New Year’s Day is a time for family reunion.
The Lin family’s old house, like Wan’s family’s, is full of the atmosphere of everyday life.
In the kitchen.
The head of one of the three branches of the Lin family was cooking, and the young wives were helping.
It's very lively.
Li Xiuli served out her signature chicken nuggets.
A rich fragrance spread all around.
The eldest daughter-in-law Gao Ping praised: "Xili's cooking skills are really good, no wonder Tangtang likes it so much!"
As he said that, he walked to the stove and planned to start cooking his specialty.
Li Xiuli watched from the side and said with a smile: "It's not as good as sister-in-law. The fish soup you make is delicious. Our whole family loves it. Hongyan and I want to learn it but we can't!"
Zhang Hongyan agreed, "Isn't it? I've tried making it several times, following my sister-in-law's method, but it just doesn't taste right."
Gao Ping's face was filled with smiles as she was praised by her two sisters-in-law.
“What’s so difficult about cooking? It’s just a matter of doing it a few more times.
Come, come, I'll teach you again."
Li Xiuli and Zhang Hongyan looked at each other and nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law."
The kitchen was bustling with activity.
Zhao Shuzhen looked at her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law who were working efficiently, and a smile appeared on her stern face.
-
In the courtyard at this time.
Lin Xiuyuan, Lin Lu's three sons, and Lin Qingshan's grandchildren were drinking tea comfortably.
A group of grown men looked at the little ones playing freely, all with smiles on their faces.
"Life is getting better and better!" Lin Xiuyuan sighed.
Lin Fu wanted to smoke a cigarette, but when he saw his father who looked as noble as a master, he immediately gave up the idea.
"Yes, Tangtang said that things will get better and better."
Lin Tang, who was playing with Goudan and the others, turned around.
"Yes, good days are still ahead, and we won't have to worry about food and clothing in the future.
I will buy you a car and you can go wherever you want."
As soon as she finished speaking, the children in the family started clapping their hands before the men could even speak.
Goudan's face was filled with surprise. "Car? Is it one of those big four-wheeled ones?"
Stinky Egg slowly finished the candy in his hand, speaking in a slow tone.
"…Are cars fun?"
Hu Tou usually doesn't talk much, but now he is also excited.
"It's so much fun! That car is so huge! My dad said it's taller than him!"
Hearing Hu Tou's words, the group looked at Lin Qingshui at the same time.
He's talking about a big truck, right?!
Niu Niu didn't care about the complicated thoughts of the adults. She rushed towards Lin Tang and hugged his thighs with a soft and cute face.
"Aunt, Niuniu wants one too. She wants a car."
The little girl didn’t know what a car was, but looking at the expressions on her grandfather, father, and uncle’s faces, she knew it was something powerful.
He immediately hugged her thigh.
Lin Tang tapped Niuniu's nose and said, "What a clever girl! You want to know what a car is?"
The little girl Niu Niu smiled softly, and her fair and tender little face was so cute that it made people feel soft-hearted.
Choudan glanced at his aunt and Niuniu.
He walked forward slowly and hugged Lin Tang's other leg.
The little guy is one of the few slow-paced people in the Lin family, and this is the first time he has taken the initiative to curry favor with someone.
Lin Tang looked down at Choudan, "Huh? What happened to Choudan?"
Don’t you want it too?
Stinky Egg licked his lips slowly, raised his little face and looked back at her, "Stinky Egg wants a car too!"
The child's eyes are wet, and his fair and tender face is more delicate than that of a girl. Who can resist him when he acts coquettishly?
Lin Tang smiled and said, "Okay, give it to Stinky Egg too."
After she said this, Goudan and Hutou looked at her with sparkling eyes.
Lin Tang was helpless, "...all of them!"
I don’t have a real car, but a toy car is okay.
The little ones didn't know anything and were very happy.
Just then.
Gao Ping shouted, "It's time to eat!"
The Lin family members took action instantly.
Some people wash their hands, some serve food, some chat and laugh... The festive atmosphere is so strong.
The Lin family swarmed to the dinner table, a group of people.
There are dozens of people, big and small.
One table for men and one table for women.
Before we even started eating, a small conflict arose.
"I want to sit with my aunt." Niu Niu said, pulling Lin Tang's thigh.
The little girl's soft words seemed to turn on some kind of switch.
Choudan was silent for a moment, then held Lin Tang's other leg with his little hands.
