Chapter 291 New Year's Eve

This year’s Chinese New Year,

Uncle Ding, Uncle Zhang, Peng Zhikun, and Luo Xuan all had a very special year.

Uncle Ding brought over 2 chickens, Uncle Zhang brought over 3 ducks, and Peng Zhikun brought over a goose.

The two brothers from the Zhou family brought over a few fish and a pig's head. They didn't know where they got it.

The production team's pond was fished years ago, and every household encountered several fish.

It's just that Luo Xuan is no longer a member of the Zhengxing Team 6, so he is not eligible to participate in the sharing of fish and meat.

therefore,

Brothers Zhou Lao Er and Lao San brought all the fish they had received.

If you have a banquet, you must have fish, whether you like it or not.

In addition to chickens, ducks and geese, everyone also brought all the meat at home to Luo Xuan's house, and the men and women started cooking New Year's Eve dinner together.

Dai Hongmei and Yi Yang, the young couple, wanted to accompany Dai Hongmei and her parents to celebrate the New Year, so they did not come to join the New Year mutual aid group this time.

The New Year is very tiring, but everyone is also very happy.

After all, the Spring Festival is the one with the strongest festive atmosphere among all traditional festivals.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, I cleaned the house and started preparations for the New Year’s Eve dinner.

For families with many relatives and friends, they also need to cut red paper and make a few simple red envelopes.

So that on the first day of the new year, I can send red envelopes to my children for good luck, and also to make the children who have been waiting for a long time happy.

Communal members who have elderly people at home will take some of the money allocated by the production team at the end of the year early and stuff it into the pockets of their elderly people.

This money is used as a filial piety to the elderly.

Another thing is that after the second day of the Lunar New Year, younger generations will come to pay New Year greetings to the elderly at home.

By the time,

These old people who cannot make money only have money in their pockets. Only then can they take out money and give red envelopes to the younger generations.

According to the custom in rural areas of Bashu Province, relatives come to visit and bring their children to pay New Year greetings.

These etiquettes usually only start in the second grade of junior high school.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone does not visit each other.

On New Year's Eve, Luo Xuan and everyone had been busy all day, and now they were preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.

On the dinner table.

Plates upon plates, bowls upon bowls upon bowls.

There were about 20 dishes, filling the originally small table to the brim!

It is no exaggeration to say that this year’s New Year’s Eve dinner at my own home was so sumptuous.

Looking at the entire Hongxing Commune, you can't find a few like this.

——Except city dwellers.

The 20 or so dishes on this table can only be compared with the members of the production team.

As for those public servants who live on the streets, especially families with many public servants working at home.

They could still afford to buy just such a table of dishes.

However, even such a sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner can’t hold everyone back from eating.

Here are people like Uncle Ding, Uncle Zhang, Peng Zhikun, and Boss Zhou.

There is no one with poor fighting ability.

Even Aunt Seven, Aunt Zhang, Lao Er Zhou and the others don’t have a fuel-efficient lamp.

One person finished 4 or 5 bowls of food without even wiping his mouth.

During this period, everyone generally lacks oil and water.

It is not strange for a man with a big belly to eat three bowls of bean sprouts alone.

To know,

One portion of doubanjiang requires 8 taels of pork belly.

In other words, if you meet someone who is particularly good at fighting and eating, he will dare to eat 2 pounds and 4 taels of meat in one meal!

so.

Everyone was faced with a huge and sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner on a full table. In fact, everyone present ate quite restrainedly.

"Come, let me toast the elders here."

After opening a bottle of Wuliangye, Zhou Laoer helped fill a ring of 5-yen wine glasses.

Luo Xuan stood up and raised his glass to Uncle Ding, Peng Zhikun, and Uncle Zhang, "Elders, I wish you good health and happiness to your family, and I wish you all better and better days in the future!

"

Peng Zhikun raised his glass and said: "This is the first glass of wine that Luo Xuan is toasting to us. You have to drink it. Come on, let's raise our glasses. I also wish Luo Xuan that your sesame seeds will bloom steadily and the road will be broader and broader in the future!"

Everyone said a few polite words, said some auspicious words to each other, and cheered each other up.

Then he tilted his neck and drank the wine in the glass.

What a great wine!”

Uncle Ding put the small wine glass under his nose and smelled it carefully: "I have heard of this wine too. Workers at agricultural machinery factories like to drink this wine during festivals!

The price of this bottle is equivalent to a full month’s dividend for a strong worker in our production team!”

Luo Xuan laughed and said: "Uncle Ding, just open your belly and drink. I'll take care of you for today's wine!"

Wuliangye during this period was actually not as famous as Luzhou Laojiao.

It's not expensive either, a bottle is only 3.88 cents.

Like those workers at the agricultural airport, especially those working in two-income families, they usually want to buy a bottle of Wuliangye to satisfy their cravings or to entertain people.

There's really no pressure.

Aunt Zhang poured herself a bowl of "red wine", then raised the bowl and toasted to Uncle Ding first.

Uncle Ding swallowed the red wine with a look of joy on his face: "Ah, this tastes good! It's as sweet as drinking sugar water.

No wonder my girl has been clamoring several times to ask me to come to the consignment store and bring back a pound of red wine for her to try."

Zhou Laoer also drank the bowl of red wine with a "dong", wiped his mouth and nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Well, this is delicious! Not sour, sweet, delicious!"

Now the members of the production team are having a happy event.

Some families with slightly better conditions will also have two kilograms of red wine on a table to entertain guests.

