Chapter 390 New Year's Eve Dinner

"Want to eat?" Shen Zhihua saw Chen Cheng swallowing his saliva, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'll buy two fish from Uncle Jiansheng later, one big and one small, the big one is for frying fish buns, and the small one is for Chinese New Year Braised, what do you think?"

"Okay, okay!" Chen Cheng was of course happy, but said with some worry, "You haven't even bombed before, can you know?"

"You forgot, your mother fried it for me before, I've seen it." Shen Zhihua thought for a while before saying, "But I'm not sure if it tastes good after frying, call Aunt Six to come over with me, a fish six or seven It’s heavy, we can’t eat so much after it’s been fried, and we’ll bring some back to Uncle Six and the others.”

"This is good!" Chen Cheng said with a smile, "Then it's settled. By the way, I see that Aunt Jiansheng is already selling fish. How about it, I'll go and choose two."

"Go!"

They are sold on the spot in the countryside, and you can buy them as soon as you catch them, which is extremely convenient.

"Aunt Jiansheng, let me choose two."

"Choose!"

Chen Cheng selected two fish, one large and one small, and weighed them to about nine catties.

The price of the fish is 3 cents a catty, which means it costs two yuan and seven!
After picking up two fish, Chen Cheng happily said, "Let's go back and fry the fish."

Shen Zhihua couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, pointed to the other side and said, "Your daughter doesn't want to leave."

"I'll go!" Chen Cheng stuffed the fish into Shen Zhihua's hands, and ran over to find Nian Nian, "Honey, I'm home."

"Father, I want fish too!" Nian Nian was unwilling to leave, pointing at it and said, "I want small fish to play with too."

Chen Cheng thought for a while, "That's fine, I'll catch two for you."

There were already a lot of small fish in the rice field at this time, Chen Cheng borrowed a net bag from the child, got two small fish, picked up a bottle, packed them, and took them away.

Nian Nian is not happy.

After returning home, Chen Cheng found her a washbasin and put the little fish in it.

Nian Nian has been watching the fish play.

"Husband, I don't seem to have much confidence..." Shen Zhihua over there had already cut the fish into sections, and came out to speak.

Chen Cheng smiled, "Then I'll go get Aunt Six here, we still have a lot of lunch dishes left, so ask them to have another meal."

"Well!"

It didn't take long for Aunt Six and Uncle Six to come over.

"Fried fish buns!" Aunt Liu smiled all over her face, "It's not a big deal if you haven't fried it before, and I didn't know it when I just married. At that time, I learned a hand from your mother. Come on, come on, I will come !"

"I've been eating at your place all day, and I'm quite embarrassed." Sixth Uncle said with his hands behind his back.

"What did Uncle Six say?"

"I heard you ordered all the chickens and ducks?"

"Booked!"

"That's fine!" Uncle Liu nodded and said, "I was thinking that if you haven't made an order, you can come to my house to celebrate the New Year."

"It's okay!" Chen Cheng said, "It's the same everywhere, but my family hasn't been back for a long time, so it's hot."

"That's it!"

The two were chatting, and it didn't take long before they smelled the smell of fish inside.

Chen Cheng walked over.

"Auntie, you even added mashed potatoes!" Chen Cheng went in, smelled a special fragrance, and was delighted to see it.

"That's right!" Aunt Six said with a smile, "There are still a lot of potatoes in the cellar. I'll make you a potato-wrapped fish, isn't it more delicious?"

"Fragrant!" Chen Cheng rubbed his hands, if it wasn't hot, he would have to reach for it right away.

"Auntie, it's very fragrant." Shen Zhihua also smelled it.

"When you go out next year, I'll bring you a few yuan. You can do it yourself when you get to the city. Anyway, I taught you. Grind the potatoes into pulp, wrap them in fish and fry them in a frying pan."

"Auntie, I know!"

"Don't just look at it, I'll pack a few yuan for you and eat it with uncle!" Shen Zhihua couldn't help laughing at Chen Cheng's greedy look, and took out a few yuan.

"Uncle, come, eat!" Chen Cheng placed the table on the table and beckoned Sixth Uncle to eat.

Uncle Six took a piece and said with a smile: "Thanks to you, otherwise I would hardly eat it once a year. Oil is expensive, so I dare not use it indiscriminately."

Chen Cheng laughed.

Take a bite, the outside is mashed potato, and the inside is fish sticks.

Because the outside is fried with mashed potatoes, the fish sticks inside are particularly tender.

Very delicious!

The taste of childhood!

Of course, I didn't eat much when I was a child, after all, the family conditions were not good, but this is indeed a delicacy in Chen Cheng's memory.

"It's still the same taste!" Chen Cheng said with emotion.

In the evening, once the dish is heated up, you can eat.

There was fish on chips as a meal, and everyone had a good time eating in the evening.

After eating, Aunt Six and the others also left.

Before leaving, Chen Cheng asked them to take away a large bag of fish wrapped in potatoes.

I can't eat that much myself.

The next step is to clean up.

Tomorrow is the official Chinese New Year!

Chen Cheng and Shen Zhihua got up early the next morning.

There are a lot of things to do today, and there are chickens and chickens, and various worships, anyway, there are many things.

At the same time, the sound of firecrackers came from the village from time to time.

This is the taste of Chinese New Year!

In the evening, Shen Zhihua cooked a table of dishes.

Nian Nian stared straight at her eyes.

"After the New Year's Eve dinner, watch the Spring Festival Gala!" Chen Cheng said with a smile.

"Yes!" Shen Zhihua nodded, "I've already called Aunt Six and the others to come over and have a look."

"Yes!" Chen Cheng said with a smile, "We have to watch the year later."

"Eat it!"

A family of three, very warm.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, I cleaned up the place again.

Shen Zhihua packed candies and snacks and placed them on the table.

Then he pulled Chen Cheng aside, took out the red envelope and said, "Will the children of my cousin's family give red envelopes?"

Chen Cheng hesitated for a moment.

To be honest, he really didn't want to go to his aunt's house and get that blank stare, but in the end, those nephews were still young and related to him by blood, and the custom could be like this, giving the younger generation a new year's money, Everyone is good.

"Pack it up!" Chen Cheng said, "I'll deliver it later."

"Okay!" Shen Zhihua nodded, "One for Niannian, one for Chen Zhang and Jiajia. By the way, six uncles and six aunts also pack one, put more, put 100 yuan each..."

"Don't put a hundred!" Chen Cheng shook his head.

"Is it missing?"

"No, there are too many!" Chen Cheng said, "Six uncles and six aunts have helped our family a lot, but they won't accept you if you give such a big red envelope, how about it, a red envelope is fifty, this counts them It shouldn't be rejected."

Shen Zhihua thought for a while, and finally nodded.

Not long after, the red envelopes were all wrapped up.

"I'll go and give away some from my aunt's house first!" Chen Cheng picked up the red envelope and left, "Uncle and the others just give it to them when they come to watch TV at night, don't worry."

"Okay!" Shen Zhihua nodded and said, "By the way, if they show you shame, you put down the red envelope and leave."

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "Otherwise, you thought they would keep me at home for dinner."

Shen Zhihua smiled slightly.

It seemed that there was still some light rain in the sky, so Chen Cheng took an umbrella and came to his aunt's house.
