Chapter 245: 23 Things to Do During the Chinese New Year
Chapter 245: New Year's Eve
As the Spring Festival approaches, the streets are decorated with lights and colors. Although it has nothing to do with Xia Mo, she still feels the bustle just by looking at it. In this jungle of towering steel, the streets are filled with a bit more of the bright red atmosphere of human life.
Xia Mo and Xia Mi were actively preparing New Year's goods. Including Eri and Genjiro who would be visiting, there were four people in total, so preparing a reunion dinner would be enough.
In the past, people in rural areas used to fry crispy meat and meatballs in a big pot during the New Year, as well as steamed peach buns with a little red. They would also steam hedgehogs with a one-yuan coin in their mouths and mung bean eyes.
Xia Mo would fry some crispy meat and meatballs, and steam buns in various shapes, such as the common hedgehog, coiled snakes, and cute dragons. She wanted to make a masterpiece in the shape of Fenrir.
But the quantity wouldn't be much, just enough for her and Xia Mi to eat for two days. The old woman had lived a hard life, and she liked to steam a lot of steamed buns and fry a lot of meatballs and crispy meat during the New Year.
Even if it is kept in the refrigerator, it cannot withstand storage for ten days or half a month, causing spots to grow, but people are reluctant to throw it away, so they peel off the surface and continue eating it.
Xia Mo once again thought that with her cooking skills, it would not be a problem for her to open a restaurant after Tu Long retired.
But running a restaurant requires getting up early and working late, and Xia Mo doesn't need to run around for a few taels of silver. She would rather do something she is interested in, such as being a cartoonist and drawing some nice comics that specifically describe and depict the friendship between girls.
When you are out of inspiration, you can call on Xia Mi, use local materials, and strengthen our great friendship. How nice it is.
On this day, Xia Mo rented a van and drove Xia Mi to the vegetable market to buy New Year's goods. Xia Mo got her driver's license when she was studying at Kassel College. The school taught this and it counted as credits.
When they came back, Xia Mo and Xia Mi were carrying large and small bags, including a whole chicken and a duck. Xia Mi liked chicken and duck meat, but Xia Mo didn't. Xia Mo also didn't like any dishes with bones, as she thought it was troublesome to eat meat and spit out bones, except for fried chicken legs.
In addition to food, New Year's goods also include Spring Festival couplets and firecrackers. Firecrackers can still be set off these days. Xia Mo's mentality is the same as that of the elderly. No, some elderly people particularly like to set off firecrackers. In short, she believes that if she doesn't set off firecrackers, others will, and then it will be enough to just hear the noise, the same as fireworks.
However, Xia Mi believes that the New Year is incomplete without setting off firecrackers. When she lived alone in Longwowo in Rongcheng in the past, she would be annoyed by the crackling firecrackers set off by her neighbors in the community, and Teacher Daye was so disturbed that she couldn't sleep.
Now that she has Momo, she thinks setting off firecrackers is good, festive, and the dragon race likes to move and sound. Xia Mi is like this, not like Xia Mo. If we give Xia Mo a title, it might be the king of laziness and lying down.
After Xia Mo stuffed all the ingredients into the refrigerator, she rolled up her sleeves and started cleaning with Xia Mi.
In fact, the house was very clean. She and Xia Mi had three rules: Xia Mo would do the housework on the first, third and fourth days, while it was Xia Mi's turn on the second, fourth and sixth days. They would do a thorough cleaning together on Sundays.
Spring Festival couplets are not posted until New Year's Eve. Xia Mo and Xia Mi don't have many relatives. Their relatives are either soaked in formaldehyde or sleeping in some corner of the world. The good thing is that they don't have to pay New Year's greetings.
But Xia Mo thought that a red envelope was necessary. Eri came to her house, and she was so cute, so she had to show some appreciation, right? She gave her a big, thick red envelope.
And Nuonuo, Mingming and Renren also have to give red envelopes, especially Nuonuo, this guy will definitely tag her in the group.
Nuonuo is a wealthy woman, but she loves to take advantage of her. Alas.
After a busy afternoon, Xia Mo felt that there was nothing left to do. The flavor of the New Year is something that cannot be touched or seen. It depends on how you understand and experience it. If decorating the room with red and colorful decorations is the flavor of the New Year, then it is that when you see the house look brand new, a kind of sacred ritual feeling descends upon you.
Xia Mo feels that the strongest New Year atmosphere is actually the days leading up to it. Watching her family slaughtering pigs and chickens and preparing New Year goods is like a separated couple, counting the days and looking forward to meeting him/her, which is the sweetest and most beautiful time. The joy after meeting is a momentary impact and will quickly fade away, but waiting will not. It is so torturous, and yet it prolongs your subtle joy.
In short, there is still a week to go before the Spring Festival, and the list of performers for this year's Spring Festival Gala has already been revealed on online news.
The Spring Festival Gala is a must-see part of the Chinese New Year. Why not avoid it when you know it's coming?
The 08 Spring Festival Gala was pretty good. Xia Mo remembered that Jay Chou seemed to have appeared on the stage that year and sang his popular song "Blue and White Porcelain".
Four days before New Year's Eve, Gen Chikyou and Eri arrived in Beijing, China. This was Eri's first time on a plane and her first time to go to such a far place. She was like a curious kitten, being watched by Gen Chikyou.
To be honest, Genjiro wasn't really interested in taking on Eri's job as her nanny.
It's the master's job after all.
Eri was very well behaved and did not cause any trouble to Genjiro. Unlike in the past, Eri had received various common sense trainings.
The Yaki family trained Eri as a secret weapon, and there is no need to know too much about secret weapons.
Xia Mo: Bullshit!
Eri knew that there were no Saints in golden armor surrounding the goddess Athena in Greece, and there was no Ultraman fighting monsters in Japan. The private Sakuragaoka Girls' High School did exist, but the after-school tea club was fictional.
Eiry was shocked and sobbed in Xia Mo's arms. Her worldview was shattered and recast. Fortunately, she had a hug from her sister Xia Mo, otherwise Eiry would have become autistic again.
The world is so scary, it keeps changing, Eri thought, and it's not gentle at all.
Sister Xia Mo is so kind to Eri, and that's enough.
In his heart, Genjiro somewhat dislikes Eri, and the reason is obvious. He thinks Eri is a meal substitute found by his brother, which makes him feel a bit embarrassed, like the queen coming back to life and seeing the second concubine.
However, Yuan Zhinu is still looking forward to his trip to Beijing. He plans to listen to Peking Opera offline and visit some masters.
The prerequisite is that you can complete the first-generation copy alive.
At the Capital Airport, Gen Chinuo looked at Eri, whose face showed anticipation. He called Xia Mo to tell her that he and Eri had gotten off the plane, and briefly described the clothes they were wearing.
Yuan Zhinu was dressed in casual and fashionable men's clothing. His handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament attracted the attention of many girls along the way.
Eri has been learning how to match clothes for a long time. When Xia Mo was in Tokyo, she bought her many small skirts suitable for summer.
It's winter now, and Eri is not suitable for wearing those light skirts.
Eri has red hair, which is relatively bright and eye-catching, so she is very suitable for forest-style dressing and can choose some dark and cool-colored clothes.
Just like today she was wearing a brown corduroy suspender skirt, a black turtleneck sweater, and dark gray snow boots, looking retro and cute.
Xia Mo quickly found the handsome and beautiful Gen Chinu and Eiry, smiled at Gen Chinu and gave Eiry a hug.
"Long time no see, Eri." Xia Mo touched Eri's nose and said with a smile.
