Chapter 94: Chinese New Year
Jiang Shujuan really didn't expect that there would be something bought for her mother's family here. She was speechless for a moment. She didn't know what to say, whether to refuse or agree. In the end, Jiang Shujuan still rejected Liu Yiyi's proposal because
The things Liu Yiyi mentioned cost thousands of dollars in total. Her mother-in-law is not a short-sighted person!
"Yiyi, I don't need the things anymore. How can I use the things you bought!"
Liu Yiyi replied with a smile, "Why can't you use the things I bought? What I bought is equivalent to buying it from my grandma, and grandma also said that the Liu family and the Jiang family have only met once, so I came here to think about it this time."
If you want to meet your in-laws, don’t think that they think our old Liu family is rude!"
Liu Yiyi said solemnly, it seemed like that. Old Mrs. Liu listened happily to her granddaughter's words. She really couldn't remember when she had said such words, but she also knew that her granddaughter must have good intentions.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said it in front of my little daughter-in-law.
Old Mrs. Liu really thought it right. Liu Yiyi didn’t do it on purpose. She didn’t want others to think that Old Liu’s family was a poor relative and that her grandma was an old lady from the countryside. The family had no financial resources. She wanted her grandma to live with her aunt.
Her mother's family was very confident, and no one dared to look down upon her. Of course, no one would look down upon her. After all, Liu Aidang was Mrs. Liu's son and was now the head of the legion. Moreover, Liu Aidang was young and had a great chance of promotion.
Well, although the Jiang family did not agree with Jiang Shujuan marrying Liu Aidang at first, as it was a low-income marriage, but now, they are more and more satisfied with Liu Aidang, and even ignored Liu Aidang's birth. Although Jiang Shujuan
My mother still looks down on the old Liu family, but she can't bear the thought that Liu Aidang is promising, and now that there is Liu Yiyue, the designation of the old Liu family will not be too bad!
"Shujuan, I asked Yiyi to prepare these things. I know it well, so you don't have to worry about it!"
Old Mrs. Liu would not disappoint her little granddaughter, saying that these things were prepared for her parents' family. Jiang Shujuan looked at the pile of valuable things and wanted to refuse, but she didn't dare to look at her mother-in-law's eyes.
Whatever she was talking about, she was thinking that even her family would not easily buy these things, and her mother would not be worried about her mother-in-law's family!
Jiang Shujuan, who wanted to understand, immediately laughed along with her, "Then I will thank my mother on behalf of my parents. These are all good things!"
"They are all in-laws, so thank you for anything!"
Mrs. Liu waved her hand indifferently!
As time goes by day by day, it is the day of the Chinese New Year in a blink of an eye. The whole military area is also prosperous. People are posting couplets and setting off firecrackers. Firecrackers are the most festive symbol of the Spring Festival. Whenever we enter the twelfth lunar month, listen to
When we see the sound of firecrackers in markets everywhere, people often say: It feels like the New Year! In the early morning of the Spring Festival, every household will set off firecrackers when they open the door. Firecrackers are a specialty of China. They originated very early, and there are more than 2,000 of them.
years of history.
Children in the military area all come out to pay New Year greetings, preparing to save a few months of snacks during the New Year. After all, on this day, every household will give a handful of melon seeds, peanuts or candies to the children who come to pay New Year greetings. Although these few
The New Year is much better, and every household has some savings. The New Year is the most important festival in country Z. Every household will spend everything they have to have a good year, so the children are blessed.
Facing the children who came to the door, Liu Yiyi gave everyone a handful of candies. She didn't particularly like to eat this stuff, but she couldn't resist the fact that these children loved to eat it, and all she gave them were high-quality toffee.
They were all eye-catching people, and all the auspicious words came out smoothly, and the children rushed to get in front of Yiyi.
"Don't be crowded, don't be crowded, everyone lines up, everyone has a share, everyone has a share!"
Liu Yiyi looked at these children with a bright face, "Yizhe, I leave these candies to you, you are responsible for distributing them to everyone, everyone has a share!"
"Thank you sister Yiyi!"
As soon as Liu Yizhe started, everyone else said, "Thank you, sister!"
"Thank you sister!"
...
In the house, Mrs. Liu and Jiang Shujuan were preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner. It was a reunion dinner, so they were both busy in the kitchen. Liu Yiyi wanted to help, but she felt like she was in a hurry.
Old Mrs. Liu felt quite disgusted and was kicked out of the kitchen by her!
"Is Yiyi being kicked out?"
Liu Yihan looked at Liu Yiyi with gloating. Others don't know whether their own family members know that Yiyi is very good at eating. But the strange thing is that Yiyi is a kitchen killer. As long as she is in the kitchen, then today's
Don’t try to eat the food safely!
Receiving the mocking smile from her little brother, Liu Yiyi sneered disdainfully, "You seem to be very capable. If you have the ability, go in, and I won't kick you out!"
