…………

The next day, on the morning of the Spring Festival, Zhou Chao's family of three, together with Lala and Charlotte, stopped a taxi at the entrance of the community and rushed to their hometown in the countryside on the outskirts of the city.

More than forty minutes later, the car stopped next to a large house surrounded by a large wooden fence.

The house is the kind of traditional rural big tile house, sitting in the north and back to the south, back to the mountain, there is a small garden in front of the house and behind the house, but it is not big, it is about one acre, and it is not small to the farmland that belongs to other people's families around, and it is a large piece of bare land. There is a small river running through the village not far away, but the river has dried up a few years ago, and now all that is left is the black mud damp with snow and the garbage and a little sewage that has come out of nowhere.

Zhou Chao paid for the car, got out of the car with his family, Lala, and Charlotte, and walked into the yard and into the house on the frozen ground and path.

The first thing that catches your eye is a dimly lit kitchen, in which a dim old black lady is busy.

"Grandma." Zhou Chao shouted.

"When will you be back?" The old lady stopped what she was doing, looked at the Zhou Chao family who kept walking into the house, and said with a smile.

"I came back yesterday." Zhou Chao replied. Then he turned around and carried the things he had bought into the East House next to him, and then an old man with a gray head but strong spirits and a ruddy and healthy face appeared in everyone's sight.

"Grandpa."

"Dad."

Zhou Chao and Zhou Chao's father shouted one after another.

"I'm back." The old man sat on the chair and didn't move, and said lightly.

"Dad, this is the wine that Dacheng bought for you, and I brought it back from abroad." At this time, Zhou Jianguo stepped forward, put a bottle of red wine and two bottles of white wine in his hand on the desk next to the old man and said with a smile.

Hearing that the eldest grandson had bought him good wine, the old man Yile reached out and took the wine bottle and looked at it. Of course, I'm not looking for anything, but I just want to see what foreign wine looks like.

"It's expensive." After a moment, the old man put down the wine bottle and asked.

"It's okay, it's not expensive." Zhou Chao said vaguely. He didn't dare to tell the truth, and tell the value of the wine, although the old man would not say anything, but he would definitely not be like now, but he would definitely not wait to taste it, but would be stuffed into the cabinet and stored as an old wine.

Sure enough, the old man didn't say anything more, looked up at the others, and then paused, with an inexplicable look on his face.

"Grandpa, this is Lala, this is Charlotte, a friend I met when I was in the United States, because I want to experience the Chinese New Year, so I came back from the United States with me this time to celebrate the New Year with us." Zhou Chao, who noticed the old man's expression, hurriedly said.

"Hello, grandpa." Lara and Charlotte shouted together.

"Okay, okay." The old man who came back to his senses hurriedly responded, "Go to the kang, it's warm on the kang." ”

Zhou Chao smiled, pulled Lala and Charlotte on the kang. Zhou's father and Zhou's mother are too, and then while watching the idol drama on TV that I don't know where to shoot, I chatted casually.

However, since it was said that it was to bring two people to experience the Chinese New Year, it was naturally impossible to just sit in the house, so after staying for half an hour, Zhou Chao left the old man's house with Lala and Charlotte, wandered around the village, and stopped by a familiar relative's house.

In this process, Lala and Charlotte, who are foreigners, are naturally surrounded by the villagers, and in the same way, Zhou Chao, who brought back a foreign girl, was not less interrogated by relatives and brothers, asking about the relationship with Lala and Charlotte, which made Zhou Chao feel a headache and helplessness.

Fortunately, now is not like the early years, the freshness of foreigners is not so enthusiastic, so after the initial excitement, everyone will be interested in their own dispersion, three, three, five or five gathered into a pile, playing mahjong and poker during the daytime.

"Zhou Chao, your relatives are so kind." After the crowd dispersed, Lala turned her head to look at Zhou Chao and smiled.

"It's enthusiastic enough, but it seems that the enthusiasm is a little too much, and it scares me a lot." Charlotte, who is not good at Chinese, said in English with a look of palpitation.

"Hehe......" Zhou Chao could say something, so he had to laugh dryly and didn't speak.

Then the three of them left the house again, found an open space around which there were no grass stomps and bud rice poles (gaI), took out all kinds of firecrackers they had bought in the city, and put them in the open space.

"Ding! Boom! ”

"Woo Yo...... Syllable! ”

"Crackling...... Crackling......"

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, ......bang,

In just a few moments, the ground was made black and red, covered with fragments of firecrackers. At the same time, the pale white smoke and dust filled the air, emitting a stream of gunpowder smoke.

"Haha, it's so interesting, it's so interesting, is there still Zhou Chao? I'm still going to play. Lala said excitedly.

"It's really fun, Zhou Chao, give me another second lift." Charlotte followed suit.

