Chapter 234 It's New Year's Eve again

The fat man discovered a serious problem. Qiqi did not grow taller, and his age seemed to be frozen. After a year and a half, he had not seen any old age at all.

Logically speaking, Fatty is almost thirty years old. Even if he is young, his physiological age is unforgivable. But the situation is so strange, but the traces of time seem to have forgotten him.

If Erya hadn't been comparable to Qiqi, the fat man would have not discovered this problem for a while.

When Lin Qingshan heard the fat man’s question, he also looked at him carefully for a while, then shook his head: “I can’t tell, we’re still short of our interactions.”

The fat man thought about it, and it was not obvious in more than a year. It seems that it still takes time to verify this matter. Maybe it’s just that Qiqi is growing slowly.

Logically speaking, if the big braid is careful, you should find this problem? The fat man guessed again, but those who are together every day will not notice the changes.

As Qiqi and the others went out to play, the fat man quickly threw this problem behind his mind and continued to make dumplings. After washing the steel stews, they were also wrapped in the dumplings.

After a while, people started to come to Fatty's house one after another, and everyone came to listen to the radio, because during the Chinese New Year, there were partyes on the radio. Seeing a roomful of people gathered together, Fatty would throw out a few decks of playing cards, and several groups of cadres were formed on the kang and the ground, which was very lively.

The fat man's family also has the most abundant New Year's goods, including a basket of melon seeds, a pot of frozen pears, jujubes, peanuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, etc., all of which are all, as well as children's favorite candy cubes, including orange petals and sugar balls.

The frozen pears are covered with flowers, round and round. Although they look black on the outside, they bite the skin and the pears inside are white and taste sour and sweet, and cool.

There were few fresh fruits in winter that year, so frozen pears and frozen persimmons were the most popular. Even the toothless old lady could eat these two, and the flesh inside was very soft.

Soon a layer of melon seed skin and pine shells were piled on the ground. The fat man picked up a broom and wanted to sweep it, but was stopped by everyone: "You are not allowed to sweep the floor, and you cannot pour things out. This is called "You are not allowed to go in and out, and you can live a good life after attracting wealth and treasures."

The fat man then realized that he grabbed his head and followed the crowd. This thing is either superstitious or seeking good luck.

After a while, a group of little guests came outside. Under the leadership of Erfeizi, they kowtowed to the fat man to greet the new year in turn. The good guy, in his 20 or 30 years, was carrying all kinds of small lanterns in his hands.

The fat man smiled and gave them candy one by one, then put melon seeds, peanuts and pine nuts into his pockets. Gradually, the children were stunned and their little faces began to thrust.

Finally, Erfeizi couldn't hold on: "Uncle Fatty, we're kowtowing you to greet you."

"Yes, happy New Year greetings. You guys are pretty considerate. Uncle Fatty doesn't love you in vain." The fat man looked relieved.

"Fat Uncle, I can't kowtow to you in vain." The snot baby put the sleeves of his jacket under his nose. He was about to apply it, but he realized that he was wearing new clothes, so he quickly put down his arms again.

"Fat Uncle, don't tease them anymore, send the money quickly." Qiqi was anxious. He had already seen that the fat uncle was joking with everyone. Qiqi knew the details. Early in the morning, the fat uncle was muttering about preparing for New Year's money, which was quite thick.

The fat man then took out a handful of change and sent it one by one. Each person had 50 cents. After sending one, he jumped on his head: "Remember and study hard."

It turns out that the big braid is not here during the New Year, and the fat man is asked to help with this job.

At the end of the delivery, Qiqi and Yaya also had 50 cents each, which made the two little girls very happy, and they didn't kowtow at all.

Suddenly, a hairy palm reached in front of the fat man, looked up and it turned out to be a hairy one, and his eyes were rumbling.

"Why are you joining in the fun?" The fat man jumped on its head, but he didn't give it any money.

Then he saw Maomao kneeling on the ground as if he was decent, with his two front paws on the ground, and he kept kowtowing to the fat man. However, this guy was also slick, and he didn't touch the ground, and he didn't move.

Everyone in the room was happy and shouted that the fat man would give him money. The fat man grabbed the back of the head and said in his heart: Maomao didn't know this trick last year, so why did he learn to be jealous of money?

Qiqi chuckled and then took out a one-cent paper ticket: "This is the New Year's money given to Maomao by the captain's grandfather. When it saw us kowtow, it learned it."

"Then I have to give it to you too." The fat man smiled and took out the money and stuffed it into Maomao's hand. Then he told Qiqi: "You just take Maomao's family around and kowtow when you see someone. You probably will get a lot of New Year's money."

"The fat man is so unfair, so I won't teach you something good." Everyone laughed and looked happy.

The noisy was over 10 o'clock, and the crowd gradually dispersed and they were all ready to go home to cook dumplings. Firecrackers began to sound outside one after another, and Qiqi and Yaya were also very excited, without any sleepiness.

The fat man was working on a hair dryer and started boiling water. There were several plates on the table, including pig claws and a big fish. Lin Qingshan was responsible for cooking fires, the fat man cooked dumplings, and Wang Gong poured wine in the house.

