Chapter 217: Donkey: The Ride (9)
The program recording and broadcasting date is tentatively scheduled for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month after the New Year.
After all, the Spring Festival Gala and some popular dramas are replayed repeatedly throughout the first month of the year to retain the audience. Other programs with low ratings have to be sidelined.
The grandfather and grandson didn't go anywhere. They just stayed at home, warming themselves by the fire and browsing their phones, all laughing happily.
The snow turned into ice. To exaggerate a little, the temperature inside and outside the house was as cold as ice and fire.
The little donkey, shivering in the cold wind, was finally allowed to stay in the house after constant protests and shouts.
The woodshed was warm, with some sweet potatoes and rice cakes roasting in the crackling fire, and the air was filled with a sweet smell.
Tang Chao picked the biggest sweet potato, roasted it until the skin was crispy, and with a snap, he broke it in the middle to let the scorching heat inside dissipate, then waved to the little donkey who was drooling with greed.
【Ah~】
I rushed over and barely stopped in front of the fire. I took a bite of the roasted sweet potato. Mmm, so sweet! Even first love is not this sweet! I am so happy!
o(*￣▽￣*)o
[Grandpa, the glutinous rice cake is also baked. Do you want to share one with him? ]
Tang Xiaobao held up a piece of glutinous rice cake that had been baked out of shape and had a bubble in the middle, and asked eagerly.
[Don’t, God knows why its newly grown milk teeth are loose. This glutinous rice cake is soft, sticky and sticky to the teeth. Don’t let its teeth fall out…]
Tang Xiaobao laughed so hard that he lost hold of the glutinous rice cake and it fell into the fire, inevitably getting burnt.
Little Donkey: I didn’t offend any of you. Humph, when I get my teeth replaced, I will eat to my heart’s content!!! The brown sugar glutinous rice cake is super fragrant!
The sky cleared up at noon on New Year's Eve.
Tang Chuanwen drove his own car, loaded with gifts piled up like a mountain, and returned with his fat wife and Tang Xiaobei, who was dressed like a Fuwa.
There was also a nanny accompanying us. She didn't go back to her hometown this year, so she stayed at the host's house. It was a good opportunity for her to help prepare the New Year's Eve dinner today.
[Dad! Happy New Year! We are back! ]
The fat daughter-in-law has two big dimples when she smiles, which makes her look particularly festive. She holds Tang Xiaobei, who just woke up, in front of her. The mother and daughter smile at the same time, which makes people happy just by looking at them.
[Hey, Happy New Year, Xiaobei has grown into a big white bun, haha, come, give me a hug! ]
As soon as the baby was in his hand, the heavy feel made Tang Chao's arm sink down.
Wow, it’s really solid and sturdy!!!
[Dad, let's have a few drinks tonight. I brought some good wine, fifty years old.]
[Go, go, go, the kitchen has braised the pig's head, go and taste it to see if it's salty enough, I want to kiss my little grandson, who has the patience to look at you! ]
Tang Chao's words were impolite, but when Tang Chuanwen heard the word pig's head, his eyes lit up.
The way these two father and son get along with each other is always to argue with each other, without a single soft word.
Especially after Tang Chao's wife passed away due to illness, they spoke even more venomously. No one dared to mediate. Even the fat wife, who was mild-mannered, did not dare to...
Since he was a child, Tang Chuanwen's favorite dish is the braised pork head made by his father. The seasonings are just those on the stove. He doesn't know how his father controls the heat, but when it is braised, it tastes better than the ones bought outside. Even a five-star hotel can't make this taste.
He stuck a chopstick into the pot, and the marinade completely covered the meat. The steam was rising, and he couldn't see clearly, so he just poked around, picking whatever he poked.
[Hey, got it! ]
He raised his chopsticks and saw a piece of pork head as big as an adult's fist, half fat and half lean. The color of it was so appetizing that he took a bite.
