Chapter 354
It was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month when Yu Jiaojiao and the others returned to Zhaojiacun. The shadow of Premier Zou's death had dissipated, but except for children, not many adults could really laugh out loud.
Nowadays, the amount of public food paid is very high, and the food distributed to every household is actually not enough to eat.
In addition to being able to eat a full meal on New Year's Eve, most people usually boil some corn crumbs or other grain crumbs. When the food is really not enough, the cooked porridge is so thin that people can be seen, which is also jokingly called For the soup to take care of your face, it¡¯s all about coaxing your belly.
"Compared to many ordinary families, Zhao Pengcheng's family has been the most prosperous in many years.
When I get home, I clean it inside and out again, stick some cypress branches on the door, and put them on the door bolt. It feels like that this year.
On the 29th, Zhao Pengcheng went to Yujia Village to deliver the New Year's gift to the Yu family, and came back without any trouble.
Knowing that they probably wouldn¡¯t have time to make anything, Yu¡¯s mother made six multi-grain steamed buns for Zhao Pengcheng, which also contained dried red bean and persimmon fillings.
During the Chinese New Year, in addition to dumplings, we eat steamed buns.
Cooking or other things, I don¡¯t have that condition.
In the evening, Zhao Pengcheng took his children to the village chief's house and gave them the New Year's gift to the village chief's family.
The village chief didn¡¯t expect to receive anything from his house, so he was a little in a hurry. The village chief¡¯s wife simply sent a bowl of pickled vegetables and a pack of sun-dried shredded radish, pumpkin slices, beans, and the like.
The village party secretary also has the same etiquette.
It¡¯s not that he deliberately went through the back door to establish a relationship or anything. With the current conditions of Zhao Pengcheng¡¯s family living in the city, there is absolutely no need to do this.
The reason why Zhao Pengcheng did this was to thank the two for helping their mother Zhao when she was making trouble.
¡ª¡ªWithout the divorce letter created by these two people, the relationship between Zhao Pengcheng and the old Zhao family would not be so clean.
On New Year¡¯s Eve, things at home were basically settled, so the four children had nothing to do in the afternoon so they pestered Yu Jiaojiao and Zhao Pengcheng to make lanterns.
Normally, you should play with lanterns during the Lantern Festival, but as a kid, you want to play with them on New Year¡¯s Eve.
Now I don¡¯t have the conditions to buy lanterns, so I can only make them myself.
Yu Jiaojiao then realized that before returning, Zhao Pengcheng went to a state-owned store to buy tissue paper and red paper. The red paper was for people to write couplets on, and the tissue paper was of course used to tie lanterns for children.
Yu Jiaojiao was a little speechless, a little funny, and a little excited: "This is really, I, I haven't made a lantern yet. What should we do?"
Well, she is still looking forward to it.
Zhao Pengcheng took out the fine sorghum stalks that he had soaked just after he came back: "Can you make it with this?"
Yu Jiaojiao was speechless and looked at him angrily: "They say I haven't done it before, how could I do it? Just use this to do it? How to do it?"
Zhao Pengcheng has prepared quite a few things, including thin sorghum stalks, white thread, and scissors: "Just use this to make the skeleton. I haven't done it before. I just watched others do it. Let's give it a try."
Yu Jiaojiao fully cooperated.
When she became a social worker, children in kindergarten had handicraft classes, and every child would make lanterns when the Chinese New Year was approaching.
But Yu Jiaojiao was not so lucky.
There were no such courses in kindergarten when she was young. When she grew up, her handicrafts had turned into painting and working with various fabrics. Even if she occasionally made lanterns, they were made of cloth and were flat. It's for decoration, not so you can light candles inside.
The lanterns she had when she was a child were all made of paper that her mother bought for two yuan for her. If the lanterns were tilted, they would be completely burned.
The highest record: Yu Jiaojiao burned five such paper lanterns during the Chinese New Year!
After the fifth one burned out, her mother refused to buy any more for her.
There are many other fancy lanterns and plastic lanterns online, but do the ones you can look at and the ones you make by yourself feel the same?
¡°If Zhao Pengcheng says he hasn¡¯t done it, he really hasn¡¯t done it.
During the year when he took care of the children alone, he was exhausted from just eating and drinking for the five of him. He couldn't even think about toys like this.
Conditions are more generous this year, otherwise we would not even think about it.
Yu Jiaojiao sat on a stool next to her to watch what Zhao Pengcheng was doing. Four children also gathered around and refused to leave.
So Yu Jiaojiao and the four children watched Zhao Pengcheng holding the sorghum pole, cutting the length first, and working together with the rope and scissors, it didn't take long to make it.? A lantern skeleton.
