Chapter 69
60 years later, the taste of the New Year is not very strong. Many young people who usually have a lot of fish and meat have no sense of expectation for the Spring Festival. Most of them travel thousands of miles back to their hometowns to get together to eat and drink.

The happiest among them are wholesale stores, vegetable markets, and various hotels and restaurants, which can earn a few months a month.

Li Xingxing thought that the Spring Festival 60 years ago would be very lively, but who knew that was not the case at all.

There are no Spring Festival couplets, no firecrackers, no cries of slaughtering pigs and sheep.

The atmosphere in the whole village is flat, more deserted than 60 years later, only the children are particularly happy, running around the village, because they can eat with their stomachs open on the New Year’s Eve, and people with good conditions even use sweet potatoes to the grain management office for some Use the flour to make dumplings, or fry some meatballs and noodles.

The Old Li family is a family with the best conditions.

With Li Xingxing's private subsidy, Mrs. Li generously fried a pot of radish balls, fried a basket of rice noodles and fruits, and wrapped pork and cabbage stuffed dumplings. She was very busy.

The fried goods should be prepared in advance. Who told Li Xingxing to go to the city to give gifts?
Freshly fried noodles and radish balls are delicious. They are fragrant and crunchy when they are just out of the pan. Li Xingxing, who usually doesn't like fried food, can't help but put a bowl in front of him and eat one by one.

"Xingxing, eat less, so that you won't be able to eat dumplings at noon." Li Xiuhong reminded.

Li Xingxing made an OK gesture.

Li Xiuhong couldn't understand, "What do you mean? Are you here?"

Li Xingxing forgot that his mother didn't understand English, "I just heard it!"

Li Xiuhong snorted, took out the radish balls and packed them into nine bowls, and rudely ordered her daughter: "After eating, bring it to your uncles, and by the way, tell them that you don't need to send food to our house, keep them for yourself. Eat."

"As ordered!"

In fact, the nine uncles and uncles have sons who work as workers, and they live better than the old couple, but everyone will be careful about their own family. Those sons and daughters-in-law did not come back for the New Year at all, for fear that the old family would take away the scarce supplies for the New Year and treat their children badly.

The small abacus is very precise.

The old couple can see it through and think about it. In addition, there are many children and grandchildren, and they can't sit at home. They stopped celebrating the New Year with their sons and grandchildren a few years ago.

There is a saying that the smell is far and near, and the relationship is better.

As a daughter-in-law, she doesn't like that her in-laws are too strict and control the family's materials.

Li Dazhu's family also made meat dumplings, steamed sausages and salted fish. Sister Fang's three children stood at the door of the kitchen and waited, drooling. When Li Xingxing came out with a bowl of oily radish balls from the basket, the aunt's aunt came out. Immediately said: "Xingxing, you are here just in time, bring some steamed salted fish to add a dish to your grandma and grandpa."

Li Xingxing waved his hand: "No need. Daughter, we have few people and the food is quite enough. Let's leave the salted fish for you to eat!"

She waved to three scrawny little dolls with big heads.

The three children knew this little aunt of Bai Bai Xiangxiang, and every time they saw her, they had candy!
So, he stumbled and ran to Li Xingxing. The youngest child did not cry when he fell somersaults. He got up and continued to run. He stood in front of Li Xingxing, with his face raised, thumbs up, and big eyes full of anticipation, "Auntie!"

"Don't eat your hands, it's unsanitary. Auntie invites you to eat candy, there's toffee!" Li Xingxing took out a large amount of white rabbit toffee from the big pocket of his coat. A toffee, a nougat, and two hard candies, and then said to the smiling aunt, "I'm leaving, I have to give the other uncles balls."

"Then I won't leave you!" The aunt's favorite person is Li Xingxing.

For no other reason, she has money and she is generous.
