Chapter 1148 Happy New Year

Inner city.

Li Yu didn't catch Li Suxin to go to the classroom to do homework, and the little girl ran away halfway.

Li Yu smiled and shook his head and returned to the residence.

In the yard.

He saw his grandfather holding a big brush and writing on red paper.

Li Yu stood beside him, quietly without saying a word, watching his grandfather write on the red paper:

"Upper couplet: The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold

Lower couplet: Willow catkins float with the warm sun

Horizontal banner: Peace every year"

Grandpa's calligraphy is very good, with strong strokes and the font looks very thick.

After writing one, grandpa looked up and saw Li Yu, and said with a smile:

"Xiaoyu, you write one."

Li Yu said a little embarrassedly: "My handwriting is ugly, and it doesn't look good."

"Come on, try."

Grandpa handed the brush over, and Li Yu had no choice but to step forward and take it.

Standing in front of the table, Li Yu thought for a long time before he started writing.

"The sky opens a new year, and people change the old world."

Li Yu's handwriting is not ugly. When he was a child, he won the finalist award in the county-level primary school calligraphy competition.

After many hardships, Li Yu's handwriting has added a sense of vicissitudes.

As the lord of the big camphor tree base, he has some momentum, which makes this word written quite domineering, but it is not so beautiful.

"Grandpa, I have said that my handwriting is not good-looking." Li Yu looked at the crooked font and said embarrassedly.

Grandpa smiled and said: "When you were a child, I asked you to practice calligraphy, but you always ran to the next door to watch Tom and Jerry."

"But."

Grandpa looked carefully at Li Yu's handwriting.

He was quite impressed: "Although the font is not good-looking, it is also powerful. Not bad. You can copy it someday."

As he spoke, grandpa seemed to remember something.

This is the end of the world, and practicing calligraphy doesn't seem to have much meaning.

Li Yu was quick-witted. Seeing grandpa pause, he guessed something.

So he said, "Okay, it's a good opportunity to hone your patience and exercise."

Hearing Li Yu say this, grandpa also smiled.

"Not bad, it's good to hone your character."

Li Yu chatted with grandpa for a few more words here, and then left.

In the past, grandpa would be asked to write Spring Festival couplets every year.

He didn't charge a penny.

Before the end of the world, this kind of Spring Festival couplets, which were printed out, always felt a little less flavor, so many people liked to write them themselves, or find someone with good calligraphy to help write them.

Walking in the inner city.

Li Yu felt that the clothes he was wearing were a little hot.

Near noon, the temperature could reach ten degrees.

As the temperature rose, the trees buried in the snow in the distant mountains and forests, with scattered green, made people feel comfortable.

When walking through the cafeteria, Li Yu smelled a strong meaty aroma.

White mist was steaming in the open air.

A large pot as high as a person was steaming beef bones.

The beef soup was snow-white and was bubbling.

Li Yu smelled the meaty aroma and felt a little hungry.

At this moment, Li Yu smelled a faint, somewhat sweet aroma of wine again.

Smelling the aroma of wine, he walked forward a few steps.

He found that in a small pit, some large jars with sealed openings were burning with weeds.

The weeds were still burning, and sparks were flying.

The smell of rice wine in the ceramic jars was wafting out.

Li Yu was really greedy after smelling it.

Looking at Aunt Zhou who was busy beside him, he said:

"Aunt Zhou, please help me get a pot of wine, I'll try it first."

After hearing what Li Yu said, Aunt Zhou said:

"City Lord, this wine is a bit overbearing."

Li Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, give me a pot."

Aunt Zhou hesitated for a while, but still got a pot for Li Yu.

A pot of wine is about one pound.

Li Yu watched Aunt Zhou scoop out the hot rice wine with a gourd spoon.

The beige wine looks delicious.

Seeing this rice wine, Li Yu thought of Wu Song fighting the tiger in Water Margin.

There was no distillation technology in that era, and the lees were mentioned in Water Margin.

So it is very likely this kind of rice wine.

Eighteen bowls.

Tsk tsk.