Yu Jiaojiao looked at the lantern skeleton and her eyes widened.
This, this, isn¡¯t this just like the Eight Treasure Pimples!
Seeing that Zhao Pengcheng was preparing to do the second prick, Yu Jiaojiao hurriedly said: "Are you still going to do this kind of prick? Why don't you change it to another one?"
Zhao Pengcheng was a little confused: "Don't tie this kind of lantern? Do you want to tie that kind of round lantern? The kind that is difficult to tie without bamboo strips."
He also made large round lanterns in the army. It is not difficult to make such lanterns, but the bamboo strips are hard to find and you have to split them yourself.
They don¡¯t produce bamboo here, so of course it¡¯s easier to make this kind of thing.
""
Yu Jiaojiao didn¡¯t know there were so many things to pay attention to when making a lantern.
Yu Jiaojiao looked at the lantern skeleton made by Zhao Pengcheng and was a little eager to try: "How about me, I try too?"
My hands are so itchy!
Want to do it!
The four children shouted: "Do it, do it, make it look good."
"Make it better-looking than what daddy makes!"
Zhao Zhihong shouted: "I am a girl, I want my mother to do it!"
Yuan Guomin hesitated for a moment: "I, I am a boy, and I want my mother to do it too!"
! ! !
Yu Jiaojiao suddenly felt Alexander.
¡°No, no, try, I¡¯ll try, I¡¯m not sure whether I can do it well or not.¡±
"must be able to!"
The child has a better temperament than her.
Zhao Pengcheng grabbed a handful of sorghum stalks and handed it to her: "Try it!"
Yu Jiaojiao didn¡¯t plan to make the same eight-treasure lantern as Zhao Pengcheng. She thought it was too difficult. She wanted to make a simple version of the hexagonal palace lantern.
Cough.
This kind of thing is very simple to make.
Cut twelve short sticks of the same length and tie them with thread to form two hexagons. Add a longer stick to each of the six corners and tie them with rope. It¡¯s very simple.
It¡¯s too complicated, like a goldfish or a rabbit lantern, really, I just dare to think about it.
When Yu Jiaojiao tied up her hexagonal palace lantern, she saw Zhao Pengcheng making the skeleton of the third eight-treasure lantern. With the one in her hand, there were exactly four.
Yu Jiaojiao excitedly took out the tissue paper and the remaining paste from pasting the couplets: "I'll paste the paper."
Hexagonal palace lanterns are easy to paste when papering. Just stick a large piece directly to each pillar of the skeleton. Eight-treasure lanterns are more troublesome. You have to cut them into small pieces and paste them one by one.
When Yu Jiaojiao was pasting the lantern paper, Zhao Pengcheng made the base of the lantern.
The base is done and the lantern is finished.
Yu Jiaojiao looked at the white lantern and frowned: "Why is it so ugly?"
It¡¯s so white that if you don¡¯t know, you might think his family is having a funeral.
There happened to be some red paper left, so Yu Jiaojiao cut some very simple paper-cut flowers out of the red paper and pasted them on.
When they were doing it, the four children didn¡¯t even dare to breathe, let alone reach out and touch it.
The tissue paper is too soft, and if you accidentally poke a hole in it, they will cry if the new lantern is punctured before it is even lit.
When the paper-cut paintings were all pasted up, the four children were immediately amazed.
They all held their faces in their hands and looked at the lanterns with stars on their faces: "It's so beautiful!"
"so beautiful!"
¡°Mine is the best looking!¡±
¡°Mine is the prettiest one!¡±
"mine!"
"mine!"
"My, my, my, my!"
Seeing that the four children were about to start a fight, Zhao Pengcheng immediately coughed, and the children suddenly fell silent.
Yu Jiaojiao couldn¡¯t laugh or cry: ¡°Okay, okay, okay, let¡¯s go and compare with other children. Just see whose child¡¯s lantern is the best?¡±
We make lanterns every year for the holidays.
The Eight Treasure Lanterns are the lanterns that my relatives put up for me when I was a child! It¡¯s very beautiful. A lantern skeleton can be used for several years. Just paste new paper on it during the Chinese New Year.
I made the hexagonal palace lantern with four corners. Later, I used a wine box to walk around it. Now I make it with colored paper. It is small and only has a nice hanging one, without lighting the lantern.
I don¡¯t know whether children in that era actually played with lanterns. This is a memory I had when I was a child. I wanted to write it down and share it with everyone.
So don¡¯t tell me that I didn¡¯t have a lantern at that time, I didn¡¯t care, I just wanted to write! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
