The fish is stewed in direct sauce, the shrimp meat is minced, sweet potato starch is added, and the balls are made, and the staple food is dumplings filled with lard residue and cabbage.

For this sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal, the three of them began to make it after lunch, and they were busy until four o'clock before they could eat.

If this is in the Qin family, after the dishes are cooked, you have to put some dishes with soup out first, and worship the ancestors first, these are the old people in the family or the older ones, and the people who have been in charge of the family secretly do it, after all, now the four olds are broken, these are all traditional dross that should be abandoned, on the surface, no one dares to follow up and face the dry, in private, there are many people who are still secretly worshipping their ancestors.

After all, the traditional customs that have lasted for thousands of years, how can they all be cut down at once for a while.

"It smells so good! Sister, your cooking skills have improved again. Qin Qing, the fire-burner, saw this big table of dishes, and the smile on his face was bright.

"As long as your mouth is sweet, go get the dishes and chopsticks, and the meal will start immediately." At this time, Qin Xi missed things like soda.

Although during the Chinese New Year in the past, because it was winter and the weather was relatively cold, generally speaking, she did not drink drinks, but at this time, she felt that the meals on this large table, if there were drinks, would be more compatible and more feeling.

At this time, the sky outside was still very bright, after all, it was only four o'clock.

They are laughing and laughing here, the food on the table is steaming, the three of you say a word, the atmosphere is not cold at all, but nothing has started next door.

Liu Mei is still in confinement, Qin He's words, he can get three meals a day at home, generally speaking, it is the kind of thing that can be boiled with water, but to let him make hard dishes out on this reunion night, his skills are not enough.

Besides, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, there is nothing at home, and Liu Mei does not allow him to move eggs, what hard dishes can he make.

Although there is a fragrance next door, it is very light, after all, the cold air can block a lot of things, including the aroma of food, it is difficult to smell it if you don't get close.

Liu Mei also got up and came out to move today, the bloated and heavy cotton clothes wrapped her tightly, and her forehead was wrapped with a cloth, so as not to get a cold in her head and a headache in the future, so it can be said that she is fully armed.

"Why did you get out?" Qin He hurriedly walked over and picked up the child.

After this period of practice, he has become very proficient in holding the child.

"I'm so tired from lying down, come out for a walk." Liu Mei sat directly on the small bench on the edge of the stove, and she didn't know what kind of impact her words had on Qin He.

Not to mention anything else, the sentence that he is tired of lying down is enough to make him envious, jealous and hateful.

He made the food at home, and he washed the urine ring, these two things alone were enough to turn him around, plus Liu Mei had situations from time to time and needed his support, he really felt physically and mentally exhausted during this time.

Of course, Liu Mei also thinks that she is the hardest one, because she has to take the child to coax the child to feed the child, and these three things have now become the whole of her life.

In addition, I have to get up at night to feed the child, this thing is really bitter, I have to get up two or three times every night, and I have to coax the child after feeding, and her dark circles under her eyes have come out, and it looks like she is more than three or four years old.

Since giving birth to a child, she hasn't slept a whole night, and she has stayed up all night, and she has lost a lot of hair.

She finally understands now, why is she in confinement, she needs her mother-in-law to help serve, she is busy working alone, she really can't stand it, Qinhe is a big man, rude, such a simple thing as changing the urine ring, he still hasn't figured it out, if it is replaced by his mother-in-law, things will be different.

However, she doesn't know how to talk to her mother-in-law, it stands to reason that her daughter-in-law is confined, and if her mother-in-law has a psychological number, she should take the initiative to come to the countryside to take care of her confinement! Obviously, Liu Qin is not among them.

"What's going to eat tonight?" Liu Mei saw the empty iron pot and asked.

Today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, so you have to eat something delicious!

These days, she eats eggs a little greasy, and now the thing she wants to eat most is meat, and she dreams of eating meat, and she is greedy.

"Same as before, sweet potato rice porridge."

"If you don't have enough to eat, add an egg to boil."

The eggs at home, no matter how greedy Qin He was, did not steal Liu Mei's, because this was Liu Mei's confinement ration, that is, this was his son Qin Zhiwen's ration.

Qin Zhiwen is the name of the eldest in his family, and the two of them racked their brains and consulted Yang Jianhua, who was teaching in the village, before they came up with such a literary, good-sounding, and easy-to-pronounce name.

Although Liu Mei was not very happy, because there was no meat, it was not good to say anything, after all, she still had an egg, but Qin He didn't even have an egg, only a small butterfly pickle with porridge to eat.

This little pickle is still pickled in Qinxi, and there is not much left, so there is no more after eating.

Liu Mei tried to pickle some by herself before, but all of them were rotten, but it can only be said that looking at it and actually operating it are two different things.

There is no chance this year, we can only look at next year.

After dinner, Liu Mei took the child back to the house, but Qin He did not go back to the house to sleep, but went to the next door.

Standing outside the door of the room, wandering repeatedly, he had made up his mind before, but when he really came to this point, he hesitated again, and he couldn't wipe his face.

After a long while, Qin He's feet were frozen, and some of his hair was frozen by white frost, he also came back to his senses, and after exhaling a mouthful of white mist, he still didn't take that step, and turned back.

Qin Jiang and Qin Xi, who were sitting in the house, heard the footsteps of leaving, and both of them knew that missing is missing, and estrangement is estrangement, and if it is not eliminated in time, the two sides will only go farther and farther in the future.

"Okay, don't wait any longer, wash and sleep!"

Both sides are stubborn, and no one will take that step, and they are destined to go further and further in the future.

At this time, Qin Qing is very good at looking at her eyes, although she doesn't understand the development of things very well, but the atmosphere at home is not good, she knows it.

So, obediently followed Qin Xi to wash her face and feet, then went back to the house to sleep, dutifully warmed her sister's bed, and woke up the next morning, she almost forgot about this matter.

Qin Xi was the first to get up, and at other times, she would lie in bed, but not today.

She wrapped two red envelopes, which contained a dime, and placed them next to her brother and Qin Qing's pillows, just to beg for a lottery.

Qin Jiang got up, and soon found a little surprise on the pillow, opened the red envelope very happily, and then wrapped another one for Qin Xi, and Qin Qing didn't fall behind.

"Happy New Year, Creek." Qin Jiang personally handed over the red envelope to Qin Xi.

"Happy New Year, big brother."
