On the morning of New Year's Eve, Shuying fried some chive dumplings.

When Shuying was frying, the kitchen was filled with the aroma of leeks and burnt meat. Chen Yi had already smelled the fragrance and followed Shuying's butt.

Shuying scooped out a slightly cooled chive box for him to eat.

"Thank you, auntie!" Chen Yi's eyes lit up as he looked at the fragrant chive dumplings. He took a bite and found them to be very fragrant and especially delicious.

Chen Xi came in after brushing his teeth and washing his face. When he saw this scene, his cold and hard outline seemed particularly soft. He did not rush into the kitchen. He leaned against the kitchen door and looked at people. His eyes were particularly sticky. The more he looked, the more he felt that he had good taste.

"Uncle!" Chen Yi called out when he noticed someone.

"Would you like to taste it?" Shuying also picked up a leek dumpling for him to taste first.

Chen Xi didn't take it, so Shu Ying had to pinch one in her hand and feed it to him while continuing to fry her chive dumplings.

"Delicious!" Chen Xi took a bite and asked her to eat too. Shu Ying didn't plan to eat it at this time, so he let him eat it by himself. He finished the fragrant chive dumpling in three or two bites. Chen Xi didn't let him go and continued to hold him with one hand.

"The child is here!" The tree shadow patted his hands, and the man did not let go, clinging to him.

Fortunately, Chen Yi was eating so deliciously that she didn't even look over here.

For breakfast, I would have leek dumplings with white porridge, which was especially delicious, not greasy and salty.

Not to mention that Chen Yi drank an extra bowl of white porridge, Chen Xi drank several extra bowls of white porridge, and she also drank a bowl of white porridge.

After breakfast, Shuying held the child to sunbathe. Chen Yi did not run around either, but took the initiative to drag a stool over.

"Auntie, let me hold my brother."

The child wanted to hug his younger brother, so Shuying held him and adjusted his posture. Chen Yi held him very well, so Shuying went to hang the clothes without worry.

For the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, Shuying prepared fewer dishes this year than last year because of the halogen flavor. However, the radish and pork meatballs that amazed the little guy last year were a must, as well as roasted pork ribs with chestnuts, lotus root and pork ribs soup, and then halved pork ears and sliced ​​lean meat.

The dishes are very rich.

The pig ears and lean meat have been soaked in brine for several days and are fully flavored. Shuying just took a bite and the crispy pig ears and lean meat are so delicious.

Even Shuying thought it tasted delicious, let alone others.

Compared with the Chen family's dishes, the Fang family's dishes are average, but that's thanks to Fang's mother who manages the household. However, Fang's mother is frugal and reluctant to use oil.

Fang Xiaobao was chattering with Chen Yi in the Chen family's yard, saying that they only had a few vegetables at home, and that his aunt didn't work and had been quarreling with his uncle every day recently. His grandmother was very upset, and he still wanted her money.

Chen Yi looked at Fang Xiaobao with sympathy.

However, when Chen Yi heard that Fang Xiaobao wished his aunt was his, he immediately put on a cold face and stopped talking.

Mrs. Gao made some pork dumplings and sent over a big bowl of them, which was really good. Shuying also sent back some pig ears and sliced ​​lean meat.

Gao family, Gao Tuan never expected that his wife sent some pork dumplings, and his brother's wife sent some salty ones in return.

"Sister-in-law, you are so polite!"

Needless to say, he had tasted this salty Gaotuan before and was very happy with it, especially as a side dish for drinking.

Gao Tuan was so happy that he took out some wine and ate it with salt. The sliced ​​lean meat and pig ears were fully flavored. When Gao Tuan tasted it, his pupils shrank and he raised his thumb: "Delicious! How did my sister-in-law cook this meat and pig ears? Why are they so delicious?"

Gao Tuan was highly praised this time, whether it was the crispy pig ears or the sliced ​​lean meat, there was a bit of saliva inside, the salty fragrance went well with rice and was tasty. One bite was endless and the fragrance filled the mouth.

