Chapter 92：

No matter what time of year, the happiest Chinese New Year is the children. It is rare to have snacks and meat to eat, and they can set off firecrackers and play to their heart’s content.

The children at home became more lively after they got together. Everyone contributed their favorite toys. The onigiri and pillar toys were put together. They brought all kinds of chess pieces and pictures. Xiaodoubao’s small school bag contained their own. All kinds of babies, but his baby is only suitable for his age group. Dad said that the two-year-old Xiaodoubao has grown up, and he has made all kinds of complicated puzzles for him. If he can't solve some of them, he has to find his brothers. Help, Xiaobao and Dabao's most toys are all kinds of slingshots and shuttlecocks.

The little rice ball distributed their pictures to them, and they kept it to play.

In the past few days, Li Yufeng plucked the hair of the big **** and made them a batch of shuttlecocks. After the work of sticking to the spring, the five little boys gathered around to play games. The yard was full of their laughter.

It took a long time for Han Cheng to go out. Su Xiaoxiao asked him where he went. Han Cheng thought about it and felt that the husband and wife should be honest and right. He took her back to the room and transferred Yang Mei’s parents here. Su Xiaoxiao alone Say it.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes widened in disbelief: "I asked my mother the other day why the yard has been abandoned for so long. My mother said it was an intellectual from the city, but I never thought it was Yang Mei's family, this Is there such a coincidence in the world?"

Han Cheng put his arms around Su Xiaoxiao and kissed her head: "You can know what you have in mind, you don't need to tell our parents, and don't say it out, lest simple things complicate, let them do what they did before and how they do now. , they also mean the same, maybe they will go back to the city after a while, and it will be difficult to meet in the future, they think Xiaobao is good, and they want to teach Xiaobao to read, will you feel uncomfortable?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook his head: "How come, the university professor taught Xiaobao that Xiaobao earned it, we can't ask for it."

It is true that in two years, many intellectuals will be able to take off their hats and return to the city one after another, especially since there is nothing wrong with this in itself, and the time to return to the city will only be earlier.

Han Cheng shook his head and said, "No, smile, I'm not asking about teaching Xiaobao, I'm saying that Yang Mei's family is so close to our parents, will you feel uncomfortable?"

Su Xiaoxiao was a little speechless. She was not a Virgin, but she really didn't feel uncomfortable. If Yang Mei Niang was the best Yang Tao Niang, it would be really annoying. She didn't need to say that her father had already kicked people out of the production team. How could they be so nice to them? Her mother often said that their family were all scholars who were knowledgeable, polite and disciplined.

People wouldn't make any trouble, and she wouldn't be able to tolerate ordinary neighbors who were in distress. If Hancheng was so cold that Yangmei would never get along with Lao Yue's family, then she should be chilled.

It's not that she doesn't know how Han Cheng treats her. She spoils her, pampers her, and always talks to her gently. Especially after she was pregnant, she came back from get off work and took care of all the housework. She went into the kitchen more often than he did. Less, buying her a watch and a coat with the bonus is a trivial matter. She manages all the income of the family. She never interferes with what she wants to buy and eat. , Their whole family likes Hancheng very much. In Li Yufeng's words, after she got married, there was another son in the family. She was really worth it.

Su Xiaoxiao hugged Han Cheng and rubbed her chest: "Han Cheng, I'll tell you if I'm not feeling well, I'll have a very comfortable life after I marry you, I'm looking forward to my belly now. The baby comes out quickly, and after unloading the goods, I can eat whatever I want."

Han Cheng held his lover on his lap and kissed her cheek: "Just thinking about eating?"

Su Xiaoxiao recalled the past and couldn't help but smiled knowingly: "I married you just to eat meat, did you forget?"

Han Cheng also smiled: "I didn't forget, I still said that, follow me to eat meat, take care of rice, and take care of fullness."

The couple rubbed their noses and smiled at each other.

