Chapter 125 Night Watch

Compared with ordinary days, Fan Qian's family's New Year's dinner was very good.

A pound of fat meat was stewed together with the tofu and Chinese cabbage sent by Fan Jin, making a large pot full.

Cut a pound of lean meat into shreds and use it to stir-fry winter bamboo shoots.

Chop the leeks into fine pieces, add two duck eggs and fry them into egg pancakes.

I won’t eat anything thin today, only dry food.

From black flour pancakes to corn flour pancakes.

However, their food was originally the only one in the village and one of the best, but this year other villagers have earned rice and wages, so the New Year's food is obviously much better, no worse than his family's.

And compared with previous years, this year’s New Year’s dinner is not as good as every year.

Happiness is sometimes a comparative form. It gets better year by year, and life is prosperous and promising. On the contrary, happiness is not too strong.

Sun Jinhua led Fan Zhaodi to work in the kitchen all morning.

She does all the fetching of water, choosing, washing, chopping, mincing meat and cooking all by herself!

Daughter Fan asked her brother to carry firewood and make a fire.

Sun Jinhua was very angry, remembering that she was always the one waiting for the meal!

Hu Shuiqing and Da Ya Er Ya were busy in the kitchen. The cooking was slow and the cooking was not delicious, but she could still make some mocking remarks.

This year it was completely different, it was herself.

"Mom, is the New Year's dinner ready? I'm almost starving to death!" Fan Dazhu poked his head into the kitchen and asked dissatisfiedly.

Sun Jinhua saw her sixteen-year-old eldest son with a flattering smile on her face: "It's coming, it's coming, don't worry, it will be fine soon."

Fan Dazhu smelled the smell of meat and looked straight at the fat meat in the tofu and cabbage beside the stove.

He quickly stretched out his hand, picked up a piece of fat between his thumb and index finger, and stuffed it into his mouth, "Hot, hot, hot! Delicious!"

Sun Jinhua wanted to hit him, but she resisted. She just frowned and criticized: "It's only a pound of meat in total. I know how many pieces to cut into. Don't eat it."

If you eat too much, your grandma will definitely scold you if she finds out! "

Maybe my mother-in-law will think she ate it secretly.

Fan Dazhu shrugged nonchalantly and said casually: "What are you afraid of? I am the eldest grandson, and grandma will not be reluctant to part with you.

Besides, isn't there Zhaodi in the kitchen? If grandma really asks, mother, you can just say that Zhaodi is eating. "

Fan Zhaodi, who was quietly lighting a fire at the entrance of the stove, stretched out his head and looked at his eldest brother with eyes shining with disbelief.

Fan Dazhu ate a piece of fat meat and went out satisfied.

As soon as Fan Dazhu went out, Fan's mother came in with a gloomy face and cursed: "My dear, your hands are lame. I expect you to cook. Let's see how long it takes you to cook!"

Other families have started to celebrate the New Year, but our family has not recovered yet. Whoever’s wife is as useless as you has been kicked out long ago. "

Sun Jinhua snorted coldly, and the whole family sat waiting for dinner, and then they ordered her around.

Nowadays, we are still picky!

She yelled back: "Mother-in-law, if you think it's too slow, why don't you come and burn it?"

She is not Hu Shuiqing, so she will not let her mother-in-law be beaten and scolded whenever she wants.

What's more, Hu Shuiqing now dares to resist her mother-in-law, so why shouldn't she?

Fan's mother was furious and her chest heaved violently. Then she saw the dishes on the stove and sneered: "Okay, the tofu and bamboo shoots are my son's filial piety. Don't eat them later!"

After saying that, he turned around and went out.

Sun Jinhua, who was left behind, sighed, "I made it, why can't I eat it! I have to eat it."

The last time Fan came to build a house, Fan's mother stepped forward and asked the carpenter to make a table out of wood with a shy face.

Because they were taken advantage of, the wooden table was not polished or varnished, so it was very rough.

But compared to not having money, roughness is nothing.

Sun Jinhua and Fan Zhaodi brought the food to the table. Fan's mother, Fan Qian, Fan Dazhu, two, three and four pillars were already sitting on all sides of the table.

They stared straight at the dishes and swallowed hard.

Before Fan Zhaodi could place the last pancake firmly, people in the circle cheered and reached out to grab the corn noodle pancake.

When you grab it, stuff it into your mouth, and use your other hand to pick up the meat on the table!

Normally, the Fan family has always implemented a distribution system, and Fan's mother distributes the food. However, it is different during the New Year. Everyone can eat what they want.

But for Fan Zhaodi, this was even worse, because she had no seat and could only stand at the corner of the table to pick up a few dishes, but she was short and had short hands, so she couldn't pick up anything at all.

Fan's mother saw it and felt that she could eat less if she couldn't get enough. The delicious food could be left to Jin Sunsun.

When Sun Jinhua saw it, she felt that she was useless because she couldn't even grab the food in front of her!

Fan Qian and Fan Dazhu didn't look up at all. They only focused on the food on the table. Anyway, as long as they grabbed the food themselves!

Fan Zhaodi got a piece of corn flour pancake, holding the bowl, silently found a place where he usually squatted, and ate it in small bites.

A family conversation came to my ears: "Fat meat is so delicious!"

"The duck egg and chive pancake is also delicious! Don't grab it, or I'll lose it."

"Save some shredded meat for me!"

"I want vegetable soup too, and I'll eat it with pancakes."

When she heard that the vegetable soup was gone, the light on Fan Zhaodi's face disappeared. She had just been preparing to wait for her family to finish eating and dip some pancakes into the vegetable soup.

"Mom, didn't my uncle also bring soybean noodles and glutinous rice noodles? Why didn't I see them?" Fan Dazhu was eating heavily when he suddenly remembered to ask.

Fan Sanzhu immediately asked: "Yes, there are a lot of glutinous rice noodles! Soybean noodles too, why don't you make them and eat them?"

Sun Jinhua said angrily: "I can't stop your mouths by eating meat!

Why eat such delicious food at noon? Wait until dinner and make tangyuan for dinner. "

Fan Dazhu and others cheered immediately.

Glutinous rice noodles are fine grains, so delicious!

Everyone at the table was filled with joyful smiles, except Fan Zhaodi who shrank his thin body in the corner.

On New Year's Eve, people have to stay up all night, and they can't go to bed until the firecrackers are set off in the middle of the night to welcome the New Year.

The children also stayed up all night, but most of them were too excited to sleep because of the novelty.

Shuiqing had taken out everyone's New Year clothes and placed them at the head of their respective beds.

They were neatly arranged, just waiting to be changed into them early tomorrow morning.

In the warm dining room, the pastry boxes on the table were filled with jujube flower cakes, hawthorn pot cakes, bean paste cakes, peach blossom cakes, mung bean cakes, and osmanthus rice cakes, and tea and sugar water were placed next to the cakes.

Candy There were all kinds of candy balls in the box, colorful and beautiful.

There were also pears, oranges, hawthorn balls and other fruits.

The five children looked at this and that, not knowing which one to eat first.

They just thought everything was delicious and wanted to eat everything!

Finally, the cakes were broken into several pieces, and the brothers and sisters each took a bite to try the taste, and then picked the ones they liked.

They picked two candies that they wanted to eat.

The fruits were cold and belonged to the least popular variety.

Children did not like to eat fruits, but Shuiqing liked them very much.

She put the tongs on the brazier, put an orange on it and roasted it until the skin turned black and juice popped out, and then she took it down quickly.

When it was not too hot, she peeled it and ate it while it was hot.
