Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 144 Lin Jiao's Change (1)
Seeing that the time was almost up, Mrs. Li started to boil water and prepared to eat dumplings, because when the time came, every household had to sit together to eat dumplings.

In fact, this is also the meaning and omen of auspicious reunion. At this moment of welcoming the new year and saying goodbye to the old, the whole family eats dumplings together, which represents nothing more than a lively reunion.

The water in the pot was boiled, so Li Shi put a curtained dumpling into the pot, about eighty or ninety, because there were too many dumplings, and everyone might not be able to eat it, ten dumplings per person. Make a dumpling, taste it, and the meaning will be made.

Looking at the white and fat dumplings that kept rolling in the pot, and the steaming heat was rising continuously, Lin Xiaoqiao suddenly thought at this moment, the parents in the previous life, remembering the lively scene of welcoming the New Year with them, eyes filled with tears. Involuntarily became wet.

I don't know if they are living in that world as happily as himself, Lin Xiaoqiao can only bury his longing for them deep in his heart, take advantage of the rising heat, and close his eyes , a quick prayer, hoping that the parents in another world can be safe and happy.

Lin Xiaoqiao felt that what she could do was to wish them silently. She believed that if she could live so happily here, then her parents in another world should also receive God's mercy and be able to live a happy life. Be well.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoqiao put aside those things and waited wholeheartedly for the pot of white and fat dumplings to come out.

Mrs. Li put all these dumplings into a big basin, and prepared some mature vinegar. Then, stepping on the bell, she brought the dumplings into the main room, and asked everyone to sit and eat dumplings together.

The steaming white and fat dumplings are quite tempting, especially the different aromas emitted by the dumplings with different fillings, which arouse everyone's appetite.

Therefore, everyone didn't wait for others to greet them, and each held up the chopsticks to eat the dumplings, tasted the taste of each filled dumpling, and unknowingly ate about a dozen of them.

So, with such a large bowl of dumplings, the big guys ate all of them without any effort.

After eating the dumplings, Lin Erniu took the children in the family to open the gate of the courtyard and went out with firecrackers and firecrackers. This was to light the firecrackers and firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the New Year.

After Chen Xuewen and Zheng Widow also finished eating dumplings, they left and went home, planning to set off some firecrackers and firecrackers in front of their house.

After the firecrackers and firecrackers were finished, everyone's New Year's Eve mission was over, so everyone went back to their rooms to rest and sleep.

The next morning, before dawn, Lin Xiaoqiao was awakened by the sound of firecrackers one after another.

Lin Xiaoqiao opened his hazy eyes and turned his body to continue to sleep, but vaguely saw something like a red envelope next to his pillow.

She stretched out her hand to touch it, took a look in front of her eyes, it was really a red envelope, opened the red envelope and took a look, there was a silver coin of a tael of silver inside, and the silver coin looked like it was brand new.

Could it be that this is the legendary New Year's money, which should have been put quietly by my parents when I fell asleep at night.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoqiao cheerfully put away the money, put on the new clothes made by Mrs. Li, got up and went to pay New Year's greetings to his parents.

I thought she got up quite early, but her brother and sister got up earlier, they had already washed up, and they were waiting for her to have breakfast.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoqiao also accelerated his speed, washed his face and rinsed his mouth quickly, then walked to the main room, and kowtowed to Lin Erniu and his wife together with his brothers and sisters.

Today is the first day of the New Year, Lin Xiaoqiao's family, no matter how big or small, are all wearing new clothes and shoes from top to bottom.

Lin Erniu and Mrs. Li sat on the front seats in the main room, with a futon mat placed in the middle of the room. The four brothers and sisters Lin Xiaoqiao, in order of seniority, paid New Year's greetings to their parents one by one. After saying auspicious words , Everyone has another big red envelope in their hands.

Lin Xiaoqiao is impatient, so as soon as she got the red envelope, she couldn't wait to open it secretly, and there was still a one tael silver dime inside, and the color looked brand new, it seemed that she was from a father and mother It's really been prepared a long time ago.

The four brothers and sister Lin Xiaoqiao paid New Year's greetings to Lin Erniu and his wife. After saying auspicious words, everyone's faces were beaming and happy.

The Li couple seemed happy in their hearts because they received the blessing from their son and daughter early in the morning.

Especially Mrs. Li, thinking of the comfortable life she lived after the separation of the family last year, and watching the children change their previous down-and-out image, all of them are wearing new clothes, and they are full of joy. I feel more at ease.

As for the four brothers and sister Lin Xiaoqiao, they were all very happy because they could receive two big red envelopes when they got up early in the morning...

So, on the first day of the new year, that is, the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, Lin Xiaoqiao's family had breakfast with joy.

Today's breakfast is the dumplings made last night, because the custom here is that on the first day of the new year, which is the first day of the first lunar month, every household is not allowed to use the pot for food .

Therefore, on this day, the food imported by every household must be prepared in advance the day before yesterday, and today they can only be steamed and cooked in a pot.

Therefore, on the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, almost every household eats dumplings, because it is easy and convenient. As for noon or evening, some families may only eat one meal, and those who are a little richer will have meals at noon and evening.

However, he doesn't do many tricks, he just simply heats up some food and eats it. After all, everyone is eating and drinking today, and there is no time to stop talking, so they don't feel very uncomfortable. If you are hungry, just eat something casually when it is time to eat, and you will be able to deal with it.

Lin Xiaoqiao still feels a little strange about the customs on the first day of the Lunar New Year here. In her previous life, she didn't seem to have discovered such a strange custom anywhere!
After everyone had breakfast, the four brothers and sister Lin Xiaoqiao were sitting in the main room, talking auspicious words to each other for fun. Say something serious.

This auspicious and joyful act of laughing and joking added a little festive atmosphere to the beginning of the new year.

The four brothers and sisters were playing vigorously. At this time, Chen Xuewen's mother and son came to visit early to pay New Year's greetings.

As soon as Chen Xuewen came, he invited Mrs. Li and Lin Erniu to the head of the Lin family, and then knelt on the futon with his knees, solemnly kowtowed to Lin Erniu and his wife before getting up.
