Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 426 New Year's Eve Dinner

"Master, mother!"

Qin Huairu's voice came from the door, and Yi Zhonghai, who had recovered to normal, hurriedly opened the door.

"Huairu, what's the matter?"

"Master, it's just a new year. I used to bother you with the aunt. I told Zhuzi that I will go to my house this year. You and the aunt will come over later."

Standing at the door, Qin Huairu's smiling face became rounded, and Yi Zhonghai stared at her and also smiled.

"Okay, we'll be there in a while."

"Okay, I'll go back and make dumplings."

After Qin Huairu left, Yi Zhonghai looked at Shazhu's house again and smiled.

……

Yangjiazhuang, brigade headquarters.

A pot was lit, firewood was crackling, tables were pieced together, benches were placed on both sides of the tables, and the old man was sitting with a cigarette pouch, watching the lively scene in front of him.

The little daughters-in-law in big flowered jackets gathered together, talking about who is about to have a baby; the busy women were fiddling with the water in the pot, talking about whether it should be cooked; the elders were chatting, It seems to be pointing the country.

Yang Xiaotao mixed in with a group of women, holding a spoon in his hand, constantly stir-frying the large intestines in the pot, he was good at this.

Ran Qiuye was with a group of young daughter-in-laws. These young daughter-in-laws who had just married into the village knew that Yangjiazhuang was better off than their village before they married, but they never expected that the New Year's Eve would kill pigs and have such a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner , It’s simply the life of the landlord’s family.

Like Ran Qiuye, they are all yearning for a better life.

The running children kept throwing bamboo knots into the bonfire outside, and then there was the sound of burning. "Xiao Tao, where did you learn this skill?"

Yang Dazhuang's daughter-in-law smelled the aroma in the pot, and she couldn't help asking, and several women on the side also pricked up their ears.

"That's right, the food you cook here is better than those of us who spend all day around the pot. There must be some secret."

"There is no teaching for this, it's all my own thinking."

"Besides, it's not unusual for many chefs to be male these days."

Yang Xiaotao was perfunctory, he couldn't say it was given by the system, maybe they didn't know what the system was after mentioning the system.

The women were all disappointed, but they looked at the pot without blinking, remembering every step Yang Xiaotao made.

Pieces of finger-sized pork in the pot next to it were tumbling in the pot, and there were pieces of cabbage leaves in the clear water pork.

In the distance, two pots were steaming, pig bones were thrown in, and soup was boiling.

The whole yard smells like meat.

Mrs. Yang and others got together. The wood and bamboo that Yang Xiaotao said inspired them. The waterway does not have to be fixed. It can be dismantled anytime and anywhere with a section of bamboo. From this point of view, it looks like bamboo better.

The few people quickly reached an agreement, and then began to discuss where to get so many bamboos. After all, the land has been reclaimed these years, and there are not many suitable bamboo forests in the village.

Finally, Yang Dazhuang thought of Fatty Ding. This guy is the director of the grain department.

I plan to ask this guy for help after the new year.

"It's out."

Yang Xiaotao put the large intestine into a large basin with a spoon, and someone took the basin away immediately.

"Next, fried pig's blood."

Soon, pieces of dark red pig's blood were brought over, and the pan was washed with oil.

slam
When the pig's blood is put into the pot, there is another burst of aroma.

"Next."

clang clang

In the eyes of everyone, Yang Xiaotao and Yang Dazhuang rang the bell together. As the bell rang at twelve o'clock, time entered the new year.

Finally, everyone sat back to their original places.

The men gather together and the women sit at the same table.

The elders are in the front, and the younger ones are in the back row.

Men drink, women drink tea.

Children are not counted, and where there is a loophole, they will take advantage of it.

The soup in the pot was still boiling, but it was no match for the lively crowd.

Smelling the aroma in the basin, the tempting pieces of meat under the lamp kept swallowing saliva.

However, everyone still suppressed their psychological desires and looked to the front, where the oldest person in the village sat.

Mr. Yang and his elder brother were sitting together. On the table were all boiled pieces of meat, and several dishes were easy to chew. Other than that, there were Erhe noodles steamed buns, and of course there were some salty duck eggs.

In front of each of them was a black bowl filled with white and green wine.

"Come on, let's celebrate the New Year together."

Grandpa Yang held up the wine bowl, and the juniors below followed suit. The men held the wine bowls, and the women held the cups, which were filled with water.

Yang Xiaotao was with Yang Dazhuang and the others. There was no meat on the table, only a pot of bones, and then there were steamed buns with Erhe noodles and stick pancakes.

In no one's hand is a large bowl of broth with greens floating on top.

At this time, it's time to compete for teeth. Whoever has good teeth will eat bones and eat meat, and whoever has poor teeth will drink soup.

The surrounding tables are full of young and strong men, and they are naturally bold when drinking.

Just after this sip, there was no shortage of wine in the bowl.

There is no way, there are too many people, and after the division, one person will only have two drinks.

Gotta save it.

As the elders moved their chopsticks, everyone below let go to eat.

Chinese New Year tonight, I can eat enough.

Ran Qiuye sat with a few pregnant women in the village, and they had a common topic, discussing how to raise children in the future and what to pay attention to.

The food on their table is very delicate, not only the pork belly and pig intestine copied by Yang Xiaotao, but also specially prepared salted duck eggs and apples.

These were all contributed by Ran Qiuye, and the whole village couldn't stop praising them.

On the other side, the women also gathered together, eating and drinking.

Some older people, who are obviously smiling, always feel that they are crying.

