The sound of crackling firecrackers resounded far and near throughout Fuyuan County. Liu Dajin, who was normally dull, also grinned, held up an incense stick and lit the firecrackers in the yard.

The whole house was surrounded by people far away, covering their ears and waiting for the deafening sound.After setting off the firecrackers, we can have dinner.

All the food Mrs. Zhang had been preparing since morning was brought out of the kitchen and served on the table.

Mrs. Zhang was originally a cook. Although her cooking skills are not the best, the food she cooks is quite delicious.For the New Year's Eve dinner, she prepared it according to the customs of the local people.

Stewed chicken soup with goji berries and red dates, a four-pound elbow stewed with soybeans, a large piece of pork belly braised in braised sauce, and a three-pound big grass carp braised in braised sauce served on a large porcelain plate.Then there are homemade bacon and dumplings.

During the Chinese New Year in North Vietnam, dumplings must be made, stuffed with pork and cabbage.Chop pork belly into stuffing, add some wine, sugar and salt.Chop the cabbage and filter the water, add chopped green onion and mix into the meat stuffing.The rolled skins are filled one by one to form beautiful dumplings.

To make dumplings during the Chinese New Year, it must be the mobilization of the whole family.Zhang's dexterity makes a beautiful dumpling when lifted and pressed.Chunhua and Qiuyue have also learned it. Although the speed is not so fast, they are also delicate and beautiful.But the others were purely here to make trouble, especially Xiao Mo Fei and Young Master Yang.There is only one word to describe the dumplings that passed through the hands of the two of them - appalling.

The cooked dumplings were served on the table, and the table was full immediately.Such a large table of dishes, most of them are meat dishes, and the portions are full.This kind of New Year's Eve dinner can be said to be very rich in Fuyuan County.And the big guy's New Year's Eve dinner was unsurprisingly eaten until he was full.

Others are greedy. Although Yang Fan usually asks Mrs. Zhang to buy meat, but such big fish and big meat let go of his helpers to eat, and only the Chinese New Year has such an opportunity.

As for Yang Fan, he ate a lot of good things, and the food made by Mrs. Zhang tasted okay, but it wasn't to the point where he couldn't control it.But the food tasted good, but the dumplings were really delicious.Yang Fan couldn't help stuffing things into his mouth one after another.

Eating delicious dumplings, listening to the sound of firecrackers and firecrackers outside.On this traditional Chinese festival, Yang Fan will inevitably think of his family in another world.

Although their family immigrated early and he grew up abroad, their family still keeps the New Year's habit.Every Spring Festival, family members will get together, have a New Year’s Eve dinner, and watch the Spring Festival Gala at night.

Even if he worked later, he would return to his parents every year during the Chinese New Year and reunite with the family.

Looking at the steaming food on the table and listening to the children's laughter, Yang Fan couldn't help but think of his family.

Parents, grandparents, sister, little nephew...

He traveled to this world in this way, and it is conceivable that the person "Yang Fan" should have disappeared over there.In his heart, he hoped that this matter would not bring too much pain to his family, but Yang Fan also understood that it was impossible for them not to be sad or sad.

If only there was a way to let them know that they are still alive and live well in another world... "Ah..." The hem of the clothes that was pulled woke up Yang Fan who was immersed in his thoughts. He lowered his head, saw the chubby little guy, stared Looking at herself with big beautiful eyes, she held a candied fruit in her soft little hand and handed it over.

"Ah..." Xiao Mofei couldn't speak yet, but just grabbed the candied fruit and put it in Yang Fan's mouth, motioning for him to eat.

Seeing his cute appearance, Yang Fan couldn't help laughing.Open your mouth to hold the candied fruit, the sweet and sour taste is delicious.

Seeing Yang Fan eating, Xiao Mofei smiled happily and bent his eyebrows, then he still didn't forget to look at Lin Mozhu, puffed out his small chest, and signaled that his brother had completed the task!

Yang Fan followed his gaze and met the child's caring eyes.Feeling warm at the moment, the smile on his face was even better. Shen touched the child's head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"En." Lin Mozhu nodded, but he didn't think so in his heart.

How can it be all right?Everyone was laughing, but he sat there quietly, feeling lonely all over his body.

In Lin Mozhu's eyes, Yang Fan is always calm and smiling to everyone.Seeing Yang Fan like this for the first time, Lin Mozhu couldn't help feeling sorry for him, but also realized it.It turns out that Yang Fan is not perfect without flaws, he is also a human being, and he will be tired and sad...

At this moment, an unprecedented longing rose in Lin Mozhu's heart.

He is eager to help Yang Fan - not just in his career.He hopes that he can make Yang Fan happy and make him happy

At the same time as this idea was formed, the heart beat violently.The blood boiled, and the heat flow followed the blood flowing through the blood vessels, making the whole body hot.The feeling of being suddenly full of power made Lin Mozhu's excited soul tremble.

