New Year's Eve, Severodvinsk.

The queue to enter the Dragon Palace on the Sea meandered for several kilometers. There were more than a dozen self-service code verification channels and manual verification channels, but the entry speed was still quite slow.

Among the people queuing up, there were couples cuddling each other, gray-haired old people, and children who had just learned to walk.

Many of them came with their families.

After all, this is no ordinary concert, this is a branch venue of the "Spring Festival Gala".

The attendance of hundreds of thousands of people is already comparable to the population of a small city.

As the saying goes, "If there are tens of thousands of people, there are no boundaries." But this is not ten thousand, but hundreds of thousands.

It has exceeded the total population of 26 countries and regions in the world.

Even more than the local residents of Severodvinsk.

The Dragon Palace on the Sea stayed calmly on the ice-covered coast. At this time, it lit up with bright lights, and it looked more like it was carved from crystal.

On the outer wall of the Dragon Palace on the Sea, words were flashing on the big screen.

""Iceland Spring" Dragon Palace on the Sea 2021 Year of the Ox Spring Festival Gala Branch Venue."

The theme this time was highlighted, which is "Spring in the Icefield".

The white Dragon Palace on the Sea is also decorated with red lanterns at the gate, adding a lot of festive meaning to the Dragon Palace on the Sea.

In the corner of Dragon Palace on the sea, a "temporary business" sign has been hung on the door of Gu's Whole Sheep Hot Pot Restaurant, and inside the store, Gu Ping and his wife are busy.

"Lao Gu, is your mutton ready?"

"Isn't this what I'm talking about? By the way, where did you put those bottles of good wine I collected last time? Take them out quickly. I have to have a few glasses of wine with your brother and your brother-in-law tonight.

.”

"Didn't I just find this? Where did you put your own wine? You're asking me? If you drink, just drink! Besides, those are not my brother and my brother-in-law. I don't know where Xiaobai got them from.

Relatives..."

"Hey, it doesn't matter where the relatives are from. Since Xiaobai calls them uncle and aunt, you have to treat them well. Besides, isn't this the time of year when people are really nice to Xiaobai... Yes, it's just these few days.

Bottle of wine, you put it over there first and chop the stuffing!"

"Then hurry up and get the noodles out."

The couple were busy talking and bickering.

Not long after, the door clicked, and a person pushed the door open and walked in.

A smiling old man walked in.

"Uncle Gongshu, why are you here? Sit down and rest for a while." Gu Ping raised his head and said quickly.

I sighed again internally.

Another relative that Xiaobai found somewhere.

Like the previous relatives who appeared out of nowhere, their origins are really unknown, but for Xiaobai, that's really good.

It's good to take out your heart and lungs, but it's good to hold it in your hand for fear of falling off, and to hold it in your mouth for fear of melting.

Gu Ping can still tell whether a person treats Xiaobai well or not.

When this old man saw Xiao Bai, his eyes lit up with a smile.

What does Gu Xiaobai want to order? He wants to take out his heart and soul.

The other relatives were fine. They were uncles and uncles. It was normal if they didn't know each other. But this one was fine. Xiaobai just called him grandpa.

Logically speaking, Xiaobai's grandfather is my father.

But why don’t I recognize him?

If Gu Ping hadn't really taken Xiaobai for a paternity test, put a plastic seal on it, and took it out to look at every day, and also personally sent Xiaobai's grandfather away, I'm afraid he would have really doubted whether this person was a talented person.

He is Gu Xiaobai's biological grandfather.

But, this Gu Xiaobai's biological grandfather is not the father of Gu Xiaobai's other father.

What's that dad's name... By the way, Hua Yan.

Xiaobai also has a sister named Hua Zhongjun.

This girl is very popular with Gu Ping and his wife, who have always wanted a daughter.

This sister was so kind to Xiaobai, she wished she could help him wash his face.

Looking at Xiaobai, my younger brother, is like looking at my own child. You can never fake that kind of liking.

Seeing Hua Zhongjun taking care of Gu Xiaobai also made the couple feel inexplicably that they were very incompetent.

