Chapter Seventy-Nine: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner

Yu Meijun cooked the dishes in the kitchen, and Chen Yuanyuan helped bring the dishes to the table.

After Chen Yuanyuan finished serving the dishes, he went upstairs and gave them the New Year's gift prepared for Shen's father and Shen's mother.

Father Shen saw the ancient borrowed military book and immediately flipped through it, and if it wasn't for the fact that he was ready to eat, he was reluctant to put it down. And Shen's mother held the imperial green jade pendant necklace and couldn't put it down.

"Mom, if you like it, wear it and take a look!" Chen Yuanyuan said.

"It's not good-looking after cooking today, so keep it for tomorrow and wear it for the New Year." Yu Meijun excused himself.

"Nonsense, my wife doesn't look good." Shen Manzhong, who has always been silent, suddenly spoke sweetly, making Yu Meijun's face blush.

"Shameless, the children are here!" Shen's father took the necklace and put it on for Yu Meijun, and the jade pendant necklace was really suitable for Shen's mother.

"Such a well-behaved girl, how good it would be for my granddaughter-in-law!" Grandma Shen looked at Chen Yuanyuan as beautiful and well-behaved, if Shen Yichen could marry such a wife, she would be comforted.

"Mom, I'm more anxious than you! Husband, do you want some drink tonight? Shen Manzhong has to stay sober at all times due to work, and he rarely drinks at home, but it is rare for Yu Meijun to ask about it during the New Year.

"Okay, take down the thatched wine from my study, and Xiaoyuan will have two glasses with my uncle?" Shen Manzhong was in a good mood, so he asked Chen Yuanyuan.

"Okay, you can drink a little!" Chen Yuanyuan hadn't drunk liquor for a long time, but when he heard that it was a collection of wine, he immediately became interested.

After Shen Manzhong took the Mao wine brought by Yu Meijun, he took two wine dispensers and poured the wine.

Jingling! The doorbell rang outside the house, and Dong Solstice immediately ran to the door and wagged his tail excitedly.

"Let's see, is it our family Yichen home!" Although Grandma Shen never mentioned it, she still hoped that the family would be neat and tidy on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Yu Meijun opened the door and saw Shen Yichen rushing home all the way.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom... Yuanyuan, I'm back." Shen Yichen looked straight at Chen Yuanyuan.

"Let's hurry up and enter the house, I haven't seen enough since I was a child." Yu Meijun saw Shen Yichen's eyes, and two words immediately popped up in her heart - there is a play.

"Wash your face and come over for dinner, and have two drinks with me." Shen Manzhong saw his son who hadn't shown up for a long time, although he knew that he had something important to do, but he was actually worried all the time.

Everyone sat down at the table, and the table was full of dishes, including lobster in soup, steamed king crab, kung pao shrimp balls, steamed Dongxing class, sea mantis in the typhoon shelter, salt-baked chicken, etc., plus a variety of cold dishes for 12 dishes

Today's dishes have both the flavor of Beijing and the characteristics of Xiangcheng, and Shen's father took the lead in raising his glass.

"My wife has worked hard today, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is neat and tidy, Xiaoyuan can also reunite with us, everyone has a drink together!" Then they raised their glasses and drank freely.

"Wow, uncle, this wine is so delicious, I don't choke at all!" Chen Yuanyuan was originally not very interested in liquor, but after drinking a glass, he found that the wine tasted mellow and fragrant, and it was also very comfortable to drink.

"Of course, this bottle of wine was bought at the turn of the millennium, and usually your Uncle Shen is reluctant to take it out." Yu Meijun said.

After years of precipitation, the taste of Maojiu is delicate, the body is mellow, not only the entrance has a long aftertaste, but also the glass has the exclusive aroma of liquor after drinking.

"Dad, you are so willing, when I was eighteen years old and just an adult, you fooled me with a bottle of new wine." Shen Yichen said deliciously.

"Can it be the same, Madoka hasn't been back to the mainland for almost two years." Although Shen Manzhong is rarely at home, he still feels a lot of pain for Chen Yuanyuan in his heart.

"Haha, then I have to toast Uncle Shen!" Chen Yuanyuan happily toasted Shen Manzhong.

The family of five happily ate the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and the winter solstice also ate with a round belly under the feeding of everyone.

In a cheerful atmosphere, one glass after another, the three people who drank opened another bottle of wine unconsciously.
