With two more workers at home this year, our conditions have improved and we have prepared a sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner.

Steamed cured duck with taro, egg dumplings, cabbage stewed with frozen tofu, sauerkraut stewed with pork belly, eggplant and potatoes, candied sweet potato, fried meat slices, fried radish meatballs, fried fish slices, with kelp and pork ribs soup and braised carp in the middle.

Of course, carp cannot be eaten, it is only for viewing, which is called "abundance every year".

When it was time to eat, everyone reached for the fried food with their chopsticks. They usually used oil sparingly, and only indulged themselves during the Chinese New Year, so of course they had to eat to their heart's content.

At this moment, every household is filled with the aroma of meat. No one will envy other families. After eating, they sit under the widest eaves in the yard and chat.

The chairs were arranged in a circle, with a large pot of fire burning in the middle, crackling and burning the old tree roots. The elm wood knots were very durable and would not go out for several hours.

Someone took out a radio and started playing the radio. Everyone gathered around to listen and urged him to turn up the volume. They told him not to be afraid of wasting electricity during the New Year.

The host spoke in a standard, square tone, reviewing 1968 and looking forward to 1969, which He Ruixue found quite novel.

Although most of the content will not be realized and is too extreme, it can still demonstrate the unprecedented pace of unity and selfless dedication of the people today.

As soon as they were notified that there would be no Spring Festival holiday, they refunded all their train and bus tickets for returning home without a second thought, responding to the call in an extraordinary way. If they were in the future, they would be considered good-tempered if they didn't spray 3,000 messages online first.

After listening to the broadcast, everyone went home reluctantly. He Dagen and Zhao Meiya were from the older generation and insisted on staying up all night to celebrate the New Year, while those who had to go to work the next day could not hold on and went back to their rooms to sleep early.
