Fugui's father, grandparents, and uncles are all gathered around the kitchen to make dumplings.

Shen Su'e and her second son had the most beautiful wrappings. According to her husband, they could be used to set up stalls in the market.

"Wu Chaozi, what are you bagging? The stuffing is leaking out," Jiang Qingshan said with disgust, "You'd better go out, don't waste food."

"Oh, it's my first time making dumplings," Wu Chaozi said while making amends, "Besides, what's the waste? I made it myself and ate it myself."

His mother smiled and said: "I can't blame him. When was the last time I ate dumplings? I can't even remember. It was seven or eight years ago? How old was Chaozi at that time? He didn't even learn However, it’s normal if you don’t know how to pack.”

Youniang spoke for him, and Wu Chaozi straightened his back, "That's right, if I were as old as the second brother, the dumplings I made would definitely be better than him!"

Erhuazi smiled, but didn't answer, and continued to wrap the dumplings in his hand.

Seeing that he ignored him, his fifth brother said deliberately: "Hey, second brother, you are quite good at eating and drinking. I know that our family eats a lot this year, so I came here to help. Mom will cook the dumplings later." Well, I won’t do without giving you two.”

After finishing speaking, he bumped his fourth brother with his elbow, "Tell me, fourth brother, is second brother really thick-skinned? Why didn't I see it before?"

"Chaozi, do you have a big opinion on me?"

Er Huazi picked up the meat stuffing with chopsticks and put it into the dumpling wrapper, "My parents haven't said anything yet, so you're chattering a lot, isn't it annoying?"

"Father and mother are embarrassed to kick you out. After all, it's the New Year's Eve. It's too ugly to make people laugh. Who knew you were so shameless? You brought your son over to eat dumplings when you were separated. Why don't you just throw you away?" It’s fine to bring the daughter-in-law together, after all, the second sister-in-law is as thick-skinned as you.” Wu Chaozi mocked.

In the awkward atmosphere, San Leizi pushed him, "Okay, just say a few words, why do you keep talking? The second brother is also here to help."

"Our family has food, and he came to help. If our family is drinking northwest wind, do you think he will come to help? I'm afraid he can run faster than a rabbit."

After Wu Chaozi sneered, he thought his second brother would lose his temper and leave, but unexpectedly he nodded, "Indeed, what Chaozi said is right, if there is no food at home, I might take it with me after the New Year greetings." Wealth is gone."

"Listen! Father, mother, have you all heard what he said?"

Er Huazi put the wrapped dumplings on a dustpan covered with a layer of dry flour, "Chaozi, to be honest, I also want to follow behind my parents like you. Now that I'm a father, I can't help it...

If I'm the only one in the family, I can eat wild vegetables or rice bran, but my wife and children want to eat something good, so I have to find a way, right? "

Shen Su'e, who had been silent before, said, "You are the head of the family now. It's right to think about your wife and children, but since the family has been separated, it's impossible for me to feed you with my own food."

"Of course!" Erhuazi said sincerely, "I'm here to ask my mother if you would like to sell me some fatty meat, just one or two taels, as long as Fugui and his mother can eat some fat to satisfy their hunger. "

Shen Su'e pointed to the enamel basin, "All my fat meat has been fried into lard. If you really want to buy it, you can buy it at the price of the supply and marketing cooperative. I'm two cents."

"Mother, you are too cheap for him!" Wu Chaozi said angrily, "The lard in the supply and marketing cooperative has to be bought with lard tickets, which is more expensive than ordinary oil tickets! No, I don't agree, unless he takes Half a catty of fuel tickets in exchange."

Er Huazi asked subconsciously: "Where can I get you a fuel ticket?"

The production team issues invoices to each company at the end of each year, including cloth tickets, thread tickets, cigarette tickets, match tickets, sugar stamping tickets, white sugar tickets, brown sugar tickets, wine tickets and kerosene tickets.

As for meat tickets, egg tickets, fish tickets, vegetable tickets, bean product tickets, fruit tickets and oil tickets, these are exclusive tickets for urbanites, and rural people don’t have any. If they want to grow or raise their own food, they are self-sufficient. self-sufficient.

Last year, Captain Li encouraged each family to raise a pig and two chickens. It is best to grow some sesame seeds in the yard and squeeze sesame oil to eat.

The Jiang family bought piglets and chickens, but because there was not enough food to feed them, the pigs were not fat enough, so they sold them to the production team, and the chickens froze to death just after winter. She didn't take care of it.

Sesame seeds cannot be grown in Baihe Village, the germination rate is low, and it is not easy to keep seedlings. No family in the village has successfully grown sesame seeds.

I have not eaten oil and water for a long time. No matter adults or children, I often go to the hut for several days. I really want to eat some oil to moisten my intestines in my dreams.

Seeing that the fifth brother wanted to quarrel with his second brother again, Jiang Qingshan said: "Okay, don't talk about it, Chaozi, since your mother agreed to sell your second brother two spoonfuls of oil, it means that it is for wealth and wealth, and it's not a free gift. Twenty cents is not a lot."

While they were talking, Fugui, who couldn't find the Lingbao, ran into the kitchen, "Daddy, Daddy, Auntie is gone, I finished eating the pen, it's gone, Auntie..."

"What?" The crowd looked back at Fugui.

"Who's missing?" Shen Su'e panicked, "Lingbao?"

The little boy nodded, "Yes, my aunt gave me a pen. After I finished, I wanted to ask her for another one. She disappeared. I searched and searched, but I couldn't find it."

Saying so, he ran to his father, hugged his leg and said, "Daddy, go and find my aunt, I want to play with my aunt, it's delicious to play with my aunt, it's a good job to write!" ! It’s better than Rourou.”

"What are you doing?" Erhuazi was stunned, "No, Fugui, didn't you play with your little aunt in the room? Why didn't she disappear?"

"I just disappeared. I called 'Auntie' for a long time, but no one answered me."

Shen Su'e had already stepped out of the kitchen at this time, and ran into the house while calling "Lingbao", "Lingbao? Where are you, Lingbao?"

Entering the Lingbao room, she saw the bulging quilt, hurriedly walked over and lifted a corner of the quilt, and saw her daughter lying on the bed with her eyes closed, soundly asleep, and she finally relaxed a little.

She got up at four o'clock this morning and went to work in the kitchen. Lingbao followed her all the time, chatting with her, and it was normal for her to be sleepy.

Just as Shen Su'e thought of this, her sons ran into the house.

Wu Chaozi almost blurted out and asked, "Mother, Lingbao..."

"Hush!" Shen Su'e hastily turned her head and gestured, "Lingbao got up too early in the morning and fell asleep now, don't disturb her, let her sleep well."

After finishing speaking in a low voice, she covered Lingbao with a quilt and got up slowly. Just as she was about to leave the room, she found a large vat beside the wooden table in the corner.

Others also found the pickle vat at this moment, and Erhuazi asked his third brother in a low voice, "San Leizi, where did the vat come from? We didn't have such a big vat before, did we? Go to the town to buy it. came back?"
