Chapter 340: Staying up All Night

In front of the kang table, the sour and sweet taste of the wine quickly conquered them.

After eating some dumplings, Han Li began to deal with the dishes on the table. He tasted each dish first.

The braised hairtail was delicate, tender, and salty.

The chicken stewed with mushrooms used the old hen bought by He Mi, and the combination was all soaked hazel mushrooms, which tasted quite good.

The pot-fried pork was a little longer out of the pot, so the taste was quite satisfactory.

The braised spareribs were really just braised, with only the pickled shepherd's purse lumps cut into shreds at home. Although simple, it was very satisfying to eat.

Needless to say, the chili fried venison was the work of Qi Zhaodi. This fried venison was almost fried into dry-fried shredded pork by her, but it tasted dry, crispy, soft, and spicy, and it was very good with rice.

The fried four-happiness meatballs were a full pot of meatballs. Today, on the New Year's Day, they gave them the name of four-happiness.

These meatballs are made of mashed tofu and pork, chicken meatballs, venison meatballs, and two kinds of vegetarian meatballs, shredded radish and mushrooms. In short, each of these meatballs may give you a different taste.

All the meat in the Northeastern stew was neutralized by sauerkraut, and it tasted quite good.

The most eye-catching one is the Feilong soup, which is fresh and delicious.

Yun Jingjing said that the whole process of making it cannot be oily at all, so the iron pot and basin at home were washed several times to prevent other flavors from affecting the original freshness of the Feilong soup.

When Han Li was tasting these delicacies, He Mi put down his chopsticks, looked at everyone, and said in a gentle tone.

"It's boring to just eat and drink, how about we play a game?"

"Okay, sister He, what game should we play?"

"There are five of us, how about we play the game of passing the flower with the drum? Everyone takes turns to beat the drum, and whoever loses can drink, sing, tell jokes, in short, do whatever makes you happy, but you can't repeat what you did last time."

He Mi's proposal was quickly approved by everyone, and Yun Jingjing took out a shuttlecock (sandbag) made of cloth.

Everyone was very enthusiastic, so they had a lot of fun playing the game of passing the flower with the drum.

The losers sang, danced, drank, and told jokes, but here they showed their knowledge.

The first person who fainted was Qi Zhaodi. Although she has been studying hard since she came here, some things can't be followed just by saying it. She said with red cheeks and big tongue.

"I'll go to the toilet and come back to continue."

She got off the kang, put on her shoes, and walked out staggeringly, talking as she walked.

"This sweet wine is really strong."

"Are you okay, little sister Qi?"

"I'm fine. People say that drunk people can't walk in a straight line. I'll walk in a straight line for everyone to see."

Seeing Qi Zhaodi standing unsteadily, Yun Jingjing immediately went down to support her.

"I just happened to go to the toilet too. Let's go together."

Seeing the two of them walking outside, Han Li put the sandbag in his hand aside and said.

"Let's slow down a bit. It doesn't matter if we eat the dumplings after twelve o'clock and play until dawn."

"Brother Li, let's let little sister Qi have half when she comes back."

Unlike Yun Yingying who immediately followed Han Li's words, He Mi smiled and nodded when she heard it.

.

At this time at Zhang Dagang's house, Zhang Chaomei and her mother were now worried about how to tell the head of the family about this matter.

To be honest, since Zhang Ganying got married, maybe he was in high spirits because of the happy event, or maybe he had fulfilled a wish, so Zhang Dagang's health seemed to be better than before. At least now his coughing and wheezing were lighter than before, and the number of times he took medicine was reduced a lot.

But the more this happened, the more they dared not speak up. But they had to keep this a secret. If their son and daughter-in-law didn't come to kowtow and wish a happy new year tomorrow, they would have no way to explain it.

The mother and daughter looked at each other in the outer room, and finally Zhang Chaomei stumbled out a solution.

"Mom, how about we tell my dad that we're going to arrest Gan Ying because of the last incident, and let him go out and hide for two days?"

"Hide? Where? At a relative's or friend's house? If we don't say it properly, your dad will immediately guess that we're lying to him."

"How about hiding in the mountains? There are club huts left by ginseng diggers in the deep, and semi-underground cellars left by those who hunt in the mountains. How about we say that Gan Ying and his wife hid there?"

"This."

.

After Yun Jingjing and the others came back, the game continued, but even though the progress had slowed down a lot, Qi Zhaodi put down the glass in her hand after a game and said something.

"Brother Han, I feel dizzy, I need to lie down for a while to recover."

After she finished speaking, she didn't give anyone else time to speak, she just lay down and fell asleep.

At this time, everyone else was dizzy, and their tongues were swollen.

Only Han Li used his rich story reserves to escape drinking again and again, and now he is the most sober among all.