Seeing Lin Mozhu suddenly in a daze, with flushed cheeks and bright eyes, Yang Fan patted his thin shoulder and asked, "Little Mozhu, what's the matter? What are you thinking?"

"Ah?" Lin Mozhu came back to his senses in an instant, seeing Yang Fan's handsome face so tightly away, for some reason he felt a little

shy.

"It's okay...well, I was just thinking..." After calming down the flustered heartbeat caused by Yang Fan's sudden approach, Lin Mozhu swallowed and found an excuse: "I was just thinking, this is me and Xiao The most exciting year ever!"

This is true, even though his father was still an accountant at that time, their family was not rich, and at most they only allowed him to eat enough to keep him from starving, and only had meat and vegetables once or twice a month.

Such a table is full of chicken, fish, and meat, not to mention him and Xiao Fei, even Qiuyue and the others are greedy.

Seeing that Yang Fan seemed to believe his words, Lin Mozhu hesitated for a while, and asked cautiously: "Brother Yang, do you also celebrate the New Year with you?"

Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, and replied with a smile: "Yes, Chinese New Year too."

Seeing that Yang Fan didn't reject this topic, Lin Mozhu secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and continued to ask, "Is that as fun as our place?"

"Well, it's fun. The whole family gets together to post Spring Festival couplets and make dumplings. After the New Year's Eve dinner at night, everyone sits together playing mahjong and cards. You can also go to the street to play and watch fireworks."

"What are mahjong and card games?"

"It's a kind of entertainment in our place. It's very fun. I'll teach you when I have a chance in the future."

"Really? Thank you Brother Yang

Looking at the smiling face of the child, Yang Fan's heart also softened.Then I thought about it-there were very few entertainment items in ancient times, and mahjong and poker were a good idea.Many people joked that mahjong is the quintessence of China, maybe there is already a mahjong here.But Card Yang Fan thinks there should be none.

Maybe he can promote poker, and then open a teahouse, where he can drink tea, listen to music, play cards and rub mahjong.

I believe business should be very good!

Yang Fan rubbed his chin, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was feasible.

Thinking of a new idea, Yang Fan wanted to feel better immediately.Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, he took out a handful of red envelopes and gave everyone lucky money.

In ancient times, men were twenty weak crowns, and women were fifteen years old. That is to say, men became adults at 20 years old and women reached adulthood at 15 years old.The whole family, except Liu Da, Zhang Shi and Yang Fan, are all minors.Yang Fan gave one to each of them.

As for Liu Da and Zhang's, they also have red envelopes, but they are not lucky money but "year-end bonuses".Not only the two of them, but also the two guys in the firm.

But this is just for auspiciousness, and Yang Fan doesn't want to be too conspicuous, so except for the two brothers of the Lin family, everyone's red envelopes only have 66 copper coins, which is a big bulging bag.Those who received it were very happy.

So one by one happily took the red envelopes and put them away, and then gathered around the fire to watch the new year.

In ancient times, there was a custom of keeping watch on New Year's Eve.It is said that the old people keep the old age as "farewell to the old year", which means to cherish the time, and the young people keep the old age to prolong the life of their parents.

In the custom of Beiyue Kingdom, the New Year's Eve is the same as keeping the year old.But children have limited energy, but they can't last until midnight, especially Lin Mofei, who yawns before the hour of the day.

Although it is a custom, it is not necessary to stay up so late.So Yang Fan saw that everyone was sleepy, so he let them all go to bed.

Lin Mozhu carried Xiao Mofei back to the room first, and after coaxing him to sleep, he came out to accompany Yang Fan.Yang Fan tried to persuade him twice, but when he saw the child persisted, he followed him.

When it was three o'clock in the afternoon, that is, around ten o'clock in the evening, the younger ones couldn't bear to go back to their rooms to sleep.Only Mr. and Mrs. Liu, Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu were left in the dining room.

According to Yang Fan's request, Mrs. Zhang put a pot of soup on the stove, smashed pork bones, added some ginger, and simmered like this.On the side is a plate of dumplings made by Zhang's. If you are hungry, order dumplings and a bowl of warm pork bone soup.

Looking at the pork bone soup tumbling in the pot, as time goes by, the soup has become thick and white, and the meat is full of fragrance.Add some salt and drink it, it tastes delicious.After drinking a bowl of hot soup, my whole body immediately warmed up.

While drinking the soup, Yang Fan suddenly missed hot pot.

Since returning to China for work, my friends like to eat hot pot when it comes to winter.Once Lu Fei took him to a friend's house for dinner. The hostess of that house was very good at cooking. She cooked a table of dishes for everyone and prepared hot pot.

Yang Fan remembered that the hot pot base she used was soup made from pork bones, and the bone soup that had been boiled all afternoon had become

Creamy white and very tasty.After serving, use a mandarin duck pot, put the original soup, and add chili, pepper, etc. to become a spicy pot.

Thinking of that taste, Yang Fan felt a little greedy, and couldn't hold back another bowl of soup.

Eating hot pot in winter feels like a word!

Maybe, he can open a hot pot restaurant?
