Lin Chao sat in the garden for a while, then went to the kitchen to help Nie Sheng.

Although the winter in Ercheng is not as cold as that in City B, it is not comparable to places like Hainan where it feels like summer all year round.

Neither Lin Chao nor Nie Sheng prepared to cook in the middle of winter.

Lin Chao bought a lot of dry goods in City B before, and he just needed them today.

The squab that has just had its down replaced is paired with the two-headed abalone bought by Lin Chao to stew the soup, which is fresh and nourishing. It is very suitable for winter when you need to take supplements.

In addition, braised mutton made from newly grown goats and Huadu's local specialty steam pot chicken are used to stew the chicken that has been processed in advance with the steam from the pot, making it extraordinarily fragrant and tender.

There are also sauced beef made with the palace’s secret recipe, dry pot shrimps made from fresh prawns just shipped from the sea, and steamed Eastern Star Spots.

Then there are the steamed chicken fungi and ham that Wu Fang had frozen in July and August, plus Nie Sheng learned the royal cuisine first-grade tofu from Yushanfang, and it’s basically the same.

When it's time to start the meal, add fried winter bamboo shoots and Ercheng's characteristic water-based poplar blossoms, and the meal is ready.

After Lin Chao and Nie Sheng finished their preparations, Lin Chao's uncle's house also arrived.

If Lin Chao and Nie Sheng wanted to announce that they were together in front of their families, they would naturally have to be present.

After all, they are not Lin Chao's parents. Wu Fang and Lin Zhengguo can talk to Lin Chao and Nie Sheng separately. Close relatives like uncles always have to exercise caution.

However, there is a sense of propriety, and there are no less questions that need to be asked. Moreover, this time the answers are given by two people, and tacit understanding must be considered from time to time.

Although the process was a bit bumpy, the results were still very good. In terms of Nie Sheng's conditions, he was already top-notch in the country. He was from a powerful family, and his own conditions were so good, and his family did not object.

None of the Mary Sue heroes with stacks of buffs are so smooth.

The two parties had good contact, and Nie Sheng took out the prepared gifts.

Logically speaking, Lin Chao's uncle's family does not need to make such preparations, but Nie Sheng is not lacking in this, why not do it to the extreme?

That red plum tree was okay. Except for Uncle Lin Chao, who knew the goods, no one else could tell how much it was worth.

But the value of the rupee rubellite chain set is too obvious. The beautiful red color and exquisite workmanship make it clear at a glance that it is worth a lot.

"Forget it about this red plum tree. I can't accept this set of jewelry. It's too expensive. I can just give this to my sister-in-law." Aunt Lin Chao refused while looking at the necklace.

"This was originally prepared for you. My mother, Nie Sheng, has given me two sets. You can take this set by yourself." Lin Chao said to his aunt.

"No, it's too expensive. It's not appropriate for uncles and aunts to give gifts when someone comes to your door.

What's more, what you gave me last year was already very valuable. How can I keep collecting it like this? If my sister-in-law has it, she will keep it for Yue Yue as a dowry. "

"Don't worry about Yue Yue's dowry, and the color is not suitable for Yue Yue's age. Just accept it. This is the last time. Next time you want it again, you have to wait for Lin Xia and the others. If you don't accept it, Are you looking down on Nie Sheng’s gift?”

After Lin Chao said this, it would be inappropriate if he didn't accept this gift.

Aunt Lin could only accept the gift shamelessly, silently making a note in her heart that the bond between the two families would not be broken in the future.

After Nie Sheng gave the gift, he chatted for a while and then went to the kitchen with Lin Chao.

The days in winter are short, and it will get dark if you don't pay attention in the afternoon. Lin Chao doesn't want to have dinner after dark.

Most of the dishes were ready, so Lin Chao and Nie Sheng went in to fry a winter bamboo shoot and a watery poplar to eat.

Both Lin Chao and Nie Sheng had learned cooking skills. Even during the Chinese New Year, when a table of meat and vegetables was laid out, it didn't feel greasy.

After dinner, Uncle Lin Chao and his family sat at home for a while before leaving.

After Nie Sheng met Lin Chao's family, he had nothing important to do and was just waiting for the New Year.

Lin Chao's New Year's Eve dinner used to be held together by the whole family. This year it was supposed to be Lin Chao's turn to have the New Year's Eve dinner at Uncle Lin Chao's house.

But this year, Nie Sheng came to visit for the first time. It was not appropriate to go to someone else's house, so the family of five stayed at home.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Chao got up early to prepare.

He was going to the Spring Festival Gala for last year's New Year's Eve dinner, and he had to prepare carefully for this year's New Year's Eve dinner.

You must have chicken and fish during the Chinese New Year. Most of the chicken eaten these two days are hot dishes. Lin Chao plans to make a refreshing peppercorn chicken.

As for the fish, I plan to make a squirrel mandarin fish. Not only is the color bright and suitable for the Chinese New Year atmosphere, but the taste is sweet and sour and very appetizing.

Then there are delicious, auspicious meat dishes such as Sixi Meatballs, Braised Pork, Fried Pork Ribs, and Golden Shrimp Balls.

Meat dishes alone are definitely not enough. Even if Lin Chao and Nie Sheng control the portions very well during the Chinese New Year, they will not be able to eat meat alone.

Naturally, vegetarian dishes with auspicious meanings such as Jinyumantang, Bazhen tofu, brown sugar rice cakes, assorted vegetarian dishes, and a century-old marriage are indispensable.

Finally, a light and fragrant three-fresh soup was added, making up 12 dishes to fill the table.

Twelve dishes for five people is indeed a bit much, but you can’t finish all the New Year’s Eve dinner. It’s customary to leave a little.

After Lin Chao and Nie Sheng controlled the quality, they happened to have more than enough every year.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, it’s natural to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

But just watching the Spring Festival Gala is not interesting. Naturally, I want to play mahjong, the quintessence of Chinese culture.

It happened that Lin Yue was not interested in this, so the four of them, Lin Chao and Lin, could fight and stay up late at the same time, and time flew by quite quickly.

Lin Yue was watching the Spring Festival Gala alone and playing with his mobile phone. He said he wanted to see how Huang Jing and Zhang Wenwen performed in the Spring Festival Gala this year.

The theme "Mom or Daughter" is suitable for the Spring Festival Gala. Only halfway through the song, the name of Lin Chao, a person who did not participate in the Spring Festival Gala, floated across the live broadcast room of the Spring Festival Gala.

Judging from this performance, this song should be on the hot search list for this year’s Spring Festival Gala.

This is indeed the case. Before the Spring Festival Gala ended, "It's Mom, It's Daughter" became popular all over the Internet, driven by the influence of the Spring Festival Gala.

Lin Chao's mahjong entertainment also ended before midnight.

Lin Chao's home is in the urban area of ​​Ercheng City, so there is no need to think about setting off fireworks, but it is convenient to watch the fireworks show organized by the government in the urban area.

Standing in Lin Chao's room on the second floor, he could just see the brilliant fireworks rising into the sky in the city square, lighting up the dark night.

Lin Chao looked at the fireworks outside the window and came close to Nie Sheng: "Happy New Year Mr. Nie, may I hold the piano and harp in my hand for the rest of my life."

"The harp and the sound? Which harp and which harp?"

"Don't you know which piano?"

"Maybe it's clear, but I still have to ask you carefully to know."

Lin Chao and Nie Sheng discussed the issue of Qin Se and Ming, and the box office battle for the New Year's Festival also kicked off with the sound of fireworks.
