Chun Xiao was a little embarrassed by the compliment, "Aunt is not a real person who doesn't show her face, Aunt is just lazy, your grandma cooks it and I can eat it ready-made, so it's so comfortable."
Several children laughed and said, "It turns out that Auntie is just like us. We are lazy too."
"Our little sister's cooking skills are really amazing. This dish is no worse than the one in that restaurant."
"Mom, you've never been to a restaurant, so how do you know what the food tastes like?" Shuwen interrupted.
"I haven't been there yet, so I'm unlucky. I don't know what the dish will be like if it's this good." Tian gave Shuwen a piece of pork from the robe. "Learn more from your aunt in the future. She's very capable and can teach you a lot."
"Sister-in-law, please don't flatter me. If you praise me too much, you'll get hurt. As long as I like the food, it's fine. Today is the Little New Year, and our family is together. We'll be happy even if we only eat cabbage. By the way, didn't I buy a jar of wine? Mother, did you hide it?" Chunxiao looked at Zhou, and everyone looked at Zhou as well.
Zhou ignored them and said, "Today is just Little New Year's Eve, so why drink wine? If we want to drink wine, we can save it for New Year's Eve. Then we can drink it happily as a family. Today we will drink soup."
Chunxiao had no choice but to give up. There was no rule of not talking while eating or sleeping in the countryside. Everyone was eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was very lively.
Yan Dashan talked about how everyone had been going up the mountain recently, saying that villagers were going up there whenever they had nothing to do, but they always came back empty-handed. Yan Dahe, on the other hand, said that most of the villagers who had been working away from home had returned before the New Year, and he said with some disdain that they were so proud of their earnings.
Chunxiao was asking Yan Bingfa about buying pig heads, trotters, ears and tails from the butcher.
"What do you want these for? People don't want to buy these. I never saw you ask for them when we slaughtered pigs before."
Didn't I think of it before? Chun Xiao touched his head and said, "I have collected some stewed vegetables for the New Year. You can just help me collect some. The first one will be fine. You can collect a few more pounds for the rest."
"We have one at home. It's pickled and placed over there. You can ask your eldest brother to give it to you."
Chun Xiao shook her head. "I don't want pickled ones. I want fresh ones."
Yan Bingfa ate chestnuts and said, "Okay, there are a lot of pigs being slaughtered around here this year, so these things are easy to collect. You can wait for two days, and it won't cost much. I have the money here, so you don't have to pay."
"Mom, please bring me 50 eggs."
"We have it at home." Before Zhou could say anything, Zhang spoke up, "Little sister, if you want me to give it to you."
"We have some at home too, I'll get it for you." Tian also spoke.
Chunxiao smiled and said, "I don't need that many. Then give me 30 each from the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law."
"Okay. I'll bring it to you tomorrow. Your steamed egg with meat is delicious. Look at our Xiaoqi, she's staring at this bowl of dish."
Perhaps the dishes really suited everyone's taste, as in the end, all the food on the table was eaten up without leaving anything.
