Chapter 547 New Year's Eve Dinner

Going out alone, he went to the lake and used a tool to cut through the ice, and then threw something into it at will to catch the fish. After picking a few fish, it was finally his turn to jump out of a big carp weighing several kilograms.

What Zhang Chi didn't expect was that what jumped out was a red carp, that is, a red carp all over.

So Zhang Chi returned to the house with the carp.

"Hey, a red carp, there is really no way to say this year's luck."

It was Sun Yanping who saw the red carp for the first time. He happily took the carp and said auspicious words at the same time.

"When will there be red carp in the pond?"

After Zhang Jiaren heard this, he also took another look curiously.

The old man thought the red carp was very festive, and didn't think that the red carp was a fairy or ghost, let alone said that the red carp could not be eaten. After leaving a word, he went to busy himself with the work at hand.

Sun Yanping carried the red carp all the way through the living room, anyone who saw the red carp would open their mouths to say something.

At this moment, the women are cooking the New Year's Eve dinner under the leadership of Miao Guifang, and they are performing their own duties. Fortunately, Zhang Chi's kitchen is not small, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

In the end, Zhang Juan, who was the closest, found out, and immediately put on a straight face. Just as she was about to get angry at her son, she was spotted by Li Xiumei who was next to her.

Sun Yanping said: "Are you going to buy a ranch? You sell cows and milk at the same time. After all, you have to open up the two pastures here. The family's land is now divided into two parts. Two bucks."

Sun Yanping bumped into his brother-in-law and asked casually, "What big moves are you going to make next year?"

These two things are like a bottomless pit. If you can’t feed them enough, there is no way to feed them. If you let them eat, they can feed themselves to death, so Zhang Chi asked Isaac’s gang to calculate a day About how much to eat is appropriate, and don’t be too precise, just give a rough idea.

Zhang Chi and his wife have no idea at all. No matter what kind of gadgets they are selling, the couple are working hard today. They are pure playboys, and they don't want to do anything that contributes.

As the head of the family, Zhang Jiaren's toasts are indispensable, but they are nothing new, and they are not composing poems or holding lyric meetings. The festive words have been spoken for thousands of years, and they are not the same old ones.

For the New Year’s Eve dinner, the fish must be braised in soy sauce. A whole big fish cannot be cut or turned over. The fish must be big enough, because if the family is large enough, the fish may not be able to eat this plate of fish for the third day of junior high school.

The meaning is important, there is no need to make it too formal, some things will be boring if they are too formal.

Now the two bear cubs immediately became honest, each holding a big bone, and gnawed on the ground happily.

In some cases, there is only a family reunion, sitting together in harmony and beauty.

To say that this person is smart, both Shiren and Bailao are far behind Moji, look, now Moji knows to lean against Miao Guifang, and with a hum, the old lady bows her head to give him a piece of food.

Xiao Xiao is not ready to give up, this kid is broken now, at the age when cats hate dogs, not because he likes to eat, but just Shiren and Bai Lao are watching, he can eat for hours, nothing else For the sake of the two poor bears.

Zhang Chi said: "I can't do anything about it, unless Lao Liu wants to sell it, otherwise I really don't have the ability."

Zhang Juan explained: "Originally there wasn't any, but today Xiaoxiao wants to eat scrambled rice with tomatoes and eggs, so Auntie fried a plate for her."

In the house, Zhang Chi and his family were all there, plus Zhang Youliang and Gu Ying. From the perspective of nostalgia, Zhang Youliang was raised in front of Zhang Jiaren before, so the relationship is not comparable to other relatives, so the New Year is at Zhang Jiaren's house. Not too much.

In his heart, Zhang Chi conducted in-depth spiritual criticism and analysis of his grandfather and father.

These two people can't listen to criticism, which is very bad, but Zhang Chi still dare not say it.

From this point of view, except for Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu brothers who are far away in California, the North American branch of Lao Zhang's family can be said to be neat.

A table full of dishes, such as those that fly in the sky, those that run on the ground, those that swim in the river, and those that grow in the sea. Each of these dishes on this table is represented by two or three of these dishes.

"Try this, the tomatoes in Dachi's shed are really good, it doesn't look like something in the shed, it tastes like it's in season...".

Xiaoxiao held the bone in his hand again, licking back and forth on the smooth bone.

Of course, I dare not say it. If I say it, Zhang Chi suspects that his grandfather can grab the soles of his shoes and drive him two miles. As for what I will do if I hear it, it is not likely to stir-fry meat with a belt, but it is estimated to be almost the same.

They are indispensable in every community activity, and they are more American than Americans.

Also after eating, the two followed the wrong person and expressed their feelings for each other, so they could only gnaw on the bones, and the one groaned and ate.

"You are not allowed to play with children today." Li Xiumei knew something was wrong at a glance.

