February 19, Chinese New Year's Eve.

Today, the whole session is on holiday.

The sound of firecrackers often rang out in all directions of the family area.

Lu Changzhong hurried home today.

Lao Lu and Lu's mother's main job today is to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

As soon as Lu Changzhong entered the house, he shouted: "Mom, Dad, Happy New Year!" ”

"Oops, Happy New Year! The eldest son is back, hurry into the house. ”

When Lu's mother heard her eldest son's voice, she came up and took the New Year's goods from Lu Changzhong's hand.

Lu Changzhong handed over a bag of candy in his hand to his mother, and carried a heavier Northeast specialty fruit - frozen pears.

This is the New Year's goods they advertise.

There is a woven bag, about ten catties.

Seeing Lu Changzhong carrying frozen pears in his hand, Lao Lu said to his son: "Put the frozen pears outside and freeze." ”

But my mother said, "Let's use a basin to slow down first." ”

"Okay."

Lu Changhua, who was lying on the kang, heard his mother's instructions, so he got up and pulled his cotton shoes to get the basin.

Lu Changzhong brought the frozen pears into the living room.

"Brother, get a basin of cold water."

"Huh."

Lu Changhua scooped half a basin of cold water and carried it in.

The eldest brother has already cut the seal of the bag.

The frozen pears are the size of a fist, round and black, like grenades.

It's cold to the touch.

Seven or eight frozen pears were put into the basin and it was filled.

This pot of blistered pears is on the basin stand.

The sound of stir-frying in the kitchen accompanied by bursts of aroma wafted through the room.

Xiong Bao lay on the side of the fire wall, enjoying the rare warmth.

"Big brother, you take off your shoes, warm and warm, I'll go put the pears."

Lu Changhua picked up the bag of frozen pears and went out.

Tie up half of the bag of frozen pears and throw them on the tarpaulin.

He glanced at the three large curtains on the tarpaulin snow.

Two round curtains are lined with fresh meat dumplings that were completed half an hour ago.

Many wild cats will steal food while the dumplings are still freezing.

This happens all the time.

He touched it gently, and the dumplings were already frozen hard, so he was relieved.

On the other curtain are golden sticky bean buns, each like a large yellow rice ball.

This is a major specialty of the Tohoku.

Flour made from yellow sticky rice, wrapped in bean buns, is one of the staple foods during the Chinese New Year.

Lu Changhua also pinched it with his hand, it was hard, and it had already been frozen hard.

On the kitchen board, several dishes have been placed.

Fried peanuts in advance, fried noodles and fruits, chicken stewed mushrooms, pork stewed vermicelli.

Lao Lu gently scooped up the fried hairtail with a scorched outside and tender inside, gently scooped it up on the pot, drained the oil, and then put it on the plate.

He picked up a small piece of hairtail fish with chopsticks, blew it with his mouth, and handed it to Lu's mother's mouth.

"You taste it."

Mother Lu ate with a smile on her face.

"Well, it's delicious."

"Ahem, Mom and Dad, can you take the dishes and chopsticks?!"

"Take it."

Old Lu gave the order to prepare the meal.

Lu's mother hurriedly picked up the peanuts on the board and handed them to her youngest son.

"Mom, is it delicious?"

"Well, of course it's delicious!"

Lu's mother blushed, and she also picked up a piece and handed it to Lu Changhua.

Lu Changhua opened his mouth and bit it in his mouth.

Seeing that the elder brother began to carry the vegetables, Lu Changzhong also pulled on cotton shoes to help.

Soon the table was filled with dishes.

Braised silver carp is considered a big dish, the big carp is used to entertain guests, and it is the same for eating silver carp first.

Deep-fried hairtail is a high-end dish, and this thing is easy to eat, after all, it is seafood.

Deep-fried peanuts are an essential accompaniment to alcohol.

Chicken stewed with mushrooms and pork stewed vermicelli are considered home-cooked dishes, but they are usually reluctant to eat them, and it is easy not to do them without guests.

Scrambled eggs are considered meat dishes. Eggs are generally sold for some money, and they are reluctant to eat them if they don't eat them.

Stir-fried pork and shredded potatoes, this skewer meat dish is a make-up number.

Vinegared cabbage is the only vegetarian dish.

Eight dishes are already a rare grandeur of the Lu family.

Lu's mother prepared two bowls, one with white rice and the other with some dishes from the table, which were placed on the cabinet on the west side.

Lao Lu took two pairs of chopsticks and placed them next to the two bowls, lighting a candle on each side of the left and one on the right.

Lu Changzhong bought back two bottles of Yuquan wine from the field supply and marketing cooperative, which was to honor his father during the New Year.

Lao Lu poured two cups first and put them in front of the bowl.

"Let's get started."

Lao Lu stepped forward, bowed three times and knocked on the cabinet, and said something in his mouth.

He finished kowtowing, got up and said to Lu's mother, "You come." ”

"Huh."

Mother Lu's expression was solemn, and she slapped the placket of her clothes, and then she knelt on the ground and kowtowed, muttering about the blessing of her ancestors.

After Lu's mother finished worshipping, Lao Lu said to her eldest son, "Boss, you go." ”

Lu Changzhong stepped forward and bowed down and kowtowed in a proper manner.

