Chapter 711 New Year's Eve

Time flies very quickly. In a few days, the Little New Year is coming. The village has heard the sound of firecrackers. On this day, I have to worship God. Every household has prepared offerings, including a knife of meat, a bowl of rice, a chicken, a fish, a bowl of lotus root, and a few rice cakes. Many people have prepared these.

Prepare more if you have the conditions, and prepare less if you don't, as long as you are sincere.

The Tang family was prepared naturally and abundantly. Zhang Manyue was generous on this day. She would do her best to put the best on the altar for the gods to enjoy.

After burning incense, burning ingots (not dogs, but paper ingots), setting firecrackers, bowing to the gods, the ceremony of worshiping the gods is completed, and then the New Year's Eve is celebrated. After the New Year's Eve, we will wait for the New Year's Eve.

All children are looking forward to New Year's Eve because they can wear new clothes and delicious food that day, and can get New Year's money. Adults will not beat or scold them if they do something wrong. No matter how angry they are, they will have to be suppressed. They cannot beat or scold children during the New Year. These days are really the spring for children, and they can play with them to the fullest.

New Year's Eve finally arrived, and the whole village was full of joy. Even Huang Huailin's family was decorated with lights. Huailin's death did not bring them too much sadness. After all, before death, Huailin's wife was already crazy. She was fighting for food with her grandchildren and did not work. She ate more than before. She had no filial sons in front of her bed for a long time. What's more, Huang Huailin had already had a big opinion on his mother, so when something happened to Huailin's wife, Huang Huailin's family breathed a sigh of relief and finally got relieved.

On that day, Tang Laigui and his wife also came down. Shi Lan's belly was sharp and straight. Those who had seen it said that she had a son, and Zhang Manyue was even more sure, because Tang Xiaonan had said it was her younger brother.

Shi Lan's due date is just these few days. Zhang Manyue means that she can celebrate the New Year at her parents' home, so she should not go back and forth. However, Shi Lan thought that she usually lives in her parents' home, so she still had to go back to her in-laws' home on New Year's Eve. Moreover, her health is in good condition. The doctor asked her to walk more before giving birth, which is conducive to delivery.

This year's reunion dinner was also the year when the Tang family was the most populous, and the four siblings gathered together, and a lot of people were added. Two tables were set up, and the room was full. Tang Baishan was very pleased. The old man liked a family of children and grandchildren. It would be even better if four generations could live together. Tang Baishan didn't dare to think about it, but he had to work hard, and it might be possible.

Tang Baishan was in a very good mood and gave every child New Year's money, one person had five cents. The old man made a big deal this year, but in previous years, he only had one cent.

Tang Laijin was even more generous, each person, and Zhang Manyue had several big eyes. He secretly decided to ask Tang Laijin for money after thirty, and he had to put it away, otherwise the third brother would be defeated again.

After the reunion dinner, the Tang family became more and more lively because many people in the village came to watch the Spring Festival Gala. I had long heard that there was a Spring Festival Gala in the evening. The villagers had agreed with the Tang family early. Tang Baishan and Zhang Manyue naturally agreed. On New Year's Eve, of course it must be lively and only when there is a popularity is rich!

(PS, there was a Spring Festival Gala in 1979. Director Yang Jie of Journey to the West was one of the directors of the Spring Festival Gala, but TV was not popular at that time, and not many people knew about it)

Tang Xiaonan also saw the ancient Spring Festival Gala. Although the equipment was backward and the stage setting was simple, the performers' superb stage skills made the evening colorful, which was no less than the grand Spring Festival Gala later. The rice fields were full of villagers, and some even climbed onto trees. Everyone was amused by the sketches of crosstalk and burst into tears.

On that night, the whole village of Mopanshan was filled with laughter and everyone's face was filled with smiles.

However, the next day, the Tang family ushered in a bigger happy event. Shi Lan started the trip in the middle of the night and drove the tractor to the health center overnight.
