Longzhou Calendar, 1779, January 3rd

Even though the New Year’s Eve and the Spring Festival were celebrated at the clan’s ancestral hall, Xu Shuhui still organised a private family gathering from a traditional perspective.

In this gathering, there were no servants. There were only five members of the family, cooking a genuine reunion dinner.

Tang Sen was responsible for handling the animals, including skinning them, draining the blood, and breaking them down into chunks.

Tang Luo and Tang Xing were responsible for delivering these ingredients to their mother, who was at the stove-front.

Even Nuan Nuan, the youngest, was asked to wash the vegetables and pick out the undesirable ones with a small basin.

But honestly, Tang Luo felt that the most difficult time of the year is when it came to this reunion dinner, because their mother, Xu Shuhui’s cooking skills were, truthfully, quite ordinary.

Due to the increased quantity of each plate of food from Tang Sen’s presence, Xu Shuhui’s grasp of the seasoning intensity always seemed less than satisfactory—it was either too salty or too bland.

However, since the ingredients themselves were extremely nourishing and tasty, even when a subpar chef worked with them, the food could still be palatable, despite its ugly appearance.

Because Tang Sen would always finish all the food at once, Xu Shuhui felt that her cooking was exceptional, and she proudly declared that she made different dishes every year.

After an afternoon’s work, the family’s first meal was finally ready and laid out in the dining hall.

Looking at the table full of mouth-watering dishes, Xu Shuhui seemed completely intoxicated. She clapped her hands to attract everyone’s attention and said, “It’s a new year again. Luo Er has started his business, Tang Xing has also started practicing martial arts, and even Little Nuan Nuan will start her Foundation Building next year. Make your New Year’s wishes.”
