Chapter 547: Celebrating the New Year
After a brief meal at noon, Jiang Nan immediately began to get busy.
Stir-fry the chicken and duck first.
Drop the peeled chicken fat in the pot, add the ginger slices to the fried oil, fry the ginger flavor, pour the chicken down, fry the fragrance and pour cooking wine, then put in boiling water, wait for the water to boil again and put it in the aluminum pot to stew on the charcoal stove, and then fry the duck.
At this time, almost all the chickens and ducks are raised by the countrymen themselves, and they are all local products, so they don't have to be fished again, but they are not so fragrant after fishing, and they are the best to fry and stew them directly.
Considering that Gu Xiancheng can only eat light, he doesn't put salt when stewing, and when the stew is cooked, first pack a part, skim the oil, and then put a very small amount of salt to adjust a little taste, and the rest of the normal seasoning is fine.
Then stir-fry the pork knuckles and stew them.
The smell of meat fills the kitchen.
"Jiang Nan is really capable!" Several old men praised while roasting the fire.
"Not really!" Xiao Zhengde is the most proud.
Gu Xiancheng also nodded again and again, very satisfied.
Yuanyuan swallowed her saliva on the side, and kept saying, "It's so fragrant, it's so fragrant!" ”
In the past, she had not had a good life with her stepmother, and she couldn't eat meat twice a year, but this year she followed Aunt Yang and them, although her life was much better, but the old man was still used to saving after all, and he didn't usually eat meat.
Jiang Nan's stewed meat is very fragrant, and he is really hungry.
After stewing the meat, Jiang Nan began to fry the fish again.
Xiao Jingheng also bought some shrimp and hairtail.
The material in the capital is relatively rich, and there are naturally more fresh things, and besides, they are not bad for money, and they pick everything well.
After cooking the dishes, Jiang Nan began to cook dumplings again, and dumplings were naturally indispensable for the New Year's reunion.
By the time all this was cooked, it was just over four o'clock, and it was not yet dark.
"This is the earliest Chinese New Year's Eve dinner I've ever had!" Luo Yuanpei said with a smile.
"That's Jiang Nan's ability!" Gu Xiancheng nodded.
"I can eat a good meal if I drag her blessing!" Ji Xianlin also nodded.
Needless to say, Xiao Zhengde's granddaughter is the best.
There were many people, Jiang Nan opened two tables, the elders sat at one table, and Yang Zhengang, Xiao Jingheng, and Xiao Jingzhong accompanied them.
Jiang Nan sat at a small table with Xiao Jingwen, Hua Muchen, Qi Lin, Jiang Xiaowu, Chang Huan, and Yuan Yuan.
"Senior brother, go and put the New Year's cannon, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner has begun!" Jiang Nan said to Qi Lin.
"Why me again?" Qi Lin grimaced.
"Those who can work hard!" Jiang Nan smiled, the others were all guests, Qi Lin was the most familiar and quite old.
Qi Lin went to the door and set off firecrackers, and everyone raised chopsticks together and began to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
A few old people can drink a little wine, Jiang Xiaowu and they will drink drinks, everyone chats and eats while drinking, and then the juniors come forward to toast the elders, saying auspicious words, all of them are elated.
Everyone had a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
After eating, Yang Zhengang helped clean up, Jiang Nan first tidied up the heating table, put on the New Year's goods, made tea, and let a few old people chat over the fire.
Chang Huan silently washed a lot of dishes, chopsticks and cups on the side, watching Jiang Nan and Yang Zhengang interact lovingly, happy and melancholy.
Jiang Nan hasn't bought a TV yet, so he doesn't have a TV to watch at night, but the phone is ringing non-stop, mostly to Xiao Zhengde.
Xiao Liming and his wife, Xiao Licheng and his wife all asked their old father how the New Year was good, and asked about their son's situation, Xiao Jingheng and Xiao Jingwen took turns to answer the phone, Xiao Yueru also called to ask if Jiang Nan was okay, and then Hua Muchen's family also called over.
However, Luo Yuanpei and Gu Xiancheng didn't know the phone number, so no one called, and besides, they only came here as guests temporarily, and it was not easy to tell others about the phone number here.