Luo Xuan took a bowl of red wine, took a sip, and quickly spit it on the ground, "What kind of red wine is this?"

In my own consignment store, I have always sold a kind of bulk red wine.

It's just that in this life, when I was reincarnated as a human, my body was still relatively immature and I didn't drink.

Therefore, I have never tried the red wine to see what it tastes like.

I didn’t know what I was doing if I didn’t drink it just now, but I was shocked when I drank it!

What kind of bad wine is this?

It’s purely a red wine made from coloring matter, added with saccharin, and a few drops of wine added in to blend it!

this period.

The supply and marketing cooperative will also go to other places to organize some of the more fashionable products to meet everyone's different needs.

Especially Shanghai, which has the most developed industry and the highest quality of industrial products.

Whatever is popular there, supply and marketing cooperatives will most likely follow suit and purchase what kind of goods they can sell.

Since last year,

The person in charge of purchasing at Rongwei County Supply and Marketing Cooperative heard that drinking red wine is popular among foreign friends in Shanghai and Beijing.

So the supply and marketing cooperative, together with the Materials Bureau, went to Qilu Province and organized a batch of bulk red wine to come back.

However, due to the limited consumption capacity of the production team members, when the purchasers of the supply and marketing cooperative go out to assemble goods, their first priority is the price issue.

In the agency store,

What kind of "red wine" is sold for 40.7 cents a pound? You can probably figure it out with your toes.

I see everyone is talking about red wine. This red wine is just like brown sugar water and quite delicious.

Luo Xuan stood up and said, "I remember that Mr. Ji also has two bottles of real red wine. Wait a minute, I'll get it for you to try."

Said,

Luo Zhuan turned around and walked out of the house and walked to the hut next door where Ji Xuyuan lived.

He stepped into the space and took out two bottles of imported red wine.

this period.

We are a member of the "Council for Mutual Economic Cooperation" and have close trade ties with many socialist countries in Eastern Europe.

Therefore, there are actually many original imported red wines on the market.

It’s just that drinking red wine is not inconsistent with our traditional culture and eating habits.

As a result, drinking red wine is only popular in a small circle and has not become popular on a large scale.

A while ago,

Liu Fugui, who was extremely red, received a lot of red wine.

Out of curiosity, he tried to open one of the bottles, took a sip, and immediately drank for a long time, as if the red wine was poisonous.

He kept drinking with disgust on his face!

Liu Fugui thought the red wine tasted bad, but he didn't dislike it! He asked for it after changing hands and put it in the space for storage.

I just wait for one day to meet the right person, and the two of them can slowly sip this red wine together under the stars.

Anyway, it’s free of charge, so don’t give it for free.

Carrying two bottles of red wine, Luo Xuan returned to the dinner table.

Since there is no dedicated bottle opener.

Everyone is using chopsticks, deboning knives, and patting the bottom of bottles.

After a lot of effort, I finally pulled out the cork on the red wine.

Luo Xuan raised a bottle of red wine and poured a little bit into everyone's bowls.

I don’t care about sobering up or not sobering up.

No matter what utensils are used.

Everyone raised their bowls and each of them took a devout sip...

"puff--"

"Uh-"

"puff--"

At first, everyone thought that since the red wine was from Ji Xuyuan's stock, they all thought that it was in stock.

That must be something very expensive and very good.

I never expected that,

As soon as everyone drank together, they all sprayed mouthfuls of red wine onto the ground!

What is this?

It tastes really bad!

Zhou Laoer wiped his mouth with a look of disgust on his face: "It tastes terrible, sour and not sweet at all."

Aunt Zhang frowned and said, "Is this expired? It has gone rancid..."

Peng Zhikun also shook his head, "This wine has already become sour. I think if I keep it for a while, it will turn into vinegar, and I can make do with it..."

Aunt Qi raised the red wine bottle and looked at it over and over again, "This wine is not good, not even this bottle is good.

For holding soy sauce, this cap is also laborious, not as convenient as Luo Xuan, your Wuliangye wine bottle."

Luo Xuan took a sip of red wine.

After seeing everyone's reactions, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Sure enough!

Anything beyond the scope of everyone’s knowledge is not considered a good thing.

By the same token, in the future, when you do things by yourself, you must conform to everyone’s thinking habits and cognition.

Otherwise, good intentions may not necessarily lead to good things.

Even good things can turn into bad things...

This New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous. Everyone was very happy and satisfied.

But it's also very slow.

Just because during this period, everyone celebrates the New Year and there is a custom of "night vigil".

At least one person at home must stay up around the fire until dawn.

No carnival, no party.

The members of the production team, who were seriously lacking in entertainment activities, had no choice but to talk around the fire on this night.

Or when calling friends, everyone is stamping their feet from the cold and exhaling bursts of white steam from their mouths.

Then we sit around and play long cards together.

1 cent is the bottom, 2 cents is the top, and 8 cents is the top.

After all the hard work, my face was red and my neck was thick. The winning or losing of the whole night was mostly within 80 cents.

Everyone relied on a small gamble to survive the long night...

However, even when playing such small cards, everyone still has to be careful.

Don't yell too loudly.

It's best to take out a thick sheet and cover the wooden door full of gaps.

Because every time it’s Chinese New Year.

From time to time, an unlucky person would be broken into by the militiamen and sent to the commune overnight to receive criticism and education...

Of course, fines will still be imposed.

Otherwise, the higher-ups are afraid that these gamblers will not have a long memory...
