On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhao Yunlan got up early and began to be busy with the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. There are too many people added this year, and Zhao Yunlan wants to let everyone spend a rich year together.

Li Mingren and Li Mingming were arranged by Zhao Yunlan early to take Xiao Ruiwen to paste the word 'Fu' and couplets on their homes.

Ruiwen is in charge of the family's Fu characters, although the characters have not yet been practiced, but these 'Fu' words look very childlike.

The rest of the family was not idle, and Li Mingyi continued to be busy in the restaurant, sticking to the last shift of the year. Old man Li took the people in the family to sweep the dust, remove the old and welcome the new.

Zhao Yunlan was busy from the front yard to the back yard, and the Wang family only had to take care of Wu Yi. The day before yesterday, the doctor came to check Wu Yi's pulse, but the fetus has not yet sat firmly, but it is not a big problem, just need to take care of it.

And Li Mingli came to life again after talking to Wang. In fact, the Wang family didn't say anything too serious to Li Mingli that night, nor did he admonish him bitterly, but simply said: "San Lang, you have suffered!" Then he took a set of newly made clothes and gave Li Mingli a comparison on his body.

Li Mingli's grievances, depression, entanglement, and complex emotions of not being able to release adolescent hormones in the past few days broke out at this moment under the instigation of family affection, and he couldn't cry at once.

"Third brother, you take He Wen to Zhuangzi to choose another sheep to come back, and catch six more chickens." Zhao Yunlan thought that the dishes prepared before were not enough, so she asked Li Mingli to take charge of this matter.

Li Mingli responded happily: "Okay, sister-in-law." I'll go. ”

Zhao Yunlan then returned to the kitchen and checked the menu.

The last reunion dinner of the old year must be sumptuous, which means that the coming year will be another year of abundance.

Today, the three cooks are on the battlefield, plus Zhao Yunlan together, and the kitchen is very lively.

After checking the menu, everything is almost ready, and the sheep and chickens on Mingli's side are missing.

"Granny Xiao, your fish tastes good, you have to be responsible for this dish tonight. It should not only taste good, but also be generous, so that everyone can eat happily and enjoy eating. ”

Granny Xiao smiled: "Young lady, you can rest assured that you will hand it over to me, this old woman." ”

Zhao Yunlan continued to arrange: "Sister-in-law Xia, the steamed pork and pork ribs we made will be handed over to you, as well as the sauce elbow you made." ”

Zhang Xia responded, and her hands were not free, and she was helping to cut sweet potatoes.

Yang Dapang is in charge of stewing mutton soup, and the fat sister-in-law's soup stewed is delicious.

Tonight, Zhao Yunlan still organized everyone to eat mutton soup hot pot. It's not that Zhao Yunlan is trying to save trouble, and it is quite cumbersome to prepare food in the early stage of eating hot pot, but he can't bear the greed of everyone in his family, especially the brothers of the Li family. Maybe it's better to be righteous, after all, you smell it every day in the restaurant.

Several cooks began to wash and chop vegetables and prepare vegetables. Zhao Yunlan is also going to make a cold chicken slices tonight. Think about the chicken slices and pour a spoonful of oil and spicy seeds on top at the end, which definitely makes people want to eat it.

In the past two years, Li Mingli has been planting peppers, and now Zhao Yunlan can be said to be no shortage of peppers. Zhao Yunlan also dried a batch of dried peppers to make pepper noodles, and finally made them into oily spicy seeds.

The kitchen was temporarily assigned, and Zhao Yunlan went to the main courtyard to see the Wang family.

Li Mingmei: "Sister-in-law, just let me do something for you!" I'm distressed that you're busy working alone! ”

Zhao Yunlan smiled: "You clever girl, I'm not busy with anything, just go around here and there and tell everything." If you really want to do something, you can take the girls in the yard to cut some plums and insert them in bottles. ”

Li Mingmei: "Okay, in the past two days, I saw that the vase was empty, so I thought about inserting some flowers." ”

After speaking, Li Mingmei took Xia Xiang and Qiuyue to the garden, and several plum trees were planted in the garden here, and every time the wind blows, the fragrance of flowers will smudge the whole house.

Wang smiled: "It's really not in shape, it's like a child." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Isn't my little sister still young!" Let her go. ”

Wang looked at Zhao Yunlan and shook her head helplessly: "You just get used to her." ”

Zhao Yunlan smiled and continued to work.