The old Su family had never tried so many people to have a New Year's Eve dinner together. Su Weimin made the decision. Today, he didn't drink the local wine he made himself, and opened the bottle of wine that Hancheng brought to celebrate.

The New Year's Eve dinner of Lao Su's family can't be compared with the various delicacies of mountains and seas on the table in the 21st century, but in Sujia Village, it is already an excellent meal to eat meat on the New Year's Eve, various dried bamboo shoots, dried mushrooms, fungus The dried squid and the dried squid brought back by Su Xiaoxiao are put into a large pot, and the marinated chicken is placed on top. Add enough water and put it on the charcoal stove to simmer slowly. The side dishes at the bottom gradually absorb the chicken. The aroma, the longer it is simmered, the better it tastes.

This way of eating is similar to the simple version of Poon Choi in the 21st century. When the weather is cold, the whole family gathers around to eat such a pot.

Women and children don't drink alcohol. Su Xiaoxiao asked Li Yufeng to grind some corn syrup with a small stone mill at home, and put a little sugar when cooking. The whole family likes to drink this.

Su Weimin took the lead in raising the bowl and said with emotion: "This year is a good year. The rice and fish ponds have a good harvest. The pigs raised in the team are also very fat. The big guys have divided a lot of fish and meat. Our production team is the only one in the commune. Every family can eat a bite of meat during the Chinese New Year, and we will soon add two more members to our family, so I won’t say anything more, and we wish the next year will be better and better!”

The children also picked up their bowls and said in unison, "The days are getting better and better!"

Su Xiaoxiao picked up her bowl, bent her eyes and said, "Father, after you've been the captain for a long time, you'll be able to speak well. I wish our whole family good health and all the best."

The clever little rice ball had just finished posting the Spring Festival, and he still remembered the words on it, and immediately said: "The harvest is prosperous, and the Chinese New Year is prosperous!"

Xiaobao also said: "Congratulations on the new year, there is more than every year!"

Several children said festive words one after another, even the only illiterate Xiaodoubao said: "Good luck~~~"

That long little tail sound is so cute, the whole family laughed so hard that they could not see their teeth.

Su Weimin said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay, let's eat."

The children cheered: "Eat!"

…

After a round and round New Year's Eve dinner that was not sumptuous but hot, it was time for the children to set off firecrackers.

Although the weather was clear, the day after the snow melted was colder than the day it snowed. Su Xiaoxiao brought the fire cage, and Han Cheng and Han Cheng took the children to the willow tree beside the river in front of the door to prepare fireworks and firecrackers.

The two sisters-in-law also came out, and Li Yufeng said with a few lit incense sticks in her hand: "Use this point, Han Cheng be careful, run away when you light it, and the children cover their ears and stay away."

Except for Dabao and Xiaobao, it was the first time for the other children to participate in this kind of activity, and they were still a little scared. They all stood far away. Su Xiaoxiao was also afraid. Said: "This thing is easy to blow up, and it hurts. Can you see it from a distance?"

The children jumped and said, "Got it!"

The sound of firecrackers rang out one after another in the distance. Han Cheng ordered a small platoon, and there was a "crackling" sound a few times. The children were all happy enough. Shoot non-stop.

Hancheng lit another firework, and with a "whoosh" sound, the flames jumped to the top of the weeping willow and exploded with the first "bang", lighting up the night of the New Year's Eve in Sujia Village.

When the neighbors heard the sound, they walked out of the house and looked at the fleeting fireworks in the air from a distance.

Yang Nanhuai's family stood in the alley, watching the two youngest children from a distance while the fireworks lit up the night sky.

The slightly larger rice ball stood at his father's feet, pulling his father's trousers and didn't know what to say. Han Cheng rubbed the child's head and bent down to talk to him;

The smaller Xiaodou was wrapped in Su Xiaoxiao's arms. The gentle Su Xiaoxiao pointed at the fireworks and didn't know what to say to the child. The child squinted with joy, hugged her head and kissed her on the cheek.

