As the most important Spring Festival of the year, every descendant of Yan and Huang is very concerned. Compared with many people who stay in the city, they gradually feel that the taste of the New Year is getting weaker and weaker, while some traditions of the New Year in the countryside are still retained.

Villagers who used to work in the city have basically returned at times like the Spring Festival. When there are more people, the village naturally becomes much more lively. If you go out occasionally, you can always see some villagers that you don't usually see.

On the thirtieth day, Xu Haibao's father and son also began to forcibly paste Spring Festival couplets. As for the kitchen, it was handed over to Xu Qingya and her mother. The whole family mobilized to perform their duties and get busy for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Compared with last year, Xu Haibao's parents did not go back to the village for the Spring Festival, and the couplet in the old house was posted with the help of the third uncle. This year, they returned to the village for the New Year, and the two fathers and sons rarely relived the taste of the early years when the whole family mobilized together, and renovated the old house inside and out.

Similar to the Spring Festival customs in many places, the fishermen who basically do not use knives and do not kill on the first day of the new year will cook more meals on the thirtieth day. The rest of the New Year's Day is eaten again, and it is also auspicious to ask for a 'surplus every year'.

In addition to the meals eaten by his own family, he also had to prepare things to worship his ancestors on the 30th night. The old customs of these fishing villages are also very novel to Xu Haibao when they are revisited. And there are some rules, Xu's father did not forget to tell and teach Xu Haibao.

After all, some customs of the fishing village need to be passed on, and Xu Haibao is undoubtedly the pillar of the Xu family in the future!

Xu Haixing, who had just pasted the Spring Festival couplets and was busy with his own affairs, also walked into the courtyard with a smile and said, "Uncle, Brother Bao, you haven't pasted the Spring Festival couplets yet!

"Xingwa, have your Spring Festival couplets been pasted?"

"It's pasted! My mom's dinner is almost ready, and I'm getting busy just after lunch!"

My mother is the same, when the Spring Festival couplets are pasted, it's almost time to eat!"

"Okay, then you're busy, I'll come over to play after dinner!"

Although Xu Haibao proposed that the two families celebrate the New Year together, in the end, the third uncle decided to celebrate the New Year as a family of three. After all, Xu Haibao just returned from the army this year, and their family joined in for the New Year, which is somewhat inappropriate.

Xu Haixing, who was just about to leave, soon heard the sound of firecrackers in the village. Hearing this voice, Xu Haixing was also surprised and said: "Hold a grass, it's only less than four o'clock, who eats Chinese New Year's Eve dinner so early!"

"Who do you care? Hurry back, if you cook well, you are also ready to set off firecrackers! If you can't grab the first spring whip, you will be happy earlier than others! Dad, let's quickly take out the firecrackers and prepare to put them!"

For many people in fishing villages, it is also a tradition to rush to set off firecrackers in the Chinese New Year's Eve. Under normal circumstances, after the firecrackers, you start eating Chinese New Year's Eve. Many times, before it gets dark, many villagers finish their Chinese New Year's Eve meal.

At this time, many children in the village also began to beg for New Year's money. As for the adults, most of them don't stay at home, and they will take advantage of the time to visit the house and chat. Some people who love to play cards have also begun to gather their card friends to prepare for war.

With the sound of firecrackers for the first Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the fishing village also became lively, and the sound of firecrackers from time to time also made the whole village extremely lively. It's just that the night in the fishing village is quieter than in the city.

Even though the firecrackers are turned on the next day, they usually wait until dawn. After all, if you set off firecrackers too early, it will also affect the rest of the people. In this case, the village is quieter than the city.

At least for Xu Haibao, his memory of spending the New Year in the city is basically that he doesn't want to sleep at all for thirty nights. In the whole community and the city, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks from time to time makes people have no intention of sleeping.

"Dad, brother, the dishes are all cooked, it's time to cook!"

Xu Qingya, who rarely stayed in the kitchen to help today, seemed to know that the village had this custom of grabbing firecrackers. Seeing that the last dish was about to come out of the pot, he quickly put the dishes and chopsticks in place, and immediately informed his father that he could set off firecrackers.

Xu Liyan, who heard this, also smiled and said: "Okay, I know! Baowa, you can set off this year's firecrackers!"

"Okay! Ready to set off firecrackers! Happy New Year! Happy New Year!"

Take the prepared incense and light the firecracker that has been disassembled. After the sound of crackling horns, the whole yard began to be covered in smoke. And at this moment, Xu Haibao has also walked into his living room.

