The street was very lively, with red lanterns all over the street. There were people making candied haws, people making popcorn, people frying peanuts and melon seeds, and there were many children running around on the street, and their laughter spread far and wide.
Zhang Zhonghua was very happy when he saw the lively scene. Scenes like traveling to the previous world are rare in the city or even in the countryside.
Although my home is relatively deserted because I have only myself, I still have a good relationship with my neighbors in the courtyard.
This is also the reason why Zhang Zhonghua maintains his relationship with He Yuzhu and the others. After all, a person is too lonely.
Zhang Zhonghua walked around the street for a while, bought some firecrackers and then went home. Besides, there were too many people on the street.
After returning home, Zhang Zhonghua began to decorate his home, hanging lanterns, pasting couplets, and window grilles!
When it comes to posting Spring Festival couplets, different places have different customs. There are those who post Spring Festival couplets, some who post them, some who post them in their thirties, and some who even get up on the first day of the new year.
Here in Sijiucheng, thirty children put up Spring Festival couplets, and they have to be put up in the morning. They cannot be torn off after they are put on, and they will fall off by themselves. The later the couplets are dropped, the better, so they must be put up firmly.
But there are no thirty-year-olds this year, so I can only post twenty-nine.
Thanks to Zhang Zhonghua's efforts, the entire home was decorated with joy, and the New Year's atmosphere was instantly felt.
…
…
"Xiaohua!"
After finishing the decoration, Zhang Zhonghua was reading in the room, when He Yuzhu opened the door and walked in.
"Zhuzi, what's going on?"
"There is also a New Year's Eve dinner for lunch, so don't prepare it and come to my place to eat."
"You two and Sister Yuyu can just eat together. Why do you want me to eat?"
"It's not just you, the uncle, the aunt, the old lady, and you. Anyway, you can spend time with me alone. By the way, Xiao Qin, who is raining at noon, is also here."
"Okay, I'll be there in a moment."
"Bring a few bottles of your good wine."
"I think inviting me to celebrate the New Year with you is a lie, but worrying about my wine is real."
Before Zhang Zhonghua could finish speaking, He Yuzhu had already left the door.
When it was almost noon, Zhang Zhonghua walked towards He Yuzhu's house carrying several bottles of Xifeng wine and a bottle of Maotai.
Seeing Zhang Zhonghua's arrival, He Yuchen, who was chatting with his partner in the room, immediately stood up to greet him.
"Xiaohua, are you here?"
As he said this, He Yuyu took the wine from Zhang Zhonghua's hand.
"Sister Yuyu, Brother Qin, when did you come?"
Zhang Zhonghua followed He Yuyu and sat down at the table.
"It's been here a long time ago."
"How's it going? Has Brother Qin become a regular employee?"
Zhang Zhonghua turned to look at Qin Chen.
"I have become a regular employee. I have to thank you, Xiaohua, for this!"
He Yuyu kicked Qin Chen with his toes.
"Yes, brother Xiaohua, I have to thank you for this. I went to Qi Suo's place last time, and he became a regular employee very quickly."
Qin Chen, who was kicked, immediately expressed his gratitude to Zhang Zhonghua.
"What does this have to do with me? I'm just helping you to bring something with you. If you can become a regular employee, it's all because of your own good work."
Zhang Zhonghua sat at the table with his legs crossed, took out a handful of melon seeds, nibbled on them, and said something that was neither salty nor bland.
He Yuyu and Qin Chen were stunned when they heard this, and then realized that although the change was due to Zhang Zhonghua, Zhang Zhonghua really didn't say anything.
"That's right, that's right, it has nothing to do with Brother Xiaohua."
Qin Chen understood that he was within the system after all.
He Yuyu was confused when she heard it, and Qin Chen whispered a few words in her ear, and then she suddenly realized.
"Xiaohua, you've learned too much."
After hearing his partner's explanation, He Yuyu looked at Zhang Zhonghua with some confusion.
"You just learned bad things!"
Zhang Zhonghua couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and retorted.
Just when He Yuyu was about to continue saying something, He Yuzhu's voice suddenly came.
"Yu Yu, Xiao Qin comes in to serve the dishes, and Xiao Hua goes to invite the old lady."
He Yuyu could only shut up helplessly.
Soon everyone arrived.
There were eight people in total: the first uncle, the first aunt, He Yuyu, Qin Chen, He Yuzhu, Qin Jingru, the deaf old lady and Zhang Zhonghua himself.
He Yuzhu cooked a large table of dishes, which was no worse than the day he went on a blind date.
…
…
After lunch, Zhang Zhonghua went home and continued reading.
The sky is getting dark, and every family has begun to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.
On New Year's Eve, every family gets together and eats dumplings, which is an indispensable part of Chinese New Year in the north.
The chef tonight is of course He Yuzhu, who cooked a large table of delicious dishes. He Yuzhu, the first master, Zhang Zhonghua and others exchanged glasses and drank wine and chatted.
The aunt, the old lady, and He Yuyu chatted with Qin Jingru while eating, not mentioning their family's shortcomings.
Not to mention the He family here, the Jia family on the other side is also having New Year's Eve dinner.
Mrs. Jia Zhang and Banggan were eating the little meat in the dish quickly.
Qin Huairu and Xiao Danghuaihua couldn't insert their chopsticks at all.
"Mom, please leave some Banggian for Xiaodang and Sophora japonica."
Jia Zhang was dissatisfied: "What kind of meat do two losers eat? How do they divide such a small amount of meat? How long has it been since they had something delicious? And they are growing taller."
Qin Huairu was speechless and thought to himself: "I know your grandson is growing up, but why don't you use money to support him? And if you hadn't insisted on cooking half of the meat two days ago, how could there be so little left?"
But it was hard for her to tell her, otherwise she would not have a good day today.
…
…
The New Year's Eve dinner was finished soon. There is no TV now, and there is no Spring Festival Gala, so it is relatively fast to watch and eat.
After eating, everyone walked out of the house, and the children were chasing each other and playing, and the yard became lively again.
Zhang Zhonghua just returned to the middle hospital after seeing off the deaf old lady.
Then he saw He Yuzhu waving his hand to call Qin Huairu's three children.
Zhang Zhonghua suddenly remembered that He Yuzhu made trouble on the first day of the Lunar New Year!
I remember that early in the morning on the first day of junior high school in Yuanli, He Yuzhu ordered Banggan, Xiaodang, and Huaihua's three children to go to Xu Damao and force him to get lucky money. If he didn't give it, he would curse him.
As a result, Bangge, this little scoundrel, imitated everyone, and everyone wanted to do it, and finally the people in the courtyard became excited.
"Pillar!"
Zhang Zhonghua called He Yuzhu loudly, startling He Yuzhu who was about to say something.
"Xiaohua, why are you so loud? You scared me."
He Yuzhu complained.
"Come here, I have something to say."
Seeing Zhang Zhonghua's serious expression, He Yuzhu came over reluctantly.
"What are you doing, Xiaohua? I'm looking for Banggeng and they are doing something wrong!"
"Is there something wrong with them? What are you going to do to cause trouble?"
"Well, no, what you said means that I am planning to cause any harm?"
Hearing Zhang Zhonghua's words, He Yuzhu said something dissatisfied, but his expression showed that he felt guilty.
"I don't know you yet?"
Zhang Zhonghua dismissed He Yuzhu with disdain.
"Hehehe, I still can't hide it from you, I'm going to let Bangge and the others..."
He Yuzhu smiled sheepishly, and then explained his plan.
