Chen Qingyi and Chen Qingfeng looked furtively, eagerly waiting for the follow-up.

After Zhao Xiangmei came back, she went back to the east room and rummaged through the cabinets and found two cashmere scarves.

This was given to her by Chen Qingyi before. She has many scarves, but she has never worn them.

Chen Qingyi blinked, "Mom, what are you doing?"

"When you go to deliver these two scarves later, give them to your eldest aunt and second aunt in front of your grandpa.

Whichever color you want, you can choose it yourself. "

They both look good, one is bright red and the other is maroon.

"Got it!" This was an attitude. The brother and sister carried their things and walked to Zhao's house.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt were talking affectionately in the kitchen.

Mrs. Zhao sat aside and added some firewood to the stove pit from time to time. The uncle and the second uncle sat by the brazier and played chess.

The juniors played poker in the West Room and won matchsticks.

Only old man Zhao was sitting on the edge of the kang, smoking a pipe and pot, silent and looking quite miserable.

Well, this is being isolated, hehe!

The old man may have a clear mind now, and he knows that what he did is wrong, but he can't lose face.

Chen Qingyi curled her lips slightly.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, aunt... Happy New Year."

The two of them said in unison and put the things they were carrying on the kang.

Chen Qingyi took out the scarf and said, "Auntie, aunt, this is the scarf my mother bought for you."

Li Chunfen touched it curiously and said with a smile: "Why did your mother spend this money?

I don’t lack a scarf, I have it!

Your second aunt gave me one a few days ago.

Is this wool?It feels soft to the touch, and the color is right, bright red, not easy to buy, right?

Yuni, please touch it too..." He handed it to the second aunt again.

Li Chunfen didn't think much, but Li Yuni smiled and patted Chen Qingyi's head.

This sister-in-law!

What kind of things are usually given to the two old people, the sister-in-law has the most, and the eldest brother has almost nothing.

This is to thank my sister-in-law for taking good care of the old couple!

It's the same with the other sisters-in-law below. Every time they come back, they always praise the elder sister-in-law and the younger sister-in-law.

The sisters-in-law are not trouble-makers.

Everyone was filial, but there was one person in the family who didn't understand anything. Li Yuni sighed in her heart.

He shouted into the room at the top of his lungs:

"Dad, do you want to just drink the liquor like this, or should I warm it up for you?"

Old Man Zhao: "...cough, warm it up, it's cold, drink something warm, warm it up, you and your mother will also drink two cups at noon.

We are also lively during the Chinese New Year. "

"Hey!" Li Yuni responded crisply.

The next moment, Zhao Chuanwen made a chess move in the room, with a smile in his voice: "General! Brother, you are such a bad chess player."

Zhao Chuanjia shook his head, "I won't play anymore, I won't play anymore, I can't beat you, I'll go feed the chickens.

You go play with our dad! "

Chicken: ...Did you add extra food during the Chinese New Year?

A family is like this, just stumbling a little and turning a blind eye and passing by.

When Chen Qingyi came home, she said that Zhao Xiangmei's kitchen knife dance of chopping chickens became even more exciting!

The two of them carried their things to Lao Chen's house again.

As soon as she entered the door, she heard Mrs. Chen mumbling. Chen Qingyi knew what the old lady was mumbling without having to listen.

There is a particularly important event for Lao Chen's family during the Chinese New Year.

For the ancestors!

They don't have a strong sense of movement. No one cares about making offerings to their ancestors during the New Year or burning paper.

Who has no ancestors?

Who is not afraid that their relatives will have no money to spend down there, and will suffer from cold and hunger?As long as you don't publicize it, no one will report it.

Even the little celebrities in the commune are not that free. If they dare to come, the villagers will beat them out!

Making offerings to ancestors is also a tiring job.

Early in the morning every year, Mr. Chen and others set up the altar table.

There is a portrait in the middle, and on both sides are people's names, which are family trees. When she was a child, she stupidly asked why there was no grandfather's name.

On the table were an incense burner bowl, two pieces of rice, red date steamed buns, and a few cubes of meat.

The meat is cooked a day in advance, cut into tofu-sized pieces, placed in a bowl, and topped with red vermicelli cooked in red paper.

Usually no one eats the meat after it is offered.

So the meat looks big, but it's actually very thin, and there's cabbage underneath the meat.

Meat and vermicelli are rare things these days.

Therefore, many people do not offer these two kinds of food to their ancestors. Even steamed buns are usually made of corn noodles or sweet potato noodles.

Some people simply don’t display it.

Old man Chen is very insistent on this point. In the past few years, he has held the festival every year, starting from the morning of New Year's Eve to the evening of the second day of the Lunar New Year and then withdrawing again.

Anyone in the family can offer incense, regardless of boys or girls.

After the dumplings are cooked, she will pick up a few on a small plate and place them on the table. This year, Mrs. Chen also placed four pieces of rice cakes.

A plate of sugar, and a few oranges and apples.

Much richer than in previous years.

When the two of them entered, Old Chen was lighting incense. When he saw them coming, he immediately greeted them: "Xiao Feng, Xiao Yi, come and put on the incense sticks.

Let your ancestors bless you and wish you success and good health in the coming year. "

After the obedient man finished offering the incense, Old Man Chen's constant mumbling came to his ears, his voice full of joy:

"With the blessing of our ancestors, all our children will be able to make a living this year. The eldest son of the second family, Qingsong, has gone to join the army.

Protect the family and the country, honor the ancestors, and ask the ancestors to bless Qingsong safely and smoothly. "

Then he whispered: "If the ancestors can help me, I will bless Qingsong to become a general.

I will definitely burn more paper then.

Car after car is burned, ensuring that the ancestors have spare money to play mahjong every day. "

Chen Qingyi, Chen Qingfeng: "...!!"

Then Old Man Chen's tone changed, and he muttered piously: "The Qingbai from the second family is the most capable!

Being around the city leaders and being respected by the leaders will surely lead to rapid success in the future.

This grandson is the smartest! "Speaking of this, Old Man Chen became proud again.

"Qingsong and Qingbai are both civil and military, so why worry about our old Chen family not being able to get up! When Qingfeng also becomes a soldier..."

The little old man began to think about the future. At this time, his voice became softer, and Chen Qingyi tilted her head and came closer.

Just listen to her father say there:

"I don't save money. If I have money, I will buy delicious food to supplement myself.

I will try my best to live to be a hundred years old and watch with my eyes wide open how our old Chen family prospers!

I might as well talk to you when I get down. "

"The life of our old Chen family is prosperous now. This girl Xiaoyi is the most blessed. I will follow her to enjoy the blessings from now on."

Chen Qingyi: "..." Could it be that her father taught her breast milk?

Then Old Man Chen changed the subject, "The third son, Changhe, and his family are pretty good, even though they don't have a son.

The family of four is living a harmonious life, but the old man is in trouble, and Adou cannot afford to support him.

I didn't come to help today, which makes the old lady angry.

As the old saying goes, a dragon gives birth to nine sons. If the sons are different, you can't count on the eldest son.

The fourth child is also a finished child, and the three-year-old saw the younger ones.

No one can make a difference!

It's good that the second child has long boobs. If I can't do it myself, the children I give birth to are pretty good.

He only did a few human things..."

"Blessed by our ancestors, our filial sons and virtuous grandsons kowtow to you."

At the end of the speech, Old Man Chen bowed solemnly.

Chen Qingyi quietly withdrew her ears.

Her father sounds quite cultured!Even if I have too many wishes, I don’t know if my ancestors can bear it.