The dumplings were put into the pot, and like a small white fish, they circled the pot. After they floated, they ordered some cold water in it, boiled it again, and then cooked it again. After it boiled, it became cooked.

I took out a plate of dumplings and steamed to the table, with more than ten plates in total. Qiqi and Yaya checked on the side of the pot, and then brought a plate to the howling outside and two yellow dogs.

Benben has a big belly. If he relaxes the amount, he can eat three or four plates by himself. However, the fat man only gave it one plate and it would be enough to make it meaningful. This thing is troublesome to wrap.

But Qiqi refused to agree. After Benben finished eating, he poured another plate. The three of Maomao brothers had a small appetite, and one plate was enough. They sat on the ground and grabbed the dumplings one by one with their claws. Compared with Benben, they were much more civilized.

After all these guys were settled, everyone sat together on the kang. Lin Qingshan put dumplings into the bowl for Qiqi and Yaya, and the fat man picked up the wine glass and said happily: "Mr. Wang, Brother Lin, it's a fate that we can get together for the New Year together. I really hope that we can go all out every year, come and take a sip, and we will bid farewell to the old and welcome the new year, and have a good future."

The three of them picked up their wine glasses and clinked together. At this time, a beeping sound came from the radio. It was exactly 12 o'clock and the time began to be announced.

"What a new life!" Lin Qingshan sighed, then brought the wine glass to his mouth and tasted it carefully. In his opinion, this hard-won life was as mellow as the fine wine in the glass.

The fat man knew why he felt that less than half a year ago, Lin Qingshan was still living a savage life in the woods. Now he could sit with his daughter and spend the New Year together, and it would be strange if he could calm down in his heart.

"Haha, I bit a steel pound!" Qiqi cheered.

The fat man put down his wine glass and smacked his lips repeatedly: "Why are you so lucky? I ate the money dumplings in my first bite last year, or this year?"

"Oh, I'm the same!" Yaya also cheered. The fat man finally felt something was wrong. After a closer look, he realized that the dumplings in the bowls of the two little girls were all with lace. It must be that Lin Qingshan and they had already colluded.

"Did you also be fooled by this little girl Qiqi last year?" The fat man became confused and looked up at Qiqi. He saw that her face was blushing and her eyes were smiling. It was probably almost the same.

Wang Gong took a sip of wine, ate a dumpling, and then put down his chopsticks: "Fatty, I think this kind of life is not bad. A village is like a family. During your New Year, I don't miss home at all."

In the past ten days, Wang Gong's status in Kaoshantun has been rising and his popularity has become better and better. The fat man sometimes doubts: Why is he more like a time traveler than me?

Later I figured it out, what is the difference between coming from a big city and a time traveler? In many aspects, we must be far ahead.

"Mr. Wang, then move the house in the future." The fat man immediately climbed up the pole.

"You want to recruit me too, that's not OK, but I can consider changing two houses here and bringing my family here for vacation when it's on vacation." Wang Gong said with a smile.

"It's another vacation." The fat man muttered: "From the future, I will build Kuoshantun into a resort, but everyone will have to charge for it, haha--"

"For the people in the city, this is indeed a good place like a paradise." Wang Gong felt quite a bit like a sympathy.

"It will take at least ten years. The economy of resorts and villas will be developed. By that time, Wang Gong is probably retired, so come here to retire. Don't worry, we can't hack you." The fat man knew the general direction of future development, so he was very confident.

"So long-term things should not be considered first. Fatty, don't you think there are any shortcomings in this room?" Wang Gong asked while eating dumplings.

The fat man looked around: "I think it's pretty good."

"Don't pretend to be confused. Look at this family. There are only three men and two children, but there is only a housewife." Lin Qingshan could hear what Wang Gong meant.

Of course the fat man knew it, and he smiled: "Don't be busy, it's time to import people when the next year is here."

"Okay, Fatty brother, let's congratulate you in advance." Lin Qingshan and Wang Gong raised their glasses together. Both of them knew about Fatty's engagement, and after they came into contact with Big Braid, they both thought she was gentle and elegant, and she was really the best companion in the minds of traditional Chinese men.

The fat man picked up the wine glass and drank most of the wine in one go. The big braids couldn't celebrate the New Year together. In fact, the fat man felt very regretful, but fortunately, just like he said: There is no pain of parting, so how can we have the joy of meeting each other in the future?

Thinking about the Chinese New Year last year, my family was just him and Qiqi. At most, there were still a mao. Now there are more people and more pets. Life is getting more and more lively and better. Just like this era, there are huge changes every year.

He grabbed a dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth. The fat man smacked his lips hard: "It's really delicious."

Lin Qingshan and Wang Gong also nodded together. They also understood in their hearts that the fat man was talking about not only dumplings, but the whole life.

Qiqi and Yaya jumped underground for a while, and finally fell asleep on the tip of the kang. The three of them pulled the table to the head of the kang, chatting and savoring slowly. They didn't know how much they drank, nor did they know when they fell asleep.

Another big day spent in such beautiful expectations. This is the case with the fat man’s family, and the same is true for other families in Kuangshantun. Everyone’s heart is filled with a yearning for a happy life.
