These days, apart from Sundays, the New Year holidays are very few, only three days at most.
Even special units like the military do not conduct training from the afternoon of New Year's Eve to the third day of the first lunar month.
Throughout the year, we only have these three and a half days to relax, but we cannot leave the camp.
Other grassroots battalions and companies need training, not to mention the training teams participating in the competition.
On the morning of the 30th, the team was sent out early.
After the training, Lin Dachuan came back.
As soon as I entered the house, I found that couplets were pasted on the door and window decorations were pasted all over the windows.
Seeing the prosperous home, he felt a warm feeling.
It was as if I had returned to my home more than ten years ago, and seemed to see my mother busy preparing for the New Year.
There is no such thing as fake in the countryside.
During the busy farming season, unless you are seriously ill, you have to go to the fields to work even if you have minor injuries or illnesses.
However, when the New Year is approaching, no matter whether they are rich or poor, everyone will be busy celebrating a lively New Year.
Aunt Lin is the kind of person who will fight for her dignity no matter what.
Even if you are poor, you must be decent.
She feels that the Chinese New Year should be celebrated with a sense of ritual.
She has to put up spring couplets, cut window flowers and set off firecrackers every year.
She said that only by celebrating the New Year with prosperity can the new year be smooth, auspicious and healthy.
Lin Dachuan was very excited as he touched the picture of "Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate" pasted on the window.
"Qingqing, Qingqing, did you cut all these window paper-cuts?"
Luo Yunqing was preparing New Year's Eve dinner. When she heard Lin Dachuan's excited voice, she immediately came out.
"Mrs. Wu and I cut it together. Brother Dachuan, will you come back for lunch?"
Lin Dachuan wants to come back and eat.
But at noon he had to accompany the regiment commander and political commissar to visit the troops with the military leaders.
"I won't be back. I have to accompany my superiors at noon."
"This is a lion head made in the camp. Those guys insisted that I send some back."
"Here, you can have it as a dish tonight."
"By the way, where are Jinping and Jinan?"
The lion's head was fried to perfection, neither too old nor too tender, and very fragrant.
Luo Yunqing took the things and said, "I went to Grandpa Hong's place and spent the New Year with him at noon."
This is what should be done.
Lin Dachuan nodded: "Oh, then I'll go."
"OK."
Both of them had a calm expression, as if they were siblings.
Wu Xiaoling, who was watching from the side, sighed: "It seems that you really treat him as your brother."
Luo Yunqing laughed: "He is my brother, so of course I have to be his brother. Look at what you are saying."
"There's one more dish for dinner, so I won't make the braised pork to avoid leaving it uneaten."
Such a big bowl of lion's head is really too much to make braised pork.
"As you say."
Wang Ruhua and Wang Shengnan arrived home at noon. They were performing in the troupe tonight, so the two sisters took a leave of absence and came back first.
When she came back, the kitchen was steaming and smelling of meat.
"Wow, it smells so good. Thank you for your hard work, sisters."
Wu Xiaoling smiled brightly: "What's so hard about it? You two are the ones who are having a hard time. You must be exhausted these days, right?"
Wang Ruhua smiled brightly and said, "Not tired, not tired. I just sing two songs every night. It's not tiring at all."
"I sing male and female duets with a man and a woman. We sing the same thing every day and don't even need to rehearse. Why should we be tired?"
"Come on, come on, you guys take a break, I'll do it."
The meat and vegetables here smell delicious.
The mother and daughter next door looked at the two pounds of meat, two pig's feet and a pile of pig offal on the chopping board with extremely ugly expressions.
Liu Simei had indeed become obedient, and she didn't dare to look for Luo Yunqing again.
However, this does not mean that she has become a good person or someone who will be satisfied.
She thought that her elder brother Liu Dajiang didn't treat her as his own sister at all.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have found her such a hard job.
In order to stay in the army, my mother didn't care about the life or death of her own daughter.
[If I don't have a good time, you won't have an easy time either.]
[It would be best if I could go back to my hometown. She would be the only one here then. Big Brother would definitely treat me well.]
Suddenly, her eyes rolled...
"Mom, I'm not trying to cause trouble. I just feel unfair for you."
"Big Brother must be dealing with you. That day, Battalion Commander Lin pushed a cart full of meat back, and he only brought back this little."
"What's not available for the New Year in the camp? If he really wants to honor you, he should at least bring back something of all kinds, right?"
Aunt Liu was also unhappy.
Although celebrating the New Year in my hometown was much worse than this, the production team would at most give each family five pounds of meat and a few large bones.
In this day and age, every household has a lot of children, and very few of them can eat meat.
But after seeing the house next door, she was not satisfied and felt that her son was really unfilial.
But even if you are not satisfied, you have to hold it in!
Aunt Liu knows the difference between good and bad.
"Alright, alright, stop talking. This is still much better than back home."
"Don't let your eldest brother hear this, or you'll never be able to enter this team again."
Although she was very unhappy, she just said one sentence and made Liu Simei shut up.
At 4:16 pm, Luo Yunqing's New Year's Eve dinner officially began.
Holding the tea bowl, she said with a cheerful face, "Sisters, this is the first time we spend the New Year together."
"As the saying goes: It takes a hundred years to cross the river together, and a thousand years to sleep together."
"Although we haven't cultivated for a thousand years, it's definitely more than a hundred years!"
