    "We eat glutinous rice and bait made of glutinous rice, glutinous rice cakes, etc. for Chinese New Year. We don't eat dumplings. I learned how to make dumplings in the insurance company."

    Although the movements of Chu Lihua's hands were not fast, the dumplings still looked good.  Back then, the aunt in the kitchen who taught pastry was very strict, and Chu Lihua was often scolded.  Anyway, I have learned how to make dumplings.

    "You can learn how to make dumplings in the last class. It seems that you are born to marry a northerner!"

    Tang Xue teased Chu Lihua.

    Everyone in the room laughed and made fun of Chu Lihua.

    "Well, I really like northerners better. They have a bold personality and are easy to talk to. They are simple-minded and easy to get along with."

    Chu Lihua thought of her previous ex-boyfriends, and was the happiest when she was with Wu Ming, a northerner.

    "Lihua is indeed a talented woman, she always speaks eloquently!"

    Zhang Zegui praised Chu Lihua with a smile.

    "Brother Ze has won the prize, but it just happens to be a little smooth."

    Chu Lihua doesn't like Zhang Zegui's exaggeration very much, and always feels that there is a lot of intentionality in his tone, which is a kind of casual speech.

    Because it was New Year's Eve, the parents of Zhang Zike and Zhang Zegui also came together, and the New Year's Eve dinner was quite lively.

    Both the old couple sent lucky red envelopes to their grandson Yifan, and the others were no exception.

    Fortunately, Chu Lihua still had 200 yuan in cash in her pocket, which happened to be used as lucky money for Yifan.  Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if you can't find a place to pick it up now.

    However, those who are alienated are not those who benefit from it. Although Chu Lihua is celebrating the New Year here as Tang Xue's younger sister.  However, Chu Lihua also has a more important identity - Tang Xue's subordinate.  So, no matter how much, performance is always needed.

    The New Year's Eve dinner was not as rich as Chu Lihua imagined, but it was her favorite style.

    To be honest, if you want a big table with big fish and meat, there are not many that Chu Lihua likes to eat, so it will be even more embarrassing.

    During this period, Tang Xue's mother-in-law kept picking up vegetables for Chu Lihua, "Lihua, don't be polite, just treat this place as your own home. It's not easy to be alone in Beijing. You should eat more, look at how skinny you are  Ah. Your parents should feel sorry for you when you go home."

    God!  They are all kinds of meat, and Chu Lihua dislikes meat the most, especially braised pork!

    Except for fish, other meats are fat for Chu Lihua.  Because there was a little bit of fat sticking together, Chu Lihua would feel nauseous after eating it, and even vomited it out.

    "Thank you, Auntie. I just didn't like meat very much when I was a child, so I didn't gain much weight. However, in fact, I look thin, mainly because my bones are small. You see, these are all meat. I guess, eight out of ten  Nine are all fat. Hee hee. When I first came to Beijing, it was about 80 catties, but now it¡¯s 88 catties!"

    Chu Lihua refused again and again, she really couldn't bear it!

    "It's still called fat, you are not half as heavy as me."

    Tang Xue's mother-in-law was still so enthusiastic.

    This New Year's Eve dinner, what Chu Lihua ate was simply¡ªtwo words¡ªforced, yes, plus restraint, you must hold back how embarrassing it is to vomit!

    It can be said that Chu Lihua swallowed other dishes or soup whole, and dared not chew it!

    Finally, when everyone was full, Chu Lihua also forcibly swallowed the meat and vegetables caught in her own bowl.

    "Let's set off the fireworks now!"

    Yifan's suggestion at this time is simply a sound of nature to Chu Lihua, don't go out and move around, blow the cold wind.  It's really unbearable.

    The fireworks and firecrackers were all bought by Zhang Zike, and Chu Lihua was ashamed to waste other people's.

    After playing with Yifan with a fireworks set off, he stood aside and watched the whole family play.

    What will the family members far away be doing at this time?

    Nine times out of ten it is watching TV.

    Chu Lihua has only seen this kind of family setting off fireworks together on TV.

    It feels as if southerners are not so keen on Chinese New Year.

    Basically all kinds of fun for children.

    At this point, Chu Lihua thought, in the future, she should find a boyfriend from the north.

    After all, I still prefer the way the northerners celebrate the New Year.

    Of course, the north in Chu Lihua's eyes is the area north of Shandong and Hebei.

    After all the fireworks and firecrackers were set off, Yifan still had something to say.

    However, apart from the headache of eating, he is basically obedient.  So, still?? Obediently followed the adults home.

    On the way, the little guy secretly took Chu Lihua's hand and asked her if she could take him to set off fireworks later.

    "Yifan, other aunts have never rejected you. But this time I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Auntie won't let you go!"

    This toy is not a good toy, Chu Lihua is afraid that something will happen if she is not careful.  Then she is the sinner of their old Zhang family.

    When she was a child, Chu Lihua was first received by her parents.

    I especially like playing with children.

    However, because Chu Lihua is the oldest among them.

    ? Every time other children accidentally bump into it, their parents will come to the door to claim compensation.

    Chu Lihua didn't know how many times she was beaten with sticks and how many nights she was forced to kneel without eating.

    Gradually, Chu Lihua didn't dare to get so close to children.

    After returning to Tang Xue's house, the family started playing mahjong and waited for the New Year's Eve.

    Chu Lihua watched TV with Yifan.

    Chu Lihua has never been interested in games such as mahjong and poker, and even feels a little bit pale when talking about them.

    Mainly due to the influence of Daddy Liang's incident.

    Moreover, Chu Lihua's family members don't know how to play these things.

    Chu Lihua thought that Yifan would definitely not be able to endure it in the end, and she could take advantage of taking care of him to sleep for a while.  After all, Chu Lihua had never kept the New Year's Eve before at home.

    Unexpectedly, the little guy was quite energetic, but it was Chu Lihua's head bit by bit.

    "Aunt Lihua, are you sleepy?"

    Sitting in Chu Lihua's arms and watching TV, Yifan turned to ask Chu Lihua.

    "No, Auntie just nodded her head because she thought it made sense."

    Chu Lihua denied it.

    It seems that the custom of the northerners is to watch the year and not get sleepy.

    "Then tell me why firecrackers can only be set off during the Chinese New Year?"

    "You don't watch cartoons anymore?"

    "No, I like listening to stories."

    Seeing the expectant look on the little guy's face, of course Chu Lihua couldn't refuse.

    "It is said that a long time ago, there was a very fierce monster that always came out to grab things during the Chinese New Year. People were very helpless about it. After all, in those years, no one was so rich. Later, by chance, someone discovered that  A monster is particularly afraid of red and noise. So during the Chinese New Year, everyone will wear red clothes and set off firecrackers to scare the monster. The monster will gradually disappear. Because it always appears during the New Year, it is also called  Zodiac."

    After Chu Lihua finished speaking, she looked at Yifan.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
