New Year's Eve is the most important festival in China. On this day, families gather together to celebrate the wonderful festival. The courtyard rarely had a civilized atmosphere today. Jia Zhang's broken mouth could still say a few words today, and Liu Haizhong also put down his stick.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the four brothers and sisters Zhang Zhifei gathered around the stove and ate melon seeds to watch the New Year.
The custom of keeping the year old includes not only a feeling of nostalgia for the passing years, but also a good hope for the coming New Year.
The ancients wrote in a poem "Shou Sui": "We invite the Ajong family to keep the year old, and the wax torch passes red to the blue gauze. Thirty and sixty years have passed by, but I cherish my years from this night." It is human nature to cherish the years.
Su Shi, a layman from Dongpo, one of the Eight Great Masters of the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote a famous line in "Keeping the New Year's Eve": "There will be no time next year, and worries will be wasted; if you work hard today, you can still be proud of your youth!" This shows the positive significance of keeping the year old on New Year's Eve.
The time was spent chatting between the four siblings, but Zhang Zhifei's attention was not on the chat. After 12 o'clock on New Year's Eve, he could check in.
If the system hadn't prompted him at night, he would have almost forgotten that he even had a sign-in system, which shows how lazy his system is.
The only old alarm clock in the house, the hands moved slowly, and Zhang Zhifei's heart also moved. Finally, it was almost 12 o'clock, and the system had started counting down.
"The three of you are chatting for now. The eldest brother is a little sleepy. Go and take a nap for a while." Zhang Zhifei found an excuse, stood up and left the stove.
His younger brother and sister were having fun with melon seeds and peanuts at the moment and were not interested in his departure. Zhang Zhifei excused himself and sat down on the bed to sign in.
"Ding, the sign-in system has been refreshed, please sign in!"
"Sign in!" Zhang Zhifei said silently in his heart, and prayed to the gods and Buddhas in the sky to bless him and obtain high-quality rewards.
"Ding, please receive the sign-in gift package!" The system's voice was still so mechanical and unpleasant, but to Zhang Zhifei's ears, it sounded more beautiful than any music.
Zhang Zhifei couldn't wait to open it silently, and the three rewards he had received were displayed on the sign-in panel.
The first is primary medical skills, memorize the general medical skills of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and is at the level of the attending doctor.
The second is primary appraisal skills, antiques, culture and art appraisal, and the level of antique bosses.
The third is ten natural hybrid rice strains suitable for hybridization.
Zhang Zhifei was afraid that his younger brothers and sisters would break in, so he closed the door and started to receive the sign-in reward.
First, he clicked to receive the basic medical skills, and a series of medical knowledge suddenly came to his mind. Various cases flashed through his mind, allowing him to suddenly have the level of an attending doctor and be able to conduct independent consultations.
After that, he received the primary identification technique, which covers everything from ancient times to the present, from the middle to the west.
His current level may not be comparable to that of a great master of Chinese studies in any single field, but in terms of broad knowledge, he is probably unrivaled, especially since the identification technique also carries some historical knowledge, making his knowledge even more profound.
Finally, there are 10 hybrid rice strains suitable for experiments, which Zhang Zhifei values most.
As long as the experiment is successful, the country's rice production can increase by about 40%, which will save countless lives.
Moreover, the system is very user-friendly this time. Zhang Zhifei can specify the planting location, so that he does not have to think about how to find excuses to take out the rice plants.
Zhang Zhifei made arrangements in his mind that 10 hybrid rice plants would grow near Anjiang Agricultural School this spring and show up to meet Teacher Yuan.
With this arrangement, he no longer has to worry about this matter. With Teacher Yuan in charge, he has nothing to worry about.
Zhang Zhifei is very satisfied with the three newly obtained rewards. Although his own system is lazy, the signed items and skills are very good.
Today's medical conditions are backward, and having the medical skills of the attending doctor or a general practitioner can avoid accidents to a great extent.
