Chinese New Year's Eve.

The warmer weather suddenly cooled down again. The sky was scattered with snowflakes.

Snowflakes fall on the board, are dyed red, everyone's heart is also very hot, this is destined to be a prosperous New Year.

"Mama Liu, after the sheep is cleaned up, these seasonings and sauces will be smeared in turn and marinated for half an hour."

Gu Qing took Gu Yu, Gu Nuo, Zhu Mama and Xia Zhu to wrap red envelopes on the side. She cut paper with Mama Zhu, Xia Zhu pasted it into the style of a red envelope with batter, Gu Nuo put the red envelope by the fireplace and dried the batter on it, and Gu Yu loaded the money.

Each red envelope has ten copper plates, not much money, and the picture is festive.

There are a lot of children in the village, and the whole village will come to her house tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings.

The New Year's goods at home, Yang Pei and Zhu Han have already been purchased, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner has Mother Liu, the imperial chef, and Zhu Han, the chef, and there is no place for Gu Qing at all.

Even the roasted whole lamb that Gu Qing finally thought of was not unusual, Mama Liu was born in the palace, and she had never seen any kind of food.

Zhu Han communicates with food lovers in the store about local specialties every day, including this roasted whole lamb.

What made him happy was that the head of the family would actually do it.

The whole family was busy until it was almost dark, and the sumptuous reunion dinner was finally put on the table.

At the end of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the whole village is very lively, and many people will observe the New Year.

As soon as it gets dark, the firecrackers in the village crackle, and the next one is finished, and there is almost no break in between.

Gu Qing had already prepared firecrackers, set off firecrackers in the courtyard, and the meal could be officially opened.

There are a lot of people in the family during the Chinese New Year this year, there are more than 20 people in the family, plus more than 20 people bought in the town, and now there are more than 50 people in the family.

More than 50 people, divided into five tables, one table for these masters headed by Gu Qing, and four tables for the rest of the family maids.

Twelve dishes per table, a head bowl, braised fish, roasted whole lamb, stewed chicken with mushrooms, ginger duck, sweet and sour pork ribs, sauce elbow...... A pot of rice wine was placed on each table...... The color and flavor are complete, and it can be said to be abundant to the extreme.

Gu Nuo raised his head while eating the dishes and said, "Eldest sister, after eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, can you set off firecrackers to play?" ”

Gu Qing looked at Gu Nuo, who had gained a lot of weight beside him, coughed lightly, lowered his head and said, "Yes, you will be eleven years old after the New Year, but you have to study hard and strive to give your eldest sister a top exam." ”

"Don't worry, eldest sister, I will not disappoint eldest sister!"

Gu Nuo was thinking about setting off fireworks, and the speed of eating was much faster. The family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was finished in less than half an hour.

Gu Qing took Gu Nuo and a few small ones to the front yard to set off firecrackers and fireworks, Yang Pei and a few others also followed, with a smile on the corner of their mouths, Gu Qing watched the fireworks, and they watched Gu Qing.

Gu Qing was stared at by several strange eyes, and only felt furious in his heart, "You are evil in the New Year, why have you been staring at me?" ”

"The county lord lined with moonlight tonight is particularly beautiful!"

"Moonlight?" Gu Qing looked up at the sky, and it was pitch black: "Are you sure?" ”

Several people did not answer.

Handing the fire fold to Gu Nuo, Gu Qing pointed to the firecracker on the side and said, "Come on, start your performance." ”

"Okay." Gu Nuo immediately responded, stepped forward and took a firecracker and tied it to a long wooden stick, handed the head of the wooden stick to Gu Gu, then took the fire fold and blew it up, stepped forward and clicked the introduction and immediately retreated.

The next moment, the crackling sound instantly resounded in everyone's eardrums, Gu Qing handed the long wooden stick to Gu Nuo, and stood beside Gu Yu.

The rest of the children were jumping up and down, gurgling and not knowing what to say, and they couldn't hear anything from the sound of firecrackers.

The firecrackers were finished after a while, and Gu Qing took out the fireworks.

Gu Yu looked at Gu Nuo's appearance of lighting firecrackers and thought it was very funny, so he said, "Eldest sister, I want to try it too!" ”

After getting Gu Qing's approval, Gu Yu took the fire fold and went to order it. However, after touching it, he immediately ran back without looking.

For a long time, there was no movement.

Gu Yu turned around and looked back, and Gu Nuo on the side laughed heartily, "Hahahahaha, I didn't light it at all." Second sister, why are you so daring! ”

In the end, Gu Nuo went to order.

With a 'bang', fireworks burst into the sky and burst into brilliant fireworks, and everyone looked up with a satisfied smile on their faces.

The villagers in the village, whose doors had been closed, also ran to the courtyard to see when they heard the sound.

In the new year, they will get better and better.

On the day of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhu Han and several people lay on the Taishi chair to watch the New Year, and did not sleep all night.

Early in the morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Qing was caught out of the bed by Mama Zhu.

It's still snowing outside, but it's lighter, and many people in the village are shoveling snow.

Gu Yu and Gu Nuo got up early, and when they saw Gu Qing get up, they ran to her to greet her for the New Year.

Gu Qing was holding two red money bags in his hands, with twenty taels of broken silver in them, and one person gave one.

After eating, he gave a red envelope to all the family members, all of whom were five taels of silver.

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Gu brought her family to pay New Year's greetings, Mrs. Gu was old, but Gu Qing's status was high, so naturally she came to pay New Year's greetings to Gu Qing first.

As soon as Mrs. Gu entered the door, she first took the family to give Gu Qing a regular salute, and then took out a stack of red envelopes and distributed them to Gu Qing's three and Gu Qing's five husbands.

Gu Qing was also prepared for a long time, and Mama Zhu went to the treasury to take six horses of the holy reward for each of the adults in the Gu family's old mansion.

and sealed a red envelope of one or two silver for each of the children in the old house.

There are a lot of dried fruit pastries and candy prepared at home, but when mortals come, Gu Qing asks people to make a cup of hot tea for adults, grab a handful of candy and a red envelope for children.

Just after sending red envelopes to my cousins and sisters, the Lizheng family came over again, and then many people came one after another.

Aunt Zhao's family, Mrs. Gu's family, and those who worked in the workshop, the villagers of Gujia Village, and those homeless people all came happily.

Gu Yu took Gu Nuo to Lizheng's house to pay New Year's greetings, and by the way, he was looking for Jinhua, the eldest sister, to play together.

By noon, everyone had almost gone back, and Gu Qing could finally take the opportunity to rest for a while, there were more than 2,000 people in the village, and the threshold of her house was about to be broken in the morning, and her face was about to stiffen.

Twenty catties of candy were distributed, and more than 600 red envelopes were distributed.

Gu Qing sat on the back of the chair without any image, and when she saw the eyes of Mama Zhu, she immediately did it obediently, and took out the red envelopes for Yang Pei and a few people, one for each person.

The red envelope is very large, with two hundred taels of silver tickets per person.

In the past six months, the family has been able to make such changes because of the concerted efforts of the family, especially Zhu Han and Yang Pei.

I leave early and return late every day, and I have never rested a day. Zhu Han has the least words and the most flexible temperament.

Since Yang Pei started business, he has had more contact with customers from the south and north, and he has become extremely talkative.

Sometimes seeing him doing business and handling things sophisticatedly, Gu Qing sighs to himself.

As for Mo Li and Dong Rong, after the Lantern Festival, they should leave.

Thanks to Suyu's two monthly passes, as well as the 1666 reading coins rewarded. Love you, Momoda^3^