Goudan also wanted to sit with his aunt, but he was a little older and couldn't do anything to cling to her.
The young boy pursed his lips and stood next to Lin Tang.
He stretched out two fingers and stubbornly grabbed the hem of her clothes.
When Hu Tou saw that there was no place for him, he immediately became anxious.
He pounced and pressed on the stinky egg.
When Lin Tang saw this, he quickly lifted the four little ones and made them stand up.
"Stand still! You guys decide where to sit, and don't make a scene.
There are many more years to come, what is there to argue about?"
Seeing their aunt's serious look, the two eggs, the tiger, and the little girl all put on stern faces and walked towards the corner.
All they saw were four children standing in a row like a team.
Someone was mumbling something quietly, and occasionally you could hear words like "eat candy".
Thinking about eating meat, the four little ones came back without saying a word.
The result was unexpected.
Finally, Goudan and Niuniu sat on Lin Tang’s left and right hands.
Seeing the little girl pouting and looking a little lost, Lin Tang asked curiously, "Niuniu, are you unhappy?"
When Niu Niu met her aunt's gentle eyes, the sadness of losing all her candies suddenly disappeared.
If there is no candy, then there is no candy. She has her aunt.
The little girl showed a sweet smile on her chubby face and said, "Happy~"
Lin Tang ruffled his niece's soft hair and sat down with the little cutie.
For a moment, everyone in the Lin family fell silent.
The handsome old man Lin Xiuyuan looked at his descendants and said:
"Another year has passed, and we are very happy to celebrate the New Year with you.
Now the days are getting better and better. I have a few words to say here, and I hope you can always keep them in mind.
First, be kind but have a sharp edge. Maintain a kind heart, but don't be foolishly kind. Protect yourself first.
Second, don't cause trouble, but don't be afraid of it. Life is long, and you will inevitably meet all kinds of people. I hope you will not be afraid of trouble.
Always remember that you are not fighting alone, your family is there for you.
Third, treat your family with sincerity. Being able to become a family is a one in billions chance.
As the old saying goes, 'A harmonious family brings prosperity'. I hope you can do this. Even animals know to point their soft bellies at their own kind, so you should do the same.
I don’t want the Lin family to have a quarrel between brothers…”
Everyone in the Lin family listened carefully to the head of the family's earnest admonitions.
Those who understood nodded to show that they took it to heart.
The little ones who didn't understand looked confused.
Stinky Egg stupidly took off her clothes and lifted her little hands to reveal her little belly.
The voice was silly and cute: "Stinky Egg's belly is showing."
As he said this, he looked adorable, as if asking for praise.
When Niu Niu saw this, although her face was confused, she also showed her little belly.
"...Niuniu is showing her belly too~"
I have no idea why she's showing her belly.
Everyone in the Lin family: "..."
Then he burst into laughter.
After explaining a few things to the four children, Zhao Shuzhen couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"Alright, hurry up and eat. If you delay any longer, the food will get cold."
Lin Tang interrupted, "Grandpa, Grandma, before we start eating, should we say a few words of blessing?"
Lin Xiuyuan and Zhao Shuzhen exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Tangtang is right, this is how it should be!"
After the old couple finished speaking, they left the table first and stood with their younger generations.
Everyone looked at the cute little ones outside the screen.
"The new year is coming soon. The Lin family wishes everyone a safe and happy new year."
Goudan, Hutou, Niuniu and Choudan stood in a row and said in unison:
"In the new year, I wish all my brothers and sisters good luck in everything, good studies, smooth work, good health, and more and more money~"
After saying that, he raised his arms above his head, tilted his body, and made a heart shape with his hands.
The Lin family is bustling with activity.
A certain male protagonist has already started sharpening his knife, and his voice is faint: "...What about me?"
The author, whose pace was extremely slow, wiped his non-existent sweat guiltily and waved his hands.
"Well, the author also wants to celebrate the New Year. Wait, wait, wait a little longer!"
-
Another year has passed.
2021 is still difficult, but we all persevered. A strong heart can really withstand all difficulties.
Everyone has been amazing this year.
The new year is approaching.
I hope that this year the epidemic will be eradicated and everyone’s life will get back on track.
Newborn babies will no longer feel that they are born to wear masks. We no longer have to live in panic, and we no longer have to stay at home all the time. We can travel all over the world and grow up freely.
I wish you all a happy New Year, and may everything in the new year be wonderful! -
