Chapter 476 Happy New Year
The old man is old, and the hot water bottle is a must-have, so he gave Na Baichuan one, and Na Baichuan boiled the hot water and filled the hot water bottle, and sent it to the room to be placed at the feet of Duoduo, generally as long as the feet are warm, the whole body will be warm.
Because there is a hot water bottle, the quilt is warm, and the flowers sleep very soundly, but after only sleeping for an hour, they are woken up by the sound of crackling firecrackers around them.
The so-called communicative whip refers to the firecrackers that explode at the moment of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, and they should be exploded on time at about 12 o'clock on the 30th day of the lunar calendar.
Immediately after that, the whips came and went, making people unable to sleep, but Duoduo listened to such a spectacular sound of firecrackers that she had never heard in her previous life, and her heart was inexplicably full of excitement, as if the new year would really have a good start.
She kept her eyes closed and listened to the continuous sound of firecrackers around her, and her heart was full of joy and peace.
The sound of firecrackers did not gradually end until six o'clock in the morning, which announced the end of the New Year's celebration.
Na Baichuan went upstairs and went into the room to sleep.
He got into the quilt, and Duoduo wrapped his arms around his neck and whispered in his ear, "Happy New Year." ”
Na Baichuan pecked her on the forehead and said, "Happy New Year." ”
We must all be happy in the new year.
The two of them squinted for a while, and they got up at eight o'clock, and the customs in Hubei are not allowed to be lazy on the morning of the first day of the new year, otherwise they will be lazy and have a cancer attack every year. (Actually, the specific reason, the author is not clear, and, I have to get up early in the morning to blow up a whip, and I don't make the reason.... That's the custom anyway)
After washing and dressing up, the old man walked out of the room, and the old man was already sitting in the living room in good spirits.
Duoduo hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea and served it, wishing the old man a happy New Year.
The old man happily took out a red envelope from his body and gave it to her.
Duoduo is a little messy in the wind, she is already married, and she still has red envelopes to receive?
The old man smiled and said: "You don't know, Baichuan has been young and old since he was a child, except for seeing his lively and cute appearance before he was ten years old, he is so stable after the age of ten that it is annoying, so I basically don't give him red envelopes during the New Year."
But you're different, bouncing like a little rabbit, it's like to see it, I've always wanted a child with a character like you, and now God sent you to me, let you be my child, of course I'm going to give you a red envelope for the New Year. ”
He glanced at Na Baichuan: "Don't stare at me, you don't have your share." ”
Na Baichuan smiled slightly: "I know that I don't fit my father's eyes, and I don't dare to want it." ”
Duoduo took the red envelope and opened it on the spot, and there were three hundred yuan in it, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and she felt a sense of joy that she had made it.
Na Baichuan also took out a red envelope from his body and gave it to Duoduo, and Duoduo asked in surprise: "What excuse did you find to give me a red envelope?" ”
"Cute pet, you are my cute pet." The corners of Na Baichuan's mouth are slightly hooked.
Duoduo took it over, and the cute pet was cute, and the person who got the red envelope for the New Year was happy.
Back then, in her previous life, in order to grab a little more QQ red envelopes, she added two large and small numbers to the group, a penny of true love red envelopes, and the password red envelopes of "I am your father", she was like a devil entering the village, and she did not let go of any of them, which shows how much Duoduo has a soft spot for red envelopes.
Duoduo hurriedly opened the red envelope given by Na Baichuan, yes, this young man is good, he actually wrapped 300 yuan!
Early in the morning, pies fell from the sky, and two pieces fell, and they had to hit Duoduo's head, Duoduo said that he was very happy!
Na Baichuan's father has been passed down for several generations, and there are no relatives in the family during the turbulent years, and some are also distant relatives, so it doesn't matter if they move around or not, so although the first day of the Lunar New Year is a day to pay New Year's greetings to the family, the old man's family of three is all at home for the first day of the new year.
According to the rules of Hubei, a family banquet should be held on the morning of the first day of the new year to welcome the arrival of the new year, but dumplings can also be made instead, mainly the thoroughfare of the nine provinces of Hubei, so the culture of the north and the south are all accepted, not only can make beautiful soup like Guangdong, but also make dumplings and buns like the north, but of course rice is still the staple food.
I haven't eaten dumplings for a long time, and Duoduo really wants to eat dumplings, so the family of three unanimously decided to make dumplings on the first day of the new year to celebrate the arrival of the new year.
Because there were no leeks, I decided to eat pork dumplings with green onions and shiitake mushrooms.
First the shiitake mushrooms are quickly softened with hot water, then a few green onions are washed, and then a piece of lean meat is chopped into minced meat.
After Na Baichuan made these preparations, Duoduo chopped the shiitake mushrooms, green onions, and ginger and stirred them together with the meat filling.
The whole family worked together, and an hour later, the hot dumplings were served on the table, and Duoduo ate a big bowl, and her stomach was swollen.
In order to eliminate food, she walked around the front and back yards, and saw that there were still a few golden oranges hanging on the treetops on the tall orange tree in the front yard, and she couldn't help but be full of relish, not knowing what oranges taste like in winter.
She shook Nabaichuan's arm and asked him to take it off for her to eat.
Na Baichuan didn't want any image, climbed up the tree three times and twice, and picked all the few remaining oranges for Duoduo.
Duoduo can't wait to peel one open and taste, oops, it's delicious, sweet and sour!
The old man saw that Duoduo loved to eat, so he found an opportunity to show off the new clothes that Duoduo made for him on his body, so he went to other neighbors to ask for it.
When the government sent the garden department to do greening, an orange tree was planted in the yard of each house, which meant auspiciousness.
This small western-style building is inhabited by professors and intellectuals of some age, and people are old and afraid of acid, so many people have no one to eat the oranges on the orange trees.
Of course, when the neighbors were surprised to learn that the old man's well-cut high-end coats and suits were specially made for him by his daughter-in-law, the kind of envious gaze that everyone showed made the old man extremely useful, and he even walked on his toes.
Duoduo happily sat at home and ate oranges, on the first day of the new year, a family of three spent so leisurely and warmly, and went to bed early at night, and it was hard to stay up late yesterday.
The next day he still got up at eight o'clock, and after breakfast, Na Baichuan wanted to bring flowers to his grandfather to greet the New Year.
Because she would meet Liu Man, Duoduo deliberately dressed up seriously, with a black turtleneck sweater inside, and a red tweed coat worn at a make-up wedding in the countryside.
Wuhan's winter is the coldest around New Year's Day, and when it really comes to February, the weather has a bit of spring, so it is not very cold.
Probably because Liu Man got the position of director of the military hospital she dreamed of, plus she understood that she could not break up Na Baichuan and Duoduo, plus her grandfather supported Duoduo, so she wisely chose to accept Duoduo, this time she didn't make it difficult, and gave her a red envelope of fifty yuan.