┭┮﹏┭┮Woo, this is the taste!
Tang Xiaobei had eaten and slept enough, and was in a comfortable mood, so he was not shy and let the white-haired old man hug him and knead him.
Only when his soft and elastic buttocks were pinched did he groan to express his dissatisfaction.
His brother also came over and treated him as a toy, pinching his hands and feet.
He had a look of enjoyment on his face, and treated it as a massage. Wow, he enjoyed it even more than his dad.
The fat daughter-in-law took off her coat and sat down in front of the firewood pile.
After she gave birth to her second child, she became particularly afraid of the cold. When she just got off the car, the cold or heat was not obvious, but after standing in the yard for a while in the wind, she felt uncomfortable in her bones.
[Hey, Dad is such a fool. He actually put the donkey in front of the fire. Aren’t you afraid that it will be roasted if you are not careful?! ]
[Ah~Ah~Ah~]
(〃＞皿＜) Damn it, who are you? You actually want to eat roasted donkey meat, you bad woman!!!
The family was divided into three groups——
Tang Chao stuffed the younger grandson into the older grandson's arms and went into the kitchen to prepare dinner for the evening. The nanny washed and cut vegetables and helped him.
The mother and her two daughters gathered around the fire, chatting and laughing. Tang Xiaobei sang in a baby voice, fearing that he would be left out.
The sturdy Tang Chuanwen unloaded the things in the trunk and put them into the house again and again. There were all kinds of things. If the business car was not big enough, he would have wanted to move the supermarket back.
Who told his father that he had almost no desire for material life on weekdays? The material reserves at home were really simple...
Dad always talks about saving money for retirement, doesn't he believe his son is also filial? !
Perhaps it was because he lost all his fortune in the failure of his business venture a few years ago, which left too deep an impression on his father.
Even though he has climbed into the middle class now, his father still supports himself and never asks for money from me. If I give it to him, he will give it back.
Alas, how pitiful are the loving hearts of parents in the world.
The New Year’s Eve dinner starts at 8 o’clock in the evening, the same time as the Spring Festival Gala.
The TV was one of those old-fashioned big-headed ones, very thick and heavy, and the picture wasn't very clear, but the sound was very loud and there was a faint echo.
A large round table and a circle of six stools were placed in the living room, making it feel less empty.
[Grandpa, why aren’t you live streaming today? I follow your account and there are many fans leaving messages asking if you’ve gone to some remote mountain retreat for retreat again…]
[Yes, Dad, I also liked your videos one by one. Your update frequency is too low...]
The fat daughter-in-law held the sleepy little guy in one hand and said in a funny way.
At first, she was not happy about her father-in-law making a video of trimming his hooves, but she didn't expect that her husband would watch this on his phone every night before going to bed.
She was also affected. After watching it for a long time, she didn't feel sick at all. It was very relaxing and hypnotic.
Sometimes she can't wait to finish watching a video and can fall asleep easily and sleep till dawn.
Now, she has become a powerful member of the team that urges for updates.
[This is not good. I created this account to fix my hoof. If I take pictures of the New Year's Eve dinner, wouldn't that expose my privacy? Besides, you are such a big boss...]
Tang Chuanwen waved his hands repeatedly. He didn't dare to call himself a big boss in front of his father.
Seeing that his son didn't mind, Tang Chao became interested and glanced at the tripod in the corner.
Tang Xiaobao was so smart that he stood up and helped to get the stand. He had been on camera before, so he didn't care whether he would be exposed or not. So he placed the stand steadily behind his parents without any instructions from the adults.
The nanny usually secretly fantasized about becoming famous on the Internet one day, but she didn't expect that the old man in the family was a big V with millions of fans. She was so excited that her face turned red, and she felt uneasy but excited at the same time.
She even stood up, adjusted her collar and hair, and took out her lipstick and applied a thin layer.
The fat wife covered her mouth and laughed: Sister, you... are too dramatic, hahaha!