Liu Yihan touched his nose, because he was also a kitchen killer, so Shui shouldn't despise anyone, not to mention his grandma probably despised him even more. Thinking of this, Liu Yihan felt that life was really dark. Other families favored boys over girls.
The old Liu family absolutely favors girls over boys.
"Sister Jiayin doesn't seem to know how to cook, but she said she will find someone who can cook in the future!" Liu Yiyi pointed out, "I'm afraid some people may not have a chance!"
Liu Yihan's face darkened. Thinking of his cooking skills, he seemed to be thinking of his dark life in the future. He retorted, "Jiayin never said that, do you think I will be fooled by what you said?"
Liu Yiyi spread her hands to show that she didn't say anything. Instead, she looked at Liu Yihan with a look of fun, "So you really have thoughts about Sister Jiayin?"
Liu Yiyi looked at Liu Yihan with contempt, "Brother, you are really a beast. Sister Jiayin is only so old, but you can actually do it!"
After saying that, Liu Yiyi still had a look of contempt on her face.
Liu Yi jumped angrily, "Jiayin is only one year younger than me. What do you mean by that look in your eyes? We are at the best age, and Mu Sheng is a beast. He is five or six years older than you!"
As if he had found a reason to be confident, Liu Yihan continued, "You should be more careful. You are only twelve years old now, and you are still young. You cannot fall in love. That kid Mu Sheng just has a good-looking face, and there are other things.
What's good? Don't blame me for not reminding you. Moreover, he will join the army next year. I heard that there are many art soldiers in the army. That boy looks gorgeous. Who knows what will happen in the future? I don't think you are suitable.
!”
After turning around in a big circle, it turned out that this was what the little brother wanted to express. Liu Yiyi raised her eyebrows and said, "I believe him!"
"Okay!" Liu Yihan spread his hands, expressing his helplessness, and finally said, "If that kid bullies you, you must tell us, we will not let him go!"
Liu Yiyi nodded with a smile, not believing that Mu Sheng would betray her at all. If Mu Sheng betrayed her, she could destroy her without them taking action. Of course, she still believed in him!
The New Year's Eve dinner carries the food culture, New Year culture, etiquette culture of country Z, etc., and is rich in connotation. In the north, people love to make dumplings, which is related to the northern food customs, while in the south, it is even richer. Generally speaking, this meal
The meal is a summary of the past year, and families will spend all their money to reward their families; of course, it is also the beginning of the new year, and it is also for the sake of auspiciousness and good omens, so naturally they will not be stingy, so the New Year’s Eve dinner is a must.
It is a "feast" and a "big meal"! Not only in material terms, but also in spirit. No matter how tired the wanderer is, no matter how desolate he returns home, he will have a warm and affectionate New Year's Eve dinner with his family.
You will regain your confidence and face the new journey with your head held high. The New Year's Eve dinner is really a double supplement and enjoyment of material and spiritual things.
The food for the New Year's Eve dinner is very rich. In rural areas, two meals are usually eaten. Breakfast is called "Tuan Early Years", which is relatively simple. The New Year's Eve dinner is an effective way to test the wealth of a family. It can be said to be "spending all your money and being extremely luxurious"
". In the old difficult times, no matter how we usually ate sugary vegetables, we still tried our best to get some meat and wine for the New Year's Eve dinner to satisfy the family's cravings. Therefore, the children at that time looked forward to the New Year, and the adults were afraid of the New Year.
Things are different now. The country has developed rapidly in recent years, and everyone has more or less savings. Although it is still a bit tight compared to foreign countries, compared with previous years, these few years have been like paradise.
You don’t have to starve or freeze. Although you won’t eat big fish and meat every meal, you can always taste a little meat for ten days and a half. During the New Year, everyone spares no effort to bring out the best they can.
The whole family sat together and had a reunion dinner!
Although Mrs. Liu brought Liu Yiyi and Liu Yihan to the army to celebrate the New Year this year, they are not really members of the league. However, next year Liu Aidang and Liu Yiyue will have time to go home to celebrate the New Year, so this year is also considered to have another meaning.
reunion dinner!
Looking at a table of sumptuous meals, including chicken, duck, and fish, and all delicious and delicious, Liu Yiyi patted her belly with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Grandma's craftsmanship is getting better and better. My aunt made it."
The braised pork is also quite delicious, my little uncle has found a treasure!"
"If you like to eat, eat more. That's all your little aunt can do!"
Liu Aidang was obviously too drunk. He didn't see Jiang Shujuan wink at him, so he pretended not to see him. Liu Yizhe also nodded. His mother can cook, but not all the food is delicious, of course braised in soy sauce.
Meat is an exception. His dad’s favorite is braised pork!
"In the new year, I wish grandma a long life and a long life."
"Uncle and auntie, everything goes well and you are in good health!"
"Brother and sister, congratulations on getting rich!"
The family was lively and had a New Year's Eve dinner together. This night was the reunion day for all Z people. Soldiers in the military region who had not returned home also gathered in the canteen to celebrate the New Year. There was also a black TV in the center of the canteen.
