Time flew like an arrow. It was almost the New Year, and He Yushui, a junior high school student, was also on vacation.
Since the 20th of December, every family had been busy celebrating the new year!
He cleaned up, steamed buns, steamed bean buns, steamed vegetable buns, and made date cakes. Stewed meat, fried fish, and croquettes. Soon, it was New Year's Eve.
In the middle of this, He Yushui secretly pinched and ate, including Lou Xiao'e.
"What's wrong with you?" There was no need to be sneaky like a thief.”
The two of them argued,"It's so delicious!”
Silly Zhu held his forehead and let out a long sigh!
There was no holiday on New Year's Eve, but the factory was not so rigid. It was basically cleaning.
She had to hold her hands tightly when she was cleaning at noon. It was a small benefit to have a holiday in the afternoon!
After returning home, he couldn't stay idle. He had to practice with paste paste, prepare New Year's Eve dinner, and make dumplings for the early morning of the first day of the new year.
The New Year's Eve dinner was at Shazhu's house. The deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai and his wife, Shazhu and his wife, and He Yushui, a total of six people gathered around the table.
Yi Zhonghai and Shazhu were drinking together.
An aunt and Lou Xiao'e drank red wine, rose red wine produced in the capital.
He Yushui drank soda alone, in glass bottles.
Only the deaf old lady could not drink any of them. She could only pour a bowl of water and drink it as wine!
Anyway, the table was eating happily.
After dinner, he sent Old Lady Shazhu back. Lou Xiao'e stayed behind to clean up the plates and put the leftovers together.
The two of them worked together to clean up and scrub. They smiled at each other, and warmth filled the air between them.
When she returned home at noon, Lou Xiao'e said excitedly that she must stay up until midnight tonight and never go to sleep!
In the end, they only washed the dishes together and looked at each other after that!
The night watch ended in vain, and the two of them went to the bed.
The next morning, she got up before dawn. When she was boiling water, she went to call He Yushui. When she came back, she called Lou Xiao'e.
"Silly Zhu, I'm exhausted, I don't want to!”
"How can you not get up? The rain will laugh at you later!”
"We have a good relationship. She won't laugh at me!”
"I see! When I went to call for rainwater, I found that the light in the room of the deaf old lady had been turned on. I guess it will come soon. When the time comes, will you have the nerve to continue sleeping?”
Lou Xiao'e had no choice but to get out of bed.
When Lou Xiao'e finished washing, He Yu also arrived!
Silly column directly arranged for He Yu Shui to call the deaf old lady to come over for dinner, Lou Xiao'e prepared to make dumplings.
He took a plate of firecrackers outside and tied the firecrackers with the rope he had prepared the day before.
Then, he would use a rope to pull up the firecrackers.
When Lou Xiao'e shouted,'Dumplings are ready,' they would light the firecrackers.
There was another program before dinner, which was the kind where the three little ones kowtowed to the deaf old lady.
The Deaf Old Lady couldn't stop smiling as she gave each of them a red packet.
Originally, Shazhu was prepared to give some money to the Deaf Old Lady to give out red packets!
Who knew that the old lady wouldn't want it no matter what. She said that during the winter, it was almost always Silly Zhu who took care of the food. She had a lot of savings and now she had money!
To be honest, this period of time was probably the happiest time for the deaf old lady after losing her husband and child.
After eating the dumplings, the Deaf Old Lady stayed at home to wait for others to come to visit. Silly Zhu prepared a lot of peanuts, melon seeds, candy, and cigarettes for her, ready to give them to the people who came to visit.
Then, the three of them went out to pay their respects to the other elderly people in the courtyard.
After the Liberation, the country did not advocate kowtowing during the New Year, especially after the four days were called out, the kowtowing of the New Year was even less.
Today, there was a reason why Shazhu brought Lou Xiao'e to pay New Year's greetings. According to the old saying in Beijing, when a new daughter-in-law recognized a family, that family would give the new daughter-in-law a greeting gift.
Not much, as long as it was meaningful.
It wasn't that Shazhu was greedy for this bit of money, but it had always been like this. He was just going with the flow.
After the young and middle-aged people returned from their New Year greetings, it was time for the children to pay their New Year greetings.
When children visited the New Year, they would basically run around the courtyard. When they met elders who were close to them, they would give them a few cents. If they were ordinary, they would just give them a handful of peanuts.
By the time this wave of children had passed, the sky was already bright.
It wasn't long before the street office and factory leaders came to pay their New Year greetings.
Originally, when Silly Pillar was promoted to the deputy director of the canteen, she was going to go with him to pay New Year's greetings this year.
However, since he had just gotten married, he would skip this group visit.
Not only that, the factory also organized movies and temple festivals. Everyone volunteered to participate.
Silly Zhu and Lou Xiao'e didn't participate. They always felt that it was better to go out and play than to be comfortable at home!
This was the truth. Most of the activities in the factory were for free meals in the factory. At least they could have a full meal.
Therefore, as long as their family conditions were not too bad, they would not participate in the factory's collective activities.
It's New Year's Eve. You should spend more time with your family!
If he didn't join in the fun at the factory, he would be able to stop before lunch.
The second day of the new year was the day to return to her parents 'home. As a daughter and son-in-law, they had to bring gifts at least for the new year.
In this day and age, it was difficult to get something that could be exchanged.
There weren't many types of gifts.
Therefore, the gifts that Silly Zhu brought were similar to the ones he brought to the Lou family, but the amount was larger.
In the past, he brought two bottles of wine. This time, he brought two boxes and some cakes. Then, he could go to Qincheng.
At that time, it was very luxurious to bring these things when visiting relatives.
Only the two of them knew about this. One of them was a noob and didn't know anything about this.
The other one who had transmigrated from the future. He felt that these gifts were too thin!
After the young couple arrived, the father-in-law and mother-in-law were very happy. One of them prepared tea and the other prepared food.
Lou Xiao'e naturally followed her mother to help.
"I've also considered what you said before the new year. I've decided to help! It was not to make money or anything, but it did not matter if he lost a little.”
"I'm too embarrassed to stay here all the time, so I'm going to take this opportunity to see if I can find a way out!”
"In that case, aren't you leaving soon?”
"In a few days, I will go to Guang City and then go to Harbor City from Guang City!”
Silly Zhu didn't worry about how to get there. According to the old scholar's network, he would have left in those few years, let alone go to Harbor City.
