    With the sound of crackling firecrackers, the New Year's Eve officially kicked off.

    Every household began to put up Spring Festival couplets, sweep away nooks and crannies, and do their best to welcome the next year.

    Qiao Lianlian bought blessing characters and Spring Festival couplets in advance, and boiled a pot of thick rice milk with starch water.

    Gu Shao took it very consciously and led a few boys to paint rice paste on the walls and doors and paste Spring Festival couplets.

    Qiao Lianlian was responsible for cooking, while Gu Que washed the pot and lit the fire for her.

    It¡¯s New Year¡¯s Eve, so we always have to eat richer things.

    The family is not in the same shortage situation as before, and we can afford to eat whatever we want.

    The most important thing is to find a generous girl who can also eat.

    ¡° During the Chinese New Year, ordinary people only need a plate of dumplings, but Qiao made five kinds of dumplings in succession.

    There are ones stuffed with pork and shepherd¡¯s purse, ones stuffed with celery and beef, ones stuffed with pork and green onions, one stuffed with three delicacies and vegetables, and one stuffed with pork and corn.

    Not only that, she also paired it with four plates of small cold dishes.

    A plate of pig skin jelly is made by washing the pig skin, scraping off the lard, chopping it up and boiling it to extract the collagen, then leaving it to cool overnight to solidify and form. When eating it the next day, cut it into pieces and add some soy sauce, vinegar and  Chopped green onions are delicious.

    A plate of braised lamb legs, which I got from Sixilou. The sweet and spicy mutton is torn into pieces and placed on the plate. Nothing is put on it. It is only slightly heated. It makes people salivate from the delicious taste.

    A plate of pickles, the main ingredient is radish, but it has been transformed after fermentation and pickling with various spices.  Qiao Lianlian cut it into strips and mixed it with sesame oil. The aroma became richer and more layered.

    A plate of steamed enoki mushrooms, wash and tear the enoki mushrooms and spread them flat on the plate, add some green onion and ginger and steam over high heat for tea time, take it out of the pot and pour the sauce prepared in advance, it is simple, delicious and easy to make.

    Bi Song squatted outside the kitchen, his mouth watering just by looking at the preparation of these dishes.

    When Qiao Lianlian finally opened his mouth slightly and shouted "It's time to eat," he immediately jumped up, jumped into the kitchen, and diligently carried all the bowls to the main hall.

    His hands were big enough not to be burned, and he walked fast and steadily. The men who were posting Spring Festival couplets outside just came back, and the food was already laid out.

    "Madam, come and sit down." He greeted everyone enthusiastically, and those who didn't know thought he was the host and others were the guests.

    Qiao Lianlian pursed her lips and smiled, "Mr. Bisong, don't call me madam. Just call me Lianlian or Xiao Qiao."

    "How can you be so embarrassed?" Bisong glanced at Gu Shao, and seeing that he had no expression, he said with a smile, "Then don't call me Young Master, it's awkward, just call me Bisong."

    "Okay." Qiao responded repeatedly.

    The whole family and one Bisong all sat down.

    Gu Shao said, "I'm going to set off a firecracker."

    Here in Gujia Village, it is a local custom to set off a bunch of firecrackers before eating on New Year's Eve and the first day of the Lunar New Year.

    Bisong quickly stood up, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

    The firecrackers had been hung up a long time ago, so he only needed to take out the firecrackers and light the fuses.

    The sound of firecrackers, when heard from other people¡¯s homes, is just a burst of crackling, but when it reaches the door of one¡¯s own house, it turns into a deafening sound.

    As soon as Bisong went out, Qiao Lianlian and Gu Shao had a tacit understanding. One person, one small, put their hands on their ears.

    ¡°What a coincidence, Aunt Liu¡¯s house is also setting off firecrackers at this moment.

    Those two strings of gunshots came together, causing people to panic.

    Qiao waited for the gunfire to stop and went to see Gu Ge, fearing that she would be frightened.