"Yes, yes, yes, good." Zhou Chao was like a logistics support officer, while taking out a cannon from the space bracelet and handing it to the two, he said helplessly. There's no way, who made him past the age when he likes to play with guns, and he has long lost the passion to buy guns with all his pocket money.

After a few more hours, it got dark.

Zhou Chao was already a little crazy, and seeing that Lala and Charlotte, who were about to degenerate into bear children, led the two back to the old man's house. Just in time for the scene of a family making dumplings.

"Zhou Chao, what are they doing, Auntie?" Lara asked curiously.

"Make dumplings." Zhou Chao said with a smile.

"Making dumplings?" Lara and Charlotte wondered.

"Come back, let's go to the kang, you can eat dumplings in two hours." Seeing the three of them enter the house, the old lady opened her mouth to greet her.

"Can I help you with the pack?" Lala walked to the panel, looked at Zhou's father and mother who were busy and asked.

"What's not to do with that." The old lady laughed.

"Great. Grandma quickly teach me how to wrap. Lara said happily.

"Go wash your hands first." Zhou Chao reminded.

"Oh." Hearing this, Lara immediately ran into the hallway, washed her hands with the water from the basin, dried them with a towel, and returned to the house. The old lady smiled, handed a piece of dough to Lala, and then showed Lala how to wrap dumplings.

"Look, put the trap in the skin like this, then pinch the edges, the seams, and pinch hard."

Immediately, a large dumpling with a flower fold appeared in the eyes of Lara and the equally curious Charlotte.

"Wow. Grandma is amazing. Lara shouted. Then I did the same and made a dumpling.

"Ah, it's cracked." Lara shouted.

"There are more traps, less of them." Wang Xiuying pointed.

"Oh." Lala tried again, but the result was still the same, and the side opened again.

"I want to pinch ...... like this," Wang Xiuying demonstrated.

Finally, by the third time, Lala's dumplings were made, but compared with other people's dumplings, Lala's dumplings were like unfed children, with a shriveled stomach and a bad look.

"Yes, keep up the good work." Zhou Jianguo, who was chasing dumpling skins, said with a smile.

"Hey, hey." Cheera smiled happily and continued to struggle. Then Charlotte, who was watching from the sidelines, was not far behind, washed her hands and joined the army of dumplings.

Not to mention, Charlotte is Charlotte, a person with a little talent for cooking, after only trying four or five, her dumplings are decently wrapped, no different from others.

"Charlotte is amazing." Lala, who was still struggling with the shape, pouted. But then Lala cheered up again, and she screamed with the dumplings without wrapping the dumplings.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao on the side was also so happy, he smiled, sat on the kang, and watched the Spring Festival Gala on TV boringly. It's not that he wants to watch this, but at this time, there is nothing else to watch in the country except this, and there is no channel you can change if you want to, as for the Internet...... Well, when he returned to his hometown, Zhou Chao put away the neural connection device, so in addition to surfing the Internet on his mobile phone, his eyes were also dark.

In this way, in the laughter and laughter created by Lala, the sound of programs on TV, and the crisp sound of firecrackers from time to time outside, the time came to 11 o'clock in the evening, and several plates of dumplings were put on the table.

"Eat." The old man picked up his chopsticks and said.

The others didn't hesitate, and immediately picked up the dumplings and enjoyed them.

"Wow, it's delicious!" Lara said happily.

"Yes, yes." Charlotte, who still had a bite in the middle and didn't swallow, also nodded in agreement.

"Eat more if it's delicious." The old lady picked up a few dumplings and put them in the middle of the small plate in front of Lara and Charlotte.

"Thank you, grandma." "Thank you." The two thanked each other.

Then the clock ticked and it was 12 o'clock.

"Happy New Year, Grandpa." In the sound of 'Happy New Year' shouted by the hosts of the Spring Festival Gala on TV, Zhou Chao turned his head and said to the old man. The old man smiled, very happy.

"Happy New Year Grandma." Then, Zhou Chao said to the old lady again.

"Hehe, okay." The old lady said happily, then stood up, walked to the side of the clothes hanger, took out a hundred-yuan bill from the old man's pocket, and handed it to Zhou Chao, "Give." ”

"Grandma, don't worry about it, how old am I, and I still get New Year's money." Zhou Chao said embarrassedly.

"Take it." The old lady stuffed the money into Zhou Chao's hand and said.

"Thank you, milk." Zhou Chao said helplessly, and cheekily picked up a hundred yuan.

"Happy New Year to grandparents." At this time, the New Year's greetings of Lara and Charlotte also sounded. This time, the old lady was even more straightforward, directly picked up the old man's clothes from the hanger, took out all the money, took out two red tickets and handed them to Lara and Charlotte.

"Thank you, grandma." I didn't know what this meant, but I knew that the money could be collected - at least the two of Zhou Chao who had done a demonstration thanked them, took the money, and put it in their pockets.
