Chapter 66 New Year's Eve
On New Year's Eve, the family got up early.
In the first two days, Lin Huazhi found someone to clean up the front and back of the small courtyard house, inside and outside the courtyard, and the seams of the roads were cleaned up. The window room was pasted with white paper, and the earthen kang was also reorganized, covered with new quilts, and cleaned up like a new home.
After getting up, Lin Huazhi asked Lin to stay in the house to paste window flowers. She and Lin Yuyang went out to paste couplets and door gods.
Spring Festival couplets were written by her yesterday. The first couplet is: heaven and the smooth family to add wealth, and the next couplet is: peace and good luck to people, horizontal criticism: happiness and happiness.
After posting the door god, Lin Yuyang took two steps back, looked left and right, and teased her, "Sister, the more you write this word, the better. You are so strange that you can be a master in our college."
Lin Huazhi gave him a white look: "How difficult is it to write a word? If I can be a doctor at this level, I think you are also a bad thing.
Lin Yuyang laughed and pushed her into the door.
Lin knew that Lin Huazhi had not loved the kitchen for half a year, and did not let her follow him into the kitchen. The wet nurse also said, "Huazhi, you can stay in the house. The kitchen is handled by me and your mother. Will you be hungry?"
Lin Yuyang remembered that Lin Huazhi had just scolded him. He put on a grimace and smiled and said, "My sister is like this, she doesn't go to the kitchen and is thinking about eating. At first glance, she is the master who is lazy. It's a pity, it's a pity, the life of the young lady, the body of the girl.
Lin Huazhi heard this and was about to hit him. Lin Yuyang hid outside the house and stood in the courtyard with his waist crossed and laughed: "If you have the ability, come out and hit me?"
The wet nurse laughed twice, turned her head to look at Lin Huazhi, and whispered, "It's good for you to be like this now. Don't worry about the past." The wet nurse was afraid that Lin Yuyang's last sentence "Miss's life, girl's body" would make Lin Huazhi unhappy.
Lin Huazhi squeezed her lips, and there was no anger on her face: "Nanny, I understand. I have always ignored that bastard's words, and he is not wrong. She stretched out her hand and nodded her chest, "Is Chen Suyue here a lady, but Lin Huazhi outside doesn't happen to be a girl in the Chen family."
The wet nurse raised her hand and gently twisted it on her face: "You, you can still be good if you get a bargain." After saying that, he clapped his hands, ignored Lin Huazhi, and went to the kitchen to be busy.
There are only four people in the family. Lin Huazhi agreed with Lin early on that there is no need to cook too many dishes. The whole family can be happy and don't be tired. However, when the New Year's Eve dinner was brought to the table, Lin Huazhi saw that it was as good as chicken, duck and fish. More than a dozen bowls and a table could not be put down.
Lin Huazhi said, "This formation is the same as your majesty in the capital. The landlord's house is just eight bowls. Look at what a rich New Year's Eve dinner."
Lin sat on the kang, listened to her words, laughed, and handed her a set of bowls and chopsticks: "There't be anything we can do. Our bowl is small and can't hold much, so we have to use a few more bowls. The wet nurse said that she would leave no vegetables, so I brought them all the dishes, and the small table over there will be eaten tomorrow."
Lin Yuyang helped the wet nurse sit down and played tricks. He didn't know where to find a small jar of wine and put it on the table.
"What is this? Lin Yuyang, did you buy it? Lin Huazhi saw that the wine was not sold in ordinary restaurants.
Lin Yuyang smiled proudly: "This is my own yellow citrus wine, which was given to me by the Master. It is said that this wine is filled with wolfberries and a little ginseng tablets to replenish blood and nourish qi. It is best to drink in winter. Today's New Year's Eve, I must pour a cup for my mother and wet nurse.
When Lin Huazhi heard that it was a good thing, she quickly turned out a few small wine glasses: "It's rare for you to have filial piety. Hurry up."
Lin Yuyang poured four glasses of wine, one glass in front of him. Lin Huazhi raised the wine in front of him and was ready to take a sip first, but the wet nurse said, "Huazhi, don't you say something?"
Lin Huazhi's hand moved a little. Looking around for a week, Lin and Lin Yuyang stared at her. Suddenly, there was something more in her heart.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Huazhi raised his wine again: "Everything will pass, and may our life be better and better. This glass of wine is to honor the two old people who are healthy and live a long life. May Lin Yuyang be nominated for the golden list in high school next year.
In the laughter, the wine glass of the four people touched and raised their heads to drink together. Lin quietly wiped his eyes, and when he looked up again, his face was full of relief.
Lin smiled and said, "Let's eat." First, she put a chicken leg in the nurse's bowl, and didn't wait for her to pick another chicken leg. Lin Huazhi had already put it in her bowl first. Lin turned her head and looked at it, and Lin Huazhi smiled gently at her.
This meal was eaten until dark. Lin Huazhi sent Lin Yuyang to light the red lanterns outside the house, then took out more than ten pre-cut red envelopes, stuffed some copper coins into it one by one, and wrapped them carefully. In a short time, the children next door came to the door with small lanterns. Lin and the wet nurse put a small red envelope into everyone's hand with a smile. The child who got the lucky money kowtowed happily and ran out happily. Lin and the wet nurse found another red envelope and handed it to Lin Huazhi's hand.
"Do I have it too?" Lin Huazhi, no, it should be said that Chen Suyue has confiscated red envelopes for many years. Every New Year, she is a person who sends New Year's money.
At this time, looking at the red envelope in his hand, Lin Huazhi felt all kinds of feelings.
Lin smiled and said, "You are still a child, why not?"
The wet nurse may know what Lin Huazhi was thinking, patted her face dotingly, and went out of the house to watch fireworks with a smile.
In the second half of the night, Lin made pork dumplings and put them on the chopping board one by one, just waiting for the past.
Lin Huazhi stood alone in the courtyard, with the sound of firecrackers in her ear. Looking from afar, every family had lights on, and everyone's face was smiling. Such a beautiful and happy day.
She felt that she had not been as calm and happy as tonight for a long time.
She couldn't help thinking of Yan Shaobai, Du Yinglian, and another person.
How happy it is to miss and live to be happy.
"Happy New Year, Chen Suyue." She said to herself in her heart.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard. Lin Huazhi said to himself that he was afraid that Lin Yuyang was coming back. He couldn't help laughing. He quickly walked over and scolding, "Lin Yuyang, there was no one after dinner. Where did you go? Do you still want a red envelope?
As soon as the door opened, before she could see who was outside, a gangster rushed up and hugged her tightly.
Lin Huazhi was scared in an instant, and she screamed.
