Grandpa Ye Yaozu had no idea about this and had not known about the twelve-course meal that was rare and uncommon for Chinese New Year today, but it was a standard dish that was often on the table in his family every day.

My grandmother, Wang Cuihua, was the daughter of a landlord. She was a wealthy woman. Although she didn't eat and drink like this every day, she would do so once every one or two months.

Satisfy your cravings!

I had a really happy New Year.

Yingbao recalled that it was less than five o'clock today and the sky was still dark. The temperature outside had dropped sharply, but it did not affect the villagers' attention to the New Year.

A few loud firecrackers suddenly rang out, like a ritual, opening a new chapter for the New Year in the village.

……

In the early morning when Yingbao and his brothers and cousins ​​were still sleeping and dreaming, every household in the village put up Spring Festival couplets, blessing characters and various window decorations with bright red and black fonts.

These are all my family’s stock from earlier years, and some are also made by myself.

Some families in the village also put away the Spring Festival couplets they posted last year and continue to use them next year for good luck and happiness.

There’s nothing I can do, it’s all because of poverty!

People are afraid of being poor, so they habitually save when they should.

The Ye family used to be like this.

This is because of Yingbao, who she replaced secretly.

It took me a long time to find a style of Spring Festival couplets in the space that was almost the same as the original ones of the Ye family.

There really is no one else like him.

She kept saying that it was in the space, it was in the space, but grandma refused to let her take it out.

I wonder if she was afraid that the Spring Festival couplets she took out would not match those from previous years?

Or is it because the older generation has experienced and witnessed too many poor days and is used to being frugal?

Yingbao doesn’t understand and can’t figure it out, so there’s no need to bother.

Just do it secretly.

Since her grandma didn't allow her to change it openly, she changed it secretly. This should be okay, right?

Anyway, only God knows.

And she herself knows it.

Who can know?

She didn't change the window paper because she only had the modern plastic paper window paper in her space, which was put directly on the glass after getting wet and smeared. Once it was smoothed, it was directly pasted on.

The second reason is that even if she had the same window paper, it was only red or light red paper, and did not have the complete window paper pattern.

It's easy to be exposed.

Besides, the hands of grandma, mother, eldest aunt, second aunt, and younger aunt are quite skillful.

Look at the window paper-cuts they cut and pasted, there are fish leaping over the dragon gate, flowers blooming in wealth... Each one is lifelike, vivid and pleasing to the eye.

It makes people happy when they see it.

Yingbao also wanted to try cutting one, but she overestimated her ability to do it.

She has clumsy hands.

Can't cut it out.

. . . . . .

Let’s just eat. I don’t want to think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

Why didn't she inherit the dexterity of her mother and grandmother?

Humph, this is really infuriating.

……

The delicious food exudes an enticing aroma, making people salivate.

Grandpa Ye Yaozu and grandma Wang Cuihua sat in the main seats, their wrinkled smiles revealing the traces of time.

The two of them were holding hands under the table and were discovered by the sharp-eyed Ying Bao, but she did not say anything to expose them. She was just stimulated invisibly.

She really doesn't want to eat this wave of dog food!

Please do not force feed.

but,

After watching it for a long time, I no longer feel that they are showing off their love. Instead, I am moved by the warm atmosphere of the grandparents holding hands, tolerating and supporting each other for most of their lives.

They sat there like a beautiful painting, and no one wanted to disturb them.
