City Start Striving for Becoming a Rich Man

Chapter 269

New Year’s Eve

Ni Shixiao still wakes up early, and ignores Tang Jing’s acting like a baby.

He just pulled her up and forced her to wash her face and brush her teeth.

Give her another mask and go for a run. Today is a foggy day, and the air quality is quite high.

A little haze can already be found.

Since the beginning of winter, Ni Shixiao always wears a mask when he goes out for a run.

Today should be a day when most people are resting at home, and there are very few pedestrians on the street.

There are not many vehicles. If you can see the traffic police who insist on working, Ni Shixiao will wonder if there is no one.

The shops on the street are closed, including early shops.

Except for the vegetable market, it is estimated that few stores will be open today.

“Shixiao, I’m running…whoop…not moving anymore.”

After running for more than ten minutes of jogging, Tang Jing panted heavily and put her hands on her waist.

“You can’t do this. It turns out that you can run mountain trails and walk like flying. Now that your body is repaired, you can’t run. Let Natasha train you in the future.”

Tang Jing’s body made up for it, but the ability to endure hardship was slowly lost.

Ni Shixiao didn’t want Tang Jing to become a princess Jiaojiao, so let Natasha train her well.

“what?”

Tang Jing’s face 410 turned black.

She had seen how Natasha trained regularly, and she felt scared when she saw it.

Besides, take her to train together!

“Shixiao, okay if I don’t train?”

Tang Jing grabbed Ni Shixiao’s hand and said coquettishly!

“It’s useless for you to act like a baby. You have to listen to me this time. Don’t discount! Otherwise, I will throw you to the mercenaries in Nan Kefei to train. You choose your own choice!”

“If they know it, just practice it!”

Tang Jing saw that Ni Shixiao’s expression was serious this time, so she didn’t dare to be angry.

She is not afraid of going to Nan Kefei to endure hardship, but she really does not want to leave Ni Shixiao.

···

Back at Baylor House, Ni Shixiao went to the kitchen to get busy after taking a shower.

First cut the pork belly into small pieces, and then cut the dried fragrant meat that you made yourself into small pieces.

Put some sweet potato powder in the basin, then put the dried fragrant and meat pieces in it.

Add some cooking wine, soy sauce, a pinch of salt, pour suitable water, and then boil the powder.

Until they are evenly mixed together.

Pinch out one round shape of the right size, and place a lotus leaf on the bottom of the steamer.

Put the squeezed meatballs on the lotus leaf, cover the lid of the steamer, and steam slowly.

This is an indispensable dish in Ni Shixiao’s hometown for Chinese New Year and major festivals.

Another dish is a vegetarian goose, which is to wrap the Zhuge vegetables and tofu with the stuffing made in the tofu coat made a few days ago.

Then put it in the pan for a little bit of frying, or it can be steamed on the steamer.

It depends on personal preference.

In Ni Shixiao’s hometown, there are a few must-haves for the New Year’s Eve dinner on New Year’s Eve.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

A dish is fish, usually silver carp, which means more than every year.

This dish is not allowed to finish, otherwise there is more.

There are also chicken, meatballs, and rice cake stewed with Zhuge dishes.

There are also large pieces of fat, which are used to eat in the steamed buns.

Steamed buns are not the kind of steamed buns eaten in the morning. They are shaped like a hemisphere with a net inside.

On the surface, there will be a red seal with the word “Fu” or swollen Zheng Fan. The banquet must have steamed bread.

Roast Pork with Black Fungus, Roast Pork with Six Bamboo Shoots, Roast Zhuge Vegetables with Vermicelli.

Six bamboo shoots are spring bamboo shoots that are dried and then shaved into thin dried bamboo shoots. The taste is good.

In Ni Shixiao’s hometown, no matter who you visit, these dishes are definitely a must-have for New Year’s Eve dinner.

The rest of the dishes depend on the preferences and family conditions of each family.

In the end, you have to come up with an even number and auspicious number, usually at least ten dishes.

Or twelve, or sixteen, or even eighteen.

When eating, it’s not just a few people in the family who set up as many dishes and chopsticks.

Instead, put the bowls and chopsticks that match the number of dishes on the table, and pour the wine with a wine cup.

Ni Shixiao did not know why he did this. When he was a child, he asked an adult, but he wiped his mouth with a straw paper.

Straw paper is the kind of paper that is very rough and used to wipe it off after Christine.

In the words of adults, during the Chinese New Year, children cannot talk nonsense, and they have to wipe their “butts”.

It’s actually a mouth!

Tang Jing just asked Xi asked, and she was wiped “butt” by Ni Shixiao!

It was almost five o’clock in the afternoon, and Ni Shixiao set off a large string of firecrackers at the door.

Just closed the door and started eating New Year’s Eve dinner.

After the meal is finished, the head of the family has to set another string of firecrackers at the door so that the rest of the family can go out.

At twelve o’clock at midnight, when the New Year is greeted, firecrackers are still set off.

And these things must be done by the men in the family.

When I was in high school in my previous life, Ni Shixiao and his classmates spent the night in an Internet cafe, around 11 o’clock.

I have to tread hard and rush back to set off the firecrackers before I can come back and continue playing the game.

At that time, I played Delta and StarCraft, and there were only UO online games.

UO can be said to be the originator of 2D online games!

There are also stand-alone dungeons and warriors, meteor butterfly sword, FIFA99.

Half-Life will come out later, and Half-Life is the previous version of CS.

There are not many games that can be played. You can chat with strangers all night in a chat room.

But when I saw it early the next morning, I didn’t actually say a lot of jargon.

The one-finger-zen typing method can actually not type a few words overnight. To facilitate chatting, Ni Shixiao also taught himself the Wubi input method and the Erbi input method.

Later, I forgot about it, and returned to the big family of Pinyin typing.

···

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, another string of firecrackers was placed at the door.

Ni Shixiao took Tang Jing out, and there was a light show on the street for a while.

“Tang Jing, are you homesick?”

Ni Shixiao asked Tang Jing abruptly.

“I don’t want to!”

Ni Shixiao originally wanted to tell Tang Jing that there are no other parents in the world!

Can think of Tang Jing’s parents, they really are not good parents, so don’t think about it.

Ni Shixiao immediately turned off the subject: “What wishes or what do you want for the New Year?”

Tang Jing thought about it for a while, but didn’t expect to have anything special.

“I don’t seem to want anything special|West, if you want to talk about your wishes, as long as you can always be by your side.”

“The baby birds always leave the nest and go out soaring by themselves. Sooner or later you have to go out to find your home!”

Tang Jing did not speak any more, but silently thought in her heart: “My home is here, it’s you!”

After watching the lantern, the time came to 11 o’clock in the evening.

Ni Shixiao took Tang Jing back slowly!

When I returned to Baylor House, it was almost 11:50.

It’s just time to set off firecrackers.

After setting off the firecrackers, Ni Shixiao rubbed two small bowls of glutinous rice balls.

This is also the rule of his hometown, eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls to welcome the new year!

“Tang Jing, here you are, I wish you better results next year!”

Ni Shixiao took out a thick red envelope and handed it to Tang Jing. On New Year’s Eve, the elders wanted to give the younger ones a red envelope.

In the third year of junior high, Ni Shixiao went to worship Mu Zixuan for a year, and had lunch with Mr. Mu.

Turned to the Ma’s house again, and gave them a New Year greeting; by the way, I also gave a few New Year holidays to Aunt Chi! .
