Chapter 483 472. New Year's Eve (35)
It is very difficult to play fireworks in New Zealand, and there are few opportunities to see fireworks, because this country pays great attention to environmental protection, and the air pollution caused by fireworks and firecrackers is very serious.
In a year, the only chance for Little Lolita to play with fireworks is the Fireworks Festival, which is a traditional British festival. The time is November 5th every year, and fireworks can be set off four days before and after. And even during these four days, it is not possible to put it anywhere, you have to go to a designated place.
New Zealand's fireworks festival commemorates the historic event of the 'Gunpowder Plot', a small group of Catholic rebels who plotted in British history to blow up the Houses of Parliament in Westminster, London, while the King was meeting to discuss Catholic reform matters.
However, the plot leaked, a guard spotted Guy Fawkes in the Capitol crypt, surrounded by barrels of explosives, and the plot was foiled.
In fact, this is a very cruel festival. According to Wang Bo's knowledge, Guy Fawkes, who was tortured in that historical event, confessed everything. As a result, those who conspired to rebel were arrested and punished as traitors according to the law at that time, and all were sentenced to be hanged and dismembered.
In November last year, Haney suggested that he hold a small town fireworks festival, but Wang Bo refused, thinking that it was not an opportunity to celebrate.
He reads the news that when Britain and New Zealand celebrate this festival, they will make a "Guy" - fill a dummy with old clothes, and then put it on the bonfire and burn it. The dummy was filled with fireworks, and finally, when the gorgeous fireworks went off, everyone began to celebrate...
Speaking of this, China is much better. Fireworks commemorate happy historical events.
This time Wang Bo bought it for Little Lolita to prepare for New Year's Eve.
On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, we routinely visit the ancestors' graves.
There are not many people in the old Wang family. There are still many people in Wang Bo’s generation. There are five brothers and four sisters in total. But when there was a war, all five brothers except his grandfather participated in the war. In the end, there was no news of them all. .
Grandpa Wang Bo and four sisters were left. The sisters were married, and after two generations they had no contact with each other. His grandfather had only two sons, and Wang Bo had a younger uncle who died in his youth.
In this way, from his grandfather to him, although the three generations are not a single pass, they are no different from a single pass.
After entering the ancestral grave, Wang Bo kowtowed to his grandfather. His father hung up firecrackers, burned incense and said, "Father, I brought Xiaobo to see you and mother. Xiaobo is developing very well now. I brought them back, today I will take you back to see your daughter-in-law, you and my mother will bless their little couple in heaven."
After finishing speaking, Bo's father had tears in the corners of his eyes.
Wang Bo has no impression of his grandparents. Before he was born, his grandpa passed away and died in the sea. But according to Bo's father, the old man was very kind to him and Bo's mother during his lifetime, and his only wish was to have a grandson.
Bo mother takes Eva to cook at home. Eva is full of spirituality in other places. She has no talent in cooking. She can cut vegetables and meat, but when adding seasonings, there are either too many or not enough.
Little Lolita was happily holding fireworks and waiting for the evening to cool off. When she saw her sister cooking, she suddenly panicked and ran in and said, "Auntie, auntie, don't let my sister cook. She has scales, timers, Thermometers, measuring cups, and measuring spoons are all bad..."
Eva stared at her with murderous eyes, little Lori pouted, and ran away again holding the fireworks.
In fact, the beautiful teacher wants to show off her baking skills, but she has no tools and no chance to show it off!
When Wang Bo and Bo Dad came back, five cold seafood dishes were served: Crispy Fish, Eggplant in Seafood Sauce, Appetizer Fish Fillet, Conch with Bitter Chrysanthemum and Walnuts, Raw Marinated Shrimp with Garlic.
The strong man was circling around the table, and when he saw Wang Bo coming back, he quickly lowered his head, pretending to be looking for something on the ground, but when Wang Bo picked up a piece of crispy fish, the corner of his mouth still dripped down.
When Dad Bo changed his clothes, he said with a smile: "This dog is a bit funny, it starts drooling without looking at it, does it smell that you picked up the fish?"
Wang Bo fed it to the strong man and said, "No, it saw my movements from the corner of my eye."
The next few hot dishes are also ready, very simple dishes, boiled shrimp, steamed crab, yellow croaker stewed tofu, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, and iron pot miscellaneous fish. There are small catfish in the miscellaneous fish, which means there is still a surplus every year.
Wang Bo peeled a crab for Bo's mother, but Bo's mother blocked him halfway, and motioned him to give it to Eva with her eyes. Wang Bo smiled and said, "Eva only eats crab paste, you can eat this, Yi and I Let's work together to eat the back."
The little Lolita was gobbling up, and the wind was raging. Father Bo touched her little head distressedly, and said, "I'm starving Dai'er."
Dai'er choked, rolled her eyes and said, "No, Dai'er wants to set off fireworks after eating..."
Wang Bo prepared fruit for the army commander, and brought the fat cat and the strong man to the dining table. Bo's father said that the cat and the dog would be served at the table, and Wang Bo said that we are a family.
Eva helped him explain, saying: "He was with the young man when he first went to New Zealand. He had no friends at that time, and the young man was his family."
Hearing what his daughter-in-law said, Bo's mother felt sorry for Wang Bo, saying that you are really too lonely in a foreign country.
Wang Bo laughed: "It's okay, I won't be alone this year. After the new year, you hand over the boat and cold storage to Dabao and the others, and you follow me to New Zealand."
Father Bo resolutely refused, Wang Bo said first: "You must go, you will come back when the weather is warmer, this time you go to avoid the limelight, who knows if Lengsi has any friends and brothers outside?"
Bo's mother ate the food and said: "Alright, let's go to Xiaobo's place to live for a while, and wait until the matter of Lengsi is over."
"I'm done eating!" Little Loli put down her fork, grabbed a handful of Sky-Speeding Monkeys and ran out.
The strong man was also full, so he went out to play with him, but not long after he went out, he ran back quickly, whining and panicking.
Wang Bo can guess it with his knees, it must be the little loli frightening it with fireworks.
After he came back, the strong man rushed to his feet, put his head between his legs, and kept whining, his voice was aggrieved.
Bo's mother asked Wang Bo to go out to accompany the little girl. It is too dangerous to play fireworks alone, especially for children of a few years old.
As soon as Wang Bo went out, a sky-scurrying monkey screamed and screamed.
The strong man who was following him turned around and ran away. Brother Fat Cat was still behind, Er Pang was behind him, and was knocked away by it.
Er Pang got up very dissatisfied and yelled at the strong man's back. When it turned around, the big fat knocked it over again, and then ran away...
"Woohoo!" Big Fatty yelled dissatisfiedly. When it turned around, a sky-swapping monkey flew towards it and exploded on its ass.
Immediately, Big Fatty also started to flee like a wolf, rolling and crawling, jumping and jumping, running so fast!
