Chapter 173 More than enough every year
Ye Yuanhang sensitively raised his head to look at the place where the air conditioner was produced, and when he saw Yingbao, his eyes became gentle.
He seemed to know what his sister Yingbao was thinking. He quickly walked to Yingbao's side and gently spread out Yingbao's fingers that were about to be scratched.
With the comfort of his elder brother Ye Yuanhang, Yingbao calmed down.
The brothers kept looking at Yingbao with concern. Under their gaze, Yingbao was about to speak when he was interrupted by his grandmother Wang Cuihua who suddenly appeared:
"What are you guys doing? Come over and have dinner."
"boil……"
"it is good"
"..."
The nine people spoke the same words with different pronunciations, but they represented the same meaning.
***
Today's lunch was particularly sumptuous.
The little ones could hardly close their mouths, especially little Mingchen, who raised his hand to wipe the drool that flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Although Yingbao didn't lose his composure like his brother Mingchen, he quickened his pace a lot.
Soon, eldest brother Ye Yuanhang and cousin Ye Heyun helped the adults bring out the delicious food from the kitchen, placed it on the dining table, and then took out the bowls and chopsticks.
Yingbao, Mingchen, Zilin, Yuezhou... also wanted to come along and help.
But he was stopped by his grandfather Ye Yaozu.
The reason is that the children are too young. It would be bad if they got scalded just by helping for a short while during the New Year.
Not long after,
The Ye family sat around the dinner table, enjoying the few leisurely days. The strong flavor of the New Year was overwhelming, making the whole family feel refreshed, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders.
The smooth wooden table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, including Baicai Julai, which was made from cabbage, green and red peppers, and pork in the greenhouse in the backyard.
To put it simply: the meat is wrapped in vegetables. The vegetables are grown at home and are definitely not as valuable as the pork bought from outside.
Here, vegetables are equivalent to an object, a package, a piece of thin paper, and pork is equivalent to the valuable treasure.
Think about it, the treasure is wrapped in the middle, doesn’t it mean: making money!
There is also chopped pepper fish head, which means "abundance every year".
I believe everyone knows this.
"Yu" and "Yu" have the same pronunciation, so "Yu" represents "abundance". For example, "niannianyouyu" means having a lot of wealth and living a good life every year, and there will be a lot of wealth left over during the Chinese New Year.
In the eyes of the Ye family, "there is fish every year" represents the yearning and hope for life.
They also hope that their family will have surplus wealth in the coming year, and that there will be surplus in other reserves such as food.
So that you won’t be innocent, be looked down upon, or go hungry or have insufficient food.
——There are many delicious things, good luck, prosperity, making money, peace in all seasons, prosperity, rising step by step, reunion, prosperity, purple air coming from the east, soaring high...
There are a total of twelve dishes served at noon. Each dish has an idiom. The meanings are different, but the general meaning is the same, which is to express good wishes for people.
The Ye family never dared to eat and drink like this in the past. This was something only a very small number of wealthy families in the capital would eat.
Grandpa Ye Yaozu and grandma Wang Cuihua had enjoyed a period of luxury before. When one was a child, the meals at home were much more luxurious than this. Unfortunately, he was too young at that time and could not remember it.
