There is a Garbage Recycling Station In My Mind

Chapter 78: Lunar New Year's eve

New Year’s Eve is coming soon. In the past, other people’s New Years were lively and lively, but if Luo Jiu’s family returned to Qingshan Village for the New Year, it would be okay if the two of you stayed in Xiaoyang Village to celebrate the New Year, it would not be deserted. It can be said in two words.

   It is usually the father Luo Bang who is busy in the kitchen alone, two people cook four dishes, and eat dinner at about 7 o'clock in the evening when it gets dark.

   Then Luo Jiu was responsible for setting off the firecrackers. Luo Bang prepared the dishes to be eaten early in the morning of the New Year's Day. It was not that Luo Jiu didn't want to help, but Luo Bang refused. After the preparations were almost done, the father and son watched the Spring Festival Gala on TV until 12 o'clock.

   The two occasionally exchanged ideas, but the gala became more and more unsightly, and there were not many things that the father and son could communicate with. Luo Jiu couldn't listen to many of Luobang's arrangements.

   So when other people’s homes are laughing and talking about the New Year, Luo Jiu’s house is deserted, except for the sound from the TV.

   Therefore, Luo Jiu didn't like staying in Xiaoyang Village for the New Year. He usually went back to Xiaoyang Village early, preparing to spend the New Year with his grandparents, while Luo Bang would usually be busy until New Year's Eve before returning to Qingshan Village for the New Year.

   The New Year is going to be much more lively at the grandparents' house. At the end of the year, most of the people in the village have returned, and even if the cousin of Luo Jiu's family has not returned, the cousin will usually come back for the New Year.

   Plus there are many people of the same age in the village, Luo Jiu has more places to play. Unlike celebrating the New Year in Xiaoyang Village, even if there are a lot of places to play outside, Luo Jiu can't go out. Can't he just leave his father Luo Bang at home?

When he arrived in Qingshan Village, Luo Jiu had no such worries. In the past few days, he would go to wherever he wanted to join in the fun. Anyway, his grandparents, grandparents, and uncles were all at home, and there were people coming from the village. Don't worry about Dad being alone and lonely.

However, this year is not as happy as previous years. Luo Jiu’s family finally has a home. Early on the 31st of the New Year, Luo Jiu and Pang Linghui were instructed by Luo Bang and Aunt Hongmei to clean up the house’s sanitation and stickers. Couplets, cutting meat to make meatballs, killing chickens, and killing fish have never stopped since I got up in the morning.

   At noon, a family of four drank a little wine. It is the Wuliangye that Luo Jiu bought not long ago. It costs more than 2,000 yuan per box. It is much better than the Shaoyang Daqu that Luobang used to drink before. Of course, the price is not comparable to Shaoyang Daqu.

   After the New Year's Eve dinner, Dad and Aunt Hongmei each took out two big red envelopes, Luo Jiu and Pang Linghui each received two.

"Thank you auntie, thank you dad!" Luo Jiu happily accepted two thick red envelopes. With Luo Jiu's experience in receiving red envelopes, the money inside is at least 2,000 yuan, and the two red envelopes add up to 4,000 yuan. Money.

   Although Luo Jiu made tens of millions of money this year, when Luo Jiu held these two red envelopes, he felt much happier than when he made those money.

Seeing Luo Jiu and Pang Linghui happily taking the red envelopes, Luo Bang and Aunt Hongmei smiled a little bit funny and a little helplessly: "You two are not young anymore. Don't be too late for this red envelope for the Chinese New Year. I’m not looking for someone too late. I have taken the red envelopes for so many years, so I should have enough."

   The custom in Luo Jiu and the others, regardless of men and women, as long as they are not married, they can receive red envelopes from their elders during the Chinese New Year, and they are not allowed to refuse.

   But after getting married, these elders' red envelopes are gone. Not only can you not receive red envelopes, but you also have to give red envelopes to your elders during Chinese New Year.

