Chapter 174 The Qian family has an uneasy year!
Zeng Cheng's face, which was originally laughing, suddenly froze.
The red envelope in his hand wasn't even warm yet, but he was about to give it away!
Although I am reluctant.
But it is natural for a father to give red envelopes to his two children.
So Zeng Cheng consciously gave the red envelopes to the two children.
Dabao and Xiaobao happily took the red envelopes handed to them by their father, and clenched their hands tightly, as if they were afraid that the precious red envelopes would suddenly fly away.
I don’t know why children are so smart?
He knows that money is a good thing even at such a young age.
Dabao has been very thoughtful since he was young, so it is normal for him to know that red envelopes are good things.
But even Xiaobao loved the red envelopes and kept shouting, "Buy, buy, buy!"
but.
After all, he is just a child.
No matter how precious something is, it will become precious if you hold it in your hands for a while.
It didn't take long.
The two children felt that holding red envelopes was a burden.
So he walked obediently to Zhao Qianqian and said in a baby voice, "Mom, we want to give the red envelope to you for safekeeping~"
After saying that.
Without hesitation, he stuffed all the red envelopes, which he regarded as treasures, into Zhao Qianqian's hands.
In this way, all the red envelopes finally fell into Zhao Qianqian's pocket!
Zhao Qianqian winked at her man, as if showing off: "In the end, everything is mine."
Zeng Cheng responded with a doting smile: "Yours, all yours!"
soon.
It's time to eat.
I have to say.
After all, my mother-in-law is a lady from a capitalist family, so she will still enjoy herself.
Even during the Chinese New Year.
She didn't cook either, but had a cook brought from the Qin family.
All the meals are prepared by this cook.
Today's meal.
When celebrating the New Year with Zhao Qianqian and her mother, the food they ate was different.
How to say it?
Although Zhao's mother always prepared a lot of food for the New Year, there was no shortage of chicken, fish, meat and eggs.
But they are all home-cooked dishes.
But what we eat at my parents-in-law's house is a bit like a banquet.
It means that you feel noble and classy instantly.
Anyway, it's very particular.
Every time the cook served a dish, she would explain the meaning of the dish.
When their family of six sat down at the table.
The little cook's first dish was served.
As the dish was served, he introduced it to everyone: "This is white-cut chicken, a classic cold dish. The reason we chose it as the opening dish for the new year is not only because of its unforgettable tender and juicy taste, but more importantly, in traditional Chinese culture, 'chicken' and 'lucky' are homophones, representing good fortune and auspiciousness. It indicates that everything will go smoothly in the new year, and all good things will be as auspicious and smooth as the beginning."
The second dish that came up was the fragrant braised fish.
Fish words.
Even Zhao Qianqian understood.
I believe many people understand its meaning - "abundance every year".
The third dish is the cute and unique egg dumplings!
These egg dumplings are not simple. They are made by spreading eggs into a thin skin and then carefully wrapping it with various delicious fillings. They look like small and exquisite dumplings.
And because of its unique golden color and shape resembling ingots, it is also affectionately called "fortune dumplings".
As the name suggests, eating these egg dumplings means attracting wealth and fortune, ushering in a good year with abundant harvests and abundant financial resources.
I have to say.
This is something Zhao Qianqian has never eaten at her mother's house.
Even in later generations, no one has ever eaten dumplings wrapped in egg skins.
Next up is the braised pig’s trotters with a rich sauce flavor!
Whether it is braised pig's trotters or ordinary pig's trotters, their status in the New Year's Eve dinner cannot be underestimated.
Because pig's trotters symbolize digging for wealth, they have the beautiful meaning of making a fortune.
Anyway, Zhao Qianqian ate while listening to the young cook's introduction.
I really gained a lot of knowledge!
In addition to the main dishes mentioned above.
There are also some exquisite and delicious side dishes that are worth mentioning.
For example, a plate of golden spring rolls.
After being fried, the spring rolls become golden in color and look like sparkling gold bars from a distance.
Therefore, spring rolls also carry people's earnest hope for wealth and fortune in the coming year.
In addition, there are the round four-happiness meatballs, the sweet and soft candied sweet potatoes, the crispy and fragrant fried shrimp chips, and the crispy and delicious peanuts, etc. Each dish is full of the strong flavor of the New Year and deep blessings.
Only then did Zhao Qianqian see the true depth of the situation.
Or the life of a truly wealthy family!
It can be said that the food this year was so rich that even she had never eaten it in her later generations.
Maybe I've tried every dish.
But I have never eaten so exquisitely, and I don’t know what they mean.
It’s the first day of the Lunar New Year here.
Zhao Qianqian lives a happy life.
But on the other side, there is a sharp contrast!
Qianjia Village.
The first day of the Lunar New Year should be a day for family reunions.
But there are too many conflicts in the Qian family!
Zhou Wen is a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family. Logically, he should celebrate the New Year in Qianjia Village with Qian Sanya.
But how could those blood-sucking leeches from the Zhou family agree?
The Zhou family said they also wanted to celebrate the New Year with Zhou Wen.
Although this was very unruly, Qian Sanya agreed because Zhou Wen would become a high-ranking official in the future.
I didn’t expect the Zhou family to do something even more outrageous.
The Zhou family actually didn't want to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner or the meal on New Year's Day.
The entire Zhou family is preparing to go to Qianjia Village to celebrate the New Year.
right.
In other words, the Zhou family plans to go to Old Qian's house for dinner.
This is simply the biggest joke in the world.
When a man is old and has money, he has a son.
Let Zhou Wen come and eat for free.
Because he is a college student!
Maybe it will be helpful to the Qian family in the future.
But the Zhou family decided to go to the Qian family to celebrate the New Year with such confidence. It was obvious that they wanted to eat and drink for free and take advantage of the Qian family.
Faced with such shameless behavior, many people in the Qian family were furious.
Mainly.
This is not just a matter of getting a free meal.
Chinese New Year.
You said you could either go to Zhou's house and treat Qian Sanya as your wife!
Or let Zhou Wen and Qian Sanya live together at her parents' home, and be considered a live-in son-in-law!
But what's the matter with you, the Zhou family, and Zhou Wen, all going to Qian Sanya's parents' home to celebrate the New Year?
This is a joke that has never happened since ancient times.
Besides, even if Lao Qiantou agrees.
His sons and daughters-in-law also disagree!
During the Chinese New Year, they can invite their sister and brother-in-law to come over for free food and drinks.
But what does it mean that all of your Zhou family members are coming?
It would be better if the Zhou family were more sensible.
Like helping with cooking or lighting the fire...
But when the Zhou family came, they all acted like big bosses, not doing any work but still wanting to eat and drink well.
Regarding what the Zhou family did.
Not to mention the several daughters-in-law of the Qian family, even Qian San Ya couldn't stand it, so wouldn't it cause a big quarrel?