    Who knew that not only was the little girl not afraid, but she was staring outside with curiosity, as if she wanted to give it a try.

    Qiao couldn¡¯t laugh or cry again and again. After stuffing a dumpling filled with pork and corn fillings, the little girl¡¯s attention was diverted and she began to eat quietly.

    The Chinese New Year is a happy time for children and a good time for adults to visit from house to house.

    Qiao Lianlian was unfamiliar with the place and didn't like to go out, so he sent some food to Aunt Liu's family and paid New Year's greetings.

    ¡° Gu Shao, on the other hand, was obviously a native of Gujia Village, but he only went to visit Mrs. Gu and his aunt, and then didn¡¯t go out again.

    But when he came back from Lijiacun, he carried a lot of things.

    Qiao went over to take a look. Most of them were home-steamed steamed buns, nests, and some croquettes, sugar cakes and other items.

    She suddenly felt like teasing, "What? Your cousin gave it to you specially?"

    ??Gu Shao gave her a dull look.

    Don¡¯t you have any idea who it¡¯s for?

    Li Chunhua clearly told her that these were for her sister-in-law, but she also said she would go and get them if there was not enough food. Where did she mention him?

    But he would not say these words.

    Never say anything, even to death.

    In the evening, the family started making dumplings.

    The fillings have all been prepared a long time ago, and the noodles are ready. I have nothing to do to watch the New Year, so I might as well join the whole family in making dumplings.

    A few clumsy children rubbed the dough together, but it was just a long dumpling. Even Gu Shao and Gucheng couldn't handle the soft dough. After pinching a few, he even sweated on his forehead.

    Bi Song, on the other hand, is very clever and clever. He learned it several times from Qiao, and he actually managed to pass the test.

    No wonder some people say that people who love food usually cook it decently.

    The night was dark, and Qiao Lian finished wrapping the last dumpling, found a place to store it, and took a few pieces of dumpling skin to seal the knife edge, shovel opening, etc.

    "Mom, what are you doing?" Gu Que, as a considerate man, followed Qiao Lianlian without hesitation. When she saw this scene, she couldn't help but ask.

    "You are not allowed to use knives or shovels for the first three days of the New Year." Qiao Lianlian said with a smile, "Seal it up like this, and you can't use it again until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year."

    "Ah, what shall we eat these days?" Gu Que felt novel and at the same time very surprised.

    "Eat dumplings." Qiao couldn't help but rub the eldest daughter's head, "Don't worry, I've already prepared the food."

    Winter is cold and things are hard to put away, so she has already prepared a lot of food and put it away.

    Gu Que felt relieved and started working with her mother.

    Outside, Gu Shao found a thick and long wooden stick and blocked the door.

    Commonly known as blocking the God of Wealth, for fear that the God of Wealth will run out of the house.

    After all this is done, just light the candles and wait quietly for twelve o'clock to arrive.

    Maybe it¡¯s to relax after a busy day, maybe it¡¯s to wait for the arrival of the New Year.

    During this long but short half hour, no one spoke, and everyone¡¯s eyes were either shining brightly or filled with memories.

    The only ones who have no emotions are probably the three youngest children.

    At twelve o'clock, the New Year arrives.

    Every household set off firecrackers, the sound was like thunder, both to send off and welcome the new year.

    Suddenly, someone set off fireworks outside.

    Beautiful fireworks exploded in the sky, blooming for the most beautiful moment.

    Qiao Lianlian, Gu Shao, and several children all raised their heads to watch, smiling.

    In Xieyang County, Han Zhao and Han Mu also looked up at the sky.

    In Xiyang Town, Shopkeeper Hu also stroked his beard to enjoy the beautiful fireworks.

    Thousands of miles away, in an attic made of red bricks and green tiles, a man less than thirty years old, with a white face and beardless body, dressed in light yellow, also raised his head and looked at the gorgeous fireworks in the sky.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
