Farmer one or two things

Chapter 39 New Year's Eve

After eating the New Year's Eve dinner and putting on new clothes, it's time to give red envelopes.Song Xiaobao, Zhao Yanxiu, and Song Tiancai were all stuffed with red envelopes by Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi.Of course, it was Song Xiaobao who gained the most. He took four red envelopes. Song Tiancai counted them for him, and it was eight taels of silver.

In order to help Song Xiaobao establish a correct view of money earlier, Song Tiancai made him a very cute and beautiful wooden savings box.Teach Song Xiaobao to put all the silver money he usually gets into it. When he has nothing to do, use copper coins to teach him to count, tell him what delicious food can be bought with a copper coin, and how much fun can be bought for him with a tael of silver.Quantify the abstract money and let Song Xiaobao understand the concept of money.Do cherish what you have, don't waste it or squander it.

Song Tiancai also wrapped Zhao Yanxiu a two-liang red envelope, but Zhao Yanxiu didn't want it when he gave it to Zhao Yanxiu.I really don't want to, it seems that taking the red envelope from Song Tiancai like Song Xiaobao is a very shameful thing, and trying to argue that he is also Song Xiaobao's elder and should not be treated the same as Song Xiaobao.However, he was suppressed by Song Tiancai. It was hard for Song Tiancai to find a moment to show his status at home in an upright manner. How could Zhao Yanxiu interfere.

Although Song Tiancai's red envelopes can only be given to two people, this does not prevent Song Tiancai from showing his status as the patriarch in front of Song Xiaobao and Zhao Yanxiu with the attitude of a veteran and an elder fan.Tell the two of them that everything will be under their command in the future.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, many people in the village will rush to the door.Song Dashan is not such a person who likes to join in the fun.I only went to Song Dahai's house with Chen Guizhi to chat for a while, and then came back.Rather than chatting with outsiders, they still want to tease their grandchildren and stay at home.

There is a custom of eating dumplings on the evening of the New Year's Eve. It is rumored that because the dumplings look like ingots, eating dumplings at night also indicates that the coming year will be full of wealth and prosperity.The Song family likes to make dumplings together after the New Year's Eve dinner, and eat them directly after making dumplings.

Song Tiancai is good at making dumplings and wontons. In his previous life, he was working alone, and the refrigerator in the rented house was mostly filled with dumplings and wontons.He made them all by himself. If he bought stuffing and ingredients for the price of a box of quick-frozen dumplings bought outside, he could make four or five boxes of them.

Song Tiancai, who is very budget-minded, always makes his own bags, stuffed with pork and leeks, eggs and leeks, celery and pork, shiitake mushrooms and shrimps... all kinds of things, he has made them all.It's not that he particularly likes dumplings, it's just because the cost of a meal of dumplings is cheap, it's very trouble-free, boil water and throw it away, a bowl of dumplings for a meal, even saving the cost of vegetables.

His highest record of eating dumplings was one month in a row, because he hurt himself, and after Song Tiancai became rich, he never touched dumplings again.No matter how delicious it is, I have no appetite, so I have been here for several months, and Song Tiancai has never mentioned making dumplings to eat.

But this meal is indispensable on New Year's Eve, so Song Tiancai became the main force of the Song family's dumpling making.Except that the two hand-wrapped dumplings were not very good-looking at the beginning, the other dumplings were full and beautiful, and the speed could match the hand speed of Chen Guizhi and Song Dashan.

Song Xiaobao saw that making dumplings was fun, and wanted to make dumplings too, but unfortunately the skin was pinched in his hands, and it was almost lumpy, so he still didn't watch Song Xiaobao put the stuffing.Chen Guizhi didn't want to waste food, so he coaxed the dumpling wrapper from Song Xiaobao's hand with good words, and wrapped it up again.

In a blink of an eye, Zhao Yanxiu's place was even more horrible.At any rate, Song Xiaobao can still make steamed buns and noodle cakes.Zhao Yanxiu's dumplings can't be called dumplings anymore. Either the skin was torn and the filling was exposed, or the skin was squeezed into a ball with too much force. He made three or four dumplings and arranged them crookedly in a row. The ugly Song Tiancai was almost sad.

For this reason, Song Tiancai had to stop showing off his superb skills in making dumplings and slowly teach Zhao Yanxiu how to make dumplings.Tell him how to hold the leather, how much stuffing is enough, and how hard to pinch the leather.Fortunately, Zhao Yanxiu's comprehension is good, Song Tiancai taught him two or three times, and he can barely wrap it up.

