Chapter 845 - 845: Firecrackers!
There were also a few charcoal basins in the central room. The charcoal basins were filled with red-hot charcoal. Beside them was a basket of charcoal that Zi Cui and the others had moved to the front. The central room felt cozy and warm with all the heat.
The lights are also lit brightly.
“Erfu, start the firecrackers! Once it’s done, it’ll be time for dinner!”
Erfu was waiting in the courtyard with a string of firecrackers. When he heard his father call for him, he quickly struck on the lighter in his hand and lit the firecrackers before throwing them away.
The firecrackers immediately crackled on the ground in the courtyard.
After the ring, Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, Xue Dagui, and the others all laughed and said, “Alright, alright. It’s time to eat.”
Xue Dafu, Xue Dagui, Xue Yifu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Sifu wanted to drink, so they sat at the table on the other side. Coincidentally, there was an empty seat on the other side, so they let Xue Gouzi sit next to Xue Sifu. The table on this side had Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, Li Hehua, Liu Guixia, Yu Hongyan, Shao Youyue, Zi Cui, Xue Liu, Xia Han, and Miao Han.
Yu Hongyan was still carrying Xue Shi in her arms.
It was the New Year, so everyone was naturally wearing new clothes.
“Eat, eat.” Liu Guixia greeted everyone with a smile. After so many years of celebrating the New Year, this year was the only year where the dishes were so scrumptious.
There were chicken, duck, and beef. There was also seafood like crabs, eels, and prawns. There were enough vegetables for everyone to eat as well.
“How do I eat this big crab?” Xue Dagui picked up a crab, not knowing how to eat it.
“I’ll teach you.” Xue Sifu immediately began to open the crab. He was quite eager to give it a try. When he was a waiter in the past, someone had ordered crabs in a restaurant. He had seen others eat them, but he had never eaten them himself. Moreover, this crab looked very fat and delicious. His appetite started churning at the food in front of him.
Liu Guixia and Shao Youyue smiled. “You look so excited. You asked Zicui and the others to buy this odd thing but we don’t even know how to eat it.”
Other than crabs, there were also eels and prawns. Shao Youyue had asked Zi Cui and the others to buy them. In reality. Zi Cui and the others did not buy them. They had directly gone to Quanping Inn to get them.
Quanping Inn had already prepared it, but it was not easy to send it over.
“You’ll know after eating it once. I didn’t know at first until I tried.” Shao Youyue smiled.
Li Hehua sat beside Jiang Yue, and on the other side of Jiang Yue was Xue Yan. Although Li Hehua’s stomach had grown bigger, her arms were long enough to reach for things. She didn’t need to stand up to get the food that she wanted to eat. She lowered her head and asked the two children, “Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, do you want to eat crabs?”
Jiang Yue was slowly eating the ribs in her small bowl. The ribs were deliberately placed in front of her so she could pick them up easily. Hearing this, she shook her head. It wasn’t that she didn’t like it, but it was too troublesome to break it open. It wasn’t as simple as it seemed.
Xue Yan wanted a crab.
The crab immediately covered his small bowl.
Jiang Yue took a look and thought, ‘Good thing I didn’t take it.’ Then, she lowered her head and continued eating her ribs.
She only ate prawns after eating two pieces of ribs.
Eating prawns was much easier than eating crabs.
“Do you want that eel?” Xue Yan was about to pick up the eel and ask Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue’s arms were too short now, so she couldn’t reach that many dishes..