No wonder my son came back from outside looking for a lot of inexplicable relatives.

It's a good thing that the couple are both big-hearted people, otherwise they would really be so entangled that they couldn't sleep.

In their opinion, this was probably the godfather, godfather, goduncle, godgrandfather, etc. that Gu Xiaobai recognized.

All in all, this family has transformed from a simple family of three to an incredibly chaotic state.

And it shows an increasingly chaotic trend.

If any three aunts or six wives appear again, Gu Ping and his wife will take it indifferently and will not be surprised.

In fact, Gu Ping and Zhang Xuecui no longer have any elderly people at home, nor do they have many other relatives. During the Chinese New Year, they had some relatives and an old man at home, which felt quite good.

After Gongshu Ban came in, he wandered around and saw the two of them busy at work, so he came over to them.

"How can I help?" Gongshu asked with a smile.

"You can just rest nearby." Zhang Xuecui said while chopping the stuffing.

I don’t know how many people are coming to eat later.

In addition to these messy relatives, Xiaobai's classmates and the like are not around the family later, so doesn't it mean that I have to prepare New Year's Eve dinner for them?

They are all the treasures of the family. Now that I can't go home, I am here alone. Can't I play the role of a parent well?

The couple used their enthusiasm in selling dumplings in the early years and planned to make hundreds of dumplings.

Gongshu Ban looked at the side for a while and suddenly said: "Well, are you chopping meat? I can invent something... Just wait a moment!"

He ran out like a public servant, and when he came back, he was holding an ugly-looking iron lump, like a steering wheel welded to a funnel.

"I invented this thing, which can quickly turn meat into traps. Try it!" Gongshu Bang handed the strange-looking thing in his hand to Zhang Xuecui like a treasure, then stroked his beard and said: "I call this thing a twister.

Meat machine!”

He raised his head proudly as he spoke.

There is no way that boy named Mo could make such an invention.

Zhang Xuecui: "..."

My meat grinder actually looks much better than this one, and it seems to be easier to use...

Seeing Zhang Xuecui's expression was a bit strange, Gong Shuban slapped his forehead and said: "Look at me, wait a moment!"

Gongshu turned around and ran away again, carrying the weird-looking meat grinder.

Not long after, the bell rang at the door and Mo Zhai walked in.

In fact, Gu Ping is already very familiar with Mo Zhai and Gongshu Ban. Unlike Gongshu Ban, this Mo Zhai seems to be just a colleague of Gu Xiaobai, and the relationship is not that complicated.

Although he is a bit darker and uglier, he works very hard, works hard without complaining, and is loyal to Gu Xiaobai. Zhang Xuecui also has a very good impression of him.

It was the New Year this year, and they heard that Mo Zhai was not going home to celebrate the New Year, so Gu Ping and his wife invited him over.

"Sister-in-law, what are you busy with?" Mo Zhai stretched his head to look curiously.

"Oh, I'm chopping the dumpling fillings." Mo Zhai looked aside for a while and said, "How long will it take to chop the dumplings like this? Just wait..."

He turned around and ran away.

After a while, Mo Zhai ran back: "Sister-in-law, this is a small device I invented. I call it a meat mincer. You just need to put the meat in from here..."

Zhang Xuecui: "..."

How can we reinvent the wheel twice a day?

Before Mo Di finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door and Gongshu Ban came back.

Gongshu Ban raised the thing in his hand and said: "Girl, I added a motor to this thing. Now it is easy to use. You don't need to crank it by hand. I call this thing an electric meat grinder..."

Mo Zhai saw the electric meat grinder in Gongshu Ban's hand, and then looked at the meat grinder in his own hand, feeling a little unhappy.

Gongshu proudly shook the meat grinder in his hand in front of Mo Zhai, grinning widely.

You kid, ginger is still spicy when you are old.

(It’s late again today, so I’ll refresh it around 12:25.)

New Year's Eve, Severodvinsk.

The queue to enter the Dragon Palace on the Sea meandered for several kilometers. There were more than a dozen self-service code verification channels and manual verification channels, but the entry speed was still quite slow.
