Mrs. Li came in from the outside, and she was also happy to see her grandchildren so harmonious.

She picked up her granddaughter and told her two grandchildren, "You guys are growing up too, so you will spend more time walking outside.

Be more mindful and don't worry about small things at home. "

Jiaren Jiayi knew that this was referring to their mother, so they nodded slightly...

Chinese New Year is the busiest time of the year, even if it is as deserted as Qingshui Village, people come and go at this time.

Li's second son took Jiaren to the village head's house and the old men next door, and gave them a new year's gift.

It's nothing expensive, it's nothing more than fried twist balls and a few fresh fruits at home.

But the village chief and the old men were overjoyed, and stopped them from talking for a long time.

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru, two sisters-in-law, also went to the homes of Second Aunt Sun and Aunt Wu to thank them for their wholehearted help.

Today, Tao Hongying's work on the stove and Jiaren's study are all due to others.

The two families were also overjoyed, and they gave equally generous gifts in return.

Needless to say, we will definitely get closer together in the future.

After being so busy, on the eve of the New Year's Eve, Li, young and old, got up early and put on new clothes and shoes.

The life of the family is not considered affluent, some people have new coats, some have new shoes, they are all different, but they are all needed and happy.

Of course, Jiayin, the baby of the whole family, has been replaced from head to toe.

Red jacket and trousers, a small hat of color matching brocade, and butterfly shoes are a bit big, tied around the ankle with a belt.

There is a silver collar hanging on the chest, a longevity lock, and a red string on the wrist wearing silver beads.

Dressed like this, it made her more white, plump and cute. When she smiled, she showed two small teeth, like a doll in a New Year's painting, and she was extremely happy.

The whole family likes it badly, this hug, that kiss, is worthy of the name.

Mrs. Li made the decision to let Jiaren and Jiayi hug more, and the two grandsons are often outside, so they will be more blessed and lucky.

There is no farm work in winter, and almost only two meals a day are eaten, and the New Year is no exception.

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru were busy frying and frying in the kitchen without touching the floor.

Li Lao Er, Li Lao San and Li Lao Si went to treat guests next door together.

None of the six old men next door had any children or grandchildren, so at a time like this, it was unavoidable to be deserted and lonely.

The Li family had discussed it a long time ago and invited them to come over for a reunion dinner.

But the old men don't know, they are gathering together right now, and they are in a hurry to start cooking.

As a result, the three brothers of the Li family came to invite them, and their eyes became red.

"No, for Chinese New Year, if you reunite with your own family, we won't join in the fun."

"Yeah, you see, we have also prepared New Year's goods, and there is no shortage of food."

Several old men refused, but Li's second son stepped forward to help Uncle Zhao.

"Uncle, our house is ready and we have bought wine.

This meal will be eaten at our house first, and I will send you back to cook dumplings by yourself in the evening. "

After talking, he went out, and Li Laosan and Li Laosi followed suit.

So, a few old men were "invited" to the Li family's yard with half push and half push.

In Lijiatang's room, the big round table had been put down, and the room was burning warmly into the spring.

Jiaxi and Jiaan ran around in and out, helping to hold the dishes, stealing a bite from time to time, but Tao Hongying laughed and scolded her.

Lively and joyful, it is simply blowing over the face.

Mrs. Li hugged Jiayin, welcomed a few old men into the door, and said with a smile.

"Brothers, don't be too polite. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Let's celebrate the New Year together."

The old men were really moved and terrified, and before they could speak, they were helped to sit up again.

Soon, sumptuous meals were served one after another.

Stewed elbow, braised fish cubes, white meat with mashed garlic, mutton stewed radish, fried chicken with fungus...

Nine dishes and one soup, plus a large bowl of snow-white rice, really made everyone swallow their mouths secretly.

Even Wu Cuihua, who had been pretending to be sick, ran out early, staring at the food, wishing she could do something right away.