Feeling the sight from her side, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly turned her head to look at the alley, just in time to see a family of three standing there.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then raised her sweet little pear vortex and nodded in that direction, and turned Xiaodoubao around so that he was facing there.

Dong Mingyue blushed instantly when she saw Xiaodoubao's appearance, and politely nodded back to Su Xiaoxiao, Yang Nanhuai and Yang Lin also nodded to Su Xiaoxiao, and then the family of three turned around in tacit understanding, Yang Lin Supporting the two staggering old men, they disappeared step by step into the dark alley...

Su Xiaoxiao turned around and just met Han Cheng's line of sight, and the couple tacitly looked at each other and smiled.

Su Xiaoxiao is not sad, because she knows that such days will not last long, and the two old people will soon return to their original lives and return to the university to teach and educate people to enjoy their old age.

This year, there will not be a large number of fireworks and firecrackers. It is impossible to buy more, let alone put them all in one night. In many places, they are not even allowed to be released. It is okay to put a little in Sujia Village for the next festival.

According to the custom of Sujia Village, it is actually to fight for who can get the first shot at 0:00 on the first day of the new year to grab a good luck.

There is no custom of keeping the year old in Sujia Village. In previous years, Su Zhenzhong and Su Zhenhua brothers waited until midnight to set off the firecrackers and then went back to sleep. The children went to bed early and did not wait until midnight, so they should be released earlier.

Other fireworks and firecrackers should be reserved for the second day of the new year, the seventh day of the first day of the new year, and the Lantern Festival, and then put them separately.

When the children were playing outside, Li Yufeng had already put the New Year's money under each of their beds. Su Xiaoxiao and Zhang Chunying still had a baby in their stomachs, and Li Yufeng didn't forget to put one under their pillows, Li Yufeng thought. When Han Cheng came back for the New Year in the first year, he also put a good intention under his pillow.

Su Xiaoxiao habitually picked up the pillow before going to bed and patted the dust on it. A red envelope fell, and she was stunned for a while, then she picked it up and raised it at Han Cheng. She was so happy that she had forgotten how long she hadn't received it. I have passed the New Year's red envelope of the elders.

"Look Hancheng, the lucky money my mother gave me, I have grown up so much, and my mother actually gave me the lucky money."

Han Cheng likes Xiao Liwu, who runs out when Su Xiaoxiao is happy: "Maybe it was given to you by your mother for the baby in your womb."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't believe it, thinking that her mother gave it to her, she also picked up Hancheng's pillow and looked at it, and sure enough, another red envelope fell out, she was so happy that she couldn't see her teeth: "Just say my mother gave it to me, look Well, you have it too."

Han Cheng was also stunned. Since his immediate family members were gone, he hadn't received New Year's money for many years.

"Thanks to you, my mother must have pressed one for me when she gave it to you."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded and put the red envelope back: "My eldest brother and second brother, they definitely don't have it."

It really made Su Xiaoxiao guess right, Su Zhenzhong and Su Zhenhua did not.

Han Cheng didn't know where he changed a red envelope and handed it to Su Xiaoxiao: "The New Year's money for you, Xiaoxiao Happy New Year!"

Su Xiaoxiao widened her eyes and asked in surprise, "When did you prepare it?"

Han Cheng didn't hide it from her: "Just now."

Su Xiaoxiao found out that he actually took the red envelope that was originally stuck on Xiaobao's desk, and said with his eyes bent: "In our house, the red paper can't be torn until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. If my mother knew. I will definitely scold you."

Han Cheng rubbed her head: "It's okay, mother is reluctant to scold me, I'll just find one and post it tomorrow." Rarely made her happy.

Su Xiaoxiao was really happy, she stood up and put her arms around Han Cheng's neck, and kissed him on the mouth: "Han Cheng, Happy New Year!"

Han Cheng kissed her back: "Happy New Year!"

My smile is always happy.