Although the smoke produced by firecrackers is somewhat choking. But throughout the year, there are not many times that fishermen set off firecrackers. It's rare to have such a festive day, and no one thinks there's anything wrong with setting off some firecrackers.

Although many cities are now implementing a policy of banning fireworks. But in Xu Haibao's view, setting off firecrackers on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve is a tradition, and it is almost impossible for any city to completely ban it.

As for polluting the air with firecrackers, in Xu Haibao's view, it doesn't have much impact. At least for the villagers living on Fulin Island, the smoke from the firecrackers dissipates in a few minutes.

And at this moment, Xu's mother, who walked out of the kitchen with the last dish, said with some surprise: "I still wanted to grab the first spring today, but I didn't expect this group of people in the village to be so early." These people don't eat lunch!"

"Mom, it's pretty early for our family! It's early enough for dinner!"

Laughing and comforting his mother, who had been busy all afternoon, Xu Haibao also poured the good wine he brought back from the provincial capital for his father. As for the mother, she still drinks warm rice wine, and her sister naturally drinks it.

After pouring wine for his parents, Xu Haibao also raised his glass with a smile and said, "Dad, Mom, I wish you a happy New Year in advance with this glass of wine." I hope that in the new year, you will still be safe and healthy. All these years, you have worked hard!"

"Well, let's have a toast as a family, and I wish our family's little days more and more prosperous!"

Xu Qingya, who joined the toasting routine, raised her glass even if she didn't drink. This kind of Spring Festival of family reunion also seems a little strange to Xu Qingya. After all, Xu Haibao was not there for the previous five Spring Festivals.

Although their parents are not too old, the Xu Haibao brothers and sisters do not have many memories of their grandparents. It can be said that the Spring Festival they remember most clearly is spent with their parents. And now, they are grown, but their parents are old.

The father, who was sitting on the throne with wine, was also very relieved: "Well, this glass of wine should be drunk, let's do it together!"

"That can be dry in one gulp, your small cup is only a few pieces, I am a bowl of rice wine! I'm free, you father and son did it!"

Looking at the rice wine that was about to be poured in the bowl, the mother interjected at the right time. I used to live in the city, and my mother rarely drank alcohol. But Xu Haibao and his father both know that his mother's alcohol consumption is actually good.

It's just that my mother basically doesn't drink liquor and beer, but likes to drink rice wine. And rice wine, for Jiangnan people, is also a relatively common wine. When he came back from the city this time, Xu Haibao still bought a lot of high-end rice wine.

After smiling and drinking a glass of banquet wine, looking at his son who poured wine for him again, Xu Liyan also said in a timely manner: "Baowa, you are twenty-five after the New Year, it's time to hurry up and do your life's work."

Since you want to be in love freely, then quickly find a partner to talk to first. Talk about it for a year or two, and get married when you get along. Get married and have a baby as soon as possible, your mother and I are still young, and I can help you take care of it for a few years. You have to remember this with confidence. ”

Without waiting for Xu Haibao to reply, Xu's mother also interjected in due course: "Baowa, what do you think of Azhu's girl? I heard Xiaoya say that that girl plans to go back to the city to find a job next year." Why don't you look everywhere first?"

"Mom, you can't see a girl, so you want to help your son introduce you, right? It's true that Ah Zhu is a good girl, but I really don't feel for her.

Don't mention this kind of thing, otherwise it will be embarrassing for the two families to meet in the future. I still say the same thing, I know that you are anxious for me, and I will try to find a daughter-in-law who will satisfy you. In this way, you can rest assured, right?"

Thinking of the experience of being urged to marry in his previous life, Xu Haibao really had a helplessness to ask Cangtian speechlessly. It can be said that in his previous life, he often ran outside and didn't dare to go home, and a big reason was because he was urged to get married.

Every time I go home, as soon as the rice bowl is served, my parents will worry about their marriage. When Xu Haibao turned thirty, his parents were annoyed and full of anger. But at that time, Xu Haibao went home less often.

Now that he is reliving his life, Xu Haibao really feels that love is good with fate. For these girls who are currently around him, Xu Haibao thinks they are all very good. But when he falls in love, many times he rushes to get married.

If you don't feel it, even if the two fall in love, I believe they won't be able to get together in the end. In this case, Xu Haibao didn't want to act rashly. At least he believes that it is easy to find a girlfriend, but it is a bit difficult to find a wife.

After all, the requirements for the former can be compromised, but the requirements for the latter cannot be compromised. But no matter what, after returning from a lifetime, Xu Haibao can already understand the anxiety of his parents. There is really a suitable marriage partner, Xu Haibao will also try to catch it!
