Wen Family Has a Wife

When several children heard the words, they all looked at Chen Ningya with hope in their eyes.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. No matter how poor the Wen family used to be, the Zhang family would try their best to make a table of delicious food on this day. Although the meat was only five or six pieces, and the fish was only two or three palm-sized, it was enough for children. They are happy.

This year, the family not only built a new house, but also had a pile of food in the cellar. It suddenly changed from the poorest in the village to the richest in the village. No matter what, it can't be worse than other people's food.

Chen Ningya looked at one big and five small with a funny look, and said angrily: "This look is like how I usually treat you harshly."

Wen Youshan shook his head like a rattle.

Wen Yuanliang hurriedly said: "Mother, don't tease my father, that's not what my father meant, to be honest, what we have eaten this year is not bad, although it is also brown rice porridge, but the porridge is thicker than other people's, and the ingredients are sufficient. , we've never been hungry."

Wen Yuanliang is telling the truth. The conditions of the Sun family are not bad in the village. He used to find Sun Qingwan to see Grandma Sun cooking often, and the porridge was better than the ones they used to eat. It was still thin, but The Sun family has a kind of beans, and the porridge has beans in it. It looks like porridge and bean rice. It’s weird, but it can be filled, but it’s definitely not as good as theirs.

"That's right, mother sees that I have grown half a head this year, and I can't wear the clothes I used to wear. Fortunately, mother made me new clothes, and I will put them on tomorrow." Wen Yuanzhen echoed Wen Yuanliang.

The other three little ones also bragged.

Chen Ningya was almost blown away by what they said, looking at them and said, "It seems that you both decided to have a good meal tomorrow."

Everyone nodded in unison.

"Okay, then we'll have a good meal tomorrow, and don't drink porridge. Mother will give you pancakes."

"Wow! Let's eat pancakes..." The children danced with excitement, jumping and jumping, as if they were about to lift the roof off.

Even the quietest Wen Yuanjing cheered along. Wen Yuanxing didn't know what pancakes were at all, but seeing how happy his brother and sister were, he also followed along.

The corners of Chen Ningya's mouth raised unconsciously, looking at the children's smiles greedily.

Wen Youshan on the side stared at her quietly, his eyes full of tenderness.

The next day, Chen Ningya woke up as soon as the sky was bright. The new house was bright and warm. When she walked out of the room, she realized that there were small snowflakes floating in the sky.

Chen Ningya sighed and rubbed her hands and went to the next room to take a look. Wen Yuanzhen and Wen Yuanjing were sleeping sweetly, while the two boys in the other room were sleeping soundly. , One kicked the quilt and the other rolled the quilt. Chen Ningya quietly went in and covered them with the quilt. Fortunately, the youngest was not placed in this room.

After finishing these, she took the candles and went down to the cellar. Since it is natural to want to eat delicious food, it is only once a year, and the children must be able to eat it.

Fortunately, she froze the fish and shrimp that she brought back from the last rush to the sea. Now they are still fresh. I kept two pheasants before. Together with the pork ribs and trotters that I cut yesterday, I can make braised chestnuts. Pig trotters, braised prawns, stir-fried octopus, steamed fish, roasted pheasant, pork ribs and taro soup, seafood noodles, including pork, kelp, shell meat, octopus, shrimp, as long as you have seafood at home. Put a little bit, it is guaranteed to be delicious, and the pancakes promised to the children are made with pure white noodles and pork stuffing, which is absolutely fragrant.

It takes a lot of oil to make a table like this, but fortunately, she boiled a lot of lard before, and bought some sesame oil yesterday to dare to be so arrogant.

When Chen Ningya walked out of the cellar, the sky became brighter again, and the snow seemed to be falling even more. Everyone said that the snow was a good year. Everyone said that it was a good omen when it snowed on the 30th of the Chinese New Year. Laughing, he trotted into the stove with something in his hand. Although the pan was cold, it was not too warm compared to the outside.

She quickly lit the fire and boiled the water, and washed the ingredients before the water boiled.

I still ate brown rice porridge in the morning, but because I bought a few kilograms of pork, Chen Ningya was not stingy, she put it down a little, plus eggs and shrimp, the breakfast is not bad, besides, the children are looking forward to the big dinner in the evening. They don't mind giving them water in the morning.

One by one, the children were like Shunfeng. They woke up when they heard the movement in the kitchen. The older children helped Chen Ningya and helped with the washing. Wen Yuanhong led his younger brothers and sisters to study calligraphy in the main room. It was cold. Can't get out, the three of them can play for most of the day holding the sand table.

Wen Youshan rarely slept in, and when he walked out of the room, he saw the busy lady and the cheerful child laughing unconsciously. Hand, turned around and entered the stove, "Miss, do you need me to do something?"

Chen Ningya said without turning her head: "Since you wake up, let's prepare, don't we have to worship our ancestors today?"

The custom of worshipping ancestors has been passed down from the past, and the ancestors of the Chinese New Year should also eat something good.

Wen Youshan nodded silently, "Then I'm going to invite out the ancestral tablet?"

Chen Ningya had nothing to do with it. When she finished her work and ran to the front yard, she saw black lines all over her head. She had wondered where the ancestral tablet of the Wen family was placed, but she never expected it to be stored in Zhang's closet. , Seriously, she has never touched Zhang's things. If she opened Zhang's wardrobe unknowingly, she would not be scared to death when she saw these tablets.

Wen Youshan looked at Chen Ningya's indescribable expression, rubbed her head and smiled embarrassedly: "Before the family was small, there was no way to do this. You can't put the tablet in the main room, and people come and go."

Of course, the more important point is that he is afraid of Chen Ningya's anger. In the past, Chen Ningya was the most particular. She never participated in ancestor worship. With a look on his face, Mrs. Zhang sneered a lot for this, Wen Youshan was not good at being a man, so he simply found an excuse to put away the ancestral tablet and invite it out every year when the ancestors worshipped.

Zhang Shi originally disagreed, but his family was like this. If he disagreed, there would be no place to place the ancestral tablet, so he would just turn a blind eye and let Wen Youshan arrange it.

Seeing him like this, Chen Ningya knew not only the reason, but she also knew what kind of virtue she was in the past, she sighed in her heart, and felt more and more that she was not a thing before.

Perhaps because of guilt, Chen Ningya offered to propose: "Since we all live in the backyard now, let's clean up my mother's room and place the ancestral tablet. From now on, there will be three pillars of fragrance every day, what do you think?"

Wen Youshan was stunned in surprise, and it took a while to regain his senses and nodded desperately.

Seeing how excited he is, he is happier than making money.
