She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 797 Various New Year Goods

They didn't say it explicitly, but their views on the two widows, Lin and Sun, in Yard No. 1, had undergone subtle changes.

There is still sympathy and pity, but it is mixed with something else.

The few of them didn't say anything more and continued to busy themselves with the housework.

After all, we live a long time, but time flies and the sun will be gone in a blink of an eye.

In Mrs. Tang's room.

Liu Xiaohua and Liu Xiaomei, brother and sister, also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. When they heard Lin Sun and the others coming, they subconsciously covered each other's mouths to prevent each other from making any sound, and then hid in the corner behind the door.

That way, even if the two of them came into the house, they wouldn't notice them.

Their subconscious avoidance and their relaxed expressions after the two widows Lin Sun left were all seen by Huo Junyao.

Because they wanted to help Mrs. Tang with her work and refused to listen no matter how much she tried to persuade them, Mrs. Tang asked Huo Junyao to take them to wipe the stools.

These days, it is normal for both adults and children to work, and there is no such thing as pampering children and not letting them work.

Besides, wiping stools is the easiest job.

When Mrs. Tang was free, Huo Junyao told her about the reactions of the brother and sister that she had observed today when they heard that Lin Sun and the others were coming.

Mrs. Tang's eyes darkened for a moment, and she sighed, "We all guessed it. These two children probably didn't have a good life in their hands."

In fact, it’s not that they didn’t have a good life, they might even have been abused!

But there is no evidence to support this statement. Even if the child has injuries, it can be said that the Xia family did it before.

The child’s own identification cannot be counted, after all, he is so young.

"Forget it, let them stay at home first. It will be fine when their mother is discharged from the hospital."

Mrs. Tang later told Ye Shu and the others about this, and naturally they were all sighing with emotion.

Everyone's guesses are actually pretty similar, and children's reactions cannot be faked.

If he had not been abused by them, he would definitely not have run away like this. Even if the child really missed his biological mother, if he told them, they would be able to coax and comfort him.

Look at them now. Mrs. Tang coaxed them and said that she would take them to the hospital in two days. Aren’t they still not making a fuss or running away?

When Zhao Jinhua heard this, she couldn't hold back and cursed, "As they say, there's always something hateful about pitiful people! It's true!"

Everyone: "..."

The next day was New Year’s Eve.

The whole country is advocating that production and work should not be stopped during the Spring Festival, and Wumu Town is similar.

Only a few factories gave most of their employees a day off due to a lack of materials caused by heavy snow blocking the roads, and the remaining employees took turns on duty symbolically.

The rest of the factories and companies did not have a holiday.

For most people, New Year’s Eve is just like any other day. As soon as they open their eyes, they pack up and get ready to go to work.

However, everyone in Courtyard No. 2 started preparing the New Year’s Eve dinner as soon as they opened their eyes!

After all, it is Chinese New Year, so we must have a sumptuous family reunion dinner!

Everyone has some free time at home and is ready to show off their skills!

So we discussed what to do tonight?

Ye Shu felt a little guilty. This was not very friendly to her who had a golden finger!

There were many ingredients in her space bag that she could only eat secretly at home at night behind closed doors, without letting others know.

So after thinking about it, he said something that wouldn't go wrong: "Let's stew the pork elbow."

Huo Yisheng bought it and brought it back.

They rushed to the butcher shop several times but couldn't buy the good meat they wanted. They went too late and every time there were only some bones left.

Although Ye Shu would also buy some, he felt bad that he didn't buy any meat.

After several attempts in a row, she came back empty-handed. One time when Huo Yisheng came back, she couldn't help but complain to him.

As a result, he brought back two big elbows the next day.

On the same day, Lao Zhou and Lao Ren each brought back two strips of pork belly.

Later, Ye Shu found out that Huo Yisheng had been hanging around the butcher shop with his cycling team early in the morning.

As soon as the door of the butcher shop opened, Xiao Gao was asked to take off his uniform and take the money and ticket to buy meat.

Xiao Gao naturally didn't say anything and ran as fast as he could.

They are all in the same cycling team. It’s ok that Lao Ren and Lao Zhou can’t compare with Huo Yisheng in terms of professional ability, and they can’t dote on their wives mindlessly. So, they can’t lag too far behind him when it comes to buying things for the house!

So he asked his soldiers to take off their uniforms and buy meat.

They all lived in the same compound, and seeing them carrying so much meat home, Huo Yiting felt uncomfortable, so the next day he asked his guards to disguise themselves and buy a bunch of meat, and brought it back when he returned home in the evening.

So, when Ye Shu said stewed pork elbow, other families also smiled and said stewed meat.

The main dish for the Chinese New Year is ready.

Then each family started frying meatballs, mixed with vegetarian ones, and a lot of fried fish.

After each family has fried the snacks, they can exchange some with each other and then have a variety of New Year's goods with different flavors.

For example, Ye Shu makes meatballs with minced meat and mushrooms, Jin Saozi's specialty is white radish and meatballs, and Zhuang Jingjing makes fried lotus root boxes stuffed with minced meat and leeks.

Mrs. Tang also fried a lot of black sesame twisted dough sticks and coated them with brown sugar, using solid white flour.

In addition, each restaurant fries a lot of fried fish, sweet potato balls and the like.

As soon as the oil pan was opened, the aroma filled the air and the greedy children began to drool.

Lighting up the oil pan to fry New Year's goods is a time-consuming task, not to mention that every family has to fry a lot, so it's already noon when you're busy.

Have a simple lunch and start steaming buns in the afternoon.

We all live in the same yard. Although we all make buns and steamed buns, each family has different fillings and is used to giving them to each other.

Therefore, Ye Shu also specially made a dozen mixed buns to facilitate exchanges with other families.

Although the flour used is mixed flour, the filling is real cabbage, meat and red bean paste.

The reason why the buns are not made with white flour is to avoid being conspicuous, but everyone can understand why the meat filling is too thick. After all, her husband dotes on his wife. If his wife can't buy the meat even if she queues up, he can buy it while he is on patrol!

Just for this point, who else can compare? !

Zhao Jinhua knows how to make rice cakes. She started working on it in the morning and made some for each family.

Because glutinous rice is expensive and hard to buy, every family just tries it for the good luck of getting taller every year.

As a thank you, each family gave some fried New Year's goods.

So even though her family didn't light the oil pan, they still got a lot of fried New Year's goods.

On this day, the No. 2 courtyard was filled with joy and a strong New Year atmosphere.

But other families outside are not having it so easy.

Since morning, the aroma of all kinds of good things has never stopped over Yard No. 2.

In the evening, every family starts cooking. The fragrant, sour and spicy aroma wafts outside, making the neighbors so greedy that they can't sit still!