After Zhang Chi changed the clothes in the house, he followed into the kitchen and started to take care of the carp, while the others were busy with their own affairs.

Guan Jian is that these people are not naturalized in the United States, things that fake American devils like Zhang Chi are not willing to do, why do these people keep doing it.

People were sitting around the table eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, and the sky outside had not yet darkened. The golden light of the setting sun outside had faded, but it was still very bright outside. A little bit of moonlight can illuminate hundreds of meters away, not to mention the sunset, even the plain sunlight that has faded from the fiery red is enough to illuminate the surroundings as if it were daytime.

After sitting down, everyone will get up after eating.

"Take out this dish tonight and make a plate?" Li Xiumei said with a smile.

In fact, it was Zhang Chi who was thinking wildly. At this time, his mind was running on the train, thinking about what he saw, it seemed that suddenly after the new year, this kid suddenly became diligent and thoughtful. If he had done this earlier, it is estimated that now Ivy They've all graduated, so it's just like Brother Dawen.

Encourage the studies and life of the younger generations, bless the health of the elderly, and hope for a long life.

Zhang Juan faltered for a moment, took the big bone from her son, and still gave her son a hygienic eye, before throwing the big bone to Shiren who was nearest.

Of course, the most awesome jerk has to be Edamame, who mixes a can of Coke for himself, and hides under the table with his arms around him and drinks it.

Zhang Jiaren stood up, and everyone naturally stood up too. After listening to the old man's words, everyone touched the cups in their hands to the middle, took a sip, and the New Year's Eve dinner officially started.

Then he took another big bone and put it in Bai Lao's mouth.

What kind of cow are you still thinking about? People's minds are cash cows.

Men who love to drink drink, those who don’t like to drink drink with women and children, and the happiest thing for Xiao Xiao tonight is the drink that is not usually drinkable. There was only one night in the middle of the night when his mother Zhang Juan didn't care about him.

"...Okay, that's all, cheers, everyone!"

Some idle gentlemen outside were not idle either, and they were fiddling with things in their hands. Of course, these things were mainly the ingredients or transportation tools that everyone put out at the stall tonight.

Gu Ying stretched out her chopsticks, lightly tapped the scrambled eggs with tomatoes not far away.

Shiren and Bailao didn't dare to snatch it, and soon the two bears' mouths were about ten or twenty centimeters long, shining like two icicles hanging from the corners of their mouths.

Speaking of this, Zhang Juan turned her head and looked at her son sitting next to her. Now Xiao Xiao is holding a big bone with both hands. It is a pure big bone, or a beef leg bone. There is not much meat on it, but Xiao Xiao gnawed very hard. Work hard.

As for other things, there is no need to say more. Although Zhang Chi is rich, Zhang Chi didn’t spend much money. The dishes on the table are not expensive, and most of them are home-made and cooked by himself. I didn't find any master to come to the door.

"What big move?" Zhang Chi didn't understand for a while.

"cheers!"

The adults were eating lively at this time, and they didn't notice the appearance of the two bears.

Xiao Xiao is gnawing on this side, there are two big guardians showing their heads on one left and one on the right, waiting to pick up the leftovers, no need to ask, these two goods are naturally Shiren and Bailao.

Of course, according to our Chinese New Year's habit, the middle position has to be given to a plate of fish. Zhang Chi doesn't know about it, but it's the custom of his hometown.

The fish of Zhang Chi’s family this year are big enough, and the carp is fat. As for the original red color, it has long since disappeared after being fried in oil and stewed in water. Only the fat body remains after removing the scales and viscera. .

In fact, Zhang Chi can't understand why his grandfather is not enthusiastic in China, but why he is so enthusiastic when he arrives abroad. Like some immigrants from China, he plunged into the white American community, and that guy became a community in an instant. Activist.

So the two goods are enough to eat every day, but the two guys who see the food will not let it go. Now that they are next to Xiaoxiao, it is completely instinctive. Seeing the bones can’t walk, this is the brother of the bear. instinct.

Lao Liu has a lot more money than Zhang Chi, so he can sell it to you if he is not short of money?Wanting to merge two pieces into one, Zhang Chi can do it sometimes in his dreams, but the reality is that it is impossible, let alone Zhang Chi, why is Lao Liu not allowed to have a dream of a big ranch?Although Lao Liu is not a thing, there may be an ideal family.

Sun Yanping also had nothing to say, how could he do anything, he was just a civil servant in a small county town, and even a small town couldn't afford it, let alone a business worth tens of millions.

A family can discuss any major issues during a meal, isn't it just talking nonsense, and besides, where there are New Year's people who say that other people's parents are short, they have to talk without boundaries.

Just like that, after an hour and a half, Zhang Chi's family's New Year's Eve dinner was finished, but the New Year's Eve activities officially started.
