Back to seven or seven kinds of fields to raise children

Alas, if I knew it would be today, I would have to treat the third daughter-in-law better.

Chapter 729 New Year's Eve is Children's Day

"Sister-in-law, what does my family say to help or not?

As long as Shiyan can arrange it, he will definitely not refuse. "Su Anying laughed when she heard that.

Her personality has always been like this, she never holds grudges, and never takes the past to heart.

They are all descendants of the old Xu's family, and the children are promising, and their uncles and aunts also have glory on their faces.

When Su Anying said that, Xue Xiulin was naturally happy, so she dragged Su Anying to have a drink.

The sisters-in-law were laughing and making noise, and the big guys didn't drink less.

Fortunately, the ice wine was not high in alcohol content, so they didn't get drunk.

The whole family was reunited, and the meal was very lively.

Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan looked at the room full of people, and the smile on their faces never stopped.

After the reunion dinner, I quickly packed up, then took a rest, and started chopping meat and vegetables to make dumplings.

The children were sent to stare in a daze for a while, so that they would not have the energy to watch the new year at night.

At 06:30 in the evening, I started making dumplings. By [-] o'clock, the dumplings had already been half made.

Just at this time, the party also started, and the big guys were making dumplings while watching TV.

The party has been going on for several years, and it has not been as attractive to children as it was in the first few years when there were televisions.

Cross talk, sketches, etc. are okay, and children can sit still.

But when they were replaced by singers, dancers and opera singers, Xu Haitao and Xu Haibin felt as if they had nails growing on their buttocks, they couldn't sit still at all.

"Let's go, let's go out and set off cannons? This stuff is ugly and boring.

Let's fire the cannon for a while, and watch the sketch when we come back, isn't it good? "

The host announced the curtain, saying that the next solo was coming, so Xu Haitao leaned next to Xu Haibin and Xu Haiyuan, muttering in a low voice.

Boys, sit still less.

Especially this Chinese New Year, there are a lot of firecrackers at home, and the sound of firecrackers is still heard outside from time to time.

The children also had grass growing in their hearts, so when Xu Haitao said it, these children's eyes widened and they became more energetic.

"Okay, my dad bought a lot of cannons, I know where they are, let's go."

Xu Haiyuan looked at the singing on TV and felt that it was meaningless.

So I ran to the inner room of the east room and dug out a lot of firecrackers from the cabinet.

A few boys put on their coats and hats, went to the stove to pull out some firewood with sparks on the front, and went out to set off the cannons.

For Chinese New Year, the family bought a lot of firecrackers, all kinds of them.

Xu Haiyuan made a lot of them and put them on the ground. Then Xu Haitao and the others took the firewood with sparks and lit the fuse of the firecracker.

Afterwards, the yard became lively, and there was a lot of noise and movement.

From time to time, the Diamond Monkey flew out with a squeak and exploded in the air.

Otherwise, there are flashing thunder and colorful pearls, which not only explode, but also burst out in various colors, and the reflected yard is lit up.

"These brats, it's not time to distribute the papers yet, they are messing around."

Xu Shixian heard the commotion outside, shook his head, and wanted to get up and call the children back.

Don't let off all the firecrackers, it's useless to distribute papers later.

"Brother, don't worry, there are plenty of firecrackers at home.

Let them do whatever they want, the kid is like this, usually no one can make a fuss with him.

This time the six boys got together, it's good that they didn't lift the roof of the house, let them go. "

There are boys in the family making noise, and the Chinese New Year is lively.

Let's celebrate the New Year as usual, Xu Haiyuan likes to be quiet, and Xu Haiqing is still young and dare not make a fuss, so Xu Shiyan has to lead his sons out to set off cannons.

This year, the six cousins ​​got together. When Xu Haibo, Xu Haitao, and Xu Haibin were all fearless, with the three of them taking the lead, Xu Haiyuan and the others followed suit.

It's good, the Chinese New Year is all about being lively, it's not fun if it's not lively.

Xu Shiyan thought about it that day when he said that his brothers would be at home for the New Year.

I specially pulled some firecrackers back from the participating stores, just for the children to play.

Who is celebrating the New Year?It's just children, without children jumping around, what's the point of celebrating the New Year?

After Xu Shiyan said that, Xu Shixian didn't go out again, and sat down to eat melon seeds and drink tea while watching TV.

It happened to be a skit next, the skits of this year are carefully prepared, full of jokes, very funny.

No matter the audience in front of the TV or in the studio, they were all amused by the sketch actors on the stage.

At nine o'clock, all the dumplings were wrapped, and there were so many people in the family that seven or eight curtains were wrapped.

Zhou Guilan rummaged through the cabinet to find a few clean white cloths, covered the dumplings, and took them out.

In the past, the white flour bag was a white cloth bag with a red or blue thread woven at both ends.

Most people save the flour bags, wash them out specially, and then unravel the seams to form a square piece of cloth.

Keeping it as a furoshiki and making an apron are good things.

It will take a few more years before the woven bag-style noodle bags will come out. Once the woven bags come out, there will be no more cloth noodle bags.

Xu's life is good and there is no shortage of flour, so they have saved a lot of flour bags.

Zhou Guilan was cleaned up and kept for things like coverings.

The dumplings are made, and there is still a while before the paper is issued, and everyone sits down to watch TV.

Seeing the wonderful and funny program, each of them leaned forward and back together with laughter, full of joy.

