Today is the 30th day of the lunar calendar, and the Xia family got busy early in the morning.
Grandma Liu and grandma had already prepared the fried food yesterday, including fried chicken nuggets, fried crispy fish, fried eggplant boxes, fried crispy pork, fried shrimps... crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, Xia Shige and the white cat secretly ate a lot of it.
It tasted like an ordinary meal on ordinary days, but it tasted especially delicious after eating it on this day.
Grandma and Grandma Liu were preparing dumpling fillings in the kitchen. The meat fillings included pork, beef, and three-fresh fillings. The vegetarian fillings included leek and egg fillings and fennel and egg fillings.
After lunch, the whole family can gather together and make dumplings while watching TV.
Xia Shige bought a lot of dried fruits and candies when he was stockpiling supplies, and now they are coming in handy.
She put peanuts, melon seeds, almonds, pine nuts, toffee, crisp candies, fruit candies, and chocolates with liquor filling in a dried fruit plate and placed it on the coffee table, and the festive atmosphere immediately came into being.
After setting up the dried fruit plate, Xia Shige ran to the backyard, where the tangerines on the fruit trees were ripe.
With the Taoyuan Stream as irrigation, the small tangerine tree has achieved a bumper harvest, with golden fruits hanging all over the branches. Xia Shige is going to pick a small basket of them, which is perfect for eating while watching TV.
By the backyard pond, my uncle and aunt were fishing with a scoop net. After the wildfire, Tang Shiqi sent over a lot of freshwater fish. Nourished by the Taoyuan stream, the fish were all alive and kicking.
As the saying goes, "there are more than enough fish", the Xia family plans to catch two of the biggest and fattest fish in the pond to make a midnight dish.
Xia Huiyin was picking tomatoes and green beans in the front yard vegetable garden when the doorbell rang.
Xia Huiyin thought that it was Lin Jingjing and her family of three, so she hurried to open the door.
The three members of the Lin family will not be going back to their hometown for the New Year celebration this year. When the Xia family found out, they called them over to celebrate together. Over the past year, the two families have become very familiar with each other, and it is more lively with more people celebrating together.
Unexpectedly, when she opened the door, she saw two people she didn't know standing outside.
"Excuse me, who are you...?" Xia Huiyin asked with some confusion.
Lu Bo looked around the villa. With his sharp eyes, he could see that there were many vegetables planted in the front yard of the villa.
Moreover, after Xia Huiyin opened the door, they could feel the cold wind coming from the yard when they stood at the door, which showed that the air conditioner was on in the yard.
Lu Bo was very satisfied. If the family could live here first, the current predicament of not being able to make ends meet would be solved...
He had just inquired at the property center and found out that the villa was under Xia Shige's name. Xia Shige was the biological daughter of the Lu family, so it was only natural for the Lu family to live here. As long as Xia Shige agreed, the Xia family had no right to stop it.
Xu Yilan looked at Xia Huiyin straight, feeling very uncomfortable.
Today is her 30th birthday, and Xia Huiyin specially changed into a new set of clothes. She looks younger than the last time she met her in the gallery of Yunjiang Hotel.
Xia Huiyin had a pretty face, fair skin, and few wrinkles. She looked like she was in her thirties, which showed that the natural disaster that lasted for nearly a month had not caused her any hardship.
Seeing Xia Huiyin's pale complexion, Xu Yilan couldn't help but feel jealous. Looking at herself, she had been tortured by tedious housework in the past two months and even had a few more wrinkles on her face.
Lu Bo showed a decent smile, holding some gifts in his hand and said to Xia Huiyin: "We are all relatives, it's time to go out and walk around."
Seeing that several people were sweating slightly on their foreheads and the sun was about to rise outside, Xia Huiyin hesitated for a moment, then stepped aside to let them into the yard and said, "It's hot outside, let's talk first."
Lu Bo and Xu Yilan also felt hot and couldn't wait to walk into the yard. Lu Siyuan lowered his head and followed them in reluctantly.
Lu Siyuan didn't want to come here in first place. He would rather have no water or electricity, would rather starve to death or die of thirst, than come here and see Xia Shige's face.
But Xu Yilan and Lu Bo scolded him and forced him to apologize to Xia Shige, otherwise they would not acknowledge him as their son...
He had no choice but to come over.
Xia Huiyin searched her memory desperately, but couldn't remember what kind of relatives the two people in front of her were. The man who followed in also lowered his head, and Xia Huiyin couldn't even see his face.
She could only ask again with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, it's been so long since I last visited relatives that I can't quite remember... May I ask which family you are from?"
Lu Bo smiled and replied, "You must be Ms. Xia Huiyin, right? My last name is Lu, and I'm Shi Ge's biological father. Today is a special day, and we want to celebrate it with Shi Ge, so we came to visit you with gifts."
