Chapter 555 New Year's Eve Dinner

There are many people coming to the New Year's Eve dinner tonight.

The Lu family has six children and four children.

The Han family consists of three adults and one child.

The Hu family consists of four adults and one child.

The Wang family has more people, seven adults.

There are twenty adults and six children in the family.

Still divided into three tables.

There are nine men at the table.

A table of eleven women.

Six children sat alone at a table.

In the past, when the children were young, they could just sit on the small kang table in the West Room.

Not anymore.

A round table was also arranged for them.

The Lu family’s living room was packed to the brim.

The biggest difference between this year's menu and previous years is the increased amount of seafood.

Steamed king crabs, three were steamed directly, one for each table.

Braised abalone.

The abalone in this dish is shelled, and the abalone meat is directly braised in brown sauce.

Boil shrimps in white water.

Each one is as long as a chopstick.

I don’t know if it’s a lobster, but it’s pretty big anyway.

Cold sea cucumber.

Thumb thickness, from Dalian.

As for chicken, duck, fish, meat and goose, they are already home-cooked dishes.

Now it is green vegetables that attract people.

Hot and sour potato shreds.

Lotus root slices marinated in pepper oil.

There is no lotus root in the Northeast. This thing is from the South.

Rare for Northeasterners.

Braised vegetables in oil.

Made of oyster sauce, the color looks good.

The biggest feature of Chinese New Year dishes is that they are rich in oil.

In the past, every family was poor, and cooking and cooking were very heavy.

Lu Changhua remembers that when he was a child, he ate lard with noodles.

Just for a taste.

Even now, 2000 years later, this problem has not changed.

I don’t even put oil on my meals.

This is the main reason why the fried vegetables in the restaurant are more fragrant than the fried vegetables at home.

They pump the gas even harder.

Three tables were set up, and delicacies were served one after another.

The card players in the living room were not playing either.

They all pushed away the mahjong tiles in front of them, got up and washed their hands.

Han Ying brought the washbasin, which was steaming with steam.

"Uncles and uncles, let's have dinner together."

"I'm coming."

Old Hutou was the first to run over and wash his hands.

Han Jianhua pulled Lao Lu and said there was something wrong with the way he played just now.

Wang Dejiang listened with a smile on his face, chiming in a word or two from time to time.

Mr. Mediterranean is really happy.

Lao Lu just replaced him.

He went to the toilet, but Lao Lu wouldn't let him go when he came back.

He has been sitting behind Lao Lu, gesticulating.

Now I am still arguing with Han Jianhua.

It was dark outside at five o'clock.

The New Year's Eve dinner is about to begin.

The children who were setting off firecrackers in the dark outside were also called back by Mother Lu.

Wang Yao patted the snow off her son Sheng Yu.

"Where have you gone? You're covered in snow."

She was nagging about her son, but her eyes were focused on her daughter.

"Mom, we are right at the door, we haven't gone far."

Seeing that her mother was blaming her, Nuomi quickly explained.

"Then what happened to the snow on my brother's body? Did he fall?"

"Well, we were running in front, and he ran with us, and he accidentally fell down."

Nuomi felt wronged.

Why should I blame myself when my brother fell?

"When you go out to play in the future, you have to take care of your brother, he is young."

Lu Changhua came over and said something.

Then he said: "Okay, I'll wash my hands and eat later."

Wait until all the adults wash their hands one by one.

Just change the water and wash the children's hands.

The adults are all seated.

The children also rushed up and sat in their special seats.

In the past few years, Hu Dagui has basically taken over the job of moving wine.

Lu's family went to the west room to worship their ancestors, so he took advantage of the time to go to the warehouse and brought in a case of wine.

This is the wine that Lu Changhua keeps at home, not a gift from his eldest brother.

When Lao Lu and the Lu family came out of the West Room, everyone gave up their seats again.

"Dagui, pour some wine."

"okay."

At a banquet, the person who holds the bottle of wine has the most say.

Originally, in the Lu family, it was supposed that the Lu family had control over the wine.

However, over the years, everyone has become accustomed to eating and drinking at Lu's house, and they regard it as their own home.

What's more, Hu Dagui only comes back once a year, so it's okay to make him look majestic.

Save this kid from always feeling like he's not at home and suffer a loss.

Hu Dagui was busy pouring wine for everyone.

Wu Yue was also at the women's table.

Wang Yao took Han Ying and talked to her intimately.

The other old ladies also chatted with each other briefly.

"Mmmm!"

Seeing that the wine was full, Lao Lu coughed lightly.

The head of the family speaks, and the gods are silent.

"Well, it's the year 2000, ah. They say it's the millennium, and they say this year's Spring Festival is special."

"But, I don't have any special feeling."

Old Lu paused.

"We have been together for many years. We are all good friends and good neighbors. In this life, I am quite content!"

"The two children have now blossomed and have their own things to do."

"As for me, I can take care of myself at home and take care of my children. It's pretty good."

Everyone nodded and agreed.

Pretty much the same these days.

The old men were all smiling.The old lady at the next table also listened.

"Don't say too much, I hope that in the coming year, our life will be better and better."

As soon as Lao Lu raised his glass, Hu Dagui started cheering!

"Look at my Uncle Lu's level. He is getting better and better every year. Dad, you should also learn from it."

The old bearded man chuckled.

