New Year's Eve.
Snowflakes began to fall in the sky again, and the whole city seemed to be covered with a white blanket.
There are few pedestrians on the street anymore. Occasionally, you can see the door open, an adult holding a cigarette in his mouth on the road at the door, or a long string of bright red firecrackers hanging on the treetops. The children covered their ears and hid behind, feeling happy and nervous at the same time.
"Crackling, crackling"
As the heavy curtain behind the door was opened, the sound of firecrackers outside, the laughter of children, and the voices of parents calling for dinner were all heard. inside the house.
The flame in the furnace burned blazingly, glowing with orange-red light, and worked hard to radiate its own heat to the outside of the furnace, making the inside and outside of the house become two worlds.
Li Nan was wrapped up tightly when he came in. His gloved hands were holding a stick of incense. He bared his teeth and smiled after entering.
"Mom, it's done. Can we eat it?"
Take off your gloves, put out the incense stick, and put it on the table behind the door, saving it for next time. Use again when needed.
When she saw the New Year’s Eve dinner on the table, she was so anxious that she even picked up a piece of pig head meat and threw it into her mouth with her head held high. The buds gradually bloomed unconsciously.
"You, you are so hot and windy, do you still look like a girl?"
Liu Yin, wearing an apron, brought a plate of fried fish that had been prepared on the desk to the table. Finally, he took off his apron and poked his daughter, who was almost as tall as himself.
“Oh, you don’t dare to let it go, but when I let it go, you said, don’t look for me next year, let my brother let it go for you, he is so cute”
Speaking of his brother, Liu Yin frowned and looked a little unhappy.
"Oh, your brother, you are married. Do you think he can still think of us and my mother? I just sent a telegram back during the Chinese New Year. He is nothing compared to you. He is heartless."
After patting away the little pig's hoof that her daughter was about to extend again, Liu Yin leaned the chopsticks on the table and stuffed them into her daughter's hand.
"Humph, when you are not married, you have to push hard. After you are married, why do you care about him? You should learn from the third uncle of the opposite door. If Brother Jie Cheng doesn't go to his place to eat, he will I'm still happy."
Li Nan's eyes were shining, and his chopsticks almost turned into hot wheels. As he spoke, he put vegetables in his bowl, took them with him, and even put some for his mother. piece.
Liu Yin curled her lips and wondered if she could learn from the old Yan family about her situation. If the old man in the south knew about it, he would definitely be able to reach the capital the next day.
"It has to be me, Mom, I am your little cotton-padded jacket. This New Year's Eve, the little cotton-padded jacket will accompany you, so I will pretend that I don't have this brother."
" Go, go, go, how can you talk, talk nonsense during the New Year, I think you will get married by then, will you come back for the New Year?"
Absentmindedly eating the New Year's Eve dinner in the bowl, although this year is richer than last year Many, but Liu YinI always feel something is wrong and I can't eat it.
"Mom, it's early. Let me tell you, even if I get married, I will still accompany you. Hehe, I don't want to imitate my brother and sister-in-law."
Li Nan smiled innocently He was standing, and the speed of cooking was not slow at all, maybe it was much better than in school. His cheeks were as bulging as those of a big hamster, and the tone of his speech changed.
Wiping the rice grains from the corner of her daughter's mouth, Liu Yin rolled her eyes at her. As a mother, she didn't know what her daughter's temper was.
As her arm slipped, she grabbed Li Nan's pocket. There was more stuffed there than in her mouth. The little girl's expression suddenly changed, she put down the bowl and chopsticks and covered her pocket.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
"What am I doing? You and your brother used to blow up dog pots during the Chinese New Year and were beaten by your father. I don't think you can remember it." Come on, now that he's not at home, you can do it alone, right?"
Pulling out the firecrackers she had kept from her daughter's pocket, Liu Yin's eyes widened and she slipped out a small bunch and even matches. The boxes all fell out, showing how well prepared they were.
Li Nan had a grimace on his face, a look of grievance on his face, as well as a hint of annoyance, maybe regret, as he felt like the criminal items had been seized before even a firecracker could be set off.
"That was exploded by my brother. What does it have to do with me? Dabai has left long ago"
Pinching the edge of his pocket tightly, there were still a few dismantled ones inside. , the big one has been confiscated, but Li Nan has to keep the small one.
"If you were not holding Dabai's legs, would he be able to watch your brother blow it up to eat him? The man who was eating him would be fried to pieces, let alone the dog, everyone would be pissed off by you two. You are a girl, you look a bit like a girl."
Liu Yin didn't care about her daughter's pitiful appearance. With a straight face, she collected all the firecrackers and threw them directly outside the door. A group of half-grown children, then Lehe's nose was bubbling.
"Well, if you can't deal with my brother, then you know how to deal with me. I won't be with you next year either."
The little girl got angry and twisted her head. Turn grief and anger into appetite and cook like crazy.
"The cat in the stove, the dog tied up in the backyard, the pig in the pigsty, the people in the toilet, with cannons, you will be very excited to catch them. Those who are celebrating the New Year, it is better to calm down, so Now that I’m older, I’ll take you to my door to apologize, and I’ll see who’s embarrassed.”
After a reunion dinner, although the family was not reunited, the mother and daughter were at least together, and at least they were able to cope with being covered. The New Year is over.
It’s different with Lao Huang’s family.
This year's reunion dinner, just like the Li family's, was also attended by the mother and daughter at home.
While eating, Xiao Huang carefully looked at her mother's face. Who said children couldn't read adults' faces, but she could.
These days, she is not happy at all. Her little butt can prove that when she is spanked, it hurts much more than before.
Wriggling restlessly on the bench, legs dangling under the tableHe looked up, his eyes rolling around.
"Mom, dad didn't come back"
"Sister, sister didn't come back either"
"Eat you"
Peel off Put the good shrimp tails into her daughter's bowl. Huang's mother, who looked much haggard, looked at the phone over there with a grimace.
These days, I am alone with my daughter at home, tossing and turning and unable to sleep. I always look forward to receiving a call from my husband in the next second, saying that my son-in-law is fine.
As a result, the phone never rang even in the dream, so as a mother and mother-in-law, she could not think about celebrating the New Year.
"Dingling bell"
Whatever came to mind, Huang's mother, who was helping her daughter peel shrimps, didn't even have time to wipe her hands, so she ran to the phone in a panic. Picked up the phone receiver.
"Hey, Lao Huang?"
"How is the situation over there?"
Huang's mother asked fearfully, her hand holding the microphone was shaking. Somewhat shaky.
Huang Beibei looked at this scene with her head tilted and slowed down her chewing movements. She has not yet learned the word sadness.
She could only tell whether she was happy or unhappy from her mother's face.
