The lively lottery event finally ended, and everyone started eating and drinking again.
Excellent employees and employees with progress were directly rewarded in cash. Excellent employees received 200 yuan each, and employees with progress received 100 yuan each. This brought the dinner to a climax.
Many people originally thought that there would only be a raffle, but they didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise, which made them feel very happy. The boss and his team were really generous.
The only regret is that I didn’t bring my family with me. The food cooked by the descendants of the royal chefs is really good.
However, the bosses seemed to know what everyone was thinking, and finally asked each of them to pack up the remaining food and other meat dishes and pastries to take home.
When the dinner was almost over, Johnnie To and Zhang Wenjun went up to say a few words, but Sister Liu and Chu Yao didn't say anything, mainly because they both felt that this opportunity should be given to young people.
Johnnie To: Sister Liu is only a few years older than us.
Zhang Wenjun: Ayao, you are even younger than us?
Chu Yao:......
"For those who didn't win a prize today, don't be discouraged. We have prepared a small gift for everyone. When you go back, everyone can pick up the small gift at the door."
"Okay." A deafening voice sounded from below, which at least gave some comfort to those who didn't win anything.
After a few words of wishing everyone a happy new year in advance and talking about the working hours next year, the dinner was almost over.
"I didn't expect that everyone would be so enthusiastic when we did this this year."
"We can do this once a year in the future, but it's a bit tiring."
"Yeah, and the prizes are hard to find."
"What's the big deal? There will be more things to buy and sell in the future. Maybe our prizes will be even richer."
"That's right, but, Sister Liu, you and A Yao are not very kind."
"Yeah, just look at the two of us working ourselves to death up there, while you two are just sitting back and doing nothing."
"Hey, isn't this the case that those who are capable should do more work? Besides, you two like it too."
"Alright, alright, big brother, I won't talk about second brother anymore. Let's have a drink first, and then we can go back to our respective homes and find our respective mothers."
"Then wish us a happy new year in advance and all the best~"
"Cheers~~~"
Chu Yao didn't remember how she came back. Her memories were still of drinking with Du Qichen, Zhang Wenjun, and Sister Liu.
"Ayao, you're awake now. Hurry up and drink some hangover soup, or you'll start to have a headache soon."
"Ahang, are you the one who brought me back?"
Speaking of this, Yang Hang looked at Chu Yao helplessly and said, "Ayao, do you remember what you did last night?"
Chu Yao: ...Am I drunk and crazy?
"Ayao, he got drunk yesterday and hugged the tree in the yard. He insisted it was me and said he loved me and couldn't live without me."
"No, no, don't say anymore." Chu Yao felt that her reputation was gone when Yang Hang said these words.
"Ayao, not only did I hear it, but everyone else in the family saw it too."
Chu Yao groaned in frustration and rolled herself up in the quilt, feeling too embarrassed to go out and see people.
A triumphant smile flashed in Yang Hang's eyes. It was always easy to fool A Yao after he sobered up from being drunk.
Well, this is also one of his bad tastes.
After the Little New Year comes the New Year, and there are six days until New Year’s Eve, which is February 1, 1984.
These days, everyone in the family, big and small, is very busy, but they are also busy in an orderly manner.
Lin Ling and Wu Siyu were busy at the stove, Yang Hang, Yang Ming and Chu Heng were cleaning the house, Chu Yao, Zhao Jie and Zheng Yu were cutting window flowers, and Yao Jinnian, Chu Sheng and Yang Zheng went out to buy some fresh food or take the children out for a walk, and they never came back empty-handed.
A Zhao and his friends have been having a blast lately. No matter whether they are at home or out, they always have delicious food, even though the oldest among them, Fu Fu, is already fifteen years old, A Zhao and Le Le are twelve years old, the twins are ten years old, and even the youngest, Chu Ran, is already nine years old.
These naughty kids have been spoiled by the elderly in the family these days, but fortunately, they are not the kind of people who spoil their children, and they will still be taught a lesson if they make mistakes.
After a few busy days, New Year's Eve soon arrived.
Now all matters such as ancestor worship have been resumed. They worshipped their ancestors in the morning and came back at noon to put up couplets and window flowers. A Zhao and Fu Fu were eager to try and wanted to put them up themselves.
Yang Hang and others had no choice but to follow behind, see if they did anything wrong, and give them some pointers, but they refused to take action.
If this couplet was written by Uncle Nian and Chu Yao, then the one bought from outside must have been written by someone with good calligraphy. In this case, Yao Jinnian and Chu Yao hit it off and decided to write it themselves.
Well, there are many rooms in the house anyway, so we don’t have to worry if they make mistakes. We can just post it in a less conspicuous room.
In the afternoon, the couplets were posted and the food was ready, but everyone only ate a symbolic amount so that they could save their stomachs for the New Year’s Eve dinner and watching the Spring Festival Gala.
Speaking of which, Chu Yao remembered that the first Spring Festival Gala in her previous life was in 1983. Maybe because she was traveling through a book, it was very similar to the present world, but there were also some differences. For example, the Spring Festival Gala here had already been held in 1980, but she was not in the country at that time and had not seen it.
We can look forward to this year's gala.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the family gathered in the living room. There was a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner on the table. The Spring Festival Gala had not started yet, so they started eating and drinking and talked about their progress this year and their prospects for the coming year.
It was almost eight o'clock when they had finished their New Year's Eve dinner. The men in the family had already cleaned up the dishes and leftover food, and took out the rolling pins and flour for making dumplings. The family gathered together to watch the evening show while making dumplings.
All family members participate in the dumpling-making activity, so the dumplings made are all different.
Lin Ling made gold ingot-shaped dumplings, Wu Siyu made cabbage-shaped dumplings, and the others just did what they wanted. What’s even more interesting is that the children in the family made dumplings differently.
So, when we finished wrapping the dumplings, we looked at the dumplings laid out and thought, wow, it’s almost time for a dumpling banquet. There are so many different kinds of dumplings.
This made several elders in the family smile.
Of course, they did not miss the wonderful evening performances. The famous singers sang, the dancing girl danced very well, the tenor had a majestic voice, and the skit was very ironic.
In short, everyone had fun watching, playing, and making dumplings that night.
When the clock strikes twelve in the morning, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers rang out one after another, and the new year has begun.
