By five o'clock, the dinner was cooked and a big table was full.

Wang Chongming invited Gu Xide out first, asked him to take a seat, sat beside him and sat down one by one according to the size of his generation.

Guo Yaqin was very happy. Although her son didn't spend the new year at home this year, her little daughter came back and brought her son-in-law.

Life at home is getting better and better. I think there is more and more hope in the future.

Now wait for your children to give birth to grandchildren and grandchildren, and your life will be complete.

Wang Chongming stood up with a glass of wine and said a few toast and auspicious words. Everyone stood up and wished each other a happy New Year!

Wang Chongming thought of Gu Xide's age and whispered to him, "Gu, just be free. Don't care about us."

"Good!" Gu Sid smiled. The doctor did say he couldn't drink. It was like a symbolic sip.

"Gu Lao, you eat!" Wang Chongming said hello. Gu Xide has the largest generation here. The elderly can only eat when the younger generation raises chopsticks first.

Gu Xide nodded. Knowing that everyone was polite, he was not modest. He held up his chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of tofu first.

"Come on, everyone eat. You're welcome!" Guo Yaqin said hello and sandwiched a pig elbow for Guo Xiang. "This stew is rotten. Eat more. You used to like it best."

"Thank you, mom!" Guo Xiang smiled.

Everyone started, and Guo Yazheng was full of praise. "Sister, I didn't expect your cooking to rise again. This dish is really delicious."

"It was made by Aunt Zhang, not me..." Guo Yaqin said.

"No wonder!" Guo Yazheng smiled and looked at Aunt Zhang, "Aunt Zhang, your craft is very good. Teach me another day, and I'll learn some tricks from you."

"How much can you eat alone?" Guo Yaqin laughed at her. In fact, she also hoped that she could find someone to marry and live a good life.

"Who says a person can't live a fine life? I have a good time. " Guo Yazheng skimmed his mouth.

Aunt Zhang was surprised. She didn't expect that there were people who were not married like herself. Seeing that Guo Yazheng was not young, did she get hurt when she was young?

"Of course I do. I can come home whenever you are free." Aunt Zhang smiled.

"Aunt Zhang is better!" Guo Yazheng deliberately stared at her sister and raised her eyebrows at her.

Guo Xiangqin smiled helplessly. "Eat more today. It's poor enough to live alone."

"Good!" Guo Yazheng smiled. In fact, she knew that her sister loved her.

Guo Xiang looked at Gu Zhennan, who was silent around him. "What do you like to eat? You're welcome at my house?"

"No." Gu Zhennan smiles.

Guo Xiang gave him a piece of mutton. "Come on, try this. It's badly stewed. You should like it with pepper."

"Good!" Gu Zhennan ate it. Her daughter-in-law said that there must be nothing wrong with delicious food. She can pick more than herself.

Several elders are very pleased to see that the young couple have a good relationship.

Gu Xide is an elder, but his appetite is not so good when he is old. Wang Chongming doesn't dare to cook for him. For fear that he won't digest, he asks him if he wants to eat a certain dish. If he nods, he will cook some for him.

When the food was almost ready, Guo Yaqin brought up the dumplings.

Originally, the tradition was to eat dumplings after 12 o'clock, which means "Jiaozi at the new year's Eve" and the first day of the second year.

However, older people usually can't keep their age, so they eat the dumplings in advance.

Guo Yaqin personally filled a bowl of dumplings for Gu Xide, Guo Xiang and Gu Zhennan. "Try it quickly. How's the taste?"

"This is still the stuffing I chopped. I have to have a good taste." Guo Xiang smiled.

Seeing several people opposite looking at themselves, I couldn't help touching my face, "there's something on my face?"

"No..." Guo Yaqin smiled unnaturally. "Tell us when you taste it."

Suddenly Gu Zhennan on the side said, "what's the matter?" Guo Xiang asked hurriedly.

Gu Zhennan spits out half a dumpling with a coin on it.

"Ah, did you eat this?" Guo Xiang was surprised, "it seems that you can make a fortune next year!"

Everyone laughed and said in unison, "Congratulations, Congratulations!"

Gu Zhennan chuckled. It seemed that he had good luck in the coming year, and then ate again.

Guo Xiang was a little strange when he ate the third one. "How is this dumpling sweet?"

"Look what's the filling?" Wang chuyun asked with a smile.

Guo Xiang picked up the half bitten dumpling and said, "it looks like bean paste. How can it taste like jujube?"

"I know. It's filled with red dates and chestnuts. You're going to have a baby early!" Guo Yazheng smiled.

Guo Xiang's face turned red. His mother must have deliberately. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidence that he and Gu Zhennan ate hundreds of dumplings. There was only one of each kind of special filling. It was really one in a hundred. How did his mother pick it?

Did she mark it?

Guo Xiang looks at Guo Yaqin. Her face is loving and her heart is warm.

"My stuffing doesn't seem the same." Gu Sid picked up his dumplings and looked at them.

"Grandpa Gu, this is peanut stuffing. You will live a long life!" Wang chuyun said with a smile.

Gu Sid was very happy. Although it was just a statement, he felt comfortable.

"What does peanut mean?" Gu Zhennan asked Guo Xiang quietly.

"Peanuts are also called long-lived fruits. Naturally, they mean health and longevity. Moreover, peanuts have many nuts, which means more meaning, more children and more blessings, and more children and grandchildren. That's why grandpa is so happy." Guo Xiang said.

Gu Zhennan suddenly realized, "it seems that I have to work harder."

Guo Xiang: "..." what meat words do you say when you eat.

Besides, now that family planning is so strict, it's a little difficult to have a full house of children and grandchildren.

After dinner, the women helped clean up, and the men drank tea and watched TV in the hall.

After cleaning up, Gu Zhennan took Guo Xiang to the yard to set off fireworks.

"When did I buy it? Why don't I know?" Guo Xiang was surprised.

"I bought it two days ago and kept it in the car." Gu Zhennan said.

"How dare you put it in the car? Not afraid of an accident? " Guo Xiang's eyes widened.

Gu Zhennan smiled, "it doesn't matter if there is no open fire in such a cold day."

Gu Zhennan put the fireworks in the yard, arranged a row, took a lighter and lit them one by one.

Just listen to the sound of "bang, bang -" and then "chirp", and the fireworks darted up into the sky.

Then it exploded in mid air.

Fireworks are colorful, blooming like flowers, streamer, beautiful.

"How beautiful!" Guo Xiang looked up at the fireworks. It was the first time in his life that someone set off fireworks for himself.

She looked at Gu Zhennan. He held his hand tightly and raised his head slightly. The flickering fireworks reflected his handsome face. The original cold outline seemed to be much softer.

Her heart was warm and clenched the man's hand. Fortunately, she didn't give up.

Everyone looked out from the hall. Fireworks are so beautiful.

Although my life has been better in the past two years, I have no mind to set off fireworks and haven't bought it for the new year.

The young couple are considerate.

It seems that you can buy some and put them back every year.
