makes tea?"

The corners of Jiang Xiaonian's mouth twitched, and he looked at the pattern in his hand seriously and said, "Isn't this like a lotus?" ”

Fleur blinked, and after carefully examining it, she shook her head seriously and said, "No." ”

Jiang Xiaonian glared at her: "You don't know how to coax me?" Hmph, even if it's not like it, I'm going to embroider it and give it to you as a sachet, you have to wear it on your body every day, you can't take it off. ”

"Miss, you gave it to me?" Fleur's eyes lit up.

The piece of cloth in Jiang Xiaonian's hand was the leftover material left over from the silk in Jiang Li's hand to make a small vest for Jiang Xiaonian and Jiang Wei when she took Jiang Li's gift in return.

"Miss, looking at it like this, it really looks like a lotus."

Jiang Xiaonian couldn't help laughing, nodded her forehead and said, "You ghost elf, won't your conscience hurt?" ”

Fleur was used to her talking like this, clutching her chest and saying, "It doesn't hurt, it's okay." ”

Everyone ushered in the new year with laughter, and even when they fell asleep, they were smiling.

Early the next morning, the courtyard door of Jiang's house was knocked on by a group of laughing children.

"Happy New Year, uncle and aunt!"

Although the people in Wangjia Village are far away, there is no human affection to move around, most of them are running for survival, and they have no energy to maintain interpersonal relationships, but as long as the Chinese New Year is over, the children in the village will come in groups to pay New Year's greetings and give the owner's family an auspicious fortune.

Those with slightly better conditions will give them a little New Year's money, and those with poor conditions will also have flour cakes to be given a little by one.

Of course, like the poor who can't open the pot, the adults will also tell the children not to go to his house, so as not to embarrass both parties.

Everyone has seen the changes in the Jiang family this year, and the children are particularly enthusiastic, and they say "Happy New Year" one after another.

Zhou Huihui was also very happy, gave each of them a penny, and took out the small cakes specially made in the morning, one for each person, the children were very happy, and they jumped down to the house.
