As soon as the sky was bright, Zhou Xiaoyun was woken up by the sound of firecrackers. A small piece of cake was placed next to the pillow and had to be eaten before he spoke, which means that the opening cake is homophonic to "high opening".

After eating the soft and sweet cake in two bites, the sweetness lingered in the mouth for a long time. This is Zhou Xiaoyun's favorite New Year's food, but unfortunately it is only sold during the New Year, and I can't buy it if I usually want to. Moreover, the taste of the cake at this time is also very authentic, and the merchants are relatively rarely adulterated, unlike the cakes sold later, some of which have not even been steamed.

Zhou Xiaoyun put on the new cotton jacket and cotton pants that he had not worn once, and when he made it, Zhao Yuzhen specially made it a little bigger to keep it for the next year, and it was generally more fitting.

Zhou Xiaoyun deliberately went to look in the mirror, and in the mirror, he was one year older and seven years old, taller than himself half a year ago, and he was a little fatter and not so thin.

Zhou Xiaoyun neatly tied her hair into two braids with colored rubber bands, lined with a pink cotton jacket, her face was extraordinarily fair, her eyes were extraordinarily bright, no matter how she looked at it, she was a cute girl, so she went out satisfied.

"Happy New Year, Dad. Happy New Year, Mom. ”

Father Zhou and Zhao Yuzhen responded with a smile and let Zhou Xiaoyun have breakfast.

For breakfast, there are vegetable and meat dumplings called "Wanwanshun", and glutinous rice dumplings are called "ingots".

Zhou Xiaoyun didn't understand where these titles came from, anyway, it was always right to shout them.

When I ate the "ingot", I actually ate a dime coin, which was another unexpected surprise. As usual, this coin is pasted on the New Year's painting on the wall, and it can only be cut off and used after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and this corner belongs to Zhou Xiaoyun.

Eating coins is considered a good omen and good luck in the New Year. Zhao Yuzhen scalded four dime coins with boiling water early in the morning and wrapped them in big rice balls.

Father Zhou was the first to eat it, and he also smiled, and said that he would have financial luck this year.

Zhao Yuzhen also ate one, plus Zhou Xiaoyun ate this, and there was only one left with coins in the rice balls.

Dabao saw Zhou Xiaoyun sticking the sticky coin on the New Year's painting, his eyes were very red, and he shouted that he also wanted to eat a glutinous rice ball with a coin. In fact, Dabao never likes sweets, for a dime and the so-called good luck, this is also a huge sacrifice for Dabao.

When there was no trace of the coin in the stomach of the four rice balls, Dabao began to be anxious. Using chopsticks to clip the rice balls in the big bowl in half one by one, he finally got the coin at the bottom of the bowl as he wished, and he happily pasted the coin on the New Year's painting.

After Xiaobao and Erya had eaten, the four brothers and sisters began to go from house to house to pay New Year's greetings.

The first stop was the uncle's house, where the aunt grabbed a handful of sweet potato seeds, sugar and greasy fried noodles and fruits for the children. Zhou Xiaoyun politely took one or two meanings, but Dabao stuffed his pockets full.

The unexpected surprise was that the uncle gave a few children one yuan per person to press the New Year's money, and although Xiaobao was small, he also knew that money was a good thing and hurriedly took it and put it in his pocket.

Zhou Xiaoyun arrived at Xiaobao: "Don't say thank you uncle yet." ”

Xiaobao did as he was told, and the uncle praised the child for being sensible.

Erya was well learned, and said in a milky voice: "Thank you, uncle." It made the uncle and aunt laugh.

Dabao saw that his eyes had already shone when he had a New Year's money, and he muttered and rushed out with Zhou Zhihai to buy a foreign fire whip.

Zhou Xiaoyun didn't have time to stop it, so he saw that Dabao had disappeared without a trace, so he had to thank his uncle on behalf of Dabao.

came out of the uncle's house, and there was more Zhou Xiaoxia in the New Year's greeting team, and after leaving a few houses, the team became bigger and bigger. Walking around from the head of the village to the end of the village, when he saw people, he said "Happy New Year, Wishing you prosperity", and Zhou Xiaoyun's face was sour. For the Chinese New Year, you have to have a smiling face when you see people, and you can't do it if you don't smile!

More than an hour has passed after the New Year's greetings, and it is finally time to rest, Zhou Xiaoyun thought to himself.

Before she could finish thinking about it, Wang Jingjing, the fat girl, and Xiao Budian rushed over to find her again and dragged her to kick the shuttlecock. Zhou Xiaoyun smiled bitterly and asked, "Is it okay if I don't go?" ”

"Of course not!" Several people spoke in unison.

Zhou Xiaoyun had to cheer up and reluctantly followed.

The first day of the Lunar New Year was spent in New Year's greetings and playing, and Zhou Xiaoyun's legs were tired and weak at the end of the day. I couldn't wait for her to rest and come to her senses, and the next day I started to visit her relatives.

The characteristics of the Chinese New Year in Chinese are eating and drinking, eating at home, eating at relatives' houses, relatives coming to their own homes to eat, married girls returning to eat, bringing their mother's family to eat, and a family of brothers and sisters getting together to eat......

In short, in addition to eating or eating. If you go all over your relatives and eat them all, you will probably get more than ten years of the first month, and a year will pass in eating.

The second day of junior high school was the day when she returned to her parents' home, and Zhao Yuzhen, who rarely returned to her parents' home, took her husband and children back to her parents' home in another township.

Zhao Yuzhen's family has three sisters, and only one uncle is the fourth and has not yet married.

Zhao Yuzhen ranked third, and the two sisters above were also married, and they all dragged their families when they came back. A bunch of children chattering is so hilarious.

During the meal, the adults sit at a table and drink, and bring a few dishes to the small table for the children to eat together.

Erya was held by her mother on the big table, and the three brothers and sisters of Zhou Xiaoyun, the two children of the eldest aunt's family, and a pair of twins from the second aunt's family were eating around the small square table.

Xiaobao was a little anxious because he couldn't reach his favorite food, so Zhou Xiaoyun took a bowl and sandwiched some vegetables for Xiaobao to eat.

Zhao Yuzhen took a sneaky glance in a hurry, and was relieved to see that Zhou Xiaoyun took good care of Xiaobao, and went back to chat with the sisters.
