It was almost time for dinner. Those who had visited relatives had returned, and those who had not left would naturally go home to eat meat, drink wine, and have a good meal, as there were always good things to eat during the Chinese New Year.
Zhou Lanping closed the door and her ears were finally quiet. She sat on a chair beside her and watched her own TV. She was happy just now, but now she was filled with only worry and regret.
Although the family is rich now, no matter how rich they are, they are all left for her daughter, and she will never give this TV to the Liu family no matter what.
Liu Liang came out of the small kitchen and brought out the pot.
She put the pot on the table and took out the small bowls inside one by one.
“Is this a steaming bowl?”
Although Zhou Lanping doesn't know how to cook it, he has eaten it and found it very delicious, not greasy, and goes well with rice.
"Yes," Liu Jing took out the last bowl, "There are braised chicken, braised fish, crispy pork, and steamed pork with rice flour. This pot holds sixteen bowls in total."
"Eight bowls each for Granny Wang and the Ma family. There are still more than a dozen bowls left, all for us. I also made pig skin jelly, but we won't be able to eat it until tomorrow."
Although there are only two of them at home, the sense of ritual during the Chinese New Year is always necessary. Liu Jing decided that no matter whether it is just the two of them celebrating the Chinese New Year in the future, she will definitely cook a lot of dishes during the Chinese New Year.
"Okay, I'll send it to them in a while."
As Zhou Lanping spoke, he prepared to take the bowls over. The bowls were covered with plastic wrap and could be placed in a bag without having to worry about them falling over.
She also put twenty yuan in her pocket. It was New Year's Day, and she couldn't go there empty-handed, as other people's families had children.
Zhou Lanping went out with two bags of things. When she came back, she had two more red envelopes in her hands.
"This was given by Granny Wang and your Granny Ma."
Zhou Lanping said happily, and handed the red envelope to Liu Jing, "This is New Year's money, you have to keep it yourself."
Liu Liang opened the red envelopes, which contained ten yuan each. At that time, giving ten yuan was considered a lot of money. The spare ribs she ate every meal were not given in vain, but were given as a token of gratitude.
She wanted to make friends with the Ma family. Although they were a bit talkative, they were very strong in fighting, especially Old Lady Ma. When she scolded someone, she could make them depressed.
She just hoped that if she was not at home, the Ma and Wang families could help Zhou Lanping.
But she didn't expect that she would get some New Year's money.
She put the red envelope in her pocket and went to the kitchen to continue making her pork skin jelly, and would send them some tomorrow.
The TV outside was on. Zhou Lanping was looking at his own TV. He was unhappy just now, but when he saw the program on TV, he immediately forgot everything.
Liu Liang put the prepared pork skin jelly aside and it could be eaten tomorrow.
She also had to prepare a few more dishes. If she couldn't finish them tonight, she could heat them up tomorrow. Since there was a refrigerator at home, the food could be kept for a few more days.
Just when Liu Liang had prepared five or six dishes, there was a knock on the door.
Liu Liang couldn't help but frown. There were no relatives in her family. Neither Zhou Lanping nor she had any. Why was there someone knocking on the door at this time? Could it be that Liu Zongye knew that her family bought a TV, so he came to steal it?
Liu Liang rolled up her sleeves and moved her wrists, ready to go out and beat someone up, no, to fight.
But when she went out, there were three people standing at the door.
"Excuse me, is this Liu Jing's house?"
Zhou Lanping was also wondering who this person was. She really didn't know him.
At this time, a girl squeezed out from the side. When she saw Liu Jing in the room with her sleeves rolled up, she waved to her and said, "Liu Jing, Liu Jing, it's me!"
Liu Lele?
Liu Liang lowered her sleeves without leaving a trace. If it wasn't for the Liu family members coming, then there would be no need to fight. But she didn't know what Liu Lele was doing here during the New Year.
and……
Her gaze shifted to Liu Lele again. The man and woman, both the man and the woman, looked somewhat similar to Liu Lele. They should be Liu Lele's parents.
The clothes they were wearing were not bad. The man was calm and dignified, and the woman was elegant and beautiful. They must be from wealthy families. It was no wonder, as Liu Lele had always been a bit extravagant and spent money recklessly.
My family conditions are not bad, and I am an only child, so naturally I have a lot of pocket money.
Zhou Lanping let the three people in, but he was still a little confused.
Is this Jingjing's classmate? But classmates should wish each other a happy new year, so what else can this be? Everyone came with bags and bags.
Father Liu walked in and secretly looked at the furnishings in the house.
The outside of this tube building was a bit old. He was still thinking that Liu Jing's family might not be well off. He was also thinking about how much New Year's money he would give Liu Jing. He actually wanted to give more, but he didn't know whether she would accept it or not.
After arriving, I was a little surprised. Not to mention the refrigerator, even the large color TV was not something that most people could afford. The house was a bit old, and the furniture inside was also relatively old, some of which were peeling, but it was very clean, simple and spotless. There were also some cloth flowers on the table, which had an indescribable literary and artistic atmosphere. It was also obvious that the hostess of this house was hardworking and loved cleanliness.
He then secretly looked at Zhou Lanping. She looked very young, with black and shiny hair and clean skin. She looked like a young woman in her twenties. There was no trace of time left on her.
This woman is really well maintained.
Not only did he think so, but Mother Liu also thought so. She originally thought that she had maintained herself very well. Although there were many troubles, and everyone's family has its own troubles and difficult people, but her job was easy, she made a lot of money, her husband was a capable man, and her family didn't lack her for anything, so she was well-maintained and young and beautiful.
So among people of the same age, she is considered to be very well maintained, but when compared with Zhou Lanping, the difference is immediately apparent. She has a slim figure, fair skin, and pure eyes. She is definitely a young woman in her twenties.
"Who are you?"
Zhou Lanping still didn't know who they were. She didn't think they had walked into the wrong door, but she clearly heard the girl, who was about the same age as her daughter Jingjing, calling her daughter's name.
Father Liu smiled embarrassedly and touched Liu Lele's hair again.
"You are Liu Jing's mother, right? This is my daughter Lele, a classmate and desk mate of your Liu Jing. Coincidentally, my last name is also Liu, and this is my wife. He then pulled Liu's mother over and came over without saying hello in advance. We came all the way here, and we can't contain our gratitude."
