didn't drive, the family talked and laughed and walked to Jiang Haitian's house.

"Bang Bang ......"

Along the way, firecrackers rang out from time to time.

When they arrived at the mountain, Jiang Haiyang and the others could also see whose house was setting off firecrackers.

"Chen Yuansheng's family is also reunited!"

"Brother Haicheng's family is reunited!"

"It's the year of the Hu family!"

"The Yang family is also reunited!"

“……”

Every time they see firecrackers, several people will say a few words.

The people who set off firecrackers in the dam will also greet Jiang Haiyang and his party warmly when they see them.

"Uncle Haiyang, you guys go to Brother Xiaoji's house for a reunion!"

"Xiaobai, come to my house for a bite!"

"Shanshan, come to my house to play when it's okay later."

"Uncle Haiyang, after the regiment, my family will fight Shao Husa."

"Uncle Ocean, Brother Xiaobai, the New Year is hot!"

“……”

Along the way, everyone responded to these greetings.

"The year is with you!"

"Rejoice and rejoice!"

"You're reunited so early!"

“……”

Anyway, it's all clichés, and everyone is used to it.

Not long after, I arrived at the door of Jiang Xiaoji's new house.

"Second grandfather, second grandmother, you are here!"

"Second uncle, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year, Second Aunt!"

"The third uncle is good, the third aunt is good!"

"Shanshan, Tingting, happy, let's let the mouse play!"

“……”

In the field, Jiang Xiong, Jiang Ying, Jiang Xian and Jiang Hui, four children, saw Jiang Haiyang and others and greeted each other.

"Xiongxiong, come, grandpa will give you New Year's money!"

"Yingying, it's yours!"

"Xiaoxian, come, your New Year's money!"

"Huihui, yours!"

“……”

Jiang Haiyang, Wang Xiuju, Jiang Xiaobai, Lin Jiayin, Jiang Xiaofeng and Luo Zhaodi, each have to give their four children New Year's money.

Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju are still a big unity given by each person.

Jiang Xiaobai and Lin Jiayin were also given 100 yuan.

Jiang Xiaofeng and Luo Zhaodi were the same, they also gave a hundred yuan.

Although it is a room apart, they are still relatives, not to mention that there are only four cousins and nieces, and now Jiang Xiaofeng and Luo Zhaodi are not short of a few hundred yuan, and the New Year's money given is the same.

Each of the four little guys got six red envelopes, and they were all big red envelopes, and they were all happy.

"Thank you, Second Grandpa!"

"Thank you, second grandma!"

"Thank you, Second Uncle!"

"Thank you, second aunt!"

“……”

At this time, Jiang Haitian and Jiang Haibo also walked out.

Jiang Haitian greeted: "You guys are here, come into the house and sit, it's going to be the New Year soon!" ”

They didn't give red envelopes in the first place.

Generally, people in the countryside have their own shrewdness, and they will look at the size of the red envelope given by the other party, and then give it.

Otherwise, if you give less, you won't be able to save face.

The adults went into the house, while the children stayed in the yard and continued to play.

After entering the house, everyone sat at the roasting table to roast the fire, Jiang Haitian was busy making smoke for Jiang Haitian, Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Xiaofeng, and Jiang Xiaofeng, who came early, used disposable plastic cups to make tea for everyone.

Jiang Xiaoji greeted with a smile: "Uncle, if you come, just sit down for a while, and I'll set off firecrackers." ”

He was holding a large firecracker, the size of a basin.

"Ten thousand words!"

Jiang Xiaofeng saw the firecrackers that Jiang Xiaoji was hugging, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaoji, you can do it this year, you can buy it all with 10,000 words." ”

The so-called 10,000-word prefix is a 10,000-ring firecracker.

Jiang Xiaoji said with a smile: "In the first reunion year of moving to a new house, we set off a long firecracker. ”

As he was talking, Jiang Xiaozhou also hugged a plate of 10,000 words.

This is a double cannon in unison, even if a hexagram firecracker is interrupted in the process of setting off firecrackers, there is also a hexagram that is blown up, and the one that has not exploded will not be affected in time.

Of course, there's another layer of meaning here.

The reunion year is mainly based on the three brothers Jiang Haitian, Jiang Haiyang and Jiang Haibo, and it is just right for the three brothers to have breakfast, lunch and dinner.

In previous years, Jiang Haitian and his two sons were divided into three households, and all of them went directly to Jiang Haitian's family for the New Year.

But now after the construction of the new house, Jiang Haitian is not a single household, Jiang Xiaoji and Jiang Xiaozhou have separated again, so this year is a reunion banquet held at Jiang Xiaoji's house, Jiang Xiaozhou's family will not hold it, and they will not set off firecrackers.

Therefore, he also took out a hexagram and put it down.

The two of them carried the 10,000-word firecrackers to the yard, and several children were excited.

"10,000 words!"

"This year, I will set off firecrackers at my house!"

"Two hexagrams, how long does it take to blow up!"

“……”

Older children like Jiang Xiong and Jiang Ying all know that when they are in the countryside during the reunion, they not only set off firecrackers first, but also beat who's firecrackers.

Put it first, and people will say that the master is diligent.

When the firecrackers are set off for a long time, people will say that the protagonist is rich.

Therefore, seeing Jiang Xiaoji take out the 10,000-character prefix, Jiang Xiong and Jiang Ying were proud.

"Bang Bang ......"

"Bang Bang ......"

The two hexagrams were lit at the same time, and the courtyard was suddenly filled with gunsmoke, and the sound of firecrackers was heard.

The sound of firecrackers means that it is time to have a reunion dinner.

However, there is also a very important ritual before eating, which is ancestor worship.

It is the same as the way Jiang Haiyang worships his ancestors when he moved before, after putting the dishes on the table, he put the dishes and chopsticks, poured wine, burned paper money under the table, and called the deceased relatives to come back for the New Year.

This year, the banquet was set up in the restaurant, with a total of two tables.

Jiang Haitian and Jiang Haiyang are in charge of a table, the process is familiar, and the ancestor worship is completed quickly.

The children rushed up and sat around a table. Lin Jiayin, Luo Zhaodi, Jiang Xiaofeng and other women naturally joined in.

The men went to another table, with Jiang Haitian and Jiang Haiyang sitting on the table, Jiang Haibo and Jiang Xiaobai sitting on the left, Jiang Xiaofeng and Jiang Xiaozhou sitting on the right, and Jiang Xiaoji, as the host, sat down with Jiang Xiaolei.

In the year of the reunion, it must be drinking wine and eating meat.

Although the wine Jiang Xiaoji took out was not Moutai, it was also bottled Luzhou Laojiao.

In previous years, it was all in bulk, but this year it has been upgraded by more than one grade.

The dishes on the table are more than twice as rich as in previous years, mainly with hot pot with cured hooves, a total of more than a dozen dishes, most of which are meat dishes.

It is worth mentioning that there is a famous dish for the New Year in Qingzhou, called "New Year's meat!" It is made of good tenderloin, mainly fatty meat, cut into a rectangular piece, each piece is more than ten centimeters long, one to two fingers thick, the weight ranges from two taels to half a catty, after being cooked together with glutinous rice, it is packed in a large plate like a stone, the amber meat and the snow-white glutinous rice contrast with each other, and it looks very appetizing.

This kind of New Year's meat, which is full of oil in the mouth, but melts in the mouth, is very popular with local adult men.

There is a saying: "Eating New Year's meat is called real meat!" ”

That's because each piece of meat is a large portion.

Think about it, a piece of meat is two taels to half a catty, and almost all of them are fat, and ordinary people really can't afford it.
