When Zheng Jia woke up early in the morning, he heard someone talking outside the house and picked up his watch to look at it.

"Surprisingly, it's already ten o'clock?" Instead of going out to work today, Zhou Yi and I had a good workout in the evening.

Today I thought that if I got up late, I wouldn't go past 08:30, but I woke up at ten o'clock.

Touching the edge, the bed was already cold. It seemed that someone must have gotten up very early.

Hey, Zheng Jia really doesn’t know what to do. She is expected to be the last to get up among the whole family.

But it doesn't work if you don't get up. It's almost noon. Forget it, people will laugh at you anyway.

Zheng Jia got up quickly, put on her clothes, and went next door to wash up quickly.

"Hello grandma, hello uncle and aunt, hello mom and dad." Zheng Jia was really embarrassed. She was the last one in the whole family to get up.

They should have all eaten and started cooking for the New Year's Eve dinner.

"Get up." Li Xia put down the ingredients in her hands, "There is breakfast in the kitchen."

How dare Zheng Jia ask Li Xia to help her go to the kitchen to make breakfast? She really doesn't have such a big face.

"Mom, I can go there myself." After scanning the circle, I found that I didn't see Zhou Yi or the other three.

It's not New Year's Eve, so the three of them are still reading in the study. If that's the case, it's really too busy.

Mrs. Li discovered that Zheng Jia was looking for someone, "Xiaohao heard someone setting off firecrackers just now and was making a fuss about setting off firecrackers."

"Zhou Yi took them out to see where they could buy firecrackers." Li Wangshi explained where they were going.

Go buy firecrackers, "Okay, the Chinese New Year is about being lively."

In the past, because we advocated a revolutionary New Year celebration, even if it was not so strict later, we could still take a day or two off during the Spring Festival, but setting off firecrackers was not allowed.

If we can set off firecrackers now, it's a good thing. The Chinese New Year should be lively.

Mrs. Li couldn't help but nod, "That's it. It's really too quiet if we don't set off firecrackers during the New Year."

"When we were in the west, there was nowhere to celebrate the New Year but not the Chinese New Year. It was only later on New Year's Eve when dumplings were served in the cafeteria that we realized it was Chinese New Year."

Li Xia thought of their days in the west, "Although the supply of supplies was insufficient, at least it was quiet."

After returning to the capital, I learned that some of the people I had dealt with before were no longer alive, or had suffered a great blow.

Their days in the west seemed so peaceful.

Li Wang knew that Li Xia's life in the west could not be said to be easy, but she never expected that they would live like this.

Zheng Jia ate breakfast quickly. After washing the breakfast bowl, he helped choose vegetables.

While working, I listened to Li Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussing today's menu. Zheng Jia's cooking skills were good, but neither Li Wang nor Xie Jingjuan had the idea of ​​letting her cook.

In the past, I was thinking that after all, living in the Zheng family's house, how could I let her work? Now, I am thinking that in the future, she will be the one holding the scalpel, let alone the kitchen.

Li Xia is not good at cooking. She didn't eat in the canteen before. When she was at home, the couple either went to restaurants to improve their food or cooked noodles at home.

Mrs. Li knew Li Xia's cooking skills, but she didn't dare to let her work, otherwise what would happen if she got injured or good ingredients were wasted.

Just when they had finished processing the ingredients, Li Xu and Zhou Tao had already set up the chess board, and they were drinking tea and playing chess. Only then did Li Dan realize that Zhou Yi and the others hadn't come back yet.

"Where are they going?" Li Dan actually wanted to follow, but Li Hao and the others declined.

The reason is also very straightforward. I am worried that he will stop me and will not allow me to buy anything.After Li Dan heard this, he really felt heartbroken. He took Li Hao and others to buy firecrackers when he was a child, and they were not allowed to buy too many firecrackers. He still remembers it to this day.

At that time, the family of three relied on Li Xu's income and the money mailed by their aunt. In order not to be conspicuous, they did not dare to spend it randomly even though they had money, for fear of causing trouble.

As a result, this brat still remembers it firmly, so why doesn't he think about the good things he did to him back then?

Li Xu now regrets that he shouldn't have followed Li Hao out to vent his anger, otherwise he wouldn't have waited at home.

"There are not many firecrackers selling here in the capital." Li Xu didn't see any firecrackers for sale anyway, and he didn't hear his colleagues mention it.

"It's okay. They must have gone far away in their car."

"Xiao Yi is wearing a watch. If he sees that it's late, he will definitely drive back." Zhou Tao knew that Zhou Yi was not a careless person.

Rao had confidence in Zhou Yi, but when the time came to 12 o'clock, even Zhou Tao, who was the calmest, became uneasy.

But in such a huge capital, they didn't know where to look, but the Li Wang family was in a hurry.

Just when everyone was running around anxiously, they finally heard the sound of a car outside.

Li Dan rushed out quickly and saw Zhou Yi and the three of them getting out of the car with smiles on their faces.

"Where are you going..." Li Dan was ready to question him, but after he was released, he didn't know how to come back. It was really too much. I wonder if everyone would be anxious?

"Brother, we bought a sheep and a lamb, which is just right for drinking mutton soup and cooking mutton meat."

Li Hao no longer thought about the firecrackers along the way, and all he could think about was how to eat the mutton.

Li Hao, who only thought about mutton, didn't notice Li Dan's ugly face at all.

Zheng Jia followed and ran out. He saw Li Hao kept talking about how to arrange the mutton. Looking at Li Dan, he was already getting lucky. He was really a big brother who didn't have an easy time.

Li Wangshi and the others were slow, and when they chased them out, they heard Li Hao keep talking about mutton.

"Did you buy the lamb?" Xie Jingjuan knew that she was going to have hot pot tonight, so she always wanted to buy beef and mutton, but she never found any.

Unexpectedly, a few children went out to buy firecrackers and actually bought a lamb. "Boss, get the lamb in and start processing it."

Whether you are boiling mutton or making mutton soup, you have to start preparing.

Well, I have already spoken. What else can Li Dan do? He can't confront the old lady.

Li Dan picked up the lamb and moved it into the kitchen. Li Haotou gave Zhou Yi a look, and he knew that if he took action, the matter would be settled.

Zhou Yi saw the interaction between the two and knew that they should have known it too late, so he discussed how to handle the matter.

"Don't do this next time." After Li Dan entered the house, Li Wang patted Zhou Yi and Li Hao several times, "Your elder brother also cares about you."

Of course Li Hao knew, "Nai, don't worry, I will apologize to my brother later."

Zhou Yi explained simply, "We searched around and found someone selling firecrackers, but there weren't many goods there, and they were almost sold."

"Originally, the other party didn't want to make a trip, but then a few more people came, and the other party asked us to wait while he went to replenish the goods."

"While we were waiting, we heard someone nearby saying that there were lambs for sale in a nearby village."

"After we got the firecrackers, we bought a lamb and waited for the other party to slaughter the sheep."

It's not that they don't want to come back early, but they are delayed here and there. (End of chapter)