"Then, if your Uncle Lu is not good enough, can you raise two good sons? I see, you have to study hard."

Hu Dagui was teased by his father.

Also follow Heheyile.

It would be strange if these two fathers were not biologically related!

After drinking this glass of wine, Lao Lu said to Han Jianhua next to him, "Brother Han, can you say a few words?"

"Tell me a few words?"

"Say something!"

Han Jianhua also coughed and started speaking.

"This, this, comrades..."

Before he finished speaking, the table next door burst into laughter.

Aunt Han rolled her eyes at her husband impatiently.

"Damn old man, you have been retired for so many years, and you still have comrades!"

"Hahaha, dad, you are not a big cadre, and you have a lot of official accent."

"Ha ha ha, hee hee."

There was constant laughter at the women's table.

Many people at the man's table couldn't help but smile.

Han Ying is right.

At the men's table, Uncle San has the highest rank.

Last year he was promoted to deputy director of the Heilongjiang Province Agricultural Reclamation Bureau.

He is considered a deputy provincial cadre.

There are rumors that his job may be relocated.

Lu Changhua heard this from his sister-in-law, but he didn't dare to ask for details.

There is also a side hall on the table.

It was Lu Changzhong.

County-level cities are not counties.

The county level is the highest level, so he was promoted half a level.

Speaking of which, Lu Changhua still manages 10,000+ people, although he has no level.

None of these three people is older than Han Jianhua.

"Uh……"

Seeing everyone laughing at him, Han Jianhua blushed, and then he remembered that it was really hard to change his problem.

"Cough cough."

He suppressed his embarrassment and continued: "Then I'll pay attention."

"We, young and old, have been together for decades. Look at how old the third generation is. To use a simple word, I am very happy. To use a human word, I am happy!"

"Today is New Year's Eve. The children are all back after the Chinese New Year. We old guys are also in good health. My wish for next year is that there will be another year!"

"it is good!"

"Uncle Han's level is so high!"

Hu Dagui and Lu Changhua are all scoundrels.

Everyone speaks one by one.

No matter who you are or what your age is, let’s talk about your New Year’s resolutions.

Everyone said what they focused on.

Like Lao Hutou, he mainly wants Hu Le to study well and not be like his father.

The family is in good health.

Uncle Mediterranean, his wish is to live happily without worries for the rest of his life.

The old man, Wang Dejiang, has many wishes.

I hope that my daughter and son-in-law will live in harmony and the family will be reunited.

The children are making progress in their studies, and both families are healthy and happy.

The third uncle doesn't have many wishes. He just wants his daughter to be happy and doesn't ask for anything else.

You see, high-ranking officials are still open-minded.

Lu Changzhong's wish is for family harmony and happiness and for his work to go smoothly.

In the past two days, he asked his third uncle for advice on how to be an official and his experience in politics.

Third uncle Wang Dehe didn't hold anything back either, and accepted everything that should be said and what shouldn't be said.

In fact, to put it bluntly, in one sentence, for an official to look at the result, for a good official to look at both the result and the process.

With just one sentence, the Lu Chang Center suddenly became bright.

As for Lu Changhua, his wish is simple.

That means everyone is healthy and happy.

As for the rest, he doesn’t ask for it.

Hu Dagui's wish is the most practical.

He just wants to make money, buy a house in the capital, let his children go to a good school, and provide for his parents.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone praised him. They didn't realize that this boy was still a filial son!
"Isn't that good? I am a filial son!"

Hu Dagui's neck stiffened, and the wine in his glass became stuffy.

After the men finished speaking, the women did not show weakness.

"We also have wishes, starting from mom's side."

Wang Yao, Wang Lu, Zhao Yan, Wu Yue, and Han Ying all started to agitate.

All the old ladies unanimously recommended Mother Lu to speak first.

The old lady smoothed her hair that Wang Yao had dyed black for her yesterday.

"What do you want me to say? I won't say it."

"Mom, just say whatever you think."

Lu Changhua encouraged from the next door.

"Yes, Mom, don't worry."

Lu Changzhong also said.

"Then, I just said nonsense."

Mother Lu looked at everyone in the room and said, "I just hope that everyone is well and that the children are well and that they are not sick or in trouble. That's all."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Yao hugged her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, don't worry, we are all fine."

"Ah."

Seeing that her daughter and the old woman were getting along so harmoniously, Mother Wang felt relieved and kept watching with a smile.

"Mom, what about you? You have to say a few words too!"

Wu Yue saw that what Lu's mother said was very good, so she also asked her mother-in-law to talk about it.

Aunt Hu smiled and said: "As long as you are good to Dagui and the child, we have no other wishes. I am the same as the elder sister."

Seeing that both families had spoken, Han Ying also said to her mother: "Mom, you can also say a few words."

"What did I say? Your dad said everything that needs to be said."

When everyone heard this, they laughed again.

"Mom, why don't you say a few words?"

Wang Yao looked at her mother and said.

"Hey, I just wish you well, that's all."

"That's not good. As mothers, what other wishes can we have? We just want our children to be well."

The third aunt also followed suit.

"Auntie, why don't you say a few words?"

Wang Yao looked at Mrs. Qian.

Mrs. Qian is not polite.

"I just hope to officially register with Lao Wang next year, and I don't have any other ideas."

As soon as the old lady finished speaking, everyone looked at Mr. Mediterranean.

Wang Dehai had no reaction.
