The New Year’s Eve dinner at the Zhou family is very sumptuous.

Sauce elbow, chicken stewed mushrooms, pickled cabbage vermicelli, pork head meat, skin jelly, fried meat slices, croquettes, fried eggplant box, tofu rolls, cabbage rolls, pork trotters, braised pork ribs, wood bean meat, mixed with dried fungus tofu and mung bean sprouts.

There were exactly fourteen dishes, and the table was full of dishes, and some plates were stacked.

"Come on, come and sit down, hurry up, today is the New Year's Eve reunion dinner, and our family is having a lively New Year."

When Mr. Zhou saw that the food was all over the table, he invited his children and grandchildren to sit down and have a meal together.

The kang table was smaller, and the old couple led Zhou Tiantian and Yongxin, and four sons to sit on the kang to eat. The one on the ground stood a little bigger, and the sisters-in-law Xu led Zhou Yongping and his wife and other children at this table.

Everyone sat down, and the wine glasses in front of the old man, Zhou Anbang and others were filled with wine. The old man looked around and looked at the children and grandchildren in front of him, and was particularly happy.

"Today is New Year's Eve, and I've been very tired after working hard this year. I don't need to say anything today. I've eaten and drunk, so I can do whatever I'm happy.

Everyone is moving their chopsticks. This year's food is much better than in previous years. Try it quickly." The old man was really not saying too much fancy nonsense, he only invited everyone to have a meal.

When the old man spoke, everyone was no longer restrained, so they automatically picked up food with chopsticks.

Children must work hard to put their elbows on the meat, and they can eat it so satisfyingly. Zhou Tiantian likes to chew ribs and chew on it slowly after picking up pieces.

The old lady smiled as soon as she saw her granddaughter gnawing on ribs, "Why do you like to gnawing on ribs? This thing doesn't have much meat, so it's better to eat elbows."

He said this, but he kept moving. He grabbed several ribs and put them in the bowl in front of Zhou Tiantian.

"Thank you grandma, you don't have to worry about me, I can just pick it up by myself."

Zhou Tiantian was holding the ribs and was gnawing. Her mouth was covered with oil and her cheeks were bulging. She looked inexplicably similar to the little squirrel, and she looked even more cute.

"Eat more whatever you like. If you can't reach it, let your breasts or your dad pick it up for you." On the other end, Mr. Zhou picked up a piece of chicken thigh for Zhou Tiantian and said with a smile.

"Well, yes, grandpa, you can eat too."

Zhou Tiantian happened to gnaw a piece of ribs, so she hurriedly picked up some elbows and chicken for her grandparents and put them in the bowl. Then she came back and chewed the ribs and gnawed the chicken legs safely.

She likes to chew ribs, and thinks that the meat on the ribs is more delicious than meat slices and elbows.

The children ate casually, while Mr. Zhou and Zhou Anbang and others ate and drank while drinking. Sister Xu also ate and joked while eating, and also took care of their new wife Lin Fang from time to time.

The family was reunited and enjoying the sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner, laughing and laughing all over the room, which was a festive atmosphere for the New Year.

It took about an hour for the New Year’s Eve dinner to part. The old man and Zhou Anbang brothers all drank a lot, and they all blushed.

Needless to say, the children were full of oil in their mouths and round belly. They each held their stomachs and shouted that they were full of food.

"If you eat too much, just walk around the ground. Don't go out and run and play first. Be careful of your stomach hurts."

Old Mrs. Zhou smiled as she looked at the children, and hurriedly told them to be careful. She was not allowed to go out after dinner, and she choked on the cold wind and felt her stomach hurt.

Zhou Lili and Lin Fang worked together, cleaned the table, folded the leftovers together and took them out, put the dishes and chopsticks into the pot to wash them. After working hard for a while, I sat down to rest.

The old man was a little confused after drinking too much, so he simply lay on the kang and stared at him. Zhou Anbang and his brothers felt sleepy, so they went to the west room to sleep.

Sister Xu sat together and chatted for a while. Seeing that it was not too early, he quickly went to the kitchen to chop the stuffing and prepare to make dumplings in the evening.

The old lady sat on the kang, instructed Yongping and Yongqing to pull out melon seeds, pine nuts, hazelnuts, etc. from the cabinet, "You two go and fry them all for the rest of the night."

The melon seeds are grown by our own home, and there is no need to mention the pine nuts and hazelnuts. Of course, they were given by the Han family and they have never been willing to move them.

Yongping and Yongqing are all good at work, so this is naturally no problem. So he took a few bags and went to the kitchen, stir-frying slowly over low heat, and frying all kinds of nuts one by one.

When the melon seeds are cooked, they are filled with a dustpan and then they are shaken off. There is no need for pine nuts and hazelnuts. I just need to find a place to serve them. Whoever wants to eat them will grab them and eat them by themselves.

"Tiantian, come on, eat pine nuts and hazelnuts." As soon as the frying was done, the old lady called the children to come and eat it.

The Han family gave a lot of food. Usually, the children couldn't get enough food at this time.

When the children heard the grandmother shouting, they immediately ran over, and then each of them put on a small bag of pine nuts or hazelnuts, turned around and ran to play.

Zhou Tiantian also grabbed two handfuls of pine nuts and put them in her pocket, but she did not use her teeth to crack her. She was in the tooth change period, and her teeth on both sides were a little loose and she dared not eat these hard nuts.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Tiantian went to the drawer to search, found a pair of pliers, and planned to use pliers to grab pine nuts to eat.

But she tried it and it seemed that she couldn't hold it open. Zhou Tiantian was so angry that she pouted and smashed the pine nuts with pliers. As a result, the pine nut shell was smashed open and Ren'er inside was also smashed.

"What is Tianbao doing? Oh, is this pine nuts smashed? Come on, I'll teach you how to eat it." Old Mrs. Zhou saw it, so she smiled and waved to Zhou Tiantian, asking her little granddaughter to go over.

"Milk, I'm changing my teeth. I don't dare to eat pine nuts. I'm still greedy, so I thought of using pliers to clamp them, but I couldn't clamp them open. I wanted to use pliers to smash them, but I broke them all." Zhou Tiantian pursed her mouth, feeling that the pine nuts were too unfriendly to her.

The key is that the pine nuts she ate in her previous life were all opened, so she could just peel them open. Now she can’t eat them, so it’s too hard to eat them.

"Silly girl, I want to find my grandma. There is a way to do it. Go and bring the weight that your mother sells bean sprouts." Old Mrs. Zhou smiled and gave Zhou Tiantian an idea.

Zhou Tiantian was stunned when she heard this, "Weighing? Can it work?" She didn't hear that she could use a weight to smash pine nuts.

She had seen a novel advertisement in her previous life, such as smashing walnuts with the emperor's jade seal. Well, the weight is iron, and it should be heavier and stronger than the jade seal. It should be fine to use it to smash pine nuts, right?

Since grandma said that, Zhou Tiantian couldn't doubt anything, so she immediately went to find the weight.

The scales of these days are all rod scales, and the weight is just a heavy iron lump, and a thin rope is tied to the top.

Zhou Tiantian found the scale and took it off, took it back to the east room. "Milk, how do you use this thing?" Zhou Tiantian asked Old Mrs. Zhou with a confused look on her face.

Old Mrs. Zhou took the weight with a smile, then placed a pine nut on the edge of the kang, and gently knocked it with the weight, and the shell of the pine nut cracked, and the rein inside was intact.

"Just use that, look, how convenient is this?"
