"Hurry up and eat, let's see who can eat money this year," Sheng Liancheng urged the children to eat.
According to the Sheng family's tradition, the dumplings for New Year's Eve are still filled with cabbage and radish.
Zhou Qinglan ate one. The dumpling smelled delicious, but she felt that something was missing.
So Zhou Qinglan picked up the vinegar bottle, poured a lot of vinegar into the small plate, added some garlic sauce, and then dipped a dumpling in it. Hmm, the taste was just right.
Seeing this, Sheng Xiping involuntarily frowned, as if he were jealous.
Pregnant women's tastes are truly unpredictable. Sheng Xiping shook his head, stopped looking at his wife, and lowered his head to eat his dumplings.
As soon as I took a bite, I felt something hard inside the dumpling. I looked down and saw that it was a coin.
"Yes, I found money in my food." Sheng Xiping took out the coins and put them on the table.
"Wow, you made money with your very first dumpling! Looks like you'll make even more money next year."
"Good, making more money is great, I just love money." Sheng Liancheng said with a smile.
Before Sheng Liancheng could finish speaking, Sheng Xi'an and Zhou Qinglan simultaneously looked down at the dumplings. "Peanuts?" They were both eating peanuts.
"Peanuts are good too, symbolizing rising higher and higher," Zhang Shuzhen continued. "It's Chinese New Year, after all, it's all about good fortune. Whatever we eat is fine."
“I remember my sister-in-law was also eating peanuts last year. I think Mom said the same thing back then, but my sister-in-law didn’t get a promotion.”
Sheng Xitai was eating dumplings over there when he mumbled a question.
Zhang Shuzhen rolled her eyes at her youngest son, "How can it not count? Your sister-in-law is pregnant, giving birth is still giving birth, isn't it?"
This bear is making trouble during the Chinese New Year.
"What about my second brother? He's eating peanuts too, is he having a baby too?"
I don't know what's wrong with Sheng Xitai, but today he's suddenly become stubborn and insists on getting to the bottom of things.
"Why are you so talkative? Can't dumplings shut you up? Hurry up and eat, then go to bed early."
Just then, Sheng Liancheng was sitting next to his youngest son. Seeing that his wife's expression was not right, he quickly scolded his son and winked at Sheng Xitai, telling the boy to behave.
Otherwise, if he gets beaten up on New Year's Eve, no one will care.
Sheng Xitai finally received the signal from his father, and quickly shut his mouth, lowered his head and worked hard to eat.
Seeing that her youngest son had stopped talking nonsense, Zhang Shuzhen stopped being angry. While taking care of Sheng Xinhua, she also picked up some dumplings to eat.
The dumplings contain three of each of the following: coins, dates, peanuts, and sugar.
Sheng Xiping found two coins and a date, while the others also found dates, sugar, peanuts, etc.
The last coin never appeared, even after the meal was finished, which everyone found strange.
"Mom, where did that money go? It's not here. Is it on that other curtain?"
Sheng Xitai was eating a date and a peanut, and his biggest hope was to find some money in his food.
Tonight, Sheng Xitai ate a lot of dumplings in his quest for money, but even after eating until he was stuffed, he still hadn't seen a trace of money, which made him very anxious.
"Yes, where's the money? I wrapped it all together and put it next to the face covering. The face covering is for tomorrow morning, so I didn't put it on top of that."
Zhang Shuzhen was also puzzled. Where did the remaining money go?