"By the way, these are apples and pears from our hometown. The third son and his unit brought back several truckloads this year to give benefits to workers. Come and taste them."

Zhou Guilan suddenly remembered that there were still fruits at home, so she hurriedly found them out and washed them, and brought a basin for everyone to eat.

"Well, this apple is very good, very sweet and crunchy, doesn't our hometown also have good things?"

Xu Shixian took an apple and took a bite, it was crunchy and sweet and delicious.

"This pear is not the old variety, but it's still very good."

Over there, Xu Chenghou took the pear and looked at it for a long time.

It's not the varieties in his memory. Take a bite and try it, it's okay, it's delicious.

"At our end, the place is too remote, the roads are not good, and some good things cannot be transported out.

If the road here can be repaired properly, the other end will not be poor. "Xu Chenghou sighed while eating pears.

"Third brother, your unit is better. In this year's situation, you still have money to give benefits to employees."

Xu Shixian muttered while nibbling on an apple.

"I still don't understand this year, he used the big flower basket to hold the fruit.

Moreover, the preparations over there are not sufficient, and the quantity is not enough.

After the things were shipped back, I saw that they could only be eaten evenly.

I told Brother Qu that next year, you can use that kind of bamboo basket or cardboard box, which is more convenient and better than this one. "

Xu Shiyan also took an apple and gnawed on it. Not to mention, this apple is really delicious, better than that of Guoguang, and quite sweet.

"Our unit is okay, anyway, we got through this year, but I don't know what will happen next autumn.

Take a look at the Spring Fair. If the orders are good at the Spring Fair next year, it will be fine.

If there is no order at the Spring Fair, it may not be so good next year.

No matter what the situation is, let the workers have a good year. "

Chapter 7 Thirty

It was less than eleven o'clock, and there were bursts of crackling firecrackers outside.

Xu Chenghou couldn't sit still when he heard the commotion outside.

"Otherwise, let's distribute papers earlier? The children eat earlier and play for a while after eating. They should be sleepy."

Xu Chenghou turned his head and asked Zhou Guilan.

"Okay, then go early. Then you lead the sons to distribute papers, and I will cook dumplings."

Zhou Guilan looked at the clock on the wall, it was only 45:[-].

Okay, it's better to be early, the wonderful sketches are coming later, I cooked the dumplings earlier, and I just went back to the house to watch the sketches.

In this way, Xu Chenghou led his sons, carried the table out, and put steamed buns, chicken, fish, and meat on it.

There are no incense burner bowls at home, so I put two bowls that I don't usually use, filled them with plant ash and pressed them firmly.

Xu Chenghou took his son to work outside, while Zhou Guilan led his daughter-in-law to work in the kitchen.

There was already a fire in the kitchen, and there was hot water in the pot.

Now add more dry firewood to the bottom of the pot, and the flames will ignite all of a sudden, and the water in the pot will be overturned in a short time.

"The water is boiling." Zhou Guilan yelled outside.

Outside, Xu Chenghou ordered his eldest son to light the firecrackers, and here he lit three sticks of incense, and then lit a large pile of printed burning paper.

"Come on, all of you come over and kowtow. Xiaobo, lead your brother and the others over here too."

Xu Chenghou greeted his children and grandchildren, followed behind him, and all knelt down and kowtowed.

Afterwards, the children lit a lot of firecrackers in the yard, and Xu Jinfeng and the others also lit some silent fireworks to watch the excitement.

The sisters Xu Jinping and the others were still holding the ground tendons in their hands and lit the whole place.

The dogs at home are all old, and setting off firecrackers once a year can no longer affect them.

The dogs lay peacefully in the nest, making as much noise outside as they liked, and the children jumped as much as they wanted, without even making a sound.

Xu Chenghou looked at the children and grandchildren all over the yard, he couldn't close his mouth with joy.

"Don't you have a lot of firecrackers at home? Take it out and let it go, just as the children are there, take it out and let it go lively."

Seeing that the children were having fun, the old man urged Xu Shiyan to go back to the house and take out all the firecrackers.

Xu Shiyan didn't say anything else, and went into the room and brought out half a basket of fireworks and small cannons of various colors.

The boys fight for the firecrackers, and the girls fight for the fireworks. Anyway, the yard is big and they don't interfere with each other.

Now the yard is bustling with jingle sounds over there, and the yard illuminated by colorful fireworks here is much brighter.

The children were jumping and jumping in the yard, and the cold wind on New Year's Eve did not affect them at all.

At the same time as the firecrackers were set off outside, the dumplings were also cooked in the kitchen.

After the children set off the firecrackers and fireworks, the dumplings in the pot are cooked and taken out, and served on the table.

"Okay, let's all come back to eat."

The temperature was low on New Year's Eve, and the children's faces were flushed from the cold while they were outside.

As soon as grandma yelled to eat dumplings, a large group of hula la ran into the house.

After entering the house, he took off his hat and coat, and the boys jumped on the kang directly. The older girls all went to the kitchen to help serve dishes, chopsticks and small dishes.

The hot dumplings were served, and the whole family sat down.

Zhou Guilan looked at the people in this room, and she was also very happy.

"Okay, let's eat with chopsticks. Today's dumplings have several fillings. You can eat whatever you want."

According to the old rules, the dumplings are still filled with coins, peanuts, jujubes, and sugar.

The children didn't want to eat the dumplings, they just wanted to eat the money in them. They stared at each other to see which dumpling looked like.
