Chapter 367 Big Red Packet

Shao Jinyang responded, and hurried over to clear the table and prepare to eat.

An Zixi wanted to help, but Shao Jinyang refused.

"I don't need you, this table is quite heavy." Shao Jinyang set up a large wooden round table, wiped the table with a rag, and spread a blue checkered tablecloth on it, before running to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

"Xiao An, try grandma's handicraft."

Shao Hexiang immediately said: "There are also dishes I cook here, and the old lady is not the only one who contributes."

An Zixi looked at a large table of dishes and couldn't help sighing, "This is too rich!"

The preparations are quite sumptuous. In addition to cooked food such as pig's trotters and sausages, there are also yellow croaker, fried meatballs, beef stew, candied sweet potatoes, peanuts, cold bean curd, dry fried oyster mushrooms, and scrambled eggs with pepper.

Ten dishes are full, some are meat and vegetables, some are cold and some are hot, and there are also beets, which are perfect and reunion.

After An Zixi waited for the elders to be seated, she sat in her seat with some trepidation. She couldn't remember the last time she had someone to accompany her at the New Year's Eve dinner.

Shao Jinyang opened a bottle of Coke for her, "You drink this?"

Coke is definitely high-end in this day and age, but An Zixi is even more envious of the wine opened by the old man He.

"I can do it."

But Shao Hexiang held up the wine bottle and asked Shao Jinyang, "Grand grandson, can you drink with grandpa?"

"You should drink less! What did your health care doctor say? Tell you to drink less alcohol and eat less meat." Shao Jinyang said: "You have to listen to the doctor."

Shao Hexiang was immediately unhappy, "Why don't I just drink some wine for the Chinese New Year? Old..." He probably wanted to say Lao Tzu, but he changed his words after seeing An Zixi: "I have eaten the last meal in the first half of my life and never finished it. How many years of hard life have passed."

"Oh, that's fine. If you are celebrating Chinese New Year, you should stop talking a few words. Isn't the eldest grandson doing it for your own good? Just have a drink, is there any more?" Du Qiuhua made a decision directly, and then suggested that everyone have a drink and start having a reunion dinner .

The father and the father were holding wine glasses, An Zixi was holding a Coke, and only Du Qiuhua was holding ordinary boiled water in the glasses.

She suffered a lot of injuries when she was young, and she couldn't drink a few sips of tea, let alone wine. As for cola, she said it was like Chinese medicine soup, so bitter that she didn't drink it.

"Happy New Year, grandparents."

"It's a good year."

"I wish my grandparents good health." An Zixi looked a little shy. She found it difficult to say this, but she felt that it was inappropriate not to say some blessings. She was a guest at someone's house, so at least she had to be social.

"Okay, okay." Mr. Shao looked very happy, "There are still a lot of people in the house. If you just guard this brat, you won't hear a word from him for a long time."

"No, it's better to be Xiao An, who is beautiful and can talk, much better than the stinky grandson who doesn't know anything."

Shao Jinyang was speechless for a moment. That's not what they said before. They also said that the two of them like to let themselves accompany the New Year, and that's the only way to be interesting.

An Zixi couldn't help laughing when she saw Shao Jinyang's black face, she put a meatball into Shao Jinyang's bowl, "Don't be angry, eat the meatball."

The two elders were very happy and kept urging An Zixi to eat.

"You are too thin, eat more."

An Zixi liked Shao's food very much. She hadn't tasted this kind of home-cooked food for many years.

"Grandma, I don't get fat no matter what I eat."

Du Qiuhua was also happy to see that she really put down her chopsticks when eating, "What kind of dumplings do you like to eat? Let's make more dumplings at night."

An Zixi said, "Grandma, I'm not picky about food, I'll eat anything."

"Okay." Shao Hexiang couldn't help but praise twice, it's good not to be picky about food!He just can't understand these young people now, they don't eat this, they don't eat that, they are all used to it.The days are getting better, I have only had enough food for a few days, and I have to choose food.In the past, how many dry meals could the common people eat throughout the year?
"Then I'll wrap it with mutton stuffing, and another sauerkraut meat?"

An Zixi had no objection, "Grandma, don't be so troublesome, I can eat anything."

"What's the trouble, no trouble." Du Qiuhua seemed to regard An Zixi as his granddaughter-in-law, and whispered: "I have a nanny at home, so I'll mix the stuffing before I leave. Let's make the noodles, hurry up."

Only then did An Zixi nod, picked up another dish with chopsticks, and asked Shao Jinyang to add more food to her very rudely.

She could see that the two old men of the Shao family really cared for their children, and they could only be happy if they ate a lot.

Sure enough, the two elders were overjoyed to see that she had added another bowl of rice, and felt that the child was in good health and sincere, which suited their eyes.

After dinner, An Zixi wanted to help clean up the dishes, but was stopped by Du Qiuhua.

"Washing dishes is not a technical job. Let them do it. In our family, men have to work. Don't get used to their stinking problems."

Pulled by the old lady, An Zixi took off his shoes and went to the kang to eat snacks.

A plate of peanuts, a plate of melon seeds, and a lot of big white rabbit toffee, and there are some snacks on the side plate.

"Grandma, I ate a lot just now, and I can't eat any more now."

Du Qiuhua said: "Then you can chat with grandma, anyway, it's not time to make dumplings yet."

An Zixi hesitated and said, "Grandma, what time does our family eat dumplings?"

She said the words "our family" and succeeded in pleasing Du Qiushi. The old lady wrinkled her face with a smile, "It's all according to the old rules, twelve o'clock."

"Grandma, if you eat dumplings at twelve o'clock, it's too late. It's not convenient for me to go back to the dormitory." An Zixi really didn't want to stay. She always felt that she and Shao Jinyang hadn't settled down yet, and it was too much to go to the man's house for dinner. Well, if I stay for another night, I'm afraid the impact will not be very good, especially for old people like Du Qiuhua and the others, they will feel that girls are not self-cultivated.

"You child, can you go back to school in the middle of the night? My house is big, and I have a room for you to live in, as well as clean quilts."

"Grandma, I'm not picky about this, I just feel... a little embarrassed."

Du Qiuhua understood immediately, "You child, why are you thinking so much? Your grandfather and I are not stubborn. You don't live here, so why do you want to spend the New Year alone in the dormitory? You can't eat dumplings, and you haven't had a party yet. , how about that?"

The Shao family is in good condition, with a TV, and can watch the Spring Festival Gala at night.

"You just listen to grandma, stay at home, and enjoy the new year with peace of mind. Your grandpa and I, I wish you could stay, and besides, grandma will give you a big red envelope at night."

An Zixi smiled, this old lady, in order to keep her, even moved out the big red envelope.

Hearing people's persuasion and eating enough, An Zixi also thanked the elders for their love for her, so she simply agreed to stay.

This made Mr. Du so happy that he took out his family photo album and looked at the family photos with An Zixi.

What surprised An Zixi was that when Mr. Du and Mr. Shao were young, they were actually the children of rich families. People in that era couldn't eat enough, so how could they have the money to take pictures.