The phone finally stopped, Luo Yuanpei and Gu Xiancheng looked at Xiao Zhengde enviously, "It's still hello, the house is full of children and grandchildren!" ”
Xiao Zhengde's face was full of red light, but he was not too proud in front of the two bigwigs, but he just said in a low-key manner: "Didn't I get married early, I will have more children and grandchildren, haha!" ”
Jiang Nan also made a phone call to Jiang Caiping, gave her New Year's greetings, and talked to Hanhan for a while, Hanhan was envious of her in the capital, and said that she must go to her sister to play if she has the opportunity in the future.
After that, Xiao Jingheng and the others got together to play cards, and Jiang Nan prepared snacks and tea for them on the side.
A few old people went to sleep first when they were not in good spirits, Yang Zhengang came over, and Jiang Nan and Jiang Xiaowu were chatting.
"Sister, I plan to take the college entrance examination a year in advance!" Jiang Xiaowu said.
"In advance? Are you sure? Jiang Nan asked, but she knew that Jiang Xiaowu had an excellent memory, and if it was possible, he could do it earlier, but she was worried about his body. Now it seems that after a year of exercise, he is already in good health.
Jiang Xiaowu nodded, "It should be no problem, grandpa asked me to apply for the military academy!" ”
"Wow, as long as you are in good health, I also support you to enter the military academy!" Jiang Nan nodded, "Look at your brother-in-law, as well as his father, your grandfather, and me, they are all soldiers, and we are all happy if you join the army again!" ”
"Yes, I know!" Jiang Xiaowu nodded, in the year he lived in the compound of the military region, Jiang Xiaowu learned about the lives and ideals of many soldiers, and also wanted to be a useful soldier for the country.
Yang Zhengang also nodded, "It's okay to take the military academy, and if you come out, you'll be an officer!" ”
"If you have four years of college, what level will you come out?" Jiang Nan asked.
"Generally, it is at the deputy company level, which is much faster than joining the army from the grassroots level." Yang Zhengang said, "Study hard, don't live up to everyone's expectations!" ”
"Yes, brother-in-law, don't worry, I won't let you down." Jiang Xiaowu nodded.
"If you don't understand the military aspect, you can ask your brother-in-law, he has experience!" Jiang Nan said.
"Hmm!" Jiang Xiaowu nodded.
"He has an old man by his side, do you still need me?" Yang Zhengang laughed.
"Luo Lao is old after all, and besides, many of his situations at that time are different, and he may not understand some advanced tactics now." Jiang Nan said.
"That's right." Yang Zhengang nodded, "If there is anything professional, just ask me, you're welcome!" Yang Zhengang patted Jiang Xiaowu on the shoulder.
"Thank you, brother-in-law!" Jiang Xiaowu nodded.
Jiang Nan is very pleased, Jiang Xiaowu is a sensible child, and he will not look down on others like some people who have a powerful grandfather, in fact, these people will be his resources in the future, Luo Yuanpei can't guard him for a few years when he is old, if he misses these people, it will be his loss.
Fortunately, he is a good boy with a sense of proportion.
After playing for a while, Qi Lin and Ji Xianlin went back, they were next door, so it was convenient to go back to their own house.
Xiao Jingheng and the three of them also live in Jiang Nan's place, anyway, the room is enough to live, so they don't bother to run around.
At twelve o'clock, Yang Zhengang went to set off New Year's firecrackers, and everyone went back to sleep.
"Tired, hurry up and rest!" Jiang Nan made the bed and waited for him on the bed.
Yang Zhengang entered the room, closed the door, quickly took off his shoes, jacket and trousers, and got into bed.
As soon as he got on the bed and touched Jiang Nan, "Your hands and feet are so cold, put them on me and cover them!" ”
The two were lying opposite each other, Yang Zhengang held Jiang Nan's hand in his hand and rubbed it on his chest, where it was the warmest, locked her feet into his legs, warmed her with his body, hugged her tightly into his arms, kissed her lips, and snorted warmly in her ear, "I'll make you warm up right away!" ”
Jiang Nan's face flushed, "Be quiet, don't let Dad hear it!" ”
