New Year's Eve is the last day of the lunar year.

However, the people of southern Fujian do not call this day "New Year's Eve", but "Twenty-Nine Day". If there is thirty, it is called "Thirty-Twenty Day", and this day is also called the New Year. The "Twenty-Nine Day" of the 29th Day is pronounced as "Mei" (third tone), which means night, which means big.

On this day, people in southern Fujian will worship their ancestors first, then worship the land. After worshiping, take a shower, put on new clothes, and then the whole family will happily surround the fire. On this day, children are not allowed to beat them, and the children cry loudly and make noises all over the world, which is unlucky; they are not allowed to curse, and they are not allowed to break dishes, anyway, they are just to have the whole family happy and happy New Year.

It was getting darker, the gods had already worshipped, the food and ingredients on the table were prepared, the bath was washed, the clothes were fresh, and the soup was rolled on the stove.

Song Wen's family sat around the Eight Immortals table in the hall, full of chicken, duck, fish, meat and vegetables. On the induction cooker was placed, there was a hot pot made of old hens and wild game on one side, and a thick soup made of sea fish bones. There were nourishing and healthy medicinal materials on both sides. The soup was strong and the fragrance of medicinal materials and food was wafted out.

The smell was greedy, and the family started to move and ate it with thin sliced ​​fish, animal meat and tender vegetables.

The chickens and ducks are raised at home, and the meat is fresh and tender. The fish was delivered by Huang Xiaojun the day before yesterday and is very fresh.

Huang Xiaojun sent a lot of fish, even lobster, abalone, sea cucumber, etc., almost half a car. The day before yesterday, Zeng Xinyong even brought a cart of things, including fruits, dried fruits, seafood, and river products. Song Wen didn't want to take it because he felt that the two didn't have such a big relationship, but Zeng Xinyong felt that he saved his family's life, and took it to his house with his kindness and sent it to him.

Without any help, Song Wen had to accept it, but he also took a bunch of things from home and gave it back to him. It was so far and wide that he wouldn't feel embarrassed to eat it.

The fish on the table were all sent by Huang Xiaojun. Song Wen put the big lobster slices into thin slices on the plate, just pick them up and blanch them in a hot pot, and dip them in a sauce made of soy sauce, vinegar and garlic, and it will be very delicious. You can also eat them raw. You might as well dip them in some mustard when eating them raw. The pungent and pungent taste is mixed with the fresh sweetness of the lobster, creating an indescribable taste. How can you say a word of praise?

In addition to lobsters, there are also tuna, tuna, and tuna is also cut into thin slices. However, there are some tricks when scalding tuna. When the tuna meat is in the hot pot, it must be pulled up immediately. It cannot be scalded for too long. It will lose its fresh flavor if it is not scalded for too long, and it will feel too raw. After scalding, the tuna meat is both raw and cooked, and the heat will bring out the fresh sweetness of the tuna meat. It tastes a little vigorous. After chewing it, the mouth is full of the unique taste of tuna. If you can roll a little fresh green vegetables and animal meat and eat it together, the taste will be amazing.

However, the little brat Xixi doesn't like eating fish, and likes to eat white jade snail slices cut by his uncle Song Wen, so he doesn't even care about other dishes.

Huang Xiaojun's family.

Huang Xiaojun's house is a three-and-a-half-story building. The decoration inside is not magnificent, but it looks elegant and generous, with an ancient style.

On the wall in the middle of the hall, there is a picture of blessings and longevity. On the left is a couplet that says "The sky increases the years and people grow longevity, and spring fills the world and the world fills the blessings of the hall." Below is a table enshrined in the gods.

Because my grandfather was still in the hall, Huang Xiaojun and his family had always surrounded the fire with Huang Guoliang and others. The hall was filled with old and young, and a few children were clamoring, which was very lively.

"Grandpa, this is white jade snail meat, it's delicious, you can try it." Huang Xiaojun picked up a piece of crystal clear white jade snail meat, dipped it in the sauce, and placed it in front of his grandfather.

Although Huang Yisheng is over 70 years old, his face is still rosy, his head is black, his eyes are bright and energetic, and he is not old at all.

Looking at the things his granddaughter came over to filially, he smiled and picked them up and ate them. As soon as the white jade snail meat was put into the mouth, it felt refreshing and tender. After chewing it carefully, it felt like it was a bit sweeter, which was much better than the sea fish and meat on the table.

"Well, it's delicious. This white jade snail is good. You can try it." Huang Yisheng pointed to the meat of the white jade snail and said.

The people next to him heard this and ate it. They felt it was really delicious and nodded repeatedly.

"Xiaojun, where did you buy this? Why haven't I seen it before?" Huang Guoliang asked while eating.

"It was not bought, it was given by Song Wen."

"Song Wen? Why didn't I get me any of this kid when I went to his house last time? I must exploit it next time I go."

"Uncle, you didn't say it, of course I won't give it to you. Besides, I helped you cure the tree, but you didn't thank them well, and you still have the nerve to take other people's things?" Huang Xiaojun said angrily.

"Who said no, I sent a lot of things over."

Huang Guoliang said, thinking about it, he felt something was wrong, why didn’t she help her uncle, but instead helped outsiders, and couldn’t help saying, “Xiaojun, don’t you just bend your elbow out before you get married, okay? It’s a good thing that uncle loves you so much.”

"Uncle, what are you talking about? Where are you?" Huang Xiaojun said in shame.

"What's going on?"

Huang Yisheng asked curiously as he listened to the two of them.

"That's right. That Song Wen was the one who gave the wild boar belly to cure my elder brother's stomach disease last time. He didn't expect that he would treat the tree. Last time, my old osmanthus bonsai asked him to help cure it, so that it could be sold for 500,000 yuan. Otherwise, I would probably not even be able to sell it for a fraction of it." Huang Guoliang explained.

"Then I have to thank him very well." Huang Yisheng said.

"Yes! I sent a lot of female squids, scallops, and sea dragons over, and those are all good things."

"There are all stinky fish and rotten shrimps, which are worth a few hundred yuan. You can take advantage of it. I will be ashamed of you." Huang Xiaojun said disdainfully.

"Who said it's thousands of times." Huang Guoliang jumped into pieces and said in anger by Xiaojun.

Huang Yisheng could see that his granddaughter fell in love with him, otherwise he would not have had such a big reaction. Fortunately, he was always worried that she would not be able to get married, so it seems that he doesn't have to worry anymore.

Touching a few beards on his chin, he laughed a few times, and said, "I have made a lot of money for Guoliang. We should thank them well. Let's do this. Xiaojun will make an appointment to invite him to the house for dinner another day, so don't let others say we don't know etiquette."

Jiang is still old, but in name it is thanking others. In fact, I want to see how this person has the potential to become a future grandson-in-law. I am just such a granddaughter, so I can't let her marry an unscrupulous man.

"Ah, no need! Why are you invited to dinner? Besides, he is very busy after the Chinese New Year. He is going to prepare to open a store, and I'm afraid he won't have time to come." Huang Xiaojun quickly shunned. The two were still in the observation stage of their boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, but they were not yet at the point of inviting them to visit.

"What store is open?" Huang Guoliang heard it from the side and asked curiously.

"It's the hotel!"

Huang Xiaojun said, seeing everyone asking, he hurriedly said, "Eat vegetables quickly, eat vegetables, these are something I finally brought back. They are so delicious. For example, this Qingming dish and wild mustard greens can't be bought on the market."

The adults in the hall were not thiefs, so they didn't know that she was changing the topic. Seeing her embarrassed look, she couldn't help but laugh happily.
