"From now on, if we can have wine and meat, we can celebrate New Year every day." Lu Bairen drank a glass of wine and thought it tasted great.
"Xiao Jin, how much wine have you brewed? We have to brew it every year when we return to the imperial capital." After drinking the wine, the elder felt much more comfortable all over.
Both Elder Hua and Elder Jiu have symptoms of rheumatism. Su Jin specially added more medicinal ingredients to the medicinal wine this time to maximize the medicinal properties of the wine.
"Wife, the old men will be happy again this year." Lu Shiyi found that the old men had been craving for wine in recent years, and they started brewing wine when the situation improved.
Hearing sporadic firecracker sounds on the farm, Su Jin sighed that the New Year atmosphere had begun to feel a bit like that.
"It's so hard to hear the sound of firecrackers. Everything will be fine in the future. Someone mentioned before that the sound of firecrackers is an old concept.

"So, our lives can be better." Du Ruo reminded the two.

Lu Shiyi looked at the hairtail fish on the table, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Wife, you finally made hairtail fish, I think it tastes good."
Lu Bairen seemed to have found the feeling of celebrating the New Year when he was young, and hoped that this New Year atmosphere could last until after the New Year.
"There will be a thank-you banquet tomorrow, and family members must bring one or two dishes to the cafeteria," Su Jin said in front of everyone. "Grandpa, Elder, is it okay for me to bring the small yellow croaker and hairtail?"
"Bring it over. These two pieces of fish are not common. Besides, the fact that you can cook them so deliciously will remind those old guys of home." Lu Bairen told Su Jin.
Only at this moment did Su Jin realize that some of the old men came from coastal cities. They had not returned since they joined the revolution. It was really rare for them to have the taste of home during the Chinese New Year this year.
"I'll keep some for us to eat during the New Year, and the rest will be sent over." Su Jin promised, "Grandpa, tell me about the elderly people who were born by the sea, and I'll send them an extra portion for their New Year's Eve dinner."
