Chapter 203

Li Jinmei called out displeased: "don't squeeze! Don't squeeze! Don't worry. Wait until the people in front of you have tasted the wine. Queue up at the back first. It's fast. "

"What's more, sake is only 30 jin in total. If you buy three jin, do others want to drink it? Each family is only allowed to buy two catties of liquor and three and a half catties of turbid liquor. If there is one left in the end, let's talk about it! "

"In the end, if you have asked your family if you want to buy wine, don't let your mother-in-law disagree and return the wine. Let's declare that we won't return it first!"

As soon as Li Jinmei's words fell, these people ran to the back of the line one after another, saying "OK, OK" and "all agreed".

As soon as the people in front heard the limited number of each family, they were relieved. Even if they came late, they still had wine to buy at the end of the line.

Taking advantage of everyone's presence, Li Jinmei said: "after an hour, if there is wine surplus and no one comes back to buy it, then if you want to buy more before, you can come back and sell as much as you have left."

"Do you give me a discount?"

"No

"Why not?"

"It's not worrying about selling. It's good to keep it at home." Li Jinmei gave the man a white look.

Not every family plans to buy three or five Jin. Some of them can only buy a little less food. Others don't like drinking too much, so they just buy half Jin or one jin.

Because there was an example of buying seeds with Xu Qing before, and we didn't dare to fool around with bad food. Li Jinmei checked and weighed the potatoes and sweet potatoes before taking them. It doesn't matter whether they are big or small. It's ok if they're not bad.

A few of them didn't go away even after they had bought. They were staring at each other, waiting for everyone to buy them, and then they wrapped up the rest.

The patriarch bought two Jin of sake and three jin of turbid wine. An hour later, he came to buy another Jin of sake. He was also happy without wine.

By the time everyone had bought the wine, the two jars were sold out.

A few days later, Xu Qing took out all the dry goods he could take out on the pretext that he went to the cave where the grain was hidden. Then he and Li Jinmei and Hao Wei began to make new year's goods and snacks.

At the end of autumn, the hawthorn trees and red jujube trees in Xuqing space all had fruits. Now they are all ripe. The red hawthorn is sour and sweet. It's best to make ice sugar gourd.

Five days before New Year's Eve, Li Jinmei began to take down the sheets, quilt covers, etc. in her home and wash them. After washing, she directly dried them with fire.

In the space, Xu Qing and Li Changting slaughtered all the chickens, ducks and rabbits that they could kill at home, but they took out all the bad ones. Especially the ducks, it's hard to explain the source. They just killed two ducks, and it doesn't matter whether they took them or not.

Finally, they discussed and took out three chickens, five rabbits and a litter of six rabbits.

The chicken is smoked and the rabbit is fresh. In order to have meat on the noodles in the future, Xu Qing brought out six new born rabbits, saying that Li Changting brought two rabbit nests.

These six weaned rabbits became the treasures of the family. Li Jinmei made a nest with straw in a bamboo basket and kept it in the corner of hui'er's and Xiao Meizi's Kang.

Huier and xiaomeizi's cave is the warmest. Six rabbits adapt well and eat whatever they give.

The day before New Year's Eve, everyone began to clean the cave, and then took turns to boil water and take a bath.

Bathing in winter is a very troublesome thing, in order not to get sick and can not be perfunctory, so every time we take a bath we are in groups, a lot of people, around the steaming heat, the bath is not so cold.

Xu Qing's family has a bath bucket, you don't have to go to the crowded bathhouse. Once the Kang is burned, there is another brazier beside it. It's warm in the cave. It's not cold to take a bath, but it takes a little time to wash one by one.

Xu Qing and Li Changting didn't wash until the evening. In fact, they took a bath in the space and cleaned the room by the way. What they should wash and what they should dry.

On New Year's Eve, Hao Wei, Li Jinmei and Cao Laoliu begin to prepare new year's Eve dinner. Xu Ying stares at the fire basin and bakes the clothes they have changed and washed one by one.

Li Changting wrote a pair of couplets and pasted them on the entrance of the cave together with Xu Qing. He also pasted an inverted "Fu" on the curtain of the cave.

Duanmu ring is hard to come out. He nests on the hot Kang and plays with two children to fight the landlord.

Noodles in the morning, with potatoes, sauerkraut and beef, everyone has a dry bowl.

At noon, dumplings are made and glutinous rice is steamed. Jujube, medlar, raisin and brown sugar are put in glutinous rice, which is sweet and glutinous.

In the evening, we have a big meal, including stewed beef with potatoes, braised rabbit, fried smoked chicken, steamed hand shredded fish Xu Qing also fried sweet potato balls and chips that children like to eat.

Li Jinmei raised her glass: "come on, I wish us good weather next year, grain full warehouse, move out of the cave to live in a big house as soon as possible!"

Let's drink to each other. We are looking forward to next year and enjoying the delicious food and happiness of this moment.

Except for Li Changting, duanmuxiang and Cao Laoliu, all the others drank wine. Even Huier and xiaomeizi licked two small glasses of wine, and those who celebrated the Chinese new year went with them.

A group of people were eating hot on the Kang. Xu Qing dug the egg soup with a spoon and fell asleep on the Kang half way after eating. When it was almost early in the morning, he was woken up by Li Changting.The table has been cleaned up, and now a table of mahjong is in front of her.

"To fight?" Duanmu ring asked her.

Xu Qing stretched and nodded.

Here four play mahjong, the rest go to play cards, the two children go to bed early, and the remaining several adults spend time and watch the night.

Finally, Xu Qingshi was so sleepy that he was carried back to sleep in the cave by Li Changting within two hours.

New year's day.

As soon as Xu Qing opened his eyes, he saw Li Changting staring at her.

"Happy New Year ~"

after Xu Qinggang finished, his lips were sealed, and he was fascinated by a passionate kiss in the morning. It seems that this year's day must be sweet and happy!

Li Changting looked at the person who was still giggling. He could not help holding his face and kissing again.

After a long delay, they got up to dress and wash, and then went to pay New Year's greetings to their sister and brother-in-law. Let's celebrate the new year with each other and say auspicious words.

Now money is useless. The two children's red envelope has become that they can eat an extra bunch of sugar gourd today. In this way, Mei Zi is also very happy.

After the new year, everyone sat around the table to eat Tangyuan, six Tangyuan for each, 66 Dashun, and then began to have breakfast.

When it was almost noon, Li Changting and Xu Qing went to pay New Year's greetings to the patriarch. At this time, they had to pay New Year's greetings to the patriarch. Xu Qing was pinching the past.

At present, in an extraordinary period, we can only give up visiting relatives for dinner. After paying respects to each other for the new year, we can send some new year's goods to those who have a good relationship.

Xu Qing took a bag of new year's goods and came back when he left. Their family was the patriarch's family, and there was nothing else to do after he left.
