"Grandma, what is this?" Xu Han looked at the things she hung and asked curiously. She found that the old people here really have a lot of old traditional things.
"A little lucky bag, bless Koukou."
"Oh," Xu Han thought it was quite interesting, "Then please give me one too."
"You are such an old man, you don't need this, but in the first month of the year, we will go to the temple here to pray and wish you good luck and make a lot of money next year."
"Okay."
Xu Han is actually an atheist, but he doesn't object to going to any temple to join in the fun.
Everyone in the village starts the New Year's Eve dinner at three o'clock. I don't know why it is so early. Xu Han They started a little later, starting at four o'clock.
The New Year's Eve dinner was prepared by Xu Han and Grandma Qiao together. It included chicken, duck and fish. They also killed a most ferocious goose and made it into a roast goose.
The home-raised goose meat does not fall apart. After roasting, it has a sauce-colored crispy skin on the outside. When you bite into it, the oil will overflow. Use water without oil to bake a bag of buns, add some freshly picked lettuce and Cucumber shreds. When you take a bite, it will bring the crispy meat aroma of the goose and the crispness of the vegetables, and your mouth will be full of fresh and salty fragrance.
It was only after 5 o'clock after eating. Koukou didn't know why she got addicted to milk. She cupped her breasts to ask for milk. Xu Han had not had enough milk since she caught a cold. Usually Koukou was still not full after eating two, so she had to add milk powder.
While Xu Han was holding Koukou and drinking milk, her mind was a little wandering.
If she hadn't traveled here, she would be celebrating the New Year with her parents now. I don't know what happened to her parents, or whether she was dead or something like that in the current world.
Fortunately, she is not an only child. She has an older brother at home, and she just got a girlfriend when she came here. She should take her back during the Chinese New Year this year to make her parents happy and comfort her daughter's absence.
In the past, when she was at home, she thought the house was not lively during the New Year, but now it is really not lively. Although Grandma Qiao loves her, they actually don't have much in common with each other, and Koukou is still young. If communication tools were not so advanced now, and she could chat with Tang Yueyue and the others, Xu Han felt that she would be suffocated.
Fortunately, making money is fun. After the New Year, she will plant more vegetables and ask her uncle and aunt to help. She will spend her time on the vegetarian restaurant. She feels that she will soon realize her dream of getting rich.
Just thinking about it makes me feel happy.
After thinking about it, Xu Han felt better. She changed the side of Koukou to suck breasts. She took out her mobile phone and opened WeChat Moments. When she was about to post the photo of herself and the New Year's Eve dinner with Koukou in WeChat Moments in the afternoon, she heard someone calling him outside.
"Qingqing, Qingqing." It was the voice of Aunt Li. Then, Aunt Li pushed open the door to block the cold wind. She held a porcelain basin in her hand and said, "My daughter said she wanted to eat glutinous rice balls during the Chinese New Year. I pinched some myself. If I pinched too much, I will give you some."
"Thank you, aunt. Please sit down, aunt."
"Hey." Aunt Li put the bowl on the table, sat down on the chair, and praised Koukou for being cute and growing up quickly, and then said, "Yes, there is something else I want to tell you."
"Auntie, tell me."
"Just, my nephew is 32 years old and has never been married. He bought a house in the county and plans to buy a car. I want to ask if you are willing. If so, he will come to my place to visit relatives in a few days and you can meet him."
Xu Han: "..."
Is she, a divorced woman with a character, so popular?
Xu Han felt that it was necessary to hang a sign outside the yard that said, "I don't have to worry about getting married, and those who love me will be mellow."
"Don't you grow vegetables at home and sell them? If necessary, he is willing to come back and help with the menial work. He is very diligent."
"Aunt, I haven't planned to get married in the past few years. Koukou is still so young. Let's talk about these things when he grows up." Xu Han declined politely.
Aunt Li said, "You don't have to get married right away. Let's talk about it. If it's right, we can be together. Marriage and everything else can just take its course."
"... Auntie, what I mean is that I don't want to have a relationship at this stage. Let's wait until three to five years."
"Don't you want to? Well, that's fine. Actually, it doesn't matter if we meet."
"Gone, thank you, aunt."
Aunt Li saw her insistence and left with regret.
Xu Han breathed out tiredly. People here really love to be matchmakers and worry about people's life-long affairs. Moreover, he is 32 years old and unmarried. He seems to be in good condition and is willing to marry someone like her who has children. Xu Han knows that there may be some inside story involved.
After Aunt Li left, Xu Han picked up her phone again and posted to Moments. The picture only included the selfie of her and Koukou.
[It's not easy to be single, even if you're divorced, you're still being talked about by matchmakers to get married (pictures)]
Xu Han didn't have any other meaning, she just wanted to post a post on Moments to express her feelings. After posting, she exited the Moments. By this time, the sky had darkened, and every household began to burn incense and set off fireworks.
These days, fireworks are set off in the village at night. Today is especially lively during the New Year, with the sound of fireworks and firecrackers everywhere.
Koukou especially likes to watch fireworks. Every time he sees colorful fireworks exploding in the sky, he will be very happy. Whenever there is any movement outside, he will cry "ahhh" and want to take him out to watch the fireworks.
Xu Han moved a stool in the yard, held Koukou in his arms, and let him watch the fireworks there, while he used his mobile phone to go to various groups to grab red envelopes. Koukou would not want to grab her mobile phone if she was watching the fireworks.
During the Chinese New Year, red envelopes are distributed everywhere. Even though they only cost a few cents or cents, I feel very happy when I get them. I may not be able to get 10 yuan in one night, but every year Xu Han can't help but wait in various groups holding a bowl and waiting for the big boss to hand out red envelopes.
The Chinese New Year here is obviously the same.
"Ding." Just when Xu Han was having fun grabbing a few cents and cents, he received a WeChat message from Gu Yanqing.
