"Taoist Master Miaoying, you can actually draw peach charms!"

"Hey, the fish in Dazui is fried well!"

"Uncle Zhang, help me pinch some gold ingots here. This is the God of Wealth. You may have never seen him before. After worshiping him, he will bless us all to make a fortune next year!"

"Oh, Yan Xiaoer, put your bamboo horse away. If you let me see you throwing things around again later, I will beat you up. I just want to beat you up to celebrate the New Year!"

"Sanya, why haven't you put on the new coat your mother made for you? Don't be reluctant to part with it. You must wear something new during the New Year!"

Yan Kai was walking around in the yard, and everyone was preparing for the New Year.

"Come on, it's time to eat, it's time to eat!" Yan Laoer and Li Dazui came out carrying plates of dishes and shouted loudly.

"Let's go have New Year's Eve dinner!"

Yan Kai greeted the monkeys, and then a group of children from Ulala ran over.

The lobby of Yan Kai's house is filled with three large tables, two for adults and one for children.

At first, Li Dazui said that two tables would be enough, and women would not come to the table, but Yan Kai yelled at her so hard that he almost couldn't lift his head.

It's not that he doesn't love his wife, he always thinks about his wife when he makes money, mainly because this is his daily mindset.

As a result, Yan scolded her, and she blushed and said that she was wrong.

Although he was scolded, he was not annoyed at all. Instead, he told his wife with a smile after returning home that Mr. Yan had said that women would sit at the same table this year.

The three tables were all filled with dishes, including all kinds of meat and fish. Even Mrs. Yan’s favorite chickens and ducks were killed and put on the table.

Not to mention the new arrivals, even the cooks like Da Zui have never had such a good meal during the Chinese New Year.

Everyone looked at Yan Kai, waiting for him to speak.

Yan Kai stood up from the children's table and said: "This is the first New Year for us all to celebrate together. I hope everyone will be prosperous and all the best next year. Come, let's have a drink!"

"Okay!" Everyone raised their glasses and shouted.

"Brother, this is it!" Yan Xiaoer took a sip of the water in the cup and his eyes lit up.

Yan Kai smiled and nodded, meaning you just know.

He just poured happy water into a big clay pot. Many children here drank it for the first time. This sweet water is so delicious. Some children drank one cup after another, and all the meat they usually like to eat was eaten. Can't care anymore.

Yan Kai didn't stop him, it was just once a year, how could he eat it if he didn't make people happy?

Anyway, they have to stay up late and eat dumplings when they are hungry.

This New Year's Eve dinner lasted almost three hours, mainly because Yan Laoer drank too much and cried loudly saying that he had a good son.

He couldn't pull it away, but Dazui and a few people later forced him to carry it into the house.

After dinner, it was almost eight o'clock. Seeing that everyone was bored, Yan Kai smiled and took out a box.

"Brother, what is this good thing?" Yan Xiaoer was the first to come over and ask.

"Go, go, go, it has nothing to do with you kids!" Yan Kai put the box on the table and said, "This is called mahjong. You can play it when you have nothing to do."

He asked his family's craftsmen to carve it out of wood, and it was also painted with tung oil. It was very beautiful.

As for the origin of Mahjong, there is no conclusion yet. Anyway, some say it was invented by Confucius, some said it was invented by Han Xin, and some said it was invented by Zheng He. I really don’t know when it appeared.

Anyway, Yan Kai asked Zheng Zhixun and Zhou Tong, especially Zhou Tong who loves to play and they don't know about this thing.

This shows that even if it existed in the Tang Dynasty, it was not widely spread.

After I teach everyone the rules, I don’t have to pay for it. So many people just take turns and lose.

Then looking at those skinny monkeys jumping up and down on the side, Yan Kai shouted again: "Who wants to set off firecrackers with me?"

"Me, me!" These children were so excited when they heard about setting off firecrackers.

During this period, every household would pile firewood in the yard during the Chinese New Year, which is called "burning the courtyard."

Unnecessary rotten brooms, rotten shoes, etc. will be thrown in and burned.

Firecrackers are also thrown in with bamboo poles, and the bamboo poles make a crackling sound.

It's just that Yan Kai didn't plan to let them burn bamboo poles today, but bought a lot of fireworks from the mall.

Anyway, just set it off in your own yard, and it will be gone after you set it off, so you don’t have to worry about these children talking about it everywhere.

After giving each person a cannon, all the children asked curiously: "Mr. Yan, what is this?"

"Didn't you say you were setting off firecrackers? I didn't see the bamboo poles!"

Yan Kai smiled and demonstrated to them: "This is lit in front, facing the sky, and must not be pointed at people!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw the strange pole in his hand shooting colorful fireballs into the sky.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

"what is this?"

"This is called...fireworks!" Yan Kai said: "Everyone, let's try it. Remember, the fireballs flying out of this are fireballs, but they must not be pointed at people!"

"Understood!" These children were very serious about Yan Kai's instructions. After everyone lit it, they held their hands and pointed towards the sky.

Small red, green, and yellow fireballs flew into the sky with tail flames.

The smell of gunpowder also began to fill the air.

Yan Kai looked at the fireworks in the sky leisurely, and his vision began to lose focus.

This is the taste, this is the feeling, this is what we call Chinese New Year!

Although there is no Spring Festival Gala, everyone is laughing, making fun, and setting off fireworks together, which makes it feel like celebrating the New Year!

Today, Yan Kai did not live broadcast during the day, but spent his time in the evening live broadcasting the Tang Dynasty's New Year's Eve.

Like Yan Kai, netizens in the live broadcast room also lamented the atmosphere of their homes during the New Year.

"Hey, we will celebrate the New Year here in more than a month, but we can't feel the New Year flavor at all."

"Who says it's not the case! Fireworks are not allowed to be set off, and there is no holiday on New Year's Eve. Those of us from other places have to wait until the first day of the Lunar New Year to go home. It's a crappy New Year!"

Yan Kai didn't expect that his ordinary New Year celebration would actually attract a lot of viewers.

Although many people are complaining, it can be seen that everyone is actually looking forward to having more Chinese New Year flavor.

"Mr. Yan, Mr. Yan, can you put it down?"

"Mr. Yan, it seems there is no more!"

When Yan Kai came back to his senses, he saw all the children raising their hands high and looking at him.

"Haha, put it down, and, and, that's enough!"

Yan Kai took out many kinds of fireworks, all of which were relatively safe.

The boy likes the little cannon he gave him the most. When he throws it on the ground, it makes a popping sound.

Girls, on the other hand, like welding rods that look great when swung around in their hands.

Only Yan Xiaoer asked a little unsatisfied: "Brother, is there anyone more powerful?"

"Something more powerful?"

"It's the kind you used to scare wild boars on the mountain last time, the kind that crackles and glows."

He has been thinking about those firecrackers.

Yan Kai touched his head and said: "Yes, there are, but it's a little too scary to put that one here. I'll get some for you when I go out to celebrate the New Year tomorrow."

"Really?" Yan Xiaoer was delighted.

"Of course it's true. I can let you use that artillery to blow up cow dung tomorrow. It's so exciting!"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect the anchor to be the same person!"

"Yes, artillery has no soul if it is not used to blow up cow dung!"