Li Mingli had already pulled the sheep back, and He Nian and his wife went back to Li's house together. Because we want to have a reunion dinner together tonight. The sheep and the six chickens had already been killed on the village before they were brought back.

"Sister-in-law, the sheep and chickens are all in the kitchen." Li Mingli sighed.

Zhao Yunlan responded happily: "Okay, it's hard work third brother." ”

Li Mingli: "Harm, let's not talk about these rituals as a family." ”

Zhao Yunlan smiled: "Third brother, you go to Steward Li and take a few boys to patrol the house, take a look at every corner, and check it carefully." ”

Li Mingli smiled stupidly: "Okay, sister-in-law." "I turned around and went to find Li Zhongyou.

Zhao Yunlan looked at Li Mingli, maybe he hasn't completely let go yet, but it's a good thing that he can cheer up.

After lunch, Zhao Yunlan still rested for about two quarters of an hour before continuing her busy work in the morning.

All the lanterns in the house were hung, and it was festive and peaceful. Li Zhongyou took this account book to Zhao Yunlan again, this is the account book of the public middle school, Zhao Yunlan quickly counted it, and handed it over to Li Zhongyou if there were no mistakes or omissions.

After a busy afternoon, Zhao Yunlan began to make cold chicken, in fact, this dish is simple and simple, you only need to cook the chicken and then tear it off and mix it with seasoning. However, the seemingly simple steps often pay more attention to details, just talking about boiling chicken, you can prepare the soup base of boiled chicken, star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon, and peppercorns.

The time to cook the chicken should not be too short, the time is short, and the chicken is not cooked, but it will affect the appetite if it is cooked but the bite is hard. And if it's cooked for too long, the chicken can't be raked softly.

Finally, Zhao Yunlan added some bracken and dried lettuce and mixed it together, so that the chicken would not be too greasy to eat with vegetables.

Of course, Zhao Yunlan will definitely not miss the seasoning of the vegetables, and Zhao Yunlan is still very confident in this. Considering that there are still many elderly and children in the family, Zhao Yunlan is not spicy, so everyone can taste it.

The dishes are almost ready, and the mutton bone soup in the pot is also gurgling. Just waiting for Li Mingyi and them to come back with the pot. There are only two pots at home that she uses to eat hot pot, so Zhao Yunlan asked Li Mingyi to bring three pots back from the store after closing.

Just thinking about this, I heard a noisy sound from the front yard, this is Li Mingyi coming back with his subordinates, and Li Mingming is also next to him.

Old man Li happened to be playing with Ruiwen in the front yard, and when he saw the brothers come back together, he asked, "I said I didn't see you all afternoon, when did you go out, fourth?" ”

Li Zhizhi said happily: "Take advantage of my father and mother's lunch break." ”

Old man Li glanced at the firecrackers in Li Mingming's arms, and understood what this kid was doing when he ran out.

Sure enough, it's still a child.

Zhao Yunlan rushed to the front yard and greeted: "Ye Min, you guys take the pot to the kitchen yard, everyone rest for a while, let's prepare for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ”

Li Mingyi first went back to the west courtyard to change clothes, and looked at his daughter-in-law, the table in the main courtyard was almost set, and Li Mingyi helped Wu Yi to the main courtyard. After all, when serving food, there were many people, and now they are all focused on Wu Yi.

The tables of the subordinates were all placed in the front yard, and the old man Li took Li Mingren and several brothers to accompany the subordinates to drink a glass of wine, and said the blessings of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new to let everyone move.

The dishes in the main yard and the front yard are the same, and there is no favoritism. Even Zhao Yunlan asked a few cooks to give enough dishes in the front yard.

Old man Li and the others returned to the backyard, and the family began to eat happily at the reunion dinner.

Wang looked at Zhao Yunlan and then at Wu Yi, and couldn't stop rejoicing in his heart.

Zhao Yunlan: "I hope our family can be like this table of dishes, more than every year, prosperous." ”

Wang smiled: "Okay, it's booming." ”

Old man Li: "Then let's eat first." ”

Li Mingming also echoed: "Yes, eat, eat." ”

The family burst into laughter, had a meal, and had fun. There are more people in the family, and it is more lively.

Li Mingzhi took Ruiwen to set off firecrackers in the courtyard again, and outside the gate, Li Zhongyou also took the boys to set off firecrackers. In the sound of firecrackers, everyone ushered in the new year.

Thank you for the monthly pass of Senglzs!