After the dumplings were put into the pot, Chen Guizhi served twenty dumplings each, and Song Xiaobao ate a bowl with her.Song Tiancai looked worried at the bowl full of dumplings, he really didn't want to eat any.Zhao Yanxiu ate well with the bowl in his hand. It was the first time he ate the dumplings made by himself. Naturally, it felt different.

However, Zhao Yanxiu's eyesight has always been good, Song Tiancai looked at the dumplings in embarrassment and he understood.His elder brother doesn't want to eat it, but it's not good to waste it.Besides, the meaning of this dumpling is good, the custom is like this, if his elder brother really doesn't eat it, it will make the old couple of the Song family worry.

Zhao Yanxiu thought about it while Chen Guizhi was feeding Song Xiaobao and didn't pay attention to this, and quickly dug out half of Song Tiancai's bowl with a spoon.Then he blinked at Song Tiancai, seeing half of the dumplings missing, Song Tiancai immediately cast a grateful look at Zhao Yanxiu, and said in his heart: My younger brother is the one to start, um, he can contract all the dumplings at home from now on.

In the end, Song Tiancai swallowed the dumplings bitterly.Zhao Yanxiu rubbed his stretched stomach, and smiled wryly thinking that he would never show his power again.Eating dumplings to the point where he couldn't walk, he planned not to tell anyone about it.

The first day of the Lunar New Year was a very joyous day. Chen Guizhi and Song Dashan got up early in the morning.They eat chicken noodle soup in the morning on the first day of junior high school. Chen Guizhi and the others can't say what the specific meaning is, but it has been passed down from generation to generation and has become a custom.

In Songjia Village, no matter how poor people are, they will cook chicken noodle soup on the first day of junior high school.The first thing Chen Guizhi and Song Dashan did when they got up was to set off firecrackers. They were not the first to get up, and the sound of firecrackers from several houses rang out.Then, it is to kill the chicken to cook the soup, and roll the noodles.

As soon as the firecrackers sounded, Song Tiancai woke up.Think about it, there is nothing in my family to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, his mother will go back to her mother's house on the second day of the second year, and Song Tiancai will also go to his uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings.Although what happened earlier made Song Tiancai feel uncomfortable, but he has already married and established a business. If he doesn't pay New Year's greetings to his uncle, outsiders will still say that the Song family is rude.

However, Song Tiancai has prepared four rituals this time, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it if there is nothing more.Since the uncles didn't have any friendship with him, then he just took care of him in general.For the rest, Song Tiancai said that his uncles treated him with affection, so he didn't join in the fun.

But Song Dahai's place, Song Tiancai prepared things carefully for New Year's greetings.It can be regarded as Song Dashan's face, making Song Dashan happy.There are still a few old relatives, but Song Tiancai doesn't need to worry about it, Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi are all visiting, so Song Tiancai can just go make soy sauce.

With such a plan in mind, Song Tiancai stayed on the bed for a while, until Song Xiaobao put on his clothes and ran in and rolled on Song Tiancai's big bed, spitting out: "Daddy, sleep, shame!" I want to imitate Song Tiancai's way of slapping Song Tiancai's ass every time he calls him to get up.

How could Song Tiancai make his son laugh at him? He quickly got up, rubbed Song Xiaobao in his arms, and squeezed Song Xiaobao's sky braid into various shapes before he stopped.Song Xiaobao didn't tease his father and messed up his hairstyle, angrily ignored Song Tiancai, and ran to his grandmother Chen Guizhi for comfort.

Zhao Yanxiu had also been woken up by the sound of firecrackers a long time ago. He put on his clothes and greeted Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi with a smile, which made the old couple of the Song family feel very special about him.As soon as Song Xiaobao saw Zhao Yanxiu, he fell in love with him, slurred his speech, and even made gestures and guesses to sue his father.It made Zhao Yanxiu laugh, nodded Song Xiaobao's little nose, and coaxed him for a while, Song Xiaobao immediately forgot the unpleasantness with his father just now, and played happily with Zhao Yanxiu.

The noodles had to be eaten right away, so Chen Guizhi didn't put the noodles in the pot until everyone in the Song family got up.An old hen boiled for more than an hour before being served on the table, along with fried capers, pickled radish heads and fried peanuts.Song Dashan carried a large tray with five bowls of noodles, all of which were dry and left nothing in it.

When the noodles are served in front of each other, everyone first scoops the soup into the noodles, then fishes the chicken, and finally adds other side dishes according to their own preferences.Song Tiancai has a strong taste, so he went to the kitchen to find chili oil and soybean paste, and added some to the bowl.Hulala, I ate a big bowl of chicken noodle soup.