Satisfied tears.

"Father, this matter must be done as soon as possible."

Holding chopsticks, Xu Damao picked a piece of pork and threw it into his mouth.

When I went back to the courtyard today, seeing what I saw, I didn’t feel like celebrating the New Year in the courtyard, so I carried pork, bought wine with money, and walked back to the village.

After walking all the way, I arrived home after dark.

The soles of my tired feet hurt.

At this time, Xu Damao missed his bicycle very much.

If you are still a projectionist, you will naturally have a bicycle.

"Do it, do it, you can do it if you say it?"

Xu's father slapped his chopsticks vigorously. If it wasn't for such a son who was looking forward to retirement in the future, he would have beaten him out with a stick.

"Old man, it's New Year's Eve."

Xu's mother persuaded from the side, and at the same time looked at Xu Damao, "Da Mao, there is nothing we can do about this matter."

"There is someone above this person who wants to find a relationship. The original Li Huaide has been transferred away. Who can we turn to?"

After hearing this, Xu Damao picked up the wine glass and drank.

"Da Mao, what do you think about this daughter-in-law?"

When Xu Damao heard this, he drank another cup, "What are you thinking, let's look for it."

"Anyway, we're young, so we're not afraid we won't find it."

Xu Damao didn't care, it's even better if he's divorced, he used to go to the countryside to find widows secretly, but now he's single, even if he's found out, it's a normal relationship and saves trouble.

But, going to the countryside is the key.

If it takes a long time, will those lonely little widows get involved with the new projectionist?

Doesn't that mean he's about to be cuckolded again?
Ok?Why again?
Xu Damao thought of Lou Xiaoe and Yang Xiaotao, "Damn it, I must take it back."

"Father, don't worry about this matter, I will do it myself."

With a fierce look in his eyes, Xu Damao put the wine glass heavily on the table. At this moment, he looked very much like Xu's father back then.

"Ok!"

Seeing this appearance, Xu's father nodded lightly, this child, after all, has gained a lot of wisdom.

Siheyuan, Jia family.

One table of food, one table of people.

The old man and the mother sat on both sides of the deaf old lady, Qin Huairu was outside, and there were two children left.

"This cabbage looks like it was made by Huai Ru."

The uncle pointed to the cabbage fried meat, and said with a smile, when Silly Zhu heard the words, "Master, how did you see that?"

"Oh, this aunt said that we live in the yard and do things. Only Huairu is meticulous. The cabbage is picked clean and cut evenly, but evenly cut along the cabbage. I'll leave it to you, long ago Throw it in the slop bucket."

There was laughter in the house, and the deaf old lady even opened her toothless mouth, pointing at the silly pillar to live.

"Old lady, eat garlic cloves, just to appetize."

Silly Zhu held the garlic, but was snatched away by Qin Huairu, "The old lady has bad teeth, you are so bad."

There was another burst of laughter, and Sha Zhu yelled, "Cooperate with me and cook a table of dishes, and you won't be seen inside and out."

Qin Huairu smashed the garlic with a knife, poured soy sauce into a bowl, "Eat it."

"Okay, listen to you."

The big mother and the big man looked at each other, and the deaf old lady laughed even more.

In the house, it was peaceful.

In the hospital, Mrs. Jia Zhang felt uncomfortable after eating the dumplings sent by Shazhu. For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, they are in the hospital, alas.

Looking at the son next to him, he didn't know if he was asleep or unconscious.

Don't even say a word, the whole one, a useless person.

Ugh.
Picking up Jia Dongxu's share of dumplings, Jia Zhang stretched out his hand.
One night passed, and in the new year, the sun came and illuminated the future.

Yang Xiaotao woke up, stretched out his hand to touch it, felt the familiar outline, and felt inexplicably at ease.

I picked up my watch and looked at it, it was 06:30 in the morning.

This year has passed so fast.

Last night, the whole village went to battle together. The hundred catties of pork and even the sugar in the pot were eaten clean, which opened Yang Xiaotao's eyes.

Everyone looked dry and thin, but even he was shocked by the appetite after eating three bowls of broth and two pancakes.

Of course, his appetite also shocked the people in the village.

One person, up to three.

It's just that my stomach is still full after eating.

After finishing cleaning up, it was almost two o'clock. Everyone brought their things, put out the fire, left the pots and dishes and cleaned them tomorrow, and went back to their respective houses.

However, the men who had eaten and drank enough tonight are obviously full of energy, and it can be expected that there will be more newborns joining in the village in the coming year.

It was dawn outside, and there was no movement. It is estimated that all the villagers are hugging their daughter-in-law on the kang.

Yang Xiaotao was no exception, he reached out and hugged Ran Qiuye from behind.

Soft as jade, comfortable to hold.

Ran Qiuye, who was sleeping, lazily raised his hand, "Don't move, sleep again."

Yang Xiaotao stopped in moderation, and was about to touch the little guy down, when a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

Ding!
What happened?
Does the system also give out red envelopes during Chinese New Year?

Yang Xiaotao hurriedly checked.

huh huh
"Xiao Wei?"

A familiar voice came from his ear, and Yang Xiaotao immediately became excited, and then he felt a chill in his arms, and a mass of emerald green gradually appeared, and after a while, Xiaowei's figure was revealed.

In my mind, Xiaowei's cry immediately came.

"Whoa!"

There was joy in the voice, as if the bright sun was shining on his body, Yang Xiaotao only felt his body warm up, and the feeling of fullness just now disappeared, and he felt full of vitality.

Yang Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, and immediately checked the properties panel.
