Chapter 205 New Year’s Eve

Besides, the weather was so cold, even if Su He really delivered it personally, she would still be a little worried.

"Well, Ah He is really thoughtful. You still think of me in this cold weather."

Song Wanru felt very happy when she thought of this. She liked Su He very much. But later on, Su He came to the town less often. She hadn't seen Su He for a long time and missed her very much.

"Then let's cook these dishes tonight as a token of Ah He's love. Let Dad and Mom have a taste too."

Song Wanru didn't dislike the food Su He sent her at all, even though Su He said it was cheap food from his own home.

But she knew Su He's cooking skills very well. Not to mention that there were always people lining up at the Su's snack stall every day waiting to eat.

Moreover, most of the new dishes in Qianweilou are made by Su He. As a proof of how good Qianweilou’s business is now, you can see that Zhou Yuzhi has already opened branches elsewhere.

"I understand, young lady. I've made a note of it. Miss Ahe also gave me the recipes for these dishes, so don't worry."

Su He was really thoughtful. She was afraid that the chef in the Song Mansion could not make the best dishes, so she wrote down the recipes.

In the Su family's kitchen, everyone is busy preparing New Year's Eve dinner.

Su Chi was helping to light the fire, Xia Mei and Luo were cutting vegetables, Su He was the chef, and Xie was helping out.

While everyone was busy, they were chatting and laughing, talking about interesting things in the past.

Everyone agreed that this New Year's Eve should be more lively, and the dishes tonight are especially sumptuous.

Soon the table was full.

There are sweet and sour spare ribs, fish-flavored eggplant, braised fish, steamed pork with rice flour, bean sprouts, dried bamboo shoots, and dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork.

After finishing the work, Xia Mei looked into the yard and said worriedly, "Why haven't Brother Mu and the others come back yet? Why don't I go out and take a look?"

Xia Mei saw that dinner was almost ready, but the two people who went to the town had not returned yet. The wind was blowing hard outside, and she felt a little worried.

Su He originally wanted to say a few words of comfort, but seeing her anxious expression, he could not help but lower his voice and said to her:

"Brother said he was going to buy some snacks. I'm afraid he'll be delayed for some time. I'll go out with you to take a look."

Upon hearing Su He's words, Xia Mei nodded immediately, took off her apron, and the two of them went out of the hospital to take a look.

With a creaky sound, the gate opened.

A hurried voice came.

"We are back. The wind is really strong."

When Su He and Xia Mei heard the voice, they looked at each other and smiles suddenly appeared on their faces. It was Su Bai's voice.

"Second brother, you guys are back. Where's the eldest brother?"

Su Bai walked into the house carrying a backpack, put the backpack on the ground, and took off the hat on his head, revealing his handsome face that was a little red from the cold.

He quickly said to Su He, "Brother, go to the backyard and settle the cows, then come in. This is the food we bought, just in time for us to eat while we stay up tonight."

Su He smiled and nodded, then quickly added two pieces of firewood to the brazier, poured two cups of hot water, and handed one cup to Su Bai.

"Did everything go smoothly today? Have all the things been delivered?"

Su Bai rubbed his hands together and slowly drank a few sips of hot water. He gradually calmed down and said to Su He:

"It went smoothly. The items were delivered safely. The Song Mansion gave them directly to Miss Shu'er. She even asked you about it."

As they were talking, Su Mu also came out from the backyard. Xia Mei hurried forward with hot water, and waited for Su Mu to take off his hat before handing it to him. Seeing this, Su Mu looked at Xia Mei and smiled foolishly.

"Hurry up and take it. You have been running all the way. Don't catch a cold. There is firewood here. Come and warm yourself up first."

Xia Mei kept muttering to herself, fearing that he would catch a cold.

"You guys warm up by the fire first, and then we can have dinner."

Su He smiled and pulled the two of them to sit down by the fire.

Then he went to the kitchen, packed some of each of the meat and vegetables, put them in a basket, and asked Su Chi to deliver it to next door.

Su Chi obediently picked up the basket and ran to the Lu family next door.

Today is New Year's Eve. Lu Yunqi and Yun Rong refused to come and eat with the Su family no matter what, and instead stayed at home.

Su He also understood their thoughts and did not force them.

After all, it is New Year's Eve. No matter how good the relationship between their two families is, it is not appropriate to go to someone else's home.

So I thought it would be the same if I asked Su Chi to send some meat and vegetables over.

Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Luo started to bring up the food. When they were almost done, Su Mu and Su Bai had also recovered.

"Okay, let's eat."

The whole family sat together. This New Year's Eve should be the most relaxing one. Everyone in the Su family had a relaxed and happy smile on their face.

Looking at the table full of delicious food and the fruits and pastries on the small table nearby, the family couldn't stop smiling.

These things were not available before. This year, the Su family finally got their reward after all the hardship.

The family had a lively reunion dinner, and after dinner, they cleaned up the dishes.

There was a fire in the room and it was warm.

Su He made a pot of hot tea, and the family chatted while eating melon seeds. Xia Mei sat next to Su Mu and did needlework.

On weekdays, she and Su Mu would go to the town to set up stalls, and the clothes at home were made by Old Lady Su or the Xie and Luo families, but now they were just sitting around doing nothing.

There was nothing else to do. They went out a lot and their shoes were worn out, so they took this opportunity to make a pair of sturdier shoes for Su Mu.

As soon as Su Mu, who was standing by, saw the size of the shoes in Xia Mei's hand, he knew that these were made for him. His mouth almost opened wide and he smiled foolishly at Xia Mei.

Tonight is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and there won't be many people visiting, so the family will sit by the fire and chat to welcome the arrival of the new year.

Song House.

Mrs. Song looked at the dishes on the table that she had never seen before, and couldn't help but taste them out of curiosity.

"What kind of dish is this? It tastes really special and sweet. Why haven't I bought this dish before?"

Mrs. Song pointed to a dish of stir-fried bean sprouts on the table and asked the maid beside her.

And this is not a green vegetable, it looks quite special.

"Madam, this is called bean sprouts. The soup next to it is also made with bean sprouts. You should try it."

When Mrs. Song heard this, she immediately became interested and nodded, not noticing that the one who responded to her was Shu'er.

"Mom, this dish was specially sent over today by my little sister Ah He that I mentioned to you."

After Song Wanru finished speaking, she pointed at several other dishes and introduced them one by one: "There are also dried bamboo shoots, preserved eggs..."

After a pause, he continued, "And this pork was also sent to me by her family after they slaughtered the New Year pig."

Song Wanru was smiling happily, as if she was introducing her favorite thing to Mrs. Song.

When talking about Su He, his face is full of smiles.
