"Why are the wages paid again?"

Li Anle was already ready to spend money happily and generously. Who would have thought that the fifth aunt would stop making trouble and turn in her salary again.

"What's going on, Dad?"

"Oh, your fifth uncle gave it to me."

Li Guoxi just found out. "Let's spend this new year in peace first. Don't talk nonsense about this matter. Sooner or later, this family will have to score points. Your fifth aunt won't be happy, and there will be a fuss."

"oh."

Forget it, let's celebrate the New Year in peace, Li Anle just took advantage of this time to get the radio ready.

It's a matter of time before the family is separated, but I'm afraid it won't be done within this year. I'm afraid I'll have to wait until spring next year, and the fifth aunt won't be willing to pay wages, and sooner or later there will be trouble. I'm afraid the fifth uncle alone won't be able to suppress the fifth aunt.

During dinner, the atmosphere was a bit strange, no one spoke. Li Anle took a few grains of rice and glanced at his grandma Wang Xiulan. He looked bad. I am afraid it is not easy to hand over this salary.

"Anju, hurry up and eat. We will set off firecrackers later."

"Um."

Li Anju nodded and quickly took a few mouthfuls of multi-grain rice. There was something wrong with this guy.

The adults must have something to say, so it would be safer to finish the meal quickly and set off firecrackers. Otherwise, grandma and the others will be unhappy later and give themselves a few slaps, which would be very unlucky.

"Don't play too late." Li Guoxi warned.

"knew."

A group of kids ran outside the yard to get some branches, weeds, and sneaky matches to light. Li Anle distributed the demolished firecrackers to a few people. "Don't blow them up." They crackled and played for a while before returning.

at home.

It’s really boring, there are no fireworks, nothing, and a bunch of kids in the village don’t come out to play. “What’s wrong, you’re not happy?”

"Well, boring."

"Aren't you playing with firecrackers? It's not fun."

"generally."

"How about daddy make you a lantern."

"Lantern, Dad, can you make a lantern?"

"No, such a simple lantern can make it difficult for your father." Li Guoxi said proudly.

"Then do it now."

"Go to bed early tomorrow morning."

"oh."

Li Anle murmured, took off his clothes and crawled into bed. "By the way, Dad, did Gang Lai say anything?"

"What are you talking about? You want to ask about the family separation, right?"

"Um."

"There will be no separation of households after the fifteenth anniversary."

"What do you mean?"

Li Anle didn't understand what it meant.

"The family has been separated, but to the outside world, we are still one family."

"Why?"

"In this way, you only need to pay one share for red and white matters."

Good guy, my mother is really good at calculating, Li Anle muttered. "How should we divide the family?"

"It doesn't matter how you divide it, just divide it like this."

"I didn't say the specific division."

"Didn't say."

Come on, this isn't grandma's delaying strategy. This guy sounds like the family has not been separated. Li Anle muttered, "Dad, it's New Year's Eve tomorrow, how will our family celebrate?"

"Let's get through it as it should be."

"oh."

"Then I want to go to the commune to buy some food."

"Okay, the supply and marketing cooperative will be open for half a day tomorrow morning."

Nowadays, the emphasis is on not stopping production at the age of 30, and continuing to work on the first day of the new year to celebrate the New Year's Eve. The supply and marketing cooperatives take a half-day holiday on New Year's Eve, and work half a day on the first day of the new year. They talk about ensuring supply, but there is really no sense of the New Year at all.

Tomorrow I want to create some New Year flavor. It happens to be the New Year, so I will first give some New Year benefits to a few of my loyal employees.

"Half a catty of both halva and maltose."

Early in the morning, Li Anle and his father Li Guoxi went to the commune supply and marketing cooperative to buy candies, candied fruits, soda, and canned food. Unfortunately, melon seeds and peanuts could only be bought with a small book in department stores in the city.

"Dad, do we make dumplings at home?"

"You want to eat dumplings?"

"Um."

"Then wrap it up."

"Then let's go buy some meat."

Make some meat dumplings, then some leeks, eggs, celery and pork, and make more, just in time to eat during the Chinese New Year. I bought some white noodles first, luckily I still have some food stamps, and there are enough meat stamps, so the father and son bought a lot of things

.

After swaying back home while chewing the meat buns, Li Anle called over Li Anju, Anwang, Li Shu, Li Hua, and Li Hong. These were all loyal people under Li Anle. "Li Liu, Li

Qin, Li Lu, Li Anye, you guys, please stand behind."

Put aside the little carrots for now, Li Anle wants to reward his ‘employees’.

"Anju, you guys have performed well this year, and each of you will be rewarded fifty cents."

Fifty cents, this is definitely a lot of money for Li Anju and the others. "Ten candies per person, a bottle of soda, twenty firecrackers, and a box of matches. Remember not to burn the pyre, otherwise

If you get beaten, don't blame me for not warning you."

"I know, Anle."

A few happy things, as for a few radishes, a few candies per person, or firecrackers, Li Anle didn't give him any. He was too young, so what would he do if he exploded? As for Li Anye's troubles, he asked Li Anju to beat his brother.

Crying, Li Anle clapped his hands happily, "It's a good spanking. I'm afraid my butt is swollen. You little brat, you dare to lose your temper with your brother and me. You deserve to be spanked. I spank you little baby."

Always merciless.

"Go find eldest sister and the others to make dumplings."

Li Anle doesn't want to look at Li Anye who is wiping his nose. I won't tolerate you, dear.

"Anle, you hit Anye again."

"Sister-in-law, I didn't hit you, An Ju did."

Li Anle would never hit his younger brothers and sisters at home. At most, he would give instructions. "Sister-in-law, just in time, I'm looking for you."

"What to do?"

"Make dumplings."

"I bought white noodles, pork, and celery."

Celery, this stuff was brought out by Li Anle from Xueba's courtyard, and leeks, which are rare fresh vegetables. "I'm buying green vegetables again, I'm afraid they are not cheap."

"It's okay, I got it in exchange for mushrooms."

Well, Li Anle is now comfortable with changing the mushrooms to vegetables.

"Then I'll ask Li Qi to come over and make dumplings together."

"Um."

Dumplings are a good thing. During the Chinese New Year, being able to eat a meal of meat dumplings is considered a good year for many members of the Lijiapo Brigade. Although it is not recommended to eat and drink heavily during the New Year, after all, during the Chinese New Year, everyone also spends time at home.

Prepared things and took them out.

Li Anle's has braised fish, pheasant stewed with mushrooms, and a roasted pork, three main dishes. It is really considered that there are few good banquet noodles in Lijiapo. While Wang Xiulan is cooking, don't mutter, how can you eat like this? It's too luxurious.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is not counting the celery meat dumplings made by Li Anle. These are the Fuqiang noodles I bought, not the usual mixed noodles, but real white noodles. Looking at the dumplings

They all look good.

"Dad, let me give you a gift." Before dinner, Li Anle took out the radio he made and handed it to Li Guoxi.

"Is this a radio?"

"Um."

"Do you like it?"