Li Laoer filled the wine bowls for the old men, and their brothers, together with the three eldest children of Jia Ren's family and Yi Jiahuan's, also got half a bowl.

The wine bowls were picked up, and they jingled together, and a year's hard work was comforted.

The men drank and ate vegetables, while the women and children chatted while eating, and the smell of wine and vegetables filled the room.

Jiayin also got a bowl of egg custard for the first time, without salt, and only ordered a little soy sauce.

But Tao Hongying's craftsmanship is really good. The custard is steamed without honeycomb, and it is as tender as jelly.

It's so friendly to a toothless person like her.

She ate half a bowl in one go, and wanted to eat more, but was stopped by Mrs. Li.

I'm afraid she eats too much and her stomach hurts from overeating.

Jiayin could only watch helplessly, and the remaining half of the bowl went into Jiaxi Jiaan's mouth.

Everyone was amused by her pitiful appearance.

"This kid looks like he likes to eat. I don't have to worry about losing weight in the future."

"Blessed child!"

Jiayin was pinched under the armpit by her grandma, and she ran a few highs on her legs, which was regarded as exercise after meals.

Jiaxi and Jiaan hiccupped while eating, and were kicked off the table, and carried their younger sister to the big kang to play in the house.

Jiayin rode the horse for another half hour before the wine tables in the main room dispersed.

The old men didn't drink less, their faces were red and their feet were loose.

Brother Li's second brother sent them back again, bringing a gailian full of frozen dumplings with cabbage and pork.

The old men sobered up and it was getting dark, so they can be cooked in a pot and eaten.

The village chief was worried at home, so he came to see the old brothers.

In the end, they saw that their faces were flushed from drinking, and they were sleeping in a mess on the warm kang.

No need to guess, he also knew that this was borrowing the light of leaving home.

So, he went back with peace of mind, and when he talked to his old wife, he praised the Li family without a word.

It is rare for the Li family to be free at this time, eating melon seeds and peanuts while gossiping.

Mrs. Li took the money bag and distributed two taels of silver to each of the three sons.

"Although there is no separate family and the money belongs to the public, you all have small families.

You can't have any spare money in your hand, you take all these two taels of silver.

If you want to buy anything, arrange it yourself. "

Li Lao Er still wanted to refuse, but Wu Cuihua quickly made a move, grabbing the money and going to run away.

He pulled it back, snatched the silver and stuffed it into his arms.

Wu Cuihua was so angry that she was half dead, and seeing that the two sons bowed their heads, it was obvious that they would not help her.

She stomped her feet hard, turned around and went back to the house.

Zhao Yuru softened her heart and said in a low voice.

"Do you want to persuade the second sister-in-law?"

"No need," Li Er Er waved his hand, "The dumplings will come out after a while."

Everyone couldn't help but hold back their laughter when they thought of Wu Cuihua's eating behavior just now.

Li Laoer was afraid that his two sons would be soft-hearted, so he ordered again.

"Your mother asks you for money, but she won't give you a single penny.

She was afraid that she would find money for Er Gouzi to pay off his gambling debts. "

Jiaren and Jiayi quickly nodded, Mrs. Li didn't want her grandchildren to suffer, so she quickly took out the money again.

There are three Jiaren, Yijiahuan, those who read books, those who walk darts, those who go to the stove, and those who go to the stove.

They were all at the age of sharing for the family, and each of them got [-] Wen pocket money.

And Jiaxi and Jia'an got fifty Chinese New Year's money alone.

The boys were all happy, especially Jiaxijiaan, who clamored to buy candied haws for a while, but then changed their minds and wanted to buy candied people.

This posture is like spending dozens of pennies and dozens of taels.

Jiayin's heart was itchy, and she lay in grandma's arms and protested.

The old lady understood and patted her on the back.

Sure enough, after it got dark, Jiayin yawned, and the old lady carried her into the house.

Then he secretly took a five-liang silver coin and put it under his granddaughter's pillow.
