The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 302, more and more hopeful
Sha Zhu's dishes were prepared very quickly, and he finished the six dishes and one soup in more than an hour.

Braised rabbit meat, spicy diced rabbit, steamed silver carp, stewed pork vermicelli, hot and sour Chinese cabbage, fried peanuts, seaweed tofu soup, and the staple food is white flour steamed buns and cabbage dumplings.

As soon as the hot dishes come out of the pan, the whole room is filled with fragrance, making people salivate.

"Oh, it's really too extravagant." Peng Feiyan looked at the dishes on the table, her heart trembled with distress.

Not long after she married, it was the first time she celebrated the New Year in the courtyard, although Shazhu and Yushui had told her before that the two families celebrated the New Year together, and the New Year's Eve dinner would be more sumptuous.

But I never thought that I could eat so much.

She would never dare to think of these dishes in rural areas. She was satisfied to have a meal of vegetarian dumplings during the Chinese New Year.

The dishes on this big table are basically meat dishes, and even the hot and sour cabbage and tofu soup have put a lot of oil and water.

The raw materials for this table cost about a dozen yuan, which was worth half a year's work points for her father in the production team, but it almost didn't hurt her badly.

Just these few dishes, I don’t know how much oil was put in them.

If Li Weiguo hadn't provided most of the ingredients and cooking oil, she wouldn't have dared to let Silly Zhu, a loser, take charge.

Li Weiguo smiled, and said with relief: "Sister-in-law, it's Chinese New Year, it's okay to be extravagant once, only once a year."

"That's right, that's the only time I look forward to a year, it doesn't matter."

Yu Shui nodded in agreement, and after finishing speaking, the little greedy cat stretched its neck and sucked heavily on the dishes on the table.

"Hmm~ It smells so good~"

Seeing her intoxicated appearance, Li Weiguo, Sha Zhu and others couldn't laugh or cry.

Silly Zhu patted her little head: "Okay, stop sucking, get ready to eat. Bring a bowl, share some vegetables, and I'll send one to the old lady."

"Ooh~"

Rain responded, and quickly brought him a sea bowl.

After taking the bowl, Shazhu gave the old lady some of each dish.

The old lady cared for him the most on weekdays, no matter whether the old lady stuttered or not, this kind of filial piety was inevitable, otherwise the whole hospital would gossip.

After loading a bowl of dishes, Shazhu took another bowl and scooped out a bowl of kelp and tofu soup, and then walked outside with it.

Next door, the West Wing, the Jia family.

Today's Jia's family is much more lively than usual. Apart from Jia Zhang's mother and son, Qin Huairu and Bang Jian, the elder brother, the first mother, and the old lady also lived with the Jia family.

At this time, the New Year's Eve dinner at Jia's side was ready, and the dishes were served on the table one after another.

Stewed cabbage with potatoes, stewed pork vermicelli, fried fungus with carrots, and another stewed chicken, the food looks pretty good too.

When queuing up this year, Jia Dongxu only bought two tins of canned meat, and he was not willing to buy too many. It was too expensive, so he only made a stewed meat dish with pork and vermicelli.

But the uncle was lucky and bought a little rooster, so the New Year's Eve dinner seemed to be quite sumptuous.

All the dishes are on the table, the heat is rising from the stove, and the staple food, cabbage dumplings, are tumbling in the cauldron, and they are ready to be cooked.

With a big belly, Qin Huairu scooped up a plate of dumplings for everyone present with a large spoon, and finally gave two extra sticks to BangGong, who was so happy that BangGeng clapped his hands again and again, and the table was full of joy.

Just when the Jia family and the first master were about to use their chopsticks to eat, Silly Zhu came over with dishes and soup. Without knocking, he shouted outside the door and pushed the door open.

"Yo, uncle, Brother Jia, have you eaten all of this?" Silly Zhu came in with something in both hands, and greeted him with a smile.