   So at a certain age, when the elders give red envelopes, they will always say such things, urging you to find a partner to get married.

   I don’t know if these parents and elders are worried about everyone’s life-long events, or are they reluctant to give everyone red envelopes

   But Luo Jiu is only 22 years old, and it’s very early to get married, even if it’s seven or eight years later, it’s not too late. Of course, they are incomparable with the two fairy figures of Wang Peng and Cheng Ping.

   With so many classmates, Luo Jiu has also seen these two characters. Those who hold their children and take college graduation photos, Luo Jiu knows only those couples.

   However, Pang Linghui will be 25 years old after the end of the year. Although she is not very old, she has reached the age when she can get married. Pang Linghui is two years younger than Luo Jinyan and exactly two years older than Luo Jiu.

   So before Pang Linghui gets married, the family shouldn't urge Luo Jiu to get married on a blind date for the time being, and it can be regarded as blocking the bullet for Luo Jiu.

Seeing that Dad had almost prepared the dishes for tomorrow morning, Luo Jiu, who couldn't stand watching the gala, suggested: "Now the Spring Festival gala is getting more and more ugly. How about we play mahjong? See Auntie and Dad, can you two win back some of the New Year's money that you just gave us?"

When I heard that I was going to play mahjong, Aunt Hongmei, who was originally sitting on the sofa drowsy, immediately became energetic: "Okay, I haven't played mahjong with Xiao Jiu yet, but I play mahjong less, you guys But let me be a little bit."

In the past, when Luo Jiu went to Hongmei wholesale department to buy things, he would often hear Aunt Hongmei and the owner of the shop next door yelling about playing mahjong, but the number of times they really played was very small. Everyone was busy doing business. I have time to sit down and play mahjong, so I just talk about it.

   Luobang connected the power to the mahjong table and said while waiting for the shuffle, "Say OK first, we will go to bed at 12 o'clock, and get up early for dinner tomorrow."

In Luo Jiu's New Year, the meal on Lunar New Year’s Eve is generally simple, and the most abundant one is the meal on the morning of the New Year’s Day~www.novelmt.com~Like Luo Jiu’s house, this year’s New Year’s Eve meal Only six dishes were prepared for this meal on the 30th night, and eight dishes will be prepared tomorrow morning.

   is different from some places. More than a dozen dishes are prepared during the New Year. In M County, there are usually eight or ten dishes during the New Year, but they are all hard dishes.

Like Luo Jiu’s eight dishes on New Year’s Day, there are two bowls of meat, a bowl of bacon, a bowl of braised pork leg, a cured fish, a braised fish, a chicken, a bowl of meatballs, and a bowl of mutton. , A bowl of pig's feet stewed with radish.

  The all-inclusive large bowls are filled with so many dishes. It takes several days to finish eating.

   "The bacon is cooked, I'll cut some bacon for you to taste the taste, Xiao Jiu, you go downstairs and set off the fireworks. Everyone is setting off fireworks outside. Let's set off ours too!"

   When having dinner just now, Luo Jiu set off several firecrackers and four barrels of fireworks. However, this year I bought a lot of firecrackers and fireworks at home, and I used my family’s pickup truck to pull a car from the wholesaler of firecrackers, which cost Luo Jiu more than 8,000 yuan.

   But what Luo Jiu said to his father Luo Bang only spent more than 3,000 yuan, because in previous years when he returned to Qingshan for the New Year, he usually bought more than 2,000 yuan of firecrackers. But this year is different from previous years, so Luo Jiu didn't say anything about the firecrackers that Luo Jiu bought for more than 3,000 yuan.

   And in previous years, firecrackers were always set off secretly around the county seat. From the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the village horns kept beeping, so that everyone should not set off firecrackers during the New Year.

   It’s this year that I have never called for no firecrackers to be set off. I just want everyone to be safe when setting off firecrackers. Therefore, since the afternoon, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks in the village has not stopped, and the air is filled with a smell of nitrate.
