Siheyuan starts from a good life

Chapter 174, Chinese New Year 3

The sound of cannons rang outside. After Jiang Yan heard it, Liu ordered He Yuzhu to take out the prepared firecrackers and set them off in the yard.

Jiang Yan took out a bottle of Wuliangye and poured a glass of wine for everyone sitting there.

Grandma Lu sat on it and looked at the group of people sitting around her, her eyes narrowed with laughter.

"Daughter-in-law Zhuzi, this is the first time you are here to celebrate the New Year this year. You and Zhuzi have already obtained the certificates. After the New Year, we will find a time to arrange a wedding for you. This is something grandma gave to the new daughter-in-law. You are not allowed to refuse."

Grandma Lu said that she took out a red cloth bag from her pocket and put it in Qin Huairu's hand.

Qin Huairu glanced at He Yuzhu a little embarrassed. He Yuzhu scratched his head a little embarrassed when he saw Qin Huairu's eyes, and looked at Jiang Yan again.

"Zhuzi, brother and sister, since it is something grandma gave you, you should take it! After all, this thing is also a part of grandma's heart."

When Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu heard what Jiang Yan said, they immediately accepted the things and said in unison: "Thank you, grandma."

"That's right. You can live a good life from now on. If Zhuzi dares to bully you, come to grandma and grandma will make the decision for you."

After Grandma Lu said this, she then turned to Xu Damao and the others and said, "You guys should hurry up and find me a wife. Grandma, I have all my things ready, one for each family, impartially."

"Then grandma, do I have it?" He Yuyu didn't hear grandma say her name at this time. Liu directly interrupted and asked.

"Yes! Of course our family's Yuyu will not be missing. Not only will I prepare it for you, grandma, but your brothers will also prepare a dowry for you. Our Yuyu is the most blessed person."

When Grandma Lu said this, she touched He Yuyu's head.

Grandma Lu's words made He Yuyu blush. Now that He Yuyu is ten years old, he naturally knows the meaning of getting married.

While Jiang Yan and his family were enjoying themselves here, other families in the courtyard also served their own New Year's Eve dinner.

The grandpa's New Year's Eve dinner was eaten together with the Jia family. Not knowing what was going on today, Jia Zhang, who was usually very lazy, took the initiative to take on the task of cooking the New Year's Eve dinner.

After the dishes were all served, the first man, Yi Zhonghai, turned green looking at the rice on the table. The finale of the New Year's Eve dinner cooked by Jia Zhang was braised pork.

It is more appropriate to call this braised pork than braised pork with potatoes. There are only a few pieces of meat in the whole plate of braised pork, and the total is only about one or two. The rest are all potatoes.

The fried pork with chili on the side only had a few thin slices of meat, and the braised carp only weighed two pounds of fish. The rest were all vegetarian.

"Sister-in-law, didn't I bring over two kilograms of meat and three big carps today? Why did you fry so little?"

Hearing the master's words, Jia Dongxu seemed a little embarrassed, and his face immediately turned red.

He had also advised his mother before when cooking, saying that if there were too few things, he would be afraid of losing face.

Who is Jia Zhang? He can spit out the food he eats, not to mention that face is nothing. He should not eat or drink.

Hearing what the uncle said, Mrs. Jia Zhang smiled and said: "As long as there is a little bit of meat on these potatoes and radishes, they will taste better than meat! If you don't believe me, try your sister-in-law's cooking. I guarantee it will taste better than meat."

After saying this, he warmly greeted Yi Zhonghai and the others for dinner.

She just pretended not to see Yi Zhonghai's livid face. Anyway, he was an old man. He was pointing out his own son to provide for him in old age. He probably didn't dare to say it if it offended him. This was what she had obtained by testing Yi Zhonghai many times. result.

But this time, it was clear that Jia Zhang had misjudged the situation. Originally, Yi Zhonghai had thought of taking Jia Dongxu to the machinery processing factory after the New Year. However, seeing Jia Zhang do this, he completely gave up the idea.

My disciple Jia Dongxu is good at everything, but he listens too much to Jia Zhang.

With his ability and skills, he was reused in the new factory, so he didn't have to worry about having no apprentices.

The New Year's Eve dinner at the second uncle's house was quite sumptuous. Ever since the second uncle Liu Haizhong became the deputy director of the experimental workshop, his temper has calmed down a lot. Although he still puts on a bit of airs, he still has plenty of things to do. There is still a certain prestige in the entire experimental workshop.

During this year's Chinese New Year, he finally understood the benefits of being a leader. In addition to the normal benefits, each leader was given two extra carp, a pound of mutton, a large front door and two bottles of Erguotou according to their level. His salary increased by more than ten dollars. Not to mention the dollar amount, the corresponding bills have increased a lot, especially the scarce bills such as tea tickets and snack tickets.

Tonight's New Year's Eve dinner also used all the cooking skills of the second aunt. She made eight dishes. Scrambled eggs are the eternal protagonist of the second uncle's family.

But this year he made an exception and had a few drinks with his three sons.

The third uncle's family still abides by the old rules, or else he is a cultured person!

According to the old rules, the New Year's Eve dinner is divided into two meals. The first is rice and stir-fried vegetables at five or six o'clock in the evening.

The usual machine rice is replaced by Xiaozhan rice, and braised hairtail fish, casserole tofu, lion head or Sixi meatballs, and bean sprouts are added. This is the most important and sumptuous meal of the year, and there must be fish in the dish. , which brings the auspiciousness of "abundance every year".

There are so many varieties, but the portion is enough for a family to eat, but the third uncle, who is very prudent on budget, can eat it from New Year's Eve to the next fifteenth.

After eating, it is purely a personal hobby to clear up the food, count the peanuts, and then distribute them to several children.

At 12 o'clock at night, the whole family will eat dumplings together. Other people's dumplings will be made of Fuqiang flour, which is much whiter than the standard flour eaten daily. It is usually stuffed with pork and cabbage, sometimes with sauerkraut. I don't know what the third uncle uses. Noodles, what's the filling?

As for watching the New Year's Eve or something like that, Jiang Yan has no interest at all. Anyway, there are many people around his grandma, and he is not the least of them.

Jiang Yan hated the Spring Festival Gala before, but now he misses him so much.

But now, even if Jiang Yan gets a TV, there are very few TV programs in this era.

It wasn't even twelve o'clock yet. Jiang Yan and his grandma said hello and returned to their house. After closing the door, he came directly to his own space.

He put a pool of hot water in the bathtub in his bathroom and put on some soothing music. After taking off his clothes, Jiang Yan lay down directly in it.

The hot water washed away the fatigue from my body, which also made me completely relaxed.

I have been busy for so long since I came back, and I have never been able to clear my mind like I did today. It has been more than six years since a came to this world unknowingly. Jiang Yan doesn’t remember many things about the future generations very clearly. He is getting more and more adapted to this society. If he didn’t have the space to occasionally see things like the future generations, Jiang Yan almost regarded himself as a native of this world.

To be honest, Jiang Yan himself is not a very hard-working person, and if he really tries hard now, he just has to catch up.

However, my own efforts still have this effect. Whenever I see the product being produced by my own hands, it feels good.

55 years have passed by unknowingly, and 56 years have arrived. I should continue to work hard in the coming year.
