Chinese New Year's Eve is actually a day for Kou Xi to eat with the Huo family. Other than that, there's really nothing special.

In the morning, Kou Xi got up as early as usual, and after she lit the stove and heated the house. I took a little dough out of the flour bag in the kitchen, mixed the paste, picked up the couplet and walked out the door. First pasted a couplet on the door frame, and then pasted a big blessing character in the middle.

Back in the room, she tore off the sun-dried 'Xi' on the window and replaced it with an equal-sized blessing character. After thinking about it, he hung a lantern on the window, and waited until it was dark to plug in the lantern and keep it on overnight.

After packing it up, Kou Xi changed into a black sweater and put on a knee-length apron of her own making. Put the key in his house in his apron pocket and go to the next door slowly.

Li Cuilian and Huo Dagui had already gotten up, although the kang in the house had been cleaned up. But I don't know why, today's kang is not very good. Puffs of smoke came out of the edge of the kang, and Kou Xi couldn't help but open the door and let out the choking smell.

"The second one, hurry up!" Li Cuilian lit the stove and saw Kou Xi standing in the house with a water scoop watering the flowers. Seeing that the kang mat was as clean as new, the cabinet was neatly cleaned up, and the melon seeds and peanut skins on the ground were also swept clean. I couldn't find anything wrong with Kou Xi for a while, and I couldn't help but lose my temper thinking about the lazy guy in the hut.

Gao Liman dressed the child, and pushed Huo Lu here: "Hurry up, the old lady is in a hurry." ”

Huo Lu rolled over and muttered a sentence and fell asleep again, Gao Li gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "I didn't go home until the middle of the night last night, and I didn't die in the morning." I know how to play money, and when you give me a hundred yuan a month to spend!"

She put Huo Tianyi on the ground and patted his buttocks: "Let's go play!" put on her daughter Tianfeng's clothes again, touched her already chapped and red little face, thought about it, and hugged her daughter to find Kou Xi.

"Sister-in-law!" Gao Liman pulled her hair in a bun at will, walked up to Kou Xi and asked her to look at her daughter Tianfeng's face: "Look at her face, is it too ugly." ”

"You have to wipe something!" Kou Xi touched Tianfeng's face distressedly, it was obviously caused by the dryness and cold.

"The clam oil is gone, have you lent me to wipe it for the child!" Gao Liman stared at Kou Xi with a pair of eyes, afraid that she would say 'no'.

That's it, Kou Xi doesn't care about Gao Liman for the sake of the child. She feels sorry for these two children in her heart, and if she is their mother, she will do her best to care for their growth.

"Follow me!" Kou Xi led Gao Liman back to his room and took out a new 'Thousand Purple Thousand Reds' from the drawer.

"I haven't opened this balm yet, you can wipe the child's face!" Kou Xi looked at Tianfeng distressedly, seeing that her eyes were attracted by something on the table. Kou Xi glanced back, and it turned out that he had taken a fancy to the jar of malt milk essence on his camphor wood box.

She took a glass from the tray and flipped it over, and took the jar of malt cream. Scoop two spoonfuls from the inside and put them in a cup, pour boiling water into them, and stir them with a small spoon. Open the cabinet under the TV cabinet and take out a packet of peach crisps.

said to Tianfeng: "It's almost ten o'clock to eat, grandma cooks noodles to eat today." In the afternoon, you start to have delicious food, so you have to pad your stomach first. ”

Gao Liman He had been so extravagant to his children, eating peach crisp and drinking malt milk essence in the morning, but it was really the New Year.

"Alright, alright!" Gao Liman stopped his daughter: "Leave a little for your little brother!"

"What are you keeping!" Kou Xi frowned and blurted out accusations: "As soon as you want to eat it in the morning, you will make another cup of malt milk essence." I'm not without this!"

"Then how embarrassed are we!" Gao Liman licked his lips and was a little stupid: "These things are quite expensive!"

"As long as you have the heart to make money, you can't afford to eat. The child has big cakes and pickles in the morning, potatoes and radishes in the evening, can he grow taller if his nutrition can't keep up?" Kou Xi didn't want to educate others, but when he saw Gao Liman's attitude that I was poor, I should be poor, and I was reasonable, he was angry.

"Oh, we don't have your skills!" Gao Liman pouted, as if Kou Xi was standing and talking without backache.

Kou Xi didn't bother to pay attention to her, it would be strange if she didn't know who this person she was after decades of getting along.

"Mom!" Tianyi ran in and saw Tianfeng standing by the kang and sipping something carefully. After a few steps forward, he grabbed his hand, raised his head and drank the malt milk essence.

Tianfeng should have drunk it a long time ago, but she was reluctant to drink it slowly at this time when she usually drank less.

Who said that two-year-old children are not sensible, Tianfeng, a child who is already very sensitive. When he saw that his beloved things were gone, he raised his head and cried.

"You kid, what are you robbing your sister of!" Gao Liman said this, but he didn't do anything to his son. Tianyi was confident: "You guys are stealing food here, don't let me see it!"

"If you want to eat, can the eldest lady not give it to you? As for stealing your sister's things? A glass of malt milk essence is also worth making a fuss about, you are really promising." Besides, your sister's things, she didn't allow the adults and didn't allow it, why did you rob her?" Kou Xi was very annoyed, she found that Tianyi's willfulness had reached the point of intolerability.

"Oh, what do you say he is doing during the New Year!" Seeing his son being reprimanded, Gao Liman's face couldn't hold back.

"Come to Tianfeng!" Kou Xi picked up the empty cup and said to Tianfeng: "Auntie will give you another cup!"

Huo Tianyi's eyes lit up, and he took a step forward: "What about me? What about me?"

Kou Xi looked at Huo Tianyi condescendingly: "You don't behave well, you don't look like a brother at all, you're not a good boy, why should I give it to you?"

Huo Tianyi was dumbfounded, and after being silent for a few seconds, he grinned and cried. The crying was not satisfactory, and he lay on the ground and rolled around. Kou Xi himself was frightened, he didn't expect Huo Tianyi to react so violently.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm really scared of you!" Although he knew in his heart that he would compromise as soon as he made trouble, this was aiding and abetting. But today is Chinese New Year's Eve, provoking a child to cry and grab the ground, everyone's heart is not good-looking.

Huo Tian got up from the ground and made a triumphant grimace at his sister. I comfortably drank a glass of malt milk essence and ate two pieces of peach crisp and a cake before stopping.

The house was bustling when I heard the sound of a 'knock knock' from the window. Everyone looked over, it was Song Jianguo knocking on the window, and shouted at the people inside: "It's time to eat, come out!"

"Hey, hey, my feelings have just risen!" Gao Liman saw that the two children ate peach crisp and drank malt milk essence, and his mood also improved. Now she likes Kou Xi, a cold-faced and hot-hearted person, much more than Zhang Yao, a sweet-mouthed and bitter-hearted woman.

She said in a weird manner: "In the end, it's a daughter, if you don't want to get up, you can't get up." People like us can't get up even a minute late. ”
