Rebirth of Siheyuan: Starting from escaping famine in 42

Early the next morning.

Li Qingfeng and his group changed into clean clothes, had breakfast at the guesthouse, and then went to his father's residence.

Today is New Year's Eve. I have to be busy all day and have to go early in the morning.

Arriving at his father's residence, Li Qingfeng asked his father to look after the children.

Then Li Qingfeng and the other three went about their own business.

Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu went into the house and went to the kitchen to fry New Year's goods.

His younger brother Li Qingshan first put up the couplets under his father's instructions, and then he sat in the yard to wash, pick, cut and prepare vegetables.

Li Qingfeng moved a table into the yard and used a chopping board and a kitchen knife to chop the meat filling for dumplings.

For lunch, the whole family ate freshly fried New Year's goods, braised meat prepared last night, and two stir-fried vegetarian dishes.

Li Qingshan said while eating, "My brother's stewed offal is still the most flavorful, Weiguo, don't you think so?"

Li Weiguo swallowed the food in his mouth, nodded and was about to speak, but was interrupted by his younger brother and sister.

Li Weihong looked up and said, "Yes, my father's cooking is the best."

Li Weijun said: "Everything my father cooks tastes good."

Li Weidong was talking about getting rich, and said vaguely: "Good...good times."

Only Li Weimin remained silent. He lowered his head and concentrated on eating the meat and vegetables his mother picked for him.

Hearing this, Li Qingfeng picked up some braised meat for the little ones with chopsticks and said with a smile, "If it tastes good, eat more."

Li Chengman drank some wine, ate some braised meat, squinted his eyes and watched it all happily, feeling very satisfied.

Finish the meal and drink.

Li Chengman took the five children outside to play, while Li Qingfeng and the other three cleaned up the mess on the table after dinner.

After cleaning up, they had fried all the New Year's goods and done everything that needed to be done.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so the four of them took out poker and started playing upgrades.

After a while, Li Chengman, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but get itchy hands and waited until the game was over.

Li Chengman quickly patted Li Qingshan on the shoulder and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "Qingshan, you go to the side first, I'll fight for a while."

Hearing this, Li Qingshan stood up and gave up his seat, standing aside and reluctantly said: "Dad, do you know the rules of upgrading? Just fight."

"Nonsense, your father is smart!"

Li Chengman rolled his eyes at Li Qingshan, then said to Li Qingfeng and his two daughters-in-law, "Shuffle the cards, and let's continue playing."

Seeing that their father seemed very interested, Li Qingfeng, Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu did not hesitate and just played with him.

Unexpectedly, after a round of upgrading, Li Qingfeng and his father won. At the beginning, his father was not familiar with the rules and played cards while asking Li Qingshan.

But his father became more and more skilled at playing cards. Unexpectedly, his father was also a master at playing cards. Li Qingshan, who was standing aside, looked at his father in surprise.

The card game lasted until almost five o'clock. Li Qingfeng stood up, stretched, and said, "Dad, let's not play for now. I'm going to go cook. We'll play after we finish the New Year's Eve dinner."

Li Chengman nodded and replied with a smile: "Okay, go ahead and get busy! Qingshan, go help your brother."

"Got it, Dad."

Li Qingshan followed Li Qingfeng out of the house.

Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu cleaned up the table and brought the prepared dumpling filling. One kneaded the dough and rolled out the skin, while the other made the dumplings.

In order to prevent his younger brothers and sisters from acting naughty, Li Weiguo took them to the yard to play. From time to time, they would sniff the aroma of meat that filled the yard.

Li Chengman was the only one with nothing to do. He wanted to help make dumplings, but his two daughters-in-law wouldn't let him. So he had to take a stool and sit in the yard, watching the children play.

It took Li Qingfeng more than an hour to prepare a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner with great effort.

Why is the scarf so thoughtful! The main reason is that this place is not the same as Sijiu City. In Sijiu City, Li Qingfeng just found a deserted place and took the food out of the space and went home. His family thought he bought it outside.

But it doesn't work in the military area. Li Qingfeng is here for the first time and is unfamiliar with the place. If he takes out food from the space, it may be okay if he only takes a little, but it will be difficult to deal with him if he takes out too much.

So Li Qingfeng used the meat and vegetables he had just bought to make a table of dishes, and added meatballs, vegetarian meatballs and the like fried by Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu.

Tonight’s New Year’s Eve dinner is still very sumptuous. At least the New Year’s Eve dinner of ordinary people is not as good as the one here.

After all the dishes were ready, Li Qingshan took the wine bottle and filled the glasses of his father and eldest brother. He smiled and said to his father Li Chengman: "Dad, don't you want to say a few words?"

Hearing this, Li Chengman saw that everyone at the table was looking at him, smiled, and then said, "Okay, I'll say one thing."

"This year's New Year's Eve is a family reunion year. Both of you brothers brought your families to visit me. I am very happy."

Turning his head to look at the family in front of the table, he saw the children staring at the food on the table, swallowing their saliva, and then said, "No, no more words, let's have a toast and then eat, the children are hungry."

As he spoke, Li Chengman picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork for each of his five grandchildren.

"hehe!"

Li Qingfeng and the other three adults laughed when they saw the children swallowing their saliva frantically, then raised their glasses and clinked them with each other, even Wei Guo, Wei Dong and the other three were no exception.

Wu Lirong, Qin Huairu and their five children all drank the sugar water.

Afterwards, Li Qingfeng and Li Qingshan accompanied their father to drink.

Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu were eating their dishes while picking up some food for the children.

During this time, the joyful laughter of children could be heard from time to time.

When they were almost done eating, Li Qingfeng and Li Qingshan, along with their wives and children, kowtowed to Li Chengman and said New Year greetings.

Li Chengman took out nine red envelopes with a smile on his face, one for each person, no matter big or small.

Afterwards, Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu took the children's red envelopes, saying that they were saving them for them to use when they went to school in the future.

Then the two of them took two covers of wrapped dumplings to the kitchen to cook them.

Weiguo and the other three had already eaten their fill of the vegetables, and without even eating their dumplings they went to read picture books aside.

Li Chengman wanted to play cards after dinner, so he drank two glasses of white wine and then stopped. When the dumplings were served, he ate a plate of dumplings, lit a cigarette, and started playing cards.

Li Qingfeng and Li Qingshan looked at their father speechlessly. After glaring at him, they obediently finished the dumplings on the plate quickly.

After dinner, I waited for Wu Lirong and Qin Huairu to wash the dishes and clean up.

Li Qingfeng grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stepped aside, giving his seat to his younger brother.

After watching them play cards for a while, Li Qingfeng sat next to the children, eating melon seeds, and watching them read books or play games.

At this time, Li Weiguo came over and whispered in Li Qingfeng's ear: "Dad, aren't we going to set off firecrackers tonight?"