The three Gao Zhi brothers and Mrs. Gao also tasted it and found it even better than before. Mrs. Gao even wanted to give it a thumbs up.

"Mom, this is delicious!" Gao Zhi also loves it very much.

The two brothers Gao Xiang and Gao Yuan just focused on eating.

Gao Tuan was anxious: "You three little brats, eat less!"

Halogen is popular here, and is especially popular at Chen Xi's place in the Chen family. Shuying saw the man frequently moving his chopsticks towards these two dishes. The last time she saw him liking a dish so much was the braised yellow eel.

Just eat what you like. Shuying felt very accomplished and finished two plates of pig ears and sliced ​​lean meat in no time.

"Delicious?" Shuying pursed his lips and smiled.

The salty flavor was fully absorbed into the dish. Shuying knew that her man liked spicy food, so she added a little more chili. Chen Xi nodded without hesitation. The salty flavor this time was so fragrant that he almost swallowed it with his tongue. You can imagine how delicious it was.

After eating, Chen Xi asked if there was any more. He was relieved to learn that there was some left to eat the next day or the day after tomorrow.

As for Chen Yi, he also likes salty food, but it is a bit spicy. Shuying asked him to eat less and eat more fried radish balls and pork ribs soup.

This year, when eating fried radish meatballs again, Chen Yi was still amazed and thought they were especially delicious. Shuying helped him pick up the meatballs with chopsticks and let him eat them one by one. Chen Yi looked at his aunt with a smile. His little face was no longer the cool boy look just now. He looked especially happy, with his mouth full of oil.

"Aunt, you are so nice to me and my uncle!" Chen Yi blurted out.

These sensible words made Shuying stop and look at the child for a while longer. Chen Xi also glanced at him.

Then I heard him say, "Auntie, just be my auntie, not Fang Xiaobao's auntie."

When the child uttered these innocent words, Shuying wondered how she could be Fang Xiaobao's aunt. Chen Xi's face froze. He had no expression on his face and just asked Chen Yi what was going on. When Chen Yi told him that it was just an innocent conversation between two children, Shuying pursed her lips and tried to smile, but Chen Xi's face still darkened.

After dinner, Chen Yi thought of Fang Xiaobao and felt sorry for him. While his uncle and aunt were still eating, he secretly stuffed two fried meatballs into Fang Xiaobao's mouth for him to taste.

Fang Xiaobao took it and tasted it, his eyes widened. He had never eaten anything more delicious than this meatball. Fang Xiaobao licked his fingers and said, "Boss, your meatballs are so delicious! Did Aunt Yang really cook a lot of dishes for you?"

Fang Xiaobao couldn't describe how delicious it was. Chen Yi replied proudly, saying in his heart that other dishes in his house were also very delicious and that his aunt was very, very good to him, and asked him to stop thinking about his aunt, otherwise he would have no food to eat in the future.

Fang Xiaobao: “…”

Everyone in the Chen family's courtyard was having a happy meal, but the Ye family's father and son couldn't eat their New Year's Eve dinner and had a quarrel.

It turned out that after Chen Xi told those things, there was no way Political Commissar Ye would agree to let his boss marry such a wife. Not to mention that Chen Wei was divorced and was not an innocent lesbian, especially after she reported to her ex-husband's family, Political Commissar Ye could not accept it at all.

After dinner, he immediately called him to the study and asked him what he planned.

Ye Cen Ning said, "Dad, Chen Wei has already told me all this. There is a misunderstanding here. Since I promised her to date someone, I have to continue to date her. Otherwise, what will happen to her reputation as a lesbian? Besides, she took the initiative to tell me all this, and I am willing to believe her for once. Don't you also want me to get married sooner?"

Political Commissar Ye was somewhat softened by what he said, but the other party really took the initiative to explain to his boss in advance. Either he had a clear conscience or he was very scheming.