Li Yu carried the wine pot and wandered in the inner city. If he was not the city lord, he might be seen as a little gangster who did nothing all day in the eyes of others.

Holding the wine, Li Yu was really greedy.

So he picked up the wine pot and poured it into his mouth.

It was slightly sweet, not intoxicating, easy to drink, smooth, and with some warmth.

Hey!

After a sip of wine, Li Yu was in a very happy mood.

People came and went, all busy with the New Year's affairs.

There was only one thing to celebrate the New Year in the big camphor tree base in the end of the world.

Eat! Drink!

After drinking, he turned around and returned to the residential area.

The cannon came towards him.

Seeing Li Yu so cool, Da Pao said:

"Brother Yu, why did you drink first?"

Li Yu was sober and said with a smile: "It's just rice wine, not much alcohol, just drink it to satisfy your craving."

Da Pao looked at the wine pot in Li Yu's hand and said with some greed:

"Give me a sip."

Li Yu shook the wine pot and drank all the wine in it.

So he smiled and said: "No more, you have to go to Aunt Zhou to get some wine yourself."

Hearing this, Da Pao looked at Aunt Zhou in the distance and said: "Then I'll go."

After that, he ran towards Aunt Zhou.

"Aunt Zhou, is the alcohol content of this rice wine high?" Dapao said with some doubt after he came over.

Aunt Zhou saw Dapao, thought about it and a smile flashed in her eyes.

She answered: "Not high, I just brewed it."

Dapao felt that Aunt Zhou was right. How much alcohol can rice wine have?

So he said: "Give me two kilograms."

His tone was not small, and he said two kilograms at the beginning.

After hearing what Dapao said, Aunt Zhou poured him two kilograms without hesitation.

"This wine has no alcohol content."

Dapao took the rice wine and took a bowl directly.

Slurp---

He poured a full bowl.

Gulp.

Sweet and hot.

Comfortable!

Delicious.

It didn't feel like alcohol at all, just like a sweet drink.

So.

Dapao drank three more bowls.

He used a large bowl, and after three bowls, a kilogram and a half was gone.

After finishing the drink, he took the wine jug and wanted to have more.

Hmm?

Something is wrong.

Dapao felt a little dizzy.

But not particularly dizzy.

He was not a good drinker, and usually drank only half a catty of liquor.

So he looked at Aunt Zhou and asked doubtfully:

"Aunt Zhou, is this really not alcohol-free?"

Aunt Zhou said, "Hey, what alcohol can it be? I brewed it myself."

Dapao squinted and asked, "Why do I feel dizzy?"

Aunt Zhou smiled and said, "Just blow the wind."

"Oh."

Dapao felt right, so he walked up the mountain with the wine jug.

The mountain was windy.

Half an hour later.

Ding Jiu saw Dapao sleeping next to the ridge of the field, and walked over to pat him.

"Dapao, why are you sleeping in the field?"

"Dapao, wake up."

"Dapao?"

Ding Jiu looked at Dapao, who was sleeping like a dead pig, and saw the wine jug in his arms, opened it and smelled it.

He shook his head helplessly.

"Alas"

So someone was called to carry the cannon away.

At noon.

There was a white smoke in the inner and outer cities.

Steaming.

In the inner city.

In the open air.

All the tables in the cafeteria were moved out, and it felt a bit like a banquet.

Dozens of tables.

The total population of the inner city was only a few hundred.

So there was enough space.

On the dining table, there were huge plates.

Meatballs.

Braised pork with preserved vegetables.

Steamed pork with rice flour.

Tofu with shallots.

Eight dishes in total.

It was the most sumptuous banquet ever.

Li Yu almost laughed out loud when he saw the cannon carried away by Ding Jiu and his friends.

One after another, everyone sat down.

At this time.

Second uncle came in with a group of people.

Li Yu turned around and saw that it was the jackal, the ant, Lao Bi, Lao Luo and others.

Since Ju Tianrui, Xiao Jun, Dongtai and Lao Yi were not there, they were not present.

