Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 433, Celebrating the New Year
On New Year's Eve, Jiang Yan asked He Yuzhu to buy a few small firecrackers in the morning, then returned home and started chopping dumpling fillings.

This year’s dumplings have a lot of fillings, including mutton, green onions, pork, celery, and five or six kinds of eggs and leeks. Anyway, the weather is cold now, so the wrapped dumplings are frozen outside and can be eaten whenever you want.

The men were kneading dough and rolling out dumpling wrappers, while the women were in charge of making dumplings. They were busy there. Jiang Yan and Xu Damao, two losers who couldn't make dumplings or roll out dumpling wrappers, could only sit nearby and smoke and eat melon seeds.

Didn’t I tell you that this person has great power with many people!This twenty kilograms of flour turned into chubby dumplings in less than two hours. They were put away to freeze and put away.

In order to facilitate storage, Shitou specially made a cabinet made of iron sheets, with layers on top to put the dumplings on for easy access. He also installed an iron door and hung a large lock to imitate someone stealing it.

Just as they were laughing and joking in the small courtyard, in the courtyard, the third uncle asked Yan Jiecheng to help carry the big square table out and prepared to write Spring Festival couplets for the neighbors. Firstly, he did good things for the neighbors, and secondly, although he did not charge money, he collected some melon seeds. Peanuts can be considered a harvest.

Jiang Yan's third uncle had prepared the Spring Festival couplets early in the morning. After writing the first one, he asked Yan Jiekuang to send it to him. Jiang Yan was naturally not stingy and directly grabbed a large handful of peanuts, melon seeds and even candies and handed them to him.

After taking the couplets, Jiang Yan and Xu Damao naturally stopped lifting the corpse. After making the paste, the two of them worked together to paste the couplets.

The meal on New Year's Eve was still quite sumptuous. Since it was Jiang Sirui's first time celebrating the New Year here, He Yuzhu and Liu Zi put in a lot of effort.It’s true that this is a place that has both color and fragrance.

Jiang Yan took He Yuyu to the yard to set up the hanging whip, and then sat down at the table.Jiang Yan took out a bottle of white wine, poured it for everyone and said: "Okay, it's another year. I wish us a prosperous life in the future, I wish our country will be prosperous, I wish grandma good health, and everyone can work hard." All the best and happy new year.”

"Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year"

The two of them picked up their cups and clinked them together. After sitting down, they heard He Yuzhu teasing Xu Damao: "I wonder if Comrade Xu Damao misses Miss Lou Xiaomo?"

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Xu Damao laughed: "Hey! This is really three days without seeing each other! Zhuzhu, you, a big guy like you, can drag out articles, it's rare, it's rare."

"As for Moth! You can hold your wife to sleep at night. Do you think I can miss her?"

When He Yuzhu heard this, he laughed.Qin Huairu next to him spat at Xu Damao, his face flushed with embarrassment.

At this time, in the Yan family room in the front yard, the third uncle was presiding over the overall situation of the family.

A bamboo basket was placed on the table, containing some melon seeds and peanuts. This was the writing fee that the third uncle collected from writing Spring Festival couplets for the neighbors.

Just listen to the third uncle chanting "If you don't have poverty, you won't have poverty. If you don't calculate, you will suffer poverty." He held a small spatula in his hand and gently scooped up the melon seeds and peanuts, bit by bit, bit by bit, and divided them one by one. The children gathered around the table each took a shovel in their hands, and then ordered the third aunt to lock the basket in the cupboard.

Yan Jiekuang turned over the peanuts and melon seeds in his palm, and ordered the melon seeds and peanuts in his sister's hand. He couldn't help but admire his father. One melon seed was not too much, and one peanut was not enough. It was so fair to divide the things... …

In the backyard, the second uncle Liu Haizhong was drinking wine leisurely at home. There was a plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of dumplings, and several meat dishes on the table. The second son Liu Guangtian and the third son Liu Guangfu also had a wine glass next to them. , but Liu Guangfu was young, so the task of drinking with his old man was left to Liu Guangtian.

Yi Zhonghai's family in Zhongyuan also makes quite a sumptuous meal, as well as the Jia family and other families. Are they celebrating the New Year?People always take out things they can't bear to eat.By the time they finished drinking and eating dumplings, it was already midnight on the first day of the Lunar New Year in 1961. Jiang Yan drove Jiang Sirui back to the house to go to bed. He got up and tidied the house briefly, made the bed and bedding. Got into bed and rested.

It was already the 13th year since he came into this world, and it was also the [-]th year after the New Year. Jiang Yan lay on the bed and tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep; he saw Jiang Sirui beside him, already fast asleep.Finally, he simply put on his coat, got up and went to the house alone.

As soon as the air-conditioning blew, Jiang Yan was instantly excited, lit a cigarette, and started smoking.

Thousands of thoughts lingered in his heart, and Jiang Yan was filled with emotion.

It is said that the plan for the year begins in spring. On the first day of the new year, you must plan your plans for the new year.

First, let your family be peaceful and happy.There are still more than five years before that storm occurs, so I should prepare myself earlier.

The focus of my work next year will be on manufacturing CNC machine tools.

Secondly, regarding the neighbors in the courtyard house.

Originally, the family didn't care about them at all, but as the incident approached, Jiang Yan felt that it was necessary to be kinder.

According to Jiang Yan's observations over the years, most of the neighbors in this courtyard are decent people and never cause trouble. Most of these people can be interacted with. Their reputation is directly related to themselves and their families. Regarding the political fate of the next ten years or so, most neighbors need to unite and maintain good relations.

After thinking about it, he felt a little sleepy. He put out his cigarette, turned around and returned to his room.

The first uncle, Yi Zhonghai, was too insidious and controlling on TV. Although he was better now, Jiang Yan did not take it lightly. If this guy gave him a sudden attack, he would be in trouble. He's not afraid, but that's not true of humans. A dog can't change its habit of eating shit. Jiang Yan still understands that he must be on guard against him in everything and kill him if he catches the slightest sign.

As for the second uncle Liu Haizhong, because he helped to get promoted, he is now his royal thug. He almost wants to solve the problems in the courtyard, but he still has to guard against him, for fear that his ambition will be too big and he will bite him one after another.

As for the scheme of the third uncle Yan Bugui, currently it is not against him. However, I have heard from others that his eldest son is not a thing. He often speaks ill of himself outside, so he should be careful. Guys just don't know any good stuff.

In the past, I felt that Jia Dongxu's family was the most difficult to deal with, especially Jia Zhang's family. However, I found that since I came back, she seemed to be very good to her own family in addition to having trouble with the neighbors, and Jia Dongxu's daughter-in-law was also He is a good person. I heard from others that his salary has been raised by one level now and he works very hard.

It is estimated that now that Jia Dongxu and his wife are suppressing the Jia Zhang family, he will not be able to do anything wrong.

However, Jiang Yan was not careless about these people. He decided in his heart that as long as they showed signs of harming his family, Jiang Yan would be ready to kill them. It was obviously impossible to let them go.

As I was thinking about it, I felt a little sleepy. I had smoked more than half a pack of cigarettes without knowing it. I looked at my watch and it was almost three o'clock, so I turned around and went back to my room to rest.