After much thought, Political Commissar Ye decided to trust A Xi more. He wanted to break up the relationship between the two, but he didn't want the father and son who had finally reconciled to be at odds with each other again. In the end, he simply compromised and let the two stay together first. What if they were not suitable for each other?

Chen Wei also had a hard time eating.

Chen Wei was still worried because her relationship with Ye Cen Ning was not settled.

In Shilitun, Wu Jianlin secretly brought a bowl of white flour dumplings from home.

How rare is a bowl of white flour dumplings?

Chen Wei smelled the fragrance, swallowed her saliva, and finally answered the phone while no one was paying attention. When she answered the phone, she whispered softly, "Brother Wu, you are so kind, but I may not be able to repay you!"

Of course Wu Jianlin said that there was no need to give anything in return, and Chen Wei breathed a sigh of relief. After Chen Wei finished eating, Wu Jianlin took the bowl and left.

When Wu Jianlin returned home, he happened to meet Aunt Wu. Aunt Wu had no idea what her son was doing with the bowl.

The Wu family was a well-to-do family in Shilitun Village and could afford to eat white flour dumplings a few times a year.

However, white flour dumplings are a luxury for everyone nowadays. When Aunt Wu learned that her son sent a bowl of white flour dumplings to the female educated youth named Chen, she was so angry. But every time her son showed his kindness, the female educated youth never responded. How could Aunt Wu not be angry?

Especially recently she heard that this educated youth Chen had a boyfriend who was a military officer. Even though he had a partner, he still accepted white flour dumplings from his own son. What kind of thing should people think? Aunt Wu was so angry that her heart ached.

Wu Jianlin said hurriedly: "Mom, I eat these white flour dumplings myself."

The look on her face as if she was afraid that Aunt Wu would misunderstand Chen Wei made Aunt Wu even more certain that the white flour dumplings she had reserved for her son had been given to outsiders.

Aunt Wu felt very sad.

The next day, Aunt Wu couldn't help but spread the news everywhere, saying that Chen Wei had a boyfriend but was still eating her son's white flour dumplings. Chen Wei went to work in tears, cursing Aunt Wu in her heart.

Fortunately, she has a good reputation. Some time ago, someone posted a big-character poster for her, which earned her a lot of sympathy.

When Ye Cen Ning arrived, Chen Wei was afraid that he would hear the rumors, so she immediately explained in a serious tone: "Cen Ning, I really didn't eat the white flour dumplings given by other male comrades yesterday. Comrade Wu did give me some, but I really didn't accept them."

Ye Cen Ning didn't think much about it and gave her a lot of food coupons.

Chen Wei, however, was not satisfied with these food coupons and wanted to settle the relationship as soon as possible.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, it was the Spring Festival. Shuying gave Chen Yi a piece of money again this year. She also got a red envelope. The three brothers of the Gao family also got one each. The children went together to buy firecrackers to play with.

Taking advantage of having nothing to do at home, Shuying made brown sugar date cake.

Remove the core of red dates and cut them into pieces. Add flour and yeast powder to make a paste. Put the chopped red dates on top and steam it in the stove.

Forty minutes later, the round, fluffy brown date cake is ready.

Several children came back from playing, sweating all over. Shuying cut some cakes for each of them to eat.

The sweet and fluffy jujube cake is so delicious.

Chen Xi came back and tasted it. It was indeed delicious, but he didn't like sweet things, so he ate one piece and didn't touch it anymore.

Shuying asked her husband to help look after the child. She packed some date cakes and took Chen Yi to Zhou's house first. However, this time Cao Rou was at Zhou's house and was talking to Sister Ye.

Cao Rou was very happy and proud when she learned that the eldest brother of the Ye family and Chen Wei were dating. If it weren't for her, there would be no chance for the two of them to be together. Cao Rou is now using this matter to build friendship.
