73: Good year

The day soon came to the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, which was the Chinese New Year's Eve.

A few days after the Erlin family killed the pigs, the Yimu family also killed the pigs, and many families in the village were killing pigs one after another.

When the Yimu family killed the pigs, the Erlin family went to help, and when they went home, they also brought back a piece of fresh meat.

On the 28th, Wang cleaned the house thoroughly, and it was only a year since he moved in, and there was not much "mess", and after cleaning, Wang began to clean the clothes and utensils at home.

It took almost half a day to sweep and wash the things.

She also left some to wash tomorrow, leaving some bright colors, some red and green things, village customs, Chinese New Year's Eve, the yard to dry some red "color" clothes, sheets and quilts.

Twenty-nine, Chinese New Year's Eve.

Early in the morning, Wang washed some of the unwashed clothes left yesterday and quickly hung them on the bamboo poles in the courtyard, and then began to prepare what he was going to eat today.

This year is the first year that their family of four has spent alone, and they have told Lao Dingtou before that they are eating at home today.

For tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the Ding family has been busy since the morning, and only Xin'er has nothing to do.

After washing the clothes in the morning, Wang called Erlin to kill the chickens, three chickens in the family, kill one and there are two left, Wang is ready to wait for the spring to hold a nest of chicks, and the eggs at home have also begun to prepare.

It's cold, the chickens don't lay eggs much, and it takes at least a dozen eggs to hold a litter of chickens, and it has to be selected, and the preparation time for one or two months is still required.

After the chicken was killed and cleaned up, the Wang family stewed it, and added some angelica that I bought from the town last time, and the angelica stewed chicken was the most fragrant, and the Ding family loved to eat it.

In addition to Ji Erlin, he also prepared a fish, this fish was also bought, not big, more than a pound, and it has been raised at home for several days.

In addition, there is some pork, the bacon before has not been ready, this time I ate it from the Ichiki family last time, and it was smeared with some salt but it did not affect it.

In the afternoon, the chicken was stewed, and Xin'er came back from outside, smelling the aroma of meat in a room, and her heart was a little greedy, grinding her mother to scoop chicken nuggets and chicken for her, and she sat on the weir and ate it slowly.

After the chicken soup was stewed, Wang took a big bowl of soup and filled a bowl of soup and water for Erlin to send to the old house.

Originally, she wanted Xin'er to be very righteous and the two brothers go, but she filled the bowl too full, and it was a little hot, so Erlin was okay and let Erlin send it.

As time passed, Wang began to cook other dishes, such as stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, kimchi fish and the like.

At the end of the afternoon, the Ding family began to eat, and today they ate much earlier than usual.

Worship the ancestors before eating, and it didn't cause much trouble, so I simply sacrificed.

First of all, the dishes are placed on a table in the middle of the hall, and eight pairs of chopsticks are placed around it, with a little rice in them and four bowls of sake poured into them.

Then the family burned incense and paper on the incense table in the hall, invited the ancestors to come back for dinner to receive money, and kowtowed.

In addition, Erlin and Youyi also lit two sticks of incense and burned a few pieces of paper at the kitchen, pigsty, gate, chicken pen, and hall house.

After everything was done, the family moved the food and wine on the table, poured the rice back into the retort, and Erlin said that the family would eat happily.

The food was very good tonight, the family did not have a meal, and while talking, they ate the sumptuous dishes on the table, and waited until they were almost ready to eat before they went to eat the meal.

As for Xin'er and Youyi, they can't eat, just eating vegetables, they are both full.

Eat early, rest first, and then take a bath as a major event for the family.

During this time, the weather is cold, and the time interval between the family baths is also very long, let's say this month, until now, the family has only taken a bath once, this tomorrow is the New Year, and you can't welcome the New Year like this anymore.

Therefore, Wang had already boiled a large pot of water when he was ready, and when he was almost rested, he let them take a bath one by one.

Bathing Erlin made a big basin for the family, which is prepared for young hearts, that is, I am afraid that I will get sick when I take a bath, and adults wash it with a bucket of water to wash.

At this time, there is a custom of keeping the year, but there are not many people who can stick to it.

The Erlin family is also keeping the New Year, but the brother and sister have already fallen asleep before the child, leaving them husband and wife, and when the time comes, the husband and wife will go to sleep immediately.

On the first day of the New Year, I shouted at the Wang family to give them New Year's money, and Youyi also looked at them with a blank eye.

The Ding family is living a good life, and basically there is New Year's money every year, but it is just a little different, and more of them are one penny or two per person.

Wang and Erlin also prepared New Year's money, and also found red paper to wrap separately.

Seeing that the brother and sister looked at them and asked for New Year's money, the two of them each gave each of them a red envelope, and the brother and sister who received the red envelope instantly thanked them with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you, I wish you good health and all the best."

The words of blessing have been said meaningfully for several years, and they were immediately spoken, and the heart behind them was immediately on the street.

"Daddy and mom are healthy."

After speaking, the two couldn't wait to open the red envelope to see how much money was inside.

"Brother, I have four cents."

"Well, I also have four texts."

The brother and sister got together and muttered.

"Sister, why don't you give me the money to help you keep it, and my brother will buy you candy to eat in the future."

"I don't, I buy it myself."

"Otherwise, you give me two articles, and you can buy the remaining two articles yourself."

"But, I ......"

"Don't be, you see that if you give me two articles, you still have two articles, right?"

"Well, yes."

"So you can still buy candy to eat, right?"

"Hmm."

"So you can give me two articles."

"Oh, okay."

In this way, the four pennies that had just arrived suddenly lost two cents.

This time, the money in the two red envelopes of the Wang husband and wife is the same, each red envelope is two yuan, and the two of their brothers and sisters are exactly four yuan per person.

In addition to the New Year's money of the two brothers and sisters, there are still five or six left, which are for the children of the Yimu family, and he should come to the door to pay New Year's greetings in a while.

Today's Ding family is very good, eggs, glutinous rice balls.

After breakfast, the family carried the prepared things to the old house to pay New Year's greetings.

There are not many things for the New Year, just a large piece of meat, which is prepared when the pig is killed, a jar of wine is for the old Ding Tou to drink, two snacks for the family to eat, and there is also a tael of silver and 200 filial piety for the old couple of the Zheng family.

The pigs in the family were sold a few years ago, and the pigs of more than 200 catties were sold for more than two taels of silver, and there was money to pay back and filial piety.

The Ding family lives at the end of the village, the old house is in the middle of the village, and when I went to the old house all the way, I met a lot of people in the village, and I saw that they couldn't boast about so many things, and there were envy of this old person, of course, there were also some sour words in it, but Erlin They didn't care.
