Chapter 145 New Year's Eve Dinner

If I knew it earlier, I should have given the little kid two more fleece coats.

Ye Yuxuan forgot about this idea as soon as it came up, and who cares, since she's not in Pingyang City now, it's useless to think about it.

Ye Yuxuan didn't plan to go out, although this would be the time when every family would reunite for a New Year's Eve dinner, but for Ye Yuxuan who was alone, the word reunion had nothing to do with her.

At this time, Xiao Tong, whom Ye Yuxuan thought of, was obediently cooking porridge in an aluminum pot at home. Although the corn flakes cost a lot of firewood, it was more satisfying than eating dry porridge with whole grains and vegetables alone.

Seeing that the crushed corn was almost cooked, Xiao Tong added another half cup of washed dried sweet potatoes, and then closed the lid.

Holding his chin and looking at the pot in front of him, Xiao Tong tilted his head and thought, the pork his sister gave was like second-grade meat, with a lot of fat on it, and it happened to be used for oil refining tomorrow, and fried with a little minced meat to make some dumplings.

At that time, I will give some to my sister, but since I want to give it to my sister, I will put more meat in that portion, my sister should like it.

Xiao Yi carried the bucket into the house and saw his younger brother smiling in front of the stove. Looking at his smiling face, Xiao Yi knew without asking that his younger brother must be thinking about Comrade Ye.

"Brother, we made dumplings tomorrow, let's send some to my sister."

"Yes." Xiao Yi replied, throwing a few slices of bacon that had been cut on the table into the pot and cooking them together with the crushed corn.

"Brother..." Xiao Tong looked at him with disapproval.

Xiao Yi: "Save the trouble."

It's just a few slices of bacon, and it's too troublesome to cook.

Xiao Tong heard it, thought about it, and stopped talking.

After a while, the aroma of bacon and cooked corn mixed together and wafted in the room.

The hot corn and sweet potato porridge is thick, with a few slices of bacon wrapped in it, and the smell will whet your appetite.

Xiao Yi cooked a dish with three eggs and half an onion, and another dish of fried pork with cabbage before he was ready to eat.

For the New Year's Eve dinner, since there is meat, it should be cooked a little.

"I don't know how my sister celebrates the New Year by herself." Xiao Tong said suddenly, holding up her chopsticks.

Xiao Yi: "..."

After thinking for a while, Xiao Yi said, "Didn't you make roasted pig's trotters with winter bamboo shoots for her yesterday?"

"That was yesterday."

So what's the matter, it's winter, and the vegetables won't spoil if left overnight.

Facing his older brother's suspicious eyes, Xiao Tong said without thinking, "My sister doesn't like overnight dishes."

Xiao Yi was even more speechless when he heard this.

"Brother, I think..." Go to see my sister.

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yi interrupted him.

"No, you don't want to."

"elder brother."

"Eat, don't talk nonsense."

Xiao Tong pouted, but obediently picked up the bowl and began to eat.

It's not that Xiao Yi persuaded Xiao Tong, but Xiao Tong thought that after encountering something in the alley yesterday, her sister was in a bad mood. If he went there, her sister would think of the bad thing when she saw him, so, Just stay at home.

It happened to be meal time at this time, and there were constant voices from various households in the courtyard, or the father yelled at the boy, or the old woman scolded the daughter, of course, there were also warm families.

For example, Xiao He's family.

Although a large family ate in the house, the staple food was multigrain steamed buns, and the dishes were nothing more than fried potatoes, spicy cabbage, and a serving of scrambled eggs with onions.But the whole family is happy and harmonious, and they don't feel that whoever eats two more bites and whoever eats two less bites will quarrel and throw chopsticks.

Since He has a large family, there will naturally be more meat tickets than others, but the meat has to be saved for making dumplings. Besides, it's only thirty years old, and there are still a few days left, so we can't use up all of it at once.

Compared to last year when I still ate steamed buns, it is much better to be able to do this this year.

This time they will eat, and the staple food is made according to the head, and Xiao He's family is no exception. When the Chinese New Year is approaching, Xiao He received some gifts when he held a wedding before, so he would not have to eat rough grains and vegetables.

A total of ten miscellaneous grain steamed buns were steamed. Aunt He first handed one to Father He, then put one in his bowl, gave two to Xiao He and Xiao Cui, and two to the second son of the He family, leaving the last two. , She and He Meizi each had one, and then put the cage aside.

Aunt He felt that she didn't go to work and didn't eat much, and her daughter was a girl, so she didn't eat much, but even so, Father He still broke half of the steamed buns in his hand and handed them to Sister He.

Xiao He broke off half of the steamed bun in his hand and put it in Mrs. He's bowl: "Mom, eat more."

"You child, mom has enough to eat." Aunt He cursed with a smile, but the satisfaction in her eyes was overflowing.

"It's snowing so hard all of a sudden, Boss, is there anything wrong with Xiaotong?" Father He asked this question.

Xiao He: "No, when I went to the toilet last night, I saw their brothers coming back with half a sack of food, they are indispensable."

Originally, the two brothers Xiao Tong were kind to the He family, and with Director Ye's face, how could Xiao He ignore it.He also asked a few questions last night.Knowing that the food for Xiao Yi and the two brothers had been prepared, they didn't ask any more questions.

Father He said again: "The weather was almost like this at the time. If it wasn't for Xiaoyi, I would have died long ago."

"Don't talk about this, the past is over, it's safe and sound." Aunt He's heart tightened, and she gave Father He a quick look.

Father He smiled, and patted the back of his head indifferently. Although he had healed a long time ago, there was still a scar left by the broken hole.

Xiao He was very guilty. If he had gone to the factory to pick him up that day, he would not have let his father fall and suffer.

Soon, the two brothers, Xiao Yi, were mentioned again.

Aunt He asked from the side: "Ask him if he has enough firewood at home? In this weather, if there is no firewood and briquettes, he will be frozen."

When Meizi He heard this, she put down the chopsticks in her hand and said, "Mom, don't worry, Brother Xiao Yi is going to work, and Xiao Tong is fine at home. They are all going out to collect firewood."

After Xiao Cui broke off half of the steamed bun in her hand and handed it to Xiao He, after Xiao He took it with a smile, she said, "Parents, don't worry, it's not far away, I will have dinner with Xiao He later , Just go and have a look."

When the daughter-in-law said this, Father He and Aunt He nodded when they heard it. Aunt He took two chopsticks of eggs for Xiao Cui and said, "Xiao Cui, eat more, don't give it to Xiao He."

Xiao Cui smiled: "Mom, I'm eating, you should eat more too, you've worked hard cooking for us."

When Aunt He heard it, she quickly waved her hands: "Hey, I have worked so hard. I just wash and cook. It is hard for you to go to work." Even though she said so, the smile on Aunt He's face did not hide the slightest bit.

Although the daughter-in-law is from the countryside at home, she can be diligent and responsible. She will help her with work after get off work, take care of her boss, and care about her younger siblings. Aunt He is more and more satisfied with her.