Lu Changhua knew that this was the rule of the Lu family for many years. For as long as he can remember, every year on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, he has to bow down to his ancestors.

Lu Changhua bowed down this time more pious than ever.

He knew that there was a mysterious force in the underworld, which controlled the development and evolution of the world, otherwise how could he be reborn? There are too many unscientific things, I can't explain them clearly, ancestors, bless my Lu family with peace and smoothness, everything is fine!

He knelt down and meditated.

"Ding Dong!"

At this solemn moment, a ding-dong broke the atmosphere.

Lu Changhua looked at the panel in front of him in surprise.

"Lucky +1"

Well?

He saw that the properties panel had been activated.

"Hydrophilic Attribute +1"

"+1 for Ship Maneuvering"

"Lucky +1"

This is an attribute bonus in addition to the beginner mastery skills of carp farming.

He rowed the boat, activated the attribute panel, got two attribute bonuses, and today worshipping the ancestors, he also activated one attribute bonus.

He stared at "Lucky +1", could it be that the ancestor appeared and increased my luck?

Seeing that the second child was slow to get up, Lao Lu said: "Get up, just be sincere." ”

Only then did Lu Changhua come back to his senses and get up.

"Come, sit down and eat." Lu's mother greeted.

"Today's New Year, our family also drinks some good wine, the boss bought Yuquan, let's drink Yuquan."

Old Lu wiped his hands and sat on the main seat.

A family of four sat around the dinner table.

When Xiong Bao saw that everyone was gathered, he also consciously came over, got under the dinner table, and lay at Lu Changhua's feet.

"I'll pour the wine."

Lu Changhua woke up from the increase in attribute bonuses, quickly took the wine bottle, and poured wine for everyone.

The four cups were full, and then he closed the bottle and put the bottle on his father's side.

Lao Lu raised his wine glass and looked at his two sons with a smile on his face.

"Today, the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family is reunited. Although there was a disaster this year, our family is okay. The boss's work is smooth, the second child has contracted the reservoir, the ice rink rents out skates to earn some money, and the crushing feed can also earn some money, our family's economy is gradually rich, and when the fish are raised, life will be better and better in the future. ”

Lao Lu summed up the family's achievements and proposed to drink one.

So the whole family took a sip in a good mood.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and Lao Lu automatically lifted the rule of not eating and sleeping, and you can chat while eating, otherwise you can't eat this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

The Lu family doesn't have a TV yet, so this year's Spring Festival Gala can't be watched.

In Lu Changhua's previous life, he had great expectations for the Spring Festival Gala every year, but the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment, and he always felt that the year was not as good as the year, and the form was greater than the content.

Later, he watched the Spring Festival Gala mostly as a feeling.

Now that he is living again, he wants to relive it, but he doesn't have this condition at home, so it's a pity.

This Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is difficult to hold on to until midnight because there is no entertainment.

But the custom of eating dumplings at twelve o'clock cannot be lost.

The family ate until nine o'clock, and then took the meal down.

The melon seed candy was served on a plate.

After several hours of soaking in cold water, the frozen pears have pulled out the cold air in the pears.

The frozen pears in this pot were all frozen together, and the shiny ice ballast wrapped the frozen pears in the middle.

Lu Changhua vigorously broke open the ice ballast with his hands and pulled out the frozen pears from it.

How can the frozen pears at this time still look like they were at the beginning?!

It's getting soft. The black, frozen pears were full of juice and were put on a plate by Lu Changhua.

The sweet aroma of pear juice rushes to the nose.

"Here, try the frozen pear."

Lao Lu beckoned, and took one for himself first.

Lu Changhua has been drooling greedily for a long time.

He took a bite off half of the pear.

It's hard to imagine that the flesh of a black frozen pear will be white, and the sweet taste is far more delicious than that of fresh pears.

Lu Changhua skillfully let go of the pear core, and he bit in a circle around the pear core like gnawing on bud rice.

Sweet pear juice flowed between his lips and teeth, dripping all over the table.

"Kid, go ahead and eat."

Mother Lu said angrily, picked up one too, and ate it with relish.

"Brother, where did you buy this pear? So delicious. ”

"The frozen pears purchased this time are really good, and the pear meat is not slag or firewood."

Old Lu also exclaimed.

"I didn't ask, but I heard that the price of frozen pears this time is not cheap."

Lu Changzhong replied while eating.

"Good goods don't come cheap."

Lu Changhua turned to look at Lu Changzhong and asked, "Brother, there's nothing wrong with your unit, right?" ”

"What can it be? Pretty good. ”

Lu Changzhong was asked inexplicably.

"Hehe, big brother, you will be 22 in the New Year, I'm afraid your leaders will care about your personal problems."

"What?"

Old Lu didn't know why.

Lu's mother paused and said, "It's time for the boss to consider a marriage partner." ”

"Well, it's time to think about it when it's time to get married."

Old Lu also muttered.

Lu Changzhong looked at his brother with a dark face.

"What the hell are you talking about, I'm still young, early!"

"Do you care about you, you're still in a hurry!"

Lu Changhua quipped.

The family was chatting and gossiping in this bungalow, and in 1985 they were quietly coming.
