Wearing the shopping mall through the 70s

New Year's Eve.

Shen Xiangxi, Su Jieru and Han all returned from the county town.

Both Han and Shen Xiangxi brought a lot of things. These were New Year's goods issued by their work units, and there were many varieties.

Shen Ruoqing volunteered to write couplets.

She actually writes pretty well with calligraphy, and the Shen family is very supportive of her anyway.

Especially Mrs. Ji.

"My little boy is very talented. Look at the handwriting. It's really beautiful. Even more beautiful than Principal He's handwriting."

Principal He is the principal of the school in their village. He usually writes Spring Festival couplets during the New Year. Everyone likes them and asks Principal He to write them because Principal He's handwriting is vigorous and beautiful.

"Mom, can my handwriting compare with Principal He's?" Shen Ruoqing was a little embarrassed by the praise. Mrs. Ji put too heavy a filter on herself.

The neighbor next door heard that Shen Ruoqing was good at calligraphy, so he brought couplets over specially for Shen Ruoqing to help write one.It is said that Shen Ruoqing is a literary star descending to earth, and the couplets she wrote must have good meaning.

Somehow, in addition to a few neighbors nearby, a few from far away also came over to ask Shen Ruoqing to write couplets.

Mrs. Ji felt that this was very face-saving. She smiled so much that she couldn't close her mouth. She was also generous when she saw people coming, so she grabbed a handful of melon seeds. Listening to the people in the village constantly praising Shen Ruoqing, her old face smiled like a chrysanthemum. .

The family first cleaned the house inside and outside, and then ate meat, vegetables and soup at noon. Of course, the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening was definitely more sumptuous.

In the afternoon, Shen Ruoqing and the others had nothing to do, so they started playing poker.

The younger ones definitely couldn't play with Shen Ruoqing, and soon their faces were covered with white stripes.

Mrs. Ji, Mrs. Han and Su Jieru were busy in the kitchen all afternoon.Because Shen Ruoqing said fried mushrooms were delicious last year, he made a lot more fried mushrooms this year.I also made a lot of croquettes, all of which were fried meatballs.And today, Mrs. Ji was reluctant to kill her own hens that could lay eggs. She bought two hens and ducks that did not lay eggs from other people in the village and was killing the chickens and ducks and plucking their feathers.

On the eve of New Year's Eve, the old Shen family set up two tables for a lively reunion dinner.

Although Han is mainly in charge, Mrs. Ji still wants Shen Ruoqing to show off her skills.Shen Ruoqing thought about it and made a sweet and sour pork loin.The rest was cooked by Han, and Han also made the finale dish - Dongpo Pork Pork.

Mrs. Han deservedly studied in a state-owned restaurant for so long, and Su Jieru kept praising her smooth cooking process when she started cooking oil in a pot.

Shen Xiangbei also said that he has never seen Dongpo pork that looks so attractive in color and has an overpowering aroma that penetrates his nose. Even without tasting it, he seems to know that it is soft, juicy and delicious. Elbow!

Dongpo pork elbow is the last dish. The other dishes have been prepared long ago. When the dishes are ready, the New Year's Eve dinner officially begins.

The whole family ate and drank, and they were full of praise for this year's New Year's Eve dinner. After all, they didn't have such a good meal in previous years. The chicken, duck, and fish were all arranged neatly, and everyone's eyes were glowing green.

Of course, the most popular dish is the Dongpo Pork Pork Pork.

Seeing Dongpo's elbow, Shen Hanwen and Shen Hanwu immediately wanted to grab it with their chopsticks, but now Shen Xue is no longer the submissive character she used to be. She refused to give in. While grabbing a large piece of meat, she didn't forget to give it to herself. My sister Shen Yun grabbed a piece.The battle at the children's table was fierce.

Fortunately, Shen Ruoqing was sitting at the adults' table.Others were also jealous of Dongpo's elbow, but they were still restrained.Mrs. Ji gave Shen Ruoqing a big piece first, and then they used the chopsticks for the rest. "Sister-in-law, your skills are really amazing. They are not much different from those of master chefs in state-owned restaurants. I think you can become a master chef of spoons." Shen Xiangxi gave a thumbs up.

"Eat more if you like." Han said with a smile.

After dinner, it was time to watch the New Year's Eve. Shen Xue pulled Shen Ruoqing to touch the rubber band in the dark. This rubber band was exchanged by Shen Xue for a hairdo made by Han's classmate.

"Little ball, kick it with your feet, Malan blossoms 21. Two eight two five six, two eight two five seven"

Shen Ruoqing hasn't jumped over a rubber band in many, many years. It's quite interesting to play with it like this.

After coaxing the little girl, the three sisters and Shen Ruoqing all yawned and went to bed. The adults kept vigil while eating melon seeds and were in surprisingly good spirits.

Early in the morning on New Year's Day, Shen Ruoqing ate dumplings stuffed with onion and meat, then got up to pay her mother a New Year's greeting, and received another generous red envelope.

Her nephews and nieces lined up to say good luck to her and asked for red envelopes, and Shen Ruoqing gave them to them one by one.Then I saw that Shen Hansong had finished celebrating the New Year, but he didn't want her red envelope.

"Sister-in-law, I am already 16 years old this year and I can't ask for any more red envelopes."

"Fool, you're not an adult yet, why don't you want the red envelope? Keep it when my sister-in-law gives it to you." Shen Ruoqing forcefully handed the red envelope to Shen Hansong without any explanation.

"Thank you, aunt."

Compared with last year, there are obviously many more people who come to pay New Year greetings this year. Fortunately, Mrs. Ji has prepared a lot of candies, melon seeds and so on. Those who come to pay New Year greetings all leave with handfuls of melon seeds, peanuts or candies.

Ji Meihua also came to pay New Year greetings.

Ji Meihua wore a fur coat and showed off proudly to Mrs. Ji.

"Cousin, why are you still wearing the same clothes as last year? Didn't your eldest daughter-in-law find a job in the county? And your third child, isn't she a tractor driver? Why didn't she buy you any clothes? "Ji Meihua's eyes flashed with pride.

"Mei Hua, your clothes are made of leather. Ouch, they feel slippery to the touch, and they look nice and stylish! It's like our homespun cotton-padded jacket has been put into the mud! Where did you buy this? Who gave it to you? Did you buy it? Which of your children is so filial?" Someone touched it enviously.

"This fur coat looks really nice, but it's so thin to the touch. Sister-in-law, can you keep me warm?"

Ji Meihua touched her fur coat proudly and cherishedly.

"Warm, how can it not be warm? How can my children be so filial? My future grandson-in-law bought this for me. It was specially brought from a big city. There are only two pieces in total, and I have one piece. My eldest granddaughter has one, but I heard that she can’t buy it even if she wants to. Tell me, this kid is so much older than I am. Why would she wear something so fancy? Don’t do it. I’m afraid the kid won’t be happy. Come on, now that I’m old, we’ve even gone on a trip to let the old sisters laugh!”

He said he didn't want it, but his hands were stroking left and right as if they were feeling weird, which made a bunch of old ladies sour to death.

"Grandson-in-law? Your girl Xinyi has a partner? When did it happen? Who is the partner?" Someone caught the key word.

"Who else could it be? Li Zhiqing, who lives in our house, immediately fell in love with my girl Xinyi. We are also an open-minded parent. Since the two children are in love, it is not easy for us to do so. If you are not a bad person who wants to beat a mandarin duck, let them watch everywhere first."

"What? Li Zhiqing is dating girl Xinyi? When did this happen?"