"Silly Zhu is here, have you eaten yet, let's sit down and eat something?"

When the uncle, Jia Dongxu, Qin Huairu and others saw him coming in, they all beckoned and asked him to sit down.

Silly Zhu smiled and waved his hands: "No, no, you eat your food, no need to say hello, I've prepared everything there, I'm here to add some food to the old lady."

"Hey, this is good, the old lady didn't hurt you for nothing, hahaha."

The old man and his wife nodded with a smile, and expressed their great appreciation to Sha Zhu, who is a man who can be made.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Sha Zhu put the vegetables and soup in front of the old lady, wished auspiciously, and said a few more auspicious words, which made the old lady laugh heartily.

At this moment, everyone is eating the New Year's Eve dinner, and it is not suitable for Silly Zhu to stay for a long time. After delivering the dishes, he chatted with the old lady, the uncle and others, and then left quickly.

But he didn't come in vain. Before he left, he got a big red envelope from the old lady, and the old man and the big mother also gave one.

After Shazhu left, the first mother looked at the big bowl of dishes and kelp tofu soup that Shazhu sent, and couldn't help admiring the uncle and the old lady:

"Hey, such a huge bowl, with both fish and meat, this idiot is really filial. It's not easy to get fresh meat this New Year's Eve."

The old lady and the uncle nodded with a smile, and the Jiazhang mother and son on the side also smiled and echoed a few words dryly.

However, Silly Zhu Zhuyu is in front, and Jia Zhang does not want her son to fall behind. After all, the purpose of calling the first uncle at the New Year's Eve dinner is to consolidate the relationship between the two families, in the hope that the first uncle can provide more support in the future, so that Jia Dongxu can complete his studies as soon as possible.

So Jia Zhang immediately took a bottle of Sanbai and handed it to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu, today is the [-]th. I will drink a few cups with your master. In the future, I must remember your master's goodness and be more filial and filial to your master." "

Jia Dongxu wasn't too stupid, he realized it quickly, took the bottle and filled a glass for the uncle and himself, then he picked up the glass and said sincerely:
"Master, I'd like to toast you and thank you for your cultivation. Don't worry, I will definitely honor you in the future. I'll do it, you can do whatever you want." After saying that, Jia Dongxu became bored after one gulp.

After listening to these words, the old man and the mother laughed from ear to ear. Isn't this what they have spent so many years cultivating?

Regardless of whether it can be done or not, the attitude is here to make people happy.

The old man was in high spirits, so he drank the wine in one gulp without saying anything.

After finishing the drink, the uncle patted Jia Dongxu on the shoulder with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "Dongxu, your skills have improved quite a bit. You can try to touch the skills of a fourth-level worker."

"You will learn from me next year, and I will try my best to get you some workpieces of level four workers to practice your hands. When the promotion assessment is at the end of the year, we will try to pass level four at once."

Jia Dongxu was overjoyed. If Yi Zhonghai didn't nod, he wouldn't be able to access the fourth-level technology and artifacts. Now he finally waited for this sentence.

"Hey, master, don't worry, I will learn from you with all my heart."

Jia Zhang and Qin Huai who were on the side couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard the old man's words. This fourth-level worker is a middle-level technician. Jia Dongxu is only 27 years old after the new year. If he can be promoted to a fourth-level worker at the age of 27, his future is really bright.

These days are really looking forward to more and more.

For a time, Jia and Zhang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were overjoyed, and they served the elder uncle with food and wine one after another, very attentively.

On Li Weiguo's side, after waiting for a few minutes, Silly Zhu, who had gone out to deliver food to the old lady, finally came back.

The girl Yu Yu couldn't wait any longer, so she quickly pulled out a stool for him and asked him to sit down: "Aiyou. Silly brother, it's really cool for you to bring a dish. We are all starving, so we are just waiting for you."

Silly Zhu smiled and said angrily: "I think you are starving, right?"

