Chapter 187 New Years
"It's all right." Xu Dongming finally replied.

Wang Sijing is funny, anything is fine, then I'll make you twenty and I'll see if you can finish it.

"Then I'll make twelve for you. This year's zodiac sign of the pig has a good meaning of reincarnation. You have to finish it." Wang Sijing raised her head and said with a smile.

"En." Xu Dongming replied.

After washing her hands, Wang Sijing went to work in the kitchen.

The materials were all prepared before, and they were not complicated, and soon one by one, the ingots were put into the pot by her.

A total of sixteen were made, Xu Dongming made twelve, she and Mengmeng made two.

In fact, she thinks it would be nice if the cute kid can finish one by himself.

Stirring the large ingots in the pot, Wang Sijing thought melancholy.

She couldn't control it for a while, the ingots she made were much bigger than the ones she made before, she was a little choked when she thought that she would eat two, she wondered if she could give it to Xu Dongming when she couldn't finish it.

I heard that there are many jugglers, lion dancers and dragon dancers at the threshing ground today, and those who buy all kinds of snacks are coming. Sure enough, even if there is a strict crackdown on the Chinese New Year, they should relax a little bit.

When I get hungry after playing, I go to have a good meal. Although modern times say that snacks and barbecue are junk food, it is not very enjoyable to eat. I still feel a little panic every time I eat it for half a year.

Wang Sijing thought while resting her chin.

"Okay, okay, let's worship the ancestors first, and then we can eat." Wang Sijing said happily as she put the last bowl of ingots on the table.

"Yeah." Mengmeng's big eyes were fixed on the big bowl on the table, which was full of longing.

"Why do you want to eat so much, then you will have to finish your own bowl later." Wang Sijing teased the girl.

"Mengmeng will finish eating." Mengmeng said with big watery eyes.

"Crackling"

"Crackling"

"Crackling"

At the same time, there was a burst of firecrackers in the yard outside, and the quiet courtyard instantly became lively.

"Oh, look at my memory, Dong Ming, go quickly and take away the firecrackers from our house."

Wang Sijing slapped her forehead and finally remembered the custom of setting off firecrackers at twelve o'clock in the night vigil, and setting off firecrackers in the morning when she got up and had breakfast.

The less and less festive atmosphere in later generations has made many of her ancient customs about the festival gradually blurred, and no one will tell her these things when she comes here. Do people say how to hold chopsticks?

But he couldn't remember it, could it be that Xu Dongming couldn't remember it or remembered it but deliberately didn't remind himself.

Thinking of this possibility, Wang Sijing glared at Xu Dongming angrily.

Xu Dongming was puzzled by the innocent stares, so he continued to cover his daughter's ears with his hands in case she would be frightened by the sound of firecrackers outside.

"Forget it, I'll go, your eyes are still not good, what if you are stimulated by light, I didn't notice last night." Seeing Xu Dongming who was covering her daughter's ears, Wang Sijing was even more annoyed, she didn't notice, Really careless.

"Don't be afraid, Mengmeng. Firecrackers are set off outside. This is just a ritual of the festival, which symbolizes saying goodbye to the old and ushering in the new. It's the same as your dog brother setting off fireworks last night. Don't be afraid if it's not scary."

Before going out, Wang Sijing knelt down to comfort her daughter.

It is indeed easy for children to be frightened by such a loud voice suddenly, and it is frightened in the old people's mouth.

Wang Sijing hugged her daughter and patted her back to coax her.

"You cover Mengmeng's ears, and I'll set them off." It's impossible for Xu Dongming to really ask his wife to set off firecrackers, this is a man's task in the first place.

Saying that, she let go of her hands covering Mengmeng's ears, turned around and went out with the firecrackers she bought earlier.

"Hey your eyes—"

Before Wang Sijing finished speaking, Xu Dongming had already stepped out of the house, and he couldn't help pursing his lips.

The speed of his hands was dissatisfied, and he quickly covered his daughter's ears.

"Mengmeng is not afraid." Mengmeng said in a small voice while her mother took over from her father to cover her ears.

She was really not afraid, and she didn't think there was anything to be afraid of.

In the past, when grandma came to trouble her mother, her voice was louder than the sound of firecrackers. She was scared and cried at first, but later she found it was useless, so Mengmeng became quiet.

I am afraid, crying will only make my mother more annoying, she doesn't want this.

"Yeah, we Mengmeng are very strong." Wang Sijing coaxed the child, but the movements of her hands did not change at all, and she even worked harder when the "cracking" firecrackers sounded.

At the same time, she raised her head to face the sun and looked out of the house. She didn't know whether the sun was too bright to dazzle her eyes or the dust raised by the explosion of firecrackers blurred her vision. In the end, only a tall and blurred figure entered Wang Sijing's eyes.

But she knew that it was her husband, the man she would spend the rest of her life with.

"Candied haws, candied haws, big, red, sweet and sour candied haws—"

"Mutton skewers, delicious lamb skewers—"

"My lady, I want to eat lamb skewers, I want to eat lamb skewers!"

"Grandma, grandma, I want candied haws, I want candied haws, and kites—"

"I want to see the lion, I want to see the lion, I won't go, I won't go, I won't go, wow wow-!"

The cries of the peddler, the sound of children acting coquettishly, and the cries of grievance rushed into the eardrums, and Wang Sijing quickly covered the ears of her daughter who was held in her husband's arms.

"If Mengmeng wants anything, tell her mother that you are not allowed to cry like my little brother." At the same time, she talked with her daughter in a good voice.

She was really afraid that her precious daughter would also cry because of the cries of other children, that was really too bad.

"Mengmeng doesn't cry." Mengmeng shook her head as she looked at her little brother who was crying because he couldn't get the kite and candied haws and sat down on the ground and rolled around.

Mengmeng is a good boy, so she won't be like that little brother.The new clothes were all stained.

"You unlucky child, get up quickly, your new clothes are all stained by you, why did I give birth to you as a debt collector." The woman's shrill voice sounded embarrassing.

"I want a lion, a lion, a lion——wah——" The reason why the bear boy is a bear is that he can't listen to anything when he is agitated, and he can't see any faces clearly just like a bear.

Wang Sijing looked at the livid young woman who was angry and dragged Xu Dongming to the side, turning a corner and walking away silently.

A mother-child battle is about to happen, so hurry up and go far away. You can't join in the excitement, or you will be deafened by the crying of the bear children.

Thinking about it, Wang Sijing quickly took her husband and went to the juggler's area.

It is also very lively here, the wonderful performances of jugglers attracted everyone's applause, although it is noisy, but it is full of joy, compared with the noise of the bear children, it is a world of heaven and earth.

The family of three found a good place to stand and watched the juggling with relish. Among them, Mengmeng watched the most seriously, with a pair of big eyes wide open, and Wang Sijing who slapped Wang Sijing at the exciting place was all for her pain.