The primary identification technique is also what he wants. He is about to enter a special decade. How many national treasures will be destroyed. With this technique, he can collect some works of art. When he waits for the new world, he can just take out a few pieces and it will be a small Target.
After receiving all the rewards, Zhang Zhifei felt the usefulness of the new knowledge in his mind. Too much new knowledge made his head feel swollen, and he fell asleep in bed after a while.
After sleeping until about five o'clock in the morning, Zhang Zhifei felt relieved, hurriedly put on thick clothes, got up and went to the stove.
The younger brothers and sisters are still keeping watch, but they are all yawning.
"Brother, you've had enough sleep!" Zhang Zhiguo handed him a handful of melon seeds.
Zhang Zhifei smiled and replied: "Sleep well, you go and take a nap quickly, my brother is calling you when the meal is ready."
Zhang Zhiguo stretched out his hands and said, "Brother, didn't you find that something is missing?"
"I know, I can't do without you." He said and took out three red envelopes from his pocket.
"Lili, Zhiguo, Qianqian, big brother wishes you a Happy New Year!" He said and handed the red envelopes to the three of them one by one.
"Oh! One dollar. You are so kind, brother." Zhang Qianqian, the younger sister, said excitedly.
Zhang Zhifei said with a smile: "Without this dollar, your brother would be in trouble?"
"It's all good." Zhang Qianqian chuckled.
Zhang Zhiguo and the other two took the red envelopes and went to rest, while Zhang Zhifei himself took a management book and sat by the stove to read.
After a while, it was already bright, and people in the courtyard started to set off firecrackers. Zhang Zhifei put down his books and went out to set off a bunch of firecrackers.
When I got home, I added coal to the stove, sat on the pot, and boiled water for cooking.
This morning is a traditional meal in the north, dumplings in powder soup. Zhang Zhifei first made roasted meatballs in powder soup, and then cooked the dumplings made yesterday.
"Zhiguo, Lili, Qianqian, get up and eat." Zhang Zhifei picked up the dumplings in the pot while shouting into the room.
The three of them knew that they were going to eat dumplings this morning and would wake up as soon as they were called. Now it is very difficult to have a meal of dumplings.
"Brother, did you put coins in the dumplings?" Zhang Zhiguo asked while eating the dumplings.
Zhang Zhifei said with a smile: "It's guaranteed, whoever eats it belongs to whoever eats it."
Eating dumplings on the first day of the first lunar month, wash the coins and wrap them in the dumplings. Anyone who eats dumplings with coins indicates that this year will be smooth sailing and wealth will be abundant.
When I heard that it was wrapped with coins, my younger brother Zhang Zhiguo ate faster. Unfortunately, it depends on luck. My younger sister Zhang Qianqian ate the slowest, and she ended up eating both coins.
Even Zhang Zhifei is envious of him, not to mention Zhang Zhiguo, he is so sour and cute.
The little girl Zhang Qianqian put away the two five-cent coins with a smile.
"Qianqian, just tell me what your second brother has done to you?" Zhang Zhiguo began to lie.
"Average." Zhang Qianqian, the younger sister, said concisely and concisely.
Zhang Zhiguo almost choked while eating dumplings and stared blankly at the little girl who was acting out of common sense.
"Little sister, you are so hurtful." Zhang Zhiguo said after swallowing the dumplings in his mouth.
"I don't want to hurt you, but you want my money." Zhang Qianqian said without raising her head.
The conversation between the two made Zhang Zhifei very happy and added a bit of joy to the festival.
After breakfast, their hospital will hold a group meeting. The people who will host the meeting are probably three deposed uncles. Apart from the three of them, there are no other suitable candidates.
People of Zhang Zhifei's age group are unable to get into the job. The rest of the elderly either have no jobs and low social status, resulting in no one to choose, and they themselves have no intention of managing everything in the hospital.
After counting and counting, it finally landed on the three of them. Zhang Zhifei estimated that this was also one of their goals. He didn't know if he had other ideas.
