Lin Meiyu knew that Old Lady Tian had not been in charge of things in recent years, and she did not think of asking her for advice. She just said a few words, but in her heart she was thinking about discussing the matter of building a house with Tian Lisong in the evening.
Their family is now considered a relatively wealthy family, and the New Year's Eve dinner on the table is also quite sumptuous. After eating the New Year's Eve dinner, the family stayed up together. Now Tian Tian, Tian Zhuo, Tian Mu and others have grown up, and they played poker with Tian Yuan and Gu Zhao with two decks of playing cards. Tian Lisong and the other four also played poker in a group. Old Mrs. Tian couldn't stand it anymore because she was old, so she went back to her room to sleep.
A few people were laughing and giggling, and they didn't realize how much time had passed until it was eleven o'clock in the middle of the night. Tian Lisong and the others looked at the time, put down the cards in their hands, and went to the field to cook dumplings.
They made the dumplings tonight and put them outside to freeze. It’s cold outside now, so the dumplings won’t go bad if left outside.
Tian Lisong and his friends went to cook dumplings, and the kids went to the fields to set off firecrackers. In the past, during the Chinese New Year, their family couldn't afford to buy firecrackers, so they could only set off a string of small firecrackers, which they couldn't do every year.
This year their family has no shortage of firecrackers. When Tian Tian and Gu Zhao came back, they bought two strings of big firecrackers. When Tian Yuan came back, he also brought two strings of firecrackers. It can be said that they are the big spenders on firecrackers in their team.
It’s a pity that there are no children in their family now, and everyone is not as happy as they were when they were children when they had a firecracker.
However, setting off firecrackers on New Year's Eve still created a very lively atmosphere. Tian Tian didn't dare to set off firecrackers, so she stood at the door, far away from the firecrackers, and covered her ears in advance.
Tian Zhuo and Tian Mu excitedly opened the firecrackers and placed them in the yard. Then they went to the fire house, took a piece of charcoal, sandwiched the charcoal with two thin pieces of wood, and lit the firecrackers from a distance.
Seeing the fuse lit, they both quickly ran to the side, and then the firecrackers started popping.
Although Tian Tian had prepared herself mentally in advance and even covered her ears, the sound of firecrackers still scared her.
Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo were very happy. Even though they were over that age, they couldn't help showing their excitement when they heard the sound of firecrackers, and they had big smiles on their faces.
Tian Tian was also very happy seeing them. After all, it was the New Year, so it was supposed to be a happy time.
Tian Tian bought large firecrackers, and the sound took a long time to completely die out. At this time, firecrackers from somewhere in the village started to sound crackling.
"I also bought firecrackers. Do you want to set them off?" Tian Tian said excitedly.
Tian Tian has always had a sense of awe towards firecrackers. She has never set off one herself and doesn't dare to set one off, but she is curious about how loud firecrackers can be. This time when she came back to buy firecrackers, she saw firecrackers and bought two.
"Okay!" Tian Zhuo ran into the house to get firecrackers.
After coming out and placing the firecrackers in the middle of the yard, Tian Tian took another step back and had already retreated to the door, but she was still leaning on the door frame and watching Tian Zhuo set off the firecrackers.
Just like before, Tian Zhuo used a homemade wooden stick with chopsticks to hold a piece of carbon to light the fuse. After buying it, he quickly threw the carbon away and ran away.
Tian Tian covered her ears, shrank her head, and didn't dare to look. After a few seconds, she heard a loud noise coming from the yard, which scared Tian Tian so much that her whole body trembled.
The firecrackers lived up to their name, the sound was indeed very loud, I don't know how many times louder than the firecrackers just now.
"Oh my god, why are the firecrackers so loud?" Tian Lisong, who was cooking dumplings in the house, was startled.
Tian Tian was so frightened that her heart was beating fast. "No more, no more, come in, come in!"
After saying that, Tian Tian turned around and pulled Gu Zhao into the house.
Gu Zhao smiled and Tian Tian was obviously afraid, but he was still stubborn and wanted to listen. As a result, he was really scared now.
Tian Tian did not deny that she was naive and playful, but she missed the fairy wand very much in her heart.
Sure enough, the flower-shaped hair is suitable for a fairy like her.
Other firecrackers that make loud noises are too scary.
Tian Zhuo and Tian Mu were still not satisfied and wanted to set off another firecracker, so they drove Lin Meiyu and the others back into the house.
It's okay to set off firecrackers, but the sound of double-kick firecrackers is really loud and a bit disturbing to others. Don't scare other people's family members, because they will have to take responsibility then.
Just at this time, the dumplings were cooked, and everyone went into the house to eat the hot dumplings fresh from the pot.
After eating dumplings, it was getting late, so everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.
Maybe the first day of the Lunar New Year is the only opportunity to sleep in without a doubt. Tian Tian didn’t know what time she woke up. She was completely drowsy. She looked at the light faintly coming in through the oil paper outside the window. She tried to stretch her arms out of the quilt, but she pulled them back the instant she was shocked by the cold air.
She turned over, covered herself tightly with the quilt, closed her eyes and took another nap.
When she woke up again, it was already past nine in the morning. It was a bit inappropriate to lie down again, so Tian Tian pulled the warm clothes under the quilt and put them on inside the quilt.
Everyone else in the house had already woken up and gathered in Old Mrs. Tian's room to chat and gossip.
The yard was covered with red paper, all left over from yesterday's firecrackers. No one would sweep the yard on New Year's Day because no one would do any work or sweeping.
Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo were setting up another string of firecrackers in the yard. Seeing Tian Tian wake up, Tian Zhuo waved to her and said, "Sister! Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!" Tian Tian said hello and went into the house to wash up.
When Tian Zhuo and the others saw that Tian Tian had woken up, they lit the firecrackers, and crackling sounds rang out in the yard.
The sound was not very loud when it reached Tian Tian's ears through the door.
After washing her face, Tian Tian applied some cold cream and went into the house to wish Old Mrs. Tian a happy new year.
As a result, there were many relatives sitting in Old Lady Tian's house. After Tian Tian greeted them one by one, they teased her and Gu Zhao a few times, so she fled back to the kitchen.