"We started at around five o'clock. Now it's nine o'clock in the evening. This meal has already taken a long time. Clean up the table and you guys lie on the kang to relax. I'll call you to get up at twelve o'clock to make dumplings and set off firecrackers."

Yun Yingying shook her head, looked at the five people lying on the kang in her house, and said with a thick tongue.

"We're not drunk. Why don't we chat after we clean up?"

Han Li looked at Yun Yingying and guessed what she meant when she looked at the kang just now. He reached out and rubbed her head.

"You just need to have a good rest. I'll go and lie down on the bed over there in the bathroom for the same reason."

"But the bed is not heated by the Kang. How about we squeeze in."

"It's okay. I just need to lay down for a while. I'll just heat up the stove in the house."

Yun Jingjing went out with Qi Zhaodi for a while. After the cool breeze, she was in worse condition than her sister. After a few words of advice, she covered her head and stopped talking.

As for He Mi, who was helping Qi Zhaodi take off her cotton-padded jacket and cover herself with quilt, she did not participate in this topic.

After Han Li comforted Yun Yingying, he didn't let anyone else help because they were all unsteady, so helping would probably be a disservice.

Han Li directly moved the kang table to the outhouse and put all other things on the table outside. Anyway, it would not be too late to clean up these things later when they wake up.

After doing this, Han Li filled the fire pit with firewood, replaced the brazier with new charcoal, pinched Yun Yingying's face, and then headed to the bathroom with the quilt in his arms.

At this time, only the faint light came from the lantern pole in the yard, allowing people to vaguely see a small area in the yard, and the rest of the place was pitch black.

Han Li went to the bathroom, turned on the lights and lit the stove. In order to make himself more comfortable, he also moved the bed very close to the stove and pulled the light bulb cord to the bedside.

After doing all this, Han Li took off his cotton-padded jacket and trousers and got into bed. Maybe it was because he was slightly tipsy, which made him a little excited. Even after turning off the light, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

So Han Li turned on the light again, took out a book and read it under the quilt.

On the kang in the north room, Yun Jingjing and Qi Zhaodi were already asleep.

Only Yun Yingying was still holding He Mi's hand and talking. He Mi's drinking capacity was obviously stronger than theirs. Although she was a little drunk, she was still relatively clear-headed. At this moment, she kept echoing Yun Yingying's words.

However, under the influence of alcohol, Yun Yingying's speaking speed became slower and slower.

I don't know how much time passed, but He Mi heard Yun Yingying's even breathing. He pushed her gently and found that she had fallen asleep.

He turned around and pushed Yun Jingjing again. She also didn't have much of a reaction. She just grunted and said nothing.

After He Mi lay down and looked at the dark roof, various pictures kept popping up in his mind.

From the first day she met Han Li, the two of them went to the mountains to get into danger together, and she refused the other person's request for a romantic partner.

Later, Han Li and Yun Yingying got together, and Han Li's various behaviors later confirmed that he was indeed blind at the beginning.

He Mi regretted it so much now, she murmured to herself in a voice not much louder than a mosquito.

"Grandma, I think I have missed the most suitable time. I regretted it countless times later. Originally, I should have found a way to get it back according to your instructions, but the current situation does not allow me to do so.

Didn’t you say that there is no such thing as the best of both worlds? You can't have your cake and eat it too. I think I've already missed it once, so I don't want to make the same mistake again.

Moreover, he is getting better and better. If it continues, I am afraid that he will be farther and farther away from me, so I want to entrust myself to him while he still has me in his heart.

Although this road is the second worst road you said, I believe in my feelings during this period, and, grandma, you will definitely bless me, right? "

After He Mi murmured to herself, the look on her face gradually became firmer. She checked the time and pushed them one by one, then she got up and walked out gently.

He Mi's heartbeat was beating like a drum at the moment. Although he had a few brief contacts with Han Li in the past, they were all superficial and completely different from the current situation.

He Mi had spent most of her strength walking from the kang to the outer room. She gritted her teeth and opened the door. Seeing the lights still on in the bathroom, she took a deep breath to gradually calm down. .

Then he stepped out resolutely and walked towards the bright room with firm steps.

Han Li was lying on the bed reading a book when he suddenly heard the bathroom door being pushed open. One thought in his mind was that Yun Jingjing was here, because she did act a little crotchless today, but he didn't expect to turn around and look at her. He Mi stood at the door with a blushing face.

"Han Li."

When Han Li saw He Mi, he came out of bed and greeted her with concern.

"It's so cold now. Why did you come out without even wearing a coat? Come over here and get some heat."

But he seemed to have forgotten that he was wearing a three-hole vest and large pants, which made He Mi blush even more.
