163: Year

It's the New Year, although the brothers and sisters are still in the filial piety period, and they can't be red at home, and they can't be too big, but they still have to prepare some basic things.

What's more, there is still an old mansion, and the parents are gone, so they have to take over those things.

Thinking about the New Year's gift prepared for the old mansion when the Wang family was still there, the two discussed it and decided to buy two catties of wine and buy snacks for Old Man Ding and them.

As for filial piety, they still have some difficulties now, and it is not too late for them to make up for it when the conditions are better in the future.

Speaking of which, when the family first separated, the filial piety that their family said was good, and it seems that only once in so many years has it really been given, and it was not long after that was taken out by the two elders.

It's really funny to say, and it's a little sad to go, and a family can't even get two hundred yuan.

Generally speaking, every family wants to eat fish during the New Year, and in previous years, the Ding family would go to the river to catch two fish even if the situation was bad, but this year I don't know what happened, Youyi caught one in the river for two days and couldn't catch one, not even a small fish.

Seeing such a situation, the brother and sister could only helplessly comfort each other.

Alas, there is no fish, and this year they are going to have a vegetarian year, and who made them not buy meat before.

Every year when the price of meat rises during the two days of the Chinese New Year, lean meat can be bought for 123 yuan on weekdays, but now it may not be bought for 14 or 5 yuan, and you have to pay it back as soon as possible.

Just when the siblings thought they were going to celebrate the New Year, Ah Yong brought them a fish and a bowl of chicken with soup and meat.

The brother and sister didn't want to accept it, but Ah Yong just stuffed the things into their hands and left, and in the end they could only accept it.

With fish and meat, the two said in their hearts that they were not happy, it was fake, Xin'er was not very good at making fish, and they added chili pepper and pickles and ginger to cook in a pot.

As for the bowl of chicken, they also put it in a crockpot, added some water, and some mushrooms dried in the summer to it and stewed it again.

The New Year's dinner was eaten very early, and before eating, Xin'er took two large bowls from home, and packed a bowl of boiled fish and chicken to the old house.

On the way to deliver something, I happened to meet Youcheng who sent things from the old house, and Youcheng carried a basket, and the basket was also filled with dishes for their brothers and sisters.

Originally, before the New Year, the old mansion let their brothers and sisters go to the old house to celebrate the New Year together, but the two refused, they can't go to the old house for the New Year because their family is no longer an adult, they can also support a family, this is still the first year.

Old man Ding didn't force them, but asked Zhang to cook more during the Chinese New Year and sent some to them.

"Brother Cheng, are you going to my house?"

Xin'er met Youcheng not far from Feng's house, and knew that he was going to their house when he was carrying things, but he still asked.

"Well, Grandpa and Grandma asked me to deliver something to you, what's the matter, are you going to the old mansion?"

Youcheng pointed to the basket in his hand.

"That's right, that's right, you can go back with me first, and bring things back by the way in a while."

Xin'er didn't plan to go to the old house anymore, and it saved a while.

When he got home, Youcheng brought the bowls in the basket one by one, and Youcheng brought three bowls, a bowl of meat, a bowl of chicken, and a bowl of fish soup.

This year, the old house didn't catch a few fish, so he caught two small fish that could make a bowl of soup, otherwise they were all sent to them.

Youcheng picked up the bowl, Xin'er picked up the bowl in it, and said while picking it up: "Brother Youcheng, this is our intention, originally I sent it over, but it happened that you came, so please help me bring it over." ”

"Okay."

Youcheng didn't say much, and agreed directly.

"I'm sorry for you."

"What's this, by the way."

Youcheng didn't take this matter to heart.

"Then I'll trouble you, grandpa, they and uncle, they said, this year is indeed a little inconvenient, we must go to spend with the two of them next year."

Xin'er knew that they didn't go to the old house to celebrate the New Year together this year, and the old man Ding had a big opinion, and he was not very happy because he didn't agree to spend the New Year with them before, and she also understood it very well this time.

It's just that this year is the first year after Wang's death, and it has only been less than half a year, and their brother and sister are still in the filial piety period, although they may not care, but their brother and sister can't help but care, and now people don't say anything in the future, if there is anything in the future, it will not be very clear.

"Well, don't worry, I will definitely tell them well, and they will understand, as long as you go to the house more often."

"Brother Cheng, don't worry, we will definitely go to see them often, you must talk to them well."

Xin'er still has a lot of affection for the big family in the old house, and I'm afraid that they will think too much, and besides, their only relatives are them now.

"Okay, I know, don't worry, I'll definitely talk to them."

"Well, then thank you Brother Cheng."

"It's okay, then I'll go back first, and it's almost time to eat at home."

"Okay, we'll send you."

"No, I'll just go back by myself."

Although Youcheng refused, Xin'er was very righteous, and the two of them personally sent him out, and only returned home after watching him go away.

Since there was no need to deliver anything, the meal was also set, and the two were ready to start eating.

Sacrifice before eating, both brothers and sisters have been used to this over the years, especially righteousness.

After Erlin's death, before the death of the Wang family, the family sacrifices were made by Youyi every year, and he was familiar with them, and his heart was watching Youyi busy with his work.

"Alright, let's eat."

"yes, okay."

Xin'er went to pick up the food on the table to see if it was cold, and made sure that it was still hot, and then the two of them started.

Just when the brother and sister started to eat, Youcheng also carried things home.

"I'm back, let's eat."

The family was waiting for him alone, and Zhang hurriedly greeted him when he saw him coming back with a basket.

"Eh, here it is."

"Mother, this is what Xin'er asked me to bring back, I met her on the road, so I brought things back by the way."

Youcheng carried the basket into the hall and said to the Zhang family in the house.

Zhang was slightly stunned, and then stepped forward to take the contents of Youcheng's basket, and she was stunned when she saw the contents of the bowl, as if she didn't expect them to eat so well.

Zhang was only stunned for a moment, and quickly put the things on the table.

"What did you take?"

Old man Ding and the two elders were sitting in the hall, and they all heard the words of sincerity, and they asked only when they saw that Zhang had put things on the table.

"It's some fish and chicken." Zhang paused before speaking.