"It's all the same, I represent everyone." Yushui pursed her lips and argued.

"Hahaha" everyone laughed.

After teasing and laughing, Silly Zhu sat down, the bowls and chopsticks were arranged neatly, and everyone was ready to serve dinner.

However, according to the procedure, juniors like Li Weiguo and Shazhu had to pay New Year greetings to their elders before everyone could move their chopsticks.

With Li Weiguo leading the way, the Shazhu couple and Yushui were not pretentious, and respectfully paid respects to Mr. Wang for a new year.

Li Weiguo: "Master, Happy Chinese New Year, my disciples wish you peace and auspicious stars, good luck and good health every year."

Silly Zhu: "Master Wang, happy new year, I also wish you a lot of blessings and good luck in the new year."

Peng Feiyan: "Old man, I also wish you health, safety, and happiness."

Yuyu: "Master, then I wish you good health, everything you want will come true, and everything you eat will taste delicious."

After paying New Year greetings, Mr. Wang was also very happy. He waved to them and said, "Haha. Okay, okay, come on, it's Chinese New Year, and the old man will give you red envelopes."

As he said that, Mr. Wang took out some red envelopes prepared in advance from his pocket, and gave one to each of Li Weiguo and the others.

"Thank you, Master."

"Thank you, Master Wang."×3
After receiving the red envelopes, it was finally time for the exciting part of cooking, and everyone sat down without delay.

After the supply of meat and eggs was cut off in the past few months, it was rare for them to have such a sumptuous dinner. Their greed had been aroused for a long time, and they were already a little impatient.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Li Weiguo first took out a screwdriver and opened a bottle of 'Arctic Ocean' for everyone.

During the Chinese New Year, drinks are always indispensable.

Last year's 'Shanhaiguan', this year's 'Arctic Ocean', the same every year.

Speaking of Arctic Ocean soda, people in the 90s may not know it.

But for two or three generations from the 50s to the 80s, this little bottle of orange soda is definitely one of the deepest memories.

Since its launch in the 50s, Arctic Ocean has been quickly recognized by the market. Not only the common people like to drink it, but it has also been designated as a state banquet drink many times.

In this era of low prices and low income levels, the Arctic Ocean can create an output value of more than [-] million a year, with an annual profit of more than [-] million, which shows its popularity.

However, good reviews are good reviews, and this thing is really not cheap.

Thirty-five cents a bottle, and you can get two cents back if you return the empty bottle after drinking, which is actually fifteen cents a bottle.

Fifteen cents is almost a person's daily living expenses in this day and age. Many children can only go to the non-staple food store to watch while they are hungry, and they have saved up pocket money for a long time before they are willing to buy a bottle.

Each had a bottle of Arctic Ocean, the old man and Shazhu didn't have a cold for orange soda, only Yushui and Peng Feiyan liked it very much.

Picking up the soda and taking a sip, the two of them squinted their eyes happily in the next moment.

"Well~ delicious~"

"Hey, what's so good about soda, Weiguo, why don't we old men just be a little bit white?"

As soon as Sha Zhu, an alcoholic, saw the good food, he became addicted to alcohol. After two cups, he felt uncomfortable all over, feeling sorry for the good food on the table.

"Okay, there are white ones too." After saying that, Li Weiguo took out three bottles of Xifeng wine from under the table and put them on the table.

Opening the bottle cap, first filled a glass for the old man, and then filled Sha Zhu and himself.

Putting the bottle down, Li Weiguo suggested: "Master, today is New Year's Eve. How about you say a few words?"

"Hehe, okay, then I wish you all success in work, academic progress, and all the best in the new year. Come on, cheers, hahaha." Mr. Wang raised his glass to congratulate.

"Good! Cheers!"

Li Weiguo, Sha Zhu and others echoed and toasted.

After drinking the first glass of wine, when the old man moved his chopsticks first, Li Weiguo and others also moved their chopsticks one after another.
