Traveling through shopping malls, making a fortune by selling instant noodles

In the afternoon, everyone gathered together to play chess and build Lego, and time passed quickly.

They had dinner early because Qiao Jingnian and the others had to go back to Qingfeng Town soon. Empress Dowager Rong and the others knew that there was Old Man Le there, and since it was already evening, a dark and windy night, they were still worried about them traveling too late.

So Empress Dowager Rong started preparing dinner at around four o'clock, and they could start eating before five o'clock.

Lin Yutang felt that she had not yet digested the hot pot, barbecue and desserts at noon, and she had been eating snacks and drinking drinks all afternoon, so she had a delicious dinner.

But, isn’t the Chinese New Year all about eating, drinking and having fun? Otherwise, where did the classic saying about gaining three pounds during every festive season come from?

Lin Yutang thought of the Chinese New Year when she was a child, which was the happiest time. She would have food to eat and red envelopes to receive when she paid New Year's greetings. She would show off tangerines to everyone's house and her pockets would be filled with melon seeds and peanuts.

If someone can put a Want Want gift package on the table, they will definitely win the love of all the children!

Sometimes the adults are busy playing cards at night, so they start eating dinner at around four o'clock.

For children who have been eating non-stop all afternoon, the dinner table may be dedicated to fried shrimp cakes and fried chicken nuggets. After eating what they want to eat, they will sneak out to set off sparklers.

Throwing little goldfish during the day and playing with fairy wands at night, the New Year atmosphere is really there!

Later, when I grew up, I felt that no matter whose house I went to, everyone was holding a mobile phone, taking a picture of the New Year’s Eve dinner and posting it on WeChat Moments, and the New Year was considered over.

Later, my grandma passed away, and I didn’t want to celebrate the New Year alone anymore. On the day when the whole family was reunited, I would stay at home and watch the Spring Festival Gala, listen to the crackling sound of firecrackers, and eat three or two dishes. That was the end of the New Year.

Until recent years, fireworks and firecrackers were banned everywhere, and the only remaining part of the New Year atmosphere was the Spring Festival Gala.

"Tangtang, what are you thinking about?"

Qiao Jingnian's concerned voice came from beside him. Lin Yutang came to her senses, blinked mischievously, and said to him in a low voice:

"I thought we could play with fireworks together after dinner."

"Good~"

Qiao Jingnian didn't ask her what kind of fireworks they were. He would just accompany her no matter what she did.

In the kitchen, Chef Li opened an insulated bag. This was placed in the kitchen by the prince and his companions when they came in the morning. He said there were dumplings in it and they would cook them in the evening and serve them together.

When Chef Li opened the thermal bag, he found four bags of different colors inside, with a layer of "ice cubes" at the bottom.

“There are no glutinous rice balls here?”

Chef Li was completely confused. He emptied the thermos bag but didn't see a single glutinous rice ball.

"What are you looking for? This is it!"

Chef Yan picked up the two bags that Chef Li had placed aside and said.

"Ah? This is it?"

Chef Li was in disbelief, but when he took a closer look at the pattern on the packaging bag, he saw a bowl of gold ingots, one of which had been bitten open, revealing a golden filling inside. He wondered what it tasted like?

On top of another bag was a bowl of plump "persimmons", one of which had been bitten, revealing the tempting black sesame filling inside.

“Is this a glutinous rice dumpling?!

These dumplings are so pretty! "

Chef Li sighed as he and Chef Yan unwrapped a package of glutinous rice balls, revealing the tightly frozen dumplings. Although they were small, they looked quite delicate.

"Cook two packets. The prince said to leave the other two packets for us, hehe."

Chef Yan smiled happily. Every time the prince and princess came, they had something to eat.

After the dumplings were cooked, Aunt Gui took them away. The masters' dishes were done, and the people in the kitchen started to busy themselves with their own dinner. Today, there were also small dumplings as a snack~

"Huh? What is this?"

Emperor Huaiwen saw Nanny Gui put down a large bowl of soup, and saw that there were "gold ingots" and "small persimmons" in the bowl! He really couldn't understand what kind of soup this was.

"These are the dumplings that the prince brought."

Aunt Gui explained with a smile.

“Is this a glutinous rice dumpling?!

How come this glutinous rice dumpling looks so good?!"

Empress Dowager Rong instinctively took out her cell phone to record the beautiful dumplings.

Empress Ning, Emperor Huaiwen, and even Qiao Yuqian all turned on their cameras. With the blessing of this bowl of glutinous rice balls with the words "rolling in wealth" and "every wish coming true", the dinner became more sumptuous and beautiful!

Why are the glutinous rice balls so beautiful this year?
