The night passed, and Wang Yue only got up at seven o'clock in the morning. He kicked the door twice.
He threw a string of firecrackers as a cannon.
"Wang Yue, whose house are we spending the New Year at?”He Yuzhu asked Wang Yue.
"Come to my house. My house is bigger.”Wang Yue thought for a moment and said.
"Alright, let's go to your house." He Yuzhu nodded.
It was best to spend the New Year with Wang Yue's family or He Yuzhu's family.
Wang Yue's house was about 80 square meters, which was quite big.
He Yuzhu's house was slightly smaller, more than 50 square meters. However, it was mainly divided into He Yushui's house beside it.
Otherwise, He Yuzhu's main room was more than 90 square meters.
As for the Deaf Old Lady's house, it was even smaller, less than 30 square meters.
It was about the size of Ma Jian's country.
The largest house in the backyard was Wang Yue's house.
The second uncle's house was about 70 square meters. The main reason was that there was a passageway in front of the door, which reduced the area.
After that, Xu Damao's house had two back-sheltered rooms. After they were connected, the area was close to 60 square meters.
He Yuzhu brought Chen Xueru to Wang Yue's house with a pile of things.
After a while, He Yushui helped the Deaf Old Lady to Wang Yue's house.
"I asked Sun Xiaowu and the others to make the dumplings. I'll go find them later.”
After handing over the cooking task to He Yuzhu, Wang Yue brought Chen Xueru, the old lady, and He Yuzhu to the inner room.
There weren't many entertainment activities during the new year.
Chen Xueru started reading Wang Yue's manuscript.
He Yushui and the Deaf Old Lady were playing with He Kui.
Seeing that he had more time, Wang Yue decided to write a novel.
Xiong Bing Lian had already finished writing, but he had not sent it to Song Yu yet.
Chen Xueru was a little confused by Wang Yue's writing speed.
This was the first time he saw someone write so fast.
After reading for a while, he turned his attention to the book.
An hour passed by in a flash. Wang Yue put down the compass in his hand and stretched his wrist.
"Village teacher? Biography?" He Yushui saw Wang Yue put down his pen and came over to read the manuscript.
" No, it's a science fiction novel." Wang Yue handed the manuscript over.
"Let me see." He Yushui took the novel and started reading.
Wang Yue was bored and laid down to rest for a while. He was woken up by He Yuzhu for a meal of dumplings.
In the afternoon, he played poker with He Yushui and Chen Xueru.
There were too few entertainment activities in this era.
Finally, when the sky turned dark, He Yuzhu called everyone to have New Year's Eve dinner.
"This New Year's Eve dinner is really extravagant."
Wang Yue said with a smile when he saw the dishes on the table.
"It is indeed extravagant." The deaf old lady agreed.
He Yuzhu had made twelve dishes for today's New Year's Eve dinner, including ten meat dishes and two vegetarian dishes.
The two vegetable dishes were hot and sour shredded potatoes and hot and sour cabbage.
The rest were all meat dishes.
Stewed mutton, braised carp, carp tofu soup, cold ear slices, braised wolf steak, stir-fried kidney, stir-fried pig badger meat, braised rabbit meat, Kung Pao chicken, and a nine-turn large intestine.
"Brother Zhu Zi, where did you get the fish?”Wang Yue looked at the braised fish and Crucian Tofu Soup and asked curiously.
"I went to the market and only spent three yuan.”He Yuzhu said casually.
If anyone else was here, they would definitely say that He Yuzhu was in Versailles.
Three yuan was enough for many people to live for a month.
"Don't waste money. There are enough meat dishes.”the Deaf Old Lady said.
It was a lean year now, and the workers of the rolling mill were still fine. Each family had half a catty of meat, so they could make some meat and vegetables to eat.
As for the others, many of them only ate slightly better than usual during the New Year.
For example, if the cornbread was replaced with steamed buns, it would be treated as the New Year.
And if they had meat dishes, they would be considered rich.
"Nian Nian Yu, there must be a fish for the New Year's Eve dinner.”
Everyone chatted casually while He Yuzhu and Chen Xueru drank some wine.
After more than an hour, the New Year's Eve dinner ended.
"Brother Zhu Zi, let's go set off fireworks.”Wang Yue took out a big bag from his room.
"You bought fireworks?"
"Yes, I bought fifty-six fireworks.”Wang Yue nodded.
"You're really generous. 20 cents per pill.”
"Let's go to the middle court and let the people in the courtyard come out to watch the fireworks.”He Yuzhu suggested.
"Alright." Wang Yue nodded.
Wang Yue held the cannon and He Yuzhu held the fireworks. They went to the middle court.
He found four stones in the middle of the courtyard and fixed the cannon barrel.
"It's time to watch the fireworks. Everyone, come to the middle court to watch the fireworks.”
He Yuzhu shouted at the top of her lungs when she saw Wang Yue was ready.
In less than a minute, everyone in the courtyard had arrived at the middle court.
These few years, fireworks were too rare.
Even though it was the new year, the square across the street would not set off fireworks.
As for the private sector, most people could not even afford to eat. Who would have the money to put up fireworks?
As for the wealthy capitalists, in order to keep a low profile, no one would do such high-profile things.
She saw that almost everyone had arrived.
Wang Yue took out a firework and glanced at the people around him.
"Xu Damao, give me your cigarette.”
He said directly when he saw Xu Damao smoking.
"Chief Engineer Wang, I'll give you some." Xu Damao immediately came over.
"You can play it." Wang Yue directly handed the fireworks over.
"Light it up and throw it in?" Xu Damao looked at the fireworks and then at the cannon barrel.
"Give it to me."
"This side is the bottom. Light it and put it in like this.”Wang Yue gestured to Xu Damao.
"Understood."
Wang Yue found a corner and watched Xu Damao set off fireworks.
"You bought a cannon for Xu Damao?”He Yuzhu stood beside Wang Yue and asked with a smile.
"It doesn't matter who sets it off. The fireworks are for show. Also, those things are very dangerous. It's better to avoid them.”Wang Yue said indifferently.
The current fireworks were not as advanced as the fireworks of the future.
In the future, electronic fireworks could be ignited from tens of meters away.
Currently, the fireworks only took five to six seconds from the moment they were lit up to the sky.
"Alright, you have a point."
Bang...
A firework flew into the sky, and the sky was instantly lit up.
This firework was a ten-inch firework. It was launched from a very high altitude and could be seen from a few kilometers away.
"It's so beautiful. It's my first time seeing fireworks up close.”He Yushui looked at the fireworks in the sky and revealed a hint of infatuation.
"Continue." Wang Yue pointed at the bag in front of Shazhu's house.
"Are you really going to release it!" Xu Damao asked seriously.
"I'm too lazy to set off the fireworks. I just want to watch the fireworks. If you don't set off the fireworks, I'll find someone else.”Wang Yu said casually.
"I'll let you go." Xu Damao immediately went to the fireworks display.
One by one, fireworks flew into the sky.
It was a pity that it did not have the dense effect of the later generations.
"Spring thunder explodes Hua Qianshu, fire trees and silver flowers stay in the night.”Wang Yue said casually.
However, there was a slight feeling of celebrating the new year in the future.
After watching ten fireworks, Wang Yue felt that it was boring and returned to his room.
