The dinner on New Year's Eve was particularly sumptuous. Although there were only three people at home, Lin Zhizhi, Lu Yi and grandma, the table was filled with dishes, and no dish was repeated.
The main dishes accounted for half of the meal, but grandma was afraid that Lin Zhizhi would get bored eating only chicken, duck, fish and meat, so she prepared light dishes in various ways, and also did not forget to prepare desserts after the meal. The fruits were also washed early and put aside, so that it would be convenient for her to have a little snack from time to time to change the taste.
The three of them turned on the TV while eating. Because it was early for dinner, the Spring Festival Gala had not started yet. What was broadcasting on TV was today's news broadcast, which was interviewing the festive and lively aspects of the New Year's holidays in various places.
Lu Yi sat next to Lin Zhizhi, and grandma sat next to Lin Zhizhi. They patiently picked out the fish bones for the two people who were just watching TV and chatting with the pictures on TV, and put them in their bowls. They also reminded them from time to time to remember to eat.
Coincidentally, grandma and Lin Zhizhi both like to eat fish. Grandma is actually not picky about food. She usually eats whatever is available. She will be fine just eating rice with plain water, but if there is fish, she will eat two more bowls of rice for the meal.
But one time during the Chinese New Year when they were eating fish, a fish bone got stuck in his grandmother's throat. That scene left a trauma on Lu Yi. After that, whenever Lu Yi was at home and cooked fish, he would definitely carefully pick out the fish bone for his grandmother.
So after knowing that Lin Zhizhi also liked to eat fish, he had no choice but to compromise and carefully pick out the fish bones for Lin Zhizhi every time.
It’s just that grandma often can’t wait for Lu Yi to pick out the fish bones bit by bit. She thinks that by the time he has picked out a large piece of fish meat, she can eat half a bowl of rice.
So Lu Yi picked a lot of fish bones, and his speed in picking out fish bones was also very good, fast and clean.
He was not at all flustered when picking out fish bones for two people at once. Even Lu Yi's already deep and bright eyes seemed to be equipped with a big light bulb so that all the fish bones could be removed completely. His thin lips were tightly pursed, as if what was on the chopsticks was not fish meat, but an enemy that required extreme caution.
After dinner, Lu Yi washed dishes in the kitchen while grandma and Lin Zhizhi sat comfortably in the living room. The sound of fireworks burning into the sky could be heard outside, and the scene was very lively.
Lin Zhizhi remembered that it was no longer allowed to set off fireworks privately in the city, otherwise they had to go to the city square to set them off when there were events.
Otherwise, just set off some electronic fireworks on your phone.
Lu Yi cleaned up the kitchen and went to the bathroom on the first floor to wash his hands with hand soap. Then he sat down next to Lin Zhizhi and hugged her naturally, holding her in his arms, "Is the Spring Festival Gala starting?"
Lin Zhizhi also consciously found a comfortable position leaning in Lu Yi's arms. She raised her chin and pointed at the strawberries on the table, indicating that Lu Yi wanted to eat them himself.
“It’s just started, and the hosts are still the same as last year.”
After Lu Yi pointed the strawberry towards himself, Lin Zhizhi bit off half of it and then stuffed the remaining strawberry butt into his own mouth.
Lin Zhizhi enjoyed the strawberry juice exploding and spreading in her mouth, and squinted her eyes happily. Then she remembered that her grandmother was still watching her. She quickly stood up and looked at her grandmother. Just as she was about to say something, she choked and coughed a few times.
Lu Yi hurriedly stroked Lin Zhizhi's back with one hand, and leaned over to take a few tissues from the table, "Slow down, there are still a lot of strawberries, no one will snatch them from you."
Lin Zhizhi had recovered. She took a tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth. At an angle where her grandmother couldn't see, she rolled her eyes at Lu Yi.
This fool, how could he see that he was in a hurry to eat strawberries?
Lu Yi was stunned by his wife's rolling eyes and was confused. Did he remember it wrong? Zhizhi doesn’t like to eat the tips of strawberries, but the butts of strawberries?
But didn’t you enjoy the meal yesterday? She kissed herself several times, and the strawberry flavor was so sweet.
The grandmother had a smile on her face from beginning to end. She looked at her silly grandson and shook her head in amusement. She didn't know who this kid looked like. Fortunately, his face looked okay, otherwise she would be worried that no one would want him.
Grandma also bent down and reached out to take a strawberry to taste it. She couldn't help but sigh, "These expensive strawberries are different. Eating them makes me feel different."
In order not to waste anything, grandma took two big bites and finished the strawberry. If it wasn't for the fact that she wanted to taste this extremely expensive strawberry, she would have swallowed it in one bite instead of being reserved and eating it in two bites.
"Grandma, eat more. There's still plenty."
Lin Zhizhi said this as she pushed the plate of strawberries closer to her grandmother.
"You guys eat, and I'll wash after you're done." Lu Yi continued.
These strawberries were bought at an imported fruit supermarket the day before yesterday when Lu Yi and Lin Zhizhi went to the city to buy New Year's goods. A small box of strawberries cost more than a thousand yuan. Because Lin Zhizhi likes to eat them and she won't be coming to the city during the New Year holidays, she directly bought more than 20 boxes and planned to eat them slowly when she got home.
I also bought a few boxes of grapes, each box costing about seven or eight hundred yuan.
Neither of them is short of this little money, and the purpose of making money is to spend it. If they want to eat and they have enough money to afford it, then there is no reason not to buy it.
Of course, you can buy as much as you want and whatever you want.