Zhao Yanxi looked at Song Tiancai eating like this, and Huan also put it in according to Song Tiancai's seasoning, and it turned out to be spicy in one bite.This time, Song Tiancai asked Lin Xiaoman to make the chili oil specially for him. One mouthful can make you sweat all over.Song Tiancai couldn't take a spoonful of it himself.Not to mention Zhao Yanxiu, before he swallowed the noodles, he was looking for water to drink.

Song Tiancai looked at Zhao Yanxiu's appearance and couldn't eat that bowl of noodles anymore. Thinking about it, he simply poured the bowl of noodles into his own bowl, and helped Zhao Yanxiu fill another bowl of dry noodles. It was just right.

However, seeing Song Tiancai eating the bowl of noodles he just had without any scruples, Zhao Yanxiu felt a little awkward and heartwarming.He often watched the Song family treat Song Jiabao like this. Does that mean that in the eyes of Song Tiancai, he is as important as Song Xiaobao?

Before the meal was finished, there was a knock on the door. Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi looked at each other, wondering who would come to Song's house on New Year's Day.Song Dashan went to open the door, Chen Guizhi went to boil water in the house, and found melon seeds and cakes. For those who came to her house for the Chinese New Year, they had to be entertained anyway.

Song Dashan opened the door and saw that Song Jinbao and his wife were outside the door with their children.When Song Dabao saw Song Dashan, he shouted, "Grandpa!"

Song Jinbao was carrying his things, and said with a flattering look on his face, "Dad, it's Chinese New Year, and I'll pay you two elders a New Year's greeting."

Feng Jinhua also smiled and said: "Father, you and your mother have been the head of the family. We are all people who remember your gratitude. No, the child's father made two jars of good wine, so he hurried over to pay you a visit. years."

Song Dashan was stupid and didn't know what to say, but he was angry at Song Jinbao for not doing things properly, and he didn't want to talk to them.But they came to pay him New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. If the Song family didn't let them in and spread the word, he, as an elder, might have to talk to others.

Song Jinbao's voice was not high, but Song Tiancai, who followed him out, listened to him.Song Tiancai lamented that Song Jinbao's family is really small and strong, with tenacious vitality and a face that is beyond human reach.However, when they came to the door on the first day of the new year, they still dragged their mouths, if the Song family didn't let them in.Guaranteed that there will be rumors flying all over the sky tomorrow, Song Tiancai doesn't want to spoil the good mood of the Chinese New Year because of these two people.

Seeing that Song Dashan didn't speak, but didn't ask them to come in, Song Tianxuan was still satisfied.At least, his father has indeed changed a lot, and he is no longer a good person indiscriminately.Song Tiancai faked a smile to Song Jinbao and said, "It turns out that Jinbao brother and Dabao mother are here, come here, come in, come in quickly. Although you and my parents have no parental ties, but the folks from the big hometown come to my house to escape Just come, it’s too polite to bring something.”

Without looking at the expressions of Song Jinbao and Feng Jinhua after hearing this, Song Tiancai shouted loudly into the kitchen on purpose: "Mother, Brother Jinbao and Mother Dabao from the village next door came to our house as guests and brought a lot of things. You can eat at noon We have to make a good meal and entertain these three guests well. Don't be negligent, otherwise, others will say that our family is not good at hospitality. "

A few words tore apart the relationship between Song Jinbao and Feng Jinhua who had worked so hard to get closer.They are guests and fellow countrymen, but they will never be the son and daughter-in-law of Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi.Coming to the Song family to pay New Year's greetings has also become a normal visit, making Song Jinbao and Feng Jinhua have nothing to worry about.

Song Dashan was answered by Song Tiancai's words: "Dabao Dad, what Tiancai said is right. Our two families have no relatives and no reason, so it's inappropriate for you to give such a heavy gift. Don't give so many gifts in the future. Now it’s not like before, you don’t have to be too polite when you come to the door.”

Song Jinbao couldn't tell because he was suffering, and he didn't believe that Song Dashan, who was very partial to him in the past, would directly point out the matter of their severance without saving face.Tell them plainly that the Song family has nothing to do with them, so don't try to get close.

Obviously it shouldn't be like this. For those who celebrate the New Year, shouldn't they be forgiven no matter how unhappy they are when they come to the door sincerely?It's not like he's staying at Song's house anymore, why is he so hasty to separate him.Song Jinbao's face turned ugly, neither advancing nor retreating.

Feng Jinhua didn't expect Song Dashan to change his temper after only a few months of absence.It shouldn't be their New Year's greetings, Song Dashan took them in, they called father and mother, because of face and reputation, he would agree.When the time comes, the Song family will leave again.

But now that it's being torn apart like this, all her thoughts are probably for the blind to see.