Although Wu Jianguo was not qualified to enter the inner city, Li Yu and his uncle discussed it and let him attend the banquet in the inner city.

After all, the special forces led by his uncle, Lao Qin, Ant, and Jackal all attended the banquet, but he was the only one missing, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

It was the first time for Ant to come in, and he led Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei jumped up and down, smelling the meat in the air, and was very excited.

"Xiao Hei, don't make noise." Ant scolded.

Xiao Hei was whimpering and a little aggrieved.

Li Yu stood up, walked in front of them, and then said, "Everyone, welcome to the banquet!"

Then he gestured to Li Hang who was not far away.

Li Hang quickly stood up and said to everyone, "Everyone, be quiet."

Everyone quieted down instantly.

Li Yu smiled and said to Lao Qin and the others, "Everyone, please follow me."

Lao Qin and Ant looked at each other, and then walked over with the others.

Walked to the center of the many dining tables.

Li Yu said loudly:

"Today, I have good news to announce."

Sitting at the dining table, Yang Tianlong looked at Jackal and the others, and he was also a little excited.

He had performed missions with Ant and the others. For such a capable senior figure, he was naturally happy to see them become members of the inner city.

Everyone was quiet and looked at Li Yu and Lao Qin and others behind him.

"What good news?" Li Hang made a proper joke.

Li Yu smiled and said:

"Today, these people behind me will officially join the inner city from today."

"The first one is Qin Tianle."

"Joined our Dazhangshu base for two years and played a great contribution in several operations."

Li Yu counted Qin Tianle's previous contributions, some of which Qin Tianle even forgot.

He didn't expect that there would be someone in the base to record this.

He was surprised and moved at the same time.

This means that what you have contributed, Dazhangshu base has always seen and remembered.

After Li Yu spoke eloquently, he gestured to Qin Tianle with a smile and asked him to come forward.

Qin Tianle was a little excited. Although he was quite comfortable in the outer city, he was somewhat yearning for the inner city.

He walked forward excitedly.

Li Yuan, who had already prepared the badge representing the camphor tree base, hurriedly dragged the plate over.

Li Yu took the badge from the plate and pinned it on Qin Tianle's chest.

Everyone applauded, but there was no sound.

Clap your hands together, but don't make any sound.

In the end times, avoiding making too much noise is the quality of every survivor.

Even with the current defense capabilities of the Camphor Tree Base, there is no need to worry about attracting zombies, but this habit is still preserved.

"Next, Chief Luo..."

Li Yu introduced everyone's contributions and achievements one by one, saying that this is to let people in the inner city know their contributions.

And also to tell Lao Qin and others that the base has not forgotten your contributions.

They all remember it.

Next to him, Wu Jianguo watched this exciting scene and was overwhelmed with emotions.

It's great.

It took about fifteen minutes for Li Yu to finish talking about everyone's achievements and awarded them the Camphor Tree Base badge.

Fifteen minutes later.

Li Yu raised his glass and said with a smile:

"Let's have a drink together, happy New Year! Thank you for your hard work!"

Everyone raised their glasses and congratulated the New Year.

Li Yu drank it all in one gulp, and then continued:

"Everyone must be hungry, so let's not waste any more time. I declare that the meal is ready!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone started eating!

Ant, Jackal and others sat at the same table with Yang Tianlong.

They were all happy.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Lao Qin was a little emotional.

Wu Jianguo was even more so. Looking at the bustle around him, he remembered the days in the northern border.

Although alive, but lacking a sense of fireworks.

And this sense of fireworks can always soothe people's hearts and make people not feel so lonely.

Let people always have a harbor in this doomsday.

Uncle San came over with a big bowl.

Pulled a stool and sat next to Lao Qin.

Smiled and said to his old friends:

"Brothers, let's not go home until we are drunk today."

"Hahahaha, drink!" Ant said nothing and filled the wine.

Clink glasses.

Everyone drank it all in one gulp.

The dogs on the ground were also happy.

Cuihua, Tiedan, and the little black dog raised by the ants were eating bones under the table, enjoying themselves.

This is the peak of the dog's life.
